- We will have to talk few things through after you finish your food - said Hatta. - Ok?
- Yeah. I thought you are gonna say that.
- Well, the matter is serious. You could potentially rail up a whole race against us. I need to know what happened there, and what I should as their answer - he looked at Ki'rai. - I hope you can answer those questions for me.
- I can - sie said confidently.
- First, we will need to get rid of the wiretapping in my office. Can you help with that?
- I can - she nodded. - I know where to look for one, but there might be more.
- Will you be able to find them?
- I've gone through the same training as others from unit C, so I should be able to find them.
I didn't join their conversation, and just remained listening, but her words made me a bit worried.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt- Hey. You still here? - I said in my head.
- Yes - reply came immediately. - Because of you I now have to observe Xuvi very carefully, so I'll be around for a while.
- Can you help us with finding the wiretapping in Hatta's office? I don't want Xuvi to hear our conversation.
- You are asking for more, and more... I'll help you.
- Thanks.
- You humans are very problematic creatures. I knew wit from the start, but I didn't suspect to get this much involved from the start. I hope it will be worth it in the end.
I didn't say anything to that and focused as hard as I could, to suppress my thoughts. Although I really wanted to say a few things to that asshole, right then we needed him as a friend.
We made it to the cafeteria, and Hatta immediately started his little speech. Everybody's eyes landed on Ki'rai. She became a bit shy and came closer to hold my hand. I led her to the counter, where we received our food, and then sat behind the table to eat.
The crowd that assembled around Wuxia's leader couldn't take their eyes from my little lizard. Whey kept whispering. Even the few individuals who remained on the benches, eating, had their eyes focused more on her than the food.
This pressure was very uncomfortable for her, so we ate quickly, and left to finally talk in Hatta's office. As soon as we entered she picked up few small devices hidden in a bunch of places.
I pretended to also look around, waiting for The Great One's assistance.
- Look under the couch, and then under your friend's chair - I heard in my head. - That will be all.
- Thank you.
He ignored my reply, and I searched both places, doing my best to make it look like a got lucky. I even activated 'Eyes of the Void' to have an excuse, although the skill was really useful for looking for such devices.
We gathered them, and I shadow walked to drop those next to the hidden elevator, leading to Xuvi base.
- Is that all? - asked Hatta, looking at Ki'rai, then at me.
- Yes - she confirmed.
I nodded to that.
- Ok. What the hell happened then? Let's start with your story, Ki'rai, and then I want to listen to what you have to say about this, Peter.
We each told him our stories. He listened carefully to everything, and then he went to sit behind his desk, pulled out a few pieces of paper, and something to write.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm- I need you to tell me everything you know about the weapons, soldiers, vehicles, or other technology we should know about.
I stepped in for a moment to tell him what I knew about the guns, and the vehicles they used in a wight with me.
After that, we touched on the communication, and we found out that every single scout is wiretapped. Right then she wasn't, as most of her equipment was left in the base, even the gifted knife. She became sad when she realized that.
- I'll get you a new one - I promised her, which cheered her up a bit.
- Ok... I think that will be all. I need to go through all of it with Amit. I want you to go and bring everything you placed around the city. Transmitters, amplifiers, wiretapping devices, or anything else you know about. We need Jayadeva to look through that stuff.
- I'll go with her.
Hatta noded, and we left him. We strolled around the city for a while picking up stuff. There was plenty of technology hidden everywhere, mainly in strategic places like Velvet Lotus. Aisha wasn't happy when she found out how much of that stuff actually was hidden in the corners of her club. On the other hand, she was very happy to finally didn't have to hide Ki'rai. Other girls also liked her very much. Even Zoë.
We brought everything we could find to Jayadeva. He was a bit surprised about my little lizard, Rishi on the other hand was incredibly excited seeing his first alien. I placed the order for a new knife, taking on this opportunity. Ki'rai did her best to describe what she wanted.
The kid was even more excited than her to work on such an item. It was a very busy day. We finished it eating in the cafeteria, with several dozen people watching our every move. Then I brought Ki'rai to the bathhouse, the female part of it. There were few girls, who gladly took care of her, while I went to wash in the male part of the establishment.
We rejoined in my room, smiling at each other. I was really happy. I actually wasn't this happy for a long time. I was also a bit worried, what Xuvi might do now, but only a little bit, as we had The Great One on our side.
The day came to an end with 9 148 080 points remaining on my account, and ninety-one class points.
