It took only three days for William to hand over the jammer.
Actually, it wasn’t that short.
In the meantime, rumors were circulating that one more victim had already been added.
Fortunately, the incident was still only taking place in Sydney.
If the guy had even moved the points to another city, things would have gotten outrageously complicated.
‘Good luck. If only the prerequisites for the plan are in place, it will succeed.’
That’s what William said.
I mean, it’s easy.
Is it really that easy to find?

“This is the place I was talking about. Millner Avenue.”
me too Ambrose Street. So, let’s try to activate the jammer at the same time.
“Didn’t I just tell you to turn it on for two seconds?”
That’s enough. Guess I’ll have to grow it right now.
With a short deep breath, I turned on the switch.
click A voice echoed in my ears.
Of course, it wasn’t really audible.
Because there was no way that a loud noise could be made when only one button was pressed.
It must have been just an auditory hallucination due to excessive tension.
found. two people. One active guy. One guy standing still.
“Irina is moving, and Leon is probably still.”
It’s good that they’re both in this city. However, we don’t know exactly who is who yet, so we’ll have to wait and see.
“Then I’ll let you move towards the person who is moving.”
so that The guy I think is Irina is about five blocks from Milner Avenue where you are. It’s just moving through Sidnum Road, so let’s go there.
If you can find out the location of these guys so easily, you might think that you can just go and kill Irina or convince Leon, but it’s not a problem that can be solved so easily.
If we kill Irina with our own hands, it will be difficult to recover after death.
Are you trying to convince Leon by force with Nihilis?
It’s a nonsensical sound.
It will only increase the likelihood that Leon will notice and run away, or that Leon will become hostile to us.
Therefore, our position in this case was not to be a solver, but a person who happened to intervene, and it had to be Leon’s ‘helper’ who made Leon directly solve the case.
Only then will you be able to gain trust from Leon.
I can’t brief you now because of the risk of eavesdropping. To memorize the faces of passers-by. Stay alert and focus. We will contact you again when we reach a reasonable distance.
“yes.”
Since it was a street with few people, the tension seemed to double.
It was not easy to tell who was who, as everyone was passive and wary of each other.
Even the behavior was the same.
However, that was also an advantage for me.
Normally, when I saw such a tense look, I would have immediately noticed that something was strange, but everyone was doing that here, so my appearance didn’t seem particularly special.
Of course, I couldn’t stare at people’s faces no matter what, so I had to remember them with a light glance.
passed the first person.
Second.
Third, when we reached the middle of Sidnum Road, the jammer switch was quickly raised and lowered.
This seemingly dangerous behavior had two implications.
One was to confirm that Nihilis’s detection was accurate, and the other was to impress the existence of Irina, or Leon, who would be mixed between them.
Neither side wants to interfere with the 3rd force, so it was natural for them to focus on me.
However, the facial expressions of passersby did not change at all.
Seriously, if I had only reacted to this kind of thing, the Cosmos Special Forces would have beaten it up earlier.
fourth.
Fifth.
Finally, as the sixth person passed, I somehow managed to cross this long Sydney Road.
To be honest, I can’t remember anything else.
Only human faces are remembered.
Sweat dripped down whether it was from the heat or from nervousness.
If this was Korea, I would definitely have attracted attention from the people around me.
Why are you sweating so much in this cold winter weather?
However, fortunately, such an accident did not occur.
This is because South Africa, where I am currently staying, is a country located in the Southern Hemisphere, so it was like midsummer.
Even looking at this figure drenched in cold sweat, it was an atmosphere that simply went on to say, ‘You are a person who burns a lot of heat.’
For that misunderstanding, I had no choice but to express my gratitude.
If it wasn’t for him, he might have dislodged his camouflage and took my life right away, hiding from passersby.
Fortunately, these circumstances allowed me to maintain the appearance of a ‘vaguely suspicious person’.
can you hear me
“yes… It sounds good.”
Good work. You must have remembered the faces of passersby, right?
“Yes, I checked everything. They were all dressed as ordinary passersby, but none of them looked like Priscilla.”
Then that guy on Sidnum Road is here. Now let’s try to lure Leon out. He’s on Lundy Road now.
“All right.”
Even though I had to go through the trouble of re-crossing the long Sidnum Road, I had no idea.
I just want to see this crazy plan come true.
* * *
This is the house we have now arrived at.
“Are you sure?”
It is certainly.
“All right.”
I put the prepared note into the drink can I just drank, and threw it on the street with an expression of indifference as much as possible.
Then, after minimizing the influence of the jammer in his pocket, he repeatedly clicked the switch.
So that it does not affect Irina, but only affects Leon.
In the eyes of people, it must have looked like a person who simply throws garbage on the road.
* * *
Irina is not
A guy who wears jammers like this should have been dropped from the training course earlier.
If so, who the hell are you?
I don’t have too much information.
While I was thinking about it for a while, I heard the sound of drink cans hitting each other outside.
At the same time, my mana frequency jammer started to stop working again.
Not really sane… for a moment.
This wasn’t just meant to make fun of me.
Because he was signaling me with a jammer.
Seeing that the jammer operates at a constant cycle, it seems to be using Morse code.
I didn’t know that there were still people who used such primitive methods, but seeing that they were making requests in a way that only I could understand, it was difficult to pass them up.
I’ll have to decipher it first.
‘ㅅㅐwp-ㅡㄹㅇㅎ
Retrieve the sample.
Sample?
What sample are you talking about?
I shook my head desperately.
And, I checked everything that could be a small sample among the objects around me.
As a result, there was only one object that could be called a sample.
Drink cans rolling on the street.
It meant taking a sample of the saliva that was buried in the entrance.
Of course, the danger was too great to show up like this, so I sent the owner’s doppelganger out of the house and quickly retrieved the drink cans.
And inside it was a small note.
“There are three ‘I’ in this city.
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Me as me
Irina who became ‘I’.
you made me
At around 6 o’clock, the ‘First Me’ will pass at the intersection where Lundy Road and Stevan Heath Road meet.
The ‘second me’ is Irina.
I will induce the ‘third me’ and the ‘second me’ to meet.
When things are done, I will go there at midnight.”
understood.
I don’t know who it is, but that’s a pretty clever idea.
For now, let’s try to follow this guy’s words.
* * *
The setting sun suddenly hung among the skyscrapers that formed the skyline.
The time the second and hour hands remain in a straight line.
Yep, that meant 6 o’clock was close.
Irina’s mana frequency has changed. It is difficult to identify precisely because of the disturbance, but if you see that the basic frequency is similar to you, it must have changed to you.
“What about Leon?”
The exact same frequency as yours is also observed in Lundy Road. Looks like a doppelganger was created.
“Then we should move slowly.”
Are you really confident?
“sure.”
Okay, Irina is slowly climbing up Stevanhes Road from Milner Avenue. see you alive I will cut off communication now.
About five minutes after walking down Stevanhes Street, I started hearing faint footsteps behind me, as if following me.
It was Irina.
It would be far enough to kill me, but it wouldn’t happen or anything like that.
Because you can’t kill me while I’m pretending to be Leon.
If traces of killing someone remain, it is revealed that he is not Leon.
However, the risk is too great to leave me alone, so I guess I’ll try to follow it first, and kill it when it comes up.
In the end, in order for the Leon cosplay to continue to work, the ‘complete disappearance’ of the subject must be laid as a premise, which is only possible when the person is captured.
However, capturing someone is much more difficult than simply killing him, and I am not the kind of person to be caught like that.
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Moreover, I have a strong ally called Nihilis.
Of course, as I had no way of knowing what kind of weapon the opponent was hiding, I could not let go of the tension.
OK, we got through the second block safely.
Just two more blocks to go, and the plan will be a success.
Because I can feel that there is an ‘another me’ in front of me.
How to know it is simply a feeling.
I don’t have the great sensing ability to discern human frequencies like Nihilis.
However, it was clear that a familiar yet heterogeneous energy was overflowing.
both in front and behind.
I can feel the distance between the three getting closer and closer.
However, I couldn’t turn my head.
If I did that, I’d run into an ‘another me’ right away.
I even closed my eyes for fear that something like that would happen.
All I can do now is run forward.
As I was running like that, I heard a dull sound from behind.
Perhaps it was the sound of two ‘I’ colliding.
However, no further sound was heard.
Shouts and screams, and the sound of falling to the floor and hitting your knees.
Yes, it was proof that the plan had succeeded.
It was a very gambled move, but it paid off in the end.
it seemed like it would be
From the moment I heard the story of Nihilis.
As you know, Irina’s ‘transformation’ is not simply changing into someone’s shape.
Because it’s the ability to transform into a person who is exactly the same as him.
So I thought.
If it’s the ability to change into a person just like me, I wonder if it’ll be destroyed even if it encounters the me created with Leon’s ‘doppelganger’.
And, that prediction was exactly right.
Leon’s doppelganger, who appeared from the waiting area, and Irina, who became like me, confirmed each other, and the two disappeared.
The proof was that there was no more sound.
… I really didn’t know it would be successful.
“Who am I?”
The idea of using the fact that Irina transforms into the exact same person as her target to annihilate her as a doppelganger was certainly great.
“I roll my hair like crazy.”
