Ace Of Terrans
Chapter 70

Shi Lang mixed inside the crowd and vanished from the sights of the agent. The reason he was able to sense someone monitoring him was not only because of his ability. These were the sharp instincts he had trained during his time in Ragnarok.

He was aware that these people were not easy to lose. They had all the details and information about him. They were the secret division and it was not just a name they made to make themselves look mysterious. Secret divisions were spread all over the federation planets and colonies. They watched over those who sat in positions of power.

The secret division was a sword for those who neglected their duties. There have been times when the masses and some people in power had questioned who will watch over the secret division? Well, the answer was, everyone who questioned them was investigated and they all were dealt with harshly later.

The secret division was a blade in dark, waiting for you to slip and it will come striking over to you. One of the modern and most feared incidents was the Justice Massacre. The case started from the death of a whole platoon forced to guard a surrounded post for a prolonged period. The reason for the delay in their rescue was because the rescue helicopters were diverted to save the son of a big shot.

The secret division took charge and they investigated the matter when the masses questioned. in one week it was discovered that such incidents had taken place in the past as well, and they rounded up each and every officer. They rounded up two hundred such people and killed them all within one night. The storm set by this incident made the higher-ups wake up and they all became honest.

Thus, Shi Lang might have become one of them, but he did not trust them completely. After all, a sword that could watch over everything was something everyone should be wary of. He reached home and found that his parents were home. They looked at him with shining eyes.

The boy asked, “Mom, what is it?”

Luna Mancini said, “How was your exam?” with an expectant expression.

Shi Lang nodded and said, “It was good. We will have the graduation ceremony the day after tomorrow.”

He changed his shoes and went inside the living room and sat down on the couch across from his father. He asked, “Old boy, what is going on with you two love birds?”

The son and father had a good bonding and they would often talk to each other like this. Shi John did not mind and smirked, “You sleeky brat, landed a date so quickly.”

Shi Lang asked, “How did you know?”

This was supposed to be a secret between the young couple, how could they replace out. He was actually just curious about this and not embarrassed or something. His mother said, “My in-law told me. Any comments.”

Shaking his head, Shi Lang said, “Let’s have a nice dinner. I have to go out early in the morning. This is the first date of my life, I must make it good. Also, dad, lend me ten thousand creds.”

Shi John raised his eyebrow first but then smiled and said, “Okay, I will transfer them to you in a bit. Let us have dinner.”

Shi Lang has almost never asked them for something extravagant. This was the first time his son had asked him for something like this. How could he refuse? The trio had a sumptuous meal and then they all went off to bed. Shi Lang did not straight go to sleep, but he meditated a bit and then cultivated.

This was his habit, he would comprehend everything that happened in the day. The night passed away quickly and sunlight broke out on the horizon as well. Shi Lang opened his eyes and got up to complete his morning regime of workout. He dressed up and it was already ten in the morning. After finishing his breakfast, the boy rushed out of his home.

His parents saw his eagerness and shook their heads at this. Love can really make one act differently.

Shi Lang rushed downstairs and found a black lev car parked at the entrance. This vehicle belonged to no one else but Amelia’s house. The boy sighed and walked up to the vehicle. He knocked gently on the back seat window and waited for it to roll down.

Amelia rolled down the window and asked, “Why are you not getting in the vehicle?”

Shi Lang said with a sigh, “My dear Amelia, today is the day we both go out together, why do we have to bring along a third wheel?”

Amelia replied, “Mr. Thalus is my bodyguard.” with a confused expression.

Shi Lang glared at her and said, “I will guard your body strictly. This person can follow you in the shadows. Come now.”

He stretched out his hand to her and demanded her to step down the vehicle. Amelia gazed at his visage and she was aware that he will not be giving in in exasperation, she got off the car for him. Shi Lang took hold of her hand and led her away.

Amelia was blushing slightly because Shi Lang was leading her by her hand. She did not know how to react in such situations. The boy in front of him was so confident while she was completely different. Recalling her true nature she matched pace with him and the two people walking on the sidewalk.

The boy asked, “Where do you want to go?”

Amelia replied, “Wherever you decide.”

Shi Lang smiled and said, “What if I sold you in the black market?”

Amelia replied, “I have guards in shadows, and they all have arms.” with a smirk on her face.

Shi Lang chuckled, “So wary of me that they are carrying guns?”

Amelia did not reply and the two people soon came to a bus stop. They boarded the bus with other passengers. The buses all had a smart ticket system. So, either you scan the code with your mobile or you scan it with your communicator you will get tickets. Shi Lang used the latter and the two people headed to the Zoo.

Amelia said, “Why are we going to the zoo? Do you take me for a kid?” the vexation in her voice was clearly audible.

Shi Lang shook his head and said, “It is not that, I treat you as a child, but I want you to recall those past days of your childhood.”

His tone was calm and gentle. Amelia blushed and looked at the floor of the bus. She was not used to compliments. Shi Lang leaned closer to her ear and whispered, “You look very pretty today.”

Shi Lang was wearing a white shirt and blue jeans paired with white sneakers and the girl was dressed in a one-piece. The dress was very beautiful, the shoulders were snowhite and the hem above her knees was blue. She happened to be wearing a pair of white sneakers too.

The people around them all gazed at them with knowing glances. Making the couple more conscious and Amelia who was already blushing from Shi Lang’s flirting with her made her even shyer and embarrassed.

The boy chuckled and said, “Uncles, Aunties, Big brother, and Big sister, I want you all to know that this girl is my girlfriend.”

Amelia stepped closer to Shi Lang and said, “Why are you saying this out loud.”

Shi Lang said, “Yes, to the whole world on military broadcast but they will not allow me, so you can wait for now. As for this, consider this bus our world for now.”

Amelia pouted but her palm still did not let go of the sleeve she took hold of earlier. She was falling for him with all her senses intact. She has never sensed such warmth and concern from a boy she was in a relationship with. The bus moved to the zoo and the driver at the front said, “Have fun you two. Hahaha…”

How can he miss the chance to tease the loving couple? The couple alighted the bus and they came inside the zoo ticket line. There were not many people in the queue. After all, today was not a weekend and neither were the people interested in looking at some animals caged inside glorified cages.

The two came inside and Amelia said, “Can we go to the bird section first?”

Shi Lang nodded and said, “Anything you wish for, Amy.”

Amelia smiled brightly and the two people moved to the bird section on feet. The zoo was a piece of green left there to preserve a sense of greenery in the high and shiny concrete jungle. Shi Lang was happy to be here and Amelia was the same. She said, “Lang, thank you for the date.”

The boy chuckled and said, “Idiot, the day has just begun. Let us go watch some birds.”
