After reserving his ne ticket, as he was on his way to the airport he called Amara, telling him he was going back to Ennd as he had something to do there.


    He was expecting Amara to say something about his depart or ask more questions, but unexpectedly she said nothing other than "Okay, safe trip." before hanging up, which made Detective Lock wonder what she was doing at the moment to be so impatient, to the point of wanting to hang up faster.


    After that Detective Lock went to the airport as he took off to Ennd from there.


    He was going to Ennd in person because it was something better to be said in person, as he also had something else to do there.

    Mr. Martin, Amara’s father, was sitting in his study room in the family’s big mansion that looked almost like a castle, the study was filled with books and bookshelves as the whole room was decorated in brown, giving a more ancient feel too it.


    In the past few days, he was quite busy following the news of Virus Industries rted to cars, and every time and every day, his face was turning grimmer.


    This was probably the reaction most of thepanies around the same level as Virus Company was having.


    At first thispany wasn’t under Mr. Martin’s radar at all and when he was reported by the news of thispany, he didn’t care about thispany at all, thinking it was probably another one of those cheap carpanies which would never be able topete with them andter he thought even if it did, it would still be far behind their long be known around the world name.


    But after seeing the reports of cars’ power, functions, shape, etc. he started turning serious because the technology used in some of the cars was even more advanced than theirs!


    This made him wake up, as he started following the news rted to thatpany to see if things were as serious as he thought it was.


    At first, the reaction was not a lot by people as they had almost no expectation from this new carpany, other than saying this was that phonepany’s car branch.


    Some people even mocked and ridiculed them seeing how rashly they jumped into another industry, even before having a strong foundation in their own previous industry first.


    Some even said they are just biting off far more than they can chew!


    Seeing these reactions Mr. Martin was a little relieved, not relieved that they would not be a rival, no, he knew that was meant to happen sooner orter.


    What he was relieved about was that it seems people’s trust was not that much in thepany, so he was relieved to know that it seemed he would have time to prepare and even advance their technology to the same level before they are known enough in the field of the car industry.


    But as a couple of days passed he figured that he was mistaken greatly about this and as days passed, people started to realize how good the cars were.


    ’This happened because lots of weaker stupid carpanies started spreading rumors about thatpany because they realized how good their cars where, but that just made more controversy as lot’s of focus was drawn to the cars, making people start talking about how good the cars are!’ Mr. Martin thought, very angry at how nitwit somepanies can get.


    "Just in STUPID!" he said out loud unable to keep his anger inside.


    Now, in just a couple days, the word was spreading as everyone is speaking about how good the cars of thatpany are and how they have such wonderful functions.


    Mr. Martin now knew the time he thought he had was probably gone and he was right!


    After that, in the past few days, the selling percentage of hispany’s cars decreasing even as he was sitting in his room thinking by himself.


    He knew he had to do something soon or hispany’s going to face a crisis soon.


    So he appointed someone to investigate thatpany as he started looking for ns that might be helpful, he wasn’t going to do anything extreme at this point, he just wanted to know his enemy well before making any moves.


    But oddly he found nothing other than some general things which anyone can find if they investigate.


    So he was quite disappointed but had not given up as he started thinking of ways he could stabilize his decreasing selling percentage.


    After thinking for so much he still found no way he could stabilize the sells, other than having the same technology as thatpany or at least close to it.


    But he knew that was not possible in a short period of time before hispany goes through a big loss, he needed something that would have an effect fast.


    So knowing that he won’t be able to stabilize the sells in any legal and more moral way like this, he knew he had to be more extreme and destructive in his ways of dealing with the otherpany.


    He rarely tried to destroy anotherpany as he didn’t quite feel right about doing that, as he was not a bad person. However, he was a decisive man and a very good CEO and Chairman at that, so if he had to choose between his ownpany being destroyed or another, he would definitely decide to thetter even if he has to do it by his own hands.


    So he started thinking about how he can take down the Virus Industries before it flourishes too much.


    But after thinking for many days, he still hasn’t found any way that would lead to their destruction.


    All the ns he could think was at most going to hurt them a bit but not something serious or irreparable.


    So he was in a bad mood these days, as every second he and hispany were experiencing loss, and probably an irreparable one at that.


    As he was sitting in his study, lost in thoughts of what to do, his study’s room was knocked.
