145 Chapter 137 - Underwater Cave and Family's Issues.

In the ship-submarine.

"Wow, never thought this ship can be this advanced." said Sky while looking around the ship-submarine which slowly descending into the deep sea.

"So, tell us, what else of high tech things you have?" Chris asked.

"High tech thing? You mean like this ship? We have a hot air balloon with automated navigator and carts that can fly like a bird." said Junior.

"Wow, although it's quite common in some other dimensions, but it's definitely not common at here. Where did you get those things?" Sky asked.

"Well, my pop made it." said Junior, as if there's nothing wrong with that answer.

"Wow! That's rather surprising! Never thought Grandpa White to be so talented." said Sky.

"Yes, indeed. Come to think of it, now I recalled it, I found that it's extremely ironic for the Teacher's family. Especially their 'discrimination' towards those 'uneducated rural people'." said Chris, a bit sarcastic.

"Ah... Now you mentioned that, I feel exactly the same as you." said Sky.

"Well, that man considers my pop as a freak with weird hobbies of making some 'useless' things. He said it's a waste of resources." said Junior.

"Ah-ah... No wonder their son behaved that way." said Sky.

"You mean Darrie? What's wrong with him?" Junior asked.

"Uhm... Nope, nothing." said Sky.

Meanwhile, the teacher's house. Ben is having some talk with the boy in a room while the boy's parents are quarreling outside the room until a state that Ben needs to put on a sound barrier around the room. The husband is shouting at his wife for begging Grandpa White in this matter as he thinks it's a humiliation to him. While the wife is in tears trying her best to stand firm for her son.

After a while, Ben comes out from the room, he stared at Mr. Teacher with a disapproval look. Mr. Teacher turned away as he saw Ben, while Mrs. Teacher anxiously approached Ben, asking him about her son.

"Don't worry, he should be okay right now, you may accompany him in the room, I need to talk with your husband for a while." said Ben, then Mrs. White entered the room and closed the door.

Ben walked towards Mr. Teacher, he asked him to go outside, Mr. Teacher did as Ben said.

"Sir, what I'm going to ask might be a bit harsh. Darrie is really your biological son, right?" Ben asks, in a rather polite and formal tone.

"Of course he is my son. Why would you ask this kind of question?" said Mr. Teacher, a bit irritated.

"Then I shall consider whatever you did or said to him was mean good for him with no other ill intentions." said Ben.

"What do you mean by that? Whatever I am doing is for the sake of my son for sure." said Mr. Teacher.

"Anxiety? What's that?" Mr. Teacher asked. Yes, it is really normal for people from the older generation to be unfamiliar with that word, even for teachers, if they are not familiar with science.

"It's a type of psychological disorder." said Ben.

"What? You mean my son has lost his sanity? Is it because of that incident last week?" Mr. Teacher asked, rather mad.

"Uhm... Nope and nope." said Ben, a bit speechless at the teacher's response. And again, it is normal for the older generation to be considering all the mental illness as 'insane'.

Back to Sky and others. They had reached the mentioned underwater cave with the submarine ship. It's a really normal rock cave with a man-build tunnel locked with a really advanced door with a fingerprint lock panel that is still functioning.

"Uhm... Do you by any chance have any of your mother's fingerprints?" Sky asked.

"No." said Junior. Then, Sky gets slapped on his head by Chris.

"Can you try putting your own hand on that panel, I have a feeling that it might work." said Chris.

Junior nodded and walked towards the door. He placed his right hand on the panel.

"Handprint recognized, Junior White, hand size updated." said a voice from the lock panel. Then, the door opened.

They walk in, inside is a really huge advanced laboratory.

"I guess this is made by your father as well." said Chris, a bit amused by the sight.

"Actually I never heard about this before. But the structure inside is almost the same as the one my pop has at home." said Junior.

"I see... Hold on! You mean Grandpa White's house has a lab like this one? Despite of been a farmhouse?" said Sky, a bit astonished.

"Yes, it's in our basement." said Junior, as if nothing wrong with that.

"Wow..." Sky is amazed by those words.

"But if Gramps White has such a technology, why he can't create a GPS system to track for Kiffy chan that da... Uuuhhh... Uhhh..." Sky and Chris covered Maria's mouth before he could complete his sentence.

"Kiffy? What's wrong with my sweetheart? Something happened to her?" Junior asked, a bit anxious when heard about his daughter.

"Nope, everything is fine." said Sky and Chris.

White's village.

Ben is trying his best to explain things to Mr. Teacher.

"Anxiety is an extremely uneasy and anxious feeling that usually caused by continuous overflowing of stress, although some of them are not caused by stress, but for your son's case, I'm very certain that it's caused by stress. And from the conversation I had with him earlier, I found that he had shown the symptoms way earlier than a week ago. Do you understand what I am talking about?" said Ben trying to be as layman as possible.

"Not quite, I don't think a twelve years old boy will have such a thing as stress." said Mr. Teacher, a bit dissatisfied by Ben's explanation.

"Well, that's what I am going to tell you now." said Ben while adjusting his glasses forming a rather scary look due to the light reflection on his glasses.

Chris: "Hmm?"

Sky: "As what Chris said. Right now, this story is free on the authorized platform, so please read it from authorized platforms as mental support for the writer."

Chris: "Mhm... There are two authorized platforms. One is webnovel.com. And another one is that messy and half-dead Weebly site that she uses for draft and backup... But not recommended."

Sky: "Ah... Haha. Yes, as Chris said."

Chris: "But look out, those scums might change this note to their own website link. So, be cautious.

Sky : "By the way, if the cover page is the old cover page that shows two stickmen, stop reading it, it's cursed and might caused the writer to stop writing."
