4. TO WATCH

As Chyou turned to exit she was hold up by Meilin as she asked, "Any update about what I asked you to look up?"

She turned around to reply," The CCTV cameras have all been checked at the location you mentioned. None of them has spotted the figure you mentioned except for one."

"Send me all the information about the location that holds the footage."

"Yes, I understand."

"No word should go out about this."

"I will make sure."

As Chyou exited the cabin she thought 'what does boss has to do with the footage. Strange.'

As soon as she received the information, Meilin took her laptop and hacked into system with the footage. She cleared everything leaving no trace of it. Then she busied herself with work.

She wanted to get done with the day. She always wanted to leave the company but due to the contract with Su Lin she was tied down to stay. She was waiting for the day when she could leave everything here behind. 'Just a year more' she recited in her head as she comforted herself.

As dusk arrived she headed out of her office, tracing her track back home. The city slowly started to grow lively with the light and noise of the night life.

She took the stairs to head upstairs. As she opened the door, the darkness that engulfed the room was sparked up with the flip of the switch. The dim light helped dissipate the utter darkness.

She took a moment as she settled down and closed her eyes. She enjoyed the silence as she took deep breaths. She stood up and headed towards the kitchen and grabbed a glass of juice. As she drank the juice she arranged all her stuff and tidied her place. Then she headed to take a bath.

She changed into her all black combat pants and fitted full sleeve tee paired with the black hoodie and her thick leather jacket. She grabbed a pepper spray, a black procedure mask and wore a plain black mask with a ripped of bottom part; just leaving her eyes covered.

As she glanced through the window of her room she could see darkness and secrecy. She smiled  to herself she took out the laptop and disabled the nearby cameras before heading out through the window.

The Hai Family

"Mey, where are you heading to?" asked Hui seeing his sister all dressed up.

"Meeting friends." Mey replied shortly.

"And where is it?" he asked with a serious tone.

"It's a party with my friends. So we will be gathering a club."

"So where?" he asked again impatiently.

"Jia will sent a text now about the location." replied Mey.

"I will drop you."

"It should be fine. Why bother brother. Also someone is coming to pick me up." said Mey.

"Tell them I will drop you off. Now follow me."  said Hui leaving no room for rejection.

She followed him to their underground parking. He randomly got inside one of the car and headed to the address sent by Jia.

Hui started lecturing his sister about not drinking and all the annoying things that she really didn't want to hear.

As he dropped her off at the bar he reminded again,"Be Careful. Let me know when you are done. I will come pick you up."

"Fine. I will keep everything in mind and also let you know when its done. Okay."

Hearing his sisters response he couldn't help but smile. As he left he made a call,"Make sure you keep an eye on Mey she is heading to club Three. Be sure to ensure everything is under control. I don't want anything happening in this short span of time. Do you get me?"

"Yes boss. Understood" came the response from the other end of the phone.

"Hmmm..." he ended the call as he thought about his sister. She would always come across or jump into some trouble. She can't tolerate something that is wrong. So each time she finds something wrong is happening she involves herself, in one way or the other. He had to keep a close eye on her to keep her unscathed every time. He couldn't help but shake his head thinking about her.

*********

The night view of the city was indeed beautiful. She captured the view of the city while sitting at the edge of one of the tall buildings. Her hair and ribbon that held the mask flew along with the wind. The stars seem to be slightly shadowed by the bright lights from the city.

As she enjoyed the moment her attention was caught buy a scene happening in a narrow alley. She saw a girl being cornered. She climbed down the building to catch a better view of what was happening.

She could see that the eyes of the girl held fear and helplessness.

Each time the girl took a step back, the distance between the wall and her reduced. She watched patiently to see what happens next.

"Standing up for yourself is great. Standing up for the weak is much better."
