The dorm

Special update for wond3rlandd__ such an amazing writer nd person plz read their works especially In Ivy's Grasp. It's a rollercoaster of events nd very exciting to read. Now on with the story.

Jimin and Jungkook arrived at the dorm. The police had turned the place upside down in their investigation, making it look messier than usual.

Jungkook shivered. "I don't see how he could have done it......he wasn't even in the car with us!"

"Don't focus on how he did it, Jimin said. "We know he didn't. We need to see how the police could piece together a story. So start looking."

The two began searching through Taehyung's things. Jungkook started with the bag by the door, and looked inside. There were two sets of clothes, some food from the pantry, things like his toothbrush and facial cleaning products from the bathroom, and the ₩235464 zipped up in a pocket.

"Hyung, wasn't this in the drawer?"

Jimin  crawled out from under the bunk and looked at the money in his hand. "Did the officer say it was?"

Jungkook scrunched up his nose. "I thought he did...but I could be wrong. I was distracted."

Jimin nodded his head in understanding and continued his search. Jungkook put the money back in it's place and zipped up the bag. "It's sad to think...Tae possibly wanted us to leave."

"Taehyung is better than that. We both know, and so do the others, though they won't admit it."

"Yeah..but still..." Jungkook couldn't shake the odd feeling this gave him. They were missing something, but what?

Suddenly Jimin gasped. He retreated from under the bed and stood facing Jungkook. "What is it?" Jungkook asked, watching Jimin's ghost form flicker a little.

He slowly lifted his hands. He was holding three books. Two were on acting. Another had a faint title, but the cover was enough.

Jungkook carefully took the book away and stared at it. The cover was an illustration of a car driving off a cliff in a thunder storm. He dropped it.

"Jungkook." Jimin dropped the books he was holding and embraced the younger boy.

"Those books," Jungkook whispered. "Yoongi was right."

"Don't say that!" Jimin cupped Jungkook's face in his hand making the younger look at him. "Tae enjoyed theater, so it makes sense that he was studying it. Look, they aren't even his. They belong to the library."

"What about the other one?"

For that Jimin had no answer. He hadn't seen a library sticker on the back of it, which meant that Taehyung had owned the book. The book was his. Bought with his own money including the possibility that he might have bought it with murderous intentions.

"I will ask Taehyung about this," He said after a few seconds of silence. "I will try until I can be heard. I'll get him to notice me and answer your question about the books."

"No! I don't need an explanation!" Jungkoook pushed himself away from Jimin. "I saw those books with my own eyes. I should have known from his weird personality that it was fake. I was just so naive...when he said he wanted to be my friend...I wanted to believe him. He was just playing everyone."

"Jeon Jungkook you listen to me!" Jimin half yelled. "I refuse to believe this nonsense! Everything was an accident!"

"You're the one talking nonsense! He just coincidentally happened to have a book where people die from driving off a cliff, and then his friends died the same way? What about the money? Or the photographs and the contract? Or all of it?"

"The contract!" Jimin gripped Jungkook's shoulders. "I need to find the contract!"

Jungkook elbowed his way out and stormed off, yelling over his shoulder "Joon hyung was right! And so was Yoongi hyung! We can't base any of our doubts on Taehyung cause we never really knew him."

Then he was gone.
