Chapter 4: Assassination Attempt (2)
Iiinnnk*
Just a few seconds when he sat under the counter, the door without someone's control suddenly opened, on its own.
However, Arthur cannot be fooled by a childish disguise like this.
He was sure that the enemy was using something and turned invisible.
Although technology could hide someone's presence, with rich experience, you could not be fooled by this shit.
Although not every time you could guess.
The only thing that a mystery to him was, he doesn't have any suspect of someone has a grudge towards him.
Although he did some dark job in the past, he made sure that no one knew his identity and that was proven by him himself.
'Forget it! The most important thing right now is to win! '
Arthur smiled bitterly. Yes, he said winning the battle yet even he wasn't confident in himself.
Just for the enemy to be able to turn invisible, then the other party meant a rich high-tech technologies user.
In the entire county, he doesn't know the exact number of personnel who owned technologies that could turn them invisible but he knows that they were limited.
There was a big chance that the attacker was from another country.
.
As he was hiding, the invisible figure entered the shop smoothly.
'Who would have thought that everything is just normal? '
The figure shifted his eyes around and started looking for the thing the General wanted him to search for.
However, for a reason, he cannot find or detect any slight energy that was connected to the thing.
The figure won't back off tho, because he knows that the thing was here, just hidden.
'What's the use of that thing, why the General is so obsessed with it? '
As he was looking, a question suddenly popped up in his head.
He pressed a button in a wristwatch and a green screen appeared, a picture of what he was looking for then visualized.
A huge book, with a golden and red cover, with an expensive design and not normal at first sight. A book with an ancient alien inscription at the front as the title.
The description also said that it was an important thing for the fallen(1) and it could help them to strengthen their force.
After reading and analyzing the in and out of the book that the figure was looking for, he started to look around the shop again, searching for any place where the book could fit in.
Abruptly, his eyes fell into the counter, thinking about the size of the county and knowing the this has apartments in it, there was a big chance that it was there.
'Then, I shall start my inspection! '
The figure stepped forward and walked toward the counter.
.
Sitting and hiding behind the counter, Arthur felt that someone was coming.
The gust of the wind was telling him that someone was approaching. The wind wasn't talking, but he, with his rich experience (again) could understand how its works.
'Then, I'll never be polite! '
He clasped the gun tightly and pointed the gun towards his right side.
There was a wall blocking the way if you wanted to enter the counter from the left, and the right side was the entrance.
For sure, this was the only way the other group would take.
Tap*
Tap*
Tap*
With the silence of the shop and the other party's underestimation of its situation, it didn't even try to walk as silent as possible anymore. Yet walk as if he was at home.
Suddenly, invisible energy came out from the apartment of the counter and went straight to Arthur, without him even noticing the energy was engulfed by him.
.
'There is no one here!?'
Looking at the radar on its hand, the screen was showing no lifeform residing within the scope of the shop.
He forgot to check it a while ago that made it think that he just made himself an embarrassing act.
If he looked at this radar a while ago, he doesn't need to act as vigilant as that, because there was no one in here after all.
He was still debating in his mind when suddenly, he felt the energy connected to the book once again appeared.
Looking at the counter, he knew that this time, he really found the place where it was stored.
Haha*
