Chapter 57: A busy day in the city



Her eyes lingered on his serene countenance, her fingers tracing the contours of his jawline with a delicate touch. Enthralled by the sight of his sleeping visage, she found herself captivated by the tranquility that embraced him.

A glance at the time spurred her into motion, prompting her to rise from the tousled sheets and make her way to the cleansing embrace of the shower.

Emerging from the shower, Diana was in a hurry as she hastily prepared to leave for work. She wrote a note, leaving it beside a plate of breakfast she had lovingly prepared, and then she left.

As the sun climbed higher in the sky, Jaegar stirred from his own rest, the absence of her presence palpable.

Descending the stairs in casual attire, his gaze fell upon the waiting meal and the note that accompanied it.

\'I\'m leaving for work and will be back by the evening, Love mom.\'

A smile graced his lips as he read her words, feeling a warmth in his heart that mirrored the morning sun.

With his hunger sated, he decided to go out, his thoughts drawn to the city.

Dressing in his familiar loose trousers and shirt, he came out of the house, walking towards the streets of the city. They were living in a suburban area. He took his time walking the half mile distance, taking in the surroundings. The familiar sights and sounds of the suburban neighborhood greeted him.

The quiet hum of the neighborhood gradually faded away as he approached the bustling city center.

As Jaegar stepped into the bustling streets, the rhythm of city life enveloped him. People hurried along, absorbed in their daily routines, while the promise of a new day lingered in the air.

Amidst this orchestrated chaos, his attention was suddenly drawn to a young woman, barely in her late teens, darting through the streets. Behind her, a pair of policemen gave chase, their uniforms vivid against the backdrop of the city\'s motion.

The girl\'s eyes darted anxiously, her breaths coming in quick gasps as she weaved through the crowd with agility. Jaegar\'s curiosity was piqued, and he couldn\'t help but wonder what had driven her to such desperate measures.

Curiosity piqued, Jaegar followed their path as the girl disappeared into a narrow valley, the policemen hot on her trail. The valley was dimly lit, casting eerie shadows on the walls.

Moments later, the girl emerged from the alley, her demeanor oddly composed, as if her flight from the law had never transpired. Jaegar\'s brow furrowed as he assessed the scene, discovering the policemen unconscious and sprawled on the ground.

His thoughts were abruptly severed by the appearance of enigmatic figures clad in ebony suits, an austere elegance juxtaposed against the valley\'s backdrop. With an air of authority, they efficiently dispersed the gathering populace, directing their actions with an unquestionable purpose.

Their focus then shifted to rouse the previously incapacitated law enforcement officers, who awakened with bewildered expressions, their memories inexplicably clouded.

As this scene unfolded, a remarkable, sleek black sedan materialized on the site, instantly arresting Jaegar\'s intrigue with its sophisticated allure. Its elongated front exuded an aura of vintage grandeur. Tinted windows shrouded its interior, veiling the enigma within. Yet, his fascination pivoted abruptly as the sedan\'s doors swung open, and a commanding woman emerged.

She exuded an air of authority, and her attire was elegant yet commanding. Her brown hair, kissed by hues of gold, was neatly tied in a bun that graced the nape of her neck. Poised and possessing a physique that demanded attention, she held an aura that suggested both maturity and confidence. Her piercing gaze, framed by perfectly arched eyebrows, seemed to penetrate her surroundings.

Approaching the fallen policemen, the woman\'s voice carried a low but firm tone as she inquired about the whereabouts of the girl.

"Where\'s the girl?" Her voice was low-pitched. One of the black suit men replied, "She escaped." she glared at the men and said, "Useless bunch, find her immediately."

Her displeasure was palpable as she berated her subordinates for their inability to secure the escapee. Urgent orders were issued, and her men dispersed with haste.

Jaegar\'s gaze lingered upon the scene, only to be met by the woman\'s piercing eyes. Her question cut through the air, demanding his attention. She ordered him to move out, her authoritative demeanour leaving little room for negotiation.

Amongst the gathering crowd, murmurs of speculation arose, referencing the presence of "The Bureau of Mystic Investigations" and the suggestion that they were seeking the elusive girl.

Jaegar remained silent, his gaze steady on the woman. As he was studying her, those men led her into the car, and she left the place.

"What are you doing here?" a female voice said behind him. As he turned to see who it was, Charlize was there, standing behind him with her hands folded.

Jaegar turned to face Charlize, a mixture of surprise and curiosity evident in his expression. "I could ask you the same question," he replied, his voice calm but tinged with a hint of suspicion. Charlize shrugged nonchalantly, her eyes darting towards the departing car. "Just keeping an eye on things," she said cryptically.

Jaegar asked then, "Did you see the girl or what she did?"

"Yes, she is gifted."

"Wait, do you know her?"

"Yes, and also, you shouldn\'t show your face to the woman who just went away in the car."

Jaegar\'s eyebrows furrowed as he processed Charlize\'s cryptic response. "Why shouldn\'t I show my face to her?" He inquired, his tone filled with curiosity.

Charlize glanced at him, her expression unreadable. "Let\'s just say she\'s not someone you want to cross paths with," she warned, leaving Jaegar even more intrigued and wary.
