World’s Mystery - Chapter 88

“what are you going to do to me?” prof stine asked us.

max shrugged looking at me.

“We are going to use you as bait to catch the moon obviously,” I said.

“We are?” max asked quite confused.

“yes, we are. now let’s get moving”

“where are we going?” prof stine asked.

“to your apartment”.

“to..my…what?!”

max took his phone out and showed me, “Cleo has sent us the location.”

I thanked Cleo through the earpiece.

we climbed down the stairs and we were about to leave the building when I went turned to prof stine, “we are going to remove the restraints now so don’t go running or cause a scene because I can’t promise that I will not track you down and punch you in the face” I threatened.

“you can’t be serious!” prof stine w.h.i.n.ed.

“it’s better than the alternative” max said.

“yeah, getting kicked in your nuts is not fun,” Jack said through the earpiece.

prof looked horrified and moved a bit away from me and max just looked more confused.

“When did you get kicked by Alex? jack?” max asked.

“We didn’t exactly have the..best first impression on each other…” jack said.

“what! I thought you liked each other!” max said.

“we hated each other” jack and I deadpanned at the same time.

“come on max even I knew that and I wasn’t even there when it happened,” Cleo said.

“by the way, if you three are done reminiscing the past, let’s get to the task at hand I want to find out this killer, I have bets to win!”

“wait you bet on who might be the killer? why is this not the weirdest thing that has happened today” prof stine sighed.

max removed the restraint and prof stine rubbed his hands.

“let’s get going,” I said. we walked to the back of the school where a car was parked.

from inside the car, sam and jack walked out. sam’s bangs were covering one of his eyes but you could clearly see that he had been crying. he didn’t have the charm of the prince that he always carried around him. he seemed normal, a normal person who cared a lot about his friend.

“I am sorry,” I told him.

“it’s alright, but next time warn me please, my rose,” he said.

“I hope there is not a next time,” Chris said as he also came out of the car and stood next to sam.

jack pointing at both me and Max said, “but knowing you two it is not possible, is it” it wasn’t a question, it was a statement.

“I am glad both of you are safe,” Jack said as he hugged both me and max.

as soon as let the both of us go, he went to prof stine. just as he was going to punch prof stine in the face max stopped him.

“We want him conscious,” I said.

“just one punch” jack pleaded

“jack, you big brother is showing” Cleo teased while everyone except prof stine and Jack laughed.

“so, who is driving?” I asked

there was silence.

we forgot that none of us can freaking drive!
