Deva continued to pull Riki’s arm into the building. They kept walking, passing through several corridors, until Deva finally stopped.
But Riki didn’t see anything serious there. There was only Sean and another young man.
However, the young man, whom Riki didn’t recognize, looked very angry, and Sean was calming him down.
Riki could see that the young man’s palm had a wound, as if he had punched sothing.
"What happened? Please explain it to ," asked Riki.
The young man stared at Riki with a sharp gaze. Riki could really feel the anger in his eyes.
"I’ll explain—"
"No, let , explain it" said the young man Riki didn’t know in a deep voice that made them all shiver.
Sean imdiately fell silent, not daring to say anything else.
anwhile, Riki sat down in front of them. Deva was still standing, looking nervous.
"So, all this ti I’ve suspected that this agency itself wanted to harm Sean. I told Sean that I was busy, but in reality, I was just investigating what happened," said the young man.
Riki understood that the young man was Travis Averdo, whom Sean had ntioned earlier. Riki was relieved that Sean’s friend was quite perceptive and useful, unlike Deva, who was completely oblivious.
But there was no need to compare them now, even though Riki would be very annoyed if he were Sean.
"Then? Is it true that it was Deva’s fans?" asked Riki.
Deva imdiately turned to Riki, surprised, but then lowered his head.
"She is the younger sister of the owner of Golden Entertainnt. Victoria Eugine, usually called Vicky. She is a fan of Deva, and used to go to the sa school as Deva, although they were never in the sa class, because Vicky was a year below Deva. Vicky seed very normal all this ti. She was just a pretty and nice girl. We only recently found out that she was actually a fanatic fan of Deva. As you know, Sean won an award for his acting in a drama. Deva and I debuted after Sean, so it was only natural for Sean to win an award before us, right? But it turned out that Vicky couldn’t accept that. She wanted to kick Sean out, but if Golden Entertainnt did that, they would have to pay compensation to Sean. Then, Golden Entertainnt’s reputation would be ruined. I already knew that, so I t with Vicky’s brother, David Eugine, the owner of Golden Entertainnt. But he instead—"
Travis, who was angry, looked very frustrated. He couldn’t continue his sentence.
"Then, what else happened?" asked Riki, impatient to hear the whole story.
"It turned out that the CEO of the agency defended Vicky, then Travis punched him. The CEO is not a weak person, he is also strong like Travis, so they fought. When Deva and I entered the CEO’s room, they ssed the room. We had to pull Travis out of there before one of them got seriously injured," said Sean.
Riki furrowed his brow, trying to understand the situation.
"Then... did you guys get proof that this agency sent the hitman?" asked Riki.
Travis nodded, then showed so CCTV footage on his smartphone.
"I have a friend who can hack, so he got all this for ."
Riki smiled. The evidence Travis had obtained could incriminate this agency, and Riki had a strong reason to release Deva and Sean without them having to pay a penalty.
"Then why are you guys confused? Let’s just sue this agency," said Riki.
"That’s why I contacted you, because we don’t have any money, not even to hire the best lawyer," replied Deva.
Riki laughed upon hearing this, "You’re right... don’t worry, I’ll help you. I’ll call my friend; his brother is a famous lawyer," said Riki.
He hurriedly searched for soone’s contact number and called them.
"Which lawyer are you talking about?" asked Sean.
"Oh, do you know the Raynold family? Zeno Raynold is my friend," said Riki casually.
The three young n stared at Riki in disbelief.
"You even know the Raynold family, Riki?" muttered Deva.
Of course they were surprised. The Raynold family was one of the country’s conglorate families. They had businesses in all fields, all of which dominated the market. If they didn’t have businesses, they would be doctors, lawyers, or soone very accomplished in their respective fields.
This included Arvin Raynold, Zeno Raynold’s older brother. He was famous for being the best young lawyer, who always won cases. Arvin was also known for not accepting work from guilty people, which was why he always won.
Soon after, Riki finished calling his friend.
"Zeno said his brother agreed to work with us, let’s go et them. Because Zeno and his brother are in the garden."
The three of them were confused as to why people as powerful as Zeno and Arvin were in the garden, but they just kept quiet and followed Riki.
"Stop, you guys!!"
A girl’s shrill scream rang out.
"Oh, damn, it’s Vicky," Sean muttered, imdiately hiding behind Riki’s large body.
Riki turned his head and looked at the girl who had co with several thugs behind her.
And it seed that Riki was familiar with those thugs—oh! They were the hitn who had previously been chasing Sean.
"Sean, go to the corner and record everything. I have a bad feeling about this," said Riki.
Sean imdiately nodded and hid in the corner of the hallway.
"Are you the one nad Vicky?" asked Riki.
The girl, Vicky, grinned, "Yes, it’s ... why? Are you fascinated by my beauty?"
Riki was silent for a mont because he felt he recognized the girl’s face.
"You’ve gone too far, Vicky! Sean is my good friend, but why do you want to get rid of him so badly?" asked Deva.
Vicky laughed loudly, then suddenly fell silent, showing an annoyed expression.
"Sean this... Sean that... I HATE HIM! Is it because he’s more beautiful than ? Do you prefer n? All you ever talk about is Sean, Sean, and Sean! He’s just your friend! He didn’t even save your life... but you—all you can think about is Sean, right? So... because of that, it’s better if I kill him. If he’s gone, you’ll turn to , right? Right, Devano Hanzel? Hahahaha, hey, hurry up and kill Sean, the pretty one in the corner!"
Riki, Deva, and Travis, who were truly shocked and couldn’t believe what Vicky had said, were shocked again when the hired killers suddenly attacked them.
Thankfully, Deva and Travis were able to fight back, although it was mostly Riki who attacked the hired killers.
Seeing that the people she had paid were about to lose, Vicky imdiately fled the scene. She probably went to et her brother, but Riki didn’t care, he had beaten the last hitman.
Riki laughed after seeing that he had defeated all the hitn. It was very satisfying.
It was sad to rember that in the past he was a weak man who could only resign himself to being beaten.
[Leave those people and go see a lawyer, master]
[Because it will be dangerous if you stay there, Vicky is looking for a gun]
Damn it.
"Hurry up and get out of here! Leave them, we have to go to Zeno’s place, hurry!" said Riki.
Without saying much, they left the building. Sean went with Riki while Deva got into Travis’s car.
Riki drove his car quickly when he saw Vicky erge from the building.
They were startled by the sound of gunshots.
"That girl is crazy!" Sean shouted, truly terrified. It turned out that Vicky was even more terrifying than a hired killer.
"But thankfully I managed to record her just as she was about to shoot us, Riki!" Sean added, smiling widely at that mont.
"You look scary too, Sean. Don’t smile when we’re in danger like this!"
"Hahaha, I’m so stressed I just want to laugh out loud, you know! Hahaha!"
Riki snorted, he knew it was a bit silly. But, in his entire life, this was the first ti Riki had been chased by a girl with a gun in her hand.
So, it wasn’t funny at all.
[The system has determined that your third mission has been successful, as you have saved them from that crazy girl]
[You have earned a 35% stake in Hayper Entertainnt and 5 to all stats]
[You get 1 point]
Riki couldn’t feel happy even though he got a reward this ti. He was still nervous, imagining that if they had been even a little late, he might have been shot dead.
"I’m sorry for involving you, Riki... we didn’t know who else to ask for help. There were many other capable adults, but we asked you, who is younger than us," said Sean.
Riki chuckled upon hearing this, "You’re only two years older than , so the age gap isn’t that big. Besides, I wanted to help anyway, because I was going to ask Deva for help later, so it’s no problem."
"But you could have been shot along with us, Riki!"
Riki smiled, this ti his smile looked very sincere. A warm feeling began to envelop Sean when he saw that smile.
"Sean, I already told you. I’ve been in a very desperate situation before, I just want to help you guys."
Because Riki was helped by the system, and they weren’t. So, Riki felt that he really had to help them.
"Besides, I already told you, I’ll ask Deva for help later. This problem also arose because of Deva, not you. So, Deva should feel guilty, not you."
Sean sighed deeply and heavily, then he said.
"Do you know, Riki? I’ve always wanted to kill myself... I went to a high place to jump off at that ti. But it turned out Deva was there at the ti. Stupidly, I ended up saving him, giving him motivation not to kill himself. Even though... ugh, why am I telling you this?"
Riki fell silent.
It turned out Sean had indeed saved Deva. No wonder Deva favored Sean so much. But Vicky saw it in the wrong way.
