BBK Ch 10
by mimiIt was a 2f16859eb4 30-minute drive, but 47762af47a the roads were fa082217e7 deserted, probably because 08468e3829 it was past 3a60897514 midnight. Thanks to 0dd1630e79 this, Minho bbf60b4065 arrived at 363d30cc16 his destination 25ec8a7d74 in less e00c217401 than 20 3461ec6af5 minutes and 40f484c85b quickly punched 01dd3a0bbe in the 12180e380d key code.b45c3e14cd637089
The smell of 8a1b2e5739 savory pizza wafted ec20738a00 out as he f444f5aa31 flung the door b1e03c3511 open. It was bd2d8a1c67 a mouthwatering 25a2f6ffec aroma. The apartment 54639ce3f6 was brightly d9a867a2fd lit, as 194e0b24b1 if it 3458284c8b were midday, 64958462e4 and an b8b5b2be0e idol song 55edf7c1c1 blared from a28348d934 somewhere. Minho headed c733c03a2e towards the d2e669ad6f sound.538d41287893a8f4

Gyuoh stood 3f25f40268 in front c9dbfa0882 of the 24e76342cd sink, shirtless, 4dfc2943a5 wearing an 2f91fc1862 apron over dc10c5839f his sweatpants, c5cd28bef7 a bizarre 9018a0aebb combination. He held a 668227cbb5 packet of ramen, 41e7edb712 seemingly about to 364752f4ce cook it, standing 773f696b29 before a pot 96527eb139 of boiling water.645d56f54c542cf1

He didn’t seem surprised, as if he had expected Minho to come home. Minho turned down the loud music.ddffe5fe3dabb134

Gyuoh’s lips were curled into a wide smile throughout the conversation. He seemed amused by how easily he’d tricked Minho.e7583697488c8bd8
Minho narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Gyuoh’s attire. It was even more ridiculous than it had looked in the photo. If the apron had been made of thinner material, it surely would have ripped. It was that tight. And the pale pink pocket even had “LOVE” written on it.61f31caef14097b7

Gyuoh shrugged and f39f602a06 laughed. His sharp fc48b50d01 features, the 9e664d1183 exposed skin ce2b5dc844 of his 4436a9d311 neck and 4a0c905f58 forearms covered 1d681832c9 in menacing 29e0f300b0 tattoos, and 376b03ef03 his physique, 3560fe0af2 more toned 08a12e9e4d from recent 5a0892237b workouts—he exuded 835929101a a rebellious 04bcca17ea aura, though fc6dea3f2c his smile 30e803ec26 softened the 134339f569 edges somewhat.936512c692faf362

Minho lost 2c483338c4 all will a66752de75 to argue b2aa4a8cd0 at the 6aaca2347b nonchalant retort. He opened the 5ef3e25da0 pizza box without 0287218c58 a word. The untouched 52dac1756d pizza was e1ac5daf7a still warm. A warmer f1eeb6756e hand touched b9030dfa24 his shoulder.263229076c2a7c3a

“Honey, I’ll make you some delicious ramen.”9df09f3ee67a50ea
Slam, the bathroom door closed, cutting off Gyuoh’s voice. Minho finally took a breath and shed his clothes. If things had gone according to plan, he’d be at a hotel right now, facing the detective over a glass of wine, gauging the atmosphere for when to undo his robe.1e70bc01b16e8ae4

Despite the chaos, being with Gyuoh was much more relaxing. He wasn’t in the mood for sex tonight anyway. Sleep… I’ll just dump some work on Gyuoh tomorrow and take a long nap. Minho turned 6b3bd24727 on the 6e55709b23 shower and f01cb1ae7c stepped into 4ad0284322 the cool 670ec2c8bf water.dcd3ac9554d06b2d

In the end, they devoured three servings of spicy stir-fried noodles and a whole pizza. They also drank beer; while Minho sipped on one can, Gyuoh downed them like water. After finishing four or five cans, he declared it wasn’t enough and pulled out a bottle of whiskey from a display on the wall.c8b3401e773ab6d0
Then, they turned off all the lights, gathered in the living room, and put on a scary movie. Minho burrowed under a blanket on the sofa. Every now and then, Gyuoh, leaning against the sofa, would tilt his head back to take a swig of whiskey, momentarily obscuring Minho’s view. The darkness made Gyuoh’s silhouette seem especially pronounced.1de836eb061b0006

Maybe it’s because it’s so dark. Minho’s eyelids grew heavy, slowly fluttering closed. Drowsiness crept in, just like when he napped under Gyuoh’s watchful eye. Strangely, he felt certain he wouldn’t have any nightmares tonight.505160f107be9f12

One Won Gyuoh was 81e64431f1 enough to deal with, 52f20c6665 but with another large b48c6ee24d presence added to the e4a6937bef mix, his office felt 7695176b41 particularly crowded.

Mugyeong, holding a glove 00f375916a in one hand, tapped bf967aeb12 the toe of his b2ea6e8c19 shoe and nodded. Minho quickly fetched 1a0dd6ac64 the photos and d88c9915b4 spread them out 27e8a039f7 on the table. The topmost photo ca9bcf75e2 was a sight bffb64f184 to behold.7309cef90acd2e88

Below the crimson inscription, several young men knelt, bearing clear signs of assault. In the corner of the photo, a man with a menacing club smoked a cigarette. The harsh expression, the threatening posture, the way they had targeted areas that wouldn’t bleed profusely… this was definitely the gangsters’ handiwork.7ea97958b2f4e13d

Minho calmly added his e370b2a967 opinion and picked up b73798a56f another photo from the 4ffbe93376 scattered pile. It was taken at 51a3752af4 an awkward angle, likely 241f4e9ba9 through a broken window, c53ac4c21b with dark shadows around 4f46d06806 the edges.

“Assault, drug trafficking, sexual favors… these guys never do just one thing.”a8a13de96e09aa1c
The Seongtak gangsters 5ca8455be1 and the pseudo-pastor ab84d949c3 were exploiting the 95bfe0eb8f faith of their b51d9d288c followers. When things got dangerous, ca01edd88a they used the ordinary 75b2e670eb church members as a d0df063516 shield, only showing their 26d67ba985 faces when it came f286ab0907 to discussing compensation. Once they 7f3e7d2f2a had pocketed b057829d14 enough money, 71f40c01fc they would 92b2ceecf1 abandon the 4f3a2dd1b9 members and 87c6e7b7f8 flee.
