Chapter 693: 12.95 Unknown Star – Modern ABO World: Second Case – Catching the rest of the Executives.

Nightshade was in disbelief. She couldn’t accept the fact that two of the executives of the Red Poppy Syndicate were undercovers from Aster and work under Agent Y.

“Y-You’re lying!!!” shouted Nightshade in denial.

She truly couldn’t accept the possibility of some of her friends betraying the syndicate like that. Unknown to her, some changes in her body are witnessed by Yun Jie. This observant partner of Agent Y.

A frown appeared on Yun Jie’s face and said, “Brother Wei, there is something weird about this lady. The way she is reacting... Is strange. Looking at her eyes it wasn’t focusing on something but more like dazed. Her reactions are also slower than normal.”

“Isn’t it the side effect of the dis-enhancer we’ve injected into her that caused it?” asked Lou Wei.

Yun Jie spoke, “No. Uncle Hei had explained the effects and use of the Heaven and Hell potions. I remembered everything about these drugs. Her current state is similar to a person’s reaction under hypnosis. I’ve watched it in a few videos before. Dazed yet listless eyes, uncontrolled spasming, slower reactions, and restless fingers. This lady... She might be under hypnotism.”

“What should we do now? Call the Captains?” asked Lou Wei.

.....

Yun Jie said, “Stop! You can’t. They are going to catch Datura right now! We can’t destroy their plans!”

“Whom should we ask then?” asked Lou Wei. “How about Lord Hei?”

Yun Jie replied, “Lord Hei and Lord God Ye went to Mount Everest to hike. They wouldn’t be back until later.”

“Whoa~ climbing the tallest mountain in the world?! They really know how to play,” said Lou Wei.

“Yesterday, I heard they went to Bermuda Triangle to fish. Nothing in this world is dangerous for them anyway,” said Yun Jie.

Suddenly a pair of footsteps can be heard coming towards this location. When Lou Wei and Yun Jie saw who it was, they were delighted. The people who arrived were Warden Lou and Yun Ming who were called back by Lord Hei and Lord God Ye.

Warden Lou said, “So, you guys are here. Ming’er and I thought no one was at home.”

“Lou-dage! Ming-ge!? You’re back!” said Lou Wei as he ran towards Warden Lou for a hug. He had always been grateful to this big brother God who allowed him and Yun Jie to get back their past memories.

Warden Lou blocked the kid and looked around so that neither Ye Yuyan nor Hei Yuhua was around. But they already knew that both Lords were awake and no longer needed a vessel to rest. Lord Hie and Lord God Ye dropped by once to visit them when they went food shopping in Japan, Korea, India, Indonesia, and Paris before. Remembering that both Lou Wei and Yun Ming were abroad as a second thought, this shameless couple visited them once asking them to go home and even asking them to take time.

After removing all traces of the Syndicate and having a few days of dates all over the world they’ve decided to go home. But as soon as they got back there were no people in Ye Yuyan’s condominium unit and had to ask to look around and found familiar auras underground. As expected they’ve found Lou Wei and Yun Jie.

Yu Ming asked, “Where are Lord Hei and Lord God Ye?”

“They went hiking on Mount Everest. Why did you return to Ming-ge?” asked Yun Jie.

Yun Ming replied, “Orders from Lord Hei. He said you guys are about to finish your business. By the way, who is that lady tied to the chair? There is something in her that isn’t supposed to be in this world.”

“Something not from this world?” repeated Yun Jie in confusion.

Lou Wei shivered and said, “What do you mean something is inside Nightshade? Is there a ghost?”

“Hm? Not a ghost but a parasite,” said Warden Lou and waved his hand towards Nightshade suddenly something like a wriggling white snake came out of Nightshade’s mouth.

“This is... a parasite. Not an ordinary one but one that gives illusions and takes control over someone’s memories. It had a hypnotism effect on the target and this can only be redeemed in the System Mall,” said Warden Lou as he crushed the wiggling white snake into nothing.

Yun Ming said, “Seeing these the executives might be under some kind of hypnotism but if the plot wasn’t wholly affected until Ye Yuyan and Hei Yuhua come back to the past that means... Some other variables caused these effects. The memories we got from you are enough proof that in your past life none of the executives were inflicted with the parasites. Hm? No... Only one might be affected by it. Yun Jie, the reason you started attacking Ye Yuyan and his people in your past life might be because of this. You are under the control of that parasite which greatly increased your hatred of Ye Yuyan when Hei Yuhua died.”

“Y-You mean I have the same thing in my past life?” asked Yun Jie in shock and fear.

Warden Lou said, “There is that possibility. But for the parasite that is supposed to be used on you to end up in this lady’s body means that... The hidden villain from your original timeline might have been transferred back here with you guys.”

“The only difference is that the hidden villain didn’t know you guys regressed with your memories and he thought of his situation as a glitch. After living in a loop he no longer has any sense of time,” said Yun Ming. “Be careful. Those who have this kind of parasite had to live with them. In short, that hidden villain is living a life with mixed reality and illusion.”

Silence descended in the room. Things have gotten better but some things about their past lives are starting to resurface. Even some secrets they didn’t expect before were now being revealed to them.

Lou Wei knitted his eyebrows and commented, “A life of mixed reality and illusions? Does that mean he is insane?”

“Possible. If this is true that means that Director Yu Xi is in danger of being by his side. We should report this to Brother as soon as we can. Someone’s life is in danger,” said Yun Jie.

Ring. Ring. Ring.

Yun Jie’s phone started ringing all of the sudden. Once he answered it, he got a report from Aster that someone had seen the figure of Inspector Yi Rouya going to Crossfield Private High School’s premises. When we tried to capture him, he suddenly grabbed a few students as hostages.

Lou Wei can see Yun Jie’s expressions turning darker as he listens to the report coming from the phone.

“I understand. Make sure to evacuate the other students and surround the building he is in. Make sure to keep the students safe. Tell him to give me time and I will let him talk to Prosecutor Ye Yuyan and Agent Y. Don’t make any mistakes and work with the police.”

Yun Jie ended the call with a heavy atmosphere. He knew what kind of exchange Inspector Yi Rouya wanted to do. He must have heard that Datura, Azalea, and Hyacinth were currently being captured. Prosecutor Ye Yuyan and Hei Yuhua might have captured them all right now especially when Bai Jin, the God of Wealth, and Shi Wuya were there to help. Their task is to capture Hyacinth and Azalea while Prosecutor Ye Yuyan and Hei Yuhua focus on capturing Datura.

Lou Wei asked, “What happened? I just heard you mentioned Inspector Yi Rouya’s name. Isn’t he supposed to be missing all this time?”

“He is back but he is crazier now than before. He even went to Crossfield Private High School just to take some hostages. I don’t know what he wanted to do but we need to stop him from killing the hostages,” said Yun Ming.

Lou Wei said, “Hostage-taking!? What the hell does he want!”

“I will call my brother. You arrange some more people and a sniper just in case,” said Yun Jie

Warden Lou said, “Go ahead. Leave this lady to us. We will look after her.”

Beside him, Yun Ming nodded his head and said, “Go saving lives is the priority.”

Lou Wei and Yun Jie agreed to this and left Nightshade in the hands of Warden Lou and Yun Ming. They left the building and headed to the High school as soon as they could.

Somewhere in the City...

Bai Jin and Shi Wuya had effortlessly captured Azalea and Hyacinth. They had surrendered the two of them to the police after they had injected a potion in them to erase their special abilities like what happened to Nightshade.

Hyacinth was shouting at Bai Jin and Shi Wuya as they were being pushed into a police car.

“Who are you?! Why did you know our identity and appearances? You guys had no information about our faces.”

Bai Jin was eating a burger on the side with Shi Wuya after capturing them.

“Of course, we originally didn’t know. But after we got Iris on our side, it is easy to know things about you guys. Don’t worry you’ll see the others in the cell. Just wait for them in the prison to have a reunion party,” said Bai Jin.

“Impossible! You are lying!! Iris would never betray us!!” shouted Hyacinth while Azalea was completely different from him, she was silent yet observant. even though she looks like he didn’t care that she was captured by the police, she was still listening to his surroundings on how and why they were captured all of the sudden. hearing what Bai Jin had said a knowing look appeared on her face.

Azalea looked like he understood some things and gave up struggling right as they were captured. She likes saving people as a doctor more than killing. She truly couldn’t understand why he had joined an evil group like the Red Poppy Syndicate. It was as if she was under some kind of illusion that she must join the syndicate. Hyacinth on the other hand was shouting curses about Iris being a traitor or something. His voice had turned hoarse as his ability was removed.

Bai Jin said, “There is no use shouting at me. Who would even though you would lose his voice when his ability was erased.”

“His awakened ability was connected to sounds. When the effect of drugs on him helped him awaken his ability after it was removed the side effects caused him to lose his voice. He can never sing anymore. By the way, can’t you see your phone flashing? I think someone is calling you?” said Shi Wuya.

Ring. Ring. Ring~

Bai Jin whose hands were full with a cup of coke and burger in his hands said, “You answer it please~ I’m eating.”

Shi Wuya took out Bai Jin’s phone from his pocket and saw it was Yun Jie who was calling. They informed them about the parasites they had found on Nightshade’s body and asked them to check Azalea and Hyacinth.

As expected, they had found the same parasites on the two and they fainted. Shi Wuya did it secretly and said that the two might have fainted as an effect of the potion that erased their special abilities. The police officers believed them and decided to ask a few medics to check on them in the prison. Azalea and Hyacinth were captured without any hardship. Bai Jin and Shi Wuya were different from Ye Yuyan and Hei Yuhua, after all, they are Gods.

What happened a few hours later after Hei Yuhua and Ye Yuyan send away the Hei Family and continue their plans? Their mission is to capture the Mad Scientist, Datura.

At the abandoned warehouse.

The secret hideout of the Red Poppy Syndicate.

Prosecutor Ye Yuyan was in the lead of the group standing beside him was his wife, Hei Yuhua.

He made a gesture with his hand to the police officer who came with them to surround the warehouse. Most police who came to them were wearing full body suits as they were informed that Datura might be a special ability user like the other people appearing in this city nowadays. With the help of the potions and experimental concoctions surrendered by the scientists from the Secret Main Laboratory, the government was now informed about the existence of special abilities and their connection to the Red Poppy Syndicate.

In the Bluetooth headset, a report was heard in Ye Yuyan and Hei Yuhua’s ears.

[Sir. All clear. We had secured the whole area. Waiting for your orders to infiltrate!]

Prosecutor Ye Yuyan responded, “Wait outside. I and Agent Y will enter first. Capture anyone who would run out of the warehouse after we entered.”

[Affirmative!]
