"What the fuck Jungkook?! He had seen you?!" Yoongi blurted out, concern written all over his face.

This was the older's initial reaction after hearing what had been said by the assassin.

The ravenette rolled his eyes. "He didn't. That fucker is bluffing." He said in a calm voice.

Yoongi looked at him, scrutinizing his face. "Are you fucking sure? 'cause if he saw you, we better kill him this instant before he could rat us out."

Jungkook seriously stared at his partner. "Trust me Yoongi. If he had seen my face during the encounter in the café, I wouldn't have let him be taken by the police and killed him instantly right there and then."

There was a moment of silence with Yoongi just staring at him. After a while, the older nodded his head, convinced by his words. He knew Jungkook too well and he could tell if he's lying or not.

"Okay, fine. So he's just saying that to fool that officer?" Yoongi asked.

Jungkook nodded his head. "Probably. In that way, he could easily make that Namjoon guy believe him and agree to his terms. Hitting two birds with one stone, right?"

"That makes sense." Yoongi scratched his temple, subtly nodding his head in agreement.

"Anyway, I'll continue to monitor this fucker to find out where he's hiding those pictures he'd been talking about. I'll let you know if something comes up." Yoongi tapped Jungkook by his shoulder.

"Okay." Jungkook nodded his head. He was about to head out when Yoongi called him once more.

"By the way, Kook." Yoongi uttered, stopping him on his tracks. "I'll track down his hideout so we could get those pictures before the police. As of now, I'm having a feeling the client already knows about the assassin being taken by the police."

The ravenette agreed. "That's what I thought too. We should get it before any of them could."

Yoongi nodded his head. "Good. I'll notify you as soon as possible."

Jungkook smiled. "Thanks hyung." He stepped once more, but once again halted by Yoongi's voice.

"Jungkook, why?" Yoongi inquired, his eyes looking at the ravenette who looked confused at the sudden question.

"Why what?" He asked, brows knotted.

Yoongi shrugged his shoulders. "I'm just suddenly curious. Why are you concerning yourself too much about that doctor?" He asked in a serious voice.

The question suddenly made Jungkook freeze. He averted his gaze as he cleared his throat before answering.

"Well, I'm in it for the money. That doctor will double the price if we could.. you know.. keep him safe." He said, shrugging his shoulders.

He wasn't aware of the grin in the older's face as he said those words.

"Oh yeah? Money, huh?" Yoongi nodded his head, unconvinced.

The ravenette looked at him, hearing the laughter in his voice. "Yeah. This is just plain business, hyung. What else could it be?" He uttered in serious voice.

"You tell me. What else could it be, Jungkook?" Yoongi asked, emphasizing every word. "Is it really money, or is it something more?"

Jungkook looked away, hand gripping the knob firmly. Yoongi's words stir something deep within him.

And it's making him afraid.

"That's all there is, hyung." He muttered under his breath.

Yoongi just raised his hands in the air, still unconvinced but just let the matter go.
