After telling the rest of the Toxins about the news of Zoey's disappearance, they were now all wide awake and quite frantic. Christine even went ahead to retrieve her phone from her room to try and call Zoey. Mike muttered about how he was going to give Zoey an earful when she got back to the hotel. Daniel, just like me, didn't say much, but the look on his face said it all. He was worried.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaRsF7CevP
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHQG10Cp18
"Zoey has gone too far," said Daniel, finally finding his voice.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpBo33HvAI
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GpGVa9jC4
"All the more reason to find her," said Lee. She had her phone in hand. I wondered if she was also trying to call Zoey.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrveolkPlyV
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxQqkEMa6Y
"Won't Collins be here soon?" Mike asked. "He won't be happy to know that Zoey isn't here."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMalzmixiw9
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErLawkqjqn
"He'll be furious," I said. "The question is where she could have gone. Seoul is a big city, and she isn't familiar with the place."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJmp9BdiX0
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUovR8RwGwg
"True," said Lee. "But the thing we know for certain is that she has gone to wherever Johnny is."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKmAj1uiGE
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXjXCEHyxs
"That's a good place to start," said Mike. "Does anyone here know which hotel he could be residing in?"369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHTNUDlIYK
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVryyUwMdm
"We can ask G-Dragon," I said.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeUD9yeozu
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZdRobrPiQ
Christine came rushing back into the room with her phone in her hand. Had she tried calling Zoey?369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEa0HR1OvOU
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2ne5le87U
"Any luck?" Daniel asked, looking at Christine.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWiBoFCk9f
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrKNGgoEhy
"No," she replied. "Her phone went through, but she didn't pick up."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyzM2OefKD
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPdVxskoTP
"If we were back home, tracking her phone wouldn't be a problem with the connections I have," said Lee. "But we're on different territory, and we might just track unwanted attention."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcStscYKv7M
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBY2rGOFDa
"Well, we just have to stick to the basics, then," I said. I turned to Christine. "Call G-Dragon. If we find Johnny, we might find Zoey."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSHMJjmsfG
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosSc0DANmF
"I just hope he answers me," Christine said. After finding G-Dragon's line, she called and put the phone to her ear.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGFUsM4T2O
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wUXgeipmZ
The rest of us waited in silence as we all stood, hoping for G-Dragon to answer. Finally, he did. Christine put the phone on loudspeaker for everyone to hear.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJl8XiVGPTQ
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVN5MWL2JQ
"Hey, Christine," came G-Dragon's voice. "I was in the shower. I hope you haven't been calling."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOOPCITreb
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5gG4YueI4
"No, this is the only time I've called," said Christine. "I called to ask you something. Do you know where Johnny is? Is he with you by any chance?"369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZgERNGUac
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUviwbU7Bfd
"Um, no, he isn't. After I came back to my apartment, we both went our separate ways."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgiS48YCTk
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZHUKkgQwM
"Wait, you've never known where he is staying?"369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv805rHsofk
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGfcsPw8eL
"Not really. All I know is that he stays at some hotel not very far from my place. Hey, why are you asking about him? Is it about what happened this afternoon? You do know he didn't cut the power, right?"369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAduXk4UZL
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJ3HwVkaly
"Yeah, we know. It was quite disappointing when we found out."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKknXcA1wjJ
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhlB65GXQ6
"Well, why are you asking about him? Don't tell me you plan on visiting him."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXyNR1SmpM
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiYg7epshV
"We wouldn't even dream of it. Collins already has us on a tight leash."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCVGCxpsyw
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUWuzoeyXU
"Then why ask these questions? Is something wrong?"369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMdFtyMNgg
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNDVhMCkSV
"Oh, nothing. It's silly."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYlXvwuZIm
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0NXxzz8K1
"No, tell me. What's going on?"369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YgBVX690v
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBLYxYlY7W
The rest of us, who were quite like mice, turned to Christine. Lee shook her head, telling her not to tell him about Zoey. Christine looked like she was about to break into a sweat. If there's one thing she's not really good at, it's telling a genuine lie at gunpoint.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSChnUz6ZS4
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMbr2Rdcz1
"Oh, uh... Zoey here was being paranoid earlier, thinking that Johnny might come for us here like he did at the YG building," Christine lied nervously. "But we tried convincing her that it couldn't happen and that he was far away from us. Plus, we have guards, so he can't go past them."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYBh2WWYuG
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUJ5G3a3f4
G-Dragon was silent for a minute, and we thought he hadn't bought it until he started to chuckle. Phew! That was a close one.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBN6SrLyWT
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0g5nayNO9K
"Zoey really is a drama queen," he said. "Tell her that if it makes her feel better, I can come over and she can scratch my face off."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8EBOJiu9z
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQ9ru1NFbm
"Wait, you're coming over?" Christine now looked terrified.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdECcYVT26
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHlR63XS5r
"Oh, no. I'm beat for the day. Plus, I need to rest up. There's something I want to work on later. Tell everyone I said hi. As for Zoey, tell her to get a chill pill."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPZUsmTege
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoVP5C10LS
"Oh, I will. Thanks, GD. Goodnight."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHgNuLaMhH
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmhdu18AYj
"Goodnight. Send Sam my kisses."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXX5Dq0UwGK
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3Spa3PymP
Christine giggled as she looked at me. I felt like I was about to blow a fuse.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QW7SmwAaz
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjXCoPTew5
"I will," she answered as she ended the call.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQ0tFL0RlV
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mdS1CRTu5
"Well, we've heard him," said Mike. "Johnny is not with GD."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwI4OPNraby
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUdQ2rJ8dm
"And we know he still cares about Sam," Lee said teasingly.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTe6LwSxEq
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJ1NvlPT9o
"Enough," I said as I threw Lee and Christine a look. They looked like they were going to burst into laughter. "Think. Zoey went out to look for Johnny, but where could she have gone? She couldn't have left without knowing where he was."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MbZ9uZlkh
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuzwqxi1rl
"True," said Daniel. "She must have found out about his whereabouts from somewhere or from someone."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHgvSYX6kg
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbD0cDFoAz
My mind clicked, and I soon snapped my fingers. "Social media. She must have seen something there." I turn to Christine, who already has her phone in her hand. "Check Johnny's Instagram account. We might find something there."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTRTaVMIUY
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvIpcPKq0g
Christine went ahead to check, and a few seconds later, she said, "I found something."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQzottBv3r
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlqr9pUPfA
"That was quick," said Mike, as he came over to check. "So where is he?"369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGB2EBQv2l0
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkg2uKe2CE
"He posted where he would be tonight," said Christine as she showed Mike her phone. "It looks like someplace downtown."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7LyOXB1Ul
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPBfFJqejA
"Does he usually post where he goes all the time?" Lee asked.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CnB5vMUqD
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0Dytp4Xwl
"Not really," said Mike as he scrolled through Johnny's feed. "Usually the places he posts about have pictures with him in them. His recent post shows a map of where he is going to be for the night."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jFXmfzlOS
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPTj18zuHC
"Could this be a trap?" I asked without much thought. "It's strange that he could post where he is going to be. Could he have known that one of us might take the bait?"369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5pFN3PiNW
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSb2A26jiz
"Considering how mad Zoey still is about what happened earlier and how dense she could be, then yes," Mike answered with a nod of his head. "She's taken the bait. That's if it was really his plan from the very beginning."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2k6zCodMu
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwapHw8hpzu
"When we find Zoey, no one should say what Mike said about her being dense," I said.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiVwW6xyVR
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaN2hGuNXk
"Noted," the other three, apart from Mike, responded simultaneously.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtcN55azUJ
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2HIsEni62
"It looks like we have to go there," said Christine as she took her phone from Mike. "But what are we going to do when Collins shows up?"369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjUZjCz8Vv
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JVsJ84OFr
No sooner had Christine said those words did we hear the sound of the elevator reaching our floor. We all looked at each other, horrified. He's already here.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfkCPXMOwH
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJP3JNcI9cH
"Tell him that you guys plan to go out for the night to relax your mind after a long day," said Lee. We could hear footsteps coming in the hall. "He'll believe you."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gd82NuZAf
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsecTISd1pO
"And what if he asks about Zoey?" Christine asked.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKMBn3SjiL
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpIFcg8QQb
"We lie as usual," I answered.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzO6ONKKVu
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXu7N6ECsz
"Hey, people," said Collins, standing at the entrance of the lounge. "I expected all of you to be asleep."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YpNDyvB64
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9a97aXrDi8
"We just woke up," said Daniel as he rubbed his eyes, pretending to be still sleepy.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44ETxc6FbX
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZy3dEObAKb
"Your supper is here," Collins announced as a waiter came in, dragging a trolley filled with lovely delicacies. "And you won't believe who I met downstairs. They were coming up to see you."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KGyOQDfsZ
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU91sFMDdq0
"Who?" Mike asked with an eyebrow raised, looking confused. He wasn't the only one.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgxzkqhKRO
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8QXIv6WRW
Two people appeared behind Collins. My mouth dropped in surprise, Christine included. There, standing alongside Collins, were Jimin and Jungkook from BTS.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeX4Yw5psC
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUZWZKnoWb
"Jimin, Jungkook, hi," I said as I approached them. "It's a surprise to see you here."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8EZ3uOOKi
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNeBcWwr0H
"We didn't ruin your evening, did we?" Jungkook asked as he came to give me a hug.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70S83dHRd3
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPL031rDJih
"No, not at all," I said after we broke away from each other, and I went on to hug Jimin. Christine came behind to hug Jungkook. "Nothing could be more thrilling than having you guys over."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIAHOnGXgV
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wWwK3JxoE
"Hey, you two!" Mike greeted them as he came to join us. "Nice to see you again. Why didn't you all come, the seven of you?"369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZt1lCebga
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNJEON6JHn
"Oh, uh, the others are kind of busy," Jimin answered with a smile on his face. "We thought it would be fun to stop by and say hi."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9QIgikJhR
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEIFU1qmRf
"Or we can go out for the night," I suggested. "We have had a long day, so we thought it would be best to relax by going somewhere. Would you like to come along?"369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3NHWi3wGz
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzDI1VVgFN
I could feel Lee and the others eyes on me. I knew what they were thinking. Going out with Jimin and Jungkook might ruin our chance of finding Zoey ourselves. But there's another benefit to all this, and I'm not going to let that slip. With Jimin and Jungkook, who know Seoul very well, finding the place will be a piece of cake.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmmDuUilZr
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMkeqAMp7x
"I like the idea," said Daniel. "That's if it's fine with Collins."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxIpdQas6y
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qkmJSD29Y
"If you're going out to have fun, then fine by me," said Collins. "Just be careful. By the way, where is Zoey?"369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiE3jCRXrR
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOLD6dyxGp
"I left her in the shower," I lied. "She has one of those headaches again."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZQLUdc6Ha
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVe8iXP2mpZ
"Oh, the kind that leaves her in the shower forever," said Collins. "Make sure to come back before midnight. You still need to rest for tomorrow."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlL3eDzYGu
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJ9T5Gpw9Z
"I'll make sure they will," said Lee.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQUo6m6CGe
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4cjUyRRLN
"Good, I don't want you guys having too much fun. I already had supper, so if you need me, I'll be in my room."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0g8FZ7a3M
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rDeMQSoGo
This is perfect. With Collins out of the way, getting out of here without Zoey won't be an issue. Now we have to tell Jimin and Jungkook. We can't find Zoey without them.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhANuYs9UFa
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4mnlJJYR9
Collins went to his room, and the rest of us went on to eat supper, offering Jimin and Jungkook to join us, which they did. While we ate and chatted joyfully around the table, I kept thinking about how to tell the two without causing much alarm.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6ycUoqMEB
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5mtvXwNF5
"Hey, is Zoey going to come out of the shower?" Jungkook asked. "It looks like she's been in there for too long."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rGmq8OpR7
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatcyO14n96
I chuckled nervously as he sat opposite me at the table. "You see, the thing is, Zoey isn't in her room right now."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOUHCe2NIC
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGp44keNKE
Both Jimin and Jungkook looked at me, surprised by what I had just said.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX12FxUVfbf
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnybvwpNIG
"Are you saying you lied to Collins?" Jimin asked as he kept his voice down. It looked like he knew perfectly well the intensity of the situation.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RHqe0fvqb
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuScMyzQ5QA
"Yes," said Lee. "We were about to head out to look for her when Collins arrived with you two."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJTVDuv5jc
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3dlc9Tsxl
"Oh, so that's why you want us to hang out," said Jungkook. "You want to go out and look for her."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fX8lrYEXT
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfc0b3rMXn
"Yeah." I scratched the back of my head as I continued to laugh nervously. "We didn't want to use you like this, but since you know Seoul so well, you might help us out without Collins knowing."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzMaoq2H1D
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0sUabuIGP
"I don't mind," said Jungkook as he shrugged his shoulders. "As long as we get to hang out."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfrao9D1Jr
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcb0AMlXERv
"Thanks, you two are lifesavers," said Christine, almost squealing in delight.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjimb1GxbQV
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFtC6Q5805
"Okay, but why did Zoey run away?" Jimin asked.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zMdECbcRP
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApINVao9Mp
"She's angry," Mike answered. "But at someone, and she's out looking for him. We'll explain in more detail once we hit the road."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtbF9aXytF
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpCRbIM179
"Okay, now that that is settled, eat up," said Lee. "We're going to need all the energy we can get."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RUHJYmPgm
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy90y52aDAt
As soon as we were done with our supper, the rest of us Toxins went to quickly prepare ourselves to go out. I checked on the little black kitten and found it wide awake. I made sure to leave it some milk and closed the door so that it wouldn't wander off. Before we left, Christine and I went to Collins' room to tell him that we were leaving. We found him working on his laptop while he sat on his bed. He gave us a glance and waved to us, telling us that we should be careful out there. We told him we would and closed the door.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxytRdljeBd
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKgSFKKYAK
When we were all in the elevator, we were now free to talk.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZ26tFooME
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhMnG8cvMd
"So where can Zoey be?" Jimin asked.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRF4lqaDxZ
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zsdbpx4pK
Christine, who had her phone in her hand, showed him Johnny's photo on his Instagram feed. "Here," she said. "She probably saw this and thought of going there to find him."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKeoEcALj2
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFF52sekeWY
"Wow, the guy was really clear about his location," said Jungkook, who also took a look at the photo. "But we know the place. The problem is, there will probably be a lot of people there, and they will spot us the minute we get there."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtUsqdlwtt
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xLxRWTyUW
"Great," said Mike. The elevator now came to a stop, and the doors flew open. We all walked out into the lobby. "Do we have to wear masks or what?"369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnVOiCFzaC
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCi8c9lCn2
"Exactly," said Jimin as he chuckled.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVEiuPF42L
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmNDADJbDg
"Masks?" Christine asked with an eyebrow raised.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jvP4Q3ywL
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNfHMWxPRJ
"Not a mask that covers your whole face," said Lee. "He means the surgical face masks. If they don't want their admirers to recognise them, many Korean celebrities choose to move around like that. But some with very distinctive features might not always get away with it."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3r7Yl7eHa
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMUfdkXNd9
"And these two just happen to be with one of them," I said as we stopped in the middle of the lobby, looking at Jimin and Jungkook.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgf6t5DijYb
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9AayVs73i
"Don't worry, we have jumpers with hoodies, so it will be easy to hide our faces," said Jimin.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwGynvvAKs
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAT70wO81W4
"I suggest we get glasses too," said Lee.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZgY0SLz2A

"I agree," said Christine.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiTbo37F7d

"Who is this, Johnny guy?" Jungkook asked. "You talk like he's bad news."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAnHtxjQIx
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zmZ23rO2j
"He is," said Christine. "I'll explain on the way. The sooner we get on the road, the better."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe59kwNCCLh
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPaJh6nLK1

Without wasting any time, we all made our way out of the hotel, with the car waiting for us on the driveway. When we got in, Jungkook told the driver exactly where to go.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxk6w0fwTOg

369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsqvHnziIv
"I told you not to come with me," said Zoey as she also looked around. Unlike Mino, she had a hoodie over her head and sunglasses on that hid her face. If people noticed Mino, no doubt they would also be able to pinpoint her.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQCeRjhNus

Zoey couldn't help but look in awe as there were many stores, open bars, and restaurants. Not to mention the brightly coloured signs that were quite attractive to the human eye. There were many people buying things, some having a good meal at a restaurant, and others in the bar they had just passed that had a live band performing. So much was going on that Zoey couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed by what she saw.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0XcBbbRB2

"Wow, this place is so lively," she said to Mino beside her. "I don't think I've ever seen so many people in one place."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLwHEOKpEb
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPAOyVV4mU
"I'm surprised you haven't come here yet," said Mino, raising his eyebrows behind his glasses. "If you are a night owl, this is the perfect place to be in Seoul."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydY2TQq27m
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZ7AJt9zmF
Mino went on to explain how the street got its name from Hongik University, which happens to be an Arts college just near there. The art prowess of the school is how the street came to be showcasing all kinds of arts, from street music performers to dancers, as well as urban arts and underground club culture. Not to mention the graffiti murals painted all around the streets, which Zoey couldn't help but notice were quite fascinating. There were also many clothing and vintage stores.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07MVEsnaJl

"This place really is something," said Zoey as she noticed a performer with a guitar in front of a store. He gathered quite a crowd who listened to his beautiful singing.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgs4rs6vhwo

"It's good I came with you then," said Mino. "There is so much here that you can easily get lost. And the club Johnny will be going to happens to be really popular."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdRAcAn3JO
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIwyhHlCtL
"Oh, I was going to ask around for a famous club. How hard could that be?"369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFppaelAMl
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OjLTE9Zkh
Mino chuckled at how gullible she was. "That's the thing, Zoey. There are so many clubs here, no one can tell which is the best even if you were to ask."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1VjRVQjIV
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFi2lWVKDEV
"Huh." Zoey didn't know what to say. "Then it's good you did come with me."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChwDF3ofLL
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxzjz50ZNK
"While we are at it, we can check things out too."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG47ICyMm3V

"Good idea. Maybe we can get something to eat. I just realized that I haven't eaten yet."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvbLahHfKa

"Great, I know just the place to get the best meat."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyilEOsRoP
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9OIburfYm
"Seriously? Is that all you're thinking of?" Zoey raised an eyebrow at him.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ce0JxMeQU
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV74iicgXDU
"No, they serve other tasty foods too."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBj6MkurEKS
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPssvUMiRzn
Zoey stopped walking and folded her arms, looking at Mino. Mino stopped to look at her. "What's with you guys and meat anyway?" she asked.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfQ7zs6Oy0
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2XmW5IciN
"It's tasty," Mino answered slowly, hoping that that would be a reasonable answer for her.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVneI1HbI3
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTgjrGVTbQ
"Let's go. We still have time to goof around before we go to the club."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IpEavMlwq
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhlg9s7YzJ
Mino smiled. "Now that's what I'm talking about." He quickly took Zoey's hand and dragged her along with him to God knows where.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡue2jJhg3FX

Lee entered the car from the front and started to hand out the sunglasses she had just bought from a store. We were apparently close to the Hongdae neighbourhood. Not only that, we had no idea that the place was also close to YG Entertainment. We decided to put on our masks from afar so as not to attract attention. Jimin and Jungkook had already warned us that Hongdae is a very popular place and usually crowded at night, so it will be best not to be seen wearing them.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzRmOlJAhh
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiU6AGWDUYO
"I bought some scarves for those who don't have hoodies," said Lee, handing over some scarves.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEJl3n2H03
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXLucY9hW7
"Good," said Christine, who sat behind her and got a pink scarf. "Some of us didn't think of wearing hoodies tonight."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInyG3gvxKl
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTh0zUk1acU
"The scarves will do great," I said, as I passed over a black scarf to Daniel, who sat in the back seat. He took it and wrapped it around his neck, partly covering his face as he already had a black surgical mask and glasses on.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaapjGAq35
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrXxFpNbvT
"How do I look?" he asked me.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4yPkAslSH
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb39WjNlQH0
"Remove the mask," I said. "Those big, dark glasses will hide your face just fine."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57UscO3mKy
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCS2dIZgufd
Jimin, who sat next to me, had his hoodie over his head and a black face mask on. He decided to put on the dark glasses, and he turned to look at me.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDF7lbzVz4N
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgETVheJ3GA
"What about me?" Jimin asked.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3saqvWQIXF
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqStVP8gbA
"Perfect incognito," I said. With the large hoodie over his head, you couldn't even recognize him. I also have a hoodie, and I started to wonder if it would be able to hide my face.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihp2oNdRzS
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIm66SZuea
I put the face mask on and the hoodie over my head. "Do I need to wear glasses or put on a scarf?" I asked Jimin.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtgqDJfZZk
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzgfS6G5Lw
He looked at me and said, "You look just fine. No one would recognize you with just your eyes."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGR6jtsYpDi

Lee put on a scarf around her head and wore sunglasses. If you didn't know her very well, you wouldn't even recognize her.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3YzRHUvB2

"Wow, Lee," said Mike from the back seat. "You look like someone's aunt."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevAaK4Lali
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQt4mzpw4IR
Lee frowned at him. "You really know how to compliment someone, don't you, Mike?"369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0px0i6lNq
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCanBZIvTwq
"These dark glasses might make me look like a stinkbug." Mike laughed369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtI2pwok9G
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQcgq26Tgs
Everyone turned to look at him, and Jungkook, who sat next to him, said, "You honestly look fine to me." Jungkook had on a mask, glasses and a hoodie over his head.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlkuWzuKIY
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpjoNBsGXN
"I bet I look like someone's aunt, too," said Christine, as she also dressed herself like Lee.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDIdrt4Mqa
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQebIFCLSs0
"No need for me to say it then," said Mike, as he snickered onward.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDovnzIWiD
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HzsQKKAmD
"Okay, it looks like we are all ready to go," I said, trying my best not to laugh at Mike's joke. "I think it will be best if the driver drops us off close to the street."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuIvKxM6fz
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9R8KfvezEG
Everyone agreed, and the driver took us a little closer to Hongdae, parking across the street. It didn't take a minute to realize that it's such a busy and popular place, as I saw all kinds of people in different age groups walk around casually, visiting some of the stores we happened to see first on the street. Jimin and Jungkook weren't joking about this place. We'd all need to keep our eyes peeled if we were going to find Zoey in this crowd.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0QlPfUgyx
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Dl2RLlIup
"Goodness," said Lee as she looked out the window. "If we weren't out looking for Zoey, this would've been the perfect time to chill and do some shopping. I've seen some lovely dresses in that store."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNn9D092k4P
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYRLavqAzp
"Zoey does owe us some quality shopping time," said Christine as she also looked out of the window, sounding envious.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk31L1lnS5G
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7bYZQ47VY
"Let's not get too distracted," I said, knowing fully well how they felt. "If we find Zoey before she meets Johnny, we can do whatever we want. Providing that we have to keep an eye on her."369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡao2edhYILY
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡab5ot2w9ks
"Okay, let's go," said Lee as she stepped out of the car.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27esFmW0te
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLdswcA8U6
Christine opened the door to the passenger side and got out first, followed by Jimin and me. I wasn't only greeted by the cold night air, but there was also a certain vibing aura about the place. Something tells me that this vibrant place is the place to be when you want to have fun or a late night out.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSO0OSntxo
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8Sd6dOCTC
"Are you ready to go?" Jungkook, who stood next to me, asked. Daniel had just closed the car door behind him.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VLAgH7Zma
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrX1cX4iGjx
Gosh, I wish we were only here to have a good time. But I had to keep my mind focused on finding Zoey. I hope the others can tone down their enthusiasm until we find her. That's if she hasn't caused any trouble yet.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrIpPOjF2L
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMC0aQu7fIu
I gave him a nod. "Yes, you two lead the way," I said.369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEIso78gmH
369Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjhEg1zCiq
We crossed the road towards the loud and vibrant Hongdae Street.
