BXBX NOVEL Chapter 899 Cassie's Plan
Christian answered the phone. Ten called his other number so Cassie couldn\'t recognize it. Aside from that, there was a voice-changing app installed on the phone so no one would ever hear Christian\'s real voice. Zero\'s identity was still a mystery to everyone, including the members of the Fiery Eagles.
Zero was the one giving them mission and task. He was the overall brain of the secret force. So now, Christian had two big responsibilitiesâ€" being a CEO of Heavenly Star Enterprise and Leader of the Fiery Eagles.
"What is it, Ten?" A robotic voice was heard from the other line.
Cassie felt disappointed hearing Zero\'s voice. As expected, the leader of Fiery Eagle would never use his original voice when talking to them.
"Lead, Ninth and I are arguing about something. I hope you can guide us in our decision. Ninth is very stubborn and he didn\'t want to listen to me."
Ten continued to speak, explaining what happened between Flint and Cassie. Christian just remained silent. He already knew what happened so he just let Justin (Ten) finish his words before he responded.
Thinking about Cassie\'s ability, Christian finally made a decision.
"Yes. You can go with that punishment."
Flint smirked upon hearing that while Justin frowned. He felt sorry for Cassie. On the other hand, Cassie didn\'t react as she was just okay with the punishment. Besides, Zero already agreed with it and she was respecting Flint.
It was her fault for not reading the rule book. And she admitted that she was always a rule breaker even when she was a child.
"Can I talk to him?" Cassie immediately said, catching Flint\'s and Justin\'s attention.
"You are not yet a member of our force. You don\'t have the right to talk to our leader," Flint refused her request, still reprimanding her.
Justin also nodded his head. This time he agreed to Flint. Cassie just shrugged her shoulders. She was not hurt by Flint\'s words. She could understand why he was so harsh today.
Christian hung up the phone as he had nothing more to say to them. Flint gave Cassie another reminder regarding her punishment. She couldn\'t sleep in their quarters tonight.
Justin couldn\'t defy Zero\'s order so he could no longer help Cassie. He left Flint and Cassie first as Uno was searching for him.
When Flint and Cassie were left alone, Flint confronted her once again.
"Tell me honestly, Applicant 0018. What made you apply to this?" He asked her curiously. Flint was having conflicting thoughts right now. He didn\'t expect that Cassie would not do this as a big deal. She didn\'t even complain about her punishment.
\'Am I really harsh for a newbie?\' Flint asked himself while waiting for Cassie\'s response.
Cassie looked straight into his eyes. Then with a charming smile on her face, she said, "I want to get close to someone."
Her blue eyes were fixed on Flint\'s face, not looking away. For some unknown reason, Flint suddenly got uncomfortable because of Cassie\'s intense gaze. He felt like he was the one she was referring to. But he brushed that thought.
This was the first time he saw her. There was no way he would be her reason for doing this! She might be bluffing.
\'What if she is referring to Ten?\' Flint thought to himself. He assumed that Cassie and Justine knew each other. He noticed how Justine was so protective of Cassie. He was defending her against him.
"Ok. Now, serve your punishment. I have to leave now. I am reminding you not to create another trouble. We are always watching you here," Flint warned her, pointing his finger at the CCTV cameras.
Cassie just nodded her head, behaving like an obedient puppy. She didn\'t want to get on Flint\'s bad side further. She had to make it up by performing well during their training and screening test.
When Flint left, Cassie chose a spot near their sleeping quarters. She sat down under the tree and leaned her back on its trunk. She closed her eyes as if she was already resting.
It did not take long when Cassie heard her fire dragon\'s voice in her subconscious.
\'Master, I think your fellow applicants have something to do with this. They intentionally hid the rule book from you. They didn\'t even stop you when you left the quarters.\' Scarlet shared her thoughts with Cassie.
Hearing those words from Scarlet, Cassie\'s eyebrows twitched. She didn\'t understand why she gained more haters without even doing something bad against her co-applicants.
"Hmm, just let them be. I will show them our capability. Starting tomorrow, we have to train well! Let\'s take this seriously. I must become a member of the Fiery Eagles!" Cassie said with so much determination.
"But it doesn\'t mean that I will not get even from them," she added while smiling evilly. She was thinking of giving those people a lesson for putting her in trouble.
Scarlet rejoiced. She was satisfied with Cassie\'s plan. Cassie was a bit different from her mother, Zhen-Zhen. Unlike Zhen-Zhen who was always a forgiving woman, Cassie was not that generous and kind.
She would certainly punish them for what they\'ve done. This was what she called fairness... in her vocabulary. What you\'ve given to her, she would give it back to you.
\'Master! I\'m in! So what are we going to do?\' Scarlet asked her excitedly. Among the five fire dragons, Scarlet was the most playful one. She always is always tolerating Cassie with some crazy stuff! For her, it was an exciting adventure to follow and obey her master\'s crazy ideas!
Cassie rubbed her chin, still thinking of a plan. "Hmm, let me think of it first. We have to see first what our first task is tomorrow. For now, let\'s create a barrier to warm my surroundings. I will sleep here and I want you to watch over me. Is that okay with you, Scarlet?"
\'Of course, Master! Let\'s do this. I know this is good for you. You don\'t have to sleep with those traitors.\'
Cassie let out a soft giggle. Scarlet and Cassie truly think alike.
