100: Criminal Undercover

Choi San and Dae Ju took two cans of soda from a vending machine and start drinking them. It was 6 pm and the sun was getting down. So, it was half light and half dark. There were many people on the road. The young generation was going back to their house. The housewives are also going back after finishing their shopping or hang out. The kids were still playing on the road. It was an amazing view.

Suddenly Dae Ju's phone starts ringing. He took out the phone and saw it was detective Park. As the boy was beside him and he can't trust him that easily, he didn't pick up the call.

"I have to go now. I will meet you tomorrow." Dae Ju said and took another way.

"Okay," the boy walked to his house and within a few minutes, he vanished. Dae Ju was waiting and looking at him. When he became sure that he went far from him, he took out his phone and called Mr. Park.

"Oh! Finally! Finally, I can reach you! Nowadays, it becomes hard to reach you! How busy you must be!" Mr. Park was mocking him since he couldn't talk with him for the last three days.

"Ah! I am sorry!" he laughed as he felt guilty.

"Okay, where are you? Come to my office now." he nearly ordered Dae Ju.

"Okay, I will come to you within fifteen minutes. Wait for me." saying this he hung up and went to the police station.

When he entered inside the station, Mr. Park was not there. He was busy in torturing some criminals for getting information. He was too rough with them. Dae Ju can hear his voice as he was too loud. He got afraid of him.

"He can be that dangerous! I can't believe it!" he said in his mind. His table was messy with a lot of stuff. Seems like he didn't get time to clear them. Dae Ju sat on a chair and wait for Mr. Park.

When he came to his desk, he saw it was clean. The stuff were kept on the table but they were tidy up and the table was looking clean.

"So, how are you now, Mr. Rumi!" he asked and sat down. Seems like he was very tired. He was even sweating.

"Great!" Dae Ju smiled.

"Seems like you have no problem with your life!" Mr. Park looked at him and said.

"Not that much! I am kinda enjoying it!" Dae Ju answered.

"Well, I didn't want you to ask about you. I want to know what happened to you when you went to Johnnie? Where's the information? You didn't send me or you didn't even call me to inform me! And when I call you either you didn't answer or your phone was switched off. Isn't it great!" he was mocking again.

"Ah! That because I was kinda busy!" Dae Ju laughed but not loudly. He was laughing weirdly.

"Oh! Hahaha! How funny!" he was imitating him again and make a serious face.

"Now get back to some serious talk!" he shouted and sit well.

Dae Ju explained everything to him. Now, he knows that the sister of the Mafia leader wants him to stop and that's why she wanted to help the detective to catch him. That's why he make a plan though he didn't share it to them. After hearing from Dae Ju, he started to think about it.

"So, you didn't even think to let me know about it, right?" he asked as if he was totally unbothered.

"Ah! My mistake!" Dae Ju laughed again.

"Why you guys always laugh to cover your guilt?" the detective was getting angry.

"I am sorry. I should have informed you." Dae Ju makes a guilty face and said.

"Okay, if you're interested in racing, then do it! But, if you don't have a plan, then don't do something stupid!" the detective was getting angrier.

"I don't know why but they need me and as you know, I couldn't say no to them! They were threatening me! How could I say no to him? And when I went to get some suggestion, the director told me that he has confidence over me!" Dae Ju nearly shouted.

"Wait! Wait! Wait! Did I tell you that you chose the wrong way?" Mr. Park stopped him as Dae Ju got him wrong.

"What?" Dae Ju couldn't get it and asked.

"I was just planning to send you there! I can solve another case if you help me..... properly!" said the detective.

"What?" Dae Ju get more confused.

"Yes! We have some information that every year a race has been arranged. It's very famous in Korea and China. The racers from Korea and China took part every year. But not long ago, we get some information that the race is not just between two countries or two companies. The two companies who held the race have a secret business in the race!" Mr. Park was very excited when he was saying this. Seems like he was the storyteller while Dae Ju was his listener. "Secret business?" Dae Ju was surprised.

"Yes, I mean, no! They are actually smugglers." Mr. Park said.

"Wha.... really?" Seems like he was amazed more than being surprised.

"Yes. They are smuggling drugs while everyone is busy in the race," he replied. But, I thought there would be cameras everywhere! How can they not be caught until now?" Dae Ju was confused.

"There will be cameras but I don't know their techniques, That's why we couldn't catch them yet. But, your mission is to become one of them and inform me about their every step. Got it?" he gave Dae Ju an order.

"Oh! Should I become a detective now? Mission undercover! Whoo!" Dae Ju was excited though he didn't know he can make it or not.

"I didn't know Johnnie was behind all of this! Ha! You rascal! I will catch you this time!" Mr. Park was quite excited too.

But they didn't know what was waiting for them.

"But, there is a problem." Dae Ju said being serious.

"Now what?" Mr. Park was tired so he closed his eyes and said.

"I have a wedding party to attend on the same day. And I can't miss that," he said.

"Hey! You can't! We got a mission and we must do it! You can't go back from here! If you didn't want to then why you said it earlier?" the detective became angry.

"I am sorry but I have just wanted some suggestions from you. How can I attend the party? I have no idea. That's why I just asked you if you can give me any suggestions! But, you got angry!" Dae Ju was quite disappointed and make his face like very sad.

"Ah! I didn't understand! We will think about it later! Why are you acting like it! Don't you want to become a detective like me?" he was encouraging Dae Ju. Dae Ju was thinking about himself. He was nothing but an Idol. But now, he has to become a manager, a spy, a racer and now he is going to be a criminal! What else he should be? Is there any more job that he didn't do before? He couldn't think about it. When he thoughts about Seo Jin's marriage, he felt very disappointed. She was his only sibling but he can't attend her marriage! Is that possible? He can't miss it! She will stay away after this and she will not come to quarrel with him anymore! He wanted to stay with her someday before it but he can't. He sighed again.

"Go home now! We will talk later." saying this Mr. Park stood up and went away. Dae Ju also stood up. It was 9 pm already but he didn't go home yet. She was insisted too much to see him like she used to. Could it be alright to take her there? After thinking about it while walking, he determined that he should take her there. He can keep an eye on her if he takes her. But he doesn't know, how can he become a criminal now? He never did such a villainy thing before. He watched too many dramas on crime. The criminals are very dangerous and they can do anything for their own sake. What if they kidnap Lina if he doesn't listen to them!

"Ah! I didn't think about it earlier! I should have a stick up with her!" he said and increased his speed. He reached home when it was 9.30 pm. He walked home so he gets tired. He could have to take a taxi but the road was too crowded with vehicles that he had to spend more time in traffic. He knocked at the door as the door was closed from inside. Lina opened the door but she didn't welcome him. She was talking with someone on phone and that's why she couldn't even say hello or welcome home to Dae Ju. He felt upset but also curious about who it was. He was also jealous of that person. After opening the door Lina went inside giving him a big smile. Dae Ju also went inside but he was following Lina to know about the phone person.

"Who is it?" Dae Ju asked while whispering.

"Hoon-ah!" Lina also replied to him the way he wanted to know.

"Ah!" He felt more jealous on him.

"Why he always, every time do this to me? How can I separate them? I should be the villain! Yes! I will kidnap him and teach him a good lesson since I am connected to a Mafia! HAHAHA! After I scared him, he will never ever come to my Lina! He will get afraid and run away! HAHAHA!" he was thinking weird things because he was too mad at him.

"What happened? Why you are giving that creepy smile?" Lina asked. She hung up the phone and noticed him. He didn't go up and he was standing in one place while smiling.

"Ah! Nothing! Hahaha! I should go change first! Haha!" he was smiling to cover his embarrassment. Then he went to the upstairs.

"What happened to him? He is acting weird!" Lina was surprised by his behavior and said.

[The next morning in the practice ground]

"Hello! Choi San! How are you?" he put his hand on his head. Choi San was tying his shoelace and that's why he was bending. Right then, Dae Ju came and seeing him like this, he finds him cute and adorable.

"Ah! Hello! Mr. Rumi!" he stood up and said. There were six boys and three were missing.

"Everyone didn't come, right?" Dae Ju asked.

"No, they are still sleeping. They don't sleep at night. They chat with their girlfriends for whole..." he couldn't stop his line. Before that, a boy came to him and slap back on his head.

"TMI!" He shouted in English. They thought Dae Ju will not get it. But he understood and couldn't hold his laugh.

"It's okay! He is still young!" he said while smiling. The boy who shouted a while ago glared at him and went frontward. Choi San stayed quiet as if he makes a big sin by talking. His face turned pale.

"By the way, you guys stay together?" Dae Ju asked. He wanted to be friendly with them. He asked gently.

"Yes." two of the boys answered. Most of them fall for his kindness and we'll behavior.

"Oh! That's great! Don't you go to visit your parents often?" he asked gently.

"No! Because we don't have one! And you should oil in your own machine!" The boy who always acted rude to him said loudly. Then he put on his gloves and start walking far from then.

"Should I invite all of you?" he said to the boys and move on. Dae Ju liked the passion and he was praising him in his mind. He went to the changing room to change. He took the smartwatch with him today so that if there's something fishy, he can record it as proof.
