142: Something that was totally unexpected

Dae Ju was standing beside a constructible building. But it was not under construction. The building was old and it needs to be prepared. There were lots of dust here and there. Seems like it hasn't been taken care for a long time. The building was broken here and there. Maybe it has been abandoned and with this building, the place has been also abandoned for some reason. If someone comes here at night, they will surely become afraid as it was quite horrible.

But Dae Ju has no interest in that. His face has been paled. He ran here after hearing about Lina. He couldn't think much and he came as soon as possible. He needs to protect her no matter what. She is in danger and there's nobody else who can help her. He was searching for her like crazy. But there was nobody except for him. He took his phone and called on the number from earlier. They texted him to come to the address and following the text he came here.

"Did you came?" the unknown guy asked.

"Yes, where should I go? Where are you? Where is Lina?" Dae Ju hurried them up.

"Slow down! She is fine!" he replied happily.

"Then, where the hell are you? There's no one here!" Dae Ju shouted.

"Calm down! You will be welcome here!" before he stopped talking two guys came to him and hold him from his back.

"Hey! What are you doing? HEY! LEAVE ME!" he shouted. But the boys were acting like they were deaf. They tied his eyes with a black cloth or plastic so that he can't see anything.

"Hey! Leave me I say! Why you are doing this? I came where I was told to! Then, did you guys lied to me? What is the reason behind all of this?" Dae Ju kept shouting. He has been dragged to somewhere.

After some time, his eyes have been freed. It was a cave like room. It wasn't that dark because the brick has been broken here and there. And the sunlight was coming from those spaces. He discovered himself on a chair but he wasn't being tied with the chair. He stood up and saw a guy was standing next to him who put off the cloth from his eyes. He got afraid because he has a sharp weapon in his hand.

"Who are you?" Dae Ju was afraid but he asked him.

"Look there!" he pointed at one side and said. Dae Ju looked around and found someone on another chair. He was afraid because he can guess who it could be. He went to the chair slowly and as he assumed, it was Lina. Tying with the chair. Maybe she was sleeping or she was unconscious. Her head was leaning on the chair's backside. There was a piece of cloth in her mouth. Maybe they wanted to block her sounds that's why they tied her mouth too but they didn't know the girl can't scream loudly. Her hands were being tied with the handle too. Her black and messy hair was on her face and that's why her face wasn't seen clearly. He went to her slowly. His legs were shivering. He kneels before her with his two knees. He opened her hand slowly. Her hand was being tied too tightly that her wrists have been turned red. He loosened her mouth too. But before he can loosen her body from the chair, some guys came inside.

"Whoa! How lovely the scene was going! Did we interrupt you? Then, we are sorry but we aren't gonna leave!" Seung Mang laughed and pointed at another guy. Dae Ju stood up by noticing them and hurried up but when someone hurried up for something, it took longer than usual. And that's why he couldn't untie her but she has been awakened.

"Rumi-sshi! She wanted to hug him but before that, the guy who just took an order came and hold Dae Ju. He pulled him far from her.

"No! Let me go! Let her go!" Dae Ju begged.

"We aren't going to keep you here forever! We just need some important information from you." a guy came to Dae Ju and said. Dae Ju looked at the guy. His both hand was being pasted. He couldn't able to move. He was trying to exceed himself. But when he looked at the guy who just came to him, he stopped moving. He couldn't believe his own eyes.

"Baek Kyung!" he got a shock. He stopped and didn't want to move anymore. He felt like he was dreaming but it wasn't.

"Oh! Then you know me!" he came closer to him and touched his cheek softly.

"How can I not know you! Why you are doing this? You were a great person! What changed you to this? I was searching for you for a long time!" Suddenly he got emotional and forget who he was.

"How romantic you are! But, I am not going to be a fool!" he laughed.

"I never met you and you know me that well!" he acts like he was so surprised. Dae Ju exceeded himself and moved frontwards. He went to him and looked at his face.

"You have been changed. How can you change that much? Can you please tell me what happened to you? You are not that Baek Kyung I know." Dae Ju was very soft while saying. He kept looking at his face. Baek Kyung was being embarrassed because he never imagines something like this gonna happen.

"Why don't you come to the right point?" Seung Mang was being aggressive.

"Let me hear him. It's going interesting." He said while smiling. Why you kept saying you know me? Who are you? I can't remember about you. Why?" he was becoming soft.

"Can't you recognize me? Oh! How could you? I am your hyung! I am Kim Dae Ju! We used to be trained together, remember? Whenever you got afraid, you came to me. Whenever you got sad, you came to me. Whenever you..." he kept saying but suddenly Baek Kyung starts shouting.

"STOP! STOP! STOP IT! Don't you dare to call his name! This is the only one person whom I hate most in this world!" suddenly he pushed him far and Dae Ju falls on another guy.

"Stop it already! Let's just collect the right information and finish them." Seung Mang was roaming around and he went to Lina. She woke up but stay sitting on the chair. She was watching what was going on. She was very confused as she doesn't know any of them except for Seung Mang. She recognized him and as he was in front of her, she wanted to exceed herself but she couldn't.

Her head was hurting more than the previous night so she was quite weak. She wanted to make some tea but there was no teabag in their house. So, she went to the next door for borrowing some but she couldn't reach to the next house. When she came outside and looked to that house in which she wanted to go, someone grabs her from her back tightly and pressed her mouth so that she can't scream. There were other people on the road who were watching them but nobody came to save her. She was trying her best to escape but she couldn't.

"No! It's real! Look at me! Should I give you secret information that's just between us? Okay, remember that day when you got afraid of a spider? When it went up on your pant and going inside, just I was there and I came to save you but I got afraid too. I went to save you but right then I fall on you and accidentally we k....." Dae Ju couldn't finish his sentence.

"Hey! Hey Hey! Stop! How did you know about it? It was just between us! We were alone inside that room! I didn't tell anyone! It was so embarrassing!" he stopped him and start thinking.

"See! I told you! I am your hyung! I was searching for you everywhere! Why you left us? I didn't saw you for at least ten years. I missed you so much! We shared so many moments together. Didn't you ever remember about us? Me? How can you stay far from us?" Dae Ju went closer to him and touched his cheek softly. He forgot everything about him. Seems like he can forgive him just by looking at his face.

"Move away! Don't touch me! I don't know if you are telling the truth but you are behaving just like him! And you know what? I hate him! If it's real then I am telling you I hate you!" He said loudly and moved backward.

"Why? What did I do to you? I thought I was your favorite. Why you are acting like I am your enemy?" He was acting soft and his eyes got full by his tears.

"Don't you get it yet! You ruined my life! It was because of you! I was the perfect one! I was better than you! But, you know why I was eliminated? Because of you! They want a visual which I wasn't. That's why! That's why instead of me, you have been chosen though I was more talented than you! What could you do back then? You kept forgetting the dance steps. You kept messing with the lyrics. You didn't have any skills in writing or composing songs. BUT! You had been chosen. FOR WHY? YOU WERE VERY HANDSOME! F**KING HANDSOME! ALL THEY NEED WAS YOUR FACE, NOT YOUR TALENT!" Baek Kyung was moving here and there while saying this. He couldn't even match his eyes with him.

"That's why you wanted to kill me?" Dae Ju suddenly interrogates him. Yes! If you weren't there, my life would have been perfect! My dad consoles me but I don't want his f**king console! I know what he wanted from me! I never wanted to stay with him but I had to return to him at last. Do you know why? Because of you!" he was very angry on Dae Ju. But it could be seen that he also got teary eyes.

"I thought you went to another company." Dae Ju said in a very low voice.

"But they didn't accept me! Nobody! I tried at least in ten companies! But I wasn't being chosen. Nobody wanted talent without handsome face! I kept messing up with my dance after I separated from you! When the companies know that I have been eliminated in Triple M, nobody wanted to take me." he started to cry.

"I am sorry. I didn't know what you have been through! But, you should have come to me. I could have helped you." he wanted to come closer being emotional but his friend pushed him away.

"I know how you can help me! Huh! I wanted to see you dead. Maybe it could help me to get me some peace! But fate keeps supporting you and now you are a different person! Haha!" he was acting crazy.

"Are you done? Can we talk on something important now?" asked Seung Mang.

"I don't want to talk anymore. You can proceed. I will go outside." saying this Baek Kyung went away. Dae Ju was feeling very guilty. He never knew why he has been hated that much! But, now he knows about it and he thinks he deserved it.

"Where are those files?" Seung Mang asked and went closer to Lina.

"Why you are going there?" Dae Ju also went to him.

"Get him!" Seung Mang pointed at the guys and said. Two of them came to Dae Ju and hold him again.

"Where did you find the proof? Where are those files right now?" He was calm. Dae Ju got what he wanted to know but he acted as of he didn't get it.

"What? Which file?" Dae Ju asked.

"What did you think? We don't know anything? That you kept helping that detective? Why? Didn't you even think about what will happen if you got caught? You didn't! Now, you have to suffer! We can forgive you if you can prove him innocent. We are reopening the case. Got it?" he said as if he was warning him.

"I don't have those now. I gave all of them to Mr. Park." Dae Ju replied and trying to exceed himself.

"Then, you left me no choice! I didn't want to go that far." he took out a knife from his shock and went back to Lina. He touched her face softly first and then put the knife in front of her neck.

"I will finish her here if you don't tell me the truth. I know there's another copy. Where is it?" He was true. There was another copy but Dae Ju didn't know about it. Soo Mi has it but Dae Ju has no idea about it.

"I told you, I don't have it! Let her go! She doesn't know anything!" Dae Ju shouted and tried his best to exceeded himself.

"But you know where it is! We can change the documents and prove him innocent! So you should better tell me or else.....you don't know me yet." Lina was afraid but she didn't say anything. She was just shaking her head and finally she exceeded herself as her hand was untied. But she couldn't move. If she wanted to move, she will get hurt by the knife. She was going to punch him but noticing this, he holds her hand and laughed.

"Huh! How clever you are! But not more than me!" He stood up and hold her hair tightly. She got hurt and tried to exceed herself but she couldn't. Dae Ju was finding a way. He was looking here and there. Suddenly he noticed that the guy who was holding him has guns in their pockets. He put his feet on one of them and try to crush his feet. The man leaves him so it was easy for Dae Ju to get rid of them. He took a gun from them and pointed it to Seung Mang. It was so sudden and so quick that nobody could understand.

"Put that down or else I will kill her." Seung Mang gets afraid and said. He makes Lina stood up and hold her neck tightly.

"Let her go. Or else, I will really shoot you!" Dae Ju shouted and said. I am not afraid of you. But I am not letting her go until you say what I wanted to know." He shouted again.

"Leave me!" she was insisted and trying her best but she wasn't as strong as him. That time, Baek Kyung came back but Dae Ju didn't notice it. He pointed to the guy to move and came to him slowly. Dae Ju noticed it and he looked back.

"I will shoot you all! Let her go! Let us go! I won't tell anyone about you! I will never change the proof! He deserves to stay in jail! He is a murderer! So that you! I can kill all of you! It won't be count as sin!" He was shouting and becoming very angry.

"Try it! Try it!" Seung Mang shouted and cut Lina's cheek. It started bleeding. She was groaning out of pain.

"No! I warned you, now die!" he shoots with the gun but the bullet went another way as he wasn't good at shooting.

"Guys! Please drop your weapon! I didn't do anything like that!" Baek Kyung shouted. He has a thick stick in his hand. He took it just in case. Seung Mang leaves Lina and Lina ran to Dae Ju.

"Now, drop your gun," said Seung Mang.

"Please drop it," Lina begged to Dae Ju. Dae Ju looked at her and felt very bad for her. Her cheek was still bleeding and seeing this he couldn't control himself.

"No! He hurt you! I have to kill him!" He went close to Seung Mang.

"No! Come back! Please!" Lina begged him but he didn't listen to her. Seems like he has been possessed again. He smiled and kept going to him. He started throwing bullets randomly though one of them couldn't even touch his enemy. Seung Mang used the chair as his shield. The bullets were falling away from him.

"Don't come close! Drop it I said!" he was scared and keep going backward. Suddenly Lina shouted by his name. But before he looked behind, something very strong hit his head and his head starts spinning. Dae Ju falls down on the ground.
