Lindsey became even redder, if that was possible. "No, no, no, no," she rushed out, flailing her arms around, while Emilia and Zandos watched the scene with their heads tilted back in confusion.Queency laughed at her reaction before addressing her friends. " I have never seen her so flustered before." She chided."Nonsense," Lindsey said in a rush. "I'm just not used to seeing you guys so affectionate with each other. That's all." She blurted.Alejandro moved to his sister's side and slung his arm around her neck. "You are going to have to get used to it." Alejandro quipped." Of course," Lindsey responded.Queency moved closer to Lindsey. "Have you forgotten that we are brothers and sisters?" She muttered quietly.Lindsey gasped when she remembered. "I guess the information must have slipped my mind," she mumbled quietly. "Sorry.""It's okay," Queency stated. "Just don't tell Emilia and Zandos."Lindsey made the motion of sealing her lips."If she is not your girlfriend, then what i

As they held each other, a sense of tranquility settled over them. It was a reminder that no matter the challenges they faced, their love and support for each other would always be a source of strength.********"Sure thing, Travis," Zayn replied before heading to the storage room to retrieve the pictures. As he sorted through the photos, he diligently categorized and labeled each one before finally finding the ones he was looking for. He made sure everything was ready for Lindsey to review.After finding the pictures, he entered the room, Zayn smiled and placed the photos horizontally on the table. "Here you go, all set for you, Lindsey. I hope you can identify them," he said, his attention on Lindsey.Lindsey nodded before turning her attention to the photos sprawled on the desk, her hands on her jaw as she intently stared at them. Within minutes, she pointed at three out of the five pictures in front of her. "These three are among the kidnappers," she stated confidently."Are you

"I'm not entirely sure," Zayn replied, rewinding the footage for a closer look. "It almost seems like someone was strolling across the parking lot." He pointed at the screen, trying to catch the shadow's movement to figure out what it might be. "Do you want me to enhance the image to see if we can get a clearer view?"Queency and the rest of the team nodded As Travis quickly brought up the image enhancement tools on the computer. He adjusted the contrast and brightness, hoping to reveal more details in the shadow. After a few moments, he turned the screen back to Queency and the group, pointing at the clearer image of a person walking across the parking lot, his face hidden.Zayn, alongside Travis continued enhancing the image, zooming in on the person's face to reveal any discernible details. As they worked, Travis spoke reassuringly to Alejandro and the team, "I'm doing my best to enhance the image and bring out as much detail as possible. We'll get to the bottom of this and find ou

They arrived at their destination twenty minutes later. Queency's heart was racing as they headed to the front entrance, after showing the security at the gate a forge ID card. The doors opened to a large atrium with sofas and a reception desk. "Alright, team," Lindsey''s voice came through the earpiece of each team member. "It is show time. I've got visual and audio feeds from all of you. Be careful guys.""Do you have an appointment?" the receptionist asked with a smile."We're here to see Mr Carmicheal." Alejandro replied with as much authority as he could muster."Do you have an appointment?" The receptionist asked, smiling.Alejandro looked at his team. "I guess they really do have a Mr. Carmichael," he muttered to them before turning back to Zyra, the receptionist. "No, but this is of utmost importance," he said firmly, emphasizing the significance of their request. "I'm sorry, but I cannot allow you to see Mr Carmicheal without an appointment. I can make one for you, if you w

Chapter Eighty Four: The Switch.
As their meeting wrapped up, the team exited the office and made their way back to the Underground tunnel, the disappointment evident on their faces. "Zandos was right," Alejandro sighed. "We can't base our investigation solely on a name."******~ 30 minutes Ago (Before the meeting)~Jeff escorted the group into a spacious conference room and excused himself to fetch Mr. Carmichael. As he hurried down the hallway, his footsteps echoed on the smooth tile floor, his breath quickened with the urgency of the situation. Coming to a stop in front of Mr. Carmichael's office, he took a moment to steady his breath, then raised his hand to knock on the door.After a few minutes, a calm yet commanding voice called out, "Come in." Jeff took a deep breath before opening the door. The sight that greeted him was of Mr. Carmichael in all his glory, looking formidable in front of his mahogany chair while he scribbled something on a piece of paper. Beside Mr. Carmichael stood a tall, imposing figure w

Chapter Eighty Five: The Hunters Leader.
Jeff couldn't help but wonder if they had just made a deal with the devil. After all, the Hunters had a reputation for being ruthless. But there was no turning back now. They had to find the spy before it was too late.He entered Carmichael's office with Enzo in tow. As soon as Carmichael saw them, he stood up from his chair with a smile on his face. "Good job, Enzo. You exceeded my expectations," he said warmly. Enzo returned the smile and then decided to address the matter at hand. "So... back to the matter of the spy," he stated."I understand that this is a delicate situation," Carmichael began, his expression turning serious once more. "But we must act quickly and decisively to find the traitor. I will leave it to you and Jeff to lead the investigation. Philip and his team will be joining you. Do whatever it takes to get the job done."A heavy silence fell over the room, the weight of Carmichael's words hanging in the air. Jeff felt a knot in his stomach, but he forced himself t

Chapter Eighty Six : Following a Lead.
An unknown man is seen walking. His face is hidden from view, with a black cloak covering him. He holds a letter in his hand as he makes his way into a deserted area away from CCTV. He looks around and seeing no one, he slowly walks towards a wall. He pushes one of the wall and it reveals an open space. "This should help the dragon clan easily infiltrate Carmichael's company and I will finally have the man that I want beside me." He muttered before putting the letter in there, he stops and gives a menacing smile.The man takes one last look around before slipping the letter into the hidden space. He stands there for a moment, his eyes darting back and forth, searching for any sign of danger. After a few moments, he seems satisfied that he is alone. He turns to leave, his steps quickening as he hurries out of the deserted area.********Queency glanced at Alejandro, her expression filled with determination. "We can't give up," she said firmly. "There's always a way to uncover the trut

Chapter Eighty Seven: Possible Witness
The place was nearly empty, save for a few people sitting at tables scattered around the room. The team looked around, their eyes scanning the faces of the customers. But no one seemed to be paying any attention to them."Do you see anyone who looks out of place?" Queency whispered, trying not to draw attention to themselves."No," Alejandro replied, his eyes darting from one customer to the next. "But that doesn't mean that they're not here.""We should start asking questions," Zandos suggested. "See if anyone knows anything about the video."With that, the team began approaching the customers, trying to strike up casual conversations. At first, it seemed like no one knew anything. But then, a man in the corner looked up from his laptop."I heard you guys were looking for someone," he said, his voice low and raspy. "Is the someone the three men in dark suits that seem somewhat shady?"The team exchanged glances, their hearts racing. "How did you know about that?" Alejandro asked, try

Chapter Eighty Eight: The spy has been Revealed
Suddenly, the door to the office burst open, and the lab director rushed in, a look of panic on his face. "We have a problem," he said, his voice shaking. "One of the scientists is missing.""What?" Jeff exclaimed, jumping to his feet. "Which one?""Dr. Nguyen," the director replied. "He was last seen in the lab last night, but he never returned home. His family is worried sick.""We need to find him," Enzo said, his jaw set with determination. "There's no way this is a coincidence.""I agree,"the director said. "I'm going to send out a search party to look for him. In the meantime, I want you to review the footage again, this time focusing on Dr. Nguyen. Maybe there's something we missed."For the next several hours, the three men pored over the footage, trying to find any clue that could help them find Dr. Nguyen. Finally, just as they were about to give up, they spotted something. A flash of light, just for a moment, but it was enough to grab their attention. They rewound the foota

Chapter Eighty Nine: Second Visit
Alejandro and his crew could not believe that they were this close to catching the three identified men. He was still trying to remember where he had seen some of them, but none came to mind. After much thinking, realization dawned on him when he remembered that two out of the three men worked at AMAZONIAN TECH INC."Everything goes back to the company," he muttered and turned to his group. "We need to go back to AMAZONIAN TECH INC.""Why do we need to go back there? The Carmichael we saw wasn't the one we were looking for," Lindsey protested, her arms crossed defensively."Yeah, why do we still need to go back there?" Queency asked, her arms folded over her chest.Alejandro's eyes reflected patience as he tried to explain his thought process. "Those men have something to do with the company. I know it seems unlikely, but I have a gut feeling about this. The pieces are starting to fall into place, and I can't shake the feeling that there's something crucial we missed the last time we
