Grasping Strength: Games, and Revenge Transformation

Chapter 2

Ben answered whatever he could. Realizing that Zidane could be in bigger trouble than ever, Ben then said that Zidane was taken straight home last night. And he doesn't know where Zidane's home is.

 

"Is that really true? If he does work here, I'll check. Tonight, tomorrow and tomorrow again, I will make sure that man is no longer here. You'd better fire that man! If you don't fire him, I'm sure Mr. Jason won't be happy and you'll definitely be in trouble. And so will the customers and your cafe!  The choice is yours!"

 

 The man looked threatening to Ben. Ben knew his position wasn't good, so he just kept quiet and nodded his head.

 

 It would have been nice if they had just left. But of course, with the slamming of one of the chairs and the smashing of several chairs.

 

Ben went straight upstairs afterward. The man's big voice was clearly heard all the way upstairs.

 

"Are you okay?" Zidane asked worriedly.

 

"Yes, they're gone!"

 

"I'm sorry. You got into trouble because of me!" Zidane exclaimed regretfully.

 

"You'd better leave Zidane. You see, he can do anything. I think this problem is bound to go on for a long time, it's not a good thing if you continue to be in this cafe. Disappear and hide for a while, so that he doesn't get angry again.  I think he'll find someone else to vent his anger on!"

 

Zidane nodded, then he reluctantly chose to return home. Although his head was still spinning, the only person he had besides Cassie in this world was Zoe.

 

As Jason said those words, Zidane was suddenly worried about his sister. Several police cars could be seen in his yard. That added to the worry in his chest.

 

"Zoe, what's wrong?" Zidane shouted.

 

"They found Zoe naked this morning!" one of his neighbors exclaimed.

 

Zidane went straight to Zoe's room. His sister was bound hand and foot, a doctor had just injected her.

 

"What's wrong with Zoe?"

 

"She had a bad night. Some men abused her. We're still looking for the culprits!" 

 

The statement from the police didn't calm Zidane down. His brain thought Jason could be the culprit. But he didn't have any proof.

 

The anger reached his brain, making Zidane furious.

 

"It seems to have traumatized Zoe. I stayed here all night, and Zoe kept screaming in fear. So, I called the doctor. The police came to question Zoe."

 

Aunt Lung passed on the information to Zidane. They are very lucky to have a good neighbor like Lung.

 

****

 

The police had left, as had the doctor and Lung's aunt. Zidane was the only one who looked at the sleeping Zoe. 

 

The doctor said the tranquilizer was only temporary, Zidane had to calm his sister down.

 

Sure enough, not long after. Zoe woke up and screamed. Zidane immediately ran to Zoe's room. He deliberately locked Zoe in the room and untied her legs and hands.

 

"Zoe, calm yourself! I'm here!" Zidane shouted.

 

"Go away! Go away! Go away!" Zoe shouted at Zidane.

 

"Zoe, it's me! Look at me!" Zidane shouted.

 

"Go away! Go away!" 

 

 Zoe blurted out. She didn't recognize Zidane. Her sister was hitting Zidane's body lightly. She had even broken his bed. The room was chaotic and messy.

 

"Go away!" Zoe shouted again. This time she threw the bed lamp. Luckily it didn't hit Zidane.

 

"Calm down Zoe. Calm down. Look at me, Zidane! Zidane. Okay?" 

 

Zidane tried to calm his sister down. He didn't want to lose Zoe. It must have been terrible for Zoe, that's why she was like this.

 

"Go away!" Zoe shouted again.

 

This time she threw the books in Zidane's face and none of them hit Zidane. The 19-year-old looked wild. She again pelted Zidane with the closest thing to her.

 

"Zoe! Calm down! We'll get through this together! I'll teach them all a lesson!"  

 

Zidan then locked Zoe in her room. That stopped Zoe temporarily. But only for a moment. It wasn't long before Zoe was screaming again.

 

Zidane was very sad about his sister's condition. He planned to find out the truth himself.

 

"Aunt Lung!" Zidane called out at the door.

 

"Zidane? What's wrong?"

 

"I'm going to go find out the truth about what happened to Zoe. Can you look after her for a while? She's in her room, I locked her up!"

 

"Alright. You can go. But don't stay too long, I'm afraid Zoe will get out of control!"

 

"Okay!"

 

Zidane was relieved. He could count on Lung. Zidane suspected this had something to do with Jason. It was possible that the man had hurt his sister as well.

 

"I'll find evidence and bring them all to justice. If they can't be caught, I'll catch them myself in my own way!"

 

Zidane headed for the scene. The hallway was narrow. From the bus stop to their house, it was the closest street.

However, the street lights sometimes go out. That could give people an opening to commit crimes.

 

Zidane observed. There was a camera there. So he asked the owner of the house. Just maybe, the camera caught the culprit.

 

"Zidane, I'm sorry. I've already spoken to the police. We were away when it happened, and my security camera was broken, there was nothing there. You can see that!"

 

Zidane was disappointed with that. But he didn't just give up. He went back to another place. To see if there might be evidence there.

 

For hours Zidan searched and found nothing. He was desperate.

 

"The police didn't get any clues. This is really very strange. How can there be no evidence?"
