Chapter 13 - Cyborgenic Lifeforms
At one section of the institute, in a luxurious office that one might call neither plain nor overdecorated. It was just a little over the top
In the room, a man could be seen sitting on the chair, directly in front of the desk, casually sway the omni direction seat left and right.
He had an average face, looking around late twenties. With black hair with a long ponytail. His eyebrows were also thick but short. Looking a bit wierd or unique maybe.
That man is Mu Chen. He was operating his personal interface. While others would only see him tapping at a wide beam of multicoloured light, Mu Chen's personal interface had been genetically modified according to his genes and brain wave. Allowing only him access to view the information contained herein.
It was the same for everyone.
He was busy making arrangements for the next batch of cadets to come. It takes an extreme amount of calculations and arrangements to successfully guarantee a high success rate.
Mu Chen is someone who doesn't like other people do something for him, since he prefers doing it himself. He believes that to perform an important job to one's perfection, it's best to do it by oneself. So unless it's a simple matter, he sends his subordinates to do the job for him. But if it involves an important matter, he prefer to the job himself.
A light sound rang out making him pause his hands. Swiping his hands sideway, a message was sent to him. Taking the message by hands. If it was not for the illumination coming off the message, he would have been deceived to thinking it was a real paper message.

Opening the message, his eyes began sweeping through the message.
Scrutinizing it as if his life depended on it. But his expression changed from his normal expressionless face to slight confusion. He was really confused. According to the information written in the message.
It states that David was just from an ordinary family of six. David as the second born. Has an older brother Derek who is currently 21 years old, his favourite hubby is reading and currently working as an engineer for a big company in the inner world taking after the father. The pride of the family. David also has two younger sisters who are identical twins, currently 13 years old. One whose attitude is cold and the other who has a fiery attitude. Quite opposite characters for a twin.
Mu Chen didn't care for that at all. What he really minded was the fact that David was just your ordinary average teenage boy back at the inner world. He goes to highschool every weekday, comes back 3pm, goes to work at a mechanical shop at 3:30pm, comes back home 7:30pm. That's was all he did through out his stay in the inner world. Although he had friends, he didn't consider them his friends as he prefers being alone.
A loner. There was nothing special that happened in his life. Well, one did happen and that was when his brother Derek got a job in a big company with huge salary. But David and Derek weren't all that close so, saying it was a special moment in his life was a bit farfetched.
He wasn't especially close to his father Damon and also his mother Aliyah. Although David's father Damon is an engineer, he wasn't given a job to work in a huge company but nevertheless, they were above the average families in their sector.
His mother Aliyah works as an assistant to some big shot family in the sector, not having enough time for the family but was the one providing mostly for the family.
Mu Chen still didn't think of that as an important aspect to him. What he was mostly interested in is David's knowledge. How he gained the knowledge he had about the Griffin was what he was most interested in.
Now, reading through the report, it basically states that David was nothing special. Even his family is nothing special. So where he got the information about how to recognize a Griffin was still a mystery. The knowledge would not have come from nowhere.
'Intresting, I love challenges.' Mu Chen touched his non existent beard. Stroking it as if there really was a beard there.
Thinking of the ways to solve the puzzle in the form of David.
Seeming to have thought of a plan, Mu Chen smiled to him self bursting into laughter soon after.
Although he wished desperately to grab David, tie him up and then pry into his head to check what he knows.
After which, advancing wouldn't be a problem for him anymore. He calmed himself instantly, it's best to take things very slowly.
If he forcefully grabbed David now that he had been registered to the institute, he would be in huge trouble.
Although the institute permits killing between cadets, they would investigate the cause of death to the latest details without anything going amiss. Also, ridging the results of the investigation is also an impossibility as different people from different departments would be there to investigate personally and give their personal reports accordingly before the council will come into a conclusion.
So, once a student was reported missing, the matter would be thoroughly investigated. Finding the cadet was just a matter of 5 hours of searching since any random insect, bees, ants, rats, animals basically could actually be a Cyborgenic lifeform.
Cyborgenic lifeforms can be basically defined as a lifeform that has been genetically engineered from the moments their parents were pregnant of them to serve different purposes. For example the eggs of a butterfly could be altered with a specific type of technique and then genetically modified to provide audio and video signals for surveillance purpose. Or can be implanted with a nanocam and a nanocircuit to merge with the lifeforms as it grows.
So basically, it's impossible to escape from any crime in the whole huge island owned by the institute except if one owned a piece of Gadgets.
Due to these reasons, Mu Chen dares not to be audacious. He has to act carefully and cautiously. So approaching David is also a no no. As that plan it self is a bad one. It would raise suspicions and speculations, some impossibly stupid people might actually speculate that he was having an affair with a cadet.
There are a lot of people fighting and scheming for his current position to the extent that they would come up with various forms of speculations just to sully his name and get rid of him for good.
Which Mu Chen would very much like to avoid.
So the only option is to…
Thinking of this, Mu Chen's maniac laughter resounded through his office, faint vibrations buzzing behind him. Almost summoning his phantomic beast due to lose of control. He quickly got himself under control. Regaining his countenance.
He called for one of his subordinates.
Putting down the barrier towards his office, Elder Ivor opened the door to his office and walked in to the office with steady steps.
