Chapter 434 - Missing Person Case (1) (1/2)

Actually, General Aston didn't just call once. Instead, he called 5 times. It was just a short and quick call. In each call, General Aston only said one or two words before disconnecting the call and call another number. So, it didn't take a long time for the five calls.

Auron waited inside General Aston's office. However, it only took 5 minutes before the first person came in. It was a woman about 23 years old. She wore thick glasses and had a ponytail on her head.

Behind her, there was a bulky man who only wore a sleeveless shirt. His face was wild and always looked angry. His eyes were sharp, and it gave him ferocious aura.

The man should be almost 40 years old. However, from the man's appearance, he only looked like 25 years old.

Not long after that, two men and another woman came. When Auron saw the woman, he recognized her. The newly arrived woman was Alice.

Alice had already resigned at the academy's teacher. She was assigned to become a teacher because of her stress and unrestrained behaviors. The behavior was as a result of his father, General Aston, missing.

Since General Aston had come back, her behavior started to get better and better. With her recovery, she was assigned back to the military. Alice was a strong combatant, and it would be a huge loss for that strong combatant to become a teacher forever.

Before General Aston started to brief the quest, he introduced everyone to each other. More precisely, he introduced everyone to Auron since only Auron was the newbie here, and the other had known each other.

Auron was the only newbie here not only in the intelligence department but also in the military.

During the introduction, Auron was quite shocked. It was because the first woman and man were actually husband and wife. They had been married for 3 years. However, the difference in age made Auron wondered did the woman married the man for his wealth.

However, Auron didn't dare to ask and just kept the question for himself. After the introduction finished, it was time for General Aston to explain the mission.

”I will now explain the mission's detail. Take a seat. It will be a long explanation.”

Everyone took on their own seat. And, just like what General Aston had said, it was a long and detailed explanation. It took 2 hours for General Aston to explain the detail of the mission. Then, the other began to ask some questions about the information, and with some debates, it took another hour.

The mission was started as a small case of a missing person. At first, at some remote village, there was reported a missing child case. An investigation had commenced by the local authority. However, they found nothing. They could not find the missing child's body and a clue at all.

Then, from one missing child case, it grew to many instances. The area even began wider. Some villages nearby also reported this missing child case.

After two weeks passed, the missing child cases kept on growing. However, it didn't stop there. The cases' severity increased. An old man had been reported missing. Then, two old men and just like the lost child cases, the number multiplied.
