C15 Bab 15

He fabricated the fingerprint and let his gadget scan the fingerprint. My eyes widened when his profile appeared on the monitor. He scanned the other fingerprints and I saw my profile there too. That's right because I also touched the envelope earlier when I opened it.

I saw two profiles on Saint's monitor. The first one is named Joaquin De Liano, while the other is Erick Chavez. Why two? And I'm not convinced that one of them is my brother because none of them even got Mommy's or Daddy's genes.

"That's not my brother." I immediately said.

"Of course, it's not." I frowned at Saint's words.

"What do you mean?" I asked confused.

"I'm sure this sibling of yours didn't write the letter. I'm sure he was ordered to write what he was going to say because he knew we could find out his character by doing this." He explained.

"But why two? Maybe it wasn't two who put the letter inside, right? What was that? Group activity?" I joked. Saint just shrugged because of what I said.

"Be smart, Klea. One of them is a student at Akademi High, the man just handed the contents of the envelope to one of the students because they are not allowed to enter without an ID, remember?" I nodded. Saint is a freaking genius. Is it human?

"And listen, it says here he will text the location. If you receive a text, give me your phone I'll track the texter's location. And so we can find out if he is in Luzon or not." I nodded.

"Don't come to school tomorrow. I will trespass there tonight to hack the CCTV in your locker area. I will connect it to the monitor, you'll watch it." I nodded again.

"After receiving the text, and after tracking the texter's location. Throw your phone and buy a new one, they might track our location too and attack our place." I couldn't do anything but nod.

I can't help but be nervous because of what will happen. But I can't help but feel reassured too.

The highest mafia boss is here by my side protecting me, why should I be afraid?

The next day I did not go in, I followed what Saint said. He already hacked the locker room's CCTV. He didn't come in either and stayed beside me, all afternoon staring at the monitor. I even saw Allison vandalizing my locker. But I didn't pay attention to that.

Saint got a CCTV copy yesterday. A whole day copy of CCTV yesterday, but we didn't see any student pass by our locker area and drop a letter. Saint repeated the CCTV copy several times yesterday but still nothing.

He even called Pierce and I knew he would come any minute. Saint said Pierce is an expert when it comes to analyzing CCTV clips or any recorded items.

"Damn this! This is making my headache." Saint said annoyed and slammed his hand down on his table.

"I don't see anything wrong with that footage." He said irritated.

After a while, we heard a knock on the door. He immediately stood up and walked towards the door. He pressed a button and Pierce's body appeared on the small screen. He's still in uniform, so you mean he took cutting classes just for this?

Saint let Pierce enter the room. Pierce looked at me for a moment and immediately looked back at Saint. He is not wearing his eyepatch, and I can't help but keep staring at his beautiful eyes. Red and brown. They're so pretty.

Pierce sat down in front of me. Saint forwarded the footage to Pierce's laptop. And just as Saint was sitting next to me, my cell phone that had been connected to Saint's laptop rang.

I looked at my cellphone while Saint was focused on his laptop. I just received a message and I know Saint already knows that.

From: Unknown

Serenitea near Mega Mall. 1 PM sharp. If you don't have one then don't expect any answers.

I was surprised when my cell phone suddenly shut down. I looked at Saint and I could see that he was serious about what he was doing.

He took my cellphone from my hand and

broke it. Did he just break my phone with his bare hands? He removed some parts of it and drowned it in a glass of water on the table.

"I tracked the location. And this is making me crazy." Saint gritted his teeth and clenched his fist.

"Why, what's happening?" I nervously asked, is my brother so smart that he can anger Saint?

"Your sibling is hella genius, Klea. The number he used to text is fabricated, he or she fabricated your number. That's why when I tracked the location of the texter, our location came up." what the hell? how? is he or she smarter than a saint?

"Saint, I have it." We both looked at Pierce, it looks like the CCTV footage is our last hope.

We immediately stood up and approached Pierce.

"As you can see, around 2:30 PM, GYM time. No student passed by Sabrina's locker. Because all the students were in the gym..."

"But when 2:35 PM clicks, you can see a janitor who will walk in locker areas. I watched it over and over again and I saw something." He said and paused the footage, where a janitor was sweeping in front of my locker.

He zoomed in and enhanced the quality and my eyes widen. "There's a thread..." I whispered softly.

"Yeah, there is. It looks like the person who put the letter in your locker passed the letter above. You know there are big pipes above the locker area. And the person who put the letter in your locker went in there, he taped the letter at the bottom of the thread. And gently, he inserted the letter while the janitor was cleaning right in front of your locker."

"And he immediately pulled the thread with the tape to reveal that the village letter was hidden by going through your locker." I was stunned by what Pierce said.

"It looks like you are having big trouble protecting this lady, Saint. Why won't you just hand her to the organization? I saw how strong she feels around that can be her asset." Pierce said.

"No. I promised Dad, Dad promised Tito Kristopher that we will protect his daughter no matter what happens." Saint said sternly as he walked back to the front couch.

I sat on a solo couch at the end of the table.

"Yeah, but this one. This one is effin' smart Saint. Can you beat this?" Pierce's challenge.

"No one has ever escaped from my hands, Ignatius," Saint said while calming himself.

"So, are we going with Sabrina tomorrow?" Pierce asked.

"Of course. It's in Serenitea, I'll wear a bear mascot so it's not obvious." I couldn't help but laugh softly.

saint? wearing a bear mascot? Isn't that cute?

"And since I'm just a Mafia Prime, maybe I'm not well known. I'll pretend as a customer, I'll arrive there three hours earlier than the meeting time. I'll bring the others so it won't be obvious." Saint nodded at what Pierce said.

"So, The Saint is out and Hellion is in?" I was suddenly horrified by Pierce's grin while looking directly at Saint.

"Hellion is always in here, Midnight," Saint said with a darker aura.

Damn this, this is making me super nervous.
