My Angel system

Chapter 372 Invisible Person



As a Lieutenant, Layla Park was a really big tech lover and because of her love for anything technology, she had gotten to know a lot of technological scientists, that's how she was able to get a custom-made drone. But everyone has their level and she knew someone who was at the top of his game at a whole different level in the tech world.

Bryan asked her to keep anything about the portal and what was going on with it between the both of them but she was sure she could trust this person with anything.

She was sitting in her office that afternoon morning rolling a piece of the drone's part on her hand when she heard a few knocks on her door.

"Come in." She said slowly dropping the part of the drone she was holding on her desk.

"Someone's here to see you, Lieutenant." The sergeant said after sticking his head through the little part of the door he had opened.

"Who?" Layla asked.

"He refused to tell me his name." The sergeant said.

Layla let out a little chuckle as she turned her gaze to the side before turning it back to the Lieutenant.

"Now why would someone who wants to see me refuse to tell you his name and you still come to me without getting his name?" She asked.

"I tried to get him to tell me but he has this arrogant type of confidence." The sergeant said fully entering the office now.

"Hmph….arrogant confidence you say, describe what this person looks like," Layla said.

"He has blonde hair, he's quite tall and he's an average-looking guy if put on a handsome scale." The sergeant explained.

"That's a very vague description, sergeant but I'll take it, let him in," Layla said, sitting up in her seat.

"Okay, Ma'am." The sergeant said before leaving through the door.

"I hope this is who I think it is," Layla said, straightening herself in her seat.

It didn't take long before the door had opened for Michael to walk in putting on a red hoodie with matching red sports trousers and a pair of black sneakers with white soles.

"I knew it had to be you," Layla said, jumping up from her seat.

"He described me, didn't he?" Michael said.

"Well, the arrogant confidence and blonde hair gave it away," Layla said with a shrug.

"You still acted so that's still a win for me," Michael said, moving closer to her.

"Yeah, it's really a surprise to see you pop by like this," Layla said.

"I was planning on heading to Phoenix academy tomorrow so I decided to see what it is you wanted me to help you with before heading there, it will be better than talking about it at the tournament," Michael said with his gaze slowly shifting to the broken drone on Layla's desk.

"Yeah, it will be better talking about it here," Layla said with a nod.

"Why is there a broken drone on your desk?" Michael asked, pointing at the drone.

"Actually, that has something to do with what I want you to do for me," Layla said.

"What is that?" Michael asked.

"Wait, we have to talk about this with Bryan," Layla said, pushing her seat back to get out of her desk.

"Who?" Michael asked.

"Follow me," Layla said heading toward the door.

Michael followed her through the hallway until she had entered Bryan's office.

The Lieutenant was on his computer as always, it looked like he was spending much more time than he normally did there today as he was still trying to find out who the third invisible person was.

"Hey, Bryan," Layla said as soon as she had entered the office.

Bryan paused after a few seconds of hearing her voice before turning to her on his seat.

"I thought you said you weren't going to bother me today," Bryan said, ignoring Michael who was standing behind Layla now.

"That's true but I have someone who can help us with getting through the portal and I know you would like to talk about that," Layla said.

"And let me guess, you've already told him about the portal," Bryan said.

"Not yet but I have to tell him if we are going to get his help," Layla said, moving closer to him.

"What are you talking about Layla?" Michael asked with a confused expression on his face.

"You know you just can't tell anyone about that Layla," Bryan uttered.

"But Michael isn't just anyone, he's my friend, he's the best technological scientist I know so far."

"I am?"

"And I am sure he is going to be a big help to us." She said,

"Layla, you just can't…."

Layla ignored him as she went ahead to tell Michael the basic things about the portal like how Tania and Leo came through it and how the portal led to a different world.

"A different world?"

"Yeah," Layla said with a nod.

"Where did these people say they were from?" Michael asked.

"What do you mean? I just told you that they are from a different world, this other world." Layla said.

"I mean the name of the place that they are from in this other world," Michael said, making himself clearer.

"Asaka, that's the name of their kingdom," Layla said.

"That's also the name of Luis' kingdom," Michael said with a gasp.

"Who's Luis?" Layla asked with a confused expression on her face.

"Luis, I've heard that name before," Bryan said before Michael could answer Layla's question.

"Where?" Layla turned to him and asked.

"From Tania, she said he was his friend at Asaka, she said she went missing and could probably be here," Bryan said.

"Well, she's right about that," Michael said.

"And I still don't know who Luis is," Layla complained.

"He's currently a student at Crockel, he came into this world the same way Tania and Leo did and somehow ended up with the Phillips. I met him at the academy and he somehow got close to me." Michael narrated.

"So Luis is the first person from the other world to arrive here," Layla said.

"You can't be sure of that, Layla," Bryan said.

"Huh?" Layla said, turning to him.

"I mean who knows if there has been any arrival of someone like that invisible person before him," Bryan said.

"Invisible person?" Michael said as he was getting more confused the deeper they went into this conversation.

"Yeah, Tania's brother Jude arrived here yesterday along with two elves but it wasn't just them, there was one more person," Layla said.

"Elves?"

"I was shocked too but yeah, actual elves," Layla said. "It was as if the person had made Jude and the elves invisible because they had turned back visible after they had run a little distance away from him but the person continued to be invisible until he was out of our camera's range."

"Wait, so if this person was invisible, how did you two know that he came along with them?" Michael asked.

"Our camera has body heat sensors installed in it," Bryan said.

"Oh, that's a smart move," Michael said, moving closer to him. "So this person didn't turn visible till he was out of your camera's range." He added looking at the screen which had the heat images of Jude and the elves running one way and the other person running the other way.

"Yeah," Bryan said.

"Have you tried hacking into the other camera in the area to see if he turned visible at some point?" Michael asked.

"I don't think I can do that," Bryan said.

"Can you do that?" Layla asked.

"Yeah," Michael said, moving toward the computer. "May I?"

"Yeah, sure," Bryan said, getting up from the seat for Michael to sit down.

"By what time did this happen yesterday?" Michael asked, stretching his fingers.

"Eight AM," Bryan said.

"Okay," Michael said, quickly getting to work.

It took about five minutes of hacking all the camera's around the area before he finally found something suspicious along that street just close to a very dark alley.

"Okay, that has to be your invisible person," Michael said, looking at the screen.

"I can't see anything," Layla said, peeling her eyes.

"Oh, let me zoom in," Michael said quickly zooming in on the footage.

It wasn't clear but now Layla and Bryan could see it, it was a hooded figure who had appeared from nowhere just before disappearing into the alley.
