Adventure In The Dark
Tragedy 745 - Unbalanced number
...***...
Arriving in his study, Derek's attention was instead seized by the sound of his signal-capturing machine. He checked what happened before returning to treat Andrich's wounds.
"Tell me, did you have time to experience pain in your head?" derek asked as soon as he finished treating his wound.
"How do you know?"
"I've guessed..."
"What's up, prof?"
"What you're going through has something to do with Melinda's weird demeanor. The pain you're experiencing is caused by a signal sent to the chipset in your brain. But since the chipset in your brain has been removed, then the signal only has an impact on making your head hurt. While what happened to Melinda was the contents of the command signal itself."
"You mean, Melinda's behaving so because of master's control?"
"Yes. Was there something Melinda said when she hurt you like that?"
"He said 'kill them'."
"Kill 'em...?" Derek fell silent with his head that began to be approached by various questions. Melinda's words could have left a clue. What do you mean by 'kill them'? Is there anything going on that makes Professor Martin and Cato intend to use the evolvers to kill?
"I can't let this go. The drugs won't last long. If we keep him in this condition, he could hurt us."
"What should we do, prof?"
"There's no other choice. We have to go straight to the surgery to release the chipset in his brain. Although this is a bit risky for the content... But this is better than keeping Melinda in control, which puts her in a position to commit another, more dangerous crime."
"The ka-cages?" Andrich was silent with a confused face. He didn't understand Derek's words just now.
"Yes. Actually was... Melinda's pregnant. She's carrying your child."
"What?"
The island, at this time.

"Kill them!" the shriek of Lucia who in an instant made the guards move attacked Rei and the others. A fight again ensued between Rei and the guards.
Elvina and the others were greatly overwhelmed as they had to face more guards with their incomparable number of conditions, and their manpower was already heavily drained from the previous fight.
"Gurgh!" Fero shouted as he could not face more guards. The guards even moved around and began to hold onto his body until he could not move at all.
Fero tried to fight back. But his efforts were in vain because their numbers were too many.
"Fero!" Daisy ran to try to help him. Unfortunately the guards first caught it and held it.
"Gurgh!!" Dorothy's focus shifted to the sound of screaming for the sake of the shouting she heard. As soon as he turned his head, he saw all the residents who were already in a state of siege with their bodies held by the guards.
"GET THEM OFF!" Dorothy shouted with emotion. He beat up the guard beside him. Kicking guards from the other direction and trying to run helped them one by one. But just as he was stepping, another guard came and dragged his feet straight until Dorothy fell in the sand.
Dorothy's trying to fight that guard. Kick with his feet. "Araghh! Unhand me!"
"Dorothy!" Luna who realized Dorothy was in trouble rushed off to help her. The woman uses her powers to defeat the guard and immediately helps Dorothy to get up.
"We need to help others!"
"Good.."
