Falling In Love : I Love You, Today And Forever Chapter 343
Advertisement
Ivy was horrified by her own assumptions. If what she thought was true, then this place was surely illegal. She now understood why the meeting was scheduled here. That was because this place was the temporary storage house for the organs before got shipped to who knows where.
To believe that Ivy was happy to be in a food package factory made her stomach churn. 'Why did I even think about eating food packed here?' She scolded herself and now her appetite had also committed suicide immediately after the realization had hit her. So, she gave up eating her sandwiches.
Just like her, even Ronnie and Kaito had lost their appetites. So, they too gave up eating the food in their hands, although it looked delicious. They handed the box back to Ivy and the girl took it back without any questions. She understood how they were feeling right now as she too was in the same condition.
The three people sat in silence waiting to see what would happen next and not a minute had passed when they heard a loud creak. The two guards had opened the gate and then, the factory main entrance was opened next. It was time for the workers to enter in.
However, even after waiting for long, nobody entered and Ivy wondered if the meeting was actually taking place that day or not. She stretched in her place as her body had gone stiff from being in one position. "What do you think? Did we make a wasted trip here?"
"Not at all, Miss West. There is still time for the meeting to start and even if the meeting does not happen today, we at least found important evidence about this place." Ronnie assured, his eyes fixed on the entrance gate. His words made sense. They had found out a significant clue and she was thankful to have the two men with her. Although she was capable of escaping danger herself, having them with her made her bolder.

Another half an hour passed and then suddenly, they heard the screeching of tires. Four cars entered the factory premises, followed by two minivans and an ambulance. The three people sat up straight and kept their eyes fixed on the horde of vehicles.
She saw many people get off the vehicles, but among them, she saw someone who seemed to be familiar to her. But she could not put a name to his face. "Do you recognize the man in the middle, the guy with the long brown trench coat?" Ivy asked the two men, her eyes not leaving the group.
Ronnie and Kaito focused their eyes on the man Ivy was talking about and Kaito gave up immediately as he had no idea who he was. However, Ronnie continued to look at him and he too found him to be familiar. And just like Ivy, he too could not remember who he was. "I find him way too familiar."
"Isn't he? Why am I not able to remember who he is?" Ivy racked her brain to pull out the memory related to the man. But how much ever she tried, she could not recollect who he was.
By then, the group had entered the factory and four armed guards stood outside the door. However, neither Ronnie nor Kaito were bothered by this, unlike Ivy who was coming up with her next course of action. They had already done what they had come here for. When they were inside the factory Ronnie fixed small mini cameras at all convenient places and he had even hidden voice recorders at places where the cameras could not be used. Joshua had given them to him and he had used them quite efficiently.
Ronnie activated all the devices at once using a tab and the next instant they could see the areas the cameras covered one by one. Meanwhile, Kaito used another device that recorded all the voices from the voice readers.

Ivy had no idea about this and she could only gape at them in surprise. "When did you even do this?"
"When we were inside before," Kaito answered politely.
"Why was I not informed about it? I was worrying about how to get inside now. If I had known, I would have relaxed too." She accused.
"Didn't Master Martin tell you about these devices?" Ronnie asked bewildered by her complaints. He wondered why the man had not informed Ivy about it.
"Who is that?" Ivy asked completely forgetting about her boyfriend's last name. Her question rendered the two men speechless and they blinked at her in disbelief. Their expressions were enough for Ivy to get her answer. All of a sudden she started to feel guilty at forgetting her boyfriend's last name. But she did not show it on her face. "Of course, I know who it is. I was just joking." She tried to brush it off and it worked to some extent.
The two men turned their gaze away from her and concentrated on the devices in their hands. When all of them were connected, Ronnie handed his tablet to Ivy while he and Kaito observed the audio recorder. "By the way, why are we still here? We could have left right after we came out, right? Things would be easier if we leave from here as soon as possible."
"No, Miss West. The devices are shot range. So, we will not be able to get anything once we leave the premises." Ronnie answered.
Ivy still wanted to ask something but stopped suddenly when she heard someone speak on the earphones. So, she stopped talking and concentrated on the video. From the looks of it, it seemed that the group was in the manager's office which they had seen in the factory.
"How many cases have we got till now?" The man in the trench coat spoke after he sat on the chair. The camera was placed right opposite to him. So, Ivy could get a good glimpse of him.
"Sir, we have more than a thousand possible cases. But the number of people visiting the clinics under us is around ninety-two as of today." Ivy heard somebody speak.
"Ninety is a good number. We might get another hundred or two in the next few days. Keep going. Also, keep a watch out. We do not want an hindrances." The man warned, his voice turning extremely scary all of a sudden.
"Yes Sir. What are our next instructions?" Another guy asked.
"There will be a national basketball tournament next week. Release the poison again there and this time, the effect will be more." As soon as the man said the words, Ivy gasped. This was completely unimaginable to her and she froze in her place. This was all a ploy the organ harvesters had used to send more people to the hospital and do their work.
Everything fell into place now and Ivy remembered what Joshua and Noah had told her about Jared ordering the deathly virus in bulk. However, that was not the case. He had not used the virus this time. But had released a poison more horrible and effective than the virus. "Damn it."

Dungeon Core? Nah, I Think I'll Just Get Super-Wealthy Instead
The cycle is simple enough. A Dungeon Core is born from a wayward soul. It seeks power and agency, and works to accumulate wealth to fuel its power, in turn using this power to accumulate further wealth. Inevitably, the mind is lost as desperation and ambition drive it to commit darker and darker acts. Shortly thereafter, the adventurers arrive to quell the core. This is a tale that has repeated itself countless times throughout history: all cores desire power. And yet, this core seems to have it backwards. It doesn't want to rule the world. It has no desire to enslave or conquer. No, this core doesn't want to be a warlord, a villain, or a tyrant. It wants to start a core-poration. After all, when money is power, what greater weapon is there than capitalism? Join a dungeon core that wastes an absurd amount of time and effort trying not to be evil on his journey to earn fat stacks against all odds. -This is a 'Dungeon Core' type fiction with LitRPG elements in it. The start may be fairly slow compared to the average. Expect roughly 2.5k per chapter. -I'm only a hobbyist writer. As such, there may be the occasional error and pacing may be poorly-handled. Constructive criticism is alway welcome. I'm just here to write stuff that makes my brain release the g o o d c h e m i c a l s. -I am trashy and I like monsterpeople so you can expect an awful lot of those as we get further in. Thank you for reading this far, and I hope you enjoy.

The Adventures Of Heegan, Bleegan, Hoogan, and Bloogan: The Search For The Enchanted Toad Of Delarmir
This is a tale of four young goblin brothers, whose adventures and calamities are told as legends and jokes throughout the land. But they were first inspired by legends they heard, before ascending into one themselves; a reminder that simple beginnings can be the start of something great. Written for my D&D 5e party after they demanded I write an actual story about a children's book they found in one of our sessions, so I wrote it as it would appear in game as a childrens story. I took a very different approach on writing it, so do not be too disappointed when you find out it's not written at first grade reading level. Feedback is much appreciated, as I have never produced anything like this and I do hope I manage to entertain at least a few of you. New chapter releases to be within 3-5 days of one another (Work is now complete, do not expect new chapters).
