The Wife Is A Superstar 6

Chapter 1093 - Human Killer Machines

Shadow Winds Headquarters.

"This way, Mr. Manoban." One of the patrols led Lisa inside the main building.

Lisa came to his brother-in-law's group headquarters with only two of his bodyguards. He didn't completely trust all Shadow Winds members but he trusted that they wouldn't harm him on account of his relationship with their Boss, and of course, as the husband of Boss Drakon. Only a few high-ranking members and of course the whole hacker team knew about his wife's identity as the hacker Drakon but that was enough to instill the directive to everyone that Jennie Kim was number one in their short priority list of protected persons.

The leader of ShaWn met him inside. Lisa was the most familiar with him because of Luka. They seemed to be aware of it and so assigned him to act as Lisa's guide inside.

"Mr. Manoban, we've been waiting for you," the ShaWn leader said.

"En." Lisa swept his eyes at the surroundings in a casual manner. His cold indifference made it seem like he had zero interest in Shadow Winds but that was far from the truth. In actual fact, he was extremely curious at how his brother-in-law was able to create such a highly-skilled group in a relatively short amount of time.

"Where's Geo Manoban?" he asked.

"Locked in a holding cell."

"Only him?"

"We also have his wife and daughter."

Lisa's eyes flashed with something but his expression returned to its usual cold indifference before the others could identify the emotion.

"We have already verified that Geo's daughter named Jane had frequent, direct communication with Diana Young," the ShaWn leader explained. "She's not innocent in the crimes of his father and Diana despite her young age. As for Geo's wife, she's also not innocent but she knows less than her own daughter."

Lisa nodded, not showing any emotions. "Bring me to see them."

"Please follow me."

It was obvious that the old warehouse had undergone extensive renovations. If not for Lisa's good memory, he would feel lost in the labyrinthine hallways and odd room placements in the building. He might look apathetic on the surface but he was actually creating a rough mind map of the place just in case.

Another thing that he noticed was that some of the walls seemed to be movable. In short, the layout that he was seeing right now could change if he visited again next time. He couldn't help but admire his brother-in-law for creating this kind of unique convertible layout. As a man, this was extremely fascinating to him.

"Mr. Manoban."

"Hm?"

"Is Luka grounded again? When will his punishment end? We haven't heard from the brat—I mean from him for a while now."

Lisa raised an eyebrow. It seemed ShaWn didn't know yet about what happened to his AI son. However, he had no intention of telling them the full truth. Any information regarding the power flood was too dangerous for outsiders to know.

Instead, he told the ShaWn leader, "Luka is undergoing important updates to his system. I'm also not sure when he'll be ready to return to his freelance work here. But my wife says that Luka will become several levels stronger than before after the updates."

The ShaWn leader's eyes shone with excitement. "That sounds dope! If Boss Drakon says so, then I'm sure that the little devil—I mean Luka will surely become more awesome! But uh...Mr. Manoban?"

"What is it?"

"Is it possible to, er, tone down Luka's poison tongue—I mean blunt personality...you know, just a little bit?"

Lisa's mouth twitched. Even he also wanted to know that! He sighed. "I'm afraid that only my wife can do that but she doesn't want to mess with Luka's personality because it might cause irreversible damage to his system." He paused and said with a straight face, "Luka's personality is not that bad once you get used to it. He's...straightforward. Just like my wife."

The ShaWn leader released a bitter laugh. "Yeah." Then he muttered under his breath, "But Boss Drakon doesn't try to regularly scam us out of our money in the name of compensation due to emotional distress."

Lisa didn't hear what the man was muttering but saw clearly his reaction. It wasn't only him. Even the others who weren't members of the hacker team had bitter expressions on their faces. He had to wonder how much his AI son tormented these highly-skilled and deadly people for them to have this kind of reaction whenever they were talking about Luka.

His thoughts were interrupted when everyone stopped walking. He did so as well, following their example.

"We've arrived, Mr. Manoban," the ShaWn leader announced. "My comrade who's in charge of keeping an eye on Geo and his family will take over in guiding you inside the cell. I'll wait for you here when you're done."

Lisa nodded and stepped inside. A small, thin man greeted him. Lisa was inwardly surprised at his small size. The man was even smaller than his wife. At first glance, the man looked like a young teenage boy who just started puberty. However, Lisa noticed the faint crow's feet at the corners of his eyes and his weathered, veiny hands. Lisa suspected that the man might even be older than him. He also couldn't help but detect the innate cruelty in the man's deceptively polite eyes. Fortunately, the cruelty wasn't directed at him.

As expected of the group that his brother-in-law created. Shadow Winds was filled with demons and devils. They were all monsters. Good thing that these human killer machines were on his wife's side, and in extension, his side as well.

The teenage-looking man led him inside a brightly lit, narrow corridor. He had his eyes scanned and said a code at the voice recognition system. The high-tech security lock approved everything and opened for them.

"No need for fingerprint scanning?" Lisa asked, curious. There had been some fingerprint scannings earlier.

The man grinned and spread his hands palms-up to Lisa. "No fingerprints. Burned to erase them. Safer this way. Doesn't leave any traces."

To his credit, Lisa maintained a neutral expression. "I see."
