The phone hangs up.

The office is silent.

After a while, Chatterbox curses out loud, "F-k."

Bambam can feel his heart beating out of his chest. He turns around, but sees Lisa with a sarcastic smile and not a hint of nervousness.

He looks at Jungkook in the front, who originally had his hands pressed onto the table, and he's now slowly standing straight with a calm look on his face.

The subtle smile at the corners of his mouth is very much like Lisa's.

That's right. These two are quite bold, so why would they be scared of T's threat, right?

Bambam unexpectedly starts to feel relieved.

Namjoon says to Jungkook, "This is a very serious matter. Come with me to report this to the police chief immediately."

But Jungkook looks down at his watch and says, "No time. Lisa and I need to go there right away." Namjoon thinks for a second, and nods, "Okay. Let's split up. I'll talk to the special police unit to see what's the best way to invade Mountain Wulin and rescue the hostages. You guys head out first. If we can invade, we'll take action right away. We must not let T lead us by the nose!"

Jungkook nods, turns around and looks at the four of them.

Chatterbox and Bambam say at the same time, "We're going too!" Cold Face also takes a step forward.

"No, you guys have to stay here. Research everything about this competition and its participants, as well as Mountain Wulin. Cold Face, work with the special unit team to come up with a plan."

"......Yes, Sir." "Okay." "I understand. "

Jungkook's gaze falls onto Lisa again.

Lisa stares into his rich dark brown eyes and smiles. She fetches the jacket hanging on the seat and puts it on, "Let's go."

A landrover with flashing lights speeds through the highway, passing one car after another.

Lisa is sitting quietly in the passenger seat. She adjusts the rear mirror, brushes her hair, and then takes out a wet napkin and wipes her face.

Jungkook watches her until she finishes and adjusts the rear mirror back in place.

"You have quite the time. You're not afraid of dying?"

"Of course I am." Lisa leans back on the luxurious seat and responds lazily, "But have you not heard of the saying? At critical times, a woman needs to have even more composure in order to grasp the situation. "

She is actually a bit nervous, but being nervous doesn't help anything. Therefore, she's trying her best to relax, so the way she talks also seems upbeat.

With his hands on the steering wheel, Jungkook reveals a smile with his eyes on the road.

"Mm, it makes sense."

It's afternoon. The sun pierces through the car windows. After driving for awhile, he glances at her.

Under the bright sunlight, her face seems even fairer white and refreshing. Her fringes do look tidier after she brushed them with her hands, revealing her eyebrows under them; her facial features are even more captivating. But her seating position is nowhere near being refined; she's leaning crookedly with her arms lowered on each side.

He taps his finger lightly on the steering wheel and shifts his eyes away.

Lisa's tablet makes a sound. She takes it out from her bag. She swipes the screen a few times and stares at it with full concentration, "Bambam has sent the information over!"
