Lost Memories | A Liskook Adaptation

Chapter 132: I Want to Kill Part 1

Lalisa follows Jungkook back to the scene of the explosion and to the side of the window. It's got a big hole with not much left; only a bit of the curtain is still stuck on the blackened wall. Jungkook reaches out his hand with black gloves on. He touches the edge of the big hole and turns to her, "Can you see anything?"

His voice is light and emotionless, carrying a calming tone. Lalisa lifts her slightly red eyes and looks around. She says without certainty, "The curtains were open?"

She was too emotional at the time, but now that she thinks about it, she vaguely remembers that there was always light shining through the room that Taehyung was in. It was completely different from the dark room that Bambam was in.

Jungkook nods. He knocks on the window frame lightly looking at the buildings across. The sun is shining brightly; many of the buildings' windows are reflecting the light from the sun, blinding their eyes right now.

"And the traffic lights," he says.

Lalisa is stunned slightly. Her gaze turns serious, "Yes, and the traffic lights."

A decision of life and death, at a time of difficulty, yet they were met with a red light that would not turn green, preventing them from turning right. Thinking about it more carefully now, the red light was abnormally long. They noticed it at the time and if they really wanted to, they could have insisted on making the turn and force the pedestrian to make way for them.

But their opponent is clearly very good at grasping other people's minds. In that kind of situation, slight differences in the surroundings can sway one's mind, prompting them to make the hard decision and choose to save Bambam.

"The one they wanted to kill from the start may have been Taehyung," Jungkook turns around and looks at her, "but why?"

"It means that Taehyung deserves to die more," Lalisa answers swiftly.

"Why does Taehyung deserve to die more?" Jungkook asks.

Lalisa doesn't answer.

They look directly into each other's eyes. Jungkook takes off his gloves, grabs her hand, squeezes it a little, turns around to look outside of the window, and tilts his chin up slightly, "That building."

Lalisa looks at the tall building not far away. She thinks for a moment and her eyes gleam, "You're not suspecting that A was watching Taehyung from that building, are you?"

"Mm. There's a paradox here, and only your criminal psychology can explain it."

Lalisa nods, "Opening the curtains was completely unnecessary. Bambam's room didn't have its windows opened. If A wanted to kill Taehyung and always loved watching the moment when his victims die, he would definitely not care about Bambam's side of things. It's possible that at the time, he was hiding in a safe and convenient place to watch over this place. He used a telescope to watch Taehyung. Therefore, the windows in this room were open and so were the curtains. This way, it can give him a good view. And that building over there is the best spot."

She pauses and then realizes something, "No wonder the bomb still exploded after it was removed. Everybody thought that was an accident, but thinking about it now, it might be A's doing. He's a person who admits defeat. He probably wouldn't go back on his word and kill Taehyung after watching him escape, but he probably felt upset and detonated the bomb remotely to express his anger."

"I think so too," Jungkook says. He reaches out his hand to hold her shoulder and guides her out of the room, "There's a criminal investigation team sent to examine the place, so let's go take a look."
