As fit and healthy as a lot of us can be, climbing up the stairs was tiresome just after three flights. As soon as we reached the fifth floor, we stopped to take a breather. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKFWdzCuA2

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtUciTEVIw
"Who am I kidding?" said Zoey as she leaned upon the stair rail. "I’m so tired." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMe20a8KHvI

"Do we really have to go all the way to the manager’s office?" Jisoo asked. "Wasn’t Lee making her way down when we called her?" 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjF2U9tmYT
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHxwn2pmp2
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELUjChOkJY
"She was," I answered. "If you ask me, we can start looking on this floor, or we can split." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpycHbION2

"I say we stick together," said Seunghoon. "I’ve a feeling taking Johnny down will need some team effort." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXSEANV5d2

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xxuois8Kh
"Spoken like you’re leading the SWAT team," Mino teased. "Splitting up might be easier, but we’re only a few of us, so we need to stick together." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4h3ClxKqjC
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rltJebJYK
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrP3fjFsXp
"That’s fine," I said. "I really wish we knew where she could be." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0wvHRPbwr
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgpyPX3tK5
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUww4F3B6hc
We heard footsteps coming from upstairs. We looked at each other before darting down the hall, to hide round a corner. Seunghoon who was close, took a peek. The footsteps grew louder. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMRq2ZIq2j
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjAXujLZhT
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvo7PlYjTN
"Can it be Johnny?" Zoey asked. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazk2YaijuE
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5guYUudPQm
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsB3Dkc1Aw
"I doubt it," Mino whispered who leaned against the wall next to her. "That sounds like a lot of steps." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLKdVwWRpE
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6qYZGRQYB
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnCzgwmXLS
"Ssh," Seunghoon whispered. "They're almost here." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRPfYFAbzP
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OhrSBcb2c
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypmIdO95LS
We all became silent, and a lot of us held our breaths. The sound of footsteps became heavier. We could tell it’s the security guards. We were lucky they didn’t stop on the floor we are on as they continued down the stairs. As the sound of their footsteps grew fainter, we slowly started to relax. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqhKPNgOEe
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PhNwkIFxv
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5BI0Vw2sJ
"That was close," said Jisoo. "For a moment there, I thought they would come to this floor." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJNqPwIfnV

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqS75MFCOwE
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyx26KqGB8y
"Maybe you can call her again," Seunghoon suggested. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFipOYNJWdp
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHbyZ5kSMz
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5bSE1XssV
"Even if we do, and Johnny does have her, he'll know we’re coming for him," said Mino. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBCNdQcZFd
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgutVwCzS2o
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsDEg1tB9u

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetgtYfmKgM
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTgTmNxE5f
"I think we call anyway," said Zoey. "He obviously knows that the only way to draw us out is if he has Lee." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tLemtjiYE
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7i7g4Mlcu
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtazWieiv7Q
"Or he might call us instead," said Jisoo. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xCFTrraSR
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5EBx0DZyK
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gj7xLi4Ty
"Well, he would've called first if he wanted to draw us out," I said as I held my phone in my hand. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRu3GE9UvR
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uysefdJoU
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sdwMK45eu
"So what should we do?" Mino asked. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12QEKDaWKq
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6awTt78jhX
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRF2IbXPSLv
I put my phone back in the pocket. "We just have to look for her the old-fashioned way," I answered. "If we do call, he'll be expecting us and who knows what he might do." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGNguApUpQ
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzaJgGPdR5
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66meORAsf8
"So you want to catch him off guard?" Jisoo asked. "Will that even work?" 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjS6V47IMDt
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeridP7GJt
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1NdubVZbd
"It will be bad for us if we call. That way he will know we're agitated." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6ITR3UZzJ
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBHOVK07zC
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrirz9j0vW9
"I like your thinking," said Zoey. "But then that means, we've to work quickly and find them." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EijnblHZb
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLRJpa9elP
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cjI4aMPw7

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYsJiFJH8z
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldbCtrfSUC
"What’s on this floor anyway?" I couldn't help but ask as I felt like the place is pretty much empty. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTykUbSM1Cv
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUKjgI0Pux
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXycfqqlF6
"There are rooms that were once used for practice till they moved them downstairs. They plan to renovate and make offices here," said Mino. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgjbZDJzTq
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIpfYR7e5N
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBResqRvpRo
"Is this the only floor where renovations are taking place?" I stood in the middle of the hall to take a good look beyond. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYVDLPhiQV
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypXk11T0BR
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyav36J7DXZ

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvH91G7pjCH
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmc9dsPYWJ
"This feels like the perfect place for Johnny to keep Lee. The place is quiet, and it’s the only place where there’s nobody around." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyymB2lCoM
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfA89JoUgd
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgzbpZHxqd
"Well, the bodyguards should’ve thought of that before bypassing this floor," said Zoey. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1boODltUF
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcZWAsituC
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsv1Ysk4EA
"Maybe they did, and they couldn’t find anything to convince them that someone could be hiding here," said Jisoo. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtuMrEDroS
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuz3iy0I2et
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSstncqq2Q
"Well, let's see if we can find something," said Seunghoon. "But the rooms should be empty." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WBbKUq2hD
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcHNCccGcY
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvfaeJQ82U
As we were about to make our way down the hall, I stopped. I hear something. Mino who went ahead of me, noticed and stopped also. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjbyqpN8e5
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67mqExJbQs
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJrPr8pqSo
"Hey, are you okay?" he asked. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3Bw7uTsm7
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDEiePfXlj
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaTuysVZZx
"Everyone, hide," I said quietly. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfksyB4Fd1w
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIU4xv2U8V
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40RaFMTxuz
"What? Why?" Zoey asked, turning to look at me. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡei5zzWYcLU
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoN0Daxsl2
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSju7Bu7Rpg
"Someone’s coming," I answered. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzueKY4NXm1
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7WMycE6A7
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGG6Z9R0t5
We all paused. We could hear footsteps coming up the stairs. Likewise, we tiptoed quietly down to the first door down the hall. Seunghoon who is the first to reach it, opened the door and in a line, we all entered the dark room. The place smelt of dust and the air is stuffy. The windows haven’t been open for a while. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBk9wjZ3Kl9
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmwtsjiRHB
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRGxSzKaBY
Seunghoon is the last to enter and closes the door behind him. We’re almost in the dark, but light came in through the translucent glass window on the door. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7qKu7VDgO
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7ivSJ3cu7
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFla2RSs3fx
"Can we turn on the lights?" Jisoo asked in a whisper. "It’s dark in here." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJ91VXaqmS
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbWUvfcI46
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWwvsS3k7k
"We can’t," said Seunghoon. "There’s a translucent glass window on the door. If we turn on the lights, the person down the hall will tell someone is in here." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31mAqv0xKx
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoCFIn8cah
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48pJxaY4OI
"Ssh," said Mino. "Do you hear that? The person is coming." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmw4C7ucO7
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIYSyG5A1U
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnueF4WRSg
We all kept quiet. Who could it be? Could it be Johnny? What if it’s one of the guards? If it’s the latter, we'll be in big trouble and will be escorted back to the studio. If it’s Johnny, we need to be careful. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwmBYKDfjg
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzs4pP7Ytg
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FZl7aSrVj
Seunghoon slowly opened the door so as not to make a sound. The rest of us stood there, waiting for confirmation if the person out there is a threat. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8Y837dzCz
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCO3thYAcC
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu59N2hOMiS
We hear footsteps come closer, and I see the person through the glass, bypassing the door. I turn to look at Seunghoon to see any reaction on his face. Before I ask, he already made a move by drawing the door wide open and stepping into the hall. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdmzIGRdYG
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUsIV1iR2D
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGasNsvU0B
"Hyung?" Seunghoon called out. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTccgXCHcjS
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweRLkAsutX
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHLcWabQJM
"Goodness, Seunghoon get back here!" Zoey whispered to him. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9D30vCyjg
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvSiSInMPn
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeJiCuDNuQ
"Seunghoon?" came a familiar voice. "What are you doing here?" 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSBc9LyQge
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTFpbJpwbV
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMvBvRadVY
"Don’t worry, guys, it’s GD," Seunghoon came back into the room to address us. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyXCdSrIPR
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73XhhSXzKO
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3waCmvZTa

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaqZtOpuzw
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BQhbSQh5Y
"Oh, oppa," said Jennie stepping out of the room to join Seunghoon in the hall. "How did you find yourself here?" 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9VO2awKob
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKl6y7zWFrj
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJ8g5OuFYz
Mino, Zoey and I also stepped out of the room. G-Dragon stood there in a red fresh paint jacket with a black jumpsuit and a white shirt on. He’s just as surprised to see us. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VBQqKaHGW
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkR9YplhMl
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzN6Mwn3Tr
"What are you all doing here?" GD asked. "Aren’t you supposed to be recording in the studio?" 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhpQ8HUue7
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnN56wD51W
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9vG2ZCLnX
"Well, to answer your first question, we’re out here trying to look for Johnny," said Zoey, folding her arms. "For the second one, we finished recording the song." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXRkG3snQu
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtucdKvgX4P
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8eJMOvXEB
"Oh, that’s good to hear. But I thought you were kept under guard." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgKIJydu4s
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWVWzVH6nv
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1s5P26qq7
"We were," said Mino. "But we had to sneak out to find Johnny." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9v7OWmxms
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZntrY5url
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7mP4RTQDW
"We think Johnny has Lee," I added. "She never came back to the studio. When we called, she said she ran into him, and she sounded like she was running away." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8qTn8u7G9
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsMnQDC1k9
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEmJxViy1w
"That’s not good," said GD. "I also came up here to try and find him." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLNsxbgVyu
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJX48VP2nCR
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaXUmuRFaI
"Really?" Zoey asked, raising an eyebrow. "How can we be so sure that you're looking for him?" 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FQw4wVx7I
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxLV8KktaJ
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTn6aZlBQe
G-Dragon and so did the rest of us turn to look at her, wondering why she could ask such a question. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXasOWWL1m
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5OFaPK4ag
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxwfZ7UG0e
"Don’t get me wrong, guys," said Zoey as she noticed the looks, "but didn’t GD bring Johnny here in the first place? So how can we tell you aren’t just going to lead us into a trap?" 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCtbmcNPUb
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJqU08SMq0
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XRqWrBa0n
"And why would I do that?" GD asked, not believing the words coming out of Zoey’s mouth. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3BGCe9ylR

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5j0xsyvQ8

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9zk3rKu7t
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZV53CbKkr
"Yeah, right. We warned you about him, but you didn’t listen to us, did you?" 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOYa8FiTEg
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbxaiETBIv
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaE6UQou5l
"Zoey, enough," I intervened. "Telling him that we told him so right now isn’t going to help us find Lee." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGi7QlWC2om
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJSGrKVQ2j
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzi1gCpa4vJ

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM01vjomQCv
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwU40rrNXP
"Wasn’t the crowd he drew towards us last night evident enough that Johnny is crazy? Yet you brought him here on the grounds that you two are friends." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oNKe0Pg6M
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcIpEF4tqt
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtKOhWxqIC
"Zoey, calm down," said Mino as he came and held her shoulders. "GD never knew Johnny would take things too far. We should listen to Sam and find Lee first." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoONj945pW
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rdfl4CoNg
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGY9K2yrtcX
"Fine," said Zoey. "But after we find Lee and Johnny should at least be arrested, I’ll make sure to claw your face out, GD." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfXVgYphWW
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLMborvfAE
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimCMOnc3df
"Won’t that also get you arrested?" Jisoo asked. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXr3vxpyHqN
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5R3V8e0q5i
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHUZKqkQ27

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYa90WxypDC
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aM4q7Yefi
"With that on stand-by, what are you doing here GD?" I asked, turning to look at him. "Did Johnny communicate with you?" 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaKWXthqwP
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0baT2ZxnUT
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2QuM3cCHz
"No, he hasn’t," he answered. "I tried calling him a few times, and he hasn’t replied. I thought of looking for him, but it's been difficult since the guards don’t want anyone wandering around. I managed to get away as I was held in the lobby. Likewise, I thought of coming to this floor, since the rooms aren’t being used." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69XBapAx6w
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgEuxnyWL5
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4pljrfjpD

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssYG3iz215
"Well, they’re definitely not in this one," said Zoey as she looked at the door of the room we were hiding in. She started her way down the hall, bypassing G-Dragon. I noticed the look she gave him. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ak0zdqcJN
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb76P4MSrif
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9K5GAC68PI

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjnNePywax
GD and I join the search. Seunghoon and Jisoo had already entered one room. We approached the open door, and the lights were on. There isn’t much in the room. There were a few things lying around and furniture that had been covered with white cloths to prevent the dust settling on it. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkbrrjyCxx
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaj047ZEo1K
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsqWpy0HA9
GD went ahead, and I followed him to the next room where there’s Mino and Zoey. There were boxes and furniture covered in cloths all around. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mveEGNxtL

GD went on ahead, opened the door and turned the lights on. He stood there as he looked, and I joined him. There’s nothing much to see with only two carton boxes and pieces of paper on the floor. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNrnUrIkeN
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDyRd03k0r
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgJDMkIb24
"Nothing, here," he said as he slowly started to close the door. Then I caught a glimpse of something through the corner of my eye. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUdJJ0k9k8
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3p1tJVc4i
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1fmM3MuQj
"Hey, wait," I said as I also held the door to stop GD from closing it. I draw it wide open and look inside the room. My attention is drawn towards the two large carton boxes. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfWBx6Jh71
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqnImto92g

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgT9ffviiY1
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29sr6X3udS
The box did move. My eyes widened, and I turn to look at GD, whose mouth is agape. He saw it too. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3YRwsq0eC
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eBbMnWLxD

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPOF5I6krj
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLGbhEqtsV
Before I could go any further, I felt G-Dragon take hold of my hand. I stop and turn to look at him. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9l5sMth3Qr
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfS0V3FbJYc
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mMfgfzX5i

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQHTocKlCI
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2m4W8RhkN
I nodded. I turn towards the box in the room and the both of us slowly approach it. We pause at the same time when the box moved again. We continue our approach and as soon as we’re close, I lean forward and find that the top of the box is covered. The box gently shook again. I draw out my hand to uncover the box but G-Dragon is quick to grab it to stop me from doing so. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojHmDPAqSQ

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiXAxMm8Oa
A soft little ‘meow’ came from inside the box. I gave a mocking look at G-Dragon, and he scratched the back of his head, embarrassed. I went on to open the box and inside it is a small, black, furry kitten. It looked up at us with its cute, sparkling green eyes and meowed again. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkFxIFB9yc
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGNAbHt4HD
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMekUnnl88q

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgLXDmAwcT
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvi3jNqgn8G
I bent over to get it out of the box. At first, it backed away into a corner and I knew I had to let it trust me first. I gently let my palm touch the top of its head and started to pet it. Soon enough, it purred and rubbed its ears around my hand. I soon brought in my other hand and lifted it out of the box. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtrL1wy0ZI

"Hey, guys, have you found….?" Jisoo appeared through the door and as soon as she saw the kitten in my hands, she got excited and quickly came towards us. Mino also came in and had a confused look, wondering why Jisoo reacted that way. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkP96LCKwZS
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LTUC2rL3K
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTcEbh1g6t

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ698Quqyacl
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfGjuoakRF

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquOgdWiDT7
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVJRPerSKG
She ran past Mino, almost knocking him over for someone who is smaller than he. Seunghoon also appeared at the door, chuckling. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzf0urdqUm
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7beYafMnX

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xg9dkkQW7
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5UnjbmQlU
I gave Zoey the kitten, and it didn’t resist. Zoey and Jisoo continued to admire it as the kitten looked back at them, unaware of the attention it’s gained. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnBsvscgmf
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rlLHZw971

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9M2wpXDaVb
"I agree," said Zoey, as she lifted it to take a better look at it like it's a precious gem. "Just look at it. It's so cute. It will be a crime to leave it here all alone." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBS88s6vzNT

The four of us with the kitten in my arms left the room and continued our search. We looked in every room and no luck so far. We are left to search on the other side of the floor. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KnRCGhy5x
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiu1RDbKlS
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡym67L3ixNy
We made a turn going to the left and Seunghoon who led the way, stopped in his tracks. Even when I'm not close to him, I could tell his body has grown tense. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4znJ7SYUR

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNozWMXgWI5

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6ZDiy0W1y

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVtvxPa6dq
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡit07pqOJ7Z

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUx4vVrwj5
"Goodness," said the guard as he scratched his head. "I was coming down the stairs with her. I told her to go back to the studio on her own since the other guards had called for me. As I was climbing up, Johnny appeared on one of the floors and ran past me. I tried to stop him, but then I lost my footing and fell a couple of stairs. I'm afraid I might have twisted my ankle. Likewise, I told Lee to run as soon as Johnny showed up." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbB5J7BPL42

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMibK377lM

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qSll2snSx
"We found Johnny above the stairs on our way down," said the guard. "He might have chased her up to this floor, I’m not so sure. But I couldn't move quickly because of my twisted ankle." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWf8fi9ADL

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡig2F9BQTRg
The guard shook his head, realizing that talking us out of it is pointless. "Fine." He dug into his pocket and removed a black walkie-talkie. "Does anyone know how to use this?" 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeILbeYhPU

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicjgsjM8E8
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPL7DMynORS
"No, but if someone like Johnny wants to go around unnoticed between floors, that stairway is the best way. They are usually locked and only opened during emergencies. There’s a storeroom in the underground basement. He might be hiding there." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjNDfoKyCC

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xEe2QCaSR
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmMeURYJ9U
"He shouldn’t know that we’re out here looking for him." I answered. "GD, quick, answer it." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzQpwJkfx4
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuszEQWTIS
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdXW6cAbkP
GD slid the call button to the right and put the phone to his ear. "Johnny, hey? Where are you?" he asked. "I’ve been waiting in the lobby." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWI3bucJbW
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsRPXFrVJG
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBRyhnkZUO
We could Johnny loud and clear as he responded: "I’m in the underground basement. I thought I would join you in the car park outside." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbWLWPqXrK
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEl622paVWN
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNZRf1blRM
"You’re in the basement? How did you get there? The whole place is on lockdown. They say someone cut the power and the guards are looking for whoever is responsible." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5aOMsSWZZ

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FxnzBkcmU
Zoey rolled her eyes and I prayed she wasn’t going to mutter out something stupid, but she didn’t. I wish I could blow out a sigh of relief, but that will only draw Johnny’s attention. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwJCssfa0o
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaDylib5np
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTJlh9inKP
"Are you still down there?" GD asked. "I can come join you, and we can walk to the car park outside. That’s if the guards will allow us to pass through." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXV5tsTQ5N
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9P6PHHo9bo

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcewsUyegrz
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWssMPYB8j

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxB277a6Te

Zoey turned towards the emergency exit door and drew it open. She made her way first down the stairs with Jisoo and me following behind her. Mino and G-Dragon were last, with G-Dragon closing the door behind him. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZ0dUzeV0p
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduzZntj7FH
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphaYnZogXb
We make our way down the stairs, and we were much quicker this time. Before we reached the ground floor, I stopped everyone. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYAQ5JnCQb
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgam5inBmS
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLCwa5AO4Q

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2JDj23Ik4

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTHD3WKa74
"I’ve been down there a lot, so we can try to move around while G-Dragon keeps Johnny distracted," said Mino. "If we do find Lee, we can help her." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrZqBlwtRz
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWBwRSXCRK
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kr3lFynjo

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXA8QjEraR
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxN7WOLl4JZ
"Maybe we don’t have to," said Jisoo. "Once we have Lee, then we can call the guards to come to the basement." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtQuZYnnAg
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlVltkk7mF
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBnrzUxpX8

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjX9DT5GdwW
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSS0Aak9cb

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNVGHmTuWC
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqACycpggKz
We all turned to look at her, and she had her arms folded with her nose high up in the air. Oh, boy. I think I know what this is about. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOz6otUjPH
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeL27QHd3In
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5pzNUtj0L

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDchwhRwGOJ
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzB0GHRUUfE
If I were Jisoo, I wouldn’t have asked that question. But she doesn’t know Zoey like I do, so she better prepare to get her mind blown. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsgdGOyAHa
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSyJUFWOew
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExfNgrz84k

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBtK7869Vv
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHn2SIhNvpW
Jisoo looked at Zoey, dumbfounded. I turned to look at Mino and GD who like me, didn’t seem the least bit surprised. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡad6RAu5ELh
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXykDtCBRhT
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWkZrzB0Tf

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUPBws7LGY
"I know we said if Johnny does annoy us, especially with the album, we would then teach him a lesson," I said. "But right now, we need to find Lee. Dealing with Johnny will have to come later." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8Ib7QfuKy
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCgckV0dtO
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSKG244FoB

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJ3OEB5lVT
Zoey sucked on her teeth and continued to lead the way down the stairs. I really need to keep an eye on her. She might have agreed not to do anything, but that’s Zoey. A moment later, she’ll find herself doing what she intended to do, and I’ll be left to deal with her mess. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11DJw9uZyY
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgP9KcGXkww
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIbTajdrc2
We are now in the basement and before Zoey could open the door. GD stepped forward. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5x91Hva2ft
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFvPniItMG
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHVsDDoleE
"Let me be the first to go," he said. "Just in case, he's wondering around the basement car park." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHh63kBxD0
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObkEvIg19K
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOc2D8RQVTZ
Zoey gave him a nod of her head showing that she understood. She stood aside and GD went to open the door. He did it slowly to look around before fully stepping out. He turned to us standing by the door. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kIJkjgk3O
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqscUY9Z6Y5
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv24yHFJbfA
"Don’t come out until the coast is clear," he whispered to us. He looked over at Mino. "You come over by the door and keep a look-out. You know where the storeroom is." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYRtiMQJ9b
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPe9VEq5Y8L
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJg7yx1G6A
Mino gave a nod and went to stand by the door. G-Dagon soon walked away, leaving the door slightly ajar. Mino closed it for a bit so as not to be seen, but left a good amount of space for him to take a peek. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTnEfLm50b

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpweILpjlN
GD walked away from the door and made his way towards the cars packed on the other side. He looked around and there seems to be no sign of Johnny. He thought of going round to the exit when he heard Johnny's voice behind him. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouXL0LU2SN

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasmioIEan5
G-Dragon turned and found Johnny coming from behind one of the pillars. He had a smile on his face like nothing is going on and GD felt his insides turn. What did he get himself into? 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47mClGVEio
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgozynJGpTK
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP65rMi6udA

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1bioQPKRw
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Lfo80HczE

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkVXiBD6UN
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanSwJRPLrf
"Okay, let’s get out of here," said GD. "The basement sometimes gives me the creeps when I stay too long." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRz0g7YUhA4
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MC3uRaAw4
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeHwDcqAPN
"You say the place is on lockdown," said Johnny, before GD could turn around. "Will we even be allowed out of here?" 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVa7P4DXCk
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKLyO89pOJ
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1rbPkwRd6

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjA6Z6pqVq
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdCkSa1FXv
"Wow, things must be hectic, huh? You’re right, we better get going. I also wanted to see The Toxins, but looks like we’ll have to do that at another time." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NNnRyjNWP
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoHVUmnKUG
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ113Bexah9z
"Sure, let’s go." GD turned to lead the way and Johnny followed alongside him. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrDv3thTQc
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsl7JuNfnFq
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXpJ7UFC4Q
Mino had seen Johnny as soon as he called out to GD. With the pillars and the cars in his sight of vision, it was hard to see them clearly, but he could tell they were walking towards the exit. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBbyl8m3aq
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRlTAw3WR9
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2hYgGYhX8

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzimuYWrZVj
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWh6pBElKy
"Pfft," Zoey muttered. "Where the heck is he going when the guards have this place on lockdown?" 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNg5GdltqPb
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0ifo79sHx
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhxnfuIqyK

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqANbeVbwoL
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQwgjmK8wr
"Okay, they’re almost gone," said Mino as he slowly opened the door fully. "The basement storeroom is on our left. Follow me quietly." 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHouKziGAG
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1lJYNeVm8
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweQGE8qA76
Mino looked around first. He signalled with his hand to the others to follow. He walked out. Zoey and Sam followed, then Jisoo. Good thing about the place is that they could easily use the parked cars for cover. They walked up the curb with the cars facing them and bending over so as not to be seen. They were just about to reach the door of the basement when Jisoo suddenly fell on her knees. The rest stopped advancing and looked at their fallen comrade. GD and Johnny on the other side stopped walking too. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKc6YVKgJ7u
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2PY97jbsD
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2bzHfDEqP

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1FycGQfdL
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQtPYJe936

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZY9wJTvMeK
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4A9kpfTEZ

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJPnu2L3i0
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDdtA740uy
"Goodness," Sam muttered as she quietly but quickly came back for Jisoo. She squatted next to her. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHujA6jw2Y
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXjeWMciEj
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Wrs5rpxoW

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc16DBsaLGy
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnXwloUiQZ

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3dKTUXbvC
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVSRHsqaXr
With Sam helping her up, but careful enough not to stand upright, she and Jisoo started to make their way to the others. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdq2KkxAU98
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfkSFL07Ka
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJR2FPIofX
"I think I’ll go check it out," said Johnny as he fully turned around to make his way back. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9ESjyNZIx
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGzM74gAED
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibG3DAltmC
Shoot, GD said to himself. He has to stop Johnny before he spots the others. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTeVChPIkz
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsMyInyGvP
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSgZsYiBr1
"Come on, it’s probably nothing," said GD as he turned to watch Johnny slowly walk away. "What? Do you think there’s someone ready to jump us?" 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqopLg56jH
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QU9yeySEP
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJUGu39xfh

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBUGHbU1Jf
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKv6oaBmbM9
Sam and Jisoo managed to get to the others, and they quickly made their way to the door. Johnny was close and almost got to the storeroom, but he stopped. GD came up right behind him and prayed that Johnny won't spot them. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITepOza8sN
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWYJSWmoHX
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuseprV8Mx

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1nCP8uADT
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFSfA4T0Co

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmfO1R81Qh
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5KoSCnLsS
Just before the storeroom is a parked blue Sedan. That’s where Mino and the rest hid, hoping that Johnny wasn’t going to reach the car. If he did, he was definitely going to find them. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0rAd4uFEx
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6oBiFlc1o
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJJcigSwJZ
Mino bent his head to look round the corner of the car’s rear. GD and Johnny were going for the exit now. And he thought it best that they leave for good. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfepyrjSeBO

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnBoXgqwd2
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygWEoyQTFo
They continued to sit there on the gravel while Mino bent his head now and then to check. Finally, he saw GD and Johnny walk through the exit. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpybNsmXp6
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6GnD3urvd

357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNc8cSsFRbU
"Tell me about it," said Sam. She removed the walkie-talkie she had in her pocket and went to the second channel. 357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5lGE7P4rw
