Jina was cautious of the man who had Jiwoon hostage. She cursed herself for not bringing her gun but the damage was done. The man must have confiscated Jiwoon's gun and while Jaebum had his weapon, he was still very far away.

Then it hit her. Siwan! Siwan was still using his earpiece! She completely forgot about it!

But she was eyeing the murderer and her earpiece was turned off. She would have to get an opportunity to turn it back on so that Siwan could hear her. The man was in a mask and must be the accomplice of someone from within the orphanage just like the matron was. Thankfully, the man still did not know about their identities as undercover cops so she might be able to trick him.

"Look, that woman is part of idol Minyoon's security team," Jina cautioned. "If they find out that you've harmed her, the police will come after you."

"I'm not an idiot!" the man claimed, pressing the knife hard against Jiwoon's neck. "This woman was snooping around the archives in the matron's office and so were you. I've seen the CCTV footage from my hideout! That day as well, you were snooping around the matron's office and then ran into Haeji. You two were in the closet. How else do you think the matron caught you?"

CCTV? Jina thought. There were CCTV cameras in the place? But when she was roaming around the orphanage, she did not see any CCTV cameras hanging. Which only meant one thing.

The orphanage was secretly bugged!

"You two are trying to find the file that brat had, aren't you?" the man hissed. "Ma Wonho! You're trying to get your hands on the file."

"Ah mosquitoes!" Jina winced and slapped around her ear, secretly turning on the earpiece.

Back in his car, Siwan sat up straight when he heard the static on his earpiece. He was about to talk to Jina when an unfamiliar voice made him freeze.

"Ya'll are trying to find that kid, Wonho," the cold voice said. "But you won't find him. His corpse is rotting in hell now!"

"As if you know a lot about hell," Jina muttered. "But we're not looking for any Wonho. I was just looking for my glasses yesterday. And I think this lady was simply checking for security lapses! Some fans were trying to sneak in and disrupt the event!"

"Liar!" the man declared. "I have cameras in the matron's office too. I saw her taking pictures of Minki's file! You guys aren't doctors nor security personnels! Who are you?"

"We've already given our identities to the matron and the owner," Jina insisted "We-"

"Doesn't matter!" the man laughed. "You two will die here anyway. No one knows this place. It's completely shut off from the other places in this building. It was a good thing the matron discovered this secret tunnel which happened to be an old cellar but she hid it well. Instead of telling the owner, she informed the madam! And madam paid us a lot while we hid here, carrying out her dirty deeds…"

Madam? So the mastermind was someone else. But who was it?

The only possible suspect was the owner's daughter-in-law. Was she the culprit?

"And I know why you two are snooping around," the man said. Still pressing a knife to Jiwoon's neck, he took out something from his pocket and flashed it at Jina. It was Jiwoon's police badge.

"You guys are cops, aren't ya?" he sneered.

Meanwhile, Siwan was calling one of Jina's teammates. She had given him the numbers of her colleagues and had instructed him to call them in case anything went wrong. He dialed Dahoon's number who picked up immediately.

"Officer Dahoon," Dahoon stated. 

"Hi, I'm Kang Siwan, one of Detective Hwang Jina's friends," he told Dahoon. "She's in danger!"

….

Yoonmin spotted Hobin running after the daughter-in-law of the owner and frowned. Soobin rushed towards him, panting heavily.

"That woman is the killer!" she gasped. "I saw the tattoo!"

Yoonmin thought hard. "Come with me," he told her. 

They ran towards the stage where Minyoon had just finished another performance. Minyoon was surprised when his brother grabbed his arm and pulled him towards the back where Jaebum was also standing.

"What is it?" Minyoon frowned.

"That bony daughter-in-law is the killer," he told them. "Soobin saw her tattoo. I just saw that doctor going off with her but I don't know where they went."

"But why is Doctor Hobin with her?" Soobin wondered. "Is something going on?"

"Jiwoon is missing ," Jaebum informed them. "I can't reach her phone."

"We have no time," Yoonmin said. "We'll have to question the matron and get information from her. You're a cop. Can't you make her spill?"

"Not without an arrest warrant," Jaebum said bitterly. "We'll have to find evidence first!"

"Where's elder sis?" Minyoon asked. At that very moment, Jaebum received a text. He read it and was grim.

"Okay, we'll have to evacuate the place," he said. "We got the evidence we need. Wonho's file has been recovered. Jiwoon discovered Minki's fake adoption papers inside the matron's room. The dates on the papers were recorded after his death. But detectives Jina and Jiwoon are missing. They're still inside this orphanage but are involved in a possible hostage situation. The children must be cleared out. I'll have to apprehend the matron."

The others nodded as Jaebum went on stage to address the kids. Soobin glanced around and spotted the matron in the crowd. She was too far from them and near the exit...

"Attention, everyone!" Jaebum said loudly. "This place needs to be evacuated immediately."

The children were confused while the matron and the other teachers were also shocked.

"The teachers requested to take the children out of the premises," he went on. "Our guards will help you to leave the place."

"What's going on?" one of the teachers shouted.

Jaebum flashed his badge at the teachers and everyone gasped. The matron was sweating in fear and inched close to the exit.

"There is a hostage situation," Jaebum revealed. "And the children must be taken to safety. Kids, follow your teachers. Now!"

Suddenly, there was a movement in the crowd. The matron ran for it, pushing past the kids as she headed for the exit. Jaebum chased her but she was too far…

"AGHHHHH!" 

Someone screamed and lunged forward. Everyone watched in shock as Soobin tackled the matron on the ground, pinning the old matron underneath her. As a fangirl, she had years of experience, pushing and tackling obsessive stalkers of idols in various concerts and events. 

"I caught her!" she yelled happily.
