Chapter 266 - Voice letter (1/2)
”Can you tell me what are you looking for?”
”Phone. Where's my phone?”
”How would I know?”
”Dad, if you can't help then please get a side.” Honey continued rummaging the entire office, looking for his dammed phone which probably grew legs and hid somewhere.
”Her phone is switched off,” No. it was part of the belongings he had found near the cemetery.
”I don't care.”
Wang Shi fished his own phone out of pocket to give a call at Honey's number. Just now he had told Honey about Suyin, and instead of giving him an expression, the little one started running across the room in an emergency, throwing things, looking for.... Phone?
”Great, your phone is switched off--”
”Found it!” snugged inside the corner of the couch, ”Duh, useless thing. Charger. Now I have to find a charger.” Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #%!d(string=16552540406472305)/voice-letter_%!d(string=51541308191340843) for visiting.
”Use mine. It's at the table.” Before honey starts rummaging the things again and destroy office, Wang Shi suggested. He followed Honey to the table, ”Now will you tell me what's happening?”
In the meantime the phone was charging, Honey decided to have some serious talk. Man to man talk. Using the swivel chair as the step he first gets on the desk, dangling his legs down. On cue Wang Shi sat down on his chair. It's their way of having a man to man conversation.
”First, you have to work hard-- REALLY REALLY HARD-- to get ducky back.”
”I know.”
”Secondly, we have to support her to get the woodcutter punished. Who is he?”
”We?”
”Course I'm included. Do you think ducky will take another look at you without me?” Honey had that proud expression, rendering Wang Shi defenceless. He was right after all. ”Again, who is he?”
”We don't know. Woodcutter is very smart and had been hiding from us to date.” Wang Shi said, ”Clues are destroyed, traces are erased, and acolytes are killed. But I'm working, have found something....”
Honey shook his head, switching on the phone at 3% battery. ”No matter what, we have to find him. Thirdly--” his voice choked, ”--no way I'm making a choice between you and her. I want both. It's my demand.” His eyes flutter when Wang Shi ruffled his hair.
”You don't have any complaints about me?” Honey's positive attitude was welcoming, but shocking as well.
Honey shrugged, ”You saved my life, why would I complain? And I know--- my dad can never do anything wrong. I know you used greed, but we all do that daily. Many times I have tempted ducky with kisses to get her favour. It's a woodcutters fault. Only his.”
A child's innocent heart doesn't understand the complexities of the a.d.u.l.ts. Honey's innocent mind was just concerned to get the woodcutter punished and bring the two together. Problem solved! But was it that easy?
However, Wang Shi knew it was possible. With Honey by his side~ anything was possible.
”What are you looking at the phone?”
”You might not be able to contact her, but I have many ways to do that.” Honey answered.
Wang Shi held his silence, not disclosing they have found Suyin's belongings and her blood near the cemetery least he scare Honey.
”Ducky has three phones. One of them is exclusive to only three-- actually three people. I'll contact her on that.”
That was news for Wang Shi. To his knowledge, Suyin had only two phones~ one work and the other for personal use. Where did the third one come from? Why he doesn't have any information on that but Honey has. Moreover, he found only two phones in Suyin's belongings earlier. Does this mean the third one is with her? ”Which three people?”
”She, me, and James.”
”Ok. Call her.”
”It doesn't have a sim.”
”....”
”Then how will you contact her?”
Honey rolled his eyes, ”We are in the era of the 21st century and can contact anyone without sim. Trust me, dad. I know this stuff.” Wang Shi pursed his lips, ”That was the same expression she gave me when I told her about it. Do you really think we only used to bicker with each other and do nothing?”
Wang Shi nodded without a delay and Honey facepalmed. It was a light moment in this stressful time, but who's complaining?
”She taught me 'Go', I'm already a master now and can defeat anyone. She taught me breathing exercises, gave me notes, and we used to discuss it over voice chat when we couldn't meet each other. And in return, I taught her a secret language called morse code and taught her how to fully use ZZ's portal with which she used to solve those tricky medical cases. Next, we had already planned to learn a sport- it's just we were fighting over a choice between basketball and swimming.”
Suyin wanted Honey to learn to swim first, but he was more inclined to learning basketball to increase his height.
Honey was successful in making Wang Shi believe how least he knew about his tom and jerry. These two! Wang Shi pinched Honey's cheek, ”Her suggestion was right. Swimming. Basketball would be a heavy sport for you. Though you can learn it after two-three years.” Wang Shi successfully guessed who suggested what.
”OMG, WHAT IS THIS?”
”WHAT?”
”She left me a message on ZZ's portal.”
”You have access to her portal?”
”Dad, that's the securest way to communicate without letting anyone know. It's like her own private world, entrance only at her mercy.” Honey frowned, ”B-But I was not a part of this before. She has let me in just two days back. I wonder why didn't she left me a message on our private chat group but left it on her portal?”
