Chapter 10: Answers

A few days after Jinyoung and Yugyeom caught Lee Manseok, Jinyoung was driving to out hideout again. He had picked Chan and Felix up from school and dropped them off at home with Mark, who had the day off.

Once he was inside he threw his jacket onto a chair in the kitchen before walking into the living room.

"How nice to see you again," Lee said, his voice raspier than usual.

Jinyoung unscrewed the cap on the water bottle and gave some to Lee before crouching down in front of the man.

"Do you know who wanted you to find two boys?"

Manseok shook his head roughly.

"Do you know who wanted you to find two boys?"

He shook his head once again.

"It seems like you want to do this the hard way." Jinyoung sighed before taking out a pocket knife and flipping the blade out.

Lee's eyes widened at the sight of the knife.

"Do you know who wanted you to find two boys?"

The other man gulped and sweat was starting to form on his forehead. "Please don't do this," he begged.

Jinyoung only looked at him with an emotionless expression. "Only if you tell me what I want to hear."

He shook his head yet again and this made Jinyoung sigh for like the twentieth time in the span of ten minutes.

"Then you must know that everything that might happen is your own fault, tigh?"

The sound of fabric being ripped filled the quiet room as he made a hole under the trapped man's shoulder and throat area.

Lee started squirming in his seat as Jinyoung lightly pressed the blade to his skin. He squirmed even more when Jinyoung put even more pressure on the blade, enough pressure to break the skin and draw blood.

"Who told you to find those kids?" Jinyoung growled as he put a little more pressure on the knife.

Lee let out a pained gasp, his eyes darting around the room. "He's going to kill me if I tell you."

Jinyoung stood up and walked around the chair. "You're right, you will be killed and killed quickly. But would you rather have a quick and painless death or a slow and painful one?"

He was now standing behind him. "The choice is up to you, but because of how much of an insect you are, you'll probably live. Ghough I can assure you, a death by hands will take a couple of days. The pain you'll feel will be enough to make you bite off that worthless tongue of yours without feeling a thing."

The blade found it's way to the man's throat. He tensed up and Jinyoung could almost feel the erratic beating of his heart through his skin.

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you," he exclaimed.

Jinyoung had a ghost smile as he took the knife from his throat and fetched a chair before sitting down across from Manseok.

"Who gave you the order?"

"His, his... his name is Hyeonseok." Lee stumbled over his words, fear was evident in his words and Jinyoung knew that whoever hired him must be a man with power.

"Hyeonseok?" Jinyoung tilted his head, his gaze burning right through Lee.

"Bang. Bang Hyeonseok."

"So you are saying that Bang Hyunseok paid you for it?"

Lee nodded. Jinyoung studied the other man's face. Sweat was practically pouring from his skin, his eyes flicked back and forth between Jinyoung, the windows and the exit.
