Chapter Twelve
"We know what we are, but not what we may"
- William Shakespeare
Jimin, maybe always bump with bad luck but often finds himself lucky to be surrounded by nice people who would anything for him. From his loving parents to loyal friends, Yoongi, Hana and Jackson.
Jimin didn't think that Jackson would go for such length for him. He never thought of himself to be deserved by such great friends. When life was mocking him, there were nice people for his help.
Jinyoung- Jackson's elder brother, an intern for prosecutor, tried to take his case but just like Yoongi said the cops were corrupted, they didn't listen and quietly transferred his case to Maneater Valley's Station where no law works in his favour.
But Jinyoung didn't back down in vain, set them up with a technical intelligence guy- JB who could help them. Jackson didn't waste more time and quickly text him to come in an arcade.
Odd, place where Jimin was lost bean as he found himself in front of only game parlour where teenagers were venting their anger.
"Chimin, here" Jimin was grabbed abruptly and dragged inside a more spacious room where advance computers were set up which looked cool with many more strange equipments.
JB was exactly like a stereotype geek. His long hair was covered with a beanie and his body was clad in a oversize black hoodie. His auro gave him a typical technical guy. He was already busy with codes when Jackson dared to scare the poor guy from his obnoxious loud voice. But Jimin instantly took his word back as JB wasn't some poor guy and didn't back down from narrowing his cat eyes on Jackson who immediately bow down to apologize.
"So, whom should I stalk?" JB asked but laughed seeing the boys' shocked faces. "I was joking. So Jinyoung briefed me about you, Jimin. Can you tell that girl's number" his serious facade quickly dropped and they found themselves liking this side better.
Jimin took out his phone and recited Miss Lee's number and stood near the screen, ogling the never ending codes and binaries.
"Jimin, how did you manage to gain yourself a stalker? Ha?"
"W-what do you mean?"
"It looks like this Miss Lee girl whose full name is Lee Aera was quite obsessed with you. She had stalked you on every social media you had" the statement shocked the two clueless guy who were looking at each other. Jackson always find Miss Lee, a little odd but she was more than that. "When did she joined your workplace?"
"Maybe two months or somewhere near it" Jackson counted.
"Just like i guessed. Here, see for yourself. She had liked your two months old Instagram picture from her another account, which you had posted and your workplace is fully shown in it. And we can clearly put two and two together" JB rambled.
"Oh my God! And here, I was stupidly flirting with her" Jimin never regret his actions so much like this ever in his life.
"You are stupid" Jackson commented while munching on his Cheetos.
"Next, I am going to print out her texts"
"What? Why?"
"She had talked with her friends about her plan to grab your attention. There are many chats with other people where she was talking about knowing your address and favourite places. And guess what I saw on her Facebook?"
"She still uses Facebook?" it was clearly shocking for Jackson.
"That's not the point. She had threatened other girls who were maybe seen with you. I think it's enough to prove her stalker tendency. It would buy you some time"
"Yeah, maybe"
"Jimin, I was told that her last location from your residing place where you have been on vacation?" on which Jimin affirmatively nodded. Thats what Cops told him.
"Can you point on where are you currently been living?"
"You can find the exact place as Police told me that it was difficult for them? Jimin didn't waste time and sharply scan the map on the screen. Amazingly, the map was 3D, so it was easy for him to locate. He tapped on the cottage's icon.
"Okay, now i know why police are blaming you. They found the location near your cottage but couldn't find the exact point. But why is Aera's last location is shown on the opposite of your cottage. On this house" JB pointed but Jimin already knew whose house was that.
"I don't know myself JB" with that Jimin thanked them, gathered the prints of texts and last location before bidding them goodbye.
The couple decided to visit town's library where old books, manuscripts and information were kept safe. It was a run down building, with worn out walls, but had a pleasant smell and presence.
Yoongi took a deep breath, inhaling the rusty old paper, a small smile creeping on his face. He missed doing this.
He was startled when a kiss was abrupt fling on his lips. He let out a 'huh?'.
"You looked so cute, gawking at the books. My munchkin" Hana teased him while pecking his soft baby lips.
"Baby what?" he tried to wrap his mind on her sudden movements.
"I swear, if we didn't have an important task to do, I would have wrecked you here on the table" she gritted like restraining herself from throwing herself on him.
"Okay, you can wreck me at home, we have a lot of thing to do" He briefly kissed her before went to find the librarian.
"Umm sir, can you help us find the family trees information of this town" He politely asked the old librarian who took his sweet time cleaning his glasses before eyeing them suspiciously.
"And for what do you need them, may I ask child?"
"We want to locate out ancestors, I think they were from this town" Hana lied effortlessly while Yoongi watched her with wide eyes. 'Smart' he thought.
But the old man easily took her words and usher them to follow him.
"This shelves are filled with all the books dated from way back then. Some manuscripts and miscellaneous items. You can search here, nobody will bother you" he informed and went to his post near the front.
Thankfully, the library building was quite large and their section was hidden near a corner. Nobody would doubt them.
"Baby, you can start from here and I'll look there" With that they began their search.
