Falling In Love : I Love You, Today And Forever Chapter 344
Advertisement
The meeting lasted for a long time and Ivy and the two men stayed in the same place until the meeting ended. The men inside the factory had then left the office to go the laboratory downstairs and this was the cue for the three people to leave the place. They had got what they wanted for now and from the looks of it, they were sure that they would not be finding out anything else for the day.
By now, they were starving since they had not eaten a thing since morning and it was already way past noon. They first escaped from the place without alerting anybody else just like how they had entered. Later, they found an isolated place and ate to their fill. Although what they had heard and seen was still lingering in their minds, they could not ignore their hunger any longer.
"What are we going to do next?" Kaito queried as he wiped the bread crumbs from his lips after finishing his share of the sandwiches.
"Do you have the video and the audio recordings right now or does it have to be processed yet?"
"We have it here," Ronnie said and took another bite of the sandwich.
"Then, we will send these clips to someone. If our agency was operating right now, we could have broadcasted it right away. However, that will take another ten days and we cannot wait until then. The basketball tournament is in a week."
"Who do you have in mind, Miss West?"
"Have you heard about Valarie Evans who works in the Intelligence?
"No." Both Ronnie and Kaito shook their heads.
"She is the Deputy Chief there. I know her and handing over the case to her seems to be the best option right now. She will take care of it and I will not have to do anything."

Seeing the two men's skeptical gazes, she added, "We can trust her. She is an honest person. Also, I'll send another copy to the President." Ivy winked at Ronnie and the man smiled at her appreciatively. The girl was savage and she knew what she was doing. She had already made plans even before they had thought about it. Her respect for her grew all the more.
Ivy transferred both the clips to her phone and she mailed them to Valarie and the President's assistant using an anonymous email account. She then made a call to Valarie to inform her about the same. This was a matter of great urgency that needed her immediate attention.
"Hello Valarie, Ivy here."
Valarie was surprised by her sudden call. She had been discharged from the hospital now and she was back at work. Valarie, Preston and Ryder were busy trying to crack the death of General Simon Moore, but they had got no leads as of yet. They were getting a lot of pressure from the higher ups even though the President had assured them that he would take care of the things for them.
"Hello Ivy, is anything the matter?"
"I have sent you an email right now. Check it immediately. Also, don't tell about me to anybody."
"Okay. But tell me one thing. What does the email contain?"
"It is about the recent poison issue. Have a look at it and you will find out everything. Please don't reveal to anybody that it was me who sent it to you." Ivy then cut the call, confusing Valarie all the more.
Ivy smiled after ending the call and sighed in relief. "My job is done."
"What about the President? Aren't you going to inform him, Miss West?" Kaito questioned when he saw that she had no intentions of calling him.

"Nah. Informing him will only invoke more troubles for me. I am better off being anonymous."
On the other side, Valarie was perplexed by Ivy's sudden call as well as her ambiguous words. However, she still followed Ivy's request and opened her email. There were two large files, an audio and a video file and she played the video file first.
It seemed to be a camera recording of a place. There were a lot of cameras running at the same time, each focusing on a different place. From the looks of it, the area seemed to be some kind of a factory.
Ryder and Preston entered her cabin at this moment. "What are you looking at?"
"I don't know. Do you remember Ivy? She had come to meet once when I was in the hospital."
"Ivy, the journalist?" Ryder asked taking a seat beside her.
"Yes, she is the one. She sent me an email and wanted me to take a look at it." Valarie did not hide anything from her friends as they were the ones she trusted the most. "Let's take a look at it."
At first, nothing happened. She could only see the factory interior. However, after a few seconds, she saw a group of men enter inside in one of the cameras and she followed it trying to see what Ivy had sent her. She could not make out who they were as their backs were facing the camera.
However, the next second her eyes widened on seeing one of the men she was all too familiar with. Even if Ivy could not remember the man, how could she forget her Chief whom she was well acquainted with? Even Ryder and Preston could not hide their shock seeing their Chief, Frederick Clarke, in the clip.
"What is this old man doing here?" Preston questioned, running his eyes back and forth between the screen and Valarie.
"I don't know. Let's keep looking." Valarie shushed him and they continued to watch the clips. And as they did, their shock turned into horror and their jaws dropped. The truth they were viewing was too much for them to bear. The man they had called as their Chief, who was also the head of Intelligence was the one behind the poison leak. Not only that, he was the man behind the organ trafficking issue too.
This was a big blow to them. Although the man was an egoistic maniac, they had never expected him to be a horrible creature. He was the one who killed many people and destroyed many more's life. How shocking!!
Nobody said a word for a long time, each deep in their own thoughts. The truth was too much for them to bear and what was even more stunning was that an incident similar to the attack a day ago was being planned again.
"What the fuck is this?" Preston cursed and broke the silence. "I never expected the man to be a scoundrel."
"Wait a minute," Valarie said suddenly interrupting Preston. She had remembered something and her already shocked mind froze further. "If this man is the one behind the scandal, then he must be the one who sent orders to kill my father." Valarie gritted her teeth and her hands clenched in anger. The man she had actually treated with respect was her father's murderer. Her words spooked Preston and Ryder all the more and they remained speechless.
"I need to speak to Ivy about this." Not wasting another second, she dialed Ivy's number. She wanted answers and she wanted them right now.

"The God of Games..?" Eleena shook her head in puzzlement. "I have never heard of Him…" "What if the God of Games could give you the power to defeat your enemies?" Xi Wei coaxed patiently. Eleena remained silent for a while, before resolutely lifting her head and fixing her gaze on Xi Wei. "Then I am willing to become a believer of the God of Games!" "Belief isn't something to only be spoken by mouth. Close your eyes and envision His name in your mind, and feel His power with your heart," he said solemnly. "O Master of Games, grant us new life!"

Thorns of Jade [A Progression Fantasy LitRPG Adventure]
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Solo Leveling meets Chainsaw Man in this fun new LitRPG Series To become the king of Kissen, Noah Hearts trains to become the strongest swordsman in the world. The only problem — he can’t use Aura at all! Everything changes when he’s left for dead in a forest on the Kissen Fields… In a world where horrific creatures known as “demons” terrorize mankind, those who wield the mysterious force known as “aura” are the only ones who can fight them. These fighters call themselves the “Wolves of Haven”, and strive to create a world where demons no longer roam their lands! Though Noah Hearts is an exceptional swordfighter for a young man, his total inability to use aura means he could never hope to defeat the demons! Despite this major setback, he still hopes to become the king of Kissen and create a better world for those in his country! As he walks home from his daily training, his world is shifted upside down when he sees a few familiar faces in his home… This is the first draft of what I want to be a 9 volume series. I'll be editing, rewriting, and releasing the volumes on Amazon once they're finished. I'll admit, I'm finishing chapters in sprints because I want to participate in the writathon (Apr. 2022) so I apologize if there are some issues with the prose. Point them out to me and I'll fix them! Anyway, I have no backlog, but I plan on uploading chapters as I finish them. I don't want to spend weeks re-editing and never publishing like I used to, so I'm just gonna post when it's done. Like I said, this story is my take on a mix between solo leveling and chainsaw man. Specifically, the MC is the only one that can consciously level up (sort of), and the plot is fast paced and emotional just like chainsaw man. There are plenty of other inspirations, like HxH, Jojo, JJK, Cradle, and even FF6, but the first two are the biggest. Basically, if you don't like Shounen stuff, this probably isn't the story for you. Regardless, I hope you all like the story!

Contact Through Voided Lenses
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Edit: Fixed some inaccuracies in the synopsis. The void is a vast unexplored ocean filled with various wonders and dangers all waiting to be explored by those brave enough to travel and record. Many souls do find themselves brave enough to face the vast distances, the various risks to personal safety and do the hundreds of task required on a craft. However, at times the void itself can be boring with absolutely nothing to do but as time pass and more and better technology is reached, things got better. The various trips got faster, communications became faster than light and you can be home to see your loved ones after only months now. Through the various planets whether rocky or gaseous, the various stars whether small or giant, the various systems both eerily similar or completely alien. As part of an expeditionary scientific exploratory survey craft, one could see that the void offers no reprieve from all the discoveries and wonders. At times, it can feel empty and silent where no soul can hear you scream and at others it can be overwhelming with sudden phenomenon that can overwhelm the brightest of minds. The void itself is a truly fascinating ocean where one must chart the various islands or drown in its deadly tidal waves. But the question still remained no matter how you try to hide it in of itself… is there truly other intelligent life out there? Are we alone in this ocean? Those very questions still haunt the minds of those on the crafts themselves as they brace for every jump ready for the unknown and the known. Many would try to explain that yes there is other intelligent life out there whilst other still say no after 2 centuries of continuous flight out of the home system. Still, those are questions that bury deep in the minds of the crew and those at home as the voidcraft jumps to a system with a single yellow star orbited by 8 other planets with one crowning blue jewel being the 3rd closest with its 5 oceans and 7 continents, a planet called Dirt which is inhabited by a primitive species called Humanity. Hello, author here and this is my newest dive into writing particularly for the Writathon currently in progress being my first one. I hope you give me story a try but in case you still want more information on what you’re getting into, below are some pointers about the story itself. First Contact: CTVL is a story about a first contact scenario between an advanced alien civilization and a slightly more advanced modern day humanity on their planet called Dirt. Characters: The story will take place mainly on the perspective of the alien visitors themselves though there will be human POV characters who will show how the rest of humanity react through media and forums. Action: It won’t be an actual alien invasion but you have to see for yourself how well first contact went. Sci-Fi: I will be very forward here, I WILL bend the rules of physics in order to add in parts of the plot and there WILL be parts that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Theme: It will be a brooding story talking about the futility of pe… Just kidding, it’s mostly wholesome stuff to be honest here. Alien: The aliens themselves will… actually why should I tell you, you have to go and read it to find out what the aliens are though I will draw a few things here and there to aid in the process. Extra tidbit: If you are a grammar nazi or someone who really wants a realistic scifi story... this story is probably not for you at all. Anyways, that’s pretty much all I can say before I spoil something major of the plot itself, the story is slice of life so make sure that type of story is what you like because I am terrible with anything else as I found out, anyways, have a good time everyone and good luck to the other Writathon participants.
