"Oh shit," Jay muttered, preparing to start the van so they could escape the scene.
However, before that could happen, two of them had already situated themselves behind their van, making them unable to leave.
Jisung couldn't help but shake in fear, so Ren held onto him like a nurturing mother.
"What's happening?" he whispered.
"I don't know," Ren said in an equally scared voice.
"Are we in some kind of mafia shit?" Akira asked quietly, earning him a slap on the back of the head from Jaeyong.
"Sorry," Akira muttered. "I forgot that we're in a serious mood."
Jay squeaked as one of the men tapped the window with the bat.
"Open up," the man shouted.
However, Jay remained unmoving, not knowing what to do.
June, on the other hand, tried to assess the situation.
The car that almost collided with them...
The clothed men holding bats...
This seemed like the usual blackmailing scheme.
He had done this before.
"Open up!" the man repeated, getting impatient.
"What am I going to do?" Jay frantically asked.
"I don't know!" Zeth exclaimed.
"I've never been in such a situation before," Jaeyong muttered, almost on the brink of tears.
"Open it," June calmly said, making the members turn to him with wide eyes.
"What?" Sehun exclaimed.Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com
"Are you crazy?" Ren chimed. "What if they do something to us?"
June pursed his lips.
"If they wanted to kill us, then they would have done so already," June said.
"The fact that they're doing this means that they only want two things—a robbery or some kind of threat—a warning, perhaps," he muttered.
"A warning?" Casper asked. "For what?"
June already had a hunch on who it was. However, he didn't want to string hism embers along his issues.
The fact that they were being threatened at the moment already made him feel guilty.
"We're we just robbed? But they didn't even take our money!"
"That would have been better! Why did they threaten June instead?" Jisung asked.
Sehun turned to EVE with a small frown. "What was that?" he asked.
June sighed before raking his fingers through his hair.
He knew that he could protect himself. Minjun, too, would be protected by the amount of guards that his mom and Haruto had provided him.
However, his members were a different case. They were under the public's eyes—which meant that they were more vulnerable to both physical and mental attacks.
With that, June shook his head.
"We're all tired," he said.
"Let's go up, hmm?"
"Jisung," he said, holding the younger guy's shoulders. "I'll make you your favorite hot chocolate."

The members were now back in their dorm,already in their respective rooms after the traumatic experience.
June, on the other hand, remained on the couch, the television playing an ambient sound.
He sipped on the extra hot chocolate that he had made for Jisung. However, he couldn't really taste it with the amount of thoughts running inside his head.
He wasn't paying attention to the show. Instead, he gazed at the distance, trying to make sense of what had happened that day.
It seemed like an entire week had passed, but it had only been a day.
He learned clues from Haruto.
He reached a new milestone with his teammates.
They were presented with a new song.
However, that led his members to believe that he was the main character of the group.
And to top it all off, they were threatened on their way back.
June had all the reasons to believe that it was orchestrated by Laohu and Lin Zhi.
It seemed like they were getting more desperate for the briefcase. However, after hearing what it could contain from Haruto, June didn't want to give it away.
For some reason, he felt like the briefcase would have all the answers to his questions.
So, he needed to find it as soon as possible.
However, before he could start brainstorming once again about where the briefcase would be, Jisung arrived at the couch.
Jisung looked at June with wide and red eyes—almost as if he had just stopped crying.
"Bro," he called.
"Do you want to talk?"
