Resurrecting the Genius Within (Calypso Rain) novel Chapter 418

Chapter 418 Trap 

Isabelle dragged Moon Shadow upstairs

A drone flew ahead and scouted the path. They walked for a while without encountering anyone

The drone stopped in front of a door, seemingly having found something 

Isabelle shot the electronic lock on the door and kicked it open. Then she pushed Moon Shadow inside

The room looked normal

Isabelle walked in after him

The room was large and luxuriously decorated with various hightech gadgets, Isabelle moved around the room. Suddenly. She took a painting off the wall and gently tapped on the wall behind it. Nothing unusual

Moon Shadow surveyed the room and wondered, Was this Clubs room

He looked at Isabelle, who was searching for something in the room

After a few minutes, Isabelle sat down at the desk, perhaps tired from her search

Someone set up a chess board in front of her

Black surrounded the white chess pieces. It was a completely losing game. Isabelle stared at the board

The silence permeated the room

Moon Shadow watched her curiously

After a moment, she moved a white chess piece. She moved the piece, and the table turned

The game transformed from a deadlock to a winning position

As the white chess piece clicked into place, a mechanism within the board triggered. The wall opposite the desk split open, revealing a silver metal door

Moon Shadow was shocked. He couldn’t help but look at Isabelle

Isabelle walked up to the door. It had two combination locks, like those on a secure safe

Isabelle pulled a pair of headphones from her backpack

It had been modified. The headphones had a special metal device on the cord that occasionally flashed a red light

The USB plug had a stethoscope/like carpiece

Isabelle put on the headphones and placed the earpiece against the metal door next to the lock. She then slowly turned the combination lock

The carpiece clearly transmitted the sound of gears turning inside the lock

Chapter 418 Trop 

The drone’s camera allowed Tony, sitting in the car, to see everything happening in the room

Tony asked, Will this work?” 

The robot replied, I trust my honey.” 

Tony was rendered speechless

I really don’t want to hear this robot talking. The boss’s voice calling Honeyin my ear is creepy

Tony then asked, Did your honey tell you what she’s looking for? What’s in that secret room?” 

The robot replied, Foolish human.” 

Tony was stunned. He retorted, Did you just insult me? A mere robot?

The robot replied, Honey said there are secrets in there.” 

Tony remembered, Oh, right

We haven’t seen a soul so far. I have this uneasy feeling, like something’s about to happen.” 

Before Tony could finish, Isabelle stopped turning the lock

Finished 

The next moment, the heavy metal door slid open. Tony was about to cheer for her, but then a thick white. smoke billowed out from the opening

Isabelle quickly held her breath and retreated, but she was a moment too late

With just a small breath, Isabelle’s vision went black

George’s voice came through the Bluetooth earpiece, asking, Honey, what happened? Honey?There was 

no response

Tony saw Isabelle collapse and panic

Moon Shadow held his breath as the smoke cleared. He saw a control room reveal itself behind the door

Clearly, Isabelle had guessed correctly. This castle held many secrets

Footsteps approached, and the castle’s master finally appeared

Moon Shadow greeted the newcomer respectfully, Master.” 

They cut the ropes binding him, shot down the drone, and sent it crashing near Isabelle
