Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

(°∆°)

Blink. Blink.

Everyone stared at the dashing young man as if staring at a ghost.

They had been doing their job and routine checks constantly.

And no one had reported any enemy or stranger sightings apart from Butler Feng and his entourage of vehicles.

So when did this boy infiltrate the park?

Or could he be a legendary assassin that they had fantasized about? Hey! Could it be that he dashed from tree to tree without making any sounds and penetrated the scene like some underworld legend?

Dorian, who had no idea what people thought of him, calmly walked amidst everyone's shocked gazes with his hands in his pockets.

Damn. Who is this kid?

Maybe it was their imagination, but they felt that they could see the image of some majestic beast behind the boy.

But the most shocking thing was that when the boy got close enough, he nodded at their superior before looking at Butler Feng: "Let's go."

"Yes, Grandmaster." Butler Feng replied humbly, changing from a lion to a kitten in a matter of seconds.

And this made everyone's eyeballs almost pop out from their sockets.

Now, they couldn't help giving the strange boy another look.

Grandmaster?

What was all this about?

~Bam.

After Dorian sat in his vehicle, Nemo drove his golf cart forward and led them to the site.

Of course, the message instructing everyone to gather at the site had already been passed on.

So all the staff tailed over too.

But what was it that Dorian had been doing earlier on?

Well... No doubt that before driving towards the front of the Park, Dorian had stepped out then.

That's right.

He had been placing Caging arrays/ formations around the Park Perimeters. This way, nothing went in, and nothing would go out.

.

Like so, a massive lineup of both people and vehicles steadily moved towards the scene of the crime.

And this time, everyone, including Wei Gia and Old Gia, stepped out of the vehicles.

Old Gia! Old Gia! It was actually Old Gia!

Nemo was starstruck.

You know... He was a big fan of Old Gia.

And now, seeing his legend this close to him, the superior began stuttering like a fool.

Old Gia saw the admiration in the man's eyes and chuckled. Who didn't like getting affection from fans?

"You're doing a fine job over here."

"No, Marshall Gia! It's an honour for me to work hard for the safety of our park!"

(^0^)

Nemo was so thrilled to receive an acknowledgment from Old Gia that he began rushing everyone who was still on their way.

What the hell was taking them so long?

With his walkie-talkie in place, he quickly used his mouth to shoot out words like machine guns.

And those who heard him couldn't help sweating buckets.

Dammit. What has gotten into their superior today?

Everyone picked up the pace, dashing to the scene as fast as possible, some on foot and some with the golf carts.

And soon enough, the entire gang of night guards had finally arrived at the scene.

Of course, Nemo made sure via Walkie Talkie, doing one last check.

Even the nightly janitors were asked to come as well. So no one should be anywhere else apart from here.

Nemo looked around before nodding at Butler Feng.

Good. They were all here.

With that, everyone left as a group, leaving the open Park Road and walking downwards through several foliages.

Yes. The trees and shrubs all around did give the place a nice touch.

The gang walked downwards, following the same path that the guards who found the girl had taken previously.

And finally, they arrived at an open earthy space.

The security guards looked at the scene before them, feeling a little uncomfortable.

And those who didn't even know the whole gist of the matter once again came up with their own bizarre blockbuster theories.

Eh?... Could it be that the girl was re-kidnapped and drowned here?

.

-Silence-

The tension in the air caused everyone to fall into a deep catatonic silence.

No one spoke or even dared to.

The expressions on the Gia men and those on that Grandmaster and his men, only gave everyone an eerie feeling churning within their bellies.

Gorgeous... That's how they might've described the scene before them.

Hmhm.

The calming lake waters, the overly magnified moon illuminated the scene beautifully.

But now, looking at the scene, no one thought it was beautiful anymore.

With their thoughts constantly thinking around, they were more weirded out by the ace than anything else.

Dorian looked at his men and gestured them forward: "Open all 3 boxes."

"Yes, Grandmaster." The trio replied firmly.

And instantly, everyone stretched their necks like cranes in hopes of getting a glimpse of the contents within the boxes.

Their curiosity was at its pique, with several pushing one another to get front-row seats to the show.

It was just that now, they wanted front row seats. But what about later on?

Heh. The group of security guards, as well as the Gia men, all wanted to know what was within all 3 boxes.

Of course, Raulin, Zhulyn and Butler Sheng didn't bother hiding anything, opening each box in full view of the audience's eyes.

Oh, Goodie! What's in it? What's in it?

It's a... It's a ... It's a... Hm?

????

Everyone looked at the contents within the boxes and felt very confused and dazzled.

Excuse me... But what do you all want to do with these things?

The security men were expecting some heavy James Bond weapon of some sort.

And the Gia men were expecting something more magical looking.

So to see candles, see-through tubes of salt, wooden sticks with carvings on it, a few strange gold coins, 3 round glass vials of what looked like water, and 2 books there... only made them feel that the scene was too weird for words alone.

Nonetheless, the Gia men did trust the Grandmaster.

So their doubt vanished in the blink of an eye. And now, they looked at the items as if looking at Holy objects.

Dorian took 2 finely carved wooden sticks and calmly turned around to face the enchanting lake.

Alright. Time to find the girl!
