Ahjun was laying down on his bed feeling baffled, after he and his classmates were safely released each one of them were interrogated by ZITA agents before they were escorted to their respective homes.

After that incident he and his fellow classmates that were involved in the hostage taking were considerately excused from school to cope up with the incident.

"Hey Ahjun how are you?" Naomi's voice rang as Ahjun listened to her in his phone.

"I can't sleep" Ahjun bluntly replied as he toyed with the tennis ball in his hand.

"After such an incident who can have a good sleep even though it's just been hours? Hey! Have heard the news? Those parents of students in Royal Academy are quaking nonstop" Naomi added in a irritated voice as if she was ready to wrestle anyone who doesn't have any thing to do with her.

"Well after all their children are taken as hostages even if they aren't rich they'll worry for sure" Ahjun reasoned feeling as if Naomi's disdain towards the rich people are out of the line.

"Dummy!! Have you checked the news and social media you'll know once you've seen it!" Naomi angrily ended the phone call.

"Whaa-?" Ahjun stared at his phone with a disbelief and checked the social media to confirm Naomi's words.

What the heck?

Ahjun cannot believe he was watching a woman crying with obvious crocodile tears pouring down on her face as she gave a speech to the reporters how much of a poor soul her child being held captive, there were also many trending news about parents of students from Royal Academy harassing both ZITA and police officers to take immediate actions.

There was also an image of a CEO of a prestigious company throwing money to ZITA agents while throwing a huge tantrum and being held down by agents to restrain him.

"If they are rich.....they don't have the right to treat people that harsh"

Ahjun pondered for a moment before getting up from his bed.









"Cadenza" Talon whispered taking a risk to talk to her.

The number of students in the room became fewer, the cloths that were once taken off from their eyes were once tied to their eyes again and the ropes restrained their feet and hands. Cadenza, Talon, and along with other students were forced to sit down on the ground while facing the wall.

Earlier there was a student that tried to force his way out but knock down with a single strike from the back, it shows how much strength was used as he was still confirmed as unconscious.

It has already been a day when they are still held captive and it was the first time for these pampered students to experience sleeping in the cold ground.

"They still can't rescue us" Cadenza whispered back, knowing despite the guards leaving them in the door without their supervision they are being watched in the CCTV camera.

Dammit!

Cadenza cursed in her heart, they were put in a very difficult situation. The only thing that Cadenza hoped is her brother not making any unnecessary move that will put her in a difficult situation.

If he happens to send his men in the museum it will only guarantee her safety and sure enough he is heartless towards other people and if it happens then the ZITA would had their eyes set on her, as she is the only student from Royal Academy that was able to get out safely.

If that is the case what kind of force happens to overpower both ZITA and the police other than the people from the Underworld society? It'll only expose her identity and she has to live in shadows for the rest of her life.

She will be the target of ZITA and the police, surely her parents and Nikolay won't allow such thing.

She has already tasted freedom which her mother gave her while subduing the guards that was supposed to look after her. Being locked up for so long made Cadenza crave for it more.

Cadenza have already decided to take matters in her own hands.






"Hey what are you doing here?" a ZITA agent spoke towards Ahjun as he forced his way in with two officers were helding him.

It was pouring rain and everyone was having a hard time as the strong winds were blowing off their tents and getting their devices drench with water.

Ahjun was wearing a white shirt that was already damped with rain, his long dark brown hair that almost covered his eyes was messy and wet, his eye glasses was blurry enough for him to see as droplets of water have covered him.

"I....I-I can help!!" Ahjun spoke towards the agent as he struggled to get pass the officers that were holding him and blocking his way.

The officer looked closely towards Ahjun and immediately recognizes him as one of the students that were released from earlier.

He looked very stressed as he pinched the space between his brows.

What now?

The agent thought as he stared back at Ahjun, he was expecting him to make a fuss just like other students did.

"Kid go home.....we don't have time for your shenanigans" the agent shooed Ahjun away as he motioned the officers to take him away.

"You have hard time acessing to their information right?" Ahjun spoke towards the agent intruiging his interest.

"Yeah" the agent replied bluntly as a matter of fact.

"I have information which I overheard them talking" Ahjun straigthened his body as he tried to shook off the officers that was grabbing his arms.

"Then why did you not tell us earlier?!" the agent scolded Ahjun.

He has been a lot of stress that he forgot to think whether Ahjun's claims could be true or not as he was only focused to Ahjun.

"First let me inside and I'll tell you" Ahjun responded looking very confident which makes his claims more convincing.
