Chapter 9

Three days later

In a dimly lit room, the projector projected a dangerously handsome face on the white board.

"Kim Taehyung. " Jimin points the laser beam at him. "The mastermind behind the kidnapping of L/N Y/N, killing of Ryu Tae Oh and attack on Min Yoongi. Smart enough to send a different person for distraction, although, not enough to erase the CCTV records. "

An officer raises his hand. "Sir, what if he purposely left them untouched? "

"Good question. We need to know the motive behind his actions to conclude that. From what the witnesses have testified, he started with disguising himself as a homosexual man who was dumped by his boyfriend and was left homeless. While the victim was looking for a roommate, he happened to appear there but was rejected. "

Jimin slams a file on the table and bends over, placing his hands on either sides.

"He injected himself with a drug and discarded the materials in a nearby dustbin. The garbage collector saw it and brought it to the station. " He shows the samples. "The drug tends to have an effect that makes it seem like an overdose. You might actually die if you don't take its antidote before the drug itself. The doctor who treated him was bribed too. The victim pitied his condition and took him in. What does this say to you? "

"He was obsessed with her. " Another officer says.

"Bingo. After tracking down his whereabouts and belongings, it seems that he's a fairly rich man. He owns a condominium and a Ferrari, invested in the shares of X building, and inherited the rest from his grandfather. What's more interesting, is that there were pictures of the victim neatly displayed on his wall. He never had any house maid and would rarely come out of his condo. "

The door opens and Jimin's team member walks in.

"Take a look at this. " He passes a yellow file to him. It had the details about the murder of a waiter at a nearby cafe. The pictures of the message written on the wall was stuck in the center of the report.

"Let me in? " Jimin asks, visibly confused.

"And according to the CCTVs, the victim was present that day. Her friend was the first to discover the body. "

Jimin clicks a picture of the message, reminding himself to show it Hayeon later. He wanted to see if this was connected to your case.

"This is all we have for now. " He says in a commanding tone. "Gather information from the people he interacted with. You are dismissed. "

He turns to his team member and says, "I have to go somewhere. Call me if you find more details. "

"Sure. "

Kim Taehyung was a big player. Being a chaebol isn't easy. So how did he manage to keep himself hidden?

So many questions. But only one had the answer to it.

~°•°~

Taehyung was chopping some woods for today's dinner while you were watching him.

"Why are we on an island? " You ask, bored out of your mind.

"Because-" he groans as he hits the center of a wood and splits it. "This belongs to me. Or should I say, us now? " He winks.

"Ass. " You mutter and fan yourself.

It was too hot. Taehyung stops and throws the axe down, proceeds to remove his shirt, exposing his bare torso, and resumes again.
