Chapter 286 - This Little Madness

Nevada,

Flynn pulls his necktie a little before he looks at the reflection on the mirror. 'Ugh...I never like to wear these suit.' he groans and check on his weapon before he went out from the locker room.

"Yo, man, it's your turn right now. Go and guard at the south wing." one of the men who's been working there for more than a few months give Flynn order.

He was able to sneak in the mansion as the guard. But, the problem is that he doesn't know yet which area that James hid Alex. He never saw either James or anyone from Wayne yet at this house. This mansion is also a bit bigger than he thought.

He walked through the hallways and ended up in the last room in the south wing. Looking left and right, he can't even find one guard at all. "Am I at the right place or what?" he mutters and ready to leave.

Just as when he took a step back, he heard someone crying. The sound is really faint, and it sounded like a woman's voice. The source of the crying voice is coming from behind the door in front of him.

"Is someone here?" he try to push the door and look what inside, but just as when he opened the door, he was a bit startled of what he saw right now.

"He…help…m…me.."

"Hey! Are you a new guy here?" one of the men approaching him and pointing the gun on his head. 

Put both of his hand in above his head, Flynn nods his head. "Yeah, this is my first day here, sir," he replies to the man and keeps looking at the person who lay in an experiment table. Looking so awfully pitiful.

"What's your name?" someone pushes the muzzle of the pistol at his back before Flynn responding calmly. "Kiki, Sir."

Heard the name, one of them instruct the man from Flynn's back to lowered his weapon. "He's supposed to guard the next point and not here. Lead him there!"

Flynn's eyes still look at the woman who seems so pitiful on the experiment table. If he's not wrong, 'that woman is..Barbara Wayne? But what did she do here? And why is her condition like that??'

Is there something that happens within the Wayne family that he doesn't know? Oh, wait…he actually still don't know their situation yet. But his primary mission is to retrieve Alex.

If Barbara Wayne was already in those pitiful state, then what will Alex condition right now? Flynn starts to feel a little anxious as he was afraid he arrives too late to save Alex.

"Hey, new guy!" the man who leads Flynn out from that room suddenly called him.

"Hm?" Flynn turns his head to his side. Looking at that young man who he believes doesn't even know how to use that gun properly. To think someone whose young as this guy does some dirty job like this…make him sighed deeply.

What happens to humanity these days? Can't they just find a normal job to feed their family?

"Don't ever think of saving that woman. She's under the boss's supervision. We'll be killed if we try to save her. Do you understand?" the boy said while looking on the floor. From his reaction, Flynn could guess that he also feels guilty about looking at her without able to help her.

"What happens to her?" Flynn tries to collect some info from this young boy. Maybe he can tell him where did they hide Alex?

"She…Ah...I don't know, man..the boss said to give her the med and skinned her body part by part." the boy looks like he could cry in no time. Maybe it was too much for him to involve in something 'dark' like that.

Flynn bit his lips. He was also shocked to saw how bad Barbara's condition is. Just…how could someone can be that cold to treat his own wife like that? This is truly an insane thing that is going on here.

"How long has it been since that lady…came here?" 

"It's been two days. I don't think that woman can hold for any longer." the boy said, and he taps his hand on the wall. "Here. This is your post for tonight's shift."

Flynn looks around him, and all he can see is only a wall and a door to a room. "What do I need to guard, actually?" there's nothing that he can guard in this post. There's nothing valuable either in the hallways too.

"Just make sure there's no one enter the room except for the boss." the boy then pointing his finger at the door across Flynn's post.

"What's in there?" Flynn tries to pry the boy's information, but it seems like the boy put on his guard up. "Don't ask too much question, new guy. Just do as they told you, or you'll die."

Flynn shrugged his shoulder before he nods his head at the boy. "Fine. Thanks, man, for showing me the way here." Flynn's standing straight like a guard should after that boy leaves him.

Being in mission and act as a guard is too regular for him. It's quite an easy task for him, but for right now, he needs to put on extra cautious as he can't expose his identity. Primarily when he conducts a mission without an official instruction from his higher-ups.

Looking at both sides of the way, he was sure there's no other guard but him. He wants to look inside the room, but what if the one who's in that place is actually James and not Alex?

It's like slaughtering himself in front of his enemy, wouldn't it? He waited for an hour before he slowly walks a little close to the door. 

Taking out his device that he slips in his sleeve, he tries to stick it on the wall, but just when he wants to put it on the wall, someone walks at the end of the corridor. He can only tap it near the vase next to the door before he hurriedly went to his post again.

"You!" the man who just appears at the end of the hall call Flynn from the end of the corridor.

"Yes, sir."

"Follow me. Your post will be changed to another wing." the man said, and Flynn had no choice except to follow the man. It seems like the post is likely to be changed every a few hours. 

This makes him hard to sneak Alex out of the mansion. On top of that, he still needs to find out just where did James hid Alex. If Flynn can sneak out early then, maybe he can send help to rescue Madam Barbara, who he just saw.

Even though he might not be a person with a big heart, he also has his humanity in him. How could he just let it slide like that? Someone is murdering his own wife without anyone knowing it. He must be crazy to do something like this to his own wife!

"You'll have prepared breakfast. It's almost dawn and that little bastard like to have his breakfast before the sunrise." said the one who bring Flynn to the kitchen.

"Little bastard?" Flynn scrunches his eyebrow a little. 'Is it Alex?' His eyes already shimmering like a star.

"Yeah. That stupid tiger at the back of this mansion. That beast is our boss's new pet. He must be feed with fresh chicken b.r.e.a.s.t meat. Make sure you make it delicious, or that little bastard would make you get killed by our boss. Last time there's already two people get killed because of that stupid tiger. Make sure you're not the next one." the man said before leaving Flynn at the kitchen counter.

"What? Even tiger get privilege for breakfast? What kind of hobby this James have?" Flynn sighed and started to make breakfast for the tiger.

While he was alone in the kitchen, he used this opportunity to put on a hidden camera where people can't find it. At least, he needs a location or a place where they could give a hint of where Alex is hidden.

After he's done making the tiger breakfast, Flynn went to the back of the mansion and checked for himself. Like what has been told by the man earlier, the tiger looks furious and keeps growling when seeing him. Maybe the tiger angry because he was chained to the pole.

'Flynn, what a bless that you even had to handle this little madness..' Flynn rolled his eyes and put the breakfast bowl in front of the tiger. The tiger scrumptiously eats the minced chicken b.r.e.a.s.t.

"Does it taste good?" Flynn said to the beast which already sleeps soundly after he is done eating.

"Of course, it's good. Just look who's made it," Flynn smirk a little and take the bowl back.

The truth is..he put some med on the meat. It's like sleeping pills that work on the dangerous animal. Now that this beast is already asleep looks like he can find a way to make sure this beast did not interrupt his plan later on.

"Sleep tight, beast.." he then walks back to the house. But, Flynn didn't notice that someone was watching him from afar, and it almost makes that someone jump in joy.
