Chapter 9 - Chapter IX: Conspiracy in the shadows

Misaki, District A, Hotel Zone, Near the border to District C.

A young woman sat watching the sky several meters high on a terrace, she was a good sight, a cup of tea was steaming, her hair was waving, she was thoughtful. She heard noises in the room, she regained consciousness.

"We're back" said two women, each sitting in a chair around the table.

"It's good to see that you're motivated" Karin noticing an open envelope, there were scattered papers barely supported by some notebooks, Tama checked the papers with a serious look.

"There is much I want to know, but this is enough to have an objective in mind, now, let's talk about the information that each one gathered, start your Karin" the young woman took the cup from her drinking.

Tama left the place looking for something in the kitchen.

"Regarding the information on the relics, I have confirmed that the Relic of the earth is known to be linked to a criminal gang and seems to be in conflict with another in the city, although I was able to get some ideas about him as they have been. clashes, I could not get the location of the bearer or find information about the missing relics, I just got the name of their organization with some of their practices, here are the details" the woman with short hair passed a notebook to her partner, the young man glanced at it.

Tama returned with two cups of coffee, she passed one to her friend who thanked her smiling, the young woman stopped reading taking a page that she had on the table and comparing it with what was written in the notebook.

"Something interesting?" Karin asked smiling, the smell of coffee and the taste in her mouth was pleasant, she would kill for a cup of coffee if she had to, nothing was better than that.

Her other friend just drank deep in thought of her, her brow furrowed in disgust from time to time.

"Nothing important, it's an idea that came to my mind when I read this part> the last confrontation of the land carrier's criminal gang was a week ago, where they were displaced to zone C after losing troops< then with what the other sheet says > some armed men from a dangerous gang have contact with the Church of the Saints, there is evidence that they worked together at some point, this happened a few days before the kidnapping< if both informations are true there is a probability that my brother's incident is connected to criminal gangs, although I have nothing to confirm it, ignore it for now" said the young woman with a serious tone, the others nodded to her words, it was the long-haired woman's turn to speak.

"Research about the political and economic situation of Misaki, a certain sector of companies are monopolizing the market, with what little we gathered from the city before arriving and what I saw here is for sure that foreign intervention of a country is being eliminated, look at this" the woman took a folded newspaper out of her back pocket passing it to the young woman.

"There you will read about the investment of Chinese and Indian companies in Misaki, in addition to the problems of workers' rights in American companies, if you think about it, India and China seem to be interested in obtaining larger branches, hiring the In addition to giving better wages, on the other hand, American companies are laying off their workers, it's the same thing that Fujima had said" commented the woman with sharp eyes, the young woman understood the seriousness of the matter.

"Misaki's businessmen are not in favor of America, that explains the little influence of the Guardians and because most of the investors are from the Republic of China and India, they try to close the circulation of receiving leaked information that America can, after all , there is the Central of the Guardians and Masters, the orchestrators of this have well controlled the media, whatever they are plotting this time must be serious if it involves such an elaborate plan" his words were not a game, if one was insightful notary certain clues.

Commercial monopoly = Avoid leaking information.

The rejection of America = more political power in the city and less control of the Guardians.

All that information felt wrong, like something terrible was about to happen.

An idea came to Sarah's head, a fear came to her body, she wanted to share it with her friends.

"The orchestrators could be starting a Dictatorship in Misaki, it is clear that their objectives are to have greater control of the city, this city is the economic center of the country, they would have gained from doing so, for now, let's focus on our mission, tomorrow when I return to I'll talk to the head of the city headquarters, maybe she will have more details about this, you keep investigating, we need to contact some of the relics, it is necessary to have a plan B in case things get worse" the young woman finished speaking with a solemn face , his speech did not discourage women, they knew how dangerous it was getting into Misaki, now that they had a few things clear, they needed to focus on their rescue mission.

"What did you find on your brother?" Tama asked, Sarah showed a sharp look lifting one of her leaves and passing it to the woman.

"From what was discovered about the kidnapping, it is known that the Church of the Saints have some illicit human trafficking deals, there is a probability that my brother was kidnapped by them, I plan to search on my own when I complete a mission tomorrow"

The air sank into a silence, each one looked at the landscape around her immersed in her thoughts.

The next day many things would change, they knew.
