288 Opportunity to Talk
The sound of a pen being tapped on the table was heard up around the chair that was being occupied by a brown-haired girl.
Emma was thinking about what would happen in the war.
Previously, the Black Swan always attacked its enemies first. The truth was that what Emma had been doing all this ti was cheating. She always attacked her enemy suddenly from behind.
Hell Gate, Creeper, and Beast Empire – Emma always attacked their base when they were unprepared. Even, before carrying out the attack, Emma had also ssed up the contents of her enemy’s group using Kathy’s hacking ability.
But what would happen later would be different from previous events. This was a real war, when both parties had prepared themselves respectively.
Even though this was a two-on-one war, Emma saw this battle as fair because Dragger had a very large number of mbers. Maybe if Black Swan and Jita Kyoei were combined, then the number of their group could match the number of Dragger’s group.
Previously, Emma had asked Kathy to find out everything about the Dragger group.
In fact, it wasn’t difficult to find information about Dragger. It seed they didn’t really care if their general information got out.
Everyone knew that Jen Marrie Street belonged to Dragger. The group was led by a high school boy nad Pablo Diablo. The group also bribed the police to make it impossible to arrest them for their cris and illegal business.
.....
Pablo did not hide that he was a high school boy. He did not hide where he went to school and who his parents were. He had a good relationship with all mbers of his core team, like a family.
So powerful, Pablo was sure that he had no weaknesses that his opponents could use to subvert the business or group he led.
And another fact also made Emma always think about it. Dragger wasn’t the strongest group. Above it was still a group called Black Hole.
The Black Hole group had the biggest mystery. Kathy could find absolutely no information about them. Of all her efforts to search, Kathy only got one piece of information that the Black Hole had a leader nad Jas Kade.
The information that Kathy had worked so hard to find, was only in the form of a na. She did not know who was and the face of the No.1 of Black Hole.
‘If Dragger is strong enough, I don’t know what Black Hole is like.’ she thought.
“Emma,”
She jolted slightly when she heard a very familiar voice calling her na. She glanced at the man who was sitting in the seat beside her.
“Calvin, are you here?” Emma greeted him back warmly.
Calvin nodded. “Don’t you usually be alone like this,”
“I woke up too early. Since I had nothing else to do at ho, I decided to leave early. The empty campus felt peaceful.” Emma explained.
“That’s good,” Calvin answered with a smile he couldn’t stop.
Emma looked at him questioningly with a smile. “Is there anything funny?”
Calvin shook his head. “Nothing. I’m just glad that I decided to leave so early today. Now I have the chance to interact with you.”
Emma gave a confused look. “Don’t we always attend the sa class every day? We also always sit next to each other. I think they are interaction,”
“I know. But, every ti class is over, you always go straight away.” Calvin replied. There was a sad tone there.
“Oh...” Then she smiled guiltily at him. “I didn’t realize it. If you want to talk, actually you can just talk to right away.”
“It’s ok, Emma. I feel bad for you because you seem so busy lately. So I didn’t want to disturb your ti.” Calvin said.
Emma smiled gently at him. “You are very considerate, Calvin. Thank you for always thinking about my business.”
“Of course. I would never force my will on anyone, especially soone I care about.”
“You are very different from him...” Emma muttered to herself. She thought about Levi.
Calvin frowned. “With... who?” he asked doubtfully in a low voice.
Emma realized that she had muttered to herself unintentionally. Then she shook her head. “Soone I know. Forget it, he’s not important.”
“Oh,” Calvin smiled faintly. “By the way, what have you been busy with recently? Do you have a project with the girls? You are often seen discussing sothing together with a serious face.”
Emma raised her eyebrows. “Was that very obvious?”
Calvin chuckled. “I don’t know if it was obvious or I was just paying too much attention to it. Sorry, but please don’t think of as a stalker. I just have a bad habit of paying attention to others.”
Emma giggled. “If you didn’t ntion it at first, I would almost have thought that you were a stalker.”
“Gosh... My points are decreasing again in your eyes.” Calvin covered one side of his face with a hand.
Calvin’s act made Emma chuckle. She knew he was only joking, and so did she.
“I think I’m not the only one who’s busy. You also look busy with your friends.” Emma said with one raised eyebrow.
“Well, you are right,” Calvin muttered, and then he let out a long sigh. “Sorry for speaking so selfishly. I admit I’ve had a lot of problems lately that need to be fixed.”
Emma nodded. She knew what Calvin was talking about. It was a gangster group problem that actually Emma was involved in.
Calvin looked at Emma who was pensive herself. Then, he cleared his throat. “Are you... perhaps interested a little about my problem?”
“Oh...” Emma moved. “I’m sorry, but sothing suddenly crossed my mind. What happened?”
Since Emma already knew about the problem Calvin was referring to, it didn’t occur to her to ask again. In fact, what Calvin knew was that Emma didn’t know anything about his job outside of campus.
Calvin shook his head briefly. “It’s okay.” Then he took a deep breath before telling about the problem he was having. “You must have known it, don’t you? Crystal’s disappearance the other day was caused by a gangster group kidnapping her.”
“I knew. It looks like it’s the sa group that almost kidnapped Linda in front of Poppy’s ballet studio. But I heard that the group is gone now. Did you guys catch the criminals?”
“We did, Emma. , Troy and his friends, and a group called the Black. We all busted that kidnapping syndicate.” Calvin replied.
Emma smiled gladly, acting as if she was both surprised and amazed to hear it. “You guys are heroes! All the girls in this city should be thanking you.”
“We have different goals in doing so. There’s no need to give us the hero label.” Calvin chuckled.
Emma nodded. “All right. Then, what’s the problem now?”
“We will face tougher opponents,” Calvin replied.
“Oh, are you scared?”
“Although it’s embarrassing to admit it, the feeling is honestly there, even if it’s super tiny.”
“I didn’t expect it to turn out to be how you really feel,” Emma rubbed Calvin’s back, “Relax. We can get through this.”
What Emma said was sweet, but on the one hand, it also made Calvin frown in confusion. “We?”
Emma was shocked at her own words, then cleared her throat to shake off her nervousness. “I an, I’ll always support you.” she smiled awkwardly.
“Oh, thank you, Emma. That ans a lot to .” Calvin said. “I hope that all these problems will be resolved soon, so that I can have more ti to do various things that I want but have not been carried out until now.”
