"The walkie-talkie can contact me anytime into this watch; I'll pick up the call." She showed him a simple, old-looking analog watch, and Mark's expression changed slightly.
He couldn't help but feel awkward.
All this time, he had been keeping an eye on her just in case she contacted some powerful Hunter or something similar. He had even kept her laptops and such in check, but he had never bothered with her analog watch.
He had been making a clown of himself by being so paranoid, and Yuri had totally outsmarted him. Her analog watch had been a smartwatch—she could have contacted Hunters at any time, but she had never done so.
Thankfully.
The Scientist smiled at his funny face. "Well, I don't blame you for being paranoid. Any other Scientist in my stead would have sure called an A-Rank Hunter to hunt you down—not that I didn't have the connections to do that. But I am a bit of an oddball."
