Am I in a movie? Bakit parang ang surreal ng mga nangyayari? I cannot even fanthom this happening to me. Most couples live their life happily, pero bakit sa akin hindi nagkatotoo iyon? Am I cursed? Hindi ko ba deserve and mahalin? These questions have been running in my mind for many laps. Matapos kong ipanganak si Lurixia, hindi ko akalain na ganito ang magiging turing ni Francisco, ang kanyang ama, sa kanya.

He believes that the first born and heir of the mafia must be a boy. Sinadya niyang patayin si Lurixia, buti nalang at may nalaman siya tungkol kay Lurixia na hindi niya dapat malaman. Then, he blurted out things. That, he made me drink drugs that are not yet official. In short, ginawa niya akong test subject. But, in the end he succeeded. Kaya hindi niya pinaslang si Lurixia.

Sinubukan kong umalis sa tirahan ni Francisco. Ngunit hindi madaling makaalis sa impyernong iyon. CCTV cameras are placed all over the mansion, and guards are guarding the possible exits. The walls are high at walang mapaga-akyatan dito. First, gumawa ako ng mission na hoax. Para isama nila ako dahil sa aking abilidad na kailangan para sa misyon. It was hard to convince them at first, dahil ipinagbabawal akong lumabas, but my sixth sense is needed.

I tricked the guards. Kumaripas ako ng takbo mula sa venue patungong Tantei High. Hideo, naomi... the atama family. They are there to help me. Kung tutuusin mas malakas pa sila kesa sa buong mafia. I need their help, my daughter is in danger.

Years after I came back, Tantei High both improved in strength and agility. Nakita ko ang members ng iba't-ibang family and their training are so different from before. They're taking it seriously na parang depende ito sa buhay nila.

Sa pagtutuon ko ng pansin ng tatlong oras sa kanilang page-ensayo. I knew how they can beat Francisco. Sure, even Hideo can beat him with just one attack. But, alam kong sa oras na mababasa ito nila Hideo, they would also improved lalo na't kasabwat nila ang isang Scientist mula sa Italia, si Will Petrarch.

"Will Petrarch? Narinig ko na ang pangalan na 'yan." sabi ni Darwin na tahimik na nagmamasid sa kwarto, "He's one of the best scientists in the whole world at specialty niya ang pagmo-modify ng animals. But, he's included in one mysterious case. Isang araw, he died. Kung saan natagpuan ang body niya, no trace was seen."

"Paano mo nalaman yan?" tanong ni Miss Reina at inayos ang kanyang uniporme.

"Miss, lahat makikita na sa social media sites ngayon." saad ni Darwin at nagpatuloy sa pagmamasid sa mga paintings ng abandonadong basement. Imbes na tumayo tayo siya dyan bakit hindi niya kaya kami tulungang mag-decode?

"We could use some help," ani ni Ken na kanina pa hinahawakan ang kanyang ulo. He seems tired, no.. he is tired. Kanina pa kami nagde-decode dito ang 50 out of 107 pages pa lang kami. Kalahati palang.

"Kaya niyo na yan." sabi ni Darwin. "Tinatamad ako."

Napa-facepalm ako sa sinabi niya. I think he would compliment us na sasabihin na we are the Atama family and a simple decoding won't beat us or he will say an excuse para hindi mag-decode. But, Darwin... nakasalalay na ang buhay ng mag tao and he said na tinatamad siya. Heol.

"With the looks on your faces, think of what I said as a joke at magsisimula na po akong mag-decode, Madames and Sirs."

Lurixia is the seventh agent. Alam ko, dahil ang first born child ko ay ang ku-kumpleto sa pitong gagamit ng seventh sense matapos ng henerasyon nila Hideo. I tattoed a butterfly symbol in her body when she was a child, bago ako umalis. A 9 month old baby getting a tattoo, it's fine for her to cry but nung tinatato ko ito sa kanya she didn't even flinch. A evidence that she is indeed.. strong.
