The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective

Elle arrived in the Falcon Cafe. Charles was already there waiting for her.

"Ahmm. Welcome to Falcon Cafe." Charles said to her. Elle just nodded to him.

"Is this how you greet your boss? You just give me nod. Do you want me to fire you on your first day?" Charles said to her trying to annoy her.

Elle shot him a sharp glare. Charles smiled at her and made a peace sign. "Hehe I am just kidding!"

"I am excited today because I thought I can now order her around but I am just mistaken." he mumbled.

"Let's go to the bas.e.m.e.nt first!" Elle said to him while she was already walking towards the secret bas.e.m.e.nt.

"Are we not going to open the Cafe today?" he asked her while he followed her behind.

"It is too early. Just open it around 10:00 am."

After entering the bas.e.m.e.nt she went to the computer immediately.

"Do you have any relevant information about Dark Knight?" she asked him.

"Nothing much. I just learned that they will have a transaction tonight at around 8:00 p.m. in the evening." Charles informed her.

"Do you know the exact location where the transaction will happen?" Elle asked her again while searching some information in the computer.

"I heard it will happen in one of the abandon building outside City Z. Why are you asking?" Charles asked her.

"Today is our opening day, right?" Elle simply replies.

"Yes, so what are you planning to do?" Charles asked her confusedly.

"It means it is also our first day to start a move. Time to give Dark Knight a lesson. Let's sabotage this transaction!" Elle said to him enthusiastically.

Charles looked at her in disbelief "Are you serious? You will attack them tonight?"

"Yes! This is the best opportunity to do that." Elle said with certainty.

"Okay... but their transaction will happen tonight. How would you do that? You are supposed to be at home by evening."

"Hmm I know what to do." Elle smiled meaningfully. Charles just shook his head. Catseye was really unpredictable. She would act as long as she wanted.

At exactly 10:00 am, they opened the Falcon Cafe. They also put some promo for their grand opening. They also got lots of customer for the first day. Their location was very strategic and could attract different types of customer such as employee, students and others.

They never expected that this would be so tiring. Elle was now giving Charles a sharp glare. He just smiled at her sheepishly.

'I asked him to just pick a space for our another hideout but I didn't said to him to choose a good location that could attract more customers. Charles really choose a great location for business like this. Is he planning to make this cafe big later on and run this cafe in the future?' Elle thought to herself while blaming Charles for this very tiring day.

Elle decided to close the Cafe at around 4:00 p.m. She was now really tired accommodating those customers. Charles was also tired.

Elle walked towards him and hitted him on the head. "Do you really want to make this Cafe successful? Why did you choose this kind of location. I said we will just used this as our hideout not to conduct a real business." She was now scolding him.

"Elle I think you changed a lot." Charles suddenly mumbled.

"What do you mean?" Elle frown.

"You are not the woman of a few words anymore. You are now becoming more talkative. Hehe Before you will just gave me a dangerous look every time you are upset and annoyed with me but now you are scolding me. You were also very approachable while talking with our customers." Charles let out a chuckle while feeling amused.

Elle wanted to hit him again but before she could do that Charles ran towards the bas.e.m.e.nt to escape from her and locked it.

"Charles come back here if you don't want me to beat you!" Elle shouted to him.

In the end, after chasing and beating Charles, the two of them started to prepare for tonight's mission.

____________________________________________

Evening came. Everything was all set in the part of Elle and Charles. Meanwhile... Erick already came home. He didn't see Elle so he asked his parents.

"Mom, Dad do you know where's Elle?"

"Son, she just informed me a while ago that she would come home late. She said they were busy at work since today was their first day of opening." Sarah said to him.

Erick frown. Elle didn't inform him. "Today is just her first day and she had an over time already. Do you know Mom where she is working? I will fetch her."

Sarah laughed upon hearing the unhappiness and concerned in Erick's voice.

"You are really very protective of her. I am really happy to see you care that much for a girl. Hmm just call her, she didn't mention the name of her workplace."

Erick dialled her number but to his disappointment she was unattended. 'Did she forget to charge her phone?'

Seeing his expression, his mother asked him. "What's wrong?"

"Her phone is now unattended." he said.

"Son, Elle is an a.d.u.l.t. She is a brave and a smart girl. She knows how to protect herself. She proved it already when we were taken as hostage so don't worry too much. She will come home later. Just wait for her." Sarah comforted him.

Erick just sighed deeply. Her mother didn't know about the danger that Elle's might encounter since Skull gang is looking for her that is why he was really worried about her.

But his mother was right. Elle was a strong-willed woman and an intelligent one. He should just trust her, besides she always brought the things he gave her for protection and she promised him that she would follow his instruction if ever something bad happened to her.

It was already 8:30 p.m but Elle didn't come home yet. Erick started to feel uneasy.

"Tomorrow I will definitely visit her workplace." he mumbled to himself.

After a while, his phone started to ring. He answered it. It was a call from the headquarter. There was a change in his expression after that call.

"Mom, I need to go somewhere. The headquarter just called me a while ago. There is some emergency. Please update me if Elle comes home." Erick said to his mother.

"Okay son. I will inform you as soon as she comes back. Take care of yourself Son." His mother hugged him before he left.
