Chapter 47 - Looking For Clues

nSam and the enforcers had also found that, other than the four punks.
nOne more kid of the same age has also disappeared, his name was Ravi.
nHe studied in the same class as the other four and according to the academy five of these students were the brightest of this batch.
nIt was close to midnight Sam and the enforcers were looking for any clue that they could find, but they did not find any.
nNow Sam was also having a bad premonition.
nHe went back to his apartment to get the Evil sword for help, Even though the Evil sword was weird and had many weird hobbies it was more knowledgeable compared to Sam or anyone in the village and it had many tricks up its sleeves.
nOf course the Evil Sword demanded for compensation and Sam accepted everything without any argument.
nSam arrived at the alley where he last saw the kids, the Evil sword just floated on the spot for some time and said.
n
" I am not sure if this technique will work, if the person who we want to find is more powerful than me. I won't be able to find any clue...
"
nAfter saying her part the sword started vibrating with a special frequency, soon the sword started disappearing as if it was melding with the environment.
nAs the sword disappeared completely Sam could feel that even though the place remained the same something was different.
nSoon he recognized what was the difference , when he observed with his spiritual sense he could feel the aura of the four kids.
nThen he felt a more sinister and blood thirsty aura approaching the four kids' aura, but then all of this feelings or vision were cut off as if someone had blocked the rest of the happening entirely from anyone else.
nSam came out of the special state that he was in and saw that the Evil sword was floating in the air as before.
nEvil sword
" I am sorry the person is more powerful or he or she has some powerful equipment that can stop my probing.... But that sinister and blood thirsty aura, I think I have felt it before but I can't remember…. my memory is all foggy...
"
nSam
" It's ok, we will look for other clues....
"
nBefore he completed that sentence Sam remembered something, he had also felt this similar aura when he was going to the hunter association in the morning.
nAfter thinking through it he was sure this aura was really similar, probably the same.
nHe took back the Evil sword into his dantian and caught up with the Enforcers to inform them about his conjecture.
nBut they were faced with another difficulty now.
nThe area around the hunter association was completely under the control of the hunter association, all kinds of surveillance were completely under their control and they didn't put the enforcers or anyone from the village in their eyes.
nFor the hunters the village administration and the enforcers were a joke.
nNow the village head and all others were in a dilemma, they didn't know if the hunter association would even accept their request.
nEven though they appeared to be in a dilemma everyone present knew the solution was simple, the hunter association or mercenary association worked for profit.
nIf they were to provide the hunter association with enough money, the hunter association would be more than happy to even capture the kidnapper for the village.
nBut Sam could see that the village head and the enforcer team had different emotions on their face. Some had anger, some had sadness and some had helplessness.
nSam didn't understand why these people were showing different kinds of emotions.
nVillage head
" I will talk to the association president.... if it doesn't go well, we will look for more clues..
"
nMelody
" But village head ... we can't give upon this chance, this is the best chance that we have to find the children... we should just pay whatever they ask for...
"
nVillage head
" No need to talk anymore ... have you forgotten what happened when the spirit beast attack occurred previous time and how many lives we had to pay...I have already informed your father about the situation, he will be here soon... let's hope he could be able to find a solution..
"
nMelody
" but by the time father returns, it might be too late..
"
nVillage head
" enough..
"
nMelody clenched her hand tight.
nSam didn't clearly understand the situation, but he could figure out that the village and hunter association was in no good relationship or something similar, so Sam interfered.
nSam
" Village head why don't you let me go, I know someone in the hunter association who might be able to help...
"
nVillage head
" No it wouldn't matter if you go or I go...
"
nMelody interjected
" what if we show some other reason...and let Sam handle it ..
"
nVillage head
" No, Sam had already helped us this much... we can't put him in trouble and if the truth comes out it would be more severe...
"
nThis time Sam spoke with full resolve
n
" You don't need to worry about anything, village head... I have a way to deal with this situation, just trust me ... and we are wasting time arguing amongst ourselves...
"
nVillage head
" This..
"
nWith Melody and the rest of the enforcers supporting Sam, the village head decided to give Sam a chance.
nSam didn't wait for anything else and moved fast towards the direction of the hunter association, at the same time he dialed a number in his sky watch.
