From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show-Novel

"How come I've never noticed her before?" Jia clicked her tongue as the two of them hid behind a wide post.

"Her presence must be really diminished," June whispered back.

"Well, what are we going to do now? Are we going to barge into her room?" she asked.

June shook his head. "I don't think that's legal."

"Technically, following her isn't legal, too," Jia said. "Should we just do it?"

June thought for a while, weighing the consequences of breaking into the Stale Girl's room.

To hell with it.

"Let's do it," June said, bringing his hand up to Jia's hair.

Jia froze and felt a nosebleed coming as June ran his fingers through her hair.

"What are you doing?" she asked, her heart palpitating.

"I need this," June smiled, taking out the bobby pin from her head.

With that, he turned back around and surveyed the area to see if anybody was there. Once the coast was clear, he went in front of Stale Girl's room and quickly picked the lock.

Meanwhile, Jia was still recovering from June's initial action. He already had multiple offenses on this day only! It seemed like he was deliberately making her fall deeper in love with him!

Just then, she heard a small click, making her turn around.

There, she saw June with a mutilated bobby pin and an open door. She was confused about how he was able to open the door with such a technique; however, she decided not to question him in the end. Right now, she accepted that June was just great at a lot of things.

The two of them entered Stale Girl's room and were immediately bombarded with her signature scent.

June covered his nose and shook his head. The smell was even worse than that of Akira's feet right after their dance practices.

"Dang," Jia whispered. "What kind of place is this?"

The interior was similar to their dorm room; however, it was dark and decorated weirdly.

From the moment you enter, it was already apparent that she was a fan of June.

Jia couldn't really blame her. If June saw her dorm, then he'd also see the posters hung up in her hallways.

They navigated their way into the room, but June quickly halted once he saw her identification card lying on the cupboard. He quickly retrieved it and inspected the hard piece of plastic.

"Kim Sua," he muttered, showing the card to Jia.

"Yeah, I've never heard of her," Jia whispered.ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

They continued their way inside, and June felt creeped-out with only seeing his face around the room. Even the picture frames on her shelves were filled with photos of him. It almost seemed like her world merely revolved around June.

"Where is she?" Jia whispered, finding it strange that they hadn't seen her throughout their journey.

However, as they got near a room and heard the sound of water flowing, June inferred that she must be in the shower.

The room's door was ajar, so June's curiosity got the best of him.

The first thing he saw was a plastic door, where the flowing sound of water was coming from.

This must be the bathroom.

However, his thoughts quickly strayed away once he saw what was inside the room.

Jia froze as soon as she entered.

"Goodness," she whispered, feeling a shiver run down her spine.

The room wasn't any different from the living room. It was still filled with June's photos.

However, what made it different was that these photos weren't released publicly. These photos were seemingly taken when June didn't have an official schedule.

However, before he could internalize what was happening, he saw another atrocious thing on top of her dusty bed.

It was a doll, but not any ordinary doll. It was a doll with a picture of his face sewed in. He went closer to touch it but flinched when he saw the blonde locks it had.

There was no mistaking it.

"This is my hair," he whispered, making Jia feel even more creeped-out than she already was.

June hated to admit it, but this might be worse than Chul.

"Fuck," Jia couldn't help but curse. "What are we going to do now?"

June thought for a moment, looking around the room. At first, he thought that confronting her and asking her to stop would be the best option. However, seeing all of this now made him take back his words.

A simple conversation would not get this girl to stop.

Kim Sua needed some serious help.

So, he quickly brought something out of his pocket and placed it on her bedside table—almost like a hidden egg.

Then, he brought out his phone and proceeded to take photos of the room.

Jia merely watched him, not comprehending what he was trying to do.

"Let's leave," June said after a while, surprising Jia.

"What?" she asked. "But I thought you wanted to confront her?"

"It's okay," June assured her. "I've got all the evidence that I need."

"Are you sure?" Jia asked.

June nodded.

With that, the two of them decided to leave the room. However, before they could even take another step forward, the bathroom door unlatched, causing both of their eyes to widen in surprise.

It seemed like everything turned to slow motion as the bathroom door slowly opened.

Jia looked at June with wide eyes, silently asking what they were going to do.

June looked around and acted quickly. It was a cliche move, but he believed it was their only option for now.

Without thinking twice, June held onto Jia's wrist and pulled her down to the ground.

Then, just as Kim Sua fully opened the door, the two of them had already hidden right underneath her bed.

"Ah, that was refreshing," she whispered with a smile, not bothering to open the lights.

To her, darkness was the most comforting thing in the entire world. The light merely gave way to her insecurities, so she wanted to stay in the dark most of the time.

She stopped, however, when she noticed that something was off in her room.

The usual stale scent that comforted her was mixed with something sweet.

Sua narrowed her eyes in suspicion.

"Did somebody enter my sanctuary?"
