[Story] King Of Technology – S01 E1200

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 1200

Their Purpose!

~Vrrrmmmmm!

The vehicles drove off in an orderly manner, causing no suspicions at all.

But then, suddenly, Lucy who had been chatting merrily with her fans gave Jeanne and a rest a daunting task that shocked them silly.

“Princess! I’m sorry, we can’t do that!”

Lucy squinted her eyes squarely: “This isn’t a request, but an order! Pullover, park the vehicle and join the rest in the other cars. After dropping them off, I have something else l have to do alone. Remember, I still have a little time before my next appointment. So this is my free time. You all wait for me at the site of my following appointment, and I’ll be there shortly. So get out!”

“…”

The guards within Lucy’s vehicle were in a mess.

Of course, there were times that Lucy also drove her vehicle without them, wanting privacy and space too. After all, it wasn’t easy having people follow you around 24 hours every day.

The thing was that if Lucy had decided on personal space, they would still follow her at a distance she couldn’t see.

Additionally, she would’ve long told them about her privacy plans at the start of the day.

This was indeed the first time she had sprung it up all of a sudden.

And she told them to specifically wait for her at the site of her next scheduled appointment.

So they couldn’t tail her anymore… Even if they wanted to do so privately.

They started thinking… Should they secretly disobey their boss/Lucy and still stalk her from a distance to ensure her safety?

Or should they obediently follow instructions?

Sigh… Even though the first one was a blatant disregard for Lucy’s orders, at least it made them feel that she would be safe.

So without a doubt, Even though they decided to follow Lucy’s words, they still found a loophole in the matter.

Provided they didn’t use Lucy’s regular Black vehicles, she couldn’t honestly point her fingers and say they followed her, no?

Thinking like that, after Lucy speeded off alone in another direction, they hastily paused and took cabs and tried to tail her.

Luckily, they had parked close to one of the Cab parks.

So finding one wasn’t that difficult!

Some stayed in the other black vehicles and headed towards Lucy’s next appointment, while others stalked her instead.

In short, they were not comfortable leaving her alone.

But who was Lucy?

Over the years, she had always long known that during her ‘private time,’ there were still people around her.

Her privacy times turned her guards into hidden guards instead.

Of course, the only real times she had absolute privacy was in the Private sectors of the palace.

The public sector was at the forefront of the palace, while the remaining regions around the palace were the private sectors.

There, she could stroll about the massive fields, wall into any of the buildings there, visit the ponds or do her things in absolute freedom and privacy.

No one, not even her guards, would follow her or anything of that sort.

And the private sectors of the palace were huge, expanding with numerous fields, several buildings well spaced apart, even the royal guest homes, Royal training courtyards, staff buildings, and so on.

The whole place was huge, and to Lucy, it was the only time that her men didn’t follow her.

Why?

Because the entire perimeter of the remote region was already heavily guarded to prevent people from the public regions from entering the private regions.

And one shouldn’t think that the private sector was small.

From the fact that the buildings were all so well spaced out to the fact that there were numerous fields, fountains and regions as if it was a separate estate property on its own, one could see just how big it was.

She didn’t know whether they were in cabs or private vehicles, but after all her abrupt turns and moves, she felt like she should’ve lost them by now.

And in truth, she did.

Her men within the vehicles almost had a heart attack watching her flee the scene.

“Not good. It looks like the princess may have discovered our presence and had long planned to shake us off!”

“That’s true. She started driving calmly at the start but soon started making all those twists and turns. I think she wanted to draw us into a false sense of security before making her move!”

“Hmmm… I agree. Think about it. The cab driver isn’t prepared, and they might not follow such a crazy drive-off. So it’s inevitable that their process would escape our grasp. Sigh… If we had known, we would’ve asked the cab driver to let us drive instead.”

“Heh… That was the false sense of security I was talking about. The princess’ actions at the start gave off the feeling that she didn’t suspect any of us of disobeying her orders. Thus, we didn’t need to switch with the drivers and only followed behind at her steady pace. But who knew that she would be well prepared for us? Tsk! As expected of our boss/princess.

….

The guards who were within their cans and had been long cut off by the stoplight couldn’t help grumbling in English/ military language when thinking about Lucy’s move.

Looking at their suits and string bodies, the cab drivers didn’t ask too many questions and just drove wherever they pointed.

Nowadays, anyone could wear a suit and sunglasses… Even the expensive ones.

So could it be that these people were tourists who were out for sightseeing and didn’t know the particular locations they were headed to?

The drivers tried to ȧssist them, but the people said that they shouldn’t worry about it.

Well, the cab drivers would get paid either way. So they just shrugged their shudders and drove according to where these people wanted to go.

Dammit! Dammit! Dammit!

The guards felt like pumping blood when they realized that by the time the stoplight turned green again, the princess had long taken a street road out of the highway and was long gone!

As for Number 5 and the rest within Lucy’s vehicles, they couldn’t help grinning deeply once they realized that their plans were all going smoothly.

Number 5’s lips quivered as she tried to hide her provocative smile.

“Good. Good. Good. It’s best if you can do this. Trust me. It’s in your own interest that you come with us. We are just here to save you. Don’t worry. Once we finish talking, we will release the hostages as promised. We only wanted to do this to have your attention. I promise you, we mean no harm.” Number 5 said before revealing the warmest smile ever.

Too bad that even though her dyes tried to give off hope, they still had an eerie look to them.

As they say, the eyes were the window to the soul.

Lucy glanced through her mirror to look at the ladies behind before glancing at Kora, who she placed at the front passenger seat.

That’s right. Kora was here too.

Of course, Lucy didn’t want to take Kora with her, but these women insisted.

And from what they said, there were more of them who had surrounded the cafe at that time, and they also had hostages?

Lucy dared not take this lightly.

Thus, she followed their instructions to the tee as per her training protocol when met with situations like these.

If she was just alone, or if there weren’t any mentions of hostages, she would’ve long acted.

But now, she could only obediently follow in and gather up more Intel as well before deciding how to make her move.

From their words, it could also be seen that their target was her.

They said that they wanted to take her.

But from what?

As far as she knew, she was alright and didn’t need any saving.

Or could it be that someone was after her life and she didn’t know about it?

Additionally, she wasn’t entirely convinced of their story.

Something about the look in their eyes, as well as the give they have off, didn’t make her feel like they genuinely care for her as they claimed.

Well, whatever their intentions were, she would get to the bottom of things!

And Kora was also on her detective act as well.

With that, the vehicle drove off for a while until it finally stopped within a desolate underground parking place.

There were vehicles already parked there.

But it was still working time, as almost no one was out now.

And the buildings and a work building, but a public parking spot building.

The ladies had taken their time off to understand the workings of things here.

With that, it was time to roll!
