Seventy Five - Wrong

Phoenix and Bonten are both mysterious in their own ways. Phoenix is more secretive and private. They say that's the reason the greatest criminal organization—Bonten—hasn't been able to defeat Phoenix nor even identify them.

And yet, no matter how much I think about it, how come Bonten was able to get ahold of the Phoenix Crown? And it took Phoenix a long time to retrieve back their own leader? Am I just overthinking again?

"What's the matter?" Asked Mizen when he found me being carried by Nozomi. "Is she sick?"

I pretended to be asleep so I rested my head on Nozomi's chest as he carried me. It's weird, being treated like this after going through all those traumatic events when I was with Bonten.

"She's just exhausted," Nozomi answered, and I thank him for not telling Mizen that I cried. "Should I put the boss in her room?"

"No."

Eh?

"I'll take care of her."

Eh?!

"Oh... alright, commander."

I heard Nozomi snorted when I still didn't let go as he was trying to hand me over to Mizen.

"Chief, you'll be fine," he whispered. "Commander's not the traitor here. He can never hurt you."

My eyes were shut yet that made my mind wide awake.

Traitor. So there really is one?

"You checked?" Mizen asked Nozomi. He's already carrying me.

"Yes. No one followed."

"Triple check it. Throw away those vehicles. And don't forget to erase all evidences."

"Yes, commander."

T-throw away the vehicles?! What kind of crazy rich asian is this?!

"Y'all can take off the mask. I'll tell the executives about the situation."

"The chief really has—"

"You better keep everyone's mouths shut 'bout the Phoenix Crown's issue."

"And the president?"

Mizen tsk-ed. "I'll deal with her later."

"Got it."

"Alright. You may rest then after you finish. I thank you for today, captain."

"For the queen... commander."
