Kim Namjoon and Kim Seokjin sat at the cold, fake-wood table opposite the man who sat in complete silence.

An entire hour passed.

Somewhere in the corner, the sound recorder was working tirelessly for nothing. The man's lips didn't move.

"Do you know that man?" Namjoon asked, pointing as a poster on the wall.

"This is your last chance." Seokjin sighed, placing his hand on the table. "Either tell us, or we will assume that you too are involved in the case."

"I will tell you nothing." The man said in a monotone voice. "There is nothing to tell."

"Then why is Min Yoongi's number on your phone right now?" Namjoon asked, placing the phone on the table.

Taehyung tensed up.

"I am a family friend. We haven't spoken in months."

Seokjin picked up the phone and unlocked it using the special police access code.

"Last message you sent to Min Yoongi was just a day ago." He explained, scanning the phone's details. "In the same conversation you discussed both the fact that you and Mr Min are hackers, for which the sentence is severe enough, and you were also kind enough to write all about the NASA hackings too. Now, not only do we have a new suspect, but we have new evidence."

The boy looked shocked.

"That...that was a prank! A joke!"

"You discussed agent Jeon too." Jin pointed out.

"Thank you for your time Mr Kim Taehyung - we will be placing you in temporary custody." Namjoon recited, standing up and placing the phone in the evidence file. "You've been a great help to us."

Taehyung growled and tried to throw a punch at Namjoon, but Seokjin immediately detained him and pinned him to the floor with his arm bent behind his back.

The younger boy cried out in pain and tried to writhe out of the policeman's rough grip. Shouting from the interrogation room could be heard all through the police station.

"L...let me go..." He choked, pinned to the ground.

"I'm afraid not Kim." Namjoon sighed. "You see, in the likely case that Jeon fails due to emotional attachment later on, you could be the perfect bait to lure out little Yoongi."

"Son of a -" Taehyung snapped, writhing on the ground under Jin's weight.

The next thing he knew was his body being thrown into a cell so hard he hit the wall and every bone in his body shook.

He collapsed on the cell floor and felt tears stream down his face. His body hurt so much, but his only thought was that he deserved it.

He sat up against the cold wall of the cell and sobbed his eyes out, trying to wipe the smears of his own blood off his hands from where Jin had hit him.

His sobs echoed loudly.

"I'm sorry Yoongi..." He whispered. "MIANHAE HYUNGNIM..."
