Wisps of smoke emerged from the incense burner. The scent of sandalwood filled the entire Buddha Hall. The carved windows were open and a cool breeze blew in. The prayer banners hanging in the Buddha Hall shook slightly, like a red wave.
Antonio knelt on the futon and knocked on the wooden fish reverently. Suddenly, the window fan rang. The uninvited guest seemed to dislike the strong smell of sandalwood. He squatted on the side of the window and did not come in. He said, “Harold has woken up.”
“It’s much earlier than I thought.” Antonio didn’t even open his eyes as he continued to tap on the wooden fish. His voice was gentle as he said, “His growth is beyond my expectations, but I don’t need such a powerful child. He will only make me think that he’s very difficult to control.”
“Although you’re unwilling to admit it, you’ve already lost control of him for a long time.” The man wearing a black hood and a mask put his wrist on his knees, his slender fingers naturally hanging down. Even though his hands looked beautiful, they could easily break an adult’s neck. “You have been eating vegetarian and studying Buddhism these few years, and it seems that there’s already something wrong with your brain.”
Antonio didn’t mind his offense. He slowly stood up and looked at the person in front of the window. “If I remember correctly, is your code number 0734?”
He didn’t get an answer.
“Young people always look down on their elders.” Antonio picked up a pair of scissors and cut off the long wick in the red candle. He said slowly, “Since I have kept his life, it means that I am confident that I can control him. When I find him uncontrollable, I will get rid of him without you reminding me.”
With a click, the scissors were placed into the drawer. He smiled and looked at 0734. “Did you come here just to say these unpleasant words?” 0734 said, “Crystal is pregnant.”
Antonio raised his eyebrows. “Isn’t this a good thing?” he said, “Harold has reached an agreement with them. The higher-ups are still considering it. Do you want to confront Harold in Hallbury directly? They are already starting to evaluate the losses.”
“I advise you not to.” Antonio said calmly, “I don’t know how powerful he is. If he is in Country S or M, of course, you can directly confront him. Maybe someone will help you. But in Hallbury, your foundation is too weak. It’s not the right time yet.”
“But we can’t wait any longer,” said 0734. “Four months ago, the higher-ups gave the order to take Crystal back. However, Daxton took her back to City W at that time. None of the forces dared to break the balance easily, so we didn’t take action. But now that her condition has worsened, we must take her back. If anything happens halfway, we might even consider aborting the child in her belly. It’s a pity that we made this decision, but we can’t wait any longer.”
Antonio was a little surprised. “You don’t even have the time to wait for her to give birth first?”
“We had.” After thinking for a moment, 0734 said, “But someone stole the medicine.”
Antonio said almost immediately, “0172?”
“I knew it.” Antonio second smiled. “0172 your right-hand man. How could you put her back in City W just because of her lack of time and the car accident? It turns out that she still has a trump card in her hand. A18 is the real reason why she survived.”
“When did your attitude towards the test subject become so gentle?” Antonio was a little curious. “Isn’t it good to take it back with violence? 0172… or Sadie didn’t hand it over, you can just kill her.”
