"System on."[SYSTEM HAS BEEN ACTIVATED][WELCOME, MR. AARAV. YOU ARE GETTING FIFTY MESSAGE NOTIFICATIONS FROM WATSON ON MOBILE MODE][DON'T FORGET TO CHECK THE CALL BOX. TWENTY-FIVE MISSED CALLS FROM WATSON][FIFTEEN MISSED CALLS FROM DARIUS]A blue holographic screen flashed in front of Aarav's limp face. His eyes faintly looked at the screen that showed there was one incoming phone call. From Watson. It was certain that Watson must be looking for his and Marcolin's whereabouts.For so many hours Aarav had been unable to inform anyone, including Watson. It should have been easy for Aarav to give news to the people on his side since the system was equipped with a display feature like a cell phone screen.Unfortunately, Aarav was unable to activate the system after the fight. He didn't even realize he had passed out for hours, twice, which is a shame.[INCOMING CALL][WATSON][PICKS UP] [REJECTS]Aarav said softly, "Pick up..."Then the system screen changed to resemble a video call d
The file that Watson sent was data on the criminal history of The Warlackson Organization over the past years.Aarav read all the information for each year. The criminal acts committed by The Warlackson Organization were not just one or two. But luck seemed to be with them all, as none of the criminal acts were seriously prosecuted."I found the file from him," Watson replied to Aarav's question just now.Aarav swiped the system screen to the side to split the display into two: The Warlackson Organization's criminal history data and the video call view with Watson. At that moment, Aarav watched as Watson stepped aside, and then Robert appeared with a distinctive stern look on his face.Suddenly Aarav could not hide his surprise. Aarav was dumbfounded for a few seconds, completely unexpected and confused about how Robert could be next to Watson."Wait... why... Robert is beside you?" asked Aarav after a split second of trying to digest Robert's appearance.Robert crossed his arms in fr
Robby chuckled after hearing Aarav's question."Your question sounds very cruel. I just wanted to have a friendly chat with you. Is that wrong?"Aarav was thoroughly disgusted by the fake smile on Robby's face. Of course, someone like Robby would not be affected by Aarav's provocative questions at all. At that moment, Aarav was actually furious. But Robby would be very challenged to provoke him further.Aarav did not want Robby to be satisfied quickly. Because he himself did not know what Robby's purpose was to come to him now."I can't believe you didn't come to me for some reason," Aarav replied. His voice had begun to tremble as his emotions increased. Even so, calmness still prevailed in Aarav.Robby then lowered his body position to a half-bow to Aarav. One hand moved to take something out of his pants pocket.Aarav's eyes watched the movement of Robby's hand. Until finally Robby's hand was seen removing a small object like a taser. The object at first glance looked like a rather
"I've been asking you nicely since the beginning of our conversation, Aarav. You are not willing to negotiate."Cheers from the members of The Warlackson Organization could be heard all around Aarav. All eyes were on one spot: the man in the boxing ring tied to a pole, accompanied by three burly men. The three men seemed content to listen to the cheers of the other members."HIT HIM NOW!""OH, COME ON, I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THIS SHOW!""HEY, IS THAT GUY GOING TO DIE TONIGHT?"While the cheers for the three burly men, Robby's aides, to immediately hit the target rang out, Aarav was only dumbfounded. The look on his face radiated great worry realizing who the man they were targeting was.Aarav could not move at all. Both of his hands were held very firmly by Robby's two aides. The man who was targeted and tied to the pole there was very recognizable to Aarav."Marcolin," muttered Aarav who immediately fell silent in panic. "What are you going to do with him, Mr. Robby?"The eye contact be

"Fioletta! Fioletta, come quickly!" Benzala's voice rang out loudly calling someone's name.Aarav and Marcolin's bodies, carried by Robert and one of Benzala's bodyguards, were placed on the medical bed. Aarav groaned as the pain in his stomach intensified. His movements were so limited that he could hardly even lay down without Robert's help.Soon a woman around Aarav's age wearing a white doctor's coat arrived. Another man who also looked like a doctor followed behind. Both of them were in a hurry to approach Aarav and Marcolin."They have gunshot wounds and stab wounds. You must take serious action against them," Benzala said without being asked by the two doctors.There was no response from the two doctors. While Benzala kept his bodyguards out of the room, the two doctors examined Aarav and Marcolin's injuries.Compared to Aarav, Marcolin's condition was more limp. Marcolin was literally just lying there, even when the male doctor removed his T-shirt. The gunshot wound in Marcoli
Aarav didn't feel any better after waking up from the effects of the anesthesia.On the slightly weathered hospital bed, Aarav forced himself to get up and sit down. His stomach felt very stiff and painful because he had just had his wound sutured a few hours ago. But Aarav ignored the bandage that was reddened by the blood flowing down his abdomen.After painstakingly sitting against the wall, Aarav looked to the side. There was no Marcolin's bed anymore. He was the only one in this silent room. Marcolin's absence made Aarav instantly feel anxious. Aarav spontaneously remembered the incident where Marcolin was shot for protecting him from an attack."Where is Marcolin?" asked Aarav muttering as he looked to his right and left. There was panic on his face.Aarav suddenly had the urge to get up and go out to find Marcolin's whereabouts. His worries were already growing after remembering what happened between the two of them.So Aarav, without thinking about the large bandage wrapped
