Chapter 323 - Which one? (1/2)
X stretch his petite arms that hid on his huge black hoodie, after setting up his equipment. Turning his attention to the person who entered his new 'office', X smiled courtly towards Alexander Han who brought the last box of X's equipment.
”Is that all?” Alexander Han inquired after putting the sizable box on the corner. Currently, he was helping X settle on his new office on the hidden underground from where Seraphina resides for these past three months.
After Jack vaguely filled them with details of Seraphina's disappearance, Alexander Han was tasked to assist X to move his equipment from coast to coast hence, it took them hours to reach and set up X's babies.
At first, Alexander Han didn't understand why he was tasked to give X his lending hand, alas, seeing how many hacking kit X has, he finally understood -- it needed manpower. Moreover, it would be less sketchy if he used one of their company vans to transfer all these suspicious gadgets X has.
Walking to where X was busy moving his fingers like a pro, Alexander Han saw him pressed the 'enter' button which caused the monitors to display different angle of a certain town. Creasing his brows together, his attention was caught on the chaos on the monitor placed in front of them.
”Uh, so we made it in time.” X heaved a sigh of relief before his fingers began to work at a lightning speed. Alexander Han didn't disturb X from what he was doing as he didn't need to guess what he has been doing. After all, all these time whenever Seraphina or any of their comrades caused trouble -- he cleaned all evidence that could trace them.
Watching the scene on the screen, Alexander Han spotted his confidants limping their escape while using the folks near them as their cannon fodder. It was not hard to take notice of them as their skills stood out among the rest. Alas, he couldn't see Seraphina nor Leon's figure. Since he knew how evasive Leon, Alexander Han didn't bother to search for him and focused on looking for Seraphina.
Shortly after, he finally caught a petite figure with a thick clown disguise painted all over her face. It was not hard for Alex to figure out who it was with how calm Seraphina. She walked nonchalantly as if she was walking in the park with ease. Alas, that is not the case, because the ruckus was due to the Country X's blue gun commando's raid.
Yet, Alexander Han did get a little worried but when a member of the said authorized team appeared in front of Seraphina, alas, by the next second, his neck was twisted. If he didn't get a clearer view of the scene, he could never know what she had done.
'You're really out of my league, huh…' Seeing how capable Seraphina was, it only made Alex feel how unreachable she was. Indeed, working under Seraphina, Alexander realized the phrase 'so close yet so far'. Though he seemed a step closer to her, alas, no matter how he reaches out his hand to her -- she seemed much farther than he expected her to be.
”Stop sulking, I understand your feelings.” Suddenly, X commented; still not leaving his eyes on the other monitors and kept his fingers working.
”A code that you will never crack, huh?” Alexander Han mumbled with a bitter smile.

”Ohh… that makes me a little jealous,” Dragon commented, referring to the recent man she pressed her acupuncture points to make him unconscious. After a few struggles due to his broad size and the chaos, he finally caught up to her.
