Chương 20: The New Task
The PC showed a black screen with many words and numbers in row. The code was unfamiliar to him. The strings kept moving downward.
"Hello?" Rei felt stupid to try to talk with an inanimate object. But, just in case.
However, after waiting for about half an hour, the program only displayed the unknown figures. No sound or whatsoever.
Rei became frustrated.
"I raise my hope like a fool." Rei bowed his head and sighed.
"I'm tired. I'll just go home and rest."
Rei just about to turn off the PC but to no avail. His frustration level has reached the peak and he felt like smashing the PC into pieces.
Just as he grabbed the screen, a door bell was heard.
The sound startled him.
Since Alden bought the house, no one was invited to visit, except Rei and family. Even their friends at school never step their foot here, let alone knew the address.
With confused heart, he put down the screen and sneakily walked towards the door. He peek from the window beside the door and saw someone standing at the porche. He cannot see the face, because it was hidden due to his limited sight from the window. However, he assumed the figure should be a man. That intruder was quite tall for a women. He's even taller than Rei.
'What should I do now? What if he is a burglar?'
'But no burglar would ring the bell to enter, right?'
Rei didn't budge from his spot. He decided to wait until the man go.
However, after 1 hour, the man was seen sitting leisurely on the porche! What a shameful man!
Rei ran out of patience. He stood and yanked the door open.
"What do you want!"
He shouted angrily.
The man who sat with his back towards the door turned his head.
"Darling, what takes you so long? And why did you shout?"
Ding
<Welcome to the villain System. I am 0I721 ready in the Host service>
A familiar robotic sound could be heard in his head. Rei's jaw dropped.
<Have I transmigrated without my concern?>
<Didn't host activated the System just now?>
<But how?> Rei was confused.
"Darling, I am tired and cold waiting outside for an hour. Give me a hug?" Rei could see the figure clearly, now. He stared at the young man up and down.
Rei predicted the young man age is no older than 25 years old. He wore t-shirt paired with washed out pants. His small face has a sharp eyes and pointed nose.
The young man also got a slender waist with proportional body. Some muscles could be seen from his short sleeves when he lifted his hand to hug Rei.
When the young man approached, Rei stepped back and slammed the door on the man's face. It narrowly hit his face.
"Darling.. Darling.. Why you closed the door? Open up, please. It's cold outside."
Rei leaned on the door.
<Hey System, what am I in this world?>
<The owner's memory will be transfer into host in a short while>
In spite of the knocking on the door, Rei started to understand the situation.
So in this world, Rei was a son of a mafia group who planned to infiltrate the police institution. The previous leader, his father, was caught by police due to the accusation of drugs dealer.
The owner knew his father wouldn't do such a crime.
So, the 20 years old son who just returned home from abroad, learning that his father was in jail, planned to infiltrate the police institution.
Along the way, he met this upright policeman, who was 24 in age at that time. The owner then seduced the young policeman, and within 1 year, he succeeded in dating him. Of course the policeman did not know about his background.
Rei nodded his head.
<Then, Host task is to kill the Police Chief.>
Rei choked on his saliva.
<What? Am I about to kill the top brass? This task is impossible!>
<The Host is the son of a well-recognized mafia boss.>
Right. He forgot.
<The rules are similar. Host has one month time limit to do the task. If Host OOC, then he will be electrocuted and become unconscious for a day. Furthermore, if Host cannot completed the task on time, Host will die a painful death in his real life.> The System started to once again explain the rules.
Rei suddenly remembered Alden.
The increasing knocking on the door awakened him.
<Then, what will I get if I completed the task?>
<Because Host has succeeded once, a new prize option has opened up. Host can choose to go back to the past, or do ten more tasks to open the future.>
His eyes shone with hope.
<Can I choose in which time I want to be transferred?>
<Of course it is plausible.>
Rei rejoiced in his heart.
<Then, what about this fool police at the door?>
<Host could do anything to dig information from him. Host character in here is shameful, clingy, persistent, and deceitful. Host could planned any deceitful acts to save his father.>
<Okay>
After all information transferred successfully, Rei took a deep breath and yanked the door. Just as the door opened, a body lunged at him and holding Rei in a tight embrace.
"Why you are so cold to me? I miss you."
"I... I'm sorry?"
Rei felt uneasy and lost for words. Since he realized his sexual preferences, he tried to hold himself together by dating many women. This is the first time he was hold by a man.
Except for Alden, of course. In his teenager self.
Sigh.
Rei's hands hanging awkwardly. Should he patted the man? Should he hugged the man back?
No.. no.. his heart only reserved for Alden.
Between Rei's turmoil, the man released his hug. He cupped Rei's cheeks between his big hands and closed the gap.
Their height differences made the man slightly bowed his head. The man's gaze piercing into Rei's soul. Their close proximity caused Rei's heart to beat faster.
A tint of red washed Rei's face.
"I.. I am hungry."
Rei stuttered and looked away from the intense gaze.
The man in front of him laugh lowly.
He stepped back then caressing Rei's hair.
"I'll cook your favorite."
The policeman than pulled Rei's hand to enter deeper into the house.
Magically, the empty furniture before changed into a living room with couches, tv, and small cupboards. Some photos were hanging at the wall or put on the stand frame in the shelves. He recognized most of the photos were of two young men, with one of them was the policeman. He assumed another person in the frame should be him. In the photos, he has a slim body with bright sly eyes. They were laughing and smiling in every photos.
Then he saw a big family frame on the wall near the stair steps. They were the policeman that stood between middle-aged man and woman. He assumed they were the policeman parents.
"I forgot to tell you that tomorrow there will be a ceremony in police main building hall. My father, the police chief, will have celebration for catching another big fish. Wanna come?"
Rei stopped in his track.
"Your father is the police chief?"
The young policeman smiled.
"Haven't I told you before?"
Well, this plot started to get interesting.
