Chapter 28

The journey back seemed long and annoying for Kelvin who watched Lucas sitting beside Sunni. He was obviously jealous but wanted to fool himself with the fact that they were relations.
They finally arrived at the agency as the van pulled over at a distance. They got out and left Gabe who was doing the driving to park it
With Sunni, Lara, kelvin, Lucas and Ryan standing outside. They looked ahead at the building as Sunni smiled in excitement. She couldn't believe her dream was coming true.
"Let's go in" Lara said as they walked into the building.
They made their way into the elevator and were taken up to their desired floor.
On getting there they got out.
"Follow me, I'll take you around" Ryan offered.
"No. Let me do the orientation" Kelvin offered
"No" Lucas declined. He could understand the basic of Kelvin wanting to take Sunni away.
"Why not?" Kelvin snapped.
"Well don't try argue now...I'll do it" Lara insisted looking at Sunni" Let's go".
"Okey" Sunni happily followed Lara as they left.
Kelvin, Lucas and Ryan was left there as Ryan looked at both men who were glaring at each other "I'll....be in my office" He left.
"Let me take you around" Kelvin suggested, glaring at Lucas.
"Sure.... let's go" Lucas agreed as both men left to their own direction.
*********
"This will be your new office from now on. I personally prepared it for you" Lara said leading Sunni into an office which seemed to newly organized.
Looking at it, Sunni felt like she was dreaming, but pinching herself wasn't an option either. Even in a dream, she was still happy and wouldn't like to wake from this dream!
"Woah....this is wonderful.....I like it ...so much.... thanks" She appreciated.
Lara smiled" Glad you like it" Lara strolled around the office for a while as Sunni who took a while admiring the office decided to ask.
"But... why did you boss suddenly decide to recruit me?" She asked, slightly curious.
Lara smiled" Well.... let's just say that my boss has his reasons...he is a very sophisticated person with a broad vision of talent. so I can simply tell that he saw something In you that is worth exploring. So don't think much about it and try your best to make the Best of it"
Sunni smiled "Sure, I will"
Lara sat down on the office seat looking up at Sunni. "So tell me, what was your last job before this?"
Sunni felt awkward telling her her bad job history but this being her dream job, she guessed she had to be Sincere to those who had given her the chance to he what she Wanted.
Tangling her fingers together nervously, she explained "Well...the thing about me is that each job I've managed to get ...I never last long in it. No matter how long I've tired, I just get fired...But being a detective has been my dream job, Ever since I was young, I have always practiced being a detective, so I'm sure I'll have the skills to try my best" She smiled. "And actually, my last job was one I intended to keep. A little detective agency I set up with Lucas as my first partner."
Lara looked at her "Your partner you say?"
Sunni had just realized what she had said, she had given off her lie "Well it's not what I mean ...."
"It's okey. We're girls....so I'll keep this secret for you." She smiled. Sunni too smiled" Thanks, I wouldn't want to get misunderstanding"
"Misunderstanding? He isn't your boyfriend?" Lara asked.
"No no no ....He's not ..he's just a partner....I promise" Sunni explained.
"Oh, I see" Lara nodded.
*************
Dave Lin got out of the cab and made his payment. He looked at his watch, it was 3:00pm.
He simply walked ahead into the agency and took the elevator up. Just as he stood alone in the elevator waiting to get to his desired floor, he decided to get out his phone and go through the message which he had received when he was in the van on his way to go Sunni's place.
He message was from an anonymous number who sent him the text.
~Meet me at the old Spring Hall at XXX street, I have something really important to share with you.... Something That I've seen and shouldn't, maybe related to the night comet killer ..And this is tormenting me..... I want to give it to you and before it's too late ~

The strange message had excited him as he left but on getting to the Old Spring Hall, he had waited for hours but to no avail. He tried calling the number but it was switched off and having waited long, it didn't seem that the person who had sent the message was coming. It was really something strange but he left back to the agency hoping for another message to information.
When the elevator finally arrived at his destination, the door was opened and he got out. He was walking towards his office thinking about the incident when Lara came from a direction, meeting him.
"Boss.... you're back?" She smiled on seeing him.
"Well ... yeah" Dave replied looking at her. "Where is Miss Yang?"
"Well I decided to handle her orientation since she'd be more comfortable with me as a fellow girl. So we just concluded, I left her in the office" Lara explained.
"Okey ...well call her in my office" Dave stated as he walked off into his office. Lara left to go deliver the message.
After a while of sorting papers on his desk, a knock came on Dave's door as replied "Come in"
As the door opened, Sunni nervously walked in ⁰closing the door. "You ... called me in"
Dave looked up at the petite lady, his cold eyes giving off the reluctance vibes. "Come here"
She walked up to stand before his table. As Dave handed her a file.
"This is your first mission. A trail mission" He had to make her employment seem real.
"huh? mission?" She repeated.
"Of course, As a new employee and a straight admission into the main team, I have to test you. So go home and prepare with this file, tomorrow we shall leave for your mission" He was still concentrated on his papers on the desk.
"Oh ..yeah...yes....I will.... Thanks" Sunni bowed in appreciation as she left the office. Dave looked up with a sigh. He would have to think up a way to use her to get information on the Alien As soon as possible.
It was already night and time to go. Sunni who had been studying the file had finally closed it. Truth he told, she understood nothing from it! it was like reading a foreign language! But with much gibberish! she wondered how humans understood this!
Sitting up, she stretched out herself with a sign, indicating her tiredness. She was probably going to go home and have a nice rest, celebrating with Hana on the new job had to wait tomorrow which was Saturday, but come to think of it, she had a mission tomorrow.
After packing up, she left her office to go home when she realized she had come with Lucas.
With an exhausted sigh, She went off to look for him. she met Lara on the way and asked her " Well....where is my brother...?"
With a smile, she replied" Well he should be in Gabe's office"
She went off to Gabe's office and on opening the door was irritated by the strong smell of alcohol.
Hesitating, she looked up at the scene of kelvin and Lucas seated at opposite ends in the room on a couch with bottles of alcohol littered on the floor. She looked at Lucas who still seemed sober and drinking but kelvin was already long drunk but still drank, uttering drunken mummers.
She walked in towards Gabe who was on his office seat, looking at the two men. She asked. "What's this?"
Gabe shrugged "How am I to know why they've been having a drinking competition for about half a day now"
Sunni was shocked "Half....a..... day??"
Gabe nodded. "And it seems Lucas is the winner. He's a pro drinker"
Sunni casted Lucas a cold glare "I'll be off Gabe" She said pulling by hand and drawing him off.
Lucas who was obviously sobber followed her off as they got out of the agency.
"Are we going home?" Lucas asked.
"Shut up and stand there" Sunni commanded. She couldn't imagine this man wanting to give himself off! He was a monster or something after all, he could hold liquor. But still!
Sunni stopped a cab as both got in. Their journey back was quiet and not long, they arrived at their destination. They got out.
"I'll be off, you should go" Sunni said.
"But...."
"No buts! go" Sunni snapped as she turned to leave but suddenly heard a sound.
Turning, she was shocked to see Lucas on the floor, unconscious. Shocked, she widened her eyes " What's this?!" She quickly rushed to try pulling him up but he was really unconscious. "What's This....Hey! wake up! Wake up!"
Just then, Hana was coming out of the building to throw trash when she saw the scene. She looked closely only to see her friend, trying to wake a man up.
"Sunni?" She called as Sunni turned shocked to see Hana. She was speechless. Why was this happening? First this man fainted here and now she was discovered??
This is not okey!
