The previous solemn air inside the room vanished after 80s statent.
Dr. Han: "Ahahaha, I thought it was a very good poem that has much wisdom in it."
Alan: "It was indeed flavorful. I'd say that you have progressed a lot in poetry."
No. 9: "I agree. It was actually excellent."
Behind the laughing eyes of Dr. Han, a flash of wisdom concealed itself behind the colorful personality of his.
Lieutenant Rock: "I guess this is the end of our eting. I can only wish you the best in the upcoming trial, number 33. Your vacation starts tomorrow, so you should get going today. As for you, number 80, there's a limit to how frank you can be. We are still in the army."
An embarrassed smile appeared on '80s face, but he did not back off as he already got permission to speak frankly from the lieutenant himself.
Dr. Han: "Ah, I hate serious talk. My body's stiff like an old tree bark."
Standing up as he stretched his body, walking around the room, coming behind Alan as he gently tapped his shoulder.
Alan's vision suddenly blurred as he passed out on the eting table; both 80 and 9 were slightly shocked by the sudden developnt.
Dr. Han: "Have a sweet dream, 33. I hope you will enjoy your vacation."
No. 80 looked at the lieutenant, who was nonchalant about what happened right in front of his eyes.
No. 80: "This is a tradition, right, lieutenant, an absolute necessity for the secrecy. You all don't just like to knock out your juniors right."
Lieutenant Rock: "All of us have been through this road; might as well continue with the tradition."
....
A handso young teenager was sleeping peacefully on an old bed inside the room that has seen much ti clearly with a long history.
The layout of the room was basic: a simple bed with a drawer cabinet next to it and a small fridge in the corner of the room with an open door that leads to a rundown bathroom.
The room have all the makings of a cheap motel. The only thing that stood out of the ordinary is the handso sleeping teenager.
His eyelid fluttered as he was showing signs of waking up. He was greeted by the large stain on the roof that was yellowish in color, completely different from the surrounding white.
He got up feeling slightly dizzy. The first thing he did was surveying his surroundings.
Alan: "Where the hell am I!!"
He tried to recall the last thing he rembered, which was the eting, then Dr. Han placing his hand gently on his shoulder; after that, there was nothing.
Alan: "Dr. Han put to sleep. You really can't judge a book by its cover!!"
He looked at his terminal, only to find out that 24 hours had passed, and he was effectively on his first day of the vacation.
His lips twitched, feeling that the organization is truly organized, as everything is always arranged on ti and to the letter.
The only thing he had on him was the small bag that contained multiple changes of clothing; to his surprise, he found everything inside, yet he could not rember preparing the bag, which actually creeped him out a little bit.
Soone made the effort to prepare his belongings before sending him to God knows where.
He imdiately took a shower and changed his whole attire as he exited the room, heading straight to the registration desk.
Alan: "Excuse , I was in room 686. I would like to check out."
The old lady, who was slightly obese, behind the counter, barely lifted her head as she responded almost chanically with the response that she had done thousands of tis already.
"Hand over the keys. That's it."
Truly a low-maintenance motel, that was the impression Alan had at the mont.
Alan: "Do you think I can catch a flight to Howler Town today? I still need to do so shopping."
The old lady raised her head as she gave a strange look.
"Why the hell do you want to take a flight to Howler town when you are already there? I don't know what you have been smoking, I've seen my fair share of weirdos and freaks. But you are unique; I will give you that"
Alan was shocked, as he could only smile awkwardly. He should have confird his location first before trying to be a smartass.
After thanking the old lady, he went out of the motel, on the inside, shocked as he was delivered like a package to his hotown.
The might of the organization is truly unfathomable.
Suddenly he rembered that he had nothing to do here in Howler Town, as his mother and sister were with the hunts.
Alan: "It seed like I had to take a flight."
...….
At first he wanted to take the sa type of flight by hiring a single aviator to transport him, but the journey would take 12 hours, and he wanted to see his family as fast as possible, so he decided to splurge when he heard that there was a ferry leaving soon.
These flying ships are an Ena artifact made by the finest artisans and can fly faster than a 9th stage beast.
The previous 12-hour journey can be crossed in two.
he booked the first-class ticket, splurging a little to finally enter the vacation mode.
While he was walking towards the ferry, he was amazed by the huge flying artifact-like ship.
Part of him wanted to know how these things work and how they are made, but that was for another ti, as he was excited to explore the giant ship, with not enough ti to go around. He had only 2 hours to take a look.
An hour later, all the passengers were on board, and the flight was about to take off.
"Ladies and gentlen, there will be a delay of 30 minutes because of technical issues. We apologize for the inconvenience, and we ask you to grace us with your patience. Every passenger will have a complintary drink in any lounge aboard. Thank you again for understanding."
That sudden announcent all over the ship did not cause any surprise, as Alan, who had another 30 minutes to explore, took advantage of the ti.
The ship had many leisure facilities, with restaurants and all kinds of entertainnt all aboard.
Feeling slightly hungry, he decided to have lunch at one of the famous restaurants aboard the ship.
Just as he ordered a few dishes, he felt the ship taking off the ground, and finally the flight was in order.
Enjoying the many delicious dishes in front of him, completely satisfied with the culinary level of the ship's chefs.
With only 2 hours left before he reached his destination, he decided to stroll around the ship Before going back to his cabin.
"She finally stopped crying."
"Take her back to the cabin."
As he was walking around the deck, he saw a man and a woman carrying a small girl that was around Lily's age.
The girl had dried tears all over her eyes as she was sleeping peacefully, clearly from exhaustion.
Seeing the girl, he rembered the mischievous little gluttony. He had to buy a few things before he visited them; otherwise, the little girl would not forgive him.
As he was about to continue walking, he saw sothing That disturbed him. The woman took the girl as if she was holding a rag; clearly, she was unaccustod with taking care of children.
"Hold her right."
"I know."
The man hounded the woman about her careless handling of the girl. Then he did sothing unusual, which left an impression on Alan as he took a look at the surroundings.
"Get back to the cabinet and stay there. Do you understand?"
"I'm going."
Watching the woman leave, the man left in a completely different direction, heading towards the engine area.
Alan: "Probably nothing, just a dysfunctional family."
But a voice inside him that ca from beneath the folds of ti, as an image flashed in his mind like a zap from the past, which made him uncomfortable.
He decided to follow the man to kill this suspicion that he had.
Tracking the man and following him proved to be a simple task. The difference between him right now and a year ago was like the difference between a vast sea and a small lake.
What wasn't simple was the man's movent, as he was like a slippery fish in the water, going in circles around the engine area as if he was employing counter-tracking asures.
The central area for the engine is supposed to be closed; only staff mbers of the ship can access it, and only those from engineering or high-ranking officers.
But the man did not go into such sensitive areas as he wiggled and maneuvered around checkpoints to reach a small room that was beneath a tal staircase.
It looks like a cleaning supply room. Alan, who was watching from the shadows, saw the man looking for sothing.
He took out a blue box that was hidden behind the cleaning supplies.
"It is here; our plan is foolproof. The mont we reach the destination and the handover is done, no one can trace it back to us."
