Bored Gamer in Other Worlds

"Can you take me to Mrs. Cole please?" When the police woman heard these words, there was an extreme compulsion that moved her into action.

She could not explain what happened but her body just automatically moved on its own.

Before she knew it, the police woman was already standing before her superiors who were around a crying middle aged woman whose face was filled with worry and fear.

"What are you doing here, Police Officer Gill?"

"And who is that little boy behind you?" A police detective asked with a big frown on him. If this was any other place, he would have no doubt berated his junior more.

"That... I also don't know how..." Police Officer Karina Gill blinked her pretty eyes as she tried to find the right words to say at this moment.

Luckily for her, the real culprit of this situation came to save her just in time.

"Ehem... I am Barry Fool and I am here to find the missing girl in one piece." Clark said in a confident voice but everyone around him wore a face of skepticism and worse.

This was nothing short of absurd in the eyes of all these adults.

"Take this boy away from here, Police Officer Gill!" The police detective raised his voice in response.

"Yes, Detective Russell!" Karina nodded and was about to take our bored gamer's hand and lead him away from the scene.

Sadly, Clark was not about to give up that easily, especially now that he was already here.

Our good gamer sidestepped with amazing agility and then delivered more convincing words to the tall people around him.

"I have come at the behest of Mrs. Cole. If she does not want to see her daughter tonight then I will have to hear these words from her and nobody else."

Our avid gamer said as he looked directly at the stunned middle aged woman nearby.

"What nonsense! Get the boy out!" Detective Russell said in a stern voice. On the other hand, Clark was already counting the seconds in his mind.

He knew that no one could resist what his presence entailed on a very concerned mother.

One.

Two.

Three.

"WAIT!" Mrs. Cole shouted and immediately came onto the stage. She got closer at once and almost hugged our bored gamer in both anxiety and relief.

In her eyes, this little boy held an absolute answer to all the uncertainties that surrounded her tonight.

"Are you really sure that you can find my daughter for me?"

Mrs. Cole asked in a trembling voice as she grasped tightly at the hope and miracle that our bored gamer represented in his presence.

"A lesser man may crumble and not give you any assurance but I'm different from those crooked swindlers. Barry Fool Paranormal Investigation is legit and I promise to bring your daughter back safe and well before this night ends!"

Clark announced which astounded the majority of his listeners.

"Please! I'll give you anything you want! Just bring my daughter back to me!"

Mrs. Cole was sobbing once more and it could be seen how she really loved her daughter at this epic display of emotional outburst.

"Okay then. But first things first. You will need to wire my money in this account. One million gems please." Clark replied alongside his account number next.

This earned him the outrage of the man of the house.

"GET THE FUCKING HELL OUT OF HERE!" Mr. Cole roared in great disbelief.

One should know that the kidnappers did not even contact them for any amount of money but here was this thin and small fraud who had the audacity to ask for one fucking million gems!

Mr. Cole would hammer his head first before he agreed to this absurd demand.

"Shut up to me, Hugo! If you don't want to pay for our daughter's safety then let me do it with my money!" Mrs. Cole openly scolded her husband.

"Honey, i..." Mr. Hugo Cole looked like a tamed puppy but his wife was not anymore looking at him in consequence.

Mrs. Cole tinkered with the phone in her hands and in but several minutes, the money arrived in full towards our bored gamer's account.

Although Clark could do this for free but he would not be a real detective if he did that in the end. After all, even legendary detectives needed to eat in this world.

"I have one more thing to tell you before we begin our search, Mrs. Cole." Our bored gamer informed.

"What is it, Barry?" Mrs. Cole frowned. There was a sense of urgency in her stare and it was obvious that she wished to see her daughter now more than ever.

"Ahhh... Nothing too hard. I just want to say that I will have to stream my investigation online." Clark said his last request.

"Are you stupid, little child?! Once the kidnappers will see that we're hot on their tails, there would be greater risk for Isabel's safety! Do you want her to die? You little piece of shhh..."

Police Detective Russell roared but he was ignored by our very own protagonist.

"I bear full responsibility and guarantee that Isabel will not be harmed at all." Clark stated calmly.

"Need i remind you Mrs. Cole that this monkey show is beyond our jurisdiction. We will not be held accountable for any screw ups that may happen later on."

Detective Russell washed his hands from this whole ordeal. There was a moment of silence before Mrs. Cole decided for them all.

"You already spent 5 hours in finding my daughter and you still have no clue on where she is."

"I'll take any gamble in order to see Isabel again." Mrs. Cole responded and her eyes were filled with determination thereafter.

Her decision was made up and so she would also be brave enough to face its consequences.

"You have not chosen wrongly, Mrs. Cole. Come. It's time for us to get your daughter back." Clark smiled and thought of the myriad ways on how to deliver on his promise.
