The Zetta Sonic
Road

A place that can be called a home.

Jayden's words imprint in Alex's mind all the way home. He wondered what the young man meant. On the other hand, he himself was unsure of his lavish manor that often left him lonely rather than comfortable. Days of living in the reservoir, he misses only Preston, Rover, his computer desk.

Jayden hasn't talked much since he got in the car. So did Alex. They left the reservoir on a secret passage under the bridge.

Bright sunlight shone on their black SUV car. The inside condition is no different from SUVs in general. There are no monitors or advanced features of ICPA. There's only a music player, a touch screen, a dice hanger on the rearview mirror. The smell itself is reminiscent of a new car.

Alex looked outside. He was watching everything he could observe. High-rise office buildings, pedestrian crowds, queues at red lights. This is a city he knows. The general atmosphere happens. Ignoring all the crowds, everything feels peaceful. Everything that happened yesterday was like a dream that was too real.

“How long?” Alex broke the silence as they stopped at a crossroads of a large street near his home.

“Headline repair? Who knows? Nadira has a lot of things in her head.”

“So, these will be quiet days for all of us?” Alex hopes Jayden will give some kind of answer ‘not’ with certainty or at least say ‘don't expect much’. In reality, Jayden was only twisting his shoulders. “You also have many things in your grasp.”

“If you mean it's work, yes.”

“Can I help?”

Jayden fell silent, turning to the child beside him who had been staring out into the street. “You? Helping me?” Jayden ran his car again as soon as the traffic light turned green. “My work isn't always related to hacking things, Alex. Checking Baron is not a priority now.”

“Oke.”

“Do not do that!”

“I didn't say anything.”

“That's exactly it,” Jayden chuckles. “Hey, everything is clearly written on your face. My advice, better take your time to rest first. I seriously. You needit. I agree with doctor Vanessa.”

Alex sighs. “What does that mean Zetta Sonic won't show up for a while?”

“It looks like so.”

Alex wouldn't deny that it wasn't the answer he wanted to hear. However, considering that no mission had finished perfectly in his hands, it might be a good idea if he retreated first for a while. Nadira planned something for them. Whatever it is, it must be for the common good.

To this day, he cannot forget his father's face. That stern face hides the calm behind it is also a big secret that he is one of the leaders of the ICPA. He wondered how could his father never tell him such an important thing? Now, the question came back to him. Could it be that one day he could tell such an important thing to his father?

Jayden stopped in front of Alex's house. As usual, Preston was already there, waiting for him. This time, there's a rover next to Preston. Alex said nothing. He knew clearly that the ICPA had set the right reasons for him to reach Preston and Mrs. Bellsey is silent to this day.

Alex went down without bringing anything, without saying anything else, without even turning back. He doesn't have to. He knew they would meet again soon.

Everything goes back to zero. A different zero point.

Alex went back to his room. Preston brought me some snacks and cold milk this time. Mrs. Bellsey had left the room finished reading out her new schedule. He had a few hours before the course started. Alex dropped himself on a swivel chair, facing the computer desk. The rover was sleeping under his feet.

The large screen showed a plain screen. With a single touch, his room lights dimmed and his screen began to glow. It starts with a plain hita screen, with a bee silhouette at the bottom. Jayden asks himself and Zetta Sonic to rest. He followed this rice. But Killer Bee has a different plan.

In the car, Jayden must have thought he was going to investigate the Baron. It seems that it is not right. Alex has something else to investigate.

Some time ago, he hacked his father's finances to get to know a little more about who and what is done. At that time, he got an email. The email that should have been sent to her father was not her. Given that every ICPA conducts espionage, it would not be strange if the sender of the email is also one of his father's men.

Even so, this thought had some irregularities. For example, why do these emails come in when the financial system is hacked? Why didn't you go to her father's email address? Shouldn't the ICPA have their own secret lines of communication?

For Alex, the answer is simple. The email sender does not know that the financial system is being hacked. He sent it while thinking that Mark Hill was checking his own account instead of someone else's. It seems strange that any ICPA member did such a reckless thing given how they have survived in secret to this day. Alex is pretty sure the email sender is not an ICPA member. He is a layman who wants the Zetta Sonic operation stopped. No matter who the recipient of the email is.

Jayden will catch him again if he hacks into the father system or the ICPA system. But, this is another story. The email sender is not a member of them. Killer Bee will find him, catch him, and talk to him. The man should know the father and have a clear reason. Alex is hoping to get to know her father more than ever.

Even if Alex didn't listen to the ICPA board meeting yesterday until it was over, he knew that the Zetta Sonic operation or the Zetta Sonic Special Force was not enough to support the other leaders. He himself had no intention of pitting the leaders. To the extent that the perpetrator could satisfy Alex with an answer, he had no plans to drag this person in front of the ICPA.

Of course, unless the perpetrator did endanger him.

Alex fingers down the white bracelet in his hand. Zet-arm team. It's the only reminder that she's Zetta Sonic herself. Dragon Blood had already gushed out. No one can repeat or cancel this process. There is no other way but to move forward. Nobody's gonna stop him.

Alex smiled as he played his fingers on the keyboard. If all his thoughts with Jayden are right and Baron is behind them, he should pray. Alex won't let the man who tried to blow up his father get away with it. Whatever the reason.

He must face Zetta Sonic, Killer Bee, and Alexander Hill. Believe me, the latter name is more dangerous than the previous two names.
