There was no mistake.

Though she wasn’t in her school uniform or gym clothes, it would be a tremendous mistake to not recognize her. From a block away, he stares at the young girl ever-so-casually leaning against the building while glancing over her shoulder.

With no time to waste, Yongguk rushes forward. “Haru!” He hisses once getting closer.

It was enough to gather her attention and she looked in his direction, clearly not seeing why she was drawing such of a reaction from the officer. But, did drop open at the sight – 

“Yongguk, are you kidding?” Reaching out, she tugged him forward so that they were both covered by the building. “Why in the world would you be in your uniform?”

He looks down at himself. “I can’t make arrests without it.” 

Well, that’s stupid. Criminals could see the blue from a mile away. 

“I guess we can’t help it.” Haru ends up saying before returning to her spying. “You’re late.”

“I didn’t expect to be meeting you here.”

Haru snorted. “Did you think I was joking yesterday?”

Yongguk was at a loss of what to say. In a way, he was hoping she was. 

“Since you’re in your uniform, this is what I was thinking – I flush them out and you arrest them.” She turned and smiled at him. “Agreed?”

“Shouldn’t there be more thoughts put into this?”

“Let’s not make it more complicated than it really is.” Haru comments before returning her attention back on searching for her targets. “I haven’t seen them yet…” Chances are the site has changed or the date has changed after yesterday’s interference. 

Oh, wait.

“Yongguk, look.”

The officer focuses in the direction Haru is pointing in. “…Haru, there are more men than I originally thought. We need to call for backup – “

“Sure, whatever you want, Yongguk.” Haru dismissively says before hurrying forward to shorten the distance between her and the small group of men. 

“Haru!” Yongguk calls from behind.

“It has to be them.” Flicking her hand, she urges Yongguk to follow her. 

Without any other choice, Yongguk does so. If Haru isn’t going to listen to him then he will just have to make sure he keeps her safe and out of harm’s way. 

“You want to know how predictable criminals are?” She asked with a confident smirk upon her face. 

Curious to the answer, Yongguk gives in and trails after Haru as she brings the two closer. Making their way down the street, Haru turns a sharp corner and something stands out to her. Eyeing the rundown building in the distance, she begins running. Once arriving outside the warehouse and without bothering to check herself, Haru motions Yongguk to discreetly look through the broken window. 

Giving her a bewildered look, he does just that. Leaning to the right ever so slightly, he finally realized what Haru meant. 

Just as she expected, the small group was there and most importantly, with boxes of ‘delivery’. 

“We need to catch them now while evidence is present.” Haru whispers in Yongguk’s direction. “If we catch them, we’ll manage to hurt Nabi too.” 

“And how do we do that?” 

Looking into the window, Haru looks for the entrances and exits. “We’re going to lock them inside. So, you get this side and I’ll get the other.” Offering a quick smile, she starts making her way to the opposite side of the warehouse to close that opening.  

“Haru!”

Halting in her movements, she gives Yongguk her attention. “What is it?” Her patience wearing thin. Why was Yongguk so worried – 

“Be safe.”

Taken aback by his words, she simply nodded. “Call for backup.”

“Got it.” 

Making sure to not make a noise that will alert them, Haru finally arrives and while managing to capture Yongguk’s attention, she motions him to start. She looks up to the one sliding door that stood at least 15 feet high and 8 feet wide and she grabs it and starts pushing. 

The loud creaking noise coming from both sides immediately and predictably alarms the group inside an

Taking two days to finish reading and it’s worthy! Can’t help from liking Haru and Yongguk, annoyed with Youngjae so damn much and imagining how the story looks like. Gang stories always being my liking and gosh, this is such a good gang story :)

Chapter 46: The moment I found the story I knew I would need to read it in one go, and surprise, I really did. All I have to say is that I loved every aspect of it, the characters, their development, the plot, the plot twists. I don't think I can name anything that I didn't like. Maybe the only thing that won't ever let me live peacefully is not knowing what happens with Jongup with the hospital (I have a suspicion it would have something to do with Insoo), but I'll take it as a challenge to imagine his fate.
Overall, I just want to express my biggest respect for you. You make the world a nicer place to live with your stories.

Chapter 46: This is so beautiful. (╥﹏╥) I haven't read anything like this before. Something that doesn't have a "romantic ship" and something that really connects with the real world. A slice of life and somewhat a story that can be portrayed as a life lesson. I usually search for stories like this, stories that you don't need to to cringe because the plot is so great but the "ships" mainly involved romantic relationships. It warms my heart that she overcame all of the obstacles in her life and she made the decision to face herself and her past. I hope that i can be just like her. I want to be someone who can be sure of her decisions. I want to be just like her, that despite everything that happened to her she still hasn't give up and still made the decision that she felt happy. I wish that i was as strong as her and have those people who supported her all the way. I wish i would be able to face myself too. (i wish it was sooner rather than later and i hope that i can do what i really love and what i really want. (。•́︿•̀。) )

Fightinggg!!! More ideas to come!! ~

P. S. This literally tug at my heartstrings. I also felt overwhelmed by the emotions when i was reading this. Hoping for more~

Chapter 46: I'm finally able to comment (srry that J'm so late) ^^
I have to say, the last chapter was what motivated me the most to upvote this story (actually even more the plot-twist of Youngjae arresting her) and I loved the ending. It made me feel so light and I love how Haru kept her character all the way but still matured in some way- so thanks for the amazing story. I enjoyed reading it a lot!
