Author's POV

Nothing really happened from Seungwon for the past few days which making Amber actually worried about the whole situation, it somehow feels like the calm before the storm. Amber tried to convinced herself that everything is going to be okay, she knew he will do something eventually. He already discovered her location and it is in a matter of time that they have to deal with Seungwon or they can escape from his grip once again.

Krystal and Suzy are acting a bit weird lately, like they're hiding something. They tend to avoid Victoria's question and just have a short conversation with her, not wanting the latter to know that they actually digging for more information about the man. Suzy's cousin can get a bit of information regarding to a man that they believed chasing Victoria and Amber, he goes by the name Cha Seungwon, they also get a bit of information about his relationship with Jung Woosung that everyone in Korea already know that he is the leader of all Korean Mafia. 

Suzy and Krystal promised to meet up at the library to discuss about this matter further during one of their spare time between classes. For the first time, Suzy asked to go on her own to the library and not wanting Jia to tag along which making Jia more suspicious about what's really going on and what they're planning. Jia decided to just followed with what Suzy wants and she just go to the cafetaria to buy some juice and snacks. Unexpextedly, Victoria come to the cafetaria as well because she is currently got 30 minutes break before she continued for her next class and she wants to grab some snack, she saw the unusual sight of Jia being all by herself sitting while nomming her food. Victoria tried to locate the other person that always by her side, Suzy, but she can't find her. Victoria then approached Jia's table with her small tray that has fries topped with melted cheese on her hand.

"Hey Jia. where is Suzy? it's rare to see you not with her. May I join you?" Victoria asked, Jia stand up immediately to greet the older Song and let her take the empty seat in front of her.

"Suzy is currently with Krystal. She said she wants to talk about something with Krystal all by herself so I don't really have anything to do and ended up here having snacks by myself. How about you unnie? you don't have any class to attend?" Jia said while taking a sips on her juice

"Yeah I've got 30 minutes break before my next classes start. Do you have any idea what they're talking about?" Victoria asked to have a conversation with the latter but suddenly her suspicion triggered after hearing Jia's explanation. "I am not really sure, but most probably it is about Amber unnie. they've been acting weird ever since that meet up with you at the cafe. They often seems to talk about something on their own and not wanting anyone else to know, I even asked Suzy once about it and she just said nothing which is quite rare for her to say that to me because she always tell me everything all these times. It's also weird that she contacted her cousin that works with the police, I don't know what they're talking about but it certainly something. Suzy barely contact her relatives since we got here from French. it makes me kinda worried about them, is something happened on your meeting back then with her?" Jia asked while worrying about the latter

"well nothing much. Would you do me a favor on keeping an eye on those two? I'm also worried about them. They seems to be distracted whenever we meet either during lunch or at other time. Please tell me if something is not right." Victoria said while trying to hide her alarming face upon hearing Suzy has been contacting a police with a calm smile

"Sure unnie. I will look after them even without you asked me to. Where is Amber unnie? she is not on a break?" Jia asked while finishing her juice

"No. she got full class today until later. anyways, unnie will have to go now. We'll talk again later okay?" Victoria said while standing up and Jia also stand up as she is also want to go back to her class because she had finished with her snack. She brought Suzy's favorite just in case the latter would be hungry before the class started later on. They bid a goodbye and they walk to their respective classes. 

Meanwhile at the library, Suzy and Krystal are fully immersed with their research for the man named Cha Seungwon, they discover several articles made by private investigators that the man is in a drug dealing business, human trafficking from China to all across the world, and also weapon selling but their main business anchored in human trafficking from China. They don't have much information or evidence that is strong enough to be at least to fill the report paper that they can send it to the police. Krystal is also getting frustrated with how clean Seungwon work is, making people disappear without trace, and he run his illegal business really well. Her sense of justice itched everytime she read an article that stated there is no enough evidence to put him down, she can't think of any evidence that offended the law and can make him worthy of even to be put in trial. Some people even said that it will be faster to hire a professional assassin to kill him instead of relying on the laws to catch him and put him into trial. They slumps themselves on the chair defeated, exhausted brain and they have to prepare for their next class. A vibrate came from Suzy's phone, it's from Jia that telling her that their class will start soon so it's better for Suzy to go back to the class right now.

"Krys, I've got to go to my class, it's almost started. Let's try to figure it out how to make some lead in this research because he is a meticulous man if I may describe. Look how clean he works on his crime. Okay, please be careful Krys. Tell me if something happened, I'll go now. Bye Krys!" Suzy bid a goodbye, leav
