Kapitel 55: The Seventh Case (2)

I lean forward, my voice gentle but probing. "Ms. Kim, did you recognize any of the men who approached your car?"

Min-seo shakes her head, her eyes distant. "No, I didn't. It was too dark, and everything happened so fast."

"What about Jae-hoon?" I ask. "Did he seem to recognize anyone?"

Again, she shakes her head. "I don't think so. He looked just as confused and terrified as I was."

Min-seo takes a shaky breath before continuing. "The men... they were so aggressive. They threatened us, yelling things I couldn't quite understand. Then they just... they dragged Jae-hoon out of the car." Her voice breaks as she recounts the memory. "Jae-hoon kept asking, 'Who the hell are you guys? What do you want?' But they didn't answer."

I nod, encouraging her to continue while jotting down notes.
