"I won't deny it, this is nice," Takeo whispered as he put back his snipper riffle back in its case.
"Of course! We're doing something useful for the public," Tao answered as he stepped on the accelerator.
"I called the police; they're arriving."
M-21 stared at his hand, muttering something which they heard to be "I sometimes forget how strong our previous enemies used to be."

Of course, being modified humans, they possessed strength beyond any ordinary humans's. But their experiences of fighting with those who were stronger than them, and also being trained with Frankenstein himself did improve their combat skills.

Living as an ordinary human gave the trio a sense of joy, but sometimes they would get 'bored'. Thus, Tao came up with the ideas to help use their abilities to discard of the evils that remains among the humans.

They didn't kill, they hated that. They would leak information to the police, helping them to arrest the criminals who live with the facade of an ordinary person.
This 'pass-time activity' had started a week ago, and they had no regrets. (Not like they have a reason to regret helping in removing the wicked among the commons.)

"Have you heard about the gangsters' scandal last night?" Shinwoo asked as he sauntered through the school gate.
"Yeah, I heard that the police infiltrated their base and caught them red-headed. There have been many such incidents in the past week." Yuna spoke, bowing at a teacher who walked by.

"What are you lot talking about?" Tao chimed in, placing an arm on Shinwoo and Ikhan's shoulders.
"Hyung!" Ikhan gave a wide smile at the hacker and the two approaching modufied men. "We were talking about the incident last night. It was all over the news!"

"What incident?" Takeo furrowed his brows, glancing over the kids.
Ikhan drew out his phone, opening a news article and passing the phone to the three men.
"Oh, it came on the news?" Tao asked, the question mainly directed to his two colleagues.

"My uncle said that it was no simple raid," Ikhan spoke in a hushed voice as he readjusted the position of his specs.
"He said that the police had been tipped off by someone who referred to themself as 'RK'. And they have been the ones who have been helping the police with all those cases in the past week!"

Tao glanced over to Takeo and M-21, his expressions that said I-had-forgotten-his-uncle-is-an-officer.

"This is like some kind of real life superhero!" Shinwoo excalimed, receiving nods from Ikhan, who was equally spirited.
"Imagine having those cool superheroes like in the comics being among us!"
Letting out a rather awkward chuckle, Takeo smiled at the kids. "You should get going to class now. You wouldn't want to be late, right?"
Once he succeeded in shooing them off, he turned to Tao.
"It's not a big deal!" The hacker threw his arms up in surrender, half-yelling, half-whispering. "it's not like we're on the news."

Tao changed through the TV channels, letting out a sigh at not being able to find anything to entertain him.
He pressed the remote button again, changing the kids cartoon to a news channel.
His eyes widened at the TV screen. There was a few second clip of Takeo smacking one of the guards with his snipper riffle. But Tao had made sure to get rid of the CCTV footage of the cameras that had been set around the base of criminals. Modified human or not, mistakes happen.

Luckily, the CCTV footage wasn't clear due to the midnight darkness. The only bit of Takeo that was revealed was his long hair, the colour not distinguishable in the dark. And also the gun, clearly the one used by the snipper in the room.

Slamming his finger on the remote, Tao switched the channel, hoping Frankenstein didn't notice. Why did their blond boss need to be sitting beside them now of all times?!

"Tao," Frankenstein said, eyes on the TV. He extended a hand towards Tao for the remote. The hacker, not wanting to do so, gave his hand.
The blond stared at his hand before swatting it away, "the remote."

While muttering something unintelligent, he handed the remote to Frankenstein.
Changing the channel back to that of the news, he glanced over the modified men.
"Is this why you three disappear after midnight for a week?"
The sheepish chuckle that Tao gave, and the expressions on Takeo and M-21's faces answered his question.

"I can't even say anything because you did something good," he sighed, handing the remote back to the hacker.
"Just... please, don't do anything stupid."
