I have been writing many things since I was born. I have also written many great stories. But it looks to me that this story of Jebi Astry is also going to be one of the greatest stories in my book.
It's 10 PM. The time when two men will face each other. Both of them will bet everything in this fight!
Vincenzo, a man in his mid-30s. Considering the amount of power and money he has, we can certainly say that he is definitely young! Vincenzo has a good face shape, golden hair, and golden eyes. In a word, he is handsome. Not just handsome, but very handsome.
......
(Vincenzo) - So, what are we gonna play?
(Jebi) - I am ready whenever you guys want!
(Arnold) - Well, this gamble will be observed by our respective organization's members and myself too! Not just that, we have a guest here too! Um, where is he? Mister Astry?
(Jebi) - Writer, come on, show yourself!
(Writer) - Okay!
(Vincenzo) - Now, that's a great magic trick. Who are you, anyway?
(Arnold) - He is a being who is compared to God! He is actually a near-omnipotent being! He will be watching the game for us! So, there won't be any cheating!
(Vincenzo) - Now I see!
(Arnold) - Yes! Now, as you guys know, the game you both are going to play is a group game! First, let us choose your teammates. I will be the one who will choose your teammate!

(Jebi) - Well, I have a problem with that!
(Arnold) - Now what?
(Jebi) - You are the leader of 'UOF,' and Mister Vincenzo is a member of this organization. So it is most likely possible that you will be helping Mister Vincenzo when you are selecting the members! There will be a doubt in my mind even if you didn't cheat, right?
(Vincenzo) - Um, I need to make a call. Mister Arnold, you listen to what problem Mister Astry has!
Vincenzo goes a little backwards, away from Jebi and Arnold.
(Arnold) - Then what do you want to do? Do you want to select your teammates by yourself? If you choose this way, you will be the one who will be at a disadvantage because Mister Vincenzo has far more influence than you can imagine. He has more capable men under his wings!
(Vincenzo) - Where were we? My call is finished!

(Arnold) - Mister Jebi rejected my offer of selecting the members!
(Vincenzo) - Oh really? So Mister Jebi, do you have a better suggestion than this?
(Jebi) - Of course I do. My suggestion is... umm... let's say I am going to select a place, then Vincenzo will select some random people from that place. And Mister Arnold's men will safely bring those selected people to this tower, okay? Mister Vincenzo will select the people by watching through cameras.
(Vincenzo) - This seems fine!
(Jebi) - Then I will select the shopping mall.
(Vincenzo) - Then I will select the railway station. This is going to be really fun! Honestly! To think you can entertain me is truly quite a feat. You should be proud of yourself!
(Jebi) - I am sorry, but I can't understand what you are saying.
(Vincenzo) - Come on now! Don't be dumb. I understand very well what your strategy is!
(Arnold) - Hoo? Then can you explain to us what Mister Jebi's strategy is? Or are you just bluffing? By the way, we will have access to the cameras in just a few minutes! My men have already started their journey to the destinations you guys selected.
(Vincenzo) - That's great to hear! And of course, I can explain! The strategy that you pulled is actually a pretty smart move! Let me explain step by step!
**Step 1** - You rejected Mister Arnold's offer. After rejecting it, two possibilities would open. First is that both of us will choose our teammates for ourselves, but this would also be unfair since I have far more influence than you!
**Step 2** - After that, you proposed your current suggestion for teammate selection!
**Step 3** - Since you selected the game to start at night at 10 PM, this means you understand very well that we are going to select places for teammate selection that are nearby. Those places must be large and where people often come, like a shopping mall, railway station, or bus station!
These three steps are calculated from the start. You tried to manipulate our thoughts, but I figured it out. Now, the place you chose, the shopping mall—you must have filled the nearest shopping mall with your men. At this hour, people are starting to return home, so it is easy for you to fill that place with your men. Now, the other thing is that you can't control who enters the mall at night; your plan might be ruined. So, you might have told your men to dress in colors that attract human eyes like red, blue, or yellow. This is as far as I think your strategy goes! By this strategy, you can select capable teammates. But you know, this strategy of yours can easily be ruined.
Jebi seems a bit nervous.
With a shaking voice, Jebi says, "And how is that?"
(Vincenzo) - You see, you chose the shopping mall! That means I can choose anyone from the mall, even those who aren't in the camera view! Like, how about I choose the security guard who is patrolling each floor of the mall?
There is a smile on Vincenzo's face and tension on Jebi's face!
