Just as Gabi expected, the lasers were following a pattern. In fact, she could see it follow a set of rhythms. It was as if… it was following to a tune! A piece of music! Gabi looked at the few people who were still hiding not far away from her. She was already halfway through the concrete when another laser beam appeared. This time, it was green.
Luckily, no one was hit. However, the concrete that was hit by the laser beams suffered a huge crack in the middle. The ones that fit the floor created an enormous hole. As if a lightning bolt just hit it.
This time, Ma Ping explained that this laser beam can cut someone's head with one hit.
Who would dare move after such an announcement?
These people were really trying to kill them!
Unlike Gabi, some of the people here worked hard to be accepted in this school. Now, this only made Gabi confused.
Why?
Why go to a place like this?
Perhaps they are desperate to get stronger, too?
Gabi bit her lower lips as she closed her eyes and started analyzing the movements of the beams earlier. She couldn't figure out something, one key, something that would enable her to solve this problem.
Problem!
That's right!
This looked like an equation!
Was it possible that she could predict the next movement just by solving this as a mathematical equation?
Gabi grew up inside that mansion for years. And her hobby? Naturally, it was reading and studying! She graduated ahead of her age because of her intellect! Because of her weak body, she thought she could help support Alfons just by being smart. And of course, she succeeded.
Her body used to be weak, but her mind was not. And most importantly. After whatever it was that Aden did, she felt that her brains had become sharper. She had become smarter!
Almost immediately, her mind started the computation. Her eyes soon widened. 'In .0097 seconds, the blue laser will hit to her west, three meters away from her.
*BOOM*
She was right?
This time, Gabi didn't feel her heart race. On the contrary, it was calm — too calm, it felt weird. The feeling was foreign to her. Again, she started counting and this time she tested the red laser together with the blue laser.
According to her observation, there were about twenty-nine different lasers. Eighteen red, seven blue, and the rest were green.
Because of the intensity of the green laser, their numbers were obviously lesser than the other.
A smile suddenly rose on her face when she realized that she was right! Her computation had been correct. This was a big mathematical equation.
Now, she couldn't help but wonder who would do something like this. What kind of lunatic would use this type of problem to fire lasers? A bored one? Hmmm... definitely a crazy one!
….
"Achoo! Someone must be thinking about me." Aden crossed his legs. "Anyway, you are here now because of some important things." He handed the file to the man across from him.
"Sigh… you actually dared to summon a prince in this place."
"I am leaving. I have no time to visit you in the palace and it's bothersome. I don't want to see your father."
"Father dotes on you so much. He treats you better than he treats me. Why are you complaining like that?" the man who spoke had white long hair that was neatly tied in a ponytail behind him. His face wasn't particularly handsome. However, the glint in his eyes showed a different type of cunningness that not many people possess. He always had a kind on his lips that didn't reach his eyes.
Aden used to call this man the tricksters. Though he is only calling him this because of his appearance. Aden used to say that it looked like the Prince was a hooligan.
"Isn't this because I am smarter than you?" Aden said. "If I wasn't smart, do you think your father would treat me like this?"
"Anyway… why are you leaving?"
"Because I don't want to see you?"
"Hey… stop joking around. I thought you don't like to see Aunt Lyca?"
"Idiot, she is my mother. Who told you that I don't want to see her?"
"Ah… am I wrong?" The man lifted his eyebrow before he chuckled and laughed. "Aunt Lyca has always been a scary woman. I just thought you were scared of her."
"Why do you always tell me that I am scared? When, in fact… you are the one who felt intimidated by my mother?" Aden argued. Weak people easily get intimidated by his mother. Obviously, he wasn't one of those weak people. "I am doing something important."
"Oh?? Was it Sister Aya?"
"No. Aya's good."
"Then is Aunt Lyca sick?"
"She won't get sick even if she wanted to."
"How could you say something like that to your own mother?"
"It's true!"
"Alright, you should stop changing the topic this time. Why are you leaving the country?"
"Experiments."
The man's expression immediately turned serious. However, this time, he didn't ask any more questions. He open the files and started reading. "The Sealey's huh…"
"I want them destroyed."
"The evidence is sufficient. However, the Sealey's are attacking the Ren Family. If we intervened…"
Aden squinted. "I can do it on my own. But… it would be very… very messy. And your mother wouldn't like that."
The man immediately pursed his lips. He looked irritated. But what can he do? If Aden takes care of things, blood would surely flow the streets of this country. This man was lazy in dealing with his enemies, he wanted to end them as quickly as possible.
Right.
Just like his mother.
Aden Shen was definitely a lunatic.
"Alright… I will take care of it. Their main branch had been doing some things behind the back of the crown. We needed to teach them a little lesson."
"Good. Now as reward… here… take it."
"What's this, a magic potion?" he looked at the vial with green liquid and held it against the chandelier.
"Anti poison."
"You— "
"One drop and you are safe from any venom or poison for a month. It's gonna last you one year."
Understanding flashed in the man's eyes. "Thank you.. This is a precious gift. I will definitely take care of the Sealey Family!"
