I was bored so I made a secret organization - Chapter 264: Dolls 15

The infirmary was located in the underground base beside the training area.

It was one of the biggest rooms inside the base because when it was built, it was expected that a lot of people would be injured a lot in the future. And their decision was correct; this room would prove to be useful in the future War against the Esper Association.

Inside, more than 100 beds were easily lined up across each other. Each bed was divided by a white curtain to give the person lying on it a little bit of privacy. Currently, only two beds were used. Lying on them were Stephen and Mizu.

The former was injured in the mission, while the latter apparently collapsed as soon as he returned to the base because he literally forced himself to flood the big river in New York City and ended up using his ability more than advised.

“Hahahaha! You collapsed because you pushed yourself? You need more training, Mizu!”

The one who laughed loudly was Stephen. Even when his stomach had a hole in it, he was still as energetic as ever. His body was covered in bandages. The bandage around his stomach turned a bit red due to his blood, but it had stopped a few minutes ago.

“Keep your loud mouth, Stephen. At least my brother didn’t get injured like you!”

For some reason, Yuki was the one who answered Stephen. The twin sister of Mizu was taking care of her brother beside him, peeling an apple for him and making a small bunny ear out of it.

“Hah! But I can still move, unlike someone who fell unconscious as soon as he arrived at the meeting place.” Stephen bellowed, then he looked at the blonde who sat beside him. “Don’t you think so too, Doni?”

“Well, he did his best, Stephen. Also, please keep quiet, all of you. We are in the infirmary.”

“That’s right. Please let me rest.” Mizu grumbled as he put his hand on top of his eyes. “My head is still spinning. This is too much work for A-Rank Esper like me. My sister is fine because she only freezes the sewer, though.”

“You should rest more, brother.” Yuki caressed Mizu’s hair with a small smile.

“Thanks, sister.” Mizu replied with a smile.

“Hahaha… A-Anyway.” Doni laughed awkwardly and then looked at Stephen. “I wonder if the others have already managed to find the white-haired boy’s identity. He was able to hurt you when you used your ability, Stephen. I think that boy is a really dangerous individual.”

“Yeah, I think so too.” Stephen agreed with Doni’s words. “I am confident in my ability for it not to be pierced by even an anti-tank bullet. However, that boy’s hand pierced my body as if it was made from tofu. It’s incomprehensible but exciting. If I meet him again, then…”

The muscular guy had a rather nasty beastly grin as he gripped the rail of his bed with his right hand. His grip was strong, and he tightened it until the metal rail was crushed.

“I will crush his head with this hand.” He declared, sending a chill over the three teenagers’ backs.

“O-oh! That’s really reliable! As expected from you, Stephen!” Doni sucked up to Stephen as usual.

The blonde boy respected his elder. For him, Stephen was like a father figure that he lost in childhood. Their ages were also that far apart, with him being a teenager while the other party was in his 30’s.

So he unconsciously looked up at the guy. And the guy was indeed reliable, always teaching the teenager about the way of life on the street.

“Tsk! That’s why you’re a thug.” Mizu spat out. His mouth was as nasty as always, but Stephen had gotten used to it, so the man just laughed out loud.

“Thug, huh? Indeed, I am a thug. But I won’t take something from an innocent. I am a real thug. An honest one. But I guess we are a rare thing in today’s society. Because…” Stephen looked sad and couldn’t continue his words. It was not an everyday occurrence.

Even Ao siblings, with their nasty mouths, understood that the man had lost something. So they kept silent and only glanced at the muscular man that looked at his fist. Silence filled the room.

At that moment, the door suddenly opened, and a feminine voice rang, continuing Stephen’s words.

“Most thugs are eradicated by the Public Defenders and put in prison.”

Everyone turned around to the entrance at once. There, they saw Naomi closing the door behind her.

“Sorry to bother you guys. How are you feeling?” She asked the injured guys as she made her way closer.

“Hahaha! As you can see, Princess! I am fine and kicking.” Stephen answered with a hearty laugh.

Mizu tried to raise his body, supported by his sister, and replied to Naomi.

“I am also fine. Thanks for checking on us, Princess.” He said with the most gentle sound that he could mutter.

Doni and Stephen looked at Mizu as if he had gone crazy.

Naomi was confused why they looked at the teenager like he was crazy. Mainly because she didn’t know about his trashy mouth that let out sarcasm and bad words every time he spoke. Mizu was always talking in polite language around her.

“Well, if you guys are okay, then that’s fine. Thanks to your hard work, we gained some really important information.” Naomi said as she pulled over a chair nearby and sat between the two beds. “I am also here because I want to confirm something from you, Stephen.” She said as she looked at the muscular man.

“Ah, please ask anything. Though I kind of know what you will ask about. It’s about that boy, right?”

“Indeed. But it is like I want to confirm something instead of asking.” Naomi took out her holo phone and opened a picture. It was a picture that she got from the Military, a picture of a man’s face. The man had white hair and red eyes. He looked like in his mid twenty.

“Does this person look similar to the boy that attacked you?”

Stephen narrowed his eyes and balled his fist. “Yeah! But the fucker who attacked me looks younger, though. May I ask who he is, Princess? You see, I have a ball to settle with that fucker.”

“Well, that settles it then.” Naomi put her holo phone back in her pocket and looked at Stephen seriously.

“The one who attacked you. I have a guess about that boy’s identity, but… Just wait for now. Before I can tell someone about that, I need to clean up something first. For now, just focus on recovering that wound. You will get into some fights soon; do your best to recover.” She got up from her chair and walked away, leaving some mysteries to Stephen and the others.

Once again, silence fell in the room. A second later, the sound of the door being opened and then closed was heard, and Doni broke the silence with a bitter laugh.

“Ha…hahaha… Princess is just like a storm, isn’t she?”

The others only nodded without saying anything. Coming and leaving so suddenly after leaving a mystery and making a mess in their mind. Truly like a storm.
