S.I.A.T.T. Series Book 2: The Rugged Knight

Chapter Eighteen

So what if she can fucking sing well? Still, she didn't use her brain again before doing something stupid!

Ani Ellis sa kanyang isip habang hinihila na ang dalaga paalis sa lugar na iyon.

Pagkarating nila sa kung saan nakaparada ang kanyang motor ay agad agad niyang inilabas ang kanyang cellphone para tawagan ang isang kasamahan.

"Dude, can you do me a favor and hack the telephone and internet satellite here in my location? Block everything, so that no one can upload any videos and photos on their SNS." Dire-direcho niyang wika nang sagutin sa kabilang linya ang tawag niya.

"Why? Is there a video that you wanted to hide? Like... your sex scandal?? Damn Ryder, can't you just keep your dick in your pants rather than showing it to the world thru sex videos?" Sagot ng kaibigan sa kanya sabay halakhak ng malakas na ikinaasar naman niya.

"Shut the fuck up Hacker! There's no sex videos to begin with! Basta gawin mo na lang ang sinabi ko hindi puro kalokohan ka!" Napalakas na ang boses niya.

"Fine!" Sagot nito at ilang tipa lang sa keyboard ang narinig niya bago ito muling nagsalita. "Done. Anything else you need?"

"That's it for now. I'll call you again if I need your help again."

"Sure! Oh, by the way, with regards to the memory card you handed to sniper, I retrieved the video files and I got something. I saw someone went inside the cabin and planted the bomb under the bed. The person was wearing a cap and a black hoodie so I can't clearly see the face." Wika nito kaya't mas naging interesado siya sa pakikinig.

"How did that someone got inside the cabin?" Tanong niya.

"Thru the main door." Simpleng sagot nito. "It means that the one who planted the bomb has a duplicate key."

Bigla siyang napakuyom ng kamao.

"You better tell Einstein to investigate her manager. He was the one who offered his place. Siya lang ang nakakaalam na naroon kami at siya lang ang pupwedeng magkaroon ng duplicate key."

"Iyon din ang nasa isip ko. Pero bakit kailangan pa niyang pasabugin ang sariling lugar para lamang mapatay ang kliyente mo? Siya din ang nakikipagugnayan sa mga awtoridad para mahanap na ang may gawa ng lahat." Paliwanag naman nito.

"Maybe that was only his tactics to save his ass so we won't suspect him as the culprit. Pinapaikot lang niya tayo." Aniya.

"Maybe. But we still don't have enough evidence that can pinpoint Gordon as the primary suspect. We'll try to investigate him more and I'll let you know once we found something here."

"Thanks man!" At tinapos na niya ang tawag.

Matamang nakatitig naman sa kanya kanina pa ang dalaga na halatang pinakikinggan ang usapan nila ng kaibigan niya.

"Are you suspecting Matt? Why?" Tanong nito na halatang hindi makapaniwala na pinagdududahan niya ang manager nito. "That's impossible coz he will never do that to me. He was helping us to hide, he was helping me solve this situation I am currently in. We have plenty of unfinished works and he won't do that because he will definitely lose his career if something bad happens to me. He won't risk his job and his name by getting me killed. And for what reason huh? I can't think of one." anito sa harapan niya.

"How much do you know about your manager huh? Sometimes the people who are the closest to you are usually the ones who can betray you in the end. At first, they get your trust and then they'll stab you once you turn your back on them. People use people, and if there's no use for you anymore, they'll dispose you instantly." Pangaral niya rito habang pasakay na siya sa motor.
