"Where have you been all this time? I tried to call you but why can't I call you too. What really happened, why did things get so complicated? It's not like we planned. Didn't I tell you from the beginning to hold back your plans?" cato said in an annoyed tone. For days he had to wait for news from Martin who was suddenly difficult to contact. His phone is off, his number is off, even Cato can't find it in the lab. The man seemed to disappear. Disappeared in the swallow of the earth like the news of the children who are now circulating in the world. Every day Cato is haunted by fear, and anxiety. Especially after he heard there were more children who disappeared every day.
This was all completely outside of the deal they had made before.
"Calm down, don't be disappointed. I'm doing this because somehow we have to make the state as natural as possible, right?" Martin spoke with ease. The man acted as if nothing had happened around them. Acting as if what Cato is worried about is not a big problem that must be worried.
"Whatchu mean? Precisely with your actions, everything becomes unnatural stupid! How could anyone not be aware that the number of children missing even reached the whole world? Didn't that just make this case the world's attention?!"
"Calm down. I did it precisely with the intention that your family assume she was lost because of being a victim just like the other children. Everything is under control anyway. No one's gonna know where we're hiding those kids."
"Whatchu mean? Where did you hide them? And why can't I meet you at all? I repeatedly searched you into the lab, and you weren't there. Don't tell me you guys just ran away after everything I did?"
"Don't conclude quickly! My brother and I were busy preparing a place for the kids. Besides, if Miles and I call you and you disappear, won't that make your family suspicious?"
Cato silently confirmed Martin's speech. He was indeed upset because the man had suddenly disappeared just like that, but what he said was true as well. If Martin tells him and takes him away at times like this, then maybe his family will be suspicious.
"I'll tell you where we're keeping those kids. Tomorrow morning come to the lab, I'll be waiting for you there."
"How can I trust you? What if you just tricked me and let me just like the last few days?"
"There's no way that Miles and I could do that. We need you here. Trust us. Just come, okay?"
"All right..."
"Oh, one more. I sent you an email containing the data of the children who will go through the process first. Can you check and confirm what the correct dosage level is for the operation to be successful?"
"Emailis? I don't take it."
"really? I just sent it a few minutes ago. Just when I called you, and I saw here the e-mail you received you opened."
"WHAT?" Cato spontaneously widened his eyes upon hearing Martin's last sentence.
