320.

When Jimin arrived at the police station ten minutes later, there was a huge crowd along with a dozen or so reporters. Their cameras flashed as soon as he exited the car. Jimin instructed his driver to park his car away from the ruckus and let Jungkook rest while he handled the things at the station.

They had two police headquarters. One here and one nearby the Kims. This headquarters governed all other purebred crime units. That was why it didn't make sense why Jungkook would be brought here.

There were rumors in the dark side of the community that the regular wolves who often used as scapegoats for bigger crimes were taken here, threatened to admit to the offense they never committed and locked in jail. It had set his wolf off and he hasn't calmed down since.

Thanks to Eui's timely call and his bodyguards' intervention he was able to save Jungkook before it was too late. His security team had efficiently handled the situation at the hospital, grabbing the security footage.

The moment his eyes raked over the red Lamborghini parked in the visitor's lot, he understood. His fury knew no bounds when he was wronged. The alpha was determined to see this through and find out why so many laws were broken in a matter of minutes.

It didn't make sense why Jungkook had to be given such aggressive treatment over a possession of black cards. It wasn't like he had any weapons in his possession.

The expansive halls stretched with high ceilings and glistening marble floors that gleamed under bright lights. Every higher official in this building knew how much the Park Group had donated while constructing this building as a good will.

The atmosphere inside was tense and one of controlled chaos with the cops bustling around with their work and conversations buzzed around them. A brisk officer rushed toward them to lead the way. Jimin followed him. His emotions were all over the place. He didn't even find time to update his dad over all the chaos.

"Oh, Jimin!" Taehyung waved at him as soon as he spotted him. He was talking on the phone outside in the lobby and pocketed his phone as soon as he saw him. "Been waiting for you for about five minutes." He glanced at his watch with a tight smile. "Couldn't start the show without you." He patted his shoulder once.

Behind him, in the conference room a dozen or so officials had assembled with a grim look on their faces. Jimin recognized most of them and nodded curtly, greeting Taehyung with a brief handshake before turning his attention to the officials.

"I see you have gathered everyone here," he noted. "I brought our legal team."

Taehyung nodded and gestured a hand inside. Attorney Kim and his two subordinates followed Jimin, followed by the three police officers in question. The tension in the room was so thick that it could be cut with a knife.

The room itself was big and spacious with a long, polished wooden table at the center surrounded by plush leather chairs. Floor to ceiling windows on one side of the wall offered the full city view while the other walls were filled with plaques and portraits. A projector screen hung from the ceiling.

Jimin greeted the officials curtly and they all took a seat in utmost silence with the three cops coming to stand in the room, facing their higher officials.

"I've already briefed them about the situation," Taehyung whispered to him. "Attorney Kim provided the remaining details over the phone call. They did some digging while we were waiting for you."

Jimin hummed with a curt nod.

"Explain," the police captain addressed the three police officers in question in a calm, controlled tone. His face stern and expression impassive.
