I reached my office and was greeted by the elder security guard that was stationed outside the gla.s.s door of the main office building. He greeted with his usual Thai gestures and so did I as I sauntered inside and headed up the stairs.I saw some of my colleagues had already started to shuffle their stuff on their desk as they welcome the new work day. All of them one by one greeted me as I entered the main office and I greeted them back as well.
"HunNa... What time did you leave the office last night? You stayed back late in the office, didn"t you? How was the narrator last night? Did you go out on a date or something? With the looks like you, it would be no wonder any girl would fall for your charm and charisma... Hahahaha..."
One of my colleagues edged over his desk and cheekily asked me about last nights situation and I just brushed him off with a smile and a wink of my eye. And the moment he saw my wink he understood what may have happened last night after the shirt meeting with the student like girl for the SPI narrator.
I unlocked my little cramped office at the rear of the department and entered in. I switched the overhead fan and put it to maximum speed, and switched on my rattling and shuddering old, window mounted air conditioner. The moment the air conditioner kicked into life, it shook momentarily before a cool breeze entered it.
I wondered to myself how long was this air conditioner being serviced and decided to call the maintenance to come over and check its freon gas to refill or clean its grill or something. I don"t know much about aircon though, I just know how to operate them as a normal user would.
As I sat on the swivel chair behind my cluttered desk and the mana clear folder with the contract with the sites and rankings of the places to visit, doc.u.mented and narrate, later on, I saw a movement at the corner of my eye.
"h.e.l.lo Sam...! Nice little office you got here... You heard I called you a few hours right? Mind if I sit?"
My skin p.r.i.c.kled with surprise as I saw Max integrate slowly before me as particles floated in a swirl and formed a shape of a person. He was dressed in light pants, a Hawaiian shirt on his back, a cream coloured fedora, his usual black walking stick and a set of leather moccasins.
He looked as if he was on a holiday and if I am not the oy one that can see and speak with him, he would be considered as an out of place farang.
"Gawd... You scare me Max...! How are you able to appear before me... Can anyone see you or something? What if people saw me gesturing to the thin air and without any presence of anyone before me? They would think of me as "tingtong" right? So... Asides all these, this if your new form? And your getup is kinda... Cliche. Hahahahah."
I snuggled and felt glad that there is someone I could talk to during times like this. Max walked over and sat but somehow his hands slipped through the back of the chair. He looked up at me feeling slightly dismayed as I noticed that he had taken up a form as a 3D holographic image that could communicate with me seamlessly.
Also, I notice his getup is somewhat related to this part of series, rather than in the past where he would be draped in a 3 piece zoot suit.
Max was observing his surroundings at the moment and he seemed surprised that he could walk through my table and also stick his head partially out from the window. The table that he had walked through had not even ruffled any of the scattered items in the table.
He looked like an apparition from the netherworld if not for his demeanour with his appearance like one of the Kingsmen, especially with his walking black cane.
"Max... You only appeared before within a few hours ago right? And not some hours like last night in the middle of the night or something?"
"Sam, is there something that you wanna tell me but find it rather awkward as it might be interfering with your personal life, that"s why the reason you brought up this subject was to hide something or doesn"t want me to somehow uncover your secret? Even if I knew, I won"t probe as it is your personal s.p.a.ce... Yeah, and so what happened night? Mind sharing me with some juicy parts? Hahahaha... "
Max sn.i.g.g.e.red at me as he used reverse psychology to entice me in revealing what had happened last night, or even have had already known what was going on and decided no hide behind some wardrobe or something and not to reveal himself except for his speech earlier when I was at home.
I fearfully thought that he might have known what p.o.r.nsak and I were doing last night and he even knew yet put on a poker face and even have the cheek to ask me about all the juicy bits of details. What nerve...!
I brushed off the idea of answering right now and just moved on as if I had not heard of what he had inquired earlier. I was wondering to myself on how Max would be travelling from one place to another and was about to ask him if he is able to communicate with me telepathically.
"Max, how are you going to travel from one place to another and knows exactly where I would be located? You got a vehicle of some sort or a GPS tracking device on me that you would be able to draw up my precise location?"
"Well... At the moment I used your last location to begin tracking on where you might transmigrate in the first place and use that as a starting waypoint for me. Furthermore, as you travel, I could be able to see a faint tracing line from where you are and where you are going to head next. As for GPS tracking device, I think the system is arranging something for me to actually locate you without tracing and also to perform playback on your past actions as well as what may come in the future so you would have a more favourable outcome then. But in not sure as I myself had personally not seen the device"
I can"t wait to see what Max had told me about the device that the system has in store for him in the future. I hope the device would be able to relay more important decisions that I may make in the future to come.
"So what is your state of the mission right now? It seems that you are in a broadcasting or production company of some sort. By the way, luckily you are in this era where things are still modern though it"s outdated in terms compared to your past life, right Sam?"
"I just sifted through some papers when I first transmigrated here and somehow had noticed a contract with one of the supernatural group that focuses on paranormal activities. The equipment here is quite shabby compared to their higher level of tech and I may end up using their equipment rather than the ones I currently possess."
"Very interesting indeed; however I won"t be able to stick around them as they might be able to track me especially since I might trigger EMF signals accidentally I believe; from their gadgets. I would rather meet you here in the morning as you step in the office or I might be meet you back at the house like say after dinner time? Oh yeah, what"s the deal with the pretty broad that followed you home?"

"Max, it is a good idea to meet me here first thing in the morning instead of heading to somewhere else. I wanna tell you that the broad last night has a Third Eye which means she might be able to see you like the way I see yourself. She is able to view my Third Eye that was on my forehead and shaped like a five-pointed star. By the way, would you be able to see the shape of my Third Eye right now?"
" Nothing of that sort, Sam. I"m not spiritually inclined like you are right now and it"s better that I stick the way as it is for me. Furthermore, I would not prefer to dabble with the arts or anything and keep it simple and tight."
"Right, just be here with me since I got nothing much to do. However, I might not be gesturing much when talking to you since I would find it hard to explain to others why I was always talking and gesturing the time since there is no one else they can see in this room. Hang around a bit while I do some research on the first 2 locations that the girl had indicated last night."
"Alright, I"d stick around here a while but and I"d get back to you in an hour or so. In case someone turns up I"d be in this corner then. If that"s the girl from last night then I"d meet you at home after 8 pm; unless you have some unplanned carnal activities. Cheerio Sam... See you soon!"
As soon as he said that, his form disintegrated and became particles before disappearing from my sights. I shrugged and moved to pick up the contents of p.o.r.nsak"s ratings for the sites we might be visiting around soon.
I looked at the time and found that it"s almost lunchtime and I might head to eat something as I had no dinner last night and only a slice of bread today. G.o.d... I missed my last leap where there"s a lot of food much hygienically prepared than this part of town.
