Adventure In The Dark
Tragedy 98 - Pier


...***...


Derek walked down the path. He had already walked quite a distance from the Nils residence.


After walking for a long time, he finally decided to sit in one of the quiet places. The place is like a garden with several garden benches made of white painted iron.


Some locals are seen decorating the place. Derek took a seat on one of the existing benches. It is quite far from the crowd.


He sat for a moment. His hand began to move fiddling with his telecosys, pressing a few buttons so that a screen appeared before him.


On the hologram screen that appeared, Derek saw a row of numbers lined up. The numbers are nothing but the balance of the account Nils lent him. The rest were only a few tens of millions after he had worn it yesterday to buy clothes and some home supplies. In addition to taking care of passports and others.


"With the rest of this money I have, I could just rent a boat for tomorrow. But, it seems good that I check the port situation tomorrow and confirm whether they are here or not" Derek murmured softly.


Crane pressed the button. The button makes the button that originally appeared instantly disappear.

At the front of the morning, Nils was already made confused by Derek who suddenly disappeared after finishing breakfast. Nils could only shake his head slowly once he realized that Derek had left to start his work.


Arriving at the dock, Derek stepped towards the usual place where the guards came and went to where the headquarters were. Unfortunately after arriving there, Derek must be disappointed because his hopes of meeting the guards did not become real.


"It's not my lucky day" muttered Derek, who chose to stay on the edge of the dock with his feet floating on the water.


"Now what should I do? Would I rather rent a boat and go alone?" slowly oozed.


If I go alone, they are afraid to ask me what I mean. Especially without Joe. It is different if I am with him or I am with other guards who do have the purpose of going there, Derek said. He was silent thinking of a way to get to the headquarters without causing trouble and attracting the attention of the people in the laboratory.


Derek flashed his smile when an idea suddenly appeared. He got up, but as soon as he woke up, his attention shifted to some old men who were heard arguing with each other on the edge of the dock.


Derek who was curious about what they were arguing then approached them to divorce his quarrel which almost made both of them hit.


Derek helps them reconcile, having learned of the problem. Derek immediately helps them until the two get along.


Once they knew one of them had a boat, Derek then rented his boat on the grounds there was exactly what he had to visit. After paying a price that is not cheap, Derek immediately went to use the boat.


Derek walked down the ocean with the boat he rented. He drove towards the direction where the headquarters should be. However, it took quite a long time for him to really get there.
