The Ark of Life

Game

"Umm. I often see it because I want to know the latest information about the crisis that occurred!" obviously, there was a feeling of worry enveloping me.

"Do you know something that most people don't?" ask Devan which made me round my eyes.

He can actually read someone's mind.

"Just calm down, I won't tell anyone else about that information. So you can explain it to me now."

I thought he could guess what I was thinking, but Devan was scraping information from me by pretending to know something I was thinking.

He probably read my face through the rear-view mirror of the car and learned the meaning of that expression, then attributed it to the current crisis.

"Wait, if so, Devan. But he just wanted to know what I was worried about. Uh.. It's complicated!"

I answered Devan's words with a joke that he was almost right to read my face.

Devan then asks what I love about the earth, and what I have learned to date.

His words confused me, because he was like changing the topic of conversation with another topic.

Right now I feel like he's interrogating me for some purpose.

As much as possible I acted accordingly, and answered Devan's words carefully. The goal is not to raise suspicion.

The flashback

When I decided to return to the inn, Cristan said to me.

"Xia, there are things you should know. Actually that guy who works as a teacher is tapping you!" cristan said tell me. But I still didn't trust him at the time.

But after he showed me evidence of a small device attached to the collar of my clothes, it made me believe.

"Would this make anyone there hear what I'm talking about?" I was curious about the fast tone.

"Yups, and can also track your whereabouts from afar. But you take it easy, because I've been anticipating it."

"Anticipating...how??"

"Huh..you are like a child, making me troubled to have to explain it," said Cristan while patting his forehead.

Seeing a really serious Cristan say it made me sing my lips while turning my face to the side.

Do not forget to fold both hands in front of the chest.

"Humph."

Until at the end, when I glanced back at him, Cristan was sighing and then explained what made me curious.

"When we both enter the special area that I have fitted the protective wave of the room, the eavesdropper cannot know our exact location!"

"The location sent there is just another location, but it's logical that the last trace of you moved," the connection made me nod with understanding what he said.

Then for the sound, amazingly there is a logical change also assisted with Ai.

Flashback off

Drrtts...

The sound of Devan's cell phone ringing straight from his pants pocket, I heard him talking to someone who told him to go there.

But when I was seen by him with a curious look at the rearview mirror, Devan said he was busy driving. Focus on the streets.

Which in the end the connection ended.

"Hum. I know that conversation is only for adults, but that's not how he plays secrets. Then I'm the same, humph!"

"Ah... are you angry with me Xia, your face is pouting so?"

"No, that's not it..."

"Haish, how about we play some games in that big mall?!"

"Haaa are you serious?!"

"Yes, I'm serious. As long as you forgive me. Maybe I did something unconsciously wrong."

"Yes, I'm sorry."

•••

It's just that I'm still thinking that he's been hearing my crazy mutterings.

Honestly, I once talked to a doll in my room, and assumed it was Devan.

Even I once played weddings with myself who became Devan's bride. And many more.

I hope the wiretapping wasn't done for a long time.

•••

Inside the mall is quite large, visitors look not too crowded, not even much like me that I think.

From afar I saw shelves of empty product shelves, maybe product sales were on the rise because of the crisis that he said endangers daily life today.

But it is still not in the dangerous phase once, and I hope that the problem can be resolved after the supreme leader is found.

And there is a solution to all the problems that are happening right now.

After some time, I was satisfied to play games on the floor containing exciting game games. Capitalize money exchanged into coins I can play as much as possible.

At first Devan intended to give me a lot of coins so that I could play as much as possible.

But I refuse because the purchase of coins in large quantities is too waste of money.

In the end Devan justified my refusal. He gave me ten coins.

At that time I played a ticket prize game that can be exchanged for interesting prizes.

I put the coin in and then I pushed the green button. The ball came out from the top of the container covered with plastic glass, while underneath there were several holes with rotating places, as well as writing points that I could find from the incoming ball.

Which will be converted into tickets.

I got Thirty points from one ball that came in, and around my feet I saw a ticket coming out of this game machine.

"Yeeee!!!" I shouted because I was happy. And very enthusiastic in playing. Then pull out the ticket that has stopped out.

"Huh, your luck is still small, the highest point there is up to two hundred and fifty, look!" reply Devan who seems to be teasing me.

"If that's what you play next, I want to see how much luck you have in this game." I said a little annoyed with him, and intended to invite him to play. I pushed him to be right in front of the game engine.

I remember Devan saying he was just going to see me, because he wasn't interested in playing. Whereas before he invited me with the word "we" which means playing together.

"OKAY. Let me try."

And yes...

"What is this. This machine has a problem!"

Devan got ten points, the smallest point among the others.

He looked annoyed with his bully teeth.

"Heem!"

"Teehee. You're worse than me..."

"Maybe it was just a mistake, I just thought it was an experiment. All right, I'll try again!"

In the second experiment Devan found twenty points, he really had a bad luck today. I feel so kasian, but on the one hand I feel satisfied.

"We'll just play another game."

"Hehe.."

Before we changed games I played one more time, and I was lucky to get eighty points. Pretty much a point.

This makes Devan pretend to be busy with his phone. He doesn't want to see my luck.

From the game I got 110 points plus Devan points to 140 and I exchanged it with light snacks and some cute accessories.

The next game we want to play. I don't know why Devan will take his time to play now.
