Suguru sighed when he thought the company that was built half a year ago had come to this state. Even though the owner of this game company had a lot of money but without a good game that could be sold this company was worthless beside the professional that had been dug from other companies. 

Suguru was the main programmer in this company and really hoped for this company to be able to continue. He knew that it was very hard to get another job after an economic crisis and he also needed to work for his family too. 

Suguru wasn't sure what to do until he had heard that someone wanted to buy this company. He was very happy with the news and waited for the buyer to come. He waited at the entrance of the office since he was really free at that moment. There wasn't any project and there was nothing that he could do in this place.

Then when he was waiting he saw a silver car with a very nice design. 

"Ferrari?" Suguru whistled looking at this car. He saw the car stop in front of the office and suddenly thought that it might be the buyer of this company. He saw two people come out of this car. He instantly looked at the young man that had come out of the car. Even though this young man seemed very young, it gave people a very mature and reassuring feeling. He could tell that this person was the one who would buy the company, for the little girl beside him, he thought that she might be his little sister or something. 

Suguru also saw another macho car stop and saw two beautiful women come out. 

"Excuse me, is Mr. Akagawa inside?" The young man asked. 

"Yes, you're?" Suguru asked. 

"My name is Kasugano Haruka. I am the one who is interested in this company. If the negotiation is going well then I might become your new boss," Haru said. 

Suguru seemed very happy when he heard it. He didn't need to be worried that he would be laid off if this young man really would become his boss. "Then, please, let me guide you to meet Mr. Akagawa inside." 

"Oh, right! Two of them are employees that will help me with negotiation," Haru said. 

Sugure only nodded and smiled before guiding the four of them to meet the boss of this company. 

Haru followed Suguru while looking around this company. He could tell the equipment of this company was very new and it was very clean too. He didn't expect such a company would be almost bankrupt. 

"How is it?" Runa asked. 

"I have a good impression of this company," Haru said. 

Runa nodded and said, "Uncle Akagawa is a clean freak. He doesn't like something dirty in his office." 

Haru nodded and didn't think much since he didn't think that he would meet this uncle again in the future after he had bought this company.

Suguru knocked on the door and heard a voice from inside. He opened the door and everyone entered the office together. 

The author wouldn't mention the negotiation since it would be boring. 

Haru, Ritsu, and Seri listened to the list of the things that they could get after they had gotten this company. 

Haru had to admit that the price was quite cheap and he didn't need to worry about gathering talent again. He had a lot of ideas, but he didn't have time to make it. More importantly, this company was also focussed on developing a smartphone game. He really thought it would be good company if some people had a good idea to make a game. 

Haru also thought that he needed to get his publishing company as soon as possible since a manga could be used as a way to promote his game. 

Even though the price was cheap, Seri and Ritsu worked together to reduce the price of the company since those who didn't want to pay less. 

They spent an hour negotiating the deal before agreeing to pay 250 million yen, but it needed to be paid in cash. 

Haru didn't mind and would transfer the money right away. 

Mr. Akagawa, who owned the company, also worked really fast and called his lawyer to manage the process of acquisition. 

Ritsu also called Haru's lawyer to help with the acquisition progress. 

"I hope that you can develop this company better than me," Akagawa said. 

"Yes, you don't need to worry, Uncle," Haru said. 

"Runa-chan, give your father a greeting for me," Akagawa said. 

Runa nodded and said, "I'll tell them." 

"Hahaha...." 

They talked to each other for a while before it was their time to go to the school to watch Kirari's gambling match. 

However, before that...

Haru needed to give his speech to everyone in this company. 

Everyone gathered together looking at their new boss with a curious expression. 

"I know that you're curious about me, but I won't say much since I'm a bit busy today." 

"My name is Kasugano Haruka and I'll be your new boss." 

"I have a lot of game ideas in my head," Haru said while pointing his finger at his temple. "You might doubt me, but I don't care since I will show you those ideas in a few days after the process of administration has finished." 

"Then when my game is out on the market, I'm sure that you'll be very grateful to be able to work in this place since I won't treat you badly." 

"Thank you," Haru said with a confident tone and majestic aura. 

Clap! Clap! Clap!

It might be because they were affected by his words and momentum that they had become excited clapping their hands together very hard. They were very worried that they might be laid off in the next month, but it seemed that they didn't need to worry. They were also very curious about Haru's game idea and couldn't wait for the process of the acquisition to be finished as soon as possible. 

Haru really didn't stay too long and went out together with Runa to go back to the school since there was something exciting that had awaited them there.

"AH!"
Qiao Liang was taken aback. His eyes involuntarily looked at the black clothes that suddenly appeared but at the same time, the entire mirror broke with a loud bam—!
Qiao Liang was really scared this time. He even leaned back involuntarily and almost toppled onto the bed behind him with the chair.
The mirror inside was already broken when he looked at the screen again, revealing the darkness behind the mirror.
A line of numbers in bright blood-red appeared in the right corner. 10:00.
This line of words quickly became 9:59, which seemed to indicate that the game could only be played again in another 10 minutes.
Qiao Liang was slightly shocked, but he calmed down in no time.
"It seemed like this step is purely to test the psychological quality of a person. You must start at the center of the mirror without drifting away. Otherwise, you'll fail immediately…
"Alright, I'll train hard now and try to succeed in one shot 10 minutes later!"
Qiao Liang was full of motivation at that instant. He realized that all puzzles set by Boss Pei should be successfully solved as long as he passed this test!
… 
One hour later…
Qiao Liang stared at himself in the mirror, and a bloody ghost floating in the air had stretched out its bloody hand and was about to touch his neck…
Qiao Liang felt his heart thumping very loudly, but he still gritted his teeth and stared at his eyes in the mirror, using his will to force his eyes to remain motionless. 
That terrifying ghost, which was always wandering around the mirror, was constantly using all sorts of ways to attract Qiao Liang's attention.
Finally, it seemed to have completely lost his patience, came to the center of the screen, opened its huge mouth, and let out a shriek towards Qiao Liang!
Qiao Liang was pretty smart, he did not turn on the sound of the speaker so he could not hear the sound. However, the scene that appeared in front of him was enough to make his heart race like crazy!
However, a whirlpool suddenly appeared in the mirror, sucking the ghost in!
This ghost seemed to be constantly struggling. However, there was no avail as it quickly disappeared in the mirror.
A line of bloody words appeared in the mirror. "Congratulations, the first guest of Thriller Hostel!"
He clicked randomly with his mouse and exited this program. The invalid buy button lit up on the 'Be Quiet' page which meant that Qiao Liang could finally spend money buying the game!
Qiao Liang was so moved that he was nearly in tears.
That was tough! How could it be so tough to buy a game in this era?!
However, that was all worth it since he was the first player of Be Quiet!
"I have to share this news immediately with others!"
Qiao Liang opened his fan group and shared the solution to the last puzzle excitedly with his fans.
… 
At the same time, Pei Qian spat out two words slowly after sitting in the office for some time.
"The f*ck…" 
A chill ran down Pei Qian's back seeing the eye-catching number '1' on the backend of the Be Quiet purchase counter. It was still solved in the end. A puzzle he thought could last for one month only lasted until the 11th! Not even half a month! 
"Sigh, my previous estimate was still too optimistic. It is really impossible to trap players for a month with a puzzle of this difficulty. However, that did not mean there was no use at all. It's still alright."
Pei Qian knew very well that this puzzle had been completely solved since the first buyer showed up. As long as this person shared his experience, more people would be able to receive the invitation and purchase.
However, even so, there were still barriers to purchase!
Pei Qian set the price of The Lonely Desert Road and Game Designer as free and then silently followed the changes in sales. His mode of operating was the most optimal under the strict restrictions of the system.
In layman's terms, the difficulty in solving puzzles and the restrictions of everyone buying the game was different.
Finding clues, solving puzzles, etc., involved the players. Once someone solved the puzzle, everyone could continue to study the next step. The difficulty would naturally be set higher.
The game itself would have a purchase threshold even after knowing and understanding how to solve the puzzle.
The players must drive a car in The Lonely Desert Road for a while, personally reach the 'Game Designer' ending in Game Designer, then go to the TPDb website to search for 'Thriller Hostel', enter one's own account password, enter the dynamic code into the bloody handprint of the game, complete the eye-tracking mirror challenge before one could purchase the game. 
That was the highest threshold allowed by the system and could not be higher.
Of course, Pei Qian had nothing to be dissatisfied with. This threshold could help him to screen out numerous players.
There was also Pei Qian's attempt to make The Lonely Desert Road and Game Designer free. It seemed to be creating convenience for the players, but in fact, it was to make less money.
Pei Qian found that the system allowed the games to be completely free, but the requirements were more demanding.
It had to be a standalone game.
It must have been officially on sale for more than 10 months.
The revenue from last month must have fallen to one-fifth of the revenue when the game first went on sale.
The system would only allow the game to be free based on these three conditions. The Lonely Desert Road and Game Designer happened to meet this condition so Pei Qian was able to make them free.
He did not even need to consider web games like the Ocean Stronghold.
Repent and be Saved had been released for 10 months, but it was very difficult for its monthly revenue to drop to one-fifth of its starting revenue. This game was more durable, and there seemed to be an endless stream of newcomer players interested in masochism.
In short, the puzzle might be solved, but the purchase threshold was still there. It could help Pei Qian make a lot less money, at least in this settlement cycle.
Pei Qian turned off the platform and thought some time about the sales volume growth and what countermeasures to be taken.
The most important thing right now was…
He would first take a look at the pre-sales situation of the OTTO E1 cell phone before sending money to Lu Mingliang and Chang You!
Two days had passed from the opening of reservations on Thursday. The reservation for OTTO E1 cell phones increased to 4,728. It might still be increasing, but it has been extremely slow.
Pei Qian was very happy that the situation was not that much different from what he had previously estimated to be. The number would be capped at 5,000 by the time they had reached Sunday. It was absolutely impossible to go any higher.
Pei Qian decided to give 5 million yuan to Lu Mingliang to open up more Upwind Courier stations in Lincheng and the remaining 20 million yuan to Chang You to let him stock another 5,000 units from the original 4,000 units.
If the 5,000 cell phones could be sold, the remaining money would be used to stock up. There would then be a backlog of about 13,000 cell phones in the warehouse.
This money would then be staying happily in the warehouse until the next settlement cycle. Perfect!
… 
Pei Qian leaned on the chair and let Assistant Xin arrange everything. He could finally rest a little. He turned on the computer and casually looked at the comments of the netizens towards Be Quiet and the OTTO E1 phone.
The solution to the puzzle had been completely revealed. Posts on how to purchase the game had been spread everywhere. However, there was a clear polarization between players' comments. There were even quarrels online.
"Crazy, you can't even buy the game even if you solve the puzzles. Why did you have to make such a complicated pre-step? Are they crazy?"
"That is, that you even have to bear the brunt of the producers' emotions even though you are paying for the game! Tengda Games is really awesome, ah? They don't even give any face!"
"I still don't quite understand what the purpose of this ARG[1] is. I purely wanted to experience the game, no in solving the puzzle!"
"That's right, I definitely won't buy it. I'll just sit here and wait for this game to fail!"
"…who do you think you are? Do you think Tengda cares about this? They started this ARG and set the purchase threshold to screen out no-brainers like you."
"You can go and play a no-brainer shooting game like Ocean Stronghold. It's not like Tengda Games doesn't have any other games that do not suit you."
"This ARG is very interesting. I might not be able to solve it, but I'm so excited about watching the big boss solve them online every day!"
"This ARG, as well as the last step with the eye-tracking game, really amazed me. I feel that it's really worth it! This is equivalent to a large-scale, multiplayer free brain-burning game. It's equivalent to buy-one-get-free for the Be Quiet game. What's not enough?
"Moreover, Tengda made The Lonely Desert Road and Game Designer free, they have a conscience!"
People on both sides argued hard.
Pei Qian was not interested in the content of their argument. He only cared about how many people were dissatisfied with the game Be Quiet, which could reduce the game's revenue this month.
He then saw what the netizens said about the OTTO E1 phone. They were basically in a polarized state as well. However, the people who supported this phone were obviously in a weak position.
The reason was simple, there were too few quantities sold!
Only about 3,000 units of this phone had been sold so far. Even if they were satisfied with the cell phone, there were only 3,000 users. Some of them might not even discuss this online.
A larger proportion of users were actually questioning the brand, quality control, stocks, etc. Many believed that this cell phone was made by speculation and whether the specific value was worth buying or not.
Pei Qian was very satisfied with this. You just wait and see, you have to insist on your own judgment and don't buy it!
Finally, Pei Qian took out his cell phone and glanced at Gou Yan.
On the 18th day of Tomorrow is Beautiful with a box office of 4.184 million yuan today and an estimated box office of 225 million yuan!
Tomorrow is Beautiful ranked second in the box office. The first place was given to the domestic film that was released just two days ago.
Pei Qian held his forehead with this hand, his face full of pain.
Why did the estimated box office increase significantly?! That meant that the stamina of the movie was very strong. People probably went to watch it twice or thrice.
This was very bad news for Pei Qian. Pei Qian would earn a few million yuan more if the box office of this movie improved even a little.
What evil!
Pei Qian swiped to the right subconsciously, wanting to view the lineup tomorrow.
However, under the presale column, Tomorrow is Beautiful which originally occupied the second place, directly squeezed to the third place. The first place was an upcoming American blockbuster!
Pei Qian's eyes lit up.
My savior!
Great, the box office would definitely not reach 225 million yuan! Bro, why didn't you release half a month earlier?
[1] 'ARG' stands for Alternate Reality Game, a game that makes use of the real world as a platform to be altered by the player's choices.


I really just want to lose money! T_T
Best boss ever, prodigy of the business world, genius creator, visionary of the century.
These are the descriptions used for Pei Qian, President of Tengda Corporation.
Ever since his rebirth, Pei Qian finds himself in possession of a system that rewards him if he manages to lose money.
Instantly, a brilliant idea comes to mind — making crappy games!
"If the game flops, all my investment cost will be lost!"
"How difficult can it be to lose money?"
Indeed... how difficult can it be?
------------------------------------------------------------
This book is highly popular in China and has set off a new trend. Webnovel has very high expectations for this book and has gotten the author to refine the first chapter as an exclusive for global readers. We hope everyone will enjoy reading it.

Walking into the Physics and Engineering Sciences classroom feels strongly familiar and empty. I am the first person there save for the teacher: I decide it is best for me to sit in the middle of the classroom close to the door. The rest of the Holy Cross students are entering the classroom, talking amongst themselves. 
"What did you get for the first question?" "Goodness, this upcoming exam is going to tank my grade if I am not prepared" "Is that a new student? She was not here yesterday." "A woman!"
"Alrighty class take your seats and please be quiet. We have two new students joining us from today...when I call your names please stand up and introduce yourselves. Augustine."
I am looking at the problem on the board as Augustine stands up and introduces himself. Then I hear,
"Lithuana, Santa-Clara are you here? Ms. Lithuana."
"Hey Lithium Battery, it is your turn to share with all of us. Get a move on."
"Ms. Nory, let me do my job please. Lithuana?"
"I am right here, and it is Lithuila. What information would you like to know?"
"I do apologize for mispronouncing your name Lithuana. What ever you want to share with us will work."
"Hello everyone, my name is Blaze and I enjoy art." 
"Thank you very much. Now if everyone will put your books and notes away, I have a pop quiz for you. The problem is on the board. You will have 20-minutes to solve the problem. Feel free to take the quiz if you would like new students. I have notes for each of you so you will not fall to far behind."
I am ignoring the teacher at this point and focused on the quiz. Physics is one of my favorite classes and it never hurts to revisit a class one loves. 7-minutes later...
"Oh, you took the quiz Ms. Lithuana? (this teacher is not a good listener). Everyone else, you have thirteen minutes left."
"That is correct. I am going back to my seat."
"Show off."
"Am I a show off or are you stupid? This problem is easy."  (My inner thought as a boy calls me a show off.)
"And that is time class. Hand in your work so we can get to today's lesson: Gravity. Now what are Newton's Three Laws and who can give me an example of each rule? Ms. Lithuana please share your thoughts and come up to the board."
"First: An object will stay still or in a straight line unless a force is placed upon it: for example, my pen is sitting on my desk yet...the second I hit the desk (I slam my hand on the desk), my pen moves. The force I placed on the desk indirectly causes the pencil to move.
Second: Force is defined as mass multiplied by acceleration. The force I placed upon my desk a minute ago is equal to how much space (mass) the pen occupies....I am guessing the pen has a mass of 0.25 grams. There is no acceleration involved since the pencil was not moving. Therefore Force equals zero in my example. 
Third: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. An example...say I have two marbles: Marble A and Marble B. Marble A is stationary and Marble B is shot towards Marble A. Marble B hits Marble A. The force from Marble B causes Marble A to move...there is a transfer of energy between the two marbles."
"Excellent work Ms. Lithuana. Now class, did you all get that? If not, it should make sense when we have lab latter this week." 
I can feel Nory's eyes burning a hole into my head...I turn around and notice a different boy also staring at me with disgust. The rest of the class does not seem to care that I just explained basic Physics. He is a red haired male/close to 189cm/muscular/an air of confidence swirls about him...the fighting type. The bell rings for break time.
"How do you think Blaze handled her first class? And with Nory none-the-less?"
"Why don't you ask her yourself Suguru. She is coming this way and Nory is right in front of her. Hey we are over here."
I see Geto and Gojo up ahead with Granger and Xie standing a few steps away from them. 
"Xie and Granger glad to see you both after second period. Physics was interesting, would you not say Lithium Battery?"
"I loved the class. The teacher is knowledgable, our quiz was a piece of cake, and I love the learning process."
"You are so weird. Come on, I want to get something from the cafeteria vending machine. Geto and Gojo...and weirdo."
"It seems all six of us have Physical Education together." (Geto once we all arrive at the cafeteria) 
"Ooooh. Physical education is one of my favorite classes...after Choir and Theater." (Granger) 
"What is with the look Lithium Battery?"
"I would appreciate you all not calling me Lithium Battery."
"How about we start calling you....Lithuania instead."
"I would prefer you call me Blaze."
"Not going to happen."
"Hey Lithuana, nice work in Physics today...now our teacher is going to expect more effort from us!" (The same boy from physics who called me a show-off.)
In an effort to keep the peace and professionalism in the group, Gojo decides to say...
"Hot darn young one. Making new friends already...and to think having you come back to high school would be a walk in the park. Also, you all may call me Satoru if you would like. The same goes for you Santa-Clara."
At my expense, what Gojo has said makes Nory and Xie laugh...thanks dude.
"And you all may call me Suguru if you would like."
I am taking in my environment: groups of students huddled in various parts of cafeteria, three teachers patrolling the area in case fights break out, and energy...a technique? Or is it something else?
"Suguru and Satoru are talking to you battery, answer them."
Something is off with the environment, now to figure out what I have noticed. 
"Why are you not listening to me?"

"Looks like the bell is about to ring, we should get a move on so we are not late for gym class. I will consider calling you two by your first names." (me)
11:05am in the women's locker room adjacent to the gymnasium 
I look at the clothing Ms. Eve provided for gym class: a pair of basketball shorts, white athletic socks, an off white t-shirt. Both the shorts and t-shirt are too big for my body. That, and I am not the biggest fan of other people seeing my body...even though I will not be completely naked. 
"I am telling you, she is going to be difficult to work with. Of all the people they could have picked for us and she happens to be a student. At least we have Suguru and Satoru to protect us (hehehe..they are cute). Lithuania is too short and scrawny to be of any use."
"Hey you all, we should hurry up. I heard we are fighting in gym class tomorrow. Sounds like it will be right up your alley Granger."
"I wish you would not say that out loud." 
I emerge from the locker room a few steps behind Xie, Granger, and Nory. I have tucked my t-shirt in to keep my pants from falling off, and hiked up the pants to my belly button...and they still fall bellow my knees. Oh well. Practicality and adaptability are key skills for survival. I sit down close to Gojo and Geto...keeping our charges in my line of sight. 
"Hey. You are the new kid from my Physics class, what makes you think you can sit here? Move your scrawny body and get." (brown haired dude)
I go to open my mouth as the teacher comes in. I also spot another boy waving at me not to say anything. 
"Good morning everyone. Before we jump into today's lesson, we have three new students starting with us from today. When I call your names stand up, tell us something you like and something you dislike. Feel free to give us a fun fact about yourself too. Can I have Suguru Geto introduce yourself?"
"Of course. Greetings class as you know I am Suguru Geto, I like black cats and I dislike sour candy. One fun fact...I am a martial arts enthusiast."
"Thank you Suguru. Satoru Gojo? Are you here?"
"Yo. That would be me. Hey everyone feel free to call me Satoru. I enjoy most things and have few dislikes. And I am not going to share a fun fact about myself." 
As Suguru and Satoru are introducing themselves, I notice nearly every girl in the class swooning and mooning over them. A few boys are making comments too.
"Thank you Satoru. Finally may I have Lith...Lithu...Lithuana Santa-Clara stand up please?"
No response from me, a few students laugh at the teacher though.
"Lithuanan Santa-Clara?"
"My name is Blaze!" 
The entire class stares at me and a few people laugh. Someone whistles at me too.
"If you would not mind introducing yourself so we can get a move on with class"
"Hi everyone. My name is Blaze and I dislike bullying." (I look over at Nory while saying this)
"Thank you Santa-Clara, take a seat. Today we are continuing to learn the basics of boxing...and yes, we will be practicing with partners. Tomorrow, we will have sparing matches. Safety review first."
After reviewing the proper way to bandage the knuckles and put on boxing gloves...and boxing etiquette the gym teacher pairs us off and has each pair practice on a boxing bag: two pairs to a bag. Guess who I am paired up with?
"Scrawny one, why the name Blaze? Seems like a name better suited for a boy and not a girl."
"Names and gender are not mutually exclusive. Give me another minute I need to rewrap my right hand." 
"You seemed pretty smart in Physics class, why is it taking you forever to get ready? Suguru and Satoru are waiting for us. Move faster"
"Move faster. Not like the bag is going anyplace." (another inner thought)
"Who wants to show me the proper way to hit an opponent. If I don't get a volunteer, I will pick a volunteer myself."
There is no response from the class and the gym teacher decides to call on me.
"Fine then. Santa-Clara do you mind demonstrating for us?"
"Do you mind calling me by my proper name? It is Blaze."
"Come stand in the middle of the floor and show us already."
"Better than pissing Eve off more than I already have."
"Excuse me Santa-Clara. What is with the attitude? I simply asked you to demonstrate for the class." 
I am staring at the bag and block the rest of the class out of my head. My breath is steady, my focus is on the target, I square my body up to the bag. With my left knuckle raised, I hit the bag square in the center and gracefully dance out of the way when it swings towards me. A few seconds pass, and the bag rips in half. Not a sound is heard except for a clap coming from the boy who waved at me not to talk back to the red haired guy. No cursed energy was used.
"Dang. She has a wicked left hook!"
"Thank you. Go back to your group." 
"Don't get full of yourself, you had some luck on your side with hitting the bag. How much do you weigh and how tall are you?"
Is this guy seriously sizing me up? I need to keep an eye out for him...he will fight dirty should we be paired off during the sparing matches and do anything to fight me.
"Tell me your name first and I will disclose my weight and height"
"Garth."
"If you must know Garth, I am 170 cm and 45 kg. Any more stupid questions?"
"Hehe. A puny scrapper like you does not stand a chance in a fight against someone like me. What is going on in that beautiful head of yours?" 
Garth tries to touch my face without my permission.
"Do not lay a hand on me without my consent. Back off or your face will wind up like the boxing bag!" 
Granger looks over since her group is close to mine, Suguru and Satoru are looking at Garth. Garth makes an effort to save face:
"Wow, wow. I did not mean to offend you." (Garth)
"Piss the hell off creep!" (me)
"Time to go everyone. Have a nice rest of your day."
"I was not aware you knew how to box Blaze. This in addition to martial arts..." (Geto)
I don't shower and throw on my slacks, blazer and the rest of my dress uniform...running like a made dog to Biology and Human Anatomy since it is a few buildings away from the physical education building. I also feel like running. 
I notice the desks in Biology and Human Anatomy are in a circular pattern. Good, this will make it easy to watch over the charges. Granger, Nory, Xie, Gojo, and Geto all enter the room right behind the teacher. Garth enters the room too. This teacher looks young...hopefully she does not butcher my name.
"Gather around young scientists: we have three new students to introduce and a quiz to cover today. Take your seats. Newcomers, when I call your name stand up and state one goal you have in mind for this class or your future career. Satoru Gojo are you here?"
"Hey again folks, I recognize some of you from gym class. One goal I have for this class is to enjoy the learning process."
"Thank you Gojo. Suguru Geto stand if you are present."
"Same with my friend, my goal is to enjoy the learning process that is Biology and Human Anatomy."
"Finally, may I have...Lithua, no that is not correct, forgive me please. Lithuania Santa-Clara stand please?"
"Please call me Blaze. One of my career goals is to work as a doctor, not sure what specialty yet"
"Thank you Blaze you may have a seat. (The teacher pauses.) Is something the matter?"
I am staring at my desk, half way between standing and sitting. My body senses something strange again and I am appreciative of this teacher getting my name correct and treating me with respect.
"Nothing. Thank you for getting my name correct"
I sit down. Snickers are coming from Nory, Xie, Garth, and what appear to be Garth's friends. Granger is silent.
 "Today's quiz should take you no more than 30-minutes to complete. Papers, books, and other materials that can be used for cheating should be placed under your desks. Suguru, Satoru, and Blaze you all have the option to take the quiz. Begin class." 
We are handed a two page quiz sheet with three open-ended questions. I finish the quiz in five minutes and decide to do some investigation. Suguru and Satoru are still taking the quiz, Xie and Nory are struggling with the quiz, and Granger is about to finish. I have 25-minutes to gather information. 
"Excuse me. I need to see the Nurse...for personal reasons"
"Go on. In this class you don't need to ask permission to leave...just state where you are going so I can give you a hall pass." (I like this teacher.) 
Having followed residuals, I find myself on the third floor of building B. Looking into an abandoned classroom, I enter the classroom.
"The trail ends here but I feel a heavy presence. Come on out curse and we can play."
"How rude to assume I am a curse...what makes you so sure that all residuals belong to curses?"
"Residuals belong to sorcerers or curse users when they execute a technique. May I ask you to show yourself?"
"Not today. Instead, here is the curse you wished for don't make a huge mess or die."
The curse I felt during snack break emerges: a bipedal creature with deer hoofs, a pig torso, four human arms and hands, and an eagle head with antlers. A level-3 curse..it charges for me antlers first. 
"Curse Technique: Dissipate." 
The curse is exorcised and not a scratch on me.
"That takes care of that...someone is watching me from outside. Who ever you are, come in I am not fighting."
"She is strong and probably senses my presence. I am getting back to class ASAP" 
Granger runs back to class...taking the long way back so I won't notice she had watched me.
"They are gone. Time to get back to class...still have 10-minutes to spare."
As I am walking back into the classroom...I notice Granger is in her seat and trying to hide the fact that she saw me dispel a curse.
"Must have been one heck of a Nurses visit for you to be gone that long Ms. Blaze. You are just in time to share an answer to one of the questions regarding the systems of the human body" (I always find myself in the spotlight.) 
"What is your question so I may sit down?"
"Name four of the primary systems that make up the human body and provide a brief description for each system." 
"Integumentary: it is the skin and protects our organs/other bodily systems. 
Reproductive: self-explanatory, but...it regulates sex hormones and is used for sex and pleasure. Either act may or may not result in offspring (this gets a few laughs from people). 
Digestive: responsible for converting food into energy through different means...an example is the stomach producing acid to break down solids and liquids into micro nutrients.     
Cardiovascular: helps pump blood and oxygen through the body so our cells will not die."
"Is this your first time taking Biology and Human Anatomy?"
"It is not. May I sit down now?"
I am not a fan of being in the spotlight. A few minutes after sitting down, the bell rings and it is time for lunch. As I am making my way out of the door, the Anatomy teacher says something interesting. 
"Blaze, don't go overboard if you and the other students get in a fight. I will see you tomorrow."
I am walking into the cafeteria, a feeling of relief and gratitude fills me. Someone has acknowledged me and treated me like a person. While scouting out the tables and spotting Geto and Gojo sitting with a group of students in the middle of the room, Nory and company a few tables behind Geto's table, I notice the boy from gym class waving at me. I decide to sit with his group.
"Crud...I think she saw you Brice. Act natural and do not panic...I think I am going to stop breathing."
"Do you two mind if I sit with you all?"
"Not at all Blaze, my name is Brice we are in Gym and Biology together."
"I recognize you. Thanks for warning me about Garth during gym class. He is something else for sure" (I take a bite of the apple I purchased for lunch)
"My name is Zue, Brice and I are friends...I think we are in Physics together and maybe another class."
"Nice to meet you both. I am gong to keep eating if you two want to talk with each other or ask me questions that require little to now talking."
My gut tells me these Brice and Zue are two of Garth's victims. I hate the word victim...two individuals Garth picks on. Speaking of Garth...the twat himself is headed this way.
"There you are Lithuania...why are you sitting with Lithuania Zue and Brice? Get up n' move and I will forgive your error this one time."
"Zue and Brice invited me to sit with them. Please take yourself some place else Garth."
I need to see how far I can push Garth before he breaks. And I am protecting Zue and Brice. What is going on at the table does not go unnoticed. 
"It looks like trouble might be brewing at the far-south table closest to the door. Blaze is sitting there with two Holy Cross boys, and Garth."
"Let her be Satoru. Nothing has happened and I am sure Blaze is testing Garth's breaking point. Testing someone's breaking point suits Blaze, she is also protective."
"How are Nory and company doing?"
"All three charges are safe and sound."
....
"I want to apologize for my behavior in gym class today Blaze. Do you mind if I sit with you, Santa-Clara?"
"Ask Brice and Zue, it is their table, not mine."
"I will see myself out. As for you Brice and Zue, I expect my French homework to be impeccable. And Blaze, I look forward to our fight in gym class tomorrow."
Brice and Zue look as though they are going to pee in their pants. To make matters worse, I have fanned the flames between them and Garth. Who else is attached to Garth's group? What I have picked up from this school is....an announcement is made over the PA system.
"Attention students, will the following person please report to Ms. Eve's office immediately. Santa-Clara Lithuila. Santa-Clara Lithuila report to Ms. Eve's office pronto." 
"Brice and Zue it was nice meeting both of you, and I am sure we will meet again in French class."
"What does this woman want from me? I have not fought a student, I have not disobeyed any rules, and I have shown up for my classes on time. It has to do with the curse I exorcised during Fourth Period. Evidence for the case? "

In a world of sorcerers and cursed spirits, Lithuila (Blaze) Santa-Clara stands out from the crowd. A sorceress whose existence brings fear to sorcerers and non-sorcerers. Her bloodline wields powers she masters over time. 

In addition, she learns how sorcerers and vampires once lived peacefully together. Can the Jujutsu world handle such a curse? How will she survive high school and the likes of Satoru Gojo?

Feng Bujue already met the requirement to equip this weapon. Compared to the wrench, both weapons' Offense Points were 'medium', and they came with their own element. In terms of special effects, the wrench would deliver more damage on humanoid enemies while the blade would prove immensely useful when facing off against mechanized enemies.
For Feng Bujue, he believed that the blade had two points better than the wrench as a weapon. Firstly, this was a conventional bladed weapon and thus had a bigger attack range. Secondly, they were both elemental weapons; however, electricity could not only hold back the mechanized enemies but could also inflict the paralysis effect on other life forms. Furthermore, the weapon would not be bound once equipped, and the price of five hundred Skill Points was not that expensive. If he found a better weapon to replace it in the future, it could be sold at the auction house for at least several dozen thousand Game Coins, so there was no loss in purchasing it.
After making the purchase, Feng Bujue's inventory was full. To upgrade his current ten slot newbie inventory to the fifteen-slot standard inventory, he would need 1,000,000 Game Coins that he did not have. Plus, the price of the Tessaiga earlier had scared our main character a bit, so after purchasing Robots-Must-Die, he left Thriller Box.
He went to the market to check the changes to the ranking. The competition for the team combat ability and overall ability ranking was very tense. Other than the first two spots, the changes for the rest of the ranking were huge. However, the ranking for personal combat ability and level were relatively stable. It was worth nothing that Fearless Champion, who was the first to reach maximum level during the closed beta, had fallen out of the top ten fighter ranking, and he was no longer at the top of the level ranking. Some unknown names had squeezed into these two rankings, and these people were the main power of Regulation.
…
Feng Bujue bought four magazines of ammo at the shop and sold the dagger that he had gotten during the hunter island scenario. That cleared up a space in his inventory. Then he returned to the log-in lobby, ready to queue up for his next challenge.
Currently, his level was sixteen.
———
Title: Plot Explorer. EXP: 3,236/16,000 Skill Points: 2,080. Game Coins: 214,800
Mastery: General Ability D, Workmanship E, Sleuthing E, Fighting D (Buff from the mask), Marksmanship D, Medic F, Sorcery F, Summoning N/A
Inventory 9/10: Mario's Wrench, Eye of Hostility, M1911A1 Pistol, Echo Armor, Life Points Recovery Potions (M) x4, Flashlight, Bench, SCP-500 (20/20), Robots-Must-Die
Equipment: Jazz Shoes, Casey Jones' Mask, Death Poker (Sorcery Weapon)
Storage: Puzzle Card: Monkey, Puzzle Card: Sunglasses, Puzzle Card: Spin
Skill: Hasty Repair, Below-the-belt Shin Kick, Body Enhancement Spell, Strategic Victory
———
Temporarily, Feng Bujue would not challenge Solo Survival on nightmare mode again. One could only attempt that kind of depressing and exhausting mode at most twice a week; doing it daily would crush anyone's spirit.
While for Team Survival Mode, queuing them with Xiao Tan and the rest was more worthwhile because there was a guild EXP buff. Even though their guild only had four members, everyone would have an additional three percent EXP, which did not show up in the rating review, and that was better than nothing.
Therefore, Feng Bujue felt like trying out Killing Game again. The previous 1v1 that did not have an ending left him with a taste for more. Fighting between players was indeed quite interesting. Even though the horror factor drastically decreased for the Killing Game mode, PvP could still provide a surge to the players' adrenaline, bringing an alternative exciting experience.
With that in mind, Feng Bujue was ready to queue for another 1v1. But at that moment, when his eyes moved to the touch screen, someone sent him a communication request.
"Hmm… It's him again," Feng Bujue mumbled. The player who had sent the request was Flashes of Sword. Feng Bujue pressed agree and quickly said, "What do you want?"
"Hello, Brother Feng, are you free now?" From Flashes of Sword's voice, he seemed to be in a good mood.
"I'm standing inside the log-in lobby of an online game, talking to you, so do you think I'm free or not?" Feng Bujue shot back.
"Haha… you have a point."
"Don't tell me, you wish to team up for a scenario with me?" Feng Bujue asked in a strange tone.
"What's wrong with that? Aren't we friends?" Flashes of Sword replied.
"Let me guess… Killing Game?"
"Yup."
"No, no, no." Feng Bujue repeated thrice in an impatient tone.
"Why not?" Flashes of Sword grumbled.
"I can't beat you anyway," Feng Bujue answered cleanly.
"Ha ha…" Flashes of Sword laughed. "I'm asking you to join me for a 2v2."
Feng Bujue was confused when he heard that. "Wait, what? You're from a big guild and one of the famous players. For a professional gamer, don't you have a fixed group you usually play with?"
"I'm not supposed to be free to come online this morning, so this is counted as my personal free time, so I plan to just wander about," Flashes of Sword explained. "It just so happens that the rest of my friends from the studio are currently in-game, so I came to you."
"Your guild should have more than enough normal players, right? Can't you find anyone at a similar level to queue with you?" Feng Bujue asked.
"I've looked through the list. Even for non-professional gamers, there aren't many who are online at the moment. There are only about three people whose levels are close to mine and are free," Flashes of Sword said. "Before I logged into the game, I was looking through the guild members' information at the office, and I remember these few IDs. They are noobs with five fighting points. I would rather queue with you than with them."
"You sure are a straight-shooter… The members from your guild are noobs with five fighting points. Shouldn't you be hiding facts like that from an outsider?" Feng Bujue said.
"Ha ha… I'm just telling the truth. Capability is something you have or you don't. Even if I give them face, they might not be able to sustain it. The only way to change other people's view of them is for them to grow stronger."
Flashes of Sword had a point, but Feng Bujue was one who cared about other people's feelings, so he merely smiled and did not provide any extra comment. Instead, he changed the subject. "Then… by bringing along a teammate like myself whose fighting point is slightly higher than five, your faith in winning this 2v2 will greatly increase?"
"Brother Feng, excessive humility is also a form of pride," Flashes of Sword said. "At least both of us know very well how good you are at this game. Let me tell you, the Sorcery weapon that you got last time might be the first such item that Thriller Paradise has ever seen. In fact, it might even be the only such weapon the game contains so far."
"Hehe… Fine, fine. Since you've praised me so much and so passionately just to invite me, I'll deign to play one round with me." Feng Bujue was being extra shameless. He was going to play Killing Game anyway, and now he was hugging another person's leg. And the leg of someone like Flashes of Sword was definitely a huge leg to hug. In terms of equipment, level, and fighting ability, he was among the top of all fighting focused players.
After hearing him say that, Flashes of Sword fired off the team invitation and added, "Then, I'll queue for the game now."
 


This is a game beyond dimension–the pursuit of truth. 
The unknown seal, the gambit between gods and demons… 
The defiance against data, the retribution of human… 
In a virtual world connected with reality, consciousness dictates us, consciousness chooses us, and consciousness dictates our consciousness. 
Now, throw away you fear. 
Throw away your selfish interest, question, and disbelief… Free your thought. 
Welcome to Thriller Paradise. 
Feng Bujue lost his ability to fear because of an unknown psychological disorder. Through a virtual reality game designed for players to experience fright and despair, he began his search for his lost fear. Could he finally regain his ability to fear? Could he outwit the scenarios presented to him? Could he finally uncover the truth hidden inside Thriller Paradise?  


Di dalam sebuah rumah yang begitu luas ini, Kakek Suguru mengejar sesosok bayangan yang ia cari sejak beberapa minggu yang lalu. Ia sudah menyediliknya dan dugaannya terbukti benar. Bahwa, gadis yang tinggal bersama Takeyuki selama beberapa minggu ini adalah Nana-nya, putri satu-satunya yang ia miliki. Karena kecerobohan anak buah Kakek Suguru, Nana harus meregang nyawa bersama Zenkyo.

Itu semua adalah kesalahan dari istri dan putra Takeyuki. Kakek Suguru selalu menyalahkan mereka atas kejadian malang yang menimpa putrinya. Padahal, seharusnya ia sendiri yang menanggung penyesalan itu.

Langkah cepat Kakek Suguru terhenti di depan sebuah kamar. Ia melihat tadi bayangan putrinya menghilang di belokan pintu kamar ini. Kakek Suguru, membuka pintu dengan pelan. Ia berjalan dengan hati-hati, tidak ingin mengejutkan seseorang yang berada di kamar.

Di dalam kamar, Kakek Suguru melihat seorang gadis duduk di lantai, sebelah ranjang. Gadis itu memeluk lututnya. Adalah Akiyama Nana yang tengah terpuruk saat ini. Penyelidikan Detektif Reiner selama ini telah membuahkan hasil. Nana benar-benar tidak percaya atas kenyataan yang Detektif Reiner ungkapkan tadi pagi.

Kakek Sugur berjalan mendekat ke arah gadis itu. Samar-samar, Kakek Suguru mampu mendengar isakan gadis itu. Sangat memilukan. Bagaikan tangisan Kematian.

Kakek Suguru kembali melangkahkan kaki untuk semakin mendekat. Ia berjongkok tepat di hadapan gadis yang merunduk tadi. Tangan tua Kakek Suguru membelai surai hitam gadis itu.

"Maaf!" Satu kata yang terucap dari bibir Kakek Suguru. Sebenarnya, ada banyak kalimat yang ingin ia ungkapkan, tapi hanya kata itu yang akhirnya lolos dari bibirnya.

Gadis itu tidak langsung merespons. Ia masih menangis tergugu. Wajahnya tenggelam di antara kedua lutut. Hati Nana benar-benar terluka saat ini. Sosok yang selama hidupnya begitu ia kagumi, nyatanya hanya seorang penjahat yang rela melakukan apapun demi kekuasaan.

Kakek Suguru meraih surai hitam milik Nana, ia menciumnya. Aroma itu masih sama dari belasan tahun yang lalu, tubuh putrinya itu juga masih mungil seolah tidak mengalami pertumbuhan. Kakek Suguru semakin yakin bahwa yang di depannya ini memang adalah Nana.

Kakek Suguru tidak peduli bagaimana cerita putrinya itu dapat hidup lagi. Yang jelas, saat ini Kakek Suguru begitu bersyukur dapat melihat putrinya kembali.

"Nana-chan ... ayah sama sekali tidak bermaksud melukaimu saat itu, Nak," lirih Kakek Suguru. Bibirnya kini bahkan bergetar, seolah menahan tangis. Ia ingin sekali meraih tubuh Nana dan merengkuhnya. Namun, ia urungkan keinginan itu.

"Aku tidak tahu alasannya. Tapi ... huks tapi kenapa ayah bisa berubah secepat ini hiks? Aku sungguh membenci ayah huhuhu," lirih Nana di sela isak tangisnya. Ia masih menangis tergugu.

Tangisan memilukan Nana, seolah menohok hati Kakek Suguru. Rasa sesal yang sangat terlambat, dapat ia rasakan saat ini. Mungkin memang sangat terlambat, tapi Kakek Suguru kini dapat mengakui kesalahan waktu itu.

Bulir bening menetes dari pelupuk mata tua Kakek Suguru. Beberapa jam lalu, ia mendapat surat panggilan dari Departemen Kepolisian Jakarta Utara.  Dari penyelidikan anak buahnya, ternyata gadis yang mirip putrinya yang melaporkan. Sulit digambarkan perasaan Kakek Suguru saat ini. Ia senang karena dapat melihat putrinya kembali, tapi juga kecewa atas tindakan putrinya.

"Jadi ... ayah harus bagaimana menebus kesalahan itu, Putriku? Maafkan ayah! Ayah tidak tahu kalau kau juga berada di taksi naas itu. Maafkan ayah, Nana-chan!"
Suara Kakek Suguru bergetar. Kini, ia memberanikan diri untuk meluk tubuh putrinya.

Nana masih bergeming. Ia tidak ingin menoleh ke arah ayahnya saat ini.

"Zenkyo Nee-chan dan Taku bukan orang jahat, Ayah. Kenapa ayah begitu membenci mereka huks huks?"
Tangis Nana semaki menjadi. Bahu Nana bergetar karena isak tangisnya.

"Maaf! Maafkan ayah yang telah dibutakan oleh harta! Ayah benci karena melihat keturunan Takeyuki ternyata adalah seorang anak laki-laki, dan---"

Nana mendorong ayahnya, kuat. Ia berdiri dan menjauh dari Kakek Suguru.

"Jadi, hanya karena itu, hah?! Alasan yang sungguh menggelikan, Ayah! Ayah merenggut tiga nyawa sekaligus hanya karena harta? Ayah ini manusia atau iblis sebenarnya, hah?!" teriak Nana, frustrasi.

"Ayah menyesal ... sungguh! Jadi maafkan ayah, ku mohon!" Kakek Suguru mencengkeram kedua lengan Nana, memohon pengampunan.

"Hanya kata maaf tak bisa mengembalikan semuanya, Ayah! Aku benar-benar membenci Anda, Akiyama-sama!" teriak Nana kembali. Ia tidak mengenali lagi sosok yang berada di hadapannya saat ini. Bagaimana bisa sosok ayah yang hangat dalam hidup Nana, ternyata kelakuannya lebih hina dari iblis. Nana sadar, jika bahkan iblis sungguhan yang ia temui selama ini bahkan lebih baik dari ayahnya.

"Hentikan, Nana! Jangan menatap ayah dengan tatapan benci seperti itu! Ayah akan menyerahkan diri pada polisi dan mengakui semuanya. Tapi ayah mohon ... ayah mohon jangan benci ayah!" Kakek Suguru menangis dalam diam. Ia terus meremas tangan putrinya.

Prang!!
Nana memhempaskan tangan Akiyama tua itu. Ia mendekat ke arah meja dan banting apa pun yang dilihatnya.

Sikap tempramental yang dimiliki seluruh keluarga Akiyama. Kakek Suguru hanya terdiam melihat emosi putrinya yang membuncah itu.

"Aku membenci Anda, Akiyama-sama! Seharusnya Anda menghukum diri Anda sendiri. Tapi, kenapa Anda melimpahkan semua kesalahan pada Taku, hah? Bahkan saat kecelakaan itu terjadi, ia belum bisa bicara secara lancar. Kenapa ia harus menanggung kebencian Anda, hah?" bentak Nana. Ia tidak terima saat Takeyuki bercerita bahwa yang melukai Joon adalah suruhan Akiyama Suguru, ayah kandung Nana.

Kakek Suguru menggeleng cepat. Ia bersimpuh di lantai.
"Ayah bingung, Nana. Ayah terlalu malu untuk mengakui kesalahan. Kesalahan bahwa ayah yang telah menyebabkan kalian meninggal. Ayah tidak ingin mengakui hal itu. Ayah hanya butuh seseorang untuk disalahkan."

"Tapi kenapa harus Takumi, Ayah! Dia sama sekali tidak tahu apa pun saat itu. Apa kesalahan bocah malang itu, Ayah?" Nana kembali membentak.

"Ayah tidak menyukai bocah itu sejak ia terlahir di dunia ini, Nana. Lagipula, dia satu-satunya yang selamat dalam kecelakaan itu dan---"

"Oh ... jadi begitu, Akiyama-sama? Anda ingin menghapuskan semua bukti dan saksi sepertinya. Jika begitu, aku tidak lagi menyesal telah melaporkan Anda ke polisi." Nana menampilkan senyum miring. Begitu mengerikan di mata Kakek Suguru.

"Tapi ... bukankah kau masih hidup, Putriku? Ayah begitu senang ternyata kau masih di dunia ini. Ke mana saja kau selama belasan tahun ini, Nak?" Ada senyuman singkat di bibir Kakek Suguru. Meski ia yang memakamkan sendiri jasad putrinya waktu itu, tapi ia masih ingin meyakini jika yang berada di depannya ini memang Nana-nya.

"Huh, menggelikan! Ayah benar-benar penjahat! Dan lagi, aku bukan Akiyama Nana, putri Anda. Namaku adalah Mawar Hitam Nana. Apa yang Anda lihat saat ini bukannya yang sebenarnya. Tapi satu hal yang penting, aku benar-benar membenci Anda, Akiyama-sama!" ucap Nana.

Ceklek!
Pintu kamar Nana terbuka. Takeyuki berdiri di sisi pintu dengan napas menderu. Sepertinya, ia mendengar percakapan mereka dari tadi.


Bersambung ....

Tinggal bersama 3 ayah dengan berbagai kepribadian yang berbeda, inilah yang dialami remaja tampan berusia awal 15 tahun itu. Ia sudah bahagia sebenarnya, tapi ia merasa perlu juga mengetahui identitas dia sebenarnya. Perjalanan remaja agak slengean, Arjuna Raizaski alias Joon, mencari jati diri sebenarnya.

Hingga suatu saat, ada yang mengatakan jika Joon bukanlah manusia seutuhnya. Itu membuat Joon semakin ingin mencari jati diri yang sesungguhnya. Benarkah ia bukan manusia biasa?

"Haruskah aku membunuh putraku sendiri untuk memutuskan kutukan ikatan darah ini?" Lizen bermonolog.

"Lakukanlah, Ayah! Jika ini memang takdir yang harus kita lalui." Joon menyahut dengan tersenyum.

I remember the day we met. Oh my! We exchanged more than 1000 words in less than 100 minutes in a venue that upholds silence. I could tell we would fit like jigsaw puzzle pieces.
I gave you free space in my heart, killed a million brain cells contemplating you. And I didn't stop there. I gave you this booty to tap and this body to have and to hold.
I saw our futures together. Well, that didn't involve mini-us but boy, I wouldn't mind if they had your teeth and that small beautiful gap. There is forever, and then there was us. Right in the middle of it.
We went from late-night texting, everyday texting, to communication that is drier than the taps in Nairobi County during water rationing. I could say you left without a trace, but I would be lying. You left with the tip of my heart. And I, I remained with dreams of a rekindled us.
You saw me one day. You gave me a millisecond long glance. That is all I got!! I consoled myself that you hadn't seen me but my call went unanswered later that day. I then knew content had run out for me and the fairy tale I had written of us in my head. There was no longer an 'us' but You and I.
For 10 months, I awaited your text, your call, anything. In those ten months, I called you three times, initiated message conversations 6 times (my pride had me in check), two of which were left on reading. Is it petty that I know the number? What's even pettier is that you were online. Are still online!!!! The few times (7) we talked (more like I talked), the excitement was gone. Was as if I was asking you about the plumbing job you needed to do in my house. The plumbing I wanted you to do was on my heart but over and over again (it was two times hehe) you did the plumbing on my body (I was desperate for him!). Only to go back to your cave and ignore my existence.
We never said goodbye. It would've been better if we fought and hurled insults and maybe even kicks at each other rather than you zooming out of my life.
It has been one year now. I still remember you, waste brain cells on you. You never broke my heart. You perforated it and took away the tip. I wish we never exchanged our first 100 words. You are not here. Not in my recent chats or call log. Unless you consider the thoughts I have of you.
Don't come back I can't survive getting over you twice.

"No matter what it takes."

A doctor's greatest mission is saving lives and Nikita has been diligently doing that for six years. However, when the tables turn and the young Pavlenko loses everything in the crash that Saturday morning, Nikita's not sure about committing to the hypocritic oath anymore. 

Hopeless and extremely depressed, Nikita's on one mission: To find out what happened that day. Along the way, the surgeon has to choose tools wisely. 
A scalpel or a combat knife. 
A defribillator or an M16.
A pacemaker or a legion of hackers.

But how much more does Nikita have to lose to get answers?
