Chapter 6

While we were walking down the hallway to the canteen, a familiar blonde hair was walking as well.

"Yo! Jake!" Michael yelled at him.

"Oh, look how it is. Isn't it Zen and Michael?" Jake spoke as he smacked my back.

"Hey, stop that!" I yelled at him while smacking his hand.

Jake Rothsfield, a blonde hair man who came from the prestigious Rothsfield family which controls most of the banks.

Their family is extremely prestigious and holds the most financial power, their financial power is extremely high that with one move, they can move alot of currencies.

In comparison, our dying family formerly controlled half of the information that comes and exits the country.

The Stoia downfall began a few years after moving outside from British, our branch was responsible for handling all information on the country.

Our households tend to be located in active neighbors therefore it can be noisy and we stand out alot in our area due to our house being one of the richest among the neighborhood.

Our branch holds parties in which we mostly use to gather information from neighbors nearby, we also send out some of the branch members into different neighborhoods.

Our downfall can be traced to the new policy from the Union of Nations in which enforces that information should be free.

Though, the policy has been discarded a year ago. The impact on our family was huge and we are still on the verge of recovery.

"Hey Zen, stop daydreaming!" Michael slapped my back.

"Eh! I wasn't." I retorted though I was.

"Let's find a seat first" Jake suggested to us.

We looked around and found a seat near the corner, though from expectations it should have been a quiet corner but with two of the campus idols on the same seat. It's a mess.

"I'll go order, what would you like?" Michael asked us both.

"I'll take vegetable salad" I said.

"I'll go take curry, thanks!" Jake said to Michael.

"Okay, I'll go now." Michael said as he went to order the foods.

It was a quiet time before Jake broke the silence.

"Hey Zen, have you wondered who Sia is? I mean a half-Japanese with weirdly high learning skills transferring late in the year with a unspecified reason." Jake asked me in a serious tone.

"I don't really know yet, I tried asking my parents and they just told me to not seek trouble." I told Jake as I shook my head.

"It is indeed suspicious, I wonder which heiress she is from to be able to force the Stoia Head family to keep quiet." Jake replied while holding his head with his right hand.

"Let's ignore it for now, time will tell." I replied in a tired manner.

"Yeah." Jake answered.

Soon, Michael arrived with the food and we started eating. It was a peaceful time, that is until a paper was found under the plate of Jake.

"Hey Zen, take a look at this." Jake showed the paper to me.

"Zen. Soon. Us. Together. X-0" is what was written on the paper.
