The fix 87

"If you explain to me, who are we stalking?" Trish keeps walking to Tessa. Already since then the man continues to be made curious about the strange gelagat from the woman who was with him.

"Can you shut up? If you keep talking those people will realize we're stalking them!" Tukas Tessa is upset, she glares at Trish for mercy.

"Why don't you answer my question anyway? I'm really wondering what we've been doing for these two days? Why do we keep traveling? Know it? I even had to buy all these things!" Trish showed me the backpack she was carrying.

"I told you I didn't ask you to come, who told you to follow me anyway?!"

"I'm following you because I want to ask you the answer to the question I've been asking you all along!"

"I told you I didn't want to answer!" Tessa pressed her sentence.

"OK if you don't want to answer my question, but answer me. Why are we here? And what are you gonna do?"

"Ah you're a nagging seka—"

CRACK IT!

Tessa stopped her sentence when she suddenly caught the sound of someone accidentally stepping on a dry tree branch from the direction she was watching.

"What is it—"

"Hide away!" The whispers then pulled Trish's body to hide in the bushes not far from where they were.

"What's—"

"Sttt... shut up!" Tessa smothered Trish's mouth to keep the man quiet. While the ones in the back are trying to free themselves.

"I said shut up!" Tessa pressed her sentence even more, asking Trish to be quiet.

Tessa turned her attention to the direction she was watching. There was no one there, whom he saw was a stray cat who was walking casually.

"It turns out to be just a cat" he muttered as he removed his arms from Trish's mouth.

"What is this about you?!" Trish's getting upset.

"What else?" Tessa snorted at him.

"I really can't stand all this. Now answer me! What are you really gonna do? And who are you intending?"

"Look! If you really want to know what I'm doing, then you need to listen to me!" Tessa looked at Trish beside her.

Hearing Tessa's words that seemed resigned to her made Trish sumringah. He gave a smile, looking seriously at Tessa.

"All right, I'll listen carefully" Trish said.

"OKAY. Look, once every few dozen years there's always an event where evolvers all over the world disappear without a trace, and no one knows what's going on with them."

"You mean like this?" Trish cut.

"Yes." Yeah."

"So it's true, this incident really happened before? Then what does your late mother write that's true?"

"Rubber. And it keeps repeating itself, but no one knows and few people are aware of it. Because many of the other evolvers shut up and shut up about all this, therefore there was never a live newscast about the evolver that disappeared. There may be some who inform about the disappearance of evolvers from all corners of the world through information on the internet media such as the web and so forth. But most people who write that are people like us, who are pure human beings."

"Then what does this have to do with it all?" Trish doesn't understand.

"Look! My late mother had a piece of evidence she had collected about the missing evolvers, she wrote on the website where she worked as a reporter, but unfortunately the news he wrote was even denounced by many people who caused my mother to have a lot of difficulties until she died. Since then I have been curious about what really happened, why should everyone condemn his writing and why should everyone behave as if what we have been asking is taboo? Until then after both my parents died, I was kept in the company of some people from the government who were trying to arrest me and ascertain whether I had any other evidence or not. I even had to live on the run and had to keep moving in order to survive. Since then, I've become increasingly suspicious of what's going on and I've been trying to find other evidence that might get all my questions answered. But at that time, some evidence that I thought could be the answer to my question was suddenly seized and destroyed by some government. It was the only thing I thought would be the bright spot of my question. Then I waited for the next year to come, but all I could do was that the lost men had returned safely without any injuries."

"uh? Really true?" Trish can't believe what she's hearing. The explanation from Tessa was quite interesting.

"Yes." Yeah."

"So that's why you suspected me in the first place?"

"Yes, I'm suspicious because you suddenly came to my house. We don't know each other at all."

"I understand how you feel. You haven't been able to live quietly all this time, have you?"

"That's how."

"But, what amazes me is why did they suddenly return after a year of disappearance? And they're back safely?"

"Yes. That's what I want to investigate. And after that incident I thought the next year would happen again, but it didn't. The case re-emerged years later."
