Returning to Beijing, Jungkook didn't intend to concern unrelated people or notify his family. After he landed, Jungkook and Lisa took a taxi to a motel close by the police station on the south of the city.

The noisy and crowded capital evening, brilliant sunset shines brightly over tall buildings. The motel is very humble white five-story building. The hallway covered with an old red carpet, the walls painted with the yellow color of the 1990s. The state-owned enterprise front desk staff is warm as always.

However, Jungkook didn't care about it, and Lisa wouldn't even more. They booked two rooms and then carried the luggage up the stairs and into their own room.

Jungkook took a shower, put on trousers and a loose t-shirt. He just turned on the computer, someone knocked at the door.

It's Lisa. Standing at the door holding the laptop. The pale face faintly said: "Are we working today?"

She just showered, changed to a loose T-shirt and casual pants. Her hair was still wet, sticking to the forehead; her eyes are abnormal black and clear like the eyes of a small animal.

Jungkook looked away from her face and turned to let her into the room.

The room was pathetically small in this 3 stars motel. There were only 2 wood chairs, there was Jungkook's luggage on one, and he was sitting on the other. Work is more important, Lisa didn't mind and sat down directly on the bed, then turned on the computer to continue to discuss with him.

In fact that they were in Beijing city and far away from Lin city, so they could only go over the case once again, to see if they can find any other clues. They discussed for a while without progress so they stopped. Lisa did not intend to go back to her room, continued to look over Jisoo's financial information. Jungkook leaned against the chair, looked at the night time out the window, and quietly drank his tea.

The room silent; the orange light created an old warm air. Just as Jungkook tilted his eyes, he immediately saw Lisa sitting on the pure white sheets. The loose T-shirt made her look smaller than usual, more delicate, faintly giving off the scent of the bath gel making the whole room seem to have a soft and clean atmosphere.

Just then, the phone rang and broke the silence in the room. Lisa raised her pair of dark eyes glancing over; Jungkook met her eyes for a second. He then picked up the phone, and turned away to look out the window.

Jimin was calling.

Before coming to Beijing, Jungkook phoned Jimin to tell him about the situation. Jimin also graduated from H University like Jisoo. He has wide connections, and with his help, the pace of the investigation was a lot more efficient.

Jimin is a clever man. He only called to tell Jungkook that he was taking him to the H University without asking any further questions. Then he grinned, implying to Jungkook to go out for a drink. Jungkook undoubtedly refused: "I don't have the time, all of you go ahead."

Jimin persisted: "Let's go out, *a night is worth a thousand gold. The people will forgive you even if you stop working so hard for one day.

"Scram." Jungkook said and hung up the phone.

Lisa didn't want to eavesdrop, but still heard their conversation. She was a little shocked to hear his playful tone telling someone to "scram". She raised her head once again to see Jungkook's tall body leaning against the chair. His handsome face was showing a lazy smile, a completely different person from the usually stern faced Jungkook.

So this was the appearance he had in his private life. Lisa lowered her head, and continued to work. Who would have thought a few minutes later, coming from downstairs were the sounds of a car engine and car horn. The small motel instantly became noisy within seconds.
