Mika looked outside of his window to see servants and guards running around in fright. "What happened Su-chan?"
"Your majesty, someone attacked us again and this time on the food warehouse of the west side of capital." Su Mei reported.
"Hmmm." Mika hummed and thought 'Last week it was on weapon warehouse of east side and now this food warehouse. Two attacks on two weeks and no clue was found. I think I should just go and tell them about my theory, what if what I think turned out to be right, it would be helped and if not then I can be satisfied that I have at least tried rather then being quite. And if Long Xin gets angry on me then be it. Afert all it's my fault cause I hijacked his mother's body and come in front of him everyday when he knows I am just a parasite.' Mika suddenly got up giving Su Mei a heart attack and run out of the room. "Your majesty, where are you going?" Su Mei called out to Mika but only got "Stay here." in return.
"Your majesty, please don't go outside. His majesty has forbidden you to step out. It's not safe for you." Su Mei tried to stop Mika but him being him, ran out of there at the speed that can even surprise Usain Bolt.

The Crown Prince Manner
"I totally agree with you but we can't go on only suspecting besides we still haven't found who was behind the attack on weapon warehouse of east side and now one more attack. Since when did our security became this loose." Long Xu furiously banged his hand on the table.
"Your majesty, our security isn't loose. Our soldiers and guards are working earnestly, it is even tighter after Yu Wen Shin went missing." Xichan spoke on behalf of the soldiers on duty.
"Then how do you explain these attacks." Long Xu confronted Xichan. "Either our security have leapholes or some insiders are responsible for this." Long Xu faced everyone in the room.
"I have a suggestion." Han Zhi voiced out. "What if the said insiders in Yu Wen Shin." Everyone looked at him. "I mean it could be him, since he was prime minister who knows everything about the empire and right now is missing."
"The fact is acceptable but that doesn't mean we can't suspect anyone from inside the palace or officials. We have to investigate everyone...." Long Xu was cut off in the middle of his sentance as something fell behind them. They reacted as fast as light, their hand was on the hilt of their sword, face had serious expression and were surrounded with dangerous aura, they turned fast to catch the intruders but stopped before they took a single step.
In front of them was a woman, who fell along with the empty bookcase, was wearing clothes with no embroidery and wasn't wearing any jewelery and her hairs were messy and weren't tied, as always.
"What the hell are you doing here?" Long Xin asked in serious tone as he glared at Mika.
Mika hurridly stood up, he put the book self at it's original position, hid behind it as he was doing before it fell and his face was peeping out from behind it. "Oh, don't mind me, I am just a decoration item, okay? Now you guys can continue, I won't bother you, okay, go on." Mika resured them, gesturing with his hand for them to continue.Later didn't as he expected but were staring at him, eyes wide and weren't going back on their work. "What's wrong? Why aren't you guys resuming with your work?" Mika asked as he titled his headslightly and his big shinny eyes were screaming curiosity and innocence. 'So cute' everyone thought.
"Ha-ha-ha." Han Zhi was the first one to revive from their shocked state. "It's been so long since I laughed like that. You seriously are best for ease one's mind." Han Zhi said smiling but when he saw Mika getting over nine cloud because of the compliment, he dragged him back to the earth by saying "But that's the only thing you are good at." on this statement Mika pouted.
"I thought you are look like of that idiot and was here to spy but you proved me wrong cause no one can think such stupid things." Long Xin got eased up and teased Mika at which Mika whinned like a child.
"Long Xin is right, it's difficult even for god to make someone as stupid as you. But whatever, you really lifted the mood, that really is same talante." Xichan also laughed.
"Stop calling me an idiot all the time, I am not stupid." Mika pouted more but was still behind the furniture.
"You can come out, there is no need for you to hide there." Long Xu looked at Mika, eyes full of affection.
"Yeah, why are you hiding there in the first place? If you were trying to imitate a spy then you can never be one, not in this life." Xichan commented.
"He's right. Besides which spy hides behind a furniture and then knocks it down by leaning too much on it and then hides again and tells them to continue. Ah! but it's alright, because of your unique nonsense no one need a proof for you to not be an imposter." Long Xin was having fun with teaing Mika, after all, it has been so long since the three of them went to meet her.
For the past few weeks they were so busy, their minds were filled with exotion and darkness as troubles were appearing one after another. So they didn't remembered their fun time anymore as they were constantly beating in seriousness. But now, as soon as their eyes lent on her who was filled with nonsense and started with weird manner of doing things, they remembered everything how fun and refreshing was it to be with her. Why did they they forget it? Why didn't they went to meet her, they wouldn't have to be so stressed now, they are really idiot. These were the thoughts that was roaming in the minds of the three.
"Why are you here, anyway?" Long Xin was feeling refresh by now.
"Yeah, how did you get here? Are the guards not doing their job properly?" Long Xu asked.
"Guards themselves guaided me here to this room." Mika answered innocently.
"His majesty meant that how did you get here from the pheonix palace." Han Zhi explained to him.
"Ah, that. You see, your majesty there are many routes that leads to the outside of pheonix palace. Through them I got here unnoticed by all guards. And don't worry those routes are safe as no one know about those dogholes beside us. If you are thinking why you didn't find them even in such a tight security then let me answer you. I, Han Zhi, Xichan and Long Xin did a great job in making and hiding them. And you know what, we made such holes all over the palace." Mika said, feeling proud on himself of the great job he has done. He also answered the questions formed in their minds. On the other hand a certain group of three was getting pale and pale after each word he uttered. At the end they had to hide their faces behind their robs to escape from all the deadly glears they were receiving from the emperor.
"Yeah, we got that how you got here but why are you here. As far as I remember you were prohibited from leaving your room." Han Zhi asked, trying to chang the topic but he knew his brother and he won't leave them without punishing for their act.
"That's a long story." Mika said as he sat on the empty chair which happened to be beside Long Xu.
At Mike's action Long Xu went over the cloud nine to see his wife sitting beside him on her own.
"Remember, the court meeting when you sentenced Yu Wen Shin to death, since then I wasn't feeling right and thought to share with you. But you guys know better then me how politics works so I set quite. Then those three stopped coming to see me and I was getting bored so I did some thinking, research and stuff. I wanted to tell you about my point of view but you all were really busy so again I couldn't tell you as to not to disturb you from your work but this past week we have been attacked twice so I thought I should talk to you guys. What it I became helpful to you and we find some clues that way. I came here right after I thought that." Mika said in breath. Long Xu handed him a glass of water to quench his throat.
"Ha Ha Ha Ha ..." Han Zhi, Xichan and Long Xin burst out laugh.
"Why are you laughing." Mika asked.
"You had a idea about this and might come in halp for us. That's the biggest joke I have heard." Xichan managed to say in between his laughs.
"You.." Mika angrily winned at them. They were about to get into a fight but the only mature person stopped them. Long Xu glared at three, stopping them, then turned to Mika "You have came all the way here to help us then please do share your views with us." Long Xu spoke with gentle voice and doting gaze to his beloved.
