Chapter 37: Gradually Real ~ Ask for a Monthly Pass~)
‘Holy Snake Society’, a secret stronghold.
Harrow, the manager of Angcheng, is sitting in his chair.
Wearing a matte suit with only a silver brooch as an embellishment, Harrow looked extremely reserved. He was turning his cane while quietly listening to Kuya's report.
Although he rushed back in a hurry, Haro showed no impatience during the whole listening process. Just like his meticulously combed hair, he was rigorous and calm.
"'Mask Man', 'Claw 13', 'Flying Jazz', and unknown organizations."
"as well as……"
"'Night Owl Court'?"
Harrow whispered to himself after Kuya finished his report.
"Director, have you heard of this?"
Kuya looked at her supervisor expectantly.
If there was anyone in Angcheng's 'Holy Snake Society' whom she felt she could rely on, Harrow in front of her was definitely the first one.
Kuya always feels reliable because of his outstanding ability, calm personality and good analytical skills.
In fact, Kuya always believed that before she became a C-level personnel, the 'Holy Snake Society' in Angcheng was not exposed and eliminated because of the existence of Director Harrow.
"Except for the 'Mask Man' and 'Flying Jazz', I have never heard of the others."
Harrow shook his head and said.
"is that so……"
Kuya was inexplicably disappointed.
She originally thought she would hear more about 'Claw 13' from her supervisor. It was not for any personal reason. She just wanted to know more about the 'Night Owl Court' through 'Claw 13'.
Yes, that's it.
What's wrong with girls following the clues?
Haro glanced at Kuya.
Harrow was quite concerned about this subordinate who was relatively reliable but not truly qualified.
"Kuya, don't be fooled by what you see."
"The eyes are the most confusing organ."
Haro reminded.
"Are you saying that everything I saw was a scam?"
Kuya, who is not an idiot, immediately understood Harrow's reminder.
She frowned and subconsciously wanted to refute, but the respect in her heart prevented her from speaking immediately.
But the dissatisfaction in my heart still exists.
Too emotional.
Harrow sighed.
The reason why Kuya, who has outstanding abilities, is considered unqualified by him is because of his lack of calmness. People who always put themselves into it cannot see the overall situation clearly.
"The sudden disappearance of the 'Mask Man' and the sudden appearance of 'Claw 13'."
"Then, the unknown organization, the 'Night Owl Court' began to appear one by one."
"Don't you think it's a bit of a coincidence?"
Harrow reminded, with a hint of sternness in his voice.
There was no malice, he just didn't want his subordinates' lives to be in danger due to mistakes in judgment.
It's like being the other person's mother.
He lost the other person's mother, and he no longer wants to lose the other person.
Then, Harrow felt that he was too harsh, so he softened his tone.
"Moreover, the so-called 'Night Owl Court' still has a big flaw!"
"What flaw?"
Kuya asked.
"It is too bullying and afraid of the strong."
"It has not really taken action against the 'shelter', the 'temple' and our 'Holy Snake Society'."
"Logically, an organization that has existed for thousands of years would not be so good-tempered."
Harrow answered.
Then, after glancing at Kuya who had calmed down, he continued.
"It picked some opponents that were not troublesome. Although it showed strength, it seemed more like a bluff to me, especially after the 'masked man' who really offended the 'temple' disappeared, which made me have to
It is speculated that these actions and the so-called 'Night Owl Court' were born to cover up the 'Mask Man'."
"In fact, such an investigation does not require much effort."
"We only need three days, or even less, to know the whole story."
"The 'Holy Snake Society' can do it."
After saying that, Harrow shrugged his shoulders to show his relief.
Kuya frowned.
She looked at her supervisor and wanted to refute.
However, she had to admit that Harrow was right.
She found a reason not to refute.
Is ‘Claw 13’... fake?
The tall and profound figure appeared in her mind again.
I thought of that swung lightsaber again.
It's so bright.
It's so dazzling.
It was so... that she didn't want to forget.
But if it's false...
Boom, boom!
Just when Kuya lowered her head and clenched her fists, there was a rapid knock on the door. Kuya lowered her head even lower. She didn't want others to see her embarrassed expression.
Harrow looked at Kuya, he didn't want Kuya to be embarrassed.
So, he stood up, walked around the desk, supported Kuya with his cane, and then said:
"Come in."
The door was immediately pushed open.
Cicotte walked in.
This old man, who was in good spirits, had a solemn expression at the moment.
"Shaun, the B-class personnel of the 'Shelter', has arrived in Ang City!"
Sicotte reported.
"Sean? The one from the intelligence department?"
Harrow asked with a frown.
"Well, that's the guy."
Cicotte nodded, the expression on his face becoming more solemn.
"If it is this guy, it will be difficult to handle. If the level 2 plan is activated, all members of the 'Holy Snake Society' will enter the incubation period and no longer need to report regularly. Especially those who enter the 'shelter' can judge the crisis on their own.
If you have a premonition of something bad, arrange an evacuation immediately."
Harrow immediately ordered.
Harrow knew about Sean.
The opponent is an extremely difficult opponent.
The ‘Holy Snake Society’ has suffered losses from the other party more than once.
In one case, a branch in a city was uprooted by the other party.
He doesn't want to be the second one.
"clear."
Sicott nodded and was about to issue the order.
However, at this moment, his communicator rang.
"Sean was killed by 'Claw 13'!"
The words in the communicator were very brief.
However, there was a brief silence in this office.
Harrow, who was leaning on his cane, had a look of disbelief on his face.
Sicotte's body stiffened as he turned to leave.
Kuya, who had his head lowered, slowly raised his head, and the grayness on his face completely receded, leaving only...a high-spirited look.
real!
‘Claw 13’ is real!
Kuya's eyes were filled with excitement.
"What? Repeat it!"
Sicott said.
"Just now, Sean, who had just gotten off the plane, was killed by Talon 13!"
The communicator repeated it again.
"Did you see it with your own eyes?"
Cicotte confirmed again.
"confirm!"
"And, at least hundreds of people saw it!"
The voice in the communicator answered.
"Okay, continue to lurk."
Sicott ended the call, and then turned to look at his supervisor.
"The response from the 'Night Owl Court' was stronger than we imagined!"
The old man sighed like this, and then he couldn't help but wonder: "Since the 'Night Owl Court' has such ability, why does it allow other forces to enter Ang City?"
"Because we didn't threaten them!"
"Because they have their own traditions!"
Kuya stood up, walked around the supervisor Harrow, and said simply.
"Maybe they just didn't notice us?"
"Kuya, you shouldn't think too highly of 'Night Owl Court'."
"You have to know that we are saints..."
Sicotte was about to continue saying something, but before he could finish speaking, he saw Lessius walking in with a gloomy look on his face.
"Look, I just received it."
As he spoke, Lessius handed an opened envelope to Harrow.
He took out the letter paper from inside, and when he saw the densely packed names on it, Haro's expression changed instantly.
Cicotte just glanced at it and froze on the spot.
because……
Written on the letter paper is the list of all members of the 'Holy Snake Society' in Angcheng.
And at the end, there is a picture of a pitch-black ‘Night Owl’.
"How is that possible?"
"How could the 'Night Owl Court' know where our people are?"
"How could they do that?"
Sicott, an elderly man, couldn't help but exclaimed, as if some persistence in his heart was shaken at this moment.
"They've already done it."
"They found me easily."
"They wrote this list easily."
"There is only one possibility: every move we make is under their observation!"
Lessius said coldly.
This C-level personnel was in a very bad mood, not only because he was killed by the boss more than a hundred times when the 'Wolves' were playing games before, but also because he still died even though he had learned the 'pedicure' technique.
Of course, what's more important is the meaning behind this list.
He is constantly being watched.
Moreover, he hasn't discovered the other party yet.
Although his perception had declined after staying up all night, it was enough to show how powerful the opponent was.
I just don’t know if the other party saw him playing with Little Butter xx?
You must have seen it, right?
After all, he does it frequently.
When he thought of this, Lessius's face became even colder.
No one wants to be watched.
Lessius didn't want to, and everyone present felt the same way.
The faces of Cicotte and Harrow turned gloomy one after another.
Only Kuya is a bit special.
Who is spying on me?
Judging from the fact that the first person I saw was 'Claw 13', there was a high probability that he was the one monitoring me. When I was sleeping in the room, he was monitoring me at night...
An inexplicable strange feeling began to appear in Kuya's heart, and her face turned red.
However, something came to mind immediately, and this strong woman spoke directly.
"Director Harrow, do we still want to investigate the 'Night Owl Court'?"
She asked, looking directly at her supervisor.
Looking at Ku Ya's appearance, Haro couldn't help but smile bitterly. The other person had exactly the same personality as his mother.
He hopes to persuade the other party.
However, at this time, I couldn't say anything.
He had made consecutive mistakes in judgment, and now he only felt a burning pain on his face.
More importantly, a sense of frustration rose from the bottom of my heart.
As the director of Ang City of the 'Holy Snake Society', he did not realize that there was such a huge thing hidden in Ang City.
dereliction of duty!
useless!
Such thoughts appear unconsciously.
By this moment, Harrow had completely believed in the existence of the 'Night Owl Court'.
Not only because 'Claw 13' dared to directly kill Sean, a Class B personnel in the 'shelter', but also because of the list in his hand.
The former may only require a certain amount of strength, but the latter?
Without a force that completely controls Ang City, it is simply impossible!
"No."
Harrow shook his head, and then issued the order again.
"Kuya contacted 'Claw 13' again and sent out the two previous 'anomalies' to express that the 'Holy Snake Society' did not have any ill intentions towards the 'Night Owl Court'."
"yes."
Kuya nodded, as proud as a little hen, turned around and left, closing the door heavily.
Bang!
The sound of the door closing made the three men in the room smile helplessly.
Still too immature.
He can't even hide his emotions.
The three men commented.
Then, Cicotte coughed lightly.
"Ahem, could someone reveal the list?"
Sicott said.
"No, only I know the names on this list."
"Unless I betrayed the 'Holy Snake Society' and joined the 'Night Owl Court', it is impossible for anyone to know these names."
Of course, Harrow understood what the old subordinate was referring to and immediately denied it.
He didn't want Kuya to be harmed, and naturally that included any unfair suspicion.
"Hey, you didn't get carried away in the club, did you?"
"Do you doubt this silly girl Kuya?"
"If she was really that smart, you would have been beaten to death by her long ago."
Lessius said even more dissatisfied.
He cannot tolerate his peers doubting their peers.
Cicotte regretted it when he said it. He naturally knew that he should not doubt Kuya, because he knew very well what kind of person Kuya was. What if Kuya could really hide it from him?
Just like Lessius said, he had been played to death a long time ago.
"Sorry, I will find Kuya alone to express my apology."
"I just..."
"The impact I suffered today was quite big, and my world view almost collapsed."
The old man apologized immediately, then frowned and smiled bitterly again.
"Me too."
Lessius sighed.
He once again thought of the way he was seen during sex, and felt uncomfortable in his heart. He was not really fast, he was just pursuing happiness!
"Me too."
Harrow said, walking back behind the desk.
He needs to report everything in front of him to the headquarters of the 'Holy Snake Society'.
Then, maintain the operation of the Angcheng branch while waiting for the order to be issued.
This seemed extremely simple to Harrow in normal times, but now that there is the 'Night Owl Court', everything has become difficult.
Because, he was not sure what the 'Night Owl Court' wanted to do.
While Harrow was drafting the report and Lessius and Sicotte remained silent, Sicotte's communicator rang again.
Didi, didi.
"People suspected of being from the 'Temple' appeared in Angcheng."
The report sounded in the quiet office.
Suddenly, the attention of the three men was attracted.
The three of them looked at each other.
A clear idea appeared in the hearts of the three of them.
Everything started because of the ‘masked man’.
The one who assassinated the ‘masked man’ was the ‘Temple’. What does it have to do with their ‘Holy Snake Society’?
On the contrary, they still have a good relationship with the 'Mask Man'.
so!
They were right, they were all wrong about the ‘Temple’!
The eye contact and years of cooperation made Sicott directly pick up the communicator and hand it to Harrow.
As soon as he raised his hand and took the communicator from Sicott, Harrow said:
“Search for the figure of Sir ‘Claw 13’ as much as possible and inform him of this news!”
