Bab 211: The task

"This is risky business. And when I say risky, I mean real risky! Think about it. I can't even remember the number of times we flashed it in John. And now you want to do it again. What do you think will happen, huh?" Lonappan asked.

"As I said before, I'm curious. I wonder how many times can he take it. I know it's not ethical to do such shit, but I don't know man." Ponnappan shrugged.

"You know how curiosity killed the cat, right?" Lonappan asked.

"I don't think that's the right way to use that phrase." Ponnappan replied.

"Ah, I know how the phrase goes. Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back, right? And I do know how to use it. However, this time, I just meant it literally. Your curiosity might just fuck things up for everyone. What do you think will happen when John actually gains some sort of resistance to the flashes? We're all dead. And I'm not kidding about that." Lonappan spoke with a grim tone.
