Jason burst into the police station with Lawyer Lee in tow. The officers were shocked to see the famed mafia don entering so brazenly at the precinct. He charged straight at Junwan who was stunned.

"WHERE IS MY SON?" he growled, grabbing Junwan by the collar. "WHERE IS HE?"

"Jason, please" Lee warned but Jason was beyond grief. He had sent his men everywhere, looking for Kanji but they could not find him. 

"He was bailed out by Anna Kirishima!" Junwan yelled back. "We're trying to locate her-"

Jason pushed Junwan away in fury. Anna Kirishima

They had looked up her credentials but to their shock, there was no one named Anna Kirishima in the database. She worked at D&D but no one had ever seen her nor the CEO of the company. Jason was usually a meticulous businessman and so was Kanji but how the hell did that woman dupe them?

"We searched the forest nearby," Junwan explained. "But there's no sign of him nor of that woman. In fact, when we were checking the CCTV camera, something strange turned up"

"What is it?" Jason demanded. Junwan sighed and ushered him to follow. Jason and Lee tailed Junwan to his room. The Chief opened a file on his laptop and turned it around for them to see. On the screen was Kanji, walking out of the police station. He seemed to be talking to someone but to their shock, there was no one with him. Jason watched as Kanji got into the passenger's seat of a car.

But his mouth gaped open when the car began to move despite having no one in the driver's seat.

"How the hell is this possible?" Lee asked. "There's no driver!"

"We're thinking the same thing!" Junwan stated. "We've all seen the woman bailing him out but no one can find her. It's like she vanished with your son!"

"I want her to be found!" Jason ordered. "Now! Otherwise my men will create havoc in this bloody city!"

"Are you threatening me?" Junwan shot back. "You're talking against the police force-"

"I DON'T CARE ABOUT ANYONE ELSE BUT MY SON!" Jason yelled. The officers outside froze in shock as they heard the two men shout at each other. The Chief of their precinct versus the mafia lord of the country and it was not looking good. If Jang Jason made a threat, he would make sure it was carried out.

"You want to shed the blood of innocents for your son?" Junwan spat.

"I'm damn sure that the Lin's have planned this!" Jason claimed. "They're the only ones who have a vendetta against us!"

"The head of the Lin family is in the hospital and the right hand man in prison," Junwan stated. "They can't carry out anything."

"But their men can!" Lee pointed out. "It's possible that Anna Kirishima was sent by the Lin's and they manipulated the CCTV's around the precinct. They have an IT team who could easily do that!"

"We will handle this!" Junwan hissed. But Jason was done with incompetent cops.

"We will handle this our way!" he declared. "My son's life is in danger and this time, we'll take all the suspects into our custody."

"You can't-"

But Jason threw him a dangerous glare. "Years ago, you stopped me from interfering in Hwang Junho's case," Jason reminded him. "You said that you will arrest him whereas we wanted to find him and give him a fair chance to speak. But your hindrance had stopped us. My best friend is still out there, fighting against whoever it was who killed his wife."

"Hwang Junho killed his wife," Junwan insisted.

"You don't know Hwang Junho then!" Jason scoffed. "If it wasn't for your interference, we could have found him and also helped him to find the real killer. But you made him a criminal, forcing him to hide and stay away from his family. So, I won't stand here and listen to you anymore. If I have to shed blood, I will do it but I want my son back. And you"

He stepped closer to Junwa. Both men were the same height, glaring at each other with disdain.

"You better hope that Kanji is alive otherwise I will burn down this city and turn it to ashes," Jason warned. 

With that, he turned around to leave. Lee followed his boss, worried about the consequences. If Kanji was not found, the Jang family would not hesitate to paint the town with blood.

Where is he? The lawyer wondered.

.

Back at the hospital, Gayoon was shocked.

"But Jina just told me that she saw him here!" Gayoon frowned. 

"He's not," Minho said. "He was last seen getting out of the police station but after that, no one can find him."

"How is this possible?" she asked. "How can he just disappear?"

"Anna Kirishima," Minho muttered bitterly. "She did this. She was the one who bailed him out and took him. Uncle Jason's men looked all over town but couldn't find her. No records of her exist. Nothing!"

"Anna Kirishima?" Gayoon frowned. Why was that name so familiar?

"Remember the time when you accompanied me to a meeting and exposed the landowner for his devious ways?" he asked. "There was a woman with him."

"Right!" Gayoon realized. "That busty woman? But why would she kidnap Kanji? And let's face it. Kanji is a mafia lord, right? He knows how to fight! It would be impossible for her alone to take him down. Even a skilled assassin will have a difficult time with him."

"True," Minho said. "He's one of the best fighters in the country. He was trained by some of the best martial arts teachers and I hate to admit it, he's better than me when it comes to fighting. He can take you down as well. So there is no way someone like Anna can take him down."

"But what does she want?" Gayoon wondered. "Money? Is she part of the Lin clan?"

"We could ask the other mafia," Minho suggested. "But he's too weak right now."

Just then, Gayoon's phone rang. It was Junwan.

"Hello, Chief!" she greeted. She listened carefully on the phone.

"What?" she exclaimed. "I'm coming right away!"

She hung up the phone and turned to Minho. "Jang Jason just made a threat to the Chief," she revealed. "If Kanji is not found, the Jang's will wage a war against the Lin's. They think that the Lin's kidnapped Kanji and they'll not stop killing the Lin family members until they find Kanji!"

"Fuck"

Trust Uncle Jason to act that rash. The man might look calm but was as hot headed as his son, possibly even more. 

"I'll tell Taejoon's team to watch over Haejong," Gayoon said. "But I'll have to return to the precinct."

She took out the ring from her pocket and said, "I've smuggled it out of that file. I'll be in a lot of trouble if the Chief finds out, but there's no other choice. We'll have to keep it safe. I'm giving it to you. Don't lose it."

Minho put the ring on his finger. It was his mother's relic and the fact that she was still roaming around the living, made his heart ache. I'll have to visit her soon, he decided.

"I'll protect it with my life," he swore. "But you...stay safe. Uncle Jason will not be very welcoming towards cops at this moment. Not even towards you."

"I'll be fine," Gayoon assured him and sprinted off. Minho returned to Mina's room where Junho and Jina were waiting. Mina was asleep.

"Dad, where's Uncle Kanji?" Jina asked.

"Uncle Kanji will be here soon," Minho told her. But Jina was frowning.

"What do you mean that he'll be here soon?" she asked. "I saw him."

"Yes, Gayoon told me that you saw him in the hospital," Minho sighed. "But we've searched everywhere. He's not here."

"I swear!" Jina insisted. "I saw him! He was right outside the operation room with me, Casper and Yumi! He even asked how's Aunt Mina-"

Minho was about to ask her more but Junho suddenly held his arm. The old man stood up and dragged both of them out of the room. He then turned on Jina.

"Jina," he began. "Did you, by any chance, touch Kanji?"

"N-no," she stammered. "I didn't. He was just standing behind us and I told him that both aunt and Mister Mafia were fine. He then went off to search for Aunt Mina. But he did look...pale"

Minho stepped back in shock while Junho was trying to collect his feelings. Jina just realized the gravity of her words. She was so engrossed in Casper's state and Mina's condition, that she did not notice at all. Moreover, Kanji looked completely fine. No injury nor any marks on his body. He looked as if he was alive

"A-are you saying...is he...i-is Uncle Kanji...dead?" she whispered.

The two men did not reply to her. Minho had slumped against the wall. Tears welled up in his eyes, his mind in a state of utter shock while Jina was trying to digest this news.

In a slow motion, she turned her head to the left and nearly burst out crying. 

Kanji stood there, pale and now glowing a little. He was giving her a sad smile but his eyes were full of pain and grief. 

Her Uncle Kanji was dead.
