From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show

Chapter 1014: Hiding



Weird things had been happening to DAWN.

After the fan sign ended, a lot of strange events surrounded them.

Of course, they had somehow expected it. The bigger their fandom was, the more toxic it was going to be. Since their fans were increasing at a rapid pace like bacteria in still water, they were already prepared for the worst. They knew it was one of the things that came from being in the spotlight.

However, even then, it was easier said than done.

They were now in the car, appearing exhausted. They stayed in June's apartment the previous night because they had a photoshoot for their concert early in the morning.

However, it was useless since couldn't even get a wink of sleep. Why? Because they swore someone was picking the lock!

"Are we just being paranoid?" Akira asked with hooded eyes.

"I think we are," Jaeyong said, massaging the bridge of his nose. "Casper, you checked the perimeters, right?"

Casper nodded, his eyes closed. "Yeah. There was no one there."

"But I could definitely hear someone picking the lock!" Jisung exclaimed, holding onto his bag that was now adorned with June's keychain.

"Yeah-it sounded like a melody, too," Sehun said, frowning. "We can't be mistaken."

"Look," Zeth said. "My beauty rest was compromised for this. I do think that someone tried to pick the lock-but only once. Casper checked multiple times, and there was no one there!"

Ren nodded in agreement. "Frankly, I think it's because of what happened during the fan sign. We realized that we had a lot of crazy fans, and Akira's sasaeng stories are not helping us one bit."

"Hey," Akira said. "I was just trying to inform all of you! We can never be too careful, you know?"

"Of course," Jaeyong said. "However, this ordeal led all of us to look like this. The makeup artist is going to have a hard time covering my dark circles."

The others nodded in agreement. Then, they turned to June, who was sleeping against the window. Like the others, he didn't get a lot of sleep.

However, he looked so well-rested!

Zeth sighed. "I'm just going to categorize June as an alien. I don't want to believe that he's one of us."

"Yeah, I think that's for the best," Sehun said.

Jaeyong chuckled. "Well, we're going to a hotel again. We're going to take pictures on their balcony. We could rest in the penthouse while we're at it."

"Oh-ho," Akira said. "That is some nice treatment."

"Of course," Jaeyong said. "Jay would give us nothing but the best!"

"This is a private schedule, right?" Jisung asked, playing with his fingers.

Ren turned to him with a small frown. "Yes, Ji," he said. "Why?"

Jisung smiled and shook his head. "Sorry," he said. "I'm just a bit tired, so I don't have the energy to face the fans, you know?"

"Definitely," Ren said. "We need some alone time, too."

Jaeyong nodded. "Yeah, this is a private schedule. No one should be there. We have the highest floor to ourselves."

Jisung sighed in relief.

With that, they made their way to the hotel. Fortunately, the schedule had not been leaked, and no one was waiting outside the hotel.

They quickly made their way to the highest floor to get their makeup done and have their solo photoshoots.

June was the first to go. He sat on the makeup chair and closed his eyes. The makeup artist frowned as she looked at his face.

"Did you get your makeup done already?"

June silently shook his head.

Meanwhile, Akira, who was getting his makeup done just right beside him, sighed. "Oh, to have that face," he muttered.

"You're looking better and better every time I see you," she said before going to work.

Then, some of the boys went to the balcony to get their solo shots while the others got their makeup done.

Jisung and Ren were the last ones to get their makeup done, and they excitedly conversed about their upcoming tour.

"Are you excited to go overseas?" Ren asked.

"Hmm," Jisung nodded. "I can't wait, honestly. I haven't traveled out of Asia."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Same here," Ren said.

"Has any of us traveled to North America?" Jisung asked.

Ren nodded. "I believe Jaeyong and Akira had gone. They went to international festivals back

when they were still in RAVEN. Oh, Casper must have gone, too."

"Yeah, I believe that," Jisung chuckled.

Casper had probably gone everywhere-with Luther, too.

The two of them continued talking. However, at that moment, they felt something flash at

them.

Jisung frowned and turned to Ren. However, he was busy using his phone.

Then, he shook his head. He had been feeling like this since their fan sign had ended. He really

should get a grip.

However, it happened once more, and this time, Ren noticed it.

Ren frowned and looked out the window. "Was that some lightning?"

The makeup artist shook her head. "It's very sunny out."

"Hmm, strange," Ren muttered.

Just then, Jisung heard another sound. It was from above them. He frowned and looked

around the room, startling the makeup artist.

"Oh my," she said. "I was almost done, but you smudged your lipstick just now."

Jisung pursed his lips. "Sorry," he said, turning back to her. However, even then, he didn't look comfortable.

The makeup artist frowned. "Are you alright? You're sweating even though the AC's up. You're going to lift the base of your makeup at this point."

"Sorry," Jisung apologized once more.

She sighed. "It's alright. I'll just use some powder."

However, Jisung felt like he wasn't crazy. These past few days, there's really a feeling that

someone was following him and watching his every move.

He heard that subtle sound once more, along with the flash. He clicked his tongue and

abruptly turned around, startling the makeup artist once more.

What met him was a sight that would replay over and over again in his nightmares.

Bright, white eyes and dark pupils stared back at him.

"There's someone in the vent."
