The Photon Hundred Percent
1.Monochrome
Just a prologue.
The human population continues to grow, no doubt, the need for energy as a support for life is certainly also increasing. Worse, almost 70% of the world's energy needs are sourced from the use of fossil energy, even though its availability on earth is very limited, of course one day will run out.
As the main driver of the transportation wheel, the dependence on fossil energy is already at a concerning level. This is the reason that then inspired a group of wealthy businessmen to agree to fund a research project, they worked with a group of genius scientists, to find alternative solutions for future transportation. The idea is simple, if humans can travel quickly from one place to another, of course mobilization becomes easier.
What are they researching? A pure particle of light called Photon, a unique particle that has no mass, which is why Photons are the only particles in the universe capable of moving at the speed of light, that's what they're trying to find, a formula that makes human cells work like photon particles. But ....
In practice it does not happen as beautifully as imagined, there are many things that must be sacrificed, it can be said this research is the most heinous and evil research in human history, that is why its existence is very secret. How not, hundreds of babies were kidnapped, and died in vain as guinea pigs.
The scientists were desperate, wanting to quit, but their donors refused, and asked that the study continue, already a lot of funds spent on this ambition, inevitably have to produce results.
Although kept secret, the world began to suspect, International Intelligence managed to track down a suspicious activity in the Arctic ring zone, so special forces were sent to storm their research laboratory there, on that bloody night, desperate scientists decide to end their own lives by blowing up the entire place, and eliminating all evidence of their research.
Unfortunately, even though the data about the scientists involved was successfully revealed, but about who the billionaires who funded the black research, to this day is still a mystery, or maybe the Intelligence actually knows their identity, just because these people are very influential in the world, the truth was deliberately hidden, and buried deep, forgotten by time.

25 Years later.
In the past month, there have been many murders of members of the world's billionaires' families, at least ten murders have occurred that hit four different families of billionaires, the event occurred almost in a row, it happened, interstate police suspect that this incident may be related, allegedly committed by the same perpetrator, whether it is a lone perpetrator or it could be an organization, he said, but there is not enough evidence for the police to determine who or what the motive for this murder was, just the assumption that, perhaps these events are related to unhealthy business competition between them.
Now, the terror is on the Mr. family. Nolan Alessander, a well-respected billionaire who has a big name, especially in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries, through a mysterious letter he received, the sender of the letter threatened to kill his only daughter, Dina.
Anticipating this, Nolan tightened the security on his daughter, paying some professional bodyguards to escort her daughter, but apparently that did not necessarily stop the perpetrator's intentions. That night, after attending a party at her friend's house, when on the way home, the car that brought Dina was brutally attacked, four of Dina's bodyguards were killed, miraculously somehow apparently the girl survived, police found him asleep in his car, without any injuries.
After that incident, Nolan never again allowed her daughter out of the house, or rather Dina was locked in her room, not only that, housekeepers are now employed five times more than usual days, they are always on standby 24 hours, of course there will be no criminals who can penetrate the house easily, he said, arrive on that day ....
***
Exactly a week since the attempted murder of Nolan's daughter.
April 5th, 2017.
The night almost touched at twelve. At that time, Mr. Nolan was still sitting on the big sofa in his study, occasionally licking his fingertips as he unfolded strands by strands of his reading books, these days he has lost his spirit, he said, he was more locked up in his mansion, limiting all his movement space, even all his business activities had been left to his confidants.
Meanwhile, for the sake of killing time, he likes to read many books there, indeed in addition to being a work room, the place can also be referred to as his personal library.
A middle-aged man entered. Nolan was indifferent as if unperturbed, it was Ramon his loyal servant.
"Master! Sorry interrupting!"
"What's wrong?" sniffing Nolan lazy.
"In front there's a man who wants to see you."
Nolan closed his book, his body erect from the backrest of his couch, while his eyeballs were enlarged, astonished.
"Well! At midnight like this?" yells.
"The guards have examined him, it is certain that he did not carry any dangerous weapons," Ramon continued, Nolan weighed in for a moment.
"Yes told him to come in, but I asked him to stay under guard" Nolan said.
"Okay sir!" ramon exclaimed, then bowed respectfully before turning back, but he was aghast, apparently the man they were talking about was already standing at the door, the servant was lined up a few steps back.
Nolan who witnessed that was shocked and jumped from his sofa.
"Sorry to disturb your rest" he said coldly, as he stood before Nolan, whose face suddenly turned pale.
"W-how did you get in here?" Nolan stammered, inexhaustible, because the mason was guarded by dozens of trained and fully armed people, they certainly would not let anyone enter at will.
"The care in this house is very poor" he said with a faint smile.
"you mean? Don't you ...."
"ah! No need to panic sir, they're fine. Well, at most it's just fainting" the man explained casually.
Nolan suddenly drowned, and sat back on his couch.
"So that's it? Maybe the time has come, I know sooner or later one day you will come" he said, and looked back at the stranger who stood straight before him, long enough they looked at him, the man did not agree nor did he deny.
Nolan could feel a strong sense of intimidation from the cold figure standing firmly before him. Long Nolan fell silent, millions of memories flashed in his mind, then heaved a heavy sigh, he seemed to have resigned. This fellow was able to tear down dozens of his house guards easily, then what could be expected of his frail body? He knew there was nothing else he could do at that time.
"Before you kill me, I have one last wish."
The stranger was silent, but he listened seriously.
"Please! I beg you, let my daughter live, all the mistakes of this family in the past, let me bear them all, " said Nolan in a compassionate tone. Silent, the foreign man was still silent, but he suddenly commented a strange smile on his face.
"Yes! Sure thing!" said the foreign man broke the silence, then reached quickly behind his suit. Nolan was suddenly cold and stiff, already imagined by him the man would reach for a gun and blow his head off, but instead, it was apparently a brown envelope of mail thrust at him.
"What's this?" Nolan asked astonishedly, but the stranger did not answer.
Nolan opened it, then read it carefully. Ah this! Just a job application! He said in his heart.
The letter is too simple, there are no other complementary data attachments, the effect is like made carelessly, with handwriting that is not too neat but can still be read, he said, there was nothing special except the name of the suitor and an organizational seal that strengthened him, only two things that made Nolan can smile a little, this was really unexpected.
"You don't have to bother thinking about my salary, should I be accepted for this job."
"Haha!" Nolan said, "you're weird, how can I entrust the safety of my daughter to a stranger, who came in at midnight, trespassing after just beating up my guards outside."
"Yes! That'sthat's true! In the present situation, you should not easily trust others," the man said with a smile, he slightly glanced at Ramon the servant who was apparently still standing amazed at the door.
"Well, before I go, let me say something sir!"
Nolan stared hard. Waiting.
"Bringing your daughter in her room is not a smart way to protect her safety. Bye bye!" close the man with a fleeting smile that looks creepy. Nolan jolted from his couch.
"Hey! Whatchu mean?" nolan shouted, but the stranger did not care and the cold passed, leaving them. Nolan desperately tried to chase after him.
"Why are you quiet?" while yelling at Ramon who seemed to have just realized, but they could only look at each other, when they looked out of the door of the reading room, they no longer found anything, the foreign man vanished like a ghost.
"Check Dina's room!" nolan cried out in panic, not wanting to bother about the disappearance of the mysterious person.
They rushed upstairs, the door was still tightly shut, but when they checked in, it was just an empty room, Dina was not there, Nolan was getting messed up, while Ramon was, his face is hard to explain.
"Hurry up and call the police!"
Then after that, they raced with time looking everywhere in the house, but found nothing, except dozens of bodies of guards that had been scattered throughout the house. Nolan did not care, all that occurred to his head was the fate of his daughter, in the middle of the eternal, from a distance saw two units of police cars that then entered through the main gate, and then came through the main gate, the gate had been open since the arrival of the stranger.
When the police car stopped in front of him, an officer came down to Nolan, the policeman saluted and saluted, Nolan had not had time to ask or explain anything, because from the back door of the car, he said, he saw that another officer was struggling, bringing down a beautiful young woman, a woman whom Nolan knew very well, she was staggering under the influence of alcohol, she was heavily drunk, that woman was Dina, his favorite daughter.
