"Hey, come here. I'll show you how to navigate this place," Jeongin said as he gestured to the metal buildings.

Donghyuck nodded and tuned himself in to listen. Jeongin skipped on over to the nearest warehouse wall. Donghyuck followed as Jeogin ran a hand along the metal covering the corners of the warehouse to round them out a bit.

"This metal corner covering has a big secret!" Jeongin excitedly grabbed Donghyuck's hand and ran it over a certain metal spot.

"Oh..!" Donghyuck pulled his hand back. "This is in--"

"Braille!" Minho said. "There's a number and letter system, surprisingly. We actually figured it out after being here a couple months."

"And watching Hyunjin and Jisung get lost," Seungmin laughed.

As they had said, Donghyuck's fingers had brushed over faint little bumps in the metal. It was almost undetectable if you weren't aware of it. However, it most definitely organized the buildings.

"The first bumps are the letter, the next is the number. Most of us are able to get by from memory by now, but Minho-hyung and Changbin-hyung are the best at reading it."

"You know? I think it's a gunman thing," Minho winked as he again casually span his gun around his finger.

"We're at sector N, warehouse number 20," Jeoging explained. "We're moving diagonally, so we'll end up at sector F number 11 if we keep going. Then, we move straight left until we get to number 6, where the other gang said we'd meet."

"Wait, is this warehouse yard organized by the 26 letters of the alphabet, right? That means this yard is 26 by 26 in buildings."

"It is," Minho nodded. "Well, for this patch. There's also another patch of warehouses like this across the river. However, that side isn't abandoned and there's actually directions labeled there."

"Oh," Donghyck took note.

Mentally, the cafe-haired had begun to imagine the layout of the place. He could imagine it as a big grid and figured out the general placement of all the buildings now.

"If you're wondering, the Skids Crib is in sector S, warehouse number 25," Seungmin said. "It's easier to navigate from there. The rest of us navigate by using the Crib as a reference."

"Isn't it interesting though..?" Jeongin said, touching the Braille. "I wonder who decided to put these letters and numbers here?"

"No, it's not interesting," Minho shrugged. "Okay, well shall we hurry then? We have another person to grab."

"Lead the way, hyung," Seungmin gestured.

"That's the wrong direction, but okay," Minho cheekily grinned at Seungmin's mistake. "On with the traveling!"

Donghyuck thought for a while. He followed along of course, but now that he had an idea of what this place was like, he could probably navigate it decently.

I could probably slip away from them and run ahead to see if it's really Jaemin.
Then, I need to find a way to save S.Coups and Mingyu.

Donghyuck slowed his pace, still barely close enough to be considered with the group. That was until a certain someone noticed him though.

"Don't even think about it," a blade Donghyuck was basically friends with by now, ran down his back lightly. Jeongin whispered, "If you run off, the other gangs won't hesitate to kill you. Stay here or go die if you like."
