As fit and healthy as a lot of us can be, climbing up the stairs was tiresome just after three flights. As soon as we reached the fifth floor, we stopped to take a breather. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOjdE6Xv3p

"Who am I kidding?" said Zoey as she leaned upon the stair rail. "I’m so tired." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85EQIJmJKP

"Do we really have to go all the way to the manager’s office?" Jisoo asked. "Wasn’t Lee making her way down when we called her?" 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhPe5pyRx1
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVyCxVl9P9
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEYpKspByp
"She was," I answered. "If you ask me, we can start looking on this floor, or we can split." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYbiwVKTUD
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cS4qDegtQ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswNjIAgqhm
"I say we stick together," said Seunghoon. "I’ve a feeling taking Johnny down will need some team effort." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYyMlTYROP
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2rF4tV3K8
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgLtp35B3Z
"Spoken like you’re leading the SWAT team," Mino teased. "Splitting up might be easier, but we’re only a few of us, so we need to stick together." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IQEO5xwsG
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5xPdk3Pzb
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzB669dWtB

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtqybq2SX2
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1pQAoaLKY
We heard footsteps coming from upstairs. We looked at each other before darting down the hall, to hide round a corner. Seunghoon who was close, took a peek. The footsteps grew louder. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG44Z2fk2d6
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFWyetFfMH
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tetl7riGN
"Can it be Johnny?" Zoey asked. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3bsKeUV6s
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hlbVhlmwC
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqvX8chcDj
"I doubt it," Mino whispered who leaned against the wall next to her. "That sounds like a lot of steps." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOosBfGnOdu
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4tbY0OEDi
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoUxHdzx9F

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHCnLzP6wn
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bY1yqiN72
We all became silent, and a lot of us held our breaths. The sound of footsteps became heavier. We could tell it’s the security guards. We were lucky they didn’t stop on the floor we are on as they continued down the stairs. As the sound of their footsteps grew fainter, we slowly started to relax. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaNm8kiID7
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HMuL69Yfa
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wysqN0Hm6

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhxiSAognF
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsITRAT2Wq
"Maybe you can call her again," Seunghoon suggested. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VjOJoDDk4
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufhle4ZtpA
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBEXG93Hv9
"Even if we do, and Johnny does have her, he'll know we’re coming for him," said Mino. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqd0UKhsHY
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRMlZnnzRR
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppDlJd9klc

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTKrlxn0Vq
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZU6Cs2w1U
"I think we call anyway," said Zoey. "He obviously knows that the only way to draw us out is if he has Lee." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbzfUdxzaN
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CKKwEmsJ8
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3DNRkTQbq
"Or he might call us instead," said Jisoo. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6b7o2atmz
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UolAnbwZ9
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2jcmXmCFt
"Well, he would've called first if he wanted to draw us out," I said as I held my phone in my hand. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8I7WUuICFW
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGP8Isubgl
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJQbDzcuzI
"So what should we do?" Mino asked. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzNvn2PEwq
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuKuCPRwsw
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75YGnWU6Z6
I put my phone back in the pocket. "We just have to look for her the old-fashioned way," I answered. "If we do call, he'll be expecting us and who knows what he might do." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZCAoqnlMO
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqO3vRPQ7PW
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFM5lYF098e
"So you want to catch him off guard?" Jisoo asked. "Will that even work?" 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYr0pmra7Nr
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIIfPbH22l
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9atiG3Be2
"It will be bad for us if we call. That way he will know we're agitated." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXFTLvVA9a
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeesaFU426B
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjZo6ojd45
"I like your thinking," said Zoey. "But then that means, we've to work quickly and find them." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoCT38WaAh
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstIz1O0Umb
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgPbRbe2pU

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaqliGpj59
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7zDUTNFLl
"What’s on this floor anyway?" I couldn't help but ask as I felt like the place is pretty much empty. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnW8T70mjet
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQYo9kyePd
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIFG2YvKe8
"There are rooms that were once used for practice till they moved them downstairs. They plan to renovate and make offices here," said Mino. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuS4YaTXlk
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtKRW49PlN
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcl2U7vsWXH
"Is this the only floor where renovations are taking place?" I stood in the middle of the hall to take a good look beyond. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92NnWJyLgE
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuah0cdJt0
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqRYEysVXL

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXe8hc4N4v
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JGcNZ2t6U
"This feels like the perfect place for Johnny to keep Lee. The place is quiet, and it’s the only place where there’s nobody around." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHVzv9WWxw
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oUWh3FewK
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMudUElCtA
"Well, the bodyguards should’ve thought of that before bypassing this floor," said Zoey. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueTa5LFdnm
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRyoOqGXSD
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDW6rXbtByv
"Maybe they did, and they couldn’t find anything to convince them that someone could be hiding here," said Jisoo. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JU2eZ7z8d
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvMlISzNgN
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3z2buySJv
"Well, let's see if we can find something," said Seunghoon. "But the rooms should be empty." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7nFlTu1cw
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrzBWLEB8e
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgSy1aOcEg
As we were about to make our way down the hall, I stopped. I hear something. Mino who went ahead of me, noticed and stopped also. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvF4iqhezlI
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OA9q79ccw
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqDA0VfyQG
"Hey, are you okay?" he asked. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkeGiOUtwt
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhSHoIx8Yc
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Xw6mtpkUG
"Everyone, hide," I said quietly. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bPCgaN3vu
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kG0N8zvQy
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QATUi4g1Q
"What? Why?" Zoey asked, turning to look at me. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChlRCC2Zs1
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Itngo76bc
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2OI9ONvEl
"Someone’s coming," I answered. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYvawrPn4f
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpMNFig6jY
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RWf7NR4V2
We all paused. We could hear footsteps coming up the stairs. Likewise, we tiptoed quietly down to the first door down the hall. Seunghoon who is the first to reach it, opened the door and in a line, we all entered the dark room. The place smelt of dust and the air is stuffy. The windows haven’t been open for a while. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFqlIzaANx
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxO8YHlsx71
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4v3Sxf3SJ
Seunghoon is the last to enter and closes the door behind him. We’re almost in the dark, but light came in through the translucent glass window on the door. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CKKvn6ELy
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68lBf4yVzK
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8kGSxvq3H
"Can we turn on the lights?" Jisoo asked in a whisper. "It’s dark in here." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyTg91AZ6m
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCLUjch60h
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUi9zGjmuu
"We can’t," said Seunghoon. "There’s a translucent glass window on the door. If we turn on the lights, the person down the hall will tell someone is in here." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qPHHgKyAA
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0ZinroPdj
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnmjsTjRL2
"Ssh," said Mino. "Do you hear that? The person is coming." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyaJNSlfky
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡne2RLodmqy
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRx0fnDFm0
We all kept quiet. Who could it be? Could it be Johnny? What if it’s one of the guards? If it’s the latter, we'll be in big trouble and will be escorted back to the studio. If it’s Johnny, we need to be careful. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PfR8eaZ1Y
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2pv7rEQzf
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtuvonS9Cr
Seunghoon slowly opened the door so as not to make a sound. The rest of us stood there, waiting for confirmation if the person out there is a threat. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCKdVNV51e
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNq8DIQ2TF1
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYfLTujkxX
We hear footsteps come closer, and I see the person through the glass, bypassing the door. I turn to look at Seunghoon to see any reaction on his face. Before I ask, he already made a move by drawing the door wide open and stepping into the hall. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVievhWqzMX
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP93Ojuxs34
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVaziQZJEm
"Hyung?" Seunghoon called out. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuany6PdVb9
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ102T6Fxh8I
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCpsEriZWH
"Goodness, Seunghoon get back here!" Zoey whispered to him. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqzbUelrJ2
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3X0jrki93x
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsO2EAPoE5

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiHO5iov9s
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNJIjDo4eu
"Don’t worry, guys, it’s GD," Seunghoon came back into the room to address us. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQQHOstEQw
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FRkuCKer6
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaC40axrnY

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiWftfsdB0
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIluBYkk5X
"Oh, oppa," said Jennie stepping out of the room to join Seunghoon in the hall. "How did you find yourself here?" 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9HttCwz3l
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsT4y2H5ZdY
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zCUV9Yf0T
Mino, Zoey and I also stepped out of the room. G-Dragon stood there in a red fresh paint jacket with a black jumpsuit and a white shirt on. He’s just as surprised to see us. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdKgOHKpGv
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vKnSPnDwW
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDft8i9vBqV
"What are you all doing here?" GD asked. "Aren’t you supposed to be recording in the studio?" 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFW4Z8Abjj
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisZC0wAsWf
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VYf6Tptl6
"Well, to answer your first question, we’re out here trying to look for Johnny," said Zoey, folding her arms. "For the second one, we finished recording the song." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCvllf1jS9
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNHDMFbnRZ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ko0WdPGbS
"Oh, that’s good to hear. But I thought you were kept under guard." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0VWoOqbo6
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFn1IfG0rM
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsytthLUUE

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN60wnxecNv
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRgmzyOOFN
"We think Johnny has Lee," I added. "She never came back to the studio. When we called, she said she ran into him, and she sounded like she was running away." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaa6dCi4pU
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uCllOCjmH
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oJmEUBd4Z
"That’s not good," said GD. "I also came up here to try and find him." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJh8A74Jon
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggxtJ2GD35
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIMAlbmUmu
"Really?" Zoey asked, raising an eyebrow. "How can we be so sure that you're looking for him?" 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOp5twNZBGN
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4ysp9LVQS
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTQUmbZ9HU
G-Dragon and so did the rest of us turn to look at her, wondering why she could ask such a question. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrfvnw4hDU
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡig2tGAzgYC
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj83a0coisD
"Don’t get me wrong, guys," said Zoey as she noticed the looks, "but didn’t GD bring Johnny here in the first place? So how can we tell you aren’t just going to lead us into a trap?" 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqB2SKPg2Rj
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79ScICvWsY
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr91E0BClp5
"And why would I do that?" GD asked, not believing the words coming out of Zoey’s mouth. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJw9MFhUfBB
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4faEKRVXSh
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyzR0AkYiy

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvajIQ2YWF
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAiKhjKk49
"Yeah, right. We warned you about him, but you didn’t listen to us, did you?" 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6pKRYuW4T
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGEVkXK9tk
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9Uc3Up8gA
"Zoey, enough," I intervened. "Telling him that we told him so right now isn’t going to help us find Lee." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHB7nvDTL8V
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rPUdByh1x

"I didn’t know he was going to pull off something like this," G-Dragon defended himself. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsiLtoreCc
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCGMlJaGZU
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtkNOUZ1Y7
"Wasn’t the crowd he drew towards us last night evident enough that Johnny is crazy? Yet you brought him here on the grounds that you two are friends." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eICJJeG1r
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwuglQn2U6
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxY3dRvjKa
"Zoey, calm down," said Mino as he came and held her shoulders. "GD never knew Johnny would take things too far. We should listen to Sam and find Lee first." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOjfgxHYpn
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMzOCcI7lm
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrclVrtMDWU
"Fine," said Zoey. "But after we find Lee and Johnny should at least be arrested, I’ll make sure to claw your face out, GD." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVqaIJNdvJ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0QSmvUmkx
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX02WrTukDv
"Won’t that also get you arrested?" Jisoo asked. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5qYjAvbHS
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBOEvFunEd
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xWlmPBrYd

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusucoCZy6j
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡii4gLUJW7F
"With that on stand-by, what are you doing here GD?" I asked, turning to look at him. "Did Johnny communicate with you?" 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQu88cmOaKk
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWeDa5lK1h
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7dEgqGGDW
"No, he hasn’t," he answered. "I tried calling him a few times, and he hasn’t replied. I thought of looking for him, but it's been difficult since the guards don’t want anyone wandering around. I managed to get away as I was held in the lobby. Likewise, I thought of coming to this floor, since the rooms aren’t being used." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78CLTMVqTV
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8GO0DJ0ja
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6v5sOlteTi

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHx8fCY8p4q
"Well, they’re definitely not in this one," said Zoey as she looked at the door of the room we were hiding in. She started her way down the hall, bypassing G-Dragon. I noticed the look she gave him. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgQQ0qpyhw
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRkPgcbpkm
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NHHZKTN5O

GD and I join the search. Seunghoon and Jisoo had already entered one room. We approached the open door, and the lights were on. There isn’t much in the room. There were a few things lying around and furniture that had been covered with white cloths to prevent the dust settling on it. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSVPmx8Pbu
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwGHgAw16U
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF58DNncCEg
GD went ahead, and I followed him to the next room where there’s Mino and Zoey. There were boxes and furniture covered in cloths all around. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KAJSxr9qe

GD went on ahead, opened the door and turned the lights on. He stood there as he looked, and I joined him. There’s nothing much to see with only two carton boxes and pieces of paper on the floor. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUahilal8N
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzlpgrHOup
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmywZCEUu16
"Nothing, here," he said as he slowly started to close the door. Then I caught a glimpse of something through the corner of my eye. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfBnB9gd2f
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7B9tSiiRm3
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6ZS5yCKTX
"Hey, wait," I said as I also held the door to stop GD from closing it. I draw it wide open and look inside the room. My attention is drawn towards the two large carton boxes. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VbRh3lzVP
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmGUmFYmgH

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2H1CytN7u
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVKAVxMWl6
The box did move. My eyes widened, and I turn to look at GD, whose mouth is agape. He saw it too. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSlAhdYib5
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsntnXaIWm
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmG0wvvznp

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUjWCrsWgw
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJLFhNTedy
Before I could go any further, I felt G-Dragon take hold of my hand. I stop and turn to look at him. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDx5o1ML0D
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlg6gVBAQR
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnJzt77M1c

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8YE7x75jN
I nodded. I turn towards the box in the room and the both of us slowly approach it. We pause at the same time when the box moved again. We continue our approach and as soon as we’re close, I lean forward and find that the top of the box is covered. The box gently shook again. I draw out my hand to uncover the box but G-Dragon is quick to grab it to stop me from doing so. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3x3e0geOrp

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafkhnkvQRH
A soft little ‘meow’ came from inside the box. I gave a mocking look at G-Dragon, and he scratched the back of his head, embarrassed. I went on to open the box and inside it is a small, black, furry kitten. It looked up at us with its cute, sparkling green eyes and meowed again. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡER6IrDuX83
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFmJnKk5ju
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5OJQgpytC
"If I know Johnny, he wouldn’t leave a cat in here to try and scare us," I said. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaGSJ4HAPx
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gJG8e8fr9
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07dl4GCycQ
I bent over to get it out of the box. At first, it backed away into a corner and I knew I had to let it trust me first. I gently let my palm touch the top of its head and started to pet it. Soon enough, it purred and rubbed its ears around my hand. I soon brought in my other hand and lifted it out of the box. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6MMFEPzQg

"Hey, guys, have you found….?" Jisoo appeared through the door and as soon as she saw the kitten in my hands, she got excited and quickly came towards us. Mino also came in and had a confused look, wondering why Jisoo reacted that way. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZSeybYXMi
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGfys1G4OU
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVU4gsl1Ow
"What a cute little kitty," Jisoo said with so much excitement as she gently scratched the kitten’s head. "Where did you find it?" 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PfGISpRC1
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBNmIomfhf
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhox31KALIX

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mFbHuw96Q
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQsEsyKaLj
She ran past Mino, almost knocking him over for someone who is smaller than he. Seunghoon also appeared at the door, chuckling. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lxcs4G8HW
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWXLNgci73

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTYKWbdBZ6
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgAKLBiHQp
I gave Zoey the kitten, and it didn’t resist. Zoey and Jisoo continued to admire it as the kitten looked back at them, unaware of the attention it’s gained. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnecNJAZMy
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXljivobJ3g

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YERpIUX7D
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FBOyYTlxk
"I agree," said Zoey, as she lifted it to take a better look at it like it's a precious gem. "Just look at it. It's so cute. It will be a crime to leave it here all alone." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1UR0kYqs6
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyJsdVXBA7

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGh6nxpjQZC

The four of us with the kitten in my arms left the room and continued our search. We looked in every room and no luck so far. We are left to search on the other side of the floor. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6PK5XRqig
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WeEsDzYJq
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡButKqxUpXN
We made a turn going to the left and Seunghoon who led the way, stopped in his tracks. Even when I'm not close to him, I could tell his body has grown tense. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5MpCPZJcl
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUFrFsATHw

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPPBOfwJLZ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPNVTHjX0d

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4suGqIEAd
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjduJWpwY5
"Isn't that the guard?" Seunghoon asked. He quickly made his way towards him and the rest of us followed. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjhvSG46pk
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWikJm2Jnhq
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlx7Ew0bFKj

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJtaLXfP19
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEmPIK3NOA

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFklRoxniC
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjC4RB0KXQd
"Goodness," said the guard as he scratched his head. "I was coming down the stairs with her. I told her to go back to the studio on her own since the other guards had called for me. As I was climbing up, Johnny appeared on one of the floors and ran past me. I tried to stop him, but then I lost my footing and fell a couple of stairs. I'm afraid I might have twisted my ankle. Likewise, I told Lee to run as soon as Johnny showed up." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfNdFcBIqs

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOtefFWkJi
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzi15NXAZX

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRGrvasTcq

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhpFi9wMFW
"We found Johnny above the stairs on our way down," said the guard. "He might have chased her up to this floor, I’m not so sure. But I couldn't move quickly because of my twisted ankle." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuOfKXVu4a
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWJ32fPvsu

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdixBI4OLN
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpscuFC8YSG

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuBpFDvTP8
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiJuYbKQWF
"That’s why we’re in a group," said Zoey. Jisoo agreed with her. "And besides, Sam and I have dealt with him before." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHm3Fjzd930
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3AWI15xiR
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFtUepWDRQ
The guard shook his head, realizing that talking us out of it is pointless. "Fine." He dug into his pocket and removed a black walkie-talkie. "Does anyone know how to use this?" 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zzjyQ1G6p
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUfhHICrvD

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxK27WEZUZh
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUFpjlP9AW
"No, but if someone like Johnny wants to go around unnoticed between floors, that stairway is the best way. They are usually locked and only opened during emergencies. There’s a storeroom in the underground basement. He might be hiding there." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMto8TaBh73

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCdobQxII7

As soon as Zoey opened the door, GD’s phone soon started to ring. We all paused to look at him. He took his phone out of his pocket, and his eyes widened with surprise when he looked at it. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKPyWQ82z1

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIE313xvFBP
"He shouldn’t know that we’re out here looking for him." I answered. "GD, quick, answer it." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPDf5LgM6h
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YsSyVZXSk
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXhZ3TnqmT
GD slid the call button to the right and put the phone to his ear. "Johnny, hey? Where are you?" he asked. "I’ve been waiting in the lobby." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuV4N4nlnYj
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8mTqbCDhH
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnz2eiRe7V
We could Johnny loud and clear as he responded: "I’m in the underground basement. I thought I would join you in the car park outside." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBEOuwc8Mb
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTims1REmXA
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7rCz0HLwT
"You’re in the basement? How did you get there? The whole place is on lockdown. They say someone cut the power and the guards are looking for whoever is responsible." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUMGZZJJgB
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvORti4KDI
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ws3LmUvHs

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovkf5SJMk1
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jmK5xWpjJ
Zoey rolled her eyes and I prayed she wasn’t going to mutter out something stupid, but she didn’t. I wish I could blow out a sigh of relief, but that will only draw Johnny’s attention. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡty7G6oYyWT
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNeaE2lbG1
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7TXRHSb72
"Are you still down there?" GD asked. "I can come join you, and we can walk to the car park outside. That’s if the guards will allow us to pass through." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzYQyR6asd
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFiEHUvCa4

GD cut the call and looked at each one of us. "There you have it," he said. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMoL7yAu8m
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsE4Lcthjv
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWk49cxsGeV

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxp2HpxZH6
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wrkSor8Ug
"It’s not that simple," I said. "Why give GD a call all of a sudden and plans on leaving? He must be up to something." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aiZC7NA4b
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPumoHRB7kr
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfmwTjuV2u
"We just have to be careful on how we’re going to do this," said Mino. "Do you think we should also inform the guards?" 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdBad1WrOQ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUeiDnWoHQ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb20BfkW6ti

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAkwJubMAd

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVehR0z98g
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBcZ1AbMra

Zoey turned towards the emergency exit door and drew it open. She made her way first down the stairs with Jisoo and me following behind her. Mino and G-Dragon were last, with G-Dragon closing the door behind him. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBy3m5tykJL
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlE3TC0HGfM
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtIfzDHOsw
We make our way down the stairs, and we were much quicker this time. Before we reached the ground floor, I stopped everyone. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVuDOpaHbc
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSMe5fVflH
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKdRa03pzn

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4P7d9lCXC

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZSuCEksxm
"I’ve been down there a lot, so we can try to move around while G-Dragon keeps Johnny distracted," said Mino. "If we do find Lee, we can help her." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4wSFMNXIN
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SWUzklRy1
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGt6FOvEA3

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQc3LSausd
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AArBTIwpq
"Maybe we don’t have to," said Jisoo. "Once we have Lee, then we can call the guards to come to the basement." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtY2X6UuueZ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoylSF0Zg2x
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIA9BXHjofY

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkyIirL8E1
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWgfyIzIZM

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4W22qwVRm
We all turned to look at her, and she had her arms folded with her nose high up in the air. Oh, boy. I think I know what this is about. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyyGDx4BCm
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSekmDpo40
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuN79MX0ibC

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWkft5GzGb
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPnMQ3f4t7
If I were Jisoo, I wouldn’t have asked that question. But she doesn’t know Zoey like I do, so she better prepare to get her mind blown. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuADZPouMH
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tUPqG3dA2
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtWZoTV5w8

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnJu9yiSMp
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWiUIpNrFC
Jisoo looked at Zoey, dumbfounded. I turned to look at Mino and GD who like me, didn’t seem the least bit surprised. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCL8geNCsdD
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJZ6nBiVno
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RLNyqpshI

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn21F2vR7c2
"I know we said if Johnny does annoy us, especially with the album, we would then teach him a lesson," I said. "But right now, we need to find Lee. Dealing with Johnny will have to come later." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6D68pfSPh
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRFmCS02C3
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IZxXmrLgX

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGmhFJFuOi
Zoey sucked on her teeth and continued to lead the way down the stairs. I really need to keep an eye on her. She might have agreed not to do anything, but that’s Zoey. A moment later, she’ll find herself doing what she intended to do, and I’ll be left to deal with her mess. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mVi2MwvPJ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2IQUBlyYr
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAObkpqGTe
We are now in the basement and before Zoey could open the door. GD stepped forward. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65GTd63IxW
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aBSX6wfBI
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPokGy8HcD
"Let me be the first to go," he said. "Just in case, he's wondering around the basement car park." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ296v9Nu0Hh
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtv4mDnEkfk
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9j13VtM4R
Zoey gave him a nod of her head showing that she understood. She stood aside and GD went to open the door. He did it slowly to look around before fully stepping out. He turned to us standing by the door. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZmd3ySbP6
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAsyt4ecIU
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfDIOODifJ
"Don’t come out until the coast is clear," he whispered to us. He looked over at Mino. "You come over by the door and keep a look-out. You know where the storeroom is." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAFjJGUKKA
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjXchSUd7U
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGuDQUlbtQ
Mino gave a nod and went to stand by the door. G-Dagon soon walked away, leaving the door slightly ajar. Mino closed it for a bit so as not to be seen, but left a good amount of space for him to take a peek. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhUIotauWQ

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8jkMWv1L9
GD walked away from the door and made his way towards the cars packed on the other side. He looked around and there seems to be no sign of Johnny. He thought of going round to the exit when he heard Johnny's voice behind him. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL30P760fRg

G-Dragon turned and found Johnny coming from behind one of the pillars. He had a smile on his face like nothing is going on and GD felt his insides turn. What did he get himself into? 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4nouJ2UKy
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIOwEZNL4y
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg62R9EURvJ

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1Fz25O3Bk
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUP7HJ3fQVy

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BC0sT3Ccp
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNRKuzaPZa
"Okay, let’s get out of here," said GD. "The basement sometimes gives me the creeps when I stay too long." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGIB5dgCct
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QpgLyQ1UF
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bk8xHCR5z

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwiH0HhVMs
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcEszegBvn

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGfVSNFkUY
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOd0nduUZr
"Wow, things must be hectic, huh? You’re right, we better get going. I also wanted to see The Toxins, but looks like we’ll have to do that at another time." 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVSuArDt47
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5R38EMFHmR
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxhL2EGC4Z

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0am0DTAxm
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfL3r0iNJBE
Mino had seen Johnny as soon as he called out to GD. With the pillars and the cars in his sight of vision, it was hard to see them clearly, but he could tell they were walking towards the exit. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAQmr46Dj3
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8y8albbRn
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93zDwNIetb

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbclKSsRWOY
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNSHDOMMgT

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52Pr62e1hl
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mXHFsVUqF
Mino looked around first. He signalled with his hand to the others to follow. He walked out. Zoey and Sam followed, then Jisoo. Good thing about the place is that they could easily use the parked cars for cover. They walked up the curb with the cars facing them and bending over so as not to be seen. They were just about to reach the door of the basement when Jisoo suddenly fell on her knees. The rest stopped advancing and looked at their fallen comrade. GD and Johnny on the other side stopped walking too. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5hBmxDt9t
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaD4pw0ZKbq
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu36zPV3SNN

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5nnFcmZSZ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeysIiVQ5e

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSUQlCB4dW
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3LQegHDDI

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WPMewykkG
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUC9McVqpe

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqIFOsUWEN
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKawfVoNzsC

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvv575Sd6t

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlYDXGE0Ez
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBuYdec4F5
With Sam helping her up, but careful enough not to stand upright, she and Jisoo started to make their way to the others. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGR8VngyWv
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8OPCNwJqx
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Y3rPKtbVF

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0dzwEPhTS
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2vQZDRCaf
Shoot, GD said to himself. He has to stop Johnny before he spots the others. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRzVhG0lmJ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjDtzDObfw
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZD39Idw9n
"Come on, it’s probably nothing," said GD as he turned to watch Johnny slowly walk away. "What? Do you think there’s someone ready to jump us?" 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDwBacnQ2B
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQ2Y9e9rjB
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9qmFqMeUJ

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1ou1EkunW
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWwS8n8DoN
Sam and Jisoo managed to get to the others, and they quickly made their way to the door. Johnny was close and almost got to the storeroom, but he stopped. GD came up right behind him and prayed that Johnny won't spot them. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjwFoF5mqT
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAkBlbw0vz
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jP0VpKDrg

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHgg8b00TN
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9fitLGUSj

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqSbKAWUNs
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMSbSzRqzS
Just before the storeroom is a parked blue Sedan. That’s where Mino and the rest hid, hoping that Johnny wasn’t going to reach the car. If he did, he was definitely going to find them. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkio8Ie8FVO
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn32pVM0L31
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaTficJQC2
Mino bent his head to look round the corner of the car’s rear. GD and Johnny were going for the exit now. And he thought it best that they leave for good. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARsEuKlQMv

383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EszqyPGVn
They continued to sit there on the gravel while Mino bent his head now and then to check. Finally, he saw GD and Johnny walk through the exit. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8p2wTcdxYo
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEu78njtaq

Wooden chairs, carton boxes and plastic props came sliding out of the door like an avalanche. Mino and Zoey who stood closest moved away just in time. More props came pouring out that they reached the blue Sedan. 383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9x2oEIUHN
