Chapter 63 - Shadow Moon IV

"It's been six months since we found out about the existence of the Shadow Moon, but how come I didn't receive any new information regarding them? what the hell are you people doing!?" Said the head of the UG intelligence office.

"Sir we are doing everything we can, to gather information about them. but every time they move our people always gets there too late, and they never leave any trace behind"

"So why don't you investigate all the establishments connected to them? there are countless of them, all over the UG or are telling me you can't find them either!?" Said, Peter Lacson

Peter Lacson was the head of UG intelligence office for the last 30 years he will be retiring soon, ever since the fall of Spider, he was plagued with countless work, as the top government officials of UG are constantly harassing him for being incompetent and this past year and a half it only becomes more intense special six months ago when the name Shadow Moon is revealed. they thought they can finally have a breakthrough in their investigation but six months later the only thing they know about Shadow Moon is still the only thing they today, for over 30 years of his career as the head of the intelligence office as well as being an intelligence officer for 20 years before being promoted as the head, he never once experienced something like this, for no organization that they tried to investigate, no matter how secretive they are, they will still learn new things about them every now and then.

But this Shadow Moon, no matter how much they investigate they can't find anything new. he was beginning to suspect that this Shadow Moon is nothing but a sham and didn't really exist, but they still can't explain the fall of Spider, for that has been confirmed. and as for who caused it they have no idea.

Peter didn't even know how many times he said the line incompetent to his subordinates, many have chosen to retire early because they can no longer take the pressure.

"Sir we already did that but even those affiliated with them didn't know anything besides their name, according to the people we investigated they come and go like a wind, and every operation they have is extremely well planned and our people can only found out anything after they are done, and they didn't leave any trace behind, but one thing we do know is that they are using the Spider old HQ as their base of operation. But every people we send there disappears for a few days only to be found somewhere in UG without any memory of what happened. and some have never been found unless we attack at full force in their HQ, I'm afraid we won't be able to find any new info for the time being. Sir"

"No! Full force attack on them will never be approved as long as we didn't have any concrete evidence against them because technically they remain innocent of all crime and even if by chance we capture them we don't have anything to charge them with!" Said, Peter. he massages his forehead this business about Shadow Moon is giving him an endless headache he even felt his lifespan shortening.

"Sigh, have you contacted The Speaker? Have they found anything new?" Ask Peter.

"Yes sir, and they have nothing new sir"

Even though as an intelligence office it is shameful to rely on another intelligence organization they have no choice at this moment the only joy they have is that even The Speaker is as powerless as they are...

"Is that so that's good news" Peter mumbled

"Sir?. What's good news?"

"Shut up go out there and do your job" shouted Peter in embarrassment.

He didn't think he is speaking out loud.

"Sigh, I'm getting too old for this shit." Said Peter as he slumped back into his chair.

...........

"Any new news about Shadow Moon?" Ask Gregory in a deep voice.

"No, sir."

Gregory was the head of the investigator assigned to UG to gather Intel about Shadow Moon He's been the 5th to be sent here by The Speaker the rest just suddenly disappears, The Speaker is deeply rooted into many countries their Spy is everywhere, they have spies on every organization in the world that's just how much network they have. many of their spies are just common people, therefore its impossible to be completely eradicated. some didn't even know they giving intel to The Speaker.

The Speaker is very renowned for having the most intel in the world and they are proud of it.

But the organization Shadow Moon becomes a stain in their name that they can never remove. They that boast that no info or Intel they cannot gather is now becoming a laughingstock of many top organizations. No matter how much they tried to investigate they always come up with nothing, and they too come to the same conjectures that unless they attack the HQ of Shadow Moon in full force they won't be able to find anything new. The people he replaced become so frustrated they decided to go check the Shadow Moon HQ themselves to find new Intel... They never returned.

Gregory is a veteran member of The Speaker, he has successfully investigated and uncovered many top-secret from top organization in the world, and now his next assignment is Shadow Moon, it's been a month since Gregory arrive in Central City along with his trusted men they scour for Intel about shadow moon but so far they didn't find anything.

This Shadow Moon is quite interesting I've never seen such a full proof organization, very interesting, "I wonder how long they can keep it that way." Said Gregory in his mind, he has a disgusting smile plastered in his face.

Gregory enjoys the thrill of the hunt so to speak, the harder the job is the more he enjoys it, and he is a very patient man. That's what makes him very good with his job knowing how to go and how to wait are always been his biggest advantage against other head investigators and his men know this. So he was not angry or worried that they didn't find out anything about their target during the past month, in fact, it only makes him more happy and thrilled...
