His Cute Wife is a Little Crazy

In the Immortal Sword Valley, Raiden was barking out orders to his teammates. Each order was peppered with an insult to his teammates, but they did not complain. He was a god in Valiant Kings, and he was carrying them. 

He was not supposed to play games using the computers installed for use for Immortal Sword Brigade business. However, he did not have a lot of helpers at the moment with tech work, so he spent his days and nights in the room. 

When he had a chance, he would take a break and play a game before resuming his work. 

"Die! Die! Die!" he shouted as his fingers moved at an astounding rate. 

"As expected of the true Valiant King!" One teammate praised as the ugly monster on their screens fell. 

"You are the undefeated king!" Another one praised. 

Raiden felt complacent. He was quite happy as the cheap team members sang his praises. He allowed them to pick whatever they wanted. To him, the rewards were useless. He liked playing with the bare minimum equipment to prove his value. 

"Should we play another round?" Someone asked. 

Raiden was about to accept when he noticed a flashing red on one of the monitors from the corner of his eyes. He immediately shut down the game. With the high-performance computers, the process took the blink of an eye. 

His teammates were left with question marks on their heads. 

"No, no, no!" Raiden slid his chair to the monitor with the flashing red lights while removing his headphones. 

As expected, the alert was on Watch. He was always monitoring for activity on Watch, and he had put a special alert for Akira. If something involving Akira came up, it would alert him immediately. He had almost missed the alert while playing. 

His hands flew over the keyboard as he opened the Watch interface. He looked at the scene before him, and his heart almost left his chest. The image was of a hotel, and Akira and Kaito were at the forefront. Moreover, there were numerous hostages. 

The camera turned from the restaurant and faced two people with guns. Their plain faces looked crazy and wild as if they did not have a care in the world. Those were the faces of people who did not have a reason to live. 

"Hello, ladies and gentlemen of the criminal underworld around this beautiful world," Bonnie said with a light wave of the gun. 

"Honey, do not forget the government spies who will be joining us," Clyde added. 

"Indeed. We are Bonnie and Clyde, and tonight, we will give you a good show." Bonnie added with the flair of a talk show host. "The highlight of our show tonight is… drumroll please." 

Clyde shot his gun at the crystal chandelier that Bonnie had also shot a little earlier. The shattering sounds were like twinkling bells in the quiet restaurant. The people screamed in horror at the gesture and tried to scramble to safety. 

One of the young men, who had come with his girlfriend, tried to escape from the restaurant in the confusion. Without warning, Clyde fire a shot at the young man's head, killing him instantly. He fell like a sack of potatoes. 

"Please do not interrupt the show!" Clyde shouted. 

Bonnie sighed. "As I was saying, the highlight of our show is… the Crystal Plaza. But before that, we will hear from the most feared assassin, Kaito and his seemingly unkillable girlfriend, Akira! What a pair, am I right?"

Raiden dialled his father's number immediately. "Dad, we have a big problem!" 

"Oh, who said he would not call me Dad again?" The Chief felt quite smug. His son always called him Chief and refused to act like a cute son. 

"This is not time for banter. Akira is in real trouble." Raiden shouted. "Alert the CAB, alert the minister, just alert everyone. Bonnie and Clyde are using Watch to broadcast!" 

"What?" The Chief stood up. 

"There is no time to waste. Find out where the command centre is, so I can share the Livestream." Raiden said before hanging up. 

The Chief made arrangements, and within minutes, Raiden was liaising with the people working under Director Yojima in the CAB.  Agent Larsen was also still in the CAB headquarters, helping out where he could with the crisis. 

Naturally, he had heard about Watch, but it was not a thing of much interest to the Interpol. It was more of an internal problem. However, when he saw the brazen behaviour of Bonnie and Clyde on the broadcast, he could see a potential disaster. 

His eyes glinted with a sharp light. If there was anything Kristian Larsen could discover, it was an opportunity amid a disaster. His life was a little stagnant in Interpol lately, but he could see a chance for turning tables. 

He moved from the forefront of the screen broadcasting the stream from Watch. Then, he called aside his two exceptional hackers to the side in an unseen area within the room. He turned to one of them with his cold, blue eyes.

"I want you to hijack the signal from Watch. Push it to all people registered to the application as well as all our authorised access points in Interpol. I want everyone to see it." Agent Larsen said. 

The hacker was a little confused, but she nodded. She had a vague idea of what Kristian wanted to do. Like anyone else involved in the tech department in a law enforcement office, she had heard of Watch. If they could get the culprits, promotions would await. 

Kristian turned to the other guy. "As for you, you should already know what to do." 

"Locate the application servers. Considering the nature of the app and the stage of development, the operation should be run at one central point. Overloading them should force overheating, or the developers will take some action to handle the extra traffic. If we locate this area, we can take down Watch." The man said with pride. 

"I do not need you to explain my plan to me." Kristian was annoyed at the man wasting time on reiterating his idea. "I do not care if you can hack them or if you hijack Interpol satellites to find unusual thermal signatures in Japan, just do it!" 

The two people rushed out to get started on their tasks.
