Chapter 310: Terrifying Plan
Ryder left Shu behind in the hall as he stepped out of the mansion. He gave Shu the excuse that he was going to take a walk outside since there was still an hour before he needed to take Alice for dinner.
He left the mansion and walked on the road outside casually.
"What did you find out?" he muttered casually as he walked through the neighborhood.
If there was any person here, he would think that Ryder was talking to himself since there was no one around him, but there was indeed someone near Ryder.
It was Stanner who he had sent to collect information on the girl he saw Spying on him since the moment he came back from the Library Club reunion.
"That girl is indeed spying on you. She has a lot of expensive equipment and a gun as well," The Spirit of Stanner told Ryder.
"Did you manage to find out who she"s talking to?" Ryder asked Stanner.
"She talked to someone called Ray. In fact, I only saw her talking to the person called Ray," Stanner told Ryder.
"Ray? I only know of that FBI agent who was called Ray. Did you hear her say something about the FBI?" Ryder asked Stanner.
"I didn"t hear her say anything like that, but she did say to Ray about how his organization was useless if they needed her to trail you," Stanner told Ryder.
"That doesn"t explain anything. The police is a big organization as well. I wonder if I should just go talk to her face to face," Ryder muttered as he frowned.
" That Police Chief would have someone trail me, probably to find something against me or to know my habits so he can"t scheme against me. The FBI also has a big incentive to do it if they find me suspicious and think that I"m related to the Dark Uprising," Ryder let out as he shook his head.
"Oh, right. I do remember the number of that Ray she talked to. Maybe that can come in handy?" Stanner suggested.
" Ah, right. I can use the number to find who this Ray is. Give me the number," Ryder asked Stanner.
Stanner gave Ryder the number of Ray, which Ryder saved in his phone.
Far away from Ryder, the girl that Ryder and Stanner were talking about was still keeping an eye on him using her Binoculars.
She did seem confused as she saw Ryder talking to himself, though.
"Is that guy going crazy? Just why is this person making my brother so obsessed? He doesn"t seem special at all. He only seems crazy," the girl muttered as she shook his head.
"Continue keeping an eye on her," Ryder told Stanner after he saved the number.
He started going back to the mansion.
He entered the mansion and noticed that Shu was still sitting on the couch, lazily.
" I need some help," Ryder said as he sat beside Shu.
"What help?" Shu asked in confusion, wondering what he wanted.
"I want you to use your resources to find me the origin of a phone number and the details of the person who uses it. Can you get it done?" Ryder inquired.
Shu looked at Ryder blankly before he started laughing.
"Only that? That"s easy. Give me the number. You"ll have the details by the time you come back from your dinner," he said.
"The number is 9..."
Ryder gave Shu the number.
Shu noted the number on his phone and sent a message containing that number.
He dialed a number.
"I just sent you a number. I was hoping you could find the details and that number and the details about the person who"s using the number. Be fast," Shu said before disconnecting the call.
"Done," He told Ryder as he smiled. "Only a little bit of wait, and you"ll have the things you need."
"Is there anything else you need?" he asked Ryder.
"Nah, that"s already a great help. I"ll handle the rest," Ryder said, shaking his head.
"If you say so. By the way, how did you get that number without knowing who it belongs to?" Shu asked Ryder. Unless it was a number of a prank caller or some unknown person calling him and bullying him, the chances of Ryder asking about the owner of an unknown number were almost negligible.
He wondered if someone was threatening him or creating trouble for him using this number.
"It"s nothing. I just met a person and got his number. I"m curious about him, but I can"t directly ask certain things. That"s why I"m using this method," Ryder said, making an excuse.
He didn"t want to tell Shu that the FBI was after him for being related to the Dark Uprising just yet. He felt like he could handle it alone.
"Ah, it"s getting time to leave. I"ll check on Alice to see if she"s ready," he suddenly said as he changed the topic. He stood up and walked to Alice"s room.
He knocked on the door and started waiting for the door to open.
After a few minutes, the door opened. Ryder saw Alice, who seemed to be already dressed for the occasion. She was wearing a beautiful blue dress that seemed to be perfectly matching her beautiful eyes.
"Ah, you"re ready," Ryder muttered after being dazed for a while.
"Yes. Let"s go. We"re already pretty late,* Alice said to Ryder as she held his hand and started dragging him with her excitedly.
Ryder was amazed to see him so surprised.
In a different Place inside a city, a meeting was taking place. A few people in black clothing were standing in a circle. There was one person standing in the middle of the ring.
"Our Masters have given their command! Today is the day this city sees the first glimpse of the Uprising. The FBI killed our fellow members in Was.h.i.+ngton, and they have been acting very proud since then. Not only that, their hands even reached here to Jameson! They have been getting very bold lately. It"s time to show them what happens when they start messing with things they don"t understand. Tonight, this city will see the wrath of the uprising! The Entire city will shake tonight!" The man standing in the center declared proudly as he started laughing.
"You all know the locations. Make sure that you get as many people as you can! The world should tremble in fear when they hear about the Dark Uprising from tomorrow! No failure shall be tolerated!" the man said as he grinned.
The other people who were surrounding the man started chanting proudly.
"Uprising! Uprising! Uprising!"
