Chapter 154

Toby was deep in thought before he suddenly looked up at Xandar and asked, “Do you have a super large map, my K-. Scratch that. Xandar. Xandar, do you have a huge map with no sentimental value that we can scribble on?”

Xandar rose from his seat and headed for his office storage room while uttering, “I’m not sure. Let me have a look.”

Christian got up as well and headed for the door while saying, “I’ll check your basement, cuz.” Upon hearing that, Tate, Zeke and Zelena followed the Duke to help him look.

Xandar found one rolled up but it was very faded. Christian and the others came back with three. His cousin then helped Toby pin the best map on the flip side of the whiteboard.

When the map was up, Lucianne caught up to where her best friend was going with things. Toby saw the knowing glint in her eye, and tossed her a marker with a smile and said, “Give me a hand, Lucy. This will b e done faster. Hey, Raden! Heads-up!” Toby then threw another marker in Raden’s way, and the latter caught it with ease before getting up from his seat to join his friends at the board.

Toby then explained to everyone else, “Basically, what we’re going to do is cross out all the locations that the rogue Lycan gave the police. Since the task force found nothing but demolished sites, it is likely that the rogues would not return to those locations, at least not in the near future. Then, we’ll analyse the remaining locations on the map. Having to keep such a large corporation alive, it would be somewhere with water supply for survival, good reception for communication but discreet enough to keep themselves off the radar.”

“Damn, they’re good.” Christian muttered in awe.

The three Gammas divided the map into three parts. One of their hands held the 70-page report, and the other held a marker. One by one, they crossed out the locations given by the rogue. After that, they stood aside and everyone studied the unmarked spaces.

“Time to narrow it down.” Raden muttered.

Lucianne began, “This one has no rivers or any nearby water supply. It’s out.” She marked a cross over the location.

that was how it went for the next few minutes. Everyone gave a reason for why they think a particular spot on the map would not be strategic to set up the rogue’s headquarters. With more crosses on the map, their line of vision converged easily on the portions which were still spared from the markers. What they found was that those probable locations were not

It’s worse because we now know that they have hackers, meaning that security communications in the police force can very well be compromised. Your very own instructions to them may be accessible by the rogues themselves. It’d be better if the wolves scouted these sites since requests and instructions are sent through mind-links, and I doubt they have
