The doorbell rang, Injoo got up to open it. It was Jong Ho.

"Inkyung texted me. What's wrong with omoni?", he sat on a chair, looking dreadful.

"Apparently it seems we need to go to Shanghai as soon as possible.", Do-il explained the whole thing to Jong Ho.

"So this Roger Kwon guy is the threat? Let me check", Jong Ho started checking his contacts.

"This guy has many hotels in China", Jong Ho murmured, when Do-il interrupted him, "And a whole racket of firearms smuggling".

"We should hurry then. Inkyung-ah, come with me, we will take care of the tickets. Noona and Do-il ssi, you both take care of the luggage and meet us at the airport. Ok?", Jong Ho got up from his seat.

Inkyung took her passport and stuff and went with him.
Injoo went to pack their luggage.

"Injoo ssi", Do-il was standing outside her bedroom.

Injoo turned back and raised her eyebrows, "Uh?"

He came through the door and hugged her, "I missed you", as he closed his eyes.

Injoo just couldn't realize what just happened. She stood there like a stone.

Do-il held her by her arms and said, "I am very happy to see you again". His eyes at that point of time was everything. But Injoo as always was clueless.

"Do-il ssi, are you okay? I have never seen you like this? And why are you helping me even now? This has nothing to do with money", Injoo asked bluntly.

Do-il chuckled, "I will tell you later on. Now it's time to leave, we don't want to miss the flight". He patted on her shoulder and left the room.

At the Airport
Jong Ho and Inkyung were waiting for them to arrive, when Inkyung's mom called her.

"Omma! Hello! Are you ok?", Inkyung yelled on the phone.

"Inkyung-ah! Listen to me carefully. We are in a hotel, trapped by some men. I will send you the location. And don't call me yourself. I will call you whenever I find the opportunity. We might die, I just want to say I am sorry for all the suffering your appa and I gave you all", she said as her voice started trembling.

"Omma, we are coming to rescue you.. you send the location...."

"Someone's coming. Hanging up....."

"Omma...hello! Omma!", Inkyung's face seemed like it lost every drop of blood.

"Inkyung-ah! Is she alright? Look at me", Jong Ho held her shoulders.

"She is trapped, appa is also there. Jong ho-ya, what to do now?" Inkyung was teary.

Meanwhile Do-il and Injoo arrived.
"Inkyung-ah! Is something wrong?", Injoo asked after seeing Inkyung's pale face, as her phone beeped.

"Oh! Unni, mom sent her location. She also called said that they are trapped in a hotel by some men.",Inkyung said almost crying.

"Huh! God sure loves to play with us. Ok, we'll fight it too. Lets go!", Injoo said this gathering all her strength.

Four of them left for Shanghai.

In Shanghai
As soon as they came out of the airport they went to the hotel where Injoo's parents were trapped.

"We want to book 3 rooms", Jong Ho said on the counter.

"Won't two rooms be enough? Me and unni can share. And you can share with Choi Do-il ssi. Can't you?",  Inkyung whispered.
