Chapter 388 - For a genius, youre not very smart (2/2)

This grandson of his was really making things difficult. It was like he was back to his old, one word answer, robot-like self. He just wanted to have a normal conversation but it was hard to continue talking when the other person just gave one word answers. 'Davi… come back soon or Sei might revert back to his condition before he met you.'

”Zaki, why do you have the same face as that log?” Knowing he wasn't going to get a conversation out of Sei, old man Mikazuki turned his attention to Zaki.

Hearing him, Zaki who had been quiet all this time finally spoke, and he was back to his usual jolly self again.

”Gramps, you don't need to insult this perfectly handsome and masculine face by comparing it to the frozen log's over there...” Zaki answered cheekily, seemingly trying to lighten the mood.

”Why?! Why have I been given these two bobbleheads to look after?” old man Mikazuki could only complain, as he raised his eyes heavenward, as if asking the gods for an answer.

He then sighed and said to Zaki, ”go over there and talk some sense to your brother.” Whatever Mr. Mikazuki ordered, Zaki could only obey.

He walked towards Sei and dropped down on the seat next to him.

”The mighty Sei, being brought down to this state by his wife… I mean, ex-wife…” Zaki said out loud to no one in particular. He deliberately said ex-wife because he knew for certain that this would get a reaction from the brooding stone sitting next to him. Of course, Sei didn't disappoint, as Zaki felt the deathly glare being directed at him.

”You know, for a genius, you're not very smart. I mean, if you wanted to know what she is up to, you could just get your secret intelligence unit to investigate.”

”No.”

Zaki then sidled up closer to him and whispered his next words quietly, like he was a small devil sitting on Sei's shoulder.

”Not even just to find out where she went?”

Zaki's tone was teasing but he knew that Sei was depressed because he was apart from Davi. He knew that he might feel better if he was at least in the same country as her.

At this comment, an idea seemed to have engraved itself into Sei's mind and without waiting another second, he pulled out his phone and dialed a number. As soon as the call was picked up, he uttered ”Find out where she went” and then he hung up straight after.

Zaki was mentally patting himself on the back for a job well done. He then turned to his grandfather and have him a thumbs up.

Five minutes later, Sei's phone rang and he answered with a curt ”Where is she?”

”Country J, sir.”

As soon as he heard this information, Sei's eyes narrowed and he looked like something lit up in his brain. He spent a few minutes thinking quietly and once he was done, he said, ”I will go to country J.”
