Ero Meter



Jack furrowed his brows as he looked at the paper. He was on the letter 'V' and the first letter of the man was still flashing red on the sheet of paper.

Now only four letters were left.

'If this doesn't work then I will need to ask some better questions or find some other way to catch that guy.'

Jack thought and moved his gaze from the letter 'V' to 'W' and he was about to scroll past it too, however just as he saw 'W' his truth panel started flashing green.

So the first name of the preparator starts with 'W', Jack didn't know many names that started with 'W'.

'Let's go for the second letter.'

He opened the other page and was about to write something when he remembered something and changed his question.

'How many characters are in the preparator behind the Clown incident's first name has?'

He wrote the question.

He first wanted to know how many characters does the name has.

As it would make more sense to get the name after that.

And he would have a direction to get the name, otherwise, he just might find the name aimlessly.

'It would be good if I get the number of characters first, it would make more sense.' Jack thought and started writing the options.

He wrote the numbers from one to ten, as names with more words than ten are rare and if he didn't find the name in ten letters then he would write till twenty.

He had rarely heard of people with a name of more than ten words, although both first name and surname might be more than ten letters, he was asking for the first name.

It would be quite funny or surprising for him if the name of the person behind the wooden puppet had twenty letters in his first name.

Jack might not even take the person seriously if his name is of twenty letters.

After writing down the options, Jack started scanning through them.

He knew that it would be pointless to scan option one, as he didn't know anyone with just one letter in their name.

However, he still scanned through it as he didn't wanna take the risk.

And just as he expected the first option flashed red.

He then moved to the number two and it also flashed red.

'Number three is also red.'

His eyes then moved from number three to number four and surprisingly this time it flashed green.

'Hmm... So the name is four words and starts with 'W''

Jack contemplated if he knew someone like this and after giving it some thought his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

'Mr Wang.' A name suddenly popped up in his head.

Mr Wang is the security guard of the previous apartment he lived in and Jack had a very good relationship with him.

He used to offer Mr Wang beer many times while he lived in the apartments and they were almost like friends.

'No way, it's Mr Wang. He would never do such a thing and if he had powers like this then he wouldn't just be a security guard.'

Jack dispelled his doubts, although he knew the first letter and the number of letters it didn't mean that it would be Mr Wang.

According to Jack, Mr Wang was a good and Jolly guy, what reason he would have to trouble Jack, and how would a person like him get such power in the first place.

Jack shook his head and flipped to the next page to find out the second letter of the culprit's name.

And this time he was shocked too, as just in the first option the panel flashed green.

'So the second letter of the name is 'A' how strange.'

Jack gulped his saliva, he knew that Mr Wang's second letter was also A.

'Is it really him?'

Jack quickly flipped to the next page and his heart started beating faster.

And the next word stopped on 'N'.

Jack leaned on the sofa staring at the three letters he had deduced.

He turned silent for a few seconds and only after some contemplation he moved to the next page.

'Is it Mr Wang the old guard, that is behind the clown wooden puppet that attacked me today?'

Jack made the question as specific as he could.

In his subconscious, he thinks that it can't be Mr Wang, however, the evidence was clear in front of him.

He believed in the power of Ero Meter, it had never been wrong.

He also wrote two options.

'A. Yes.

B. No.'

He then moved his eyes to the first option and then he gulped his saliva.

The panel flashed green in front of him.

"Mr Wang?" Jack closed his eyes and remembered the old and kind face in front of him.

'Why would he ever try to harm me?' He took in a deep breath.

"Mr Wang? Who is that?" As he was contemplating, suddenly Elma's voice broke him out of his stupor, Jack closed the notebook and turned his head around to look at her.

She was already dressed again, her gracious body covered by a red one-piece, and her smooth white skin was glistening with soft water dew and her luscious lips begged for him to kiss them.

Jack smiled looking at her and stood up. "It's no one." He said.

He didn't want to involve Elma in this matter, there were already too many people involved.

The first one is him, and then Cassie and even Nicole are involved.

He didn't wanna endanger Elma too as it would be hard to protect so many people.

Elma also didn't bother him too much as he didn't care about Mr Wang, neither did she know him and if Jack didn't wanna tell her then it was ok for her.

She loved Jack for who he was and how he treated her, she didn't want to bother his personal life too much.

She wanted him to stay with her and love her and she knew that interfering too much in his personal life would not be good.

He might even start to hate her and she didn't want that to happen, she adored him.

"Let's go." Elma held his hand and pulled him towards the door.

Jack nodded and moving his hand away from her, he picked up his mobile and the notebook and the pen.

He then moved behind her and both of them moved toward the parking.

Soon enough Elma left him outside the mansion door.

Jack kissed her goodbye and entered the mansion, inside the living area he saw both Cassei and Susan talking with each other while the TV was on in the background.

They were chatting happily and loudly as if they were friends for a long time. A smile broke out on Jack's face as he saw both of them.

When they saw Jack coming, Susan stood up while Cassie stayed seated.

Susan had a blush on her face as she moved towards Jack, she remembered the words that Jack had told her before he went out.

He said that he wouldn't let her sleep tonight.

"I see that you have made a new friend." Jack placed his hand on her back and there was a smile on his face.

Cassie looked at them and also moved towards Jack.

"Results of the mid-term test are out." Cassie stood in front of him with a jealous expression on her face.

"I don't care about it." Jack chuckled.

"Hmph... You are such a bad guy, I thought you got lucky on your first test!" Cassie lightly punched his shoulder.

Susan on the other hand looked at Jack proudly. She was happy for him.

"What rank did I get?" Jack remembered leaving a few questions so he didn't get the first rank, so he thought that he would get around fourth or fifth rank.

"First..." Susan murmured as she placed her hair behind her ear.

When Cassie heard her words, it was as if someone hit her nerve and she snorted again.

"You will be my tutor from now on!" She said and turned around. "And we need to organize a party for your first rank." She said again.

"First rank?" Jack furrowed his brows. Even after leaving ten questions blank, he was ranked first, 'Looks like the paper was hard this time.' He thought and sighed.

He didn't wanna attract too much attention to his academics, because, in reality, he didn't know too much about the subject, and if in the future if someone took his cheat away then he wouldn't be able to back up his knowledge with his results.

However, he still wanted to get some good results, fourth or fifth rank would be enough for him.

After taking for bit more, they waited for Nicole, however she didn't came even at nine in the evening.

"Should we call her?" Cassie looked at Jack with a worried expression. She cared about Nicole and had made friends with her and she knew that Nicole left the house in anger.

Jack listened to Cassie and nodded. He was also worried for Nicole.

He took out his phone and called Nicole. And soon enough she picked up the call and just as she did so Jack sighed in relief.

From the other side of phone came her sweet voice.

"Where are you?" Jack asked.

"So you finally remembered me?" Nicole asked with an annoyed voice.

"Where are you?" He asked again, he first wanted to make sure that she was ok.

"Hmph... Just outside the mansion road, I am coming."
