In the evening,

So to clear his mind, he was now going toward the cafe. Also, the main thing was that after coming back from the cafe he will once again get to bring out 5 things from his inventory in his real life. Also, he cannot just always play games, he also needed to clear his mind.
Alex already tried to call Steven, but he was busy right now. So Alex was going toward the cafe alone. Sometime later, the cafe finally reached the cafe. Uncle Harry was very fortunate that Alex was present that day because he was the one who cast a barrier around his shop using his firewall.
After entering the cafe, Alex noticed that uncle Harry was making some coffee for a customer. So Alex sat down. He was waiting for uncle Harry to finish his work so that he could also give him his order. Well, while waiting for uncle Harry, he was getting bored, so he looked at the news that was showing on the TV. In the news, the reporter tells them that the Lan forest suddenly started to burn. Well, they were showing that it was due to someone setting fire in the forest or something like that. But don't know why when Alex looked at the news, he suddenly thought about the portal. This could also be the reason, but he wasn't sure about that.
After waiting some time, uncle Harry was finally done and Alex successfully gave him his order. Alex was now waiting for uncle Harry to make his coffee. At this time, Alexa was thinking about those fighters. Now he suddenly remembers that principal John previously told him even if he did not want to join the fighter class at Royal Academy, at least he could join the fighter association. But the main thing was that Alex did not want to stay in the focus of everyone. He just wanted to live his life normally. But then, before that, he needed to clear his mission.
"Your coffee is ready," Alex suddenly came out of his thoughts because uncle Harry called him. Alex so that his coffee was ready.
"Thank you, uncle," he said thanks to uncle Harry and then started to drink the coffee. Alex did not notice, but when he wasn't paying attention to his surroundings, a person was looking in his direction. The person was covering her face with a long hat and sunglasses. From the moment someone enters the coffee shop, that person just keeps looking at him. Alex was at this time busy with his thoughts and because of this, he did not notice. After sensing that Alex once again came to his senses, the person stopped looking at him. If she at this time looks at him, Alex will easily realize that someone was looking in his direction.
As usual, because there weren't that many customers, uncle Harry sometimes later came beside Alex and sat down. After that, both of them started talking about various things. Alex watches, enjoying his time while talking with uncle Harry. Uncle Harry resembles his grandfather because when he was in Mount City he also talked to his grandfather when he was feeling bored. Alex really missed his grandpa and grandma.
Alex wasn't in a hurry to go back to his house, because of this, even after finishing his coffee, he was sitting there comfortably. But at this time, he already sensed that someone was looking in his direction. He already noticed that it was a girl who was looking in his direction, but why? Why was that girl looking in his direction? Well, for a moment he became curious to know, but in the next moment, he decided to ignore the girl.
He was now looking at his game inventory. Well, he was looking at all of his three characters' inventory. He was deciding what thing he should bring out in real life from the game. After going back to his house, he will bring out those things from the game inventory, and because of this, he wanted to decide.
But suddenly, out of nowhere, a girl can beside him and ask him,
"Can I sit here?"
Alex did not show any objection; he was just focused on his game. Well, but still, one thing confused him. There were many seats that were free in this cafe, so why the hell did she want to sit there? But Alex just silently looking at his mobile while suddenly the girl talked,
"Hello, my name is Samantha Helm. Nice to meet you,"
Only at this time, Alex stops looking at his mobile and looks at the girl. But instantly he became surprised because this is the same girl he noticed that was looking in his direction for some time.
"Nice to meet you. My name is Alex Kyle." Alex also told her, while smiling. Well,l even though he knew that she was spying on him, he did not show this to his face.
After that, once again everything becomes silent and Alex once again focuses on the screen.
'Unfortunately, I don't have any mind-reading skills. All I can easily get to know is her main motive.' Alex thought in his mind.
"Are you local here? Actually, this is my first time coming to Venus city, and I am not that familiar with everything in Venus city." The girl Samantha suddenly asked Alex this question.
" No, I am also pretty new here." He told her but said to her in a low time. Alex did not want uncle Harry to hear his work or he would blow up his cover.
"Haha.. it seems, we are in the same condition," Samantha said while smiling.
" Yes," Alex also told her with a smile.
" But it seems the shop uncle was really familiar with you. He will sit beside you and both of you are talking to each other like you know each other," suddenly she said.
Even after hearing this, Alex did not show any panic or any other expression. He maintained the smile and told the girl,
" Well, you are right. From the moment I came to this city, I always liked to come here. Because of this, you can say the shop uncle Harry is familiar with. Well, don't worry if you regularly come here you will get to know him pretty easily. Uncle Harry was a nice guy." Alex told her while maintaining the smile. He already knows that she was testing him. Most probably, she was trying to get information out of him. But Alex just smirked, thinking that someone wanted to bring out his information from his mouth. This was a really interesting thing for him and because of this, he kept pretending.
At this time, my uncle suddenly came toward them.
"Here you go, your order, Little Miss. Also, Alex, your coffee is also ready. Here you go." After saying that, uncle Harry put down cups on the table. I looked toward uncle Harry and saw him winked at me. Seeing his action, I just laughed. Most probably, he was thinking that I was dating my girlfriend.
"Hey, Alex, are you there?" Suddenly I came back to my senses after hearing Samantha's question.
"Well, sorry about that. Did you say anything to me?" He asked her with an apological tone.
" I am asking you, do you know where the Hill area is?" She asked him.
" Ohh… sorry about that. As I said, I am also really new to this city and I don't really know where this area is." Alex said to her with an apologetic tone. He did not show any other expression on his face, but inside he was thinking that it was this person sent by his sister or his family. Because in that Hill area was the old Alex's home. This person probably expects that hearing the Hill area Alex's expression will be changed. But thinking that, Alex once again smirked inwardly. The Hill area is the place where you will find many big families.
"Ohh… it seems, I really needed to call my relative. Actually, I have a relative in that area but I just came to the city and don't know the location. I wanted to give them a surprise and because of this, I asked you," she explained.
" Well, if you really wanted to give them a surprise, then you can also use the map. I think you will easily find the route to go to the hill area on the map," Alex said to her.
To be continued… … …
