The Human Giant



Yoze frowned at Jasmine's declaration of the case being solved. Even though he knew that she was right from her perspective but as the client, this is not even close to what he wanted.

"I appreciate everyone's work on the investigation but this is hardly a satisfying ending. From what I know as the client is that I hired you to find two people. And after a month you have claimed that you have found them but you don't know where they are. This can't be considered a successful case." 

"Is that what you think? We have proof that we found them." Jasmine said.

"If you have proof that they have been found I'm willing to pay to continue the investigation for you to help me catch them or at least meet them." Knowing that keeping the investigation alive was the best way to catch his targets Yoze told them up front that he was willing to pay.

"Unfortunately we don't do this kind of service. I can tell you their last location. As for you meeting them, that isn't our concern or our expertise." Jasmine quickly denied Yoze's request without further consideration.

"I understand. I would appreciate having their last location and all the information that you have collected so I can hire someone else to catch them," Yoze said, a bit disappointed that they were so close to meeting them but missed at the last second.

"That's fine, we have already prepared a package of the information. As for their location, I can take them there right now. If you are lucky they might still be in the area and you can catch them." 

"Then what are we waiting for let's go." Yoze's eyes shined with hope.

"Maybe this talent will be of some use in finding them." Yoze thought as he copied Jasmine's talent.

It took around an hour to travel to the east side of the city where Jasmine said that they were spotted yesterday. The building that they previously stayed at wasn't in good shape and had been labeled by the city with red x's showing that were marked to be removed and renovated.

They didn't enter the building since there was a low chance that they were still inside. Instead, they walked into a coffee shop that was nearby and observed the place to see if they could find anyone matching his father's kids' description.

"Do you see that man and woman dressed in black, right there? Those two are who you are looking for."  Jasmine had a surprised look on her face as she pointed out two people that were walking toward the coffee shop.

"Are you sure that this is them?" Though Yoze didn't doubt her he couldn't help but confirm since he had never seen his two supposed siblings before.

"100 percent your luck is simply unbelievable." Jasmine couldn't help but marvel at the chances that as soon as they arrived these two decided it was time to come confront them.

Just as Jasmine predicted the two people dressed in black entered the coffee shop and beelined for them. When they arrived the two groups looked at each other with interest.

"Since your targets have made themselves known I will be leaving." As a detective in training, Jasmine was aware that she should never try to stay any longer than she needed to when it came to her clients.

The two people suspected to be Yoze's father's children allowed Jasmine leave and took a seat across Yoze and Jewel before taking off their covers to reveal their faces. Looking at their appearance Yoze was surprised to find out that they looked young and even looked like they haven't aged a bit after turning twenty-five. 

"That shouldn't be right." Yoze's mind questioned their age since they should have looked older. But other than their age they matched his father's description of them perfectly. 

The man in black should be his father's son, Dreyer Thunder. He had brown hair and brown eyes, and he also always looked like he was planning to play a prank on someone.

The lady should be the eldest sibling and his father's daughter, Tiki Thunder. She lacked her brother's brown hair and had black hair which matched her mother's. She had crystal brown eyes that looked like they could see through a person's lies.

"Are you two Tiki and Dreyer, daughter and son of Drew Thunder?"  Yoze asked to confirm their identities.

"Why are you following us?" Instead of answering his question, they asked their question.

"Your father is about to die and he wanted to see you one last time," Yoze said calmly. 

He noticed that when he mentioned his Father's death there was clear sadness on their faces before they tried their best to hide it. Seeing that they cared for their father, Yoze couldn't help but feel happy for his father and he tossed them an invitation.

"He is currently staying at Ten Ton Inn in room 302. You should come to visit him when you have the time."

Dreyer sighed before saying, "We will think about it. There are just too many things that we have to deal with right now." 

"I see," Yoze nodded his head understanding but his hands had already grabbed both Dreyer's and Tiki's collars and lifted them to their shock.

"Hey what are you doing let us go!?"

"Were you just using our father's name to gather us? What do you want with us?" In contrast to Dreyer's panic, Tiki was much more composure and still tried to get out information from Yoze.

"Don't bother resisting, I'm just taking you to see your father. He doesn't have much time and I don't want to wait for you to get your things settled and waste his precious time." Yoze picked up the two adults like chickens and made his way out of the coffee shop.

Jewel who was also there sighed as she paid for their meal and quickly followed behind. She was already so used to Yoze's personality that she knew that he wasn't really inviting them to come to visit. Regardless of their answer, he was going to bring them along whether they came willingly or not.
