Chapter 25: KARL YANG
"What is his condition?" The man asked.
He was the same stunning creature, whose life was saved by Zeva a while ago.
Liam said, "He had gone unconscious as soon as he was taken to the car."
Karl nodded his head and said nothing.
Liam peeped at Karl, and on seeing that his mood looks normal, he continued further, "The strange girl there had beaten him so much, and he needs to be treated properly. That boy already had a weaker physic to begin with. And the beating made things more difficult. And so, questioning him with get delayed and will take time."
Karl nodded at his words again, as he took back the folder, and opened it. "That girl," he stated, and on hearing this Liam perked up his ears, and Karl said, "Dig out all the details about that girl. I want it by tonight."
And on his command, Liam hurriedly nodded his head, and pulled out his tablet to get on work. And as Karl said that, he took a fancy looking pen, and put his signature on a few papers there. 'Karl Yang'.

Lia sat on the bench of the school garden dangling her legs, sucking the lollipop, and enjoying the pleasant weather.
She was waiting for Zeva to return after completing her final paper work.
"Aww… who is this girl?" A girl swooningly asked. Lia turned to see that a group of boys and girls were coming towards her.
'Oh, I am going to be surrounded these people again. Sigh* It's so tough to be good. But it is alright, I am doing this world a favour by spreading my cuteness.' Lia thought in her mind.
"What is your name, little girl?" one of the boys asked.
"My name is Lia," Lia replied sweetly.
"She is so cute. Kira would have been this cute when she was young." Another boy said, not hiding the fact that he was flirting with a girl from among their group.
They were just talking about their own childhood incidents just now.
Lia looked at them, and judging from how they were wearing the school uniform, they were still the school students and not a pass out like Zeva.
"Oh, come on!" The girl named, Kira waved her hand at the boy who complimented her and laughed. It was evident that she was enjoying the attention provided by that guy.
Meanwhile, Little Lia rolled her eyes and sneered. Did the youngsters on Earth already forget on how to flirt, that now they are comparing a child to them? Whatever!
"Who are you here with, Lia?" Another girl asked her.
"I am here with my.."
"Lia!" Lia was about to answer when she heard Zeva call for her name. Zeva was done with her work.
Lia saw Zeva coming, and she jumped down the bench and padded towards her.
"Oh! That's senior Zeva." One of the girls said out loud.
Zeva nodded at her, and then looking back at Lia she said, "Come Lia, let's go home."
Lia nodded, but she noticed how Zeva did not want to continue the conversation much with these people.
Good for her, Lia thought. If she mingled more with these people who don't even know how to flirt, then Zeva's already less EQ and IQ would probably go to minus.
Zeva held her hand and was about to pass by them, when some said out loud, "Cousin Sister? Don't you want to talk to me even at the last day in school?" It was the girl named Kira.
"…"
"..!"
"…?!"
The group of people turned shocked at the revelation, and looked at Kira and then Zeva in shock.
The former school belle is the cousin of the current school belle, and they did not even know!
"Wow! Really? How come we did not know that, Kira? Even Senior Zeva never said anything about it?" one of them said.
Kira smiled with a sad face and said nothing and only shrugged. While, Zeva did not have much time to handle the drama here.
Looking at them with cold eyes, Zeva said, "Why? Am I a celebrity that you need to know these tiny, unimportant topics about me? Or you are someone important to me whom I have to share these details?"
"…"
Then looking at Kira she said, "And you? I only know you as my late father's brother's daughter. So, please stick to that."
Saying so, Zeva just wanted to get out of the circle. She definitely never understood why they had just proclaimed her as a school belle or any such thing. A few lot of times, Zeva would not even come to school. And whenever she did, she would not interact much with anyone.
She had the most introverted lifestyle. And she wouldn't even be surprised if people around her would think her to be deaf and mute.
Because when would she make friends at school? Her own life was a mess at that time. She was young, and new to the city, and was having trouble cooperating with the life here.
And then, the death of her grandmother came as a bigger troll, and now she had absolutely no one at all. So, the two years of her high school, she had mostly spent studing and learning her own living.
