Several days had passed after that incident.

Things were back to normal, whatever that is.

Jason kept searching for Dr. Watson and finally, the Japanese WS branch tipped him.

Alex was in the middle of school when suddenly, he was called to the principal’s office. He arrived at the principal’s office.

‘You wanted to see me, sir.’

‘Ah yes, it seems you have been granted leave from school, so you are free to go.’

‘Leave?’

Normally, leaves are only granted by the request of the child’s parent or guardian, and Alex knew his father was not in Japan.

Alex grabbed his stuff, and as he went out, saw Jason at the exit door.

‘How did you get me out of school, only Parents are allowed to do that.’

’You’re forgetting WS has the most influence in the world, and WS agents can do almost anything, getting someone out of school is child’s play.’

‘Since you got me out, I suppose it isn’t so we can hang out.’

‘I might have found your Dr. Watson’

‘Took you long enough.’

‘Let us go.’

Alex and Jason went to Alex’s house. There Jason started explaining things to Alex.

A small island had been bought a few months ago, and construction had been going on still.

‘So how is that linked to Dr. Watson and Jira?’

‘Although the island was bought by some billionaire who does not display any connection to Jira at the moment, the island was bought immediately after the explosion. Coincidence?’

‘In this day and age, what isn’t?’

‘Then perhaps this might change your mind.’

Jason took out his phone and showed Alex some pictures.

‘These are pictures of the construction work, what about it?’

’60 million US dollars have already been put into this project, which excludes buying the island itself. Do these pictures look like 60 million US dollars?’

Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator.

‘You have a point.’

The buildings showed in the picture were extremely simple for 60 million dollars despite being incomplete.’

‘So, where did all the money went?’

‘Of course, it went to construction, but they are not showing what they made.’

‘Which is?’

’A fully operational underground facility, the Japanese WS branch confirmed it on my request.’

‘So, we aren’t just going with hunches. When do we strike?’

‘Tonight’

As soon as dusk started to fall, Alex and Jason’s preparations were complete.

Jason was the one preparing for the mission while Alex just watched T.V and ate pizza.

‘Could you be a little more serious?’

‘What am I supposed to do?’

‘I do not know, Maybe go over the plan again, wait you did not even listen to the plan.’

‘As if things ever go according to plan, every time you tell me your detailed plan, things don’t even go 20% according to your plan’.

Alex had a point.

Jason knew Alex was right, it is, of course, normal that things don’t go 100% the way you thought they would, but WS agents are trained extreme foresight skill that things always go at least 60% just like they thought no matter the situation.

This time it was different. Jason couldn’t figure out why. Jason decided not to say anything after that.

They made their way to the island and were rowing in the island’s fjord. Alex was rowing the boat while Jason acted as the lookout and navigator.

’Why do we have to arrive by ROWING!!?’

‘This is a stealth mission. We cannot afford to make any mistakes. We have to maintain absolute silence. The motor might have caused more noise than we intended. The only reason we even are in a motorboat is that we might have to get to away in a hurry and might be too injured to row it.’

Alex and Jason had surpassed the motion sensors which surveyed the water near the island by going slowly in the rowing boat.

Meanwhile, a seagull arose from its nest and took flight.

The seagull gently flew over the water in search of something, and its eyes caught two people gently and slowing nearing the island in a small boat. Suddenly, the seagull’s eyes flashed red, and it quickly went back to its nest.

When it arrived, an antenna appeared from its head.

Alex and Jason arrived at the island’s cove when it was completely dark and tied the boat there.

They crept up the rocks onto the island. Jason was right for being cautious.

The seagull transmitted the footage to the monitors underground along with the message “Intruder Alert!!” which was viewed by a man who was overjoyed.

‘Thank Goodness you arrived or else I was starting to get tedious.’

He pressed a button to open the mike.

‘We have guests. Send him in to greet them’.

Jason and Alex carefully made their way to one of the buildings that were finished being aware of all their surroundings.

The area was empty and quiet since all the construction workers were sleeping.

Oddly enough, all of the building lights were on. They quietly infiltrated one of the buildings.

‘There seem to be no visible cameras in here.’

’What are the chances of having secret cameras?

’100%. This is Jira we are dealing with, however even if hidden cameras are monitoring us, that does not mean We are being watched. We have to get into the underground facility before WE are noticed’.

They walked in and searched for passages that might lead to the underground facility but couldn’t find any.

‘Did you find anything on your side, Jason?’

’No, perhaps this building does not lead to the underground facility, we should check others.

‘Nope, it does.’

Alex face suddenly changed, and he took a defensive position.

‘What is wrong’?

‘Somethings coming, and it’s something big.’

Finally, Jason heard the noise which Alex was hearing.
