Adventure In The Dark
Tragedy 20 - Video call
...***...
A sudden noise could be heard interrupting. Fulfill the eardrum of Joe who is still asleep in his sleep.
The man gasped in shock, especially when the sound of a hum sounded deafening. His eyes spontaneously opened, and Joe reflexively jumped out of bed to his surprise.
As soon as he realized, Joe immediately turned to the direction where the object that made the sound was located. There was a small object the size of a circle of watches. Shiny silver with a strange shape. There are a few buttons and lights attached to the device.
Joe grabbed it fast. He immediately pressed the button, once he knew a call was coming in on his telecosys device.
As soon as the button was pressed, a hologram screen appeared before him revealing an old man looking at him with an annoyed look on his face.
The man can see Joe from a distance there, as well as Joe who can see and listen to his voice directly. The telecosys, like a cell phone, can make video calls. However, the difference telecosys have a simpler form by using a hologram as the main screen. On both sides, there is a button that can turn the object into a clock.
In addition, telecosys are the most advanced tools that are not only able to make calls between countries. It is also capable of making calls between the dimensions of space and time. Make video calls or voice calls from people in different dimensions and years.
"Prof.." Joe freaked out when the man caught him just waking up.
"What are you doing there?! Why are you even relaxing? Where are the two people I asked you to take him?!" screech the man was upset. His voice sounded so loud to Joe's ears. Making Joe who was downcast until he had to close his eyes to hold the noise.
"Ma. I'm sorry prof. I failed to bring them."
"I'm really sorry, prof…"
"Listen, Joe! You are one of my most precious creations, I treat you differently from my other creations because you have an advantage that no other has. So does your master, he really appreciates you more than Azura. If you continue like this, you may get rid of you because of your incompetence at work!"
"Please give me another chance, prof. and this time, I will make sure I will not fail again to catch them both" Joe said expectantly.
"I'll give you one more chance. Don't come back before you can catch them. I gave them fourteen days to catch them. If you can't catch them in fourteen days, then I'll send someone else to catch them, and in exchange, you should come back!" Professor emphasizes.
"Okay, prof. Thank you for the opportunity. I won't waste the opportunity the professor gave me."
"Remember! Only fourteen days, if you fail. Then I'll send someone else to catch them!"
"Good, prof…"
A pip sound is heard. The hologram screen that had originally appeared was in an instant gone from his sight.
Joe clutched the telecosys tightly in his hand. Jawline. "Anyway, I must arrest them both and bring them before the professor. I have to catch them. Got to!"
