Inside a Space Ship,
Ding! Ding! Ding! (Sound of ringing bell)
"Hello! This is your captain, Osvaldo Alvarez of the A221B45 Spaceship. Dear customers, please fasten your seat belts within three minutes. The voyage to our destination, the International Space Station D-981 in Exoplanet Gliese 667 Cc, will be begun shortly. "
After ten minutes, he spoke again. "Thanks for your cooperation. Our destination is exactly 23.62 light-years from our earth. So, by our current speed, we will reach the exoplanet within half an hour."
Currently, around an extremely luxurious dining round table, Bobby and his family currently had their meals.
"Dad, why do you bring your old suitcase here? It has been 10 full years that I have seen it before. Umm! Also, it is exactly the same as before." Margaret asked while pointing at the rusty old suitcase that lay in the room's corner.
"Hey, girl, stop joking like that. That suitcase contains the heirloom of our family. " Mia Bradford scolded her.
"Oh, family heirloom! Then it must contain some precious artifacts, right?" Margaret said with a sly smile.
Thud! (Sound of hitting on the head)
"Mom, what is that for?" Margaret asked, and pouted at her.
"Girl, never mind your dad's old suitcase. I am warning you." Mia glared and warned her.
"Bobby, don't you feel curious about what will be inside Dad's old suitcase?" Margaret moved a bit closer and mumbled in his ear.
"Nope, it will be more interesting to think what is inside it without opening it, like Schr?dinger's cat joke," Bobby replied with a smile.
"Oh! Schr?dinger's cat joke! What is it?" Margaret asked again.
"Oh! About that, Schr?dinger once stated that if you place a cat and something that could kill the cat may be a radioactive atom in a box and sealed it, you would not know if the cat was dead or alive until you opened the box. So, until the box was opened, the cat was in a sense both dead and alive. " Bobby explained.
"But what is the point?" Margaret asked.
"The point is simple once you know the truth about what is inside the suitcase, eventually you will lose interest. So, it is interesting for me to keep it without knowing what is really inside it." Bobby replied and took a bite of his Reuben sandwich.
"In short, you don't like to open it. " Margaret said.
"I and your mom will join a nearby local school as new transfer teachers. Margaret, do you have any new plans when we reach our new home? " Jeremy asked.
"I would like to go to a military college this time," Margaret replied.
"That's a great idea. You have already ignited your Origin Chi for over 10 years. And I have already trained you enough. It's time you go and learn something new from there." Jeremy said.
"Uncle Jeremy, I will have three quotas to recommend in any military college after my enlistment in the Military. Margaret can use one of my quotas if she really likes to enter a military college. " Bobby suggested.
"Okay, let's do that." Jeremy agreed.

Inside the Director's office, a beautiful lady was currently watching on the holographic 3-D screen while sitting on the sofa.
Director Kemino stood politely beside her.
The scene on the screen was about Bobby and his family coming to the space agencies.
" Batorākemino[1]! " The stunningly beautiful lady called him in Japanese. When they were alone, they always spoke in Japanese.
" Yes, young Miss Diana. " Director Kemino replied in Japanese.
"Yesterday, when I had followed those three bullies to teach them a lesson, suddenly a black hooded man came out and beat all three of them. Then I followed him instead, using my shadow skill." Diana spoke and sipped her coffee once.
Kemino listened carefully.
"But he easily found out about my presence quickly. Then, I came out and used my mind convulsion skill on him. For a moment, I thought that he was under my spell, but I didn't know exactly why it was not working on him. " Diana said.
"Do you find out anything about that guy? " Director Kemino asked.
"He called himself the infamous vigilante, 'Night Owl'. He also found out that I am from the Carver family and even knew about my grandpa, Peter Carver." Diana replied while brooding.
"Night Owl! " Director Kemino exclaimed, and said, "Miss Diana, you better stay away from him next time. No one knows much about 'Night Owl' until now. He is a man of mystery. Moreover, he is extremely dangerous. You need to talk about this with your grandpa."
Diana looked at the screen. Then she placed the teacup on the tray and stood up.
"Oh! He has already left for International Space Station D-981 in Exoplanet Gliese 667 Cc. I need to get ready, too."
Then she walked toward the door.
"Miss Daina, I have a doubt! Can I ask you something?" Director Kemino asked.
"Okay. " Diana replied.
"I have been helping Bobby Bradford all this time under your order. I agree he is a genius. But, he is still a Defect. If your family finds out about this matter, they will be against it. And you may even be punished. Why are you doing this? " Director Kemino asked.
Diana looked at him deeply and replied slowly with a stern tone, "I know you brought me up. And you teach everything I know now. So, I respected you as my mentor and as a fatherly figure. But, Batorākemino, you need to know your place."
"I apologize! This will never happen again." Director Kemino said sincerely.
"I have already been with him my whole life. And about my family, I will handle them. You just need to help him for now." Diana said and rushed out of the room.
Director Kemino smiled wryly. Then, he said while laughing, "This little girl has already been grown up. She even started scolding this old man. Haha haha, this is the first time she gets angry at me. The girl has completely fallen in love with that boy."
