Lab

The lab was cold and silent. It was covered in the unknown touch of a scientist.

Ray opened the door. He quickly walked over to the computer and said. " Diane. Take out my lab coat project blueprint. "

The screen turned on and revealed a blueprint. It was a long white coat. But the fibres were made from metal. It worked like his mask but was thinner and flexible.

Ray nodded. " Order the machine to build the sewing machine. You know the one. "

The machine which was standing beside the computer came to life and went on building. Ray tapped the computer and checked all the laser gun locations.

There were about 100 in the city. He didn't have a satellite to see the city map but the radio wave emitting from the gun was enough to make the rough map.

He overlapped this rough map onto the one he downloaded from the internet. It showed the location of the building.

Most like Rigoletto's places.

' Now I have the control over Rigo. I just need to talk with him and kill all the others. I don't think this would turn into an annoying problem. Wish I could just kill Rigo from the start and take over his business. '

' But again. I do not know the gang businesses. I just want resources and a place to work. '

Ray sighed.

He looked at the machine and nodded his head. It was working fine. In three hours, the lab coat would be finished.

He leaned onto the chair and closed his eyes. He could still feel blood on his hand. The blood of Gwen.

' I hope she lives. '

That thought disappeared when his mind wandered into the space stone.

' Once I get the space stone, I will be able to make dark matter liquid and space equation. With the dark matter energy and understanding of space, I will be able to crack this universe with the portal gun. '

' Then, I can try to relocate my universe using my consciousness. '

Ray let out a small sigh. " Too much work for a man trying to reach his home. "

He fell asleep.

Minutes had passed. The world moved.

The news showed the shooting accident in the mall. Police Capain's daughter was injured. Her situation was life-threatening. Doctors were trying their best.

Police were finding the culprit of the shooting. One boy at the age of 17 was missing as well.

" Come. "

A mutter.

" Come to me. "

A louder mutter.

Somevoice. Someone was calling him. For how long?

Ray swam out of sleep.

First, he glanced at the screen and saw it was a default wallpaper. Who was calling him?

He grabbed his head in confusion. No matter how stressed he got he couldn't be that worse. He knew reality and he clearly heard a voice.

" Did anyone enter the building, Diane? " Ray asked.

[ No. But Mason is waiting in the car.]

Ray stressed his back. The bone cracked.

He stood up and walked over to the sewing machine. It was done and now it was making the lab coat.

' Anti booby trap suit will be done. '

' Now, I need to make another AI capable of entering any system. '

The night had come. Ray wore the lab coat and the mask. He also wore his watch. Although it was old and useless compared to these other tools, he still wore it.

Because it was his first creation.

He walked inside the car and ordered Mason to drive.

There were no stars in the sky. Damn, the light pollution.

On the way, Ray spoke.

" Mason, I am going to be your boss. "

" What do you mean, Ray? "

" There won't be Rigo in the future. No more gangs in the street. Just me and my name. " Ray rolled down the window and looked at the Hell kitchen.

" See this lawless place. I find it interesting that people were aiming at my head because I created a mere gun for them. They didn't know the full picture of my ability. Rigo is useless. He should be able to win over others. "

Ray cleared his mouth and continued. " But he is too slow. The result was the damage to me. "

Mason looked in the mirror and asked. " So you will kill Rigoletto. "

Ray shook his head. " Not kill. I am not a cold-blooded man. But it depends on him honestly. I will share my view, Mason. "

" The world is vast. There are an infinite number of universes. That means–."

" I have an infinite future. Everything I do doesn't matter in the grand view. " Mason ended Ray's speech.

Ray nodded.

" Then, why are you wasting your time on this? If nothing matters then, death would be the only thing that matters right? " Mason asked.

Ray laughed. " Nothing matters. But I view myself as higher than I thought. In the same way, I interact with others. Because I matter more. "

" So it is all inside your head trying to justify the murder. "

Ray nodded. " Something like that. I could kill the whole city and put my guilt into the infinite universe. Then I can get closure for my crime. Saying to myself, I am not the worst, I am just one of them. "

" That is a pretty fuck up way of thinking. " Mason said.

" You run away from the problem. Blame yoursothersther. My nanny would scold you. "

Ray chuckled. " Your nanny is a good woman. "

Mason parked the car in front of the house. Two men stood at the gate wearing the laser guns attached to their necks.

Ray smiled. Mason took out a black card and showed the two guards.

" I will guide you, sir. " Mason said.
