[J.B Entertainment]
Rattling noises were heard all over the office floor, Naturally it happened because it was now in employee rest hours. Not a few also seen the employees back and forth with their respective activities. Including Chloe who is currently helping Gracia in Canteen while serving several employees there.
"Chloe, deliver this order to table no.2," Pinta Gracia handed over a tray containing various foods and drinks.
"Okay, sister,"
Chloe swiftly delivered the order, smiling kindly after handing over the order.
Back at the counter, she overhears a conversation between Gracia and the other OG.
"Eh uh, this is Mr. Ceo asking to be accompanied by his order. Gracia, you're the anterine" said one OG as he handed the tray of Ezra's order to Gracia.
As soon as Gracia panicked half-dead, her face immediately paled as well as the OG earlier.
"K-Kok Me...? Um..," Netra Gracia glanced back and forth looking for other OGs around her, until her gaze was fixed on Chloe who had just finished washing some dishes.
"Chloe, please anterin this order to Mr. Ceo yes. Pliiss..." Pinta Gracia by welding, thrusting the tray at Chloe.
Chloe who was dumbfounded just obediently received the tray, Her expression looked astonished. While looking at one by one the faces of Gracia and other OG that look pale.
"Why are your faces so pale? It's just food,"
Gracia's reflexes pulled Chloe slowly away from there and Gracia whispered.
"When you forgot Chloe? Mr. Ceo was fierce plus neremin, his position so Road Manager was already fierce let alone fit already so Ceo gini. It must have been more fierce and savage, so we didn't dare to carry the order," Whispered Gracia slowly, Glancing around her warily afraid that anyone would hear her words other than Chloe.
Chloe who heard the reason Gracia was just a beard. "It turns out to be afraid of Mr. Ezra apparently, even though Mr. Ezra did not bite you know. Most just got a little snapping," thought Chloe speechless.
"Yes, let Chloe be anther. Gracia continued her work, yes,"
"Huhuhu, thank you Chloe. You're our best savior" Gracia cried, followed by another OG cry. They are relieved that they did not meet Ezra.
Chloe just chuckled softly while shaking her head. "Then I'll go first, brother,"
"Yes, be careful. We wish you a safe return,"
Chloe's back to speech. "Lha? Do you want to go to war?"
As a result Chloe hurriedly left from there rather than the situation getting weird.

[Ezra Room]
"So, I should also check the results of Willy's report?"
"Yes, he said the development of our idols this year is very good. So I need you to check the documents to prove it,"
Ezra stared at the document in question while nodding softly. "Is there any additional work I need to do Mr Justin?"
Justin, the orange-covered young man shook his head across the phone. "Nothing, that's all. I'll let you know if there's another new assignment,"
"All right,"
Ezra intended to disconnect his phone but stopped because of a knock on the door of his room.
Geck! Geck! Geck!
"Excuse me, this is my order, sir,"
"Come in!"
KKREEIITT!
Chloe enters the room, approaches Ezra's desk to hand over her food. Arriving there he then placed the order one by one, Shortly after finishing his blue sliced netra accidentally staring at the vidio call on Ezra's cellphone where at that time the contact was Justin.
"Oh, Mr Justin how are you? You're still in the dorm?" Sapa Chloe smiled cheerfully.
Justin smiled back at Chloe when he saw the girl. "My news is good, well I spend more time in the dorm now. More comfortable doing the work here,"
"Good, you better get a lot of rest in the dorm. And take the medicine properly,"
"Of course, of course. I'll do it, I've felt better since I worked in the dorm. My disease doesn't recur often now,"
"It's good to hear it,"
Ezra frowned at the conversation between Justin and Chloe, As a result he pushed the girl's face away from his cellphone.
"Ck! You're just disturbing the rancid!"
"Yeah! Sir I was just chatting for a while with Mr. Justin," Chloe snorted a little because her chat with Justin was cut off.
"It seems that after Ezra took my place, you guys are getting more and more familiar" Justin chuckled softly.
Ezra's expression turned sour, Unhappy to hear it. "We will never be familiar! This Tengil is the only one whose work is just disturbing,"
"Ezra sir salahin me too" Inner Chloe speechles.
"Whatever you say Ezra, it'll never change the fact that you two are partners. So it's okay for you two to be in the office after I took my job there" Justin said seriously.
"Hah~ Alright Mr. Justin," Ezra breathed a sigh of resignation. Chloe just nodded obediently.
After Ezra disconnected the phone unilaterally, he put his phone on the table while leaning his back on the back of the chair.
A moment of silence was created in the room, Ezra glanced at Chloe realizing the girl was still standing there.
"Isn't it still here?"
"That's Sir.the glass..." Chloe pointed to the empty glass left over yesterday at Ezra's desk.
The green-bellied young man glanced after Chloe's index finger, He took the empty glass and handed it to the girl.
"Hurry up and get out there!"
"Yes sir," Chloe accepted it with a somewhat irritated feeling, She was annoyed at being kicked out of the room when she had intended to get out of the room without having to be expelled or ordered.
With a hurried step he went out towards the door while tightly holding the tray and the glass in his hand.
**************
[At noon, Back to work]
The srek!
"Done!" Gracia exclaimed happily after finishing her work, He washed the cloth for a while and dried it.
Chloe simply smiled as she removed her ID card and put it in her backpack, carrying her clothes instead to the toilet.
Not long after the girl returned to approach Gracia after changing clothes.
"Sister, I'm first yes,"
"Oh yes, be careful on the road," Gracia who was preparing to change clothes just smiled.
"Good brother,"
Her footsteps led her out of the Staff room leaving Gracia still preparing to return home.
**************
Chloe stopped right in front of the courtyard of the office building, her head wailing to look for public transportation or passing taxis.
The sound of vibration in his jacket pocket made the girl aware, he took his cell phone and saw the name of the caller.
"Sir Finni?"
Chloe then immediately received the call knowing the name of the caller was the person she knew.
"Hello brother,"
"Hello, am I interrupting your time?"
"No, brother, I just wanted to go home. Why sis?"
"Can we meet? I want to talk to you about something important,"
"Can Finni see where?"
"Cafe Roses, I'll send you the location. You just wait,"
"Okay, I'll be there soon,"
After that, the phone was cut off unilaterally.
Ting!
Chloe stared at the phone screen after receiving a message indicating where the Cafe where they were meeting was. No wait long Chloe rushed on the bus to get there.
Not realizing that Ezra had already noticed the girl's motion from behind the glass of the top building.
"....."
Ezra towards his desk drawer seemed to take something from there, he grabbed a tablet while fiddling with the tablet.
His green sliced netra continued to watch over the several red dots that were on the tablet screen seriously.
"It's been this afternoon, It's still going everywhere" he muttered exasperatedly.
****************
[Cafe Roses]
Kkrrieng!
The sound of bell clanking was heard as Chloe entered the area within the Cafe, followed by the noise of some customers. The cafe was filled with a sea of people as if there was no place for Chloe to find a seat.
For a moment his blue netra looked around the Cafe looking for Finnian figure there while walking away from some baristas and customers passing by.
"Cloe!"
Hearing her name being called Netra the girl immediately turned to the source of the voice, Looking at Finnian who waved at her with a bright smile.
Suddenly the girl immediately approached Finnian's desk which fortunately was not far from her position.
"Sorry, old wait?" Chloe sat opposite Finnian.
"No, my sister just arrived, too" Finnian handed one of the juices she just ordered to Chloe. "Drink now, I just ordered. You like takoyaki don't you?"
"Like it, though,"
"Good, it's been ordered, too" Finnian smiled again and drank the juice.
Chloe simply nodded and drank the juice, as her gaze was fixed outside the Cafe where there were many pedestrians and transportation vehicles coming back and forth.
"This situation reminds me of when we were baristas at Cafe Felix," Finnian slightly touched the glass of the Cafe, his gaze looking sadly at the street outside.
"Yes, but now everything has changed," Chloe looked down at the juice glass before her.
Finnian just laughed blandly, He smiled bitterly for a moment. "Well, nothing has changed as long as those memories are still there,"
Chloe looked at Finnian's face and let out a small sigh. "Pulse...So brother, what does sister want to talk about? Don't you want to talk about something important?"
Finnian then looks back at Chloe. "To be honest, nothing really matters, I just want to meet Chloe, anyway,"
As soon as the girl immediately spoke, she fell silent for a moment and shook her head slowly. "Ish, so Finni's sister lied to you?!"
Finnian chuckled softly. "Not really, Brother just want us to be nostalgic just like when we work at Cafe Felix,"
"Geez," Chloe shook her head in an inexhaustible manner on Finnian's grounds.
Taps! Taps! Taps!
A Cafe barista approaches the two of them putting Chloe and Finnian's chatter to a standstill.
"Excuse me,"
The barista placed Finnian's order after he passed from there.
"Let's eat," Get Finnian to give Chloe a plate of takoyaki.
"Thank you brother,"
Finnian nodded with a smile and ate her part of the meal, followed by Chloe.
Kkrrieng!
As his blue netra fell on one of the customers who had just entered the Cafe, the customer's appearance was somewhat mysterious with a red hat covering half of his face and a green jacket.
While bribing one of her takoyakinya Chloe continued to look at the customer, When the customer noticed around the Cafe and finally his gaze was fixed on Chloe. The girl somewhat jerked reflexively lowered her head avoiding the customer's gaze.
"Oh, I didn't realize I kept staring at him. Moga not found out," thought Chloe was embarrassed to look at the customer earlier.
The girl hurriedly continued her delayed breakfast.
**************
After her second breakfast, she headed to the cashier's table to pay for each meal.
"Thank you for taking the time today" said Finnian, taking her change and looking at Chloe beside her.
"Same-sama, sister, I'm glad to see you again,"
"Me too" Finnian smiled and his brown net looked at his watch clock, which showed at 6 p.m. "You want brother Anterin? It's just a little later that night,"
"Eh, don't take it. Chloe can go home on her own as long as it's not too late,"
"Oh yeah, be careful, yeah,"
They both intend to go out of the Cafe but suddenly the sound of gunfire accompanied by broken cafe glass makes both stop.
DOR'S!
PRANGS!
"KKKYYYAAAA!"
The situation of the cafe that was crowded and calm now turned tense, the customers scattered out of the Cafe in panic. They run around here and there is no direction even until someone hits each other to get out of there.
DOR'S! DOR'S!
The sound of gunfire was heard making the atmosphere even hotter. Chloe and Finnian panicked and looked at the people running around them.
"A-What is this?! Why like this?!" Finnian said in a panic.
"That must be because of them!" Chloe pointed to a group of red-robed people who surrounded the Cafe where they were.
The red-robed men also threatened customers with sharp weapons not to get out of there. One of the customers accidentally pushed Finnian down.
BRUK!
"Ugh.., uh....,"
"Sir Finni," Chloe's reflex helps Finnian stand up.
"NO ONE GETS OUT OF HERE! OR YOU'LL ALL DIE! NOW HAND OVER ALL YOUR VALUABLES!"
The screams from one of the red-robed groups boomed to the end of the Cafe.
Chloe sees customers give their valuables to red-robed people whose identities are unknown because they wear masks.
"It's called a robbery" Finnian whispered quietly beside Chloe.
"We need to find a way out of here, sister," whispered Chloe back.
"But how? They're surrounding this place,"
Chloe was silent for a moment looking at the chaotic situation around them, trying to find a gap so they could get out.
Taps! Taps! Taps!
Finnian and Chloe suddenly look up to realize there is someone else near them. The red-robed figure thrust out his hand.
"Give me your valuables!"
"Huh! There's no point in you robbing us. We don't have a penny!" Reject Finnian cynical. But his words were only considered the wind then by that red-robed figure.
"Give it all up or you die!" The tone of the figure began to threaten.
Chloe was intending to take a vase of flowers nearby to attack the red-robed figure but Finnian suddenly attacked the red-robed figure first, Punch after punch she launched.
"Damn you!"
THE BUAG!
Finnian did not care, he continued to attack the figure. The situation is getting worse because some customers joined in attacking the group of red robes. They all resisted and rebelled.
"Sir Finni, Stop it! Let's go!" Take Chloe to panic. Finnian did not listen to him.
The red-robed figure returned Finnian's punch no less fierce.
THE BUAG!
Chloe was busy trying to stop Finnian because she felt it was their chance to escape when the situation was chaotic. The girl did not realize that behind her was one of the other red robes wanting to attack her.
THE BUAG!
One of the customers suddenly kicked a red-robed figure behind Chloe and bounced a few meters.
Hearing the sound of a punch behind her made Chloe turn her head and find the man with the red hat and green jacket she had seen earlier.
The man raises his hat until his face is clearly visible to Chloe, Reflexes the girl approaches and grasps both hands of the man.
"Sir Ezra!" Blue net Chloe glazed over feeling pleased with Ezra's presence there. "I'm grateful you're here,"
Ezra's forehead shriveled in annoyance. "You dumb-ass! What if something happens to you. I must be responsible for you!"
"Sorry sir," Chloe grimaced softly to get a spray from Ezra, he put his hand away.
"That's it, now we don't have much time. Let's go," Ezra pulled Chloe's hand towards the exit while the situation around them was still chaotic and chaotic.
Under such circumstances certainly a group of red robes would not notice their departure.
"But sir, what about Finni?" Chloe looked anxiously at Finnian who had already toppled one of the red cloak clumps but instead Finnian had some minor injuries on his body.
"Oi blonde, aren't you coming?!" Ezra looked at Finnian.
"Bright?" For a moment Finni frowned unhappily, But without saying anything he then stood up and followed Ezra and Chloe who had run first.
**************
BLAM!
As soon as they entered Justin's parked car not far from the Cafe location, Ezra immediately tancap gas left the Cafe area after turning on the engine.
Finnian and Chloe breathed a sigh of relief feeling they were a little away from the Cafe, as Finnian stared behind him where the Cafe they were visiting seemed to be destroyed from afar.
"So tense, I could barely breathe properly" complained Finni looking at the rear-view mirror in front.
Ezra just kept silent because he focused on driving while Chloe nodded in agreement. Some time the sirens of police cars were heard accompanied by several police cars passing through their cars.
Finnian and Chloe stared for a moment at the police cars and looked at each other.
"At last help came too" said Finnian.
"Yes, but it's a little late" said Chloe.
Finnian nodded and looked at Ezra's back, whispering softly at the girl beside him.
"You know this guy?"
"Sir Ezra, he's my boss in the office" Chloe replied in a whisper.
"Seriously?" Finnian is a bit surprised and distanced himself from Chloe, realizing that Ezra is glancing at them from the rearview mirror.
"Bright, where are you asking to come down?" Ezra's voice interrupts Finnian and Chloe's chatter.
"In front, we are also far from the cafe, right?"
"Hm..."
Slowly Ezra pulled his car right in front of the bus stop. Finnian immediately removed his seatbelt and got off the car. Chloe waved softly at Finnian.
"Be careful, Finni,"
"Yes, you guys be careful too" Finnian replied to Chloe's lamb.
The car drove back leaving Finnian there. Ezra again glanced at Chloe from the rearview mirror.
"Sir, where are we going now?"
"To the office, I'm not sure if we go home now to the dormitory will be safe. Right now the red robes were roaming around, and it was too late to go home, too" Ezra's gaze focused on the quiet street in front of him. "Call Aiden, tell him we're staying at the office,"
"Good,"
Chloe fiddles with her watch to tell Aiden on Ezra's orders. Soon his vidio call was connected to Aiden across the street.
"Aiden, the situation is dire" Chloe said without further ado.
"Why what?"
"The red-robed people attacked the cafe where I met my friend, We almost died. Good thing Mr. Ezra was there to help us,"
"What are they doing?" Aiden looked furrowed his brows across there.
"They robbed some of the people's valuables there, and threatened to kill us if they didn't give it away,"
"The red cloak...Red Devil, that's the name of their group. You could say they are enemies of the Devian-led Black Devil. Identical to the red cape is the hallmark of their group" Aiden explained flatly.
"Huh? So all this time you knew about them Aiden?! All this time they've been troubling the surrounding community,"
"I don't know much about them, I just know from the rumors that are circulating. It will be very difficult to catch them, for now we just have to be vigilant,"
"Are you going home?"
"Sir Ezra said we'd stay at the office first, It's not safe to come home these nights. Moreover, the place that passed was deserted,"
"Better so,"
Chloe nodded in agreement, As she was engrossed in chatting with Aiden suddenly the car stopped suddenly making Chloe surprised and her head hit the back of the chair in front of her. And his phone with Aiden was cut off.
CCKYITT!
DUK!
"Aww!" Chloe grimaced as she rubbed her forehead.
He looked at Ezra's back for a moment. "Sir, why stop?"
"There was a tree trunk blocking the path," Ezra stared at the tree trunk that was blocking their journey, The small tree was seen falling down.
Chloe looked in front of him and realized that the road they were walking was not the road that Chloe usually knew, Automatically she was a bit panicked.
"Wait on Sir, this is a different path. Not the road I used to walk,"
"This is a detour, the usual road is under repair and closed. Didn't you see this morning a lot of heavy transportation in front of the office?"
"Yes, anyway. I just don't know when the road closes. It was this afternoon,"
"Hm...Just closed after I left,"
"Do you know the way here? It's a little quiet, yeah,"
"Have passed twice,"
After that Ezra took off his seatbelt and got out of the car to move a tree trunk that was the size of a human body so as not to block the road.
BLAM!
While Chloe chose to look at the sides of the streets that only had trees, the houses of the citizens were also there but a little far from their position.
Sisi Ezra. The black-robed youth momentarily kicked the tree trunk with his feet.
"Not too heavy, I can lift it myself,"
Ezra prepared to move the tree trunk but a knife suddenly slid towards him coming from behind the trees.
SRETT!
Ezra then avoids realizing that they were attacked, he turned to want to rush to the car. But a log swung at his head violently, making his body stagger almost fall.
BRACKET!
"Akh...!"
Someone behind Ezra swiftly covered the young man's nose with a cloth that had been drugged before, Ezra rebelled angrily he tried to remove the cloth.
On Chloe's side, the disembodied girl gasped when she heard the sound of a fight in front of her. His round blue netra was surprised to see Ezra who fell unconscious due to the action of a red-robed figure beside Ezra.
"Sir Ezra!"
Chloe panicked and tried to open the car door to get out of there. Shocks in the car were felt by the girl, she turned to her side and was increasingly surprised because two people from the Red Devil group entered the car.
The one in front of the wheel and the other one beside Chloe.
"Three Red Devil members at once?!" Thought surprised.
"Shut up! Don't move!" Threaten one of the red robes brandishing his gun in front of the girl's face.
For a moment Chloe chose silence but a few seconds later she bit the hand of one of the red robes so hard that it left a mark.
"Aarrgggh...! My hand! Fucking chick!"
Without wasting any time Chloe kicked the Red Devil member hard in the face until he fell down and he managed to get out of there. Chloe hurriedly approaches Ezra who is still unconscious.
"Sir! Ezra Sir!" In a panic Chloe patted Ezra's cheek to wake up.
"Hey! Don't run away!"
the Red Devil members chase after her, and Chloe contacts Aiden with her watch clock as fast as lightning.
"Chloe, So why–"
"Aiden, Please us–"
Not having time to finish her sentence, Chloe felt a cloth cover her nose to make it difficult for Chloe to breathe.
BBRUKK!
"Chloe?!"
TB
