Chapter 96  Catching Rats, Questioning

She wiped her tears with an embarrassed smile. She found it strange that the news of Lucas\' arrest made her cry.

She had always believed herself to be a woman with strong will and good emotional control, which was the reason why she found the tears flowing down her cheeks to be strange.

Why? Had she been holding and bottling in her emotions for so long that the news made her pour out her emotions and cry out her heart?

She wasn\'t crying due to the hurt or pain that came from her experience with Lucas, but instead from happiness that the person who ruined her life and that of Chris due to his lust and prideful arrogance, was finally going to get what he deserved.

Kim looked at Silas, who was sitting beside her, watching her as she cried, and felt even more embarrassed.

"I\'m sorry you had to see me like that," she said with a light sob, as she continued cleaning her tears.

"It\'s fine. You can cry all you want. It\'s okay to cry. They say that we cry not because we are weak but because we have been strong for too long. Sometimes you just have to let those emotions out," Silas said as he tried his best to comfort her.

He had cried a lot as a person, so he understood that sometimes one just has to let those emotions out and free oneself from the emotional burden.

He remembered when he would stay up late into the night, crying and looking at the night sky, making simple wishes for himself and his brother.

Kim heard Silas\' words and smiled. She oddly felt light and her stuffy heart felt free — emotions she hadn\'t felt in a very long time.

"Thank you. I will be going to bed. Goodnight," she said as she stood up from her seat and went up to her room.

After Kim left, Silas let out a lengthy sigh and threw his head back on the sofa.

"She deserves better than to fall in love with someone like my father, but that\'s how crazy our heart can be sometimes. It beats for those we feel are the wrong people," Silas muttered to himself.

"Well, time to take care of those rats," he said as he stood from the sofa and left the house.

Silas was hit by the cool night breeze as he stepped out of the house. Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

As a city located in the state that has the most cities with the best weather in the country, Oakland City also has its own fair share of good weather.

Silas took in the night breeze, allowing it as it gently blew and caressed his skin.

"Ah... A weather that\'s best suited for a night jog," Silas said with a smile as he did a light stretch, loosening his muscles and joints.

"Well, that\'s not for the night\'s agenda. I have some rats to catch."

Silas took a step forward and started walking towards the location of the first individual.

He had already gotten the exact locations of the two individuals that were following Kim.

As he walked, Silas decided to play around with his superpowers.

"Let\'s try and see if that will work," Silas said to himself, as he thought of a movement technique he usually saw in movies.

Since it was late into the night, Silas didn\'t have to worry about anyone seeing him using his superpowers as he would use the cover of the night to disguise himself and his actions.

Besides, it\'s not like he\'s about to do something overboard. Just a little movement technique...

Silas controlled the air current around him and centered it on the soles of his feet, slightly lifting him from the ground. The distance between his feet and the ground was just a hair\'s length.

He pushed his feet back to the ground, forcing them to act against the air current pushing them up.

"Now, let\'s see if it will work."

Silas took a step forward and used the air current to propel himself forward.

The result? Silas saw himself shooting through the quiet street with a woosh, and the cool night breeze evolved into a light wind that blew wildly against his body.

Silas achieved what he called pseudo-flight. Even though he wasn\'t completely off the ground and was just barely floating above it, he felt very happy with the result he achieved and was tempted to scream out in happiness.

He felt very proud that he was able to manifest an idea into reality as he never actually thought it would work.

Silas continued darting through the quiet street with his newly invented movement technique. He only stopped when he finally arrived at his intended location.

Standing in front of a small building that looked exactly the same as those in the neighborhood, he walked to the door and pressed the doorbell.

"Who is it?" A male voice came from the other end.

"Delivery," Silas replied with a smile.

"What delivery? I didn\'t order anything. Wrong address."

"No. This is definitely the right address. This is 2675 76th Ave, Oakland, CA, right?"

"Yes."

"Then it\'s definitely the right address."

"What do you mean by it\'s the right address? I didn\'t fucking order anything, damnit!" The voice grew angry and irritated.

Silas noticed the changes in the man\'s voice but he couldn\'t care less. He came with the objective of giving some \'special care\' to the man beyond the door; he had no intention of returning without achieving his objective.

It would have been easier for him if he broke into the house but that would create a lot of noise which would wake the man\'s neighbors. This is the reason why Silas was going all the way to make the man open the door himself.

"Sir, wouldn\'t it be better for you to check if it\'s something that\'s addressed to you from someone? If it\'s really not yours, then I will leave immediately."

The man saw that the delivery boy was persistent and decided to open the door and tell him off. He was sure that he made no order that\'s to be delivered to the address and his employers had no reason to send something to him through a courier service.

He opened the door and his face was greeted by a fist that knocked him out cold.

"That should do it." A young voice said as he walked into the house.

Silas pulled the unconscious man up from the ground and threw him on the nearby sofa.

After he had done that, he controlled the running water from the kitchen\'s sink tap and shaped it into a ball, before throwing it at the man\'s face.

"Wakey wakey."

The man groggily opened his eyes and let out a painful groan.

"Who–? What–?" The man was unable to form coherent words due to the pain and headache he was feeling.

"How do you like your delivery? I don\'t need your answer. Here\'s how things are going to be from now, I ask questions and you give very honest answers. If you try to be smart and not act like your normal dumb self, then I will take things into my own hands," Silas said with a soft smile that sent shivers down the man\'s spine.

"Are you ready?" Silas asked and the man nodded immediately.

He previously wanted to shout at the little kid in front of him to get out of his house but he knew better. The threat that Silas gave him had more than enough substance to it and the punch did a number on him.

Plus the smile on the boy\'s face gave him a very bad feeling. Even though the smile looked completely harmless, he felt that a lot of malice was hidden behind it.

Silas saw that the man was ready to cooperate and smiled in satisfaction.

"Good. First question, why are you following this lady?" Silas asked as he showed Kim\'s picture to the man.

The man saw Kim\'s picture and his mouth opened in surprise.

This was the same exact woman he had been following around for some days now, due to her position as the CEO of the new tech start-up, QURT Technology.

He thought he had always been careful. No, he knew that he had always been careful but how did he get caught?

He had never met the woman once, neither had he made her feel suspicious. Then why? How?

The man\'s surprise turned to confusion but his confusion might never get cleared.

He didn\'t know that he was caught because Silas decided to investigate the reason behind Kim\'s feeling of unease.

Silas saw the initial confused expression and smiled.

"Now, I will ask again and I would love to have an answer to my question."

"Why were you following this lady?"

The man heard this and gulped.

\'Fuck! Why does this kid have such an aura around him.\'
