The house on the edge of town looks lonely. The white roses in his yard swayed in the wind. Lorie pushed the unlocked black fence and walked in. He gave the code so that the four shadow guards who accompanied him remained in hiding. The girl installed thermal-imaging that resembled sunglasses and pressed a button to scan. Only one person looks moving inside the minimalist house. Lorie took the glasses back and put them in the bag. Once convinced, he walked towards the entrance and pressed the bell.
"Mr Billy," he reprimanded as soon as he saw the tanned-haired figure emerge from behind the door.
"Lorie, come in."
Billy opened the door wider. He slightly stepped aside, giving way to the girl in front of him in order to enter. Even so, the man's face continued to bow. He refused to look at Lorie's face.
The awkwardness did not go unnoticed by Lorie. Even so, he continued to review the sweet smile before asking, "What precarious situation made you ask me to come here personally, Mister?"
"There are some things I need to ask you. Go in first," replied Billy as he turned his body and was about to walk towards the sofa.
Drrr.
Billy's body trembled when a gun stun was taped to his waist. He could only hear Lorie's scream before his eyes darkened.
"Master?! Mr Billy!" call Lorie while squatting down and rocking Billy's shoulder.
The man's body lay quietly, not giving any response. Lorie pressed the base of her neck to check for a pulse.
"Secure," the girl said after confirming Billy had completely lost consciousness, "Take him to the base."
Two shadow guards appeared from Billy's right and left side, then lifted him out. Lorie helped open the back door of the car. Billy's body was placed in the seat carefully. Lorie closed the car door and moved forward.
"Let's go, '" he told the shadow bodyguard sitting behind the wheel.
After the car drove away from Billy's residence, Lorie pulled out her phone and pressed the speed dial number three. He typed a short message on his phone screen.
Shadow 04 reporting.
Target is secured. On the way to headquarters. Confirmation to back up. Over.
He touched the send icon, then glanced at the passenger seat. Billy's eyes were still tightly closed.
Lorie let out a breath that felt heavy. "I'm sorry," he murmured softly.
He was suspicious when Billy called and asked him to come here. Plus the movements of the man when he met him earlier, looks not as usual.
Ting.
Lorie's phone clinks. He immediately rubbed the flat surface and read the incoming message.
Miss Lorie, Jericho just came here. Bodyguard dragged him out.
"Damn!" curse the girl before typing a reply message. Apparently this was the reason Billy lured him out of the house.
Is madam okay?
Ting.
Madam is fine. He asked you to see him immediately when you get home.
I'll be right back. Don't let the madam go anywhere.
"Hurry up, we don't have much time" he told the man holding the wheel.

Beeping. Beeping. Beeping.
"There's complaints? Back pain or respiratory distress?" ask Ana's doctor after all the routine checks are done.
"No. Just the pain from the surgical wound" Alex replied. He cleared his throat and closed his eyes. The effects of the drug are still a little pronounced. His head feels dizzy. He also tried to resist the nausea that had been pounding his stomach since.
"I'll increase the dose of pain relief if the pain can't be sustained."
"no need. It's not as painful as my bone surgery," Alex refused. All he wanted right now was to sleep. He wanted to sleep comfortably.
Doctor Ana smiled. "We have to wait at least 24 hours to find out the success rate of this operation. During that time, I'll control you every hour" Ana's doctor told Alex.
"Good."
"Rest."
Ana's doctor tidied up her equipment, then walked out. Every man and woman he met along the way to his room bowed respectfully and said hello. Sometimes he returned the greeting with a sweet smile.
After entering a spacious and comfortable room, the woman sat behind her desk. He rechecked Alex's entire health report and set up his next strategy, just in case the spinal graft was rejected by Alex's body.
The woman lowered her head and examined her painful calf. Apparently there were scratches as long as nearly ten centimeters deep enough. Maybe the scratch wound arose when moving Alex from his house to this place at dawn. He took the iodine liquid and cleaned the wound.
A long sigh escaped the woman's mouth as she recalled how panicked she was when the operation had just finished and Alex's men gave instructions to get out of her house immediately. Really a very thrilling experience. Fortunately, they got here safely.
"Doctor?"
Doctor Ana looked up when she heard a call from outside her room accompanied by a slow knock.
"Yes?" he said as he walked towards the door.
"You're busy?"
Doctor Ana shook her head. "Is there anything I can help you with?"
"Regarding the man delivered by empty three, can you check it out now?"
"Sure," replied Ana's doctor, closing the door behind her, "Where is she now?"
"There's a lab. Let's." Let's."
Doctor Ana stepped up quickly following the girl in front of her. He felt so excited that he forgot the pain that had just hit his calf. To be honest, he was very impressed with Alex Smith. The man could have a training facility as well as a laboratory as sophisticated as this, he really wanted to know what exactly the man's job was. Perhaps he would question her when the man could walk again. It would be nice to be a part of this organization. He will do any research with pleasure.
"Please, Doctor."
Dr. Ana walks into an all-white room measuring about 5x6 meters. He walked towards the only bed the patient had in the room, then gasped when he saw who was lying on it.
"Mr Billy?" tanyanya, wanted to make sure that his vision was not wrong.
"Yes. There's a chip embedded in his cranium. Anything he sees or thinks will be recorded in that chip for the rival mister Alex to see. Please do whatever you can to get it out, or get the information out of it. Of course it must be unbeknownst to Mr. Billy himself so as not to be read by the person who installed the chip. Otherwise, all of our efforts will end in vain, or end in death for Mr. Billy himself."
"I understand.Please call my two assistants."
"Good."
Doctor Ana's facial complexion became serious. He approached until he was only one step away from Billy's body. Another puzzle he had to solve. The woman rolled up her coat sleeve and started checking.
Let's see what you have ....
