Chapter 225
“Thanks for the intel “Josie tossed a handful of White Rabbit candies onto the counter. I love a good gossip session. If you hear anything else, hit me up. Consider this your finder’s fee”
The receptionist beamed as she scooped up the sweets. Thanks, Ms. Quinn!”
Josie pulled Zane aside to a quiet corner. Her voice dropped to a whisper. “Something is off with June. She’s our way in. We need to divide and conquer”
Tll tail June. You go dig up everything you can on the people who’ve gone missing. I want to know exactly who they were–find a patteri.”
“Meet me back here in two days.”
“Got it,” Zane said with a firm nod. They split up immediately.
Meanwhile.
June and Cyrus stepped into a private room, the door clicking shut behind them.
June handed Cyrus a list. “These girls are easy targets. I’ve already vetted them. They’re either the black sheep of their families, orphans, or they work late shifts and walk home alone. Nobody will miss them.”
Cyrus took the list, his eyes mocking as he looked her over. “I told you I didn’t need your help, yet here you are, doing my dirty work for me. You’re human, too, June Aren’t you afraid I’ll turn on you next?”
“I’m not,” June said, a cold, sharp smile playing on her lips. “As long as I’m useful to you, you won’t touch me. Like I said, Cyrus–we make a great team. I’m going to help you crush Josie once and for all.”
“You really are a devious bitch,” Cyrus remarked.
TI take that as a compliment.”
“Fine. I’ll take the list.” Cyrus glanced at the names and locations. With a flick of his wrist, the paper disintegrated into grey ash, vanishing into thin air.
“I look forward to your next rank–up. I hope you get what you want soon,” June said. “By the way, I got word that Josie just entered the base. She’s definitely gunning for you. You’d better watch your back.”
“You might not be afraid of her yet, but the girl is a psycho. She’s like a rabid dog she’ll bite anything that moves.”
“Besides, if my cover gets blown, I can’t exactly keep scouting targets for you, can I?”
“Oh?” Cyrus played along, though he’d known the second Josie set foot in the base.
Psychic Supers were a different breed. Whether they were human or Undead, their senses were tuned to a higher frequency than everyone else’s.
Josie’s aura was so overwhelming, so aggressive–there was no way Cyrus wouldn’t have picked up on it.
After all, in this entire base, they were the only two who could be called true powerhouses.
Just be careful,” June said. “I’m out.”
June glanced around, paranoid. No one was watching. She spun around and slipped into the crowd, gone in seconds,
What June didn’t know was that Josie was right there, eyes locked on her from the shadows.
Tailing someone didn’t mean staying on their heels.
All Josie had to do was ask the greenery.
Lirio didn’t just talk to mutant flora; it could tap into regular plants too.

Everything, outside was frozen solid, plants shriveled from the cold.
But inside People were secretly growing potatoes and yams near their
space
Where there was heat, things grew
Pinpointing lune and Cyrus was a cakewalk for Josie,
heaters.
