Max reached his high school and parked his bike behind the school. After doing that he pulled out the phone that Mirage gave him and instead of messaging her back, he directly pressed on call. He didn't have to let her dry like Helen. The time between parr house to his high school is enough to make her anxious.

*Ringgg....* *Ringgg...* *Ringgg...*

Just as Max thought, On the third ring call got picked up and the sweet happy voice of legendary assassin Mirage's fall on his ears. It's uncanny to think that a cold-blooded killer like her can have this side.

"Hey, Do you get the message? I already delivered the package to fatty."

Before Max could say anything, She jumped in and again informed him about the task he asked her to do. You don't have to hear Sherlock to deduce the intention of her action. She fetches compliments and praises from Max. 

"Yeah you did an excellent job, Thank you."

Max didn't disappoint her and said the thing she wanted to hear. This not only makes her happy but also eases her worries. 

"Humm...When did you sleep yesterday?'

She hummed in satisfaction hearing Max praised her. Then not knowing what to say she asked something casual but this also has some hidden meaning. She wanted to see if he also wasn't able to sleep last night like her but she also didn't want to directly ask him, That would make her intention naked front of him. So she asked him like this so the listener might think she wanted to ask when did he reach home last night. She hides her true intention by camouflaging it with another one.

" I wish I didn't get any sleep because of a certain someone."

How come Max didn't understand her intentions. Although she hides it very well, Max with his current IQ can deduce her real motives. So he also decided to play her game. He said these words in a very ambiguous way so that "certain someone" in Max's mouth can be misunderstood by her as herself.

"Really? Is that "Certain someone" beautiful?"

Just as Max wanted. She misunderstood and thought Max was talking about her. If she was in her right mind, she would be able to find that there is something fishy about the words spoken by him but as the universal rule dictates women in love drop their IQ taken effect.

"Of course, Do you think I will lose my sleep over someone who is not beautiful?"

Max didn't give her a straight answer. This conversation satisfies his evil side. 

"So...So do you have any plans to meet that "Someone" like dinner or something?"

Her voice trembled a little in anticipation and fear. Her voice also started to become quite low. If not for his enhance hearing he might even be able to hear what she said close to the end of her sentence. He can guess at this time her face should have turned scarlet due to shyness.

"I don't know about dinner but I do have a plan to "eat" with her."

Max is also enjoying it now. This kind of simulation might be only some very fortunate people able to experience. Max was glad he was in it. 

"Wh-When *Ahem* When are you planning on doing th...that?"

In excitement, she wasn't even able to speak properly to ask the time.

'A poor soul, if she knew who I was talking about, I wonder how she would react?'

This thought passed through in Max's mind but he quickly put that away. He didn't want to go too far.

"I wanted to do it today but unfortunately I can't, So I think I should invite her tomorrow night to the peninsula metroville hotel in a presidential suite at 8  O'Clock. What do you think?"
