"Hello, Dominique. Don't make any sound, just listen to me." Stairmount starts. "I want to warn you. Be careful, it seems that the Saturn government has installed a bug in your official residence. Check every angle in your residence very carefully. After that, let me know what you've got."

He closes his ultra-cyber minipad, and dials another team member's number. To tell them the same thing he has instructed to Dominique.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡex5bEAuCE1
Right after Stairmount dials Pamela as the last member he contacts, a call comes from Dominique. Stairmount picks his minipad up.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj48L4CZgk7
"Stairmount, I don't find any bugs at all. My house is safe."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqRNqtdG6S
"Have you checked it properly? They mustn't put it in an easy-to-find place for certain. Look for it once again."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jmm6yZnvj
"But I've finished searching on the entire house."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPs9OIplWZ
"How about the back of the cupboard, or the area under the couch? Have you looked for it yet?"
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQvqyNN0Ck
"Ah, I've not yet searched for it there! I'll check it again!"
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPG653k2GQ
Stairmount exhales a tired sigh. This is indeed what he is worried about; his team members are only brilliant at health sciences, but for everything else, they are goose eggs. Even worse, the others also give the same information as Dominique gave, and it only makes him even more nervous.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmXcHoTRAl
He finds Pamela, the only woman on his team member, calls him. As expected, she also gives the same response. "No bugs in my house, Stairmount."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4RYcWVwNX
And as he did before, Stairmount asks, "Have you observed the places which are quite hidden?"
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTDx7WTuF2
"Yes. I have followed the ways of those spy movies; I've looked beneath the sofa, behind the cupboards, into the plant pots, and up to the ceiling of the house, but I find nothing!"
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CrJELHPuB
Not expecting to hear a different answer, Stairmount insists, "You are certain that your house is really safe?"
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1bf2OYLKw
"Totally safe."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9ecgRGYMd
"Well then." Stairmount says again. "Okay, we can take a relieved breath now. Have a good rest."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGr0l7Xtc5k
Shortly after he closes the ultra-cyber minipad, another member of his team contacts him, also to provide the same information.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSrr1yKUnT
"I even browsed the internet about the locations where bugs are usually installed. I've followed their instructions, but I can't find anything," Calvin reports in detail.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWvDJC6PA3
"Okay then, your house is safe. We may rest assured." Then Stairmount disconnects the ultra-cyber minipad.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmrVWaP4G5
The result of his conversation with the five members of his team ignites mixed feelings of anger and confusion inside Stairmount's mind at the same time. He feels angry, because he makes a correct guess, Saturn government only discredits him, and not the others. And confused - he must be confused, after all. Why is the Saturn government so antipathy to me? If they hate Jupiter, then they should have had entire official residences of the delegation team bugged. But, why do they only do this in my house? What the heck is going on here? What is their real purpose? Or do... they know? They know about Chrono's evil plan? About Sierra Pathogen???...

Once again, Stairmount looks heavenward, to the ceiling. His eyes flash intensely, and the corners of his mouth are tightly shut.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Lor3fezNp
He cannot lose to his opposition. Because this all concerns the lives of his parents.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pGLQiaLTx
He has to win. Whatever happens.

That person is twirling the pen inside their left finger, their eyes are busy looking at their flying transparent screen which has just suddenly turned black. They clicks their right finger, as a sign of doing a rewind. Soon, the flying transparent screen shows the scene before the screen changes color.

"Ha, you said, your father defends Saturn so intensely. But now what are you doing instead?" They keeps observing the screen showing the angry Stairmount was yelling many cursing words to release his infuriation towards Saturn's representative team. "You instead stab your ancestral country in the back. As you said, we do hate you more than those foreign bastards. They are foreigners after all, not of the same blood as us, so it's understandable that they are mean to us. But you. You have Saturnian blood, same as ours, but you become that bastard's minion instead, and stab us in the back. The allegory is the same as that of the parents getting betrayed by their son. Of course, it hurts us much more, Schynn Rivers."

They turns off the cyber screen. And now looking at a sheet of paper. Which turns out to be a complete identity sheet regarding Stairmount.
