Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

"Senior, why have you come? Is there anything I can assist you with?"

Yes! What could they do to help?

The Superior, as well as everyone else in the overnight security team, also wanted to know what they could do.

More than anything, their curiosity was starting to get the best of them.

You know... It's so late at night, and the park was typically a boring place that no one would randomly choose to visit now.

Forget it! Movies make it seem like murderers would go around wantonly dumping bodies in parks, but that wasn't the case.

Unless the murderer parked his vehicle outside and dragged the body into the park themselves, then forget it!

The best chance they would get is to dump the body outside the park perimeters.

Heh. There were guards doing rotational checks everywhere.

And the deeper one went into the park, the more likely it was for any intruders to meet these guards... Some on golf carts driving around, and some on foot.

Not to mention that the city had long contributed for its Park security guards to have heat and night vision goggles.

They could spot any intruders within the park, even if one were hiding behind a tree.

Granted, in the daytime, security was almost nonexistent. But at night, it was in full swing.

During the day, people came to jog, play with their pets and do countless other activities. And the presence of guards sometimes made them feel uncomfortable.

Guards would occasionally pass by, but that was it.

Again, they used to have night-dogs, but they found that they just liked barking for no reason at night, creating noise everywhere. And because of that, they stopped keeping watch dogs around the park at night.

However, even though the night guards were well equipped, maybe because no action ever happened here, they were a group that sometimes got scared easily.

.

You know... Some had been working here for 10 years or so and had never encountered any dangers.

There was indeed a time when a gang once thought of running into a park and indeed killed a few guards.

But that was years and years ago.

Again, because one of the branch police stations in the city wasn't very far from the Park, many criminals didn't think of fleeing here.

Bottom line, many guards secretly choose to work as park security men because it was relatively 'safe' and paid good money.

So wasn't that a win-win situation?

Sure. Their thoughts might be cowardly. But to many, it was better to live and grow old as a coward than to actively jump into the fire and die young as a hero.

The f***?

They hadn't even enjoyed and lived their best lives yet. So why join any risky professions?

Of course, not every guard thought like this.

But a majority standing out alongside Butler Feng and the rest were more inclined to stay away from danger.

That's why some were frightened by the first report via walkie-talkie of several vehicles showing up.

Luckily, it was all their imagination. And no mafia, gangs or murderers would be visiting them any time soon.

~Phew.

They wiped the nonexistent layer of sweat off their foreheads in relief.

False alarm. False alarm.

It looked like there were no dangers lurking around tonight.

Nonetheless, they were still curious about what could've brought the mighty Gia men to this boring park.

Eh? Were they here on a routine check or something?

.

Butler Feng looked at the superior calmly: "We are here to find someone."

The security superior felt uneasy. Could it be that a murderer was on the loose? Or could it be that one of the security personnel was a criminal in disguise?

Was that it? Did he crack the code?

Boom!

The superior felt his white blood cells increase.

That's right.

His white blood cells were growing at an alarming rate, causing butterflies to flutter in his tummy.

No... Why did he have a bad feeling about this?

With a cautious mind, he stared at Butler Feng without blinking: "Senior... Might I know who you're searching for?"

Butler Feng looked at calmly: "A girl... Our Gia, young lady."

What??!!!

The superior's pupils dilated exaggeratedly from what his ears heard.

Girl... Girl... Gia girl!

Wait! Could it be that the girl's body had been buried somewhere here?

No! The senior didn't say if the girl was dead or not. So for all they knew, she was still alive.

Unless the body was found, assume alive rather than dead!

But wait... Wasn't this the same Gia girl that the security men found after dripping wet?

Yes! Yes! He remembered because that same evening, he came back and saw the report of what happened during the day.

So what was all this about?

Could it be that after she left the Park, someone else happened to kidnap her?

So did they come here to first look for clues about her whereabouts?

Shocking. Shocking. Too shocking.

The superior felt like someone had secretly dripped a hot pot of soup on him with this matter.

For all he knew, she might've gotten kidnapped within the park and not outside.

So how could he not be in a frenzy?

Dammit! Who was it? Who dared kidnap the Gia girl?

.

The superior's face grew grim with worry and anxiety.

"Superior Nemo. You need to take us to the sight where the out Gia girl was first seen dripping wet."

"Right. Right. Right. Right...." Nemo said severally while bringing himself back to reality.

Yes. They had to hurry up and look for clues.

But before Nemo could turn around, Butler Feng stopped him: "Tell everyone to gather at that place pronto. Remember. No one should be missing!"

Eh?

Nemo blinked for a while in confusion before nodding vigorously.

Shiver. Shiver.

Why did he feel like the culprit was just beside them?

Nemo shivered subconsciously at the thought of it all. Of course, something else worried him as well.

"Senior... If we all gather around, then who will guard the Park?"

On hearing him, Butler Feng paused before suddenly smirking slyly: "Don't worry. We've already taken care of it... Look." He said while gesturing towards a strange boy stepping out from within the park."

Eh?

Nemo and everyone's eyes opened wide in shock.

When? This? Who? How did this boy get in without them knowing?"
