“Someone I follow. Leads me to a remote place, that island, where human research is located. That's what Kiau remembers." Kiau pulled the knife away from Sherwin's neck. "Irung doesn't know you at all. And they too, Tieden, Niem and Pifu, none of them have ever seen you.”
"Who are you?" Kiau asked.
Sherwin chuckled. Kiau was still on top of him. While the others were still standing in their respective places, no one approached them.
"You want to explain, or am I the one who saw it in your blood of death?" Kiau said it in a flat tone. The knife closer to Sherwin's neck until it leaves a scratch mark.
"If you kill me, you won't be able to get there." said Sherwin confusing the others, except Kiau.
"Don't worry, someone has taught me how to slash your body not until you bleed to death." Kiau said flatly.
"Oops.. I didn't know it would be useful." Niem behind Kiau giggled in amusement, he realized what Kiau meant was when he tortured Kiau earlier. No one understood Kiau's intentions except for Niem and Tieden.
Sherwin saw it, Kiau's eyes filled with conviction and no doubt. This person in front of him, could calmly end his life. “Okay,” Sherwin gave in.
"Mr Sherwin?" Rudal looked confused, "You really have something to do with all this?" he still wasn't sure, someone who was nearby was one of the people related to the research.
Sherwin looked at the Missile “You can call it Courier.” Sherwin tilted his head back. "I delivered everything." Kiau was still holding the knife at Sherwin's neck, “Can't you put it away first? And you're too heavy, get lost!" Sherwin glared at Kiau who was still on top of him.
Kiau replied with an expressionless expression, “You can still talk, can't you? Then keep talking." Kiau brought his face closer to Sherwin, "I don't care about that, I just need to hear your explanation." Sherwin looks very annoyed with Kiau's reply.
“Calm down you two,” Niem's relaxed voice averted Kiau's and Sherwin's eyes. Niem pulled out a chair and casually sat on it, “Just let him go Kiau. We can chat while sitting and drinking a cup of tea.” Niem crossed his legs.
"Uwah.. he's so relaxed," Izen chuckled at Niem's behavior. While Kiau ignored him and was still in the same position. "It's also true what Niem said. We'd better sit around drinking. Rudal can you prepare a drink?” Izen turned his head towards Rudal.
Rudal was confused but he did what Izen told him to do, he went to the kitchen to make a drink.
While Pifu was surprised by Izen's behavior, "You are also very relaxed yourself," said Pifu subconsciously. Izen who heard that turned to Pifu and smiled, but what was there made Pifu shudder in horror and regret what he said, "N-no i-I mean... that... I'm sorry...".
Izen chuckled at Pifu's exaggerated reaction, "You too, sit down." Izen pulled Pifu and sat him down on one of the chairs beside him. Not letting Pifu have a chance to try to escape.
"There's nothing wrong with this." Tieden also sat on the chair and he smiled. "He won't be able to escape after all. We have enough people to intercept it.”
Sherwin chuckled “I'm having a hard time breathing with you on top of me. And it also makes it difficult for me to speak of course.” he smirked, contrary to what he said.
Kiau is also still feeling tired and exhausted, maybe he needs to calm himself down a bit. He pulled the knife away from Sherwin's neck. Sherwin smiled triumphantly. While Kiau is still with a flat and cold expression. Kiau stood up. He tugged at Sherwin's collar and dragged him to a chair.
“What do you mean by ‘courier’?” Izen opened the conversation. Kiau looked at Sherwin, not for a second to take his eyes off Sherwin.
"I'm a courier. Deliver everything." Sherwin sneered, “You think the stuff in the lab you need appeared on their own? Or your daily groceries can walk alone to the island?” Sherwin laughed loudly.
"That's right," Niem giggled amused. He had never thought of that before. They never questioned such a thing.
“I deliver food, goods and people.” continued Sherwin. His words this time made the atmosphere calm and eerie. "The people you made experimental mice for." Sherwin looked at everyone one by one, “You think they came alone?” Sherwin's gaze stopped on Pifu. Pifu gasped in surprise, then she was scared to see Sherwin's eyes.
“Ah~ except for this one.” Sherwin looked up at Kiau who was standing beside his chair. “You really came alone,” he laughed loudly, “What a fool!” the laugh is getting hard. Kiau's expression didn't change, he was still silent. Seeing that reaction Sherwin was a little disappointed.
Izen broke the silence, "Then, what do you mean by 'there'?" Izen asked again, recalling Sherwin's previous sentence, he previously said 'If you kill me, you won't be able to get there'. Tieden, Niem, and Kiau seemed to know the place Sherwin was referring to.
"You want to know?" Sherwin smirked at Izen. "That place. Where that person is. Someone who is the main mastermind behind this research.” Sherwin leaned back in his chair.
“Courier, as a liaison. Surely you have information from the person who ordered you.” said Izen.
"You want to meet that person instead of Kiau?" he looked back up at Kiau. "What do you want to do after you meet him, Kiau?" he chuckled.
"Just tell me where he is." Kiau answered flatly.
"You can meet him, but on one condition he gives." Sherwin looked at the others in turn. Sherwin hadn't said anything yet, but Kiau had stopped him.
"You're not in a position to ask for conditions." Kiau pointed his knife again.
“That's a waste,” Sherwin smirked, “I've never been there. So I won't have any memory of that place." he chuckled. "Just obey, and I will deliver you." Sherwin crossed his arms.
Kia looks annoyed. Niem and Tieden didn't give any significant reaction. Izen was still listening carefully.
“He asked the four of us to come together didn’t he?” Niem joined the conversation. "The second generation," continued Niem.
Tieden looked worried, “Niem, you mustn't say unnecessary things.” Tieden was afraid that Niem would reveal everything, while there were still people who had nothing to do with research. Tieden turned his head towards Izen and Rudal.
"Not really." Sherwin's answer surprised Niem and Tieden. “He wants all of you to come.”
"All?" Niem looks confused. "That is, too?" Niem pointed at Izen and the Missile.
“We people are not things, Niem.” Izen was a little annoyed with Niem's sentence. But Izen didn't really mind it, “We really want to come. If you're invited like that, even better." Izen smiled at Sherwin while embracing Rudal at his side. "And Pifu seems too scared to just go with you guys," Izen patted Pifu's shoulder.
Pifu flinched, but then quickly nodded. “Mmm… Looks like he's afraid of you too.” Niem said, but Izen ignored it.
But Kiau looks displeased, "We can't get together..." Kiau's sentence was stuck.
"There is no other choice to meet him." Tieden joined the conversation. "There's only four of us after all, he won't be able to carry out his plan."
Kiau looked at Tieden. He still had doubts. "Okay. I don't care about the plan. I just want to end all of this.” Kiau finally agreed.
"Deliver us, Courier."
