Hoku’s POV…

We basically rushed Seungri to the hospital; I had to explain to the doctors quickly what type of drug my father’s friend told me. Immediately the doctor’s eyes shot open in shock before they rushed Seungri to the operating room to pump his stomach. I was very worried but at the same time, I had other things that needed to be finished.

“Mr. Kim, stay with Seungri.” I asked slipping a beanie over my head before tucking my hair in it to hide it. Mr. Kim looked over at me hesitantly while I slipped my arms through my coat sleeves.

“Is it ok for you to be going along Hoku-ssi? Shouldn’t you call one of the guys to go along?” He asked as I sighed and shook my head.

“We don’t need any more rumors spreading or anything happening to them, better if I go.” I answered walking to the sliding door of the hospital entrance with him following me.

“Hoku-ssi, I would feel more comfortable if you allow someone to go with you.” Mr. Kim said once more while I sighed and turned to him.

“I’m just going to meet my father’s friend at the club to get the security tape, I’ll be fine.” I reassured hailing a cab before climbing in. Mr. Kim hesitantly stood at the entrance of the door watching as I left down the street.

“Where to miss?” the driver asked as I looked over.

“Lucky Guy club.” I said as he looked at me confused.

“Isn’t it a little early in the day to be partying?” He asked amused while I smirked.

“Don’t worry about it.” I mentioned back over as I watched out the window. I realized something and quickly pulled out my phone to call Stephanie.

“Hoku?” She asked the moment I answered causing me to smile.

“Hey, so my dad’s friend got some info? How is it going on your end?” I asked over.

“My uncle got some info that one of his colleagues saw Seungri in some kind of club last night, with a local girl.” She said as my eyes shot open.

“Any description on the girl?” I asked over interested.

“Unfortunately no, just that she has long, straight jet black hair.” She said as I sighed frustrated.

“Any noticeable scars or tattoos?” I asked while she spoke to someone off line.

“He said she had a tattoo of a star on the back of her neck.” She said as I nodded writing it down into my tablet that I was keeping with all the info I got.

“I’m heading to the club right now to check out the place and see if I can get the security tape.” I mentioned before she gasped.

“Alone?” She asked as I sighed.

“My father’s friend is one of the bouncers there. I’m meeting him there get her photo then send it to you for your uncle to do a scan on her.” I explained before she sighed.

“What about Jiyong-ssi? Have you spoken to him yet?” she asked as I looked up to the window.

“He doesn’t need to know anything. It’s better this way.” I mentioned before seeing the giant sign for the club in the distance.

“I’m coming up on the club now; I’ll call you with info in a bit.” I said quickly before hanging up, not waiting for an answer from her. I paid the taxi driver before climbing out and looking up to the sign. I took a step forward about to walk to the door before my phone vibrated.

“Ugh, who is it now?” I groaned annoyed picking it up annoyed.

“Hello?” I answered.

“Hoku! Where are you? Tell me right now.” Jiyong’s frantic voice asked as I sighed.

“Jiyong, I don’t have time for this right now. I’m onto something here.” I whined.

“Hoku, you tell me where you are right now, and don’t move.” He commanded while I snorted.

“Jiyong, I’ll be fine here, go see Seungri.” I mentioned.

“You know where he is?” He asked surprised as I sighed.

“He’s at the hospital where you visited your friend.” I seethed through the memories.

“Baby, I said…wait? Why is he in the hospital?” He asked confused before I slapped a hand onto my forehead.

“I don’t have time for this. I’ll call you later.” I snapped hanging up the phone before sighing. I opened the door to the club walking in hesitantly before a giant body blocked my way.

“Um, excuse me, can I help you?” he asked looking down to me before I saw his name.

“Hideki?” I asked as he looked at me confused before his eyes opened.

“Are you Ben’s daughter?” he asked as I nodded before he bowed his head.

“Sorry about that, it’s strange to get guests this early in the day.” He mentioned gesturing for me to come in.

“So your father said you’re helping that Big Bang kid out of his scandal.” He mentioned again while I nodded, walking into the semi empty club aside from the few drunkards that were still dancing around. We walked to a door off the side of the dance floor and into what seemed like an office.

“Here it is.” He offered turning on the television before pressing play on the VCR.

“I cut it so it only shows the time he was here.” He explained while I nodded and watched through the tape. The woman that Steph had explained earlier did come in, and with Seungri. They danced together for a while, made out in one of the VIP booths before leaving.

“Any Idea who she is?” I asked before he nodded.

“Oh yah, Ayame is a usual here. She always comes in with her male escorts.” He said as I wrote it down.

“Thanks.” I thanked him, walking out, slipping my tablet and videotape into my bag before I bumped into someone.

“Hey there baby.” A voice said as I looked up to see a drunk man smirking down at me.

“And goodbye.” I mentioned ducking under his arm before walking away. Almost away before a hand grabbed my hand and pulled me towards him. He grinded against my back as I elbowed him in his stomach causing him to groan.

“You !” Another man shouted as I turned to have a fist flying at my cheek, hitting me to the ground.

“HEY!” A voice shouted as I looked over to see Hideki already escorting the two men out of the club before he came back to my side.

“Here.” He offered his hand out for me, helping me up before I touched my cheek hissing.

“That’s going to swell.” He pointed out as I sighed.

“It’s fine, I need to get to the police department.” I said uncaring of the large bruise now covering my cheek. I charged out of the club and to the taxi still waiting at the curb. Everything was starting to add up so I gave YG a call.

“Yes.” A voice answered as I naturally sat up.

“Sir this is Hoku.” I answered.

“Ah Hoku-ah, we’ve been waiting for your call. How is everything going?” He asked as I sighed.

“Sir, with everything that I’ve found out, I think I know what’s going on.” I mentioned turning my view out the window.

“What did you find out?” He asked hesitantly obviously putting me on speakerphone with the now changed background.

“Seungri said he was at a bar last night drinking.” I started.

“Figures that boy.” YG seethed as I smiled.

“But the thing was, when I went to see him this morning, his breath had no trace of alcohol on it.” I explained.

“Impossible.” He whispered as I nodded.

“I don’t drink much but I know for a fact that if you even drink one bottle that you’ll have that twisted alcohol breath in the morning, right?” I asked.

“Yes.” He answered.

“The hotel room he was at, the culprit left a stack of photos she had taken of him. Some of which were posted in the newspaper, and some that we are lucky weren’t posted.” I said remembering the photos.

“Also a message was left on the mirror. It was a bit too smudged to read at first, one word was missing, but after one of my father’s friends who work down town in a club called me, it all added up. The message read ‘Nice meeting you at Lucky Guy last night, I had fun.’” I explained remembering the message vividly.

“Lucky Guy?” YG asked confused before I nodded.

“Lucky Guy is a rave club in downtown Tokyo.” I explained as they sighed in understanding.

“Steph’s sources then said they saw Seungri with a woman at the club. Seungri doesn’t remember anything after the bar, which leads me to him. My father is a CSI medical examiner. The symptoms that Seungri had told me he was experiencing this morning are all after effects of a drug culprits use to knock out the senses of their victim, almost totally knocking out their memory of anything after taking it. He also explained that the drug could cause bladder infections and worse of all, it was slowly going to burn his vocal cords.” I explained hesitantly hearing the sudden yelling on the line.

“I’ve already rushed Seungri to the hospital. Mr. Kim is with him right now. I’ve went to the club, retrieved the video and now I’m on my way to the police department for their help in identifying this woman.” I said finally as the line stayed quiet.

“I appreciate everything you have done Hoku.” YG said immediately causing me to smile.

“Like I said before, I’m doing this to save him and the guys.” I added back.

“So as of now, we have enough proof to make Seungri innocent?” the lawyers voice asked.

“Yes sir. I have the videotape, message on photo, and the photos she took with me.” I added proudly.

“As soon as I get to the police station to find out anything on her, I’ll contact you.” I pointed out as we approached the police station. Looking down to the photos in my bag, one stood out more than the rest. I yanked it out of my bag before my eyes shot open in surprise. How could I have missed that?
