Theft of the Future
Chapter 27
After a slumbering, delicious, and also comfortable – when compared to all the madness that Lep has experienced the last two weeks in the forest. The pace could finally settle for a refreshing break session.
Even the night passed by, immediately greeted again by the sun that had opened a new day.
After making his bed, eating breakfast, and finishing other matters. The pace walked out back to the main room at the end of the other hallway to meet Parker and the others.
Kuurprp.
And the voice that greeted him was none other than the snoring on the sofa that sounded very pleasant. It was Audy, who was pampering herself well by basking in the sunlight coming from the window, also by the elusan Delphia. While watching television with the programs of the show that Delphia kept replacing, they enjoyed the morning leisurely.
“Where's Parker?” The pace of breaking the silence.
But, there was no reply either Audy or Delphia. They were still busy with their affairs, to sunbathe and relax themselves in this quiet morning. Because there were no more people to talk to, Laju also planned to approach the two curious about what they were working on.
As it turns out, Audy doesn't just sleep snoring. He was sleeping on his back in an awkward position, with an open stomach being caressed by Delphia. Although the girl was focusing on watching the news, but her hand could still provide a sigh of astonishment for Audy.
“Ng!?” Delphia surprise.
Since when has Laju been behind them?
Audy who was also shocked because her elusan stopped was aghast. What is it that makes the morning stupor just crumble?
“Oh, boy. Already awake apparently?” Audy asked as she stretched her body.
“Where else?” The pace back asked.
Audy just stretched her hands and feet. Only after, he gave a gesture answer to see television, which turned out to be showing the latest news about the riots and riots that occurred in the city.
“Parker and others are taking care of those people.”
“Man? Didn't I beat them yesterday?”
“Nothing to do. Sooner or later the rebellion will happen. Your task yesterday was to defeat only one of their many defenses,” replied Audy while standing upright. “Forget it. You guys ready yet? Let's go to the doctor Parker said yesterday,” take Audy while cleaning the goods.
“Oh yes. Why do we go to the doctor, anyway? Delphia's wounds have started to dry, right?” Curiousness.
Without turning off the television, they descended nimbly downstairs, talked to the officers standing guard at the reception desk, and went out of the noisy crowd.
“To put it simply, you will carry out an examination to check your body, organs, and also your abilities,” Audy explained while crossing the road. “Your task yesterday that finished with just two weeks is a test that Parker gave. If you are just a human boy, pure human, even though you can succeed, it should take months.”
While walking on the city road, passing through many people passing by, Audy still explained without being seen to reduce his speed.
“THIS LANGUISHING LIFE IS NOT DESTINY!! BUT RATHER THE RESULT OF INTERFERENCE FROM THE RULERS, ESPECIALLY THOSE MONSTERS AT WILL!!!”
Although they had stayed away from the crowd at one point near Parker's office, voices of struggle and demonstrations could still be heard at another.
The pace and Delphia who were curious about the cries of the crowd distracted her and made their movements slow down. Audy, who realized the two had stopped and no longer followed him, decided to pick up those who seemed interested in the topic.
“Are you guys seeing something like this for the first time?”
The pace and Delphia who were watching the demonstrators were distracted by Aandy's question with her expression.
“Come quickly!” Audy gave a gesture to go back to following her.
“So, they are scattered all over the city? Is there no police on duty to secure them?”
“But what exactly are they wrong? Why should I beat them? It was like silencing their right to live and speak.”
“Aren't you a victim in a train accident yesterday? When a human can arbitrarily change his body and all sorts?”
“Eh? Yes I was there?”
“Just imagine such humans now rioting, destroying buildings and facilities, as well as riots throughout the city.”
“...” Rate and Delphia just silently responded to Audy's statement.
The cat girl in front looked at them while furrowing her brows. Is the world too cruel for them? But, Audy still could not do anything to help the unrest of these two boys. They have to learn to be adults.
The pace and Delphia could not forever turn a blind eye to the real problems before them. The choice they can choose is just face it, or run away from the problem.
Running is certainly not a solution.
If we are forever running away not wanting to interfere in these affairs and matters, when will the matter be resolved? After all, even if we run, it does not mean that the problem can be solved by itself, right?
“No need for you to think too heavy. Leave the business to Parker. He has many connections, especially in the police department. He is ready to take responsibility for what you do. Just follow his orders. Because, I am sure that his decision has become the best.” Audrey tried to entertain.
“We have arrived,” and after Audy kicked his way in a building that neither Laju nor Delphia have seen before.
Aye? It's terminal?
A place where many vehicles pass by, quietly waiting for passengers, or ready to walk in the direction and destination. Police said yesterday that there were no stations or other transportation systems in the city.
“What is this?” The question without conscious.
“We will ride this car to go to the doctor Parker mentioned of course,” Audy replied while taking care of administrative affairs in a booth.
“But instead of–”
Before Laju can ask about many things that confuse him, there was already a sedan car without wheels that whizzed in front of him.
With a touch that Audy presses on the car door, the car opens automatically welcoming them.
“Come in.”
With amazement, amazement, and also his shock. The pace and Delphia slowly approached and entered the sedan.
Actually, cars like this are found in many places of origin, in the human world, and on the streets of cities that pass by. However, seeing it in person did give a different impression to these two boys.
Especially, by the design of a modern car with shiny metal materials, fluorescent lights in some places, the, also by the inside of the car there are seats for four passengers facing each other as found in the ring, with a floating ball separating them.
After the three entered, it turned out that the floating ball was a navigation tool. The ball shows a hologram displaying a map, followed by the sound of a robot welcoming them.
“Welcome to the transportation center. Please select your destination location.”
Audy fiddled and twisted the hologram. Until in the end he gave a pin somewhere that is not known, which aarunsya became the location of their destination.
“We're going north,” Audy continued on the ball which then disappeared.
