3 Alan Burke & Min Jae Ho

"There shouldn't be any guests today," Krei said.

Krei walked down the stairs and peeked into her house entrance. There is a silhouette of two men about 187cm tall and 170cm tall on the door. Krei was suspicious of the arrival of the two men, Krei felt it was a strange coincidence if defeated in hacking and uninvited guests came shortly after the hacker's message had been delivered.

After seeing dad open the door for them, Krei returns to her room and picks up her PSP. Krei wears her headphones and plays the game on the PSP while waiting. Krei estimated how long it would take for her father to call her.

"If they have nothing to do with me, dad won't call me. If there is something to do with me, dad will kick them out, without calling me. But, if this is as serious as I predicted, dad would call me to come down. It's probably going to take 40 minutes until reach that conclusion."

She continued her game. Then, after playing for 20 minutes, dad entered Krei's room and told her to go downstairs. Krei was annoyed that her prediction missed. In a bad mood, Krei comes down as her father commands.

Krei wears shorts and a shabby hoodie that she always used at home when she sees the two suspicious men. They introduced themselves, the first man who has a height of 170 cm named Alan Burke. This middle-aged man looks like a spokesman for the other one.

The second tall man looks like he doesn't talk much. His name is Min Jae Ho, looks around the same age as Krei but he has an intimidating aura and Krei dislikes it. Krei doesn't like intimidating people.

After the introduction, they sit together in the living room. Krei still holds the PSP in her hand and plays her games. Jae Ho is getting annoyed with what Krei is doing and reprimands her.

"Hey, would you stop that?" Jae Ho said.

Krei sees Jae Ho who has reprimanded her, then ignores him by continuing her game. Jae Ho looks annoyed and he looked at Alan.

Alan nods his head and Jae Ho picks up the tab from his bag. He tried to do something through the tab and started reading Krei's information.

"Kresleriana G Torvas, since birth has been blessed with one of the rare particles in her gene. You seem to have an incredible talent for music, and then you see instability in controlling abilities when you're 12 years old. "Melody catch" or receive information through hearing or we could say from the melody of living or dead objects. Because of that, everything you do looks abnormal and it's beyond the limits of the standard capabilities of ordinary humans. You don't want to keep being noticed like a freak, so you decide to hide your skills by doing stupid things like making your grades like any other normal child. But unfortunately, you can't get together with any of them." Jae Ho explains.

Krei is visibly annoyed by the detailed explanation she just heard, but she remains busy with her PSP. Jae Ho sees that and whispers something to Alan. Alan approves of what Jae Ho is suggesting. Jae Ho is busy with his tab once again.

Within seconds, Krei felt her PSP screen flashing. Krei knows what a man named Jae Ho is trying to do. She's smiled, "That's not going to work. I know what you're doing, Mr. Jae Ho," Krei said with a sharp stare.

Jae Ho stares at Krei angrily and at the same time, Alan laughed. Krei doesn't like Jae Ho, but Alan is the kind of person Krei avoids. From the very beginning, she saw it, a terrible and weird aura that Krei could feel from Alan.

People like Alan are unpredictable. Krei tries to ignore them and better expel them sooner the better. Krei finds the opportunity when Jae Ho tries to shut down her PSP through his Tab. However, Krei knows the way Jae Ho does it is difficult to do even for IT students, but it is old-fashioned for Krei. In fact, the hacking she experienced this afternoon is much complicated than this. This means previous hacking was not carried out by Jae Ho.

Alan laughs a little at Krei's arrogance and he gives a gesture by lifting all three of his fingers and Jae Ho continues something more complicated as seen from his facial expression.

"Kresleriana, it looks like we've been interrupting your time, I'll do it the usual way. We from Ingeniosus Snilldech Academy or ISA are aware and very interested in your abilities." Alan said.

"Ah, I've heard about that before. Then, do you know that you guys look very suspicious? In fact, even for someone like me," Krei said.

"Ah, that's our trademark. We are all weird people in ISA, so it's just natural to be suspicious." Alan says with a chuckle.

Krei turned off her PSP and put it in her pocket. She took off her hood and asked, " 'We', huh... I know what is your intention here but I can't believe you choose such a disrespectful way to get this done. Actually, who are you? I understand if you make an offer or whatever, but you don't have to bring this many audiences." Krei said while staring intently at Alan.

At that moment Alan was amazed because of what Krei had noticed.
