The hotel entrance was packed and it was a business standstill. All of the GOT7 staff members were gathered in GOT7's room, some anxious and some angry. However, JB was not there. 

"Where's JB?" the head manager asked when he finally noticed that JB was not in the room.

Across, in the other room, JB was comforting a panicking and crying Yena. Over Yena's phone, the IZ*ONE members were on a video call, and on JB's phone, the Mafia members Sugeun and Hyungdon were also on a video call.
