Chapter 19

"Oh my god, you did not say that!" Luna bend over in laughter and Taehyung looked a shade of crimson embarrassed.

"Please stop laughing. I'm this close to regretting telling you all this." Taehyung said gesturing with his hands.

"Okay okay, no more laughing." Luna said trying to hold her laughter only for the both of them to burst out in laughter after a few seconds. The two of them had been holed up in the loft talking all day about their shared love for the musician and the several attempts of Taehyung to learn to play his masterpieces.

"I still can't believe that you told him off." Luna said with a chuckle.

"He called my fingers ugly. This is why they say you shouldn't meet your idols. They are bound to disappoint."

"I think your fingers are pretty. I-I mean they are not that bad." Luna somehow felt nervous for some reason as soon as she blurted that out.

"Thank you, I guess."

"I never thought I would see the day the great actor of Taehyung had a Gloss phase. Why do you hide away this side of yours? I bet your fans don't know how good of an artist you are and how terrible of a pianist you are."

"Well, I got a reputation to maintain, you see."

"Yeah, right. I still can't believe that you called the MIn Yoongi a strawberry shortcake. If he somehow starts killing people off, you are gonna top his list." Luna said chuckling.

"Wait."

"No, no, no. It can't be."

"How do you know for sure? He has quite the temper."

"You are not making any sense right now."

"Guys! Hey Luna! Jimin is here for you and he seems to be in a hurry." Namjoon's voice interrupted the conversation from below the loft. Taehyung and Luna stepped down the ladder carefully to see a smirking Namjoon at the bottom of the ladder.

"What were you both up to? Huh?" Namjoon nudged Taehyung who looked very uncomfortable with whatever Namjoon was intending. 

"Good lord! It's dark already? How long have we been up there?" Luna asked taking notice of the dark skies through the long windows in Taehyung's bedroom.

"It's past 9 now. Come on, let's see why Jimin is in a hurry." Taehyung lead Luna and Namjoon followed the two into the living hall where Jimin was pacing around like a crazy man.

"Hey Jimin."

"You guys are not gonna believe what I found out!" Jimin said dramatically.

"After Taehyung alleging that Min Yoongi could be our serial killer, nothing is going to surprise me anymore." Luna said while rolling her eyes.

"Wait, how did you guys know that?" Jimin asked taken aback.

"Don't tell me you are thinking the same too." Luna asked confounded.

"We have got a lead that Min Yoongi might be our serial killer." Jimin said with an exasperated sigh.

"Why do I have a feeling that you guys are not talking about a script right now?" 

"Gah! Who is this?" Jimin said swiftly pulling his gun and pointing it towards Namjoon.

"NO! Don't shoot. That's Taehyung's manager. Please put away the gun Jimin." Luna shrieked panicking.

"HE HAS A GUN?!" Taehyung let out in a shrilled voice with his eyes looking to pop out anytime and trying to hide behind Luna's frame.

"Oh good, for a second was wondering what to do with another body." Jimin said putting away his gun.

"Wait, what do you mean by another body? Did you kill someone?" Taehyung asked reeling back from the shock.

"You guys might have to see this for yourself and I guess the tall guy is tagging along, right?" Jimin said with a cold smile sending a shiver along the spines of the three souls in the room.

"He is so handsome, right?"

"Is he dead? He looks pretty dead to me."

"Taehyung, remind me again why we have Min Yoongi tied up in this strange place and what in freaking hell are we doing here? And while at it give me reasons why I shouldn't just hand over your lot to the Police." Namjoon asked after being brought into an underground lair that looked like a set for a horror movie. And that was how the four people sat around Hoseok's long table and revealed the secrets to Namjoon who seemed to be taking in everything but not forgetting to glare at the actor-turned-detective. 

"And then when I was coming to pick Luna, I got a call from Hoseok saying about how the places connected to this guy and I had just gone to observe him But his crazy ass was on me in like minutes. He put up a decent fight too and I had no other option but to knock him out and then I thought maybe we should get him here and question him you know." Jimin proceeded to take a sip from a glass of water after the hour-long presentation that they had put up to convince Namjoon to not call the cops and why they think Min Yoongi could be their killer.

"The murder locations and the timeline fits with Yoongi's tour dates and locations. At first, I thought it was a mere coincidence but once Luna had pointed out the official merch part, I put two and two together and alerted Jimin of a possibility. But I had no idea he would kidnap and bring him here.

"Do you even know how many laws you guys have broken?" Namjoon asked the lot.

"I had kept a count until 3 and then I stopped counting." Taehyung said but was quick to be shut up by Namjoon's glare.

"Tae, this is bad, like really bad. If it gets out, your reputation is going to be affected. You can forget being an actor after this gets out. And here I was thinking that the scandal with Luna was going to be the last." Namjoon said rubbing his temples. 

"Guys, I think he is waking up?" Luna called out to the detective squad at the grumbling sounds from the room where they had tied up Min Yoongi to a chair. They walked into the room in the apprehension of what could go down.

"Did you really have to stuff his mouth with those rags? He is a singer for god's sake!" Luna scolded the man who was no longer donning the devil's outfit.

"Hi" Hoseok quacked out only to earn a growl out of the tied-up man. Hoseok then pushed Luna forward to handle the conversation with the angry man.

 "Hey, I know this is not very appropriate. But I'm a really big fan, been a gloss since 2013. So far away and Seesaw are my favorites. And that composition you made for Gloss last year was just so beautiful. How do you make music like that? Hands down the best one ever. And the-" Luna went on while the said musician looked at her bewildered. Dealing with another crazy fan was not what the singer had imagined himself doing on a weekend.

"Luna" Taehyung called out to steer her back into the situation from fangirling over the man.

"Oh right, I am gonna take the rag off. Please don't be angry." Luna said and proceeded to take the rag off the man who was turning redder in anger by the second.

"You f*cking d**kwa*ds are gonna pay for this! @#@#$%%$%$&  %^&^&$&!"
