"Do you think you heard something?" One guard asked the other as the two patrolled the hallway of the Wung Company's sixtieth floor. "Nothing, what's the matter." The other asked. "Just had a little chilly feel." The one shrugged. "Heard a lot of unfortunate women fell into that bastard's hand."
"Yeah." The guard nodded. "They are the rich and powerful, we had no choice. All we can do, is work our job, get paid and that's all." "Hey, do you smell smoke?" The other guard suddenly asked. "Yeah, it seems to be coming from the office…" "Boss!" The two shouted before dashing towards the office at the end of the hallway. The kick through the door that was locked from the other side. And there he was, dangled, hanged, dried, sliced, the two guard's eye open wide, one of them even puked right there. This, is the most disgusting corpse, they had ever saw, the most painful death, one could even experience.
"The CEO of Wung Company and one of the main funders of the Global Government had been found dead in his office. When found, his corpse was severely destroyed, killed in a gruesome way. According to the official investigation, the main cause of his death was aging. With other unknown causes including burning, starvation and thirst. According forensics, the precise date of death of Mr Wung is eighty years ago. The two guards who founded the entire incident had been committed to a normal hospital and was suggested for therapist treatment…"
"He deserved it." I turned the news off with my remote before proceeding to treat Kasumi's wound. The wound on her shoulder is quite deep, but some bandaging would work. But the wound on her chest, though… "You wanted me to help you with that wound?" I asked out, pointing at her chest, I am already betting one of my balls that she would slap me in the face and growl at me, but then…
"P-please." She let go of her arm covering her chest as she took off her jacket. Covering the spot with her palm, over than that, she is wide open "Treat it, g-gently." Oh great, I am losing one of my balls right now. Luckily there is a third person in the house, if not I bet this will turn from a light novel into an adult one. "You saved me." The cat girl, or whatever her code is, 0889? Yes, 0889 asked as she took off her slavery collar after disabling it with the remote, I took earlier on from porky's office.
"Now, I wanted you to tell me everything regarding the auction done by the Global Government at Headquarter E." I asked out as I keep my focus on treating her wounds. I mean this motherfucker is a scene of a lifetime, fuck the sunset of the comet, this shit is the best. "H-how did you know about the auction?" She asked, shocked. "I opened the briefcase the moment I saw it." I answered. "Inside there were some documents regarding the auction and deals. But these are not enough for me, I need more of them. Yet it is more than enough for them to take some action, all we needed is for an unlucky fella to fall into it." I dabbed Kasumi's wound softly, the white fluffy cotton was instantly dyed red as she let out a moan. Shit, something is perking down there…
"The Auction is actually held only at Headquarter E." 0889 said. "We are orphans, or kids who parents couldn't afford to raise. So, we were being sold to them, as test subject. They inserted those Oslum metal into our mind and undergo a lot of changes to our body. Some died during the process, only half remain. Then, we are trained, in other words, tortured to mould into a killing machine. We undergo assassination, just to clear the people in their way. And when we reached a certain age, we would be sold during this event towards the big shots. As their own personal assassin, or slave. We had no choice; the slavery collar was installed us the moment we are sent into the headquarter. With one press of a button, our life ended, I am really sorry for all of that…"
"No need to apologize for me." I stood up, finish tending Kasumi's wound and headed towards the closet. "You, what is your name again? You had a family before, right?" I asked while opening the closet, I think I got an old tux set, in it, somewhere. "My name…" She hesitated for a while before speaking, it's been so long, almost no one had asked about this before. Her true identity, seal beneath her code, 0889. "Mei, you can call me Mei." "Alright, Mei this is Kasumi. You beat the shit out of her, so take care of her will ya." I pulled out a set of tuxedo and patted the dust on it. "What are you going to do?" Kasumi asked as she dressed up.
"Well…" I began unbuttoning as I step into the bathroom with the tuxedo set on my shoulder. "I got an auction to attend."
"Yui!" The moment she exited the building I grab her by her shoulder. "Zeo!" She turn around in shock. "Why are you here?" "How is your mother." I asked her. "She is fine, just sprained her ankle. Why are you wearing a tuxedo?" She asked, staring at me bizarrely. "I wanted you to join me to an auction." I spoke. "Why? You had been acting really weird Zeo." She stopped and questioned. "Just trust me, I will answer all your questions at there." I gave her a golden ticket. "Get ready within half an hour." "Half an hour? Today?" Yui asked, panicking. "Yes! No time to waste!" Seeing her wouldn't budge, I straight up carried her in my arms and rushed towards her house, ignoring her resist.
"Put me down! Zeo!!"
