Jebi is sitting face to face with Patrick and Rick.
(Rick) - I've come straight to the point. You'll have a job if you can do it. Until today, any cases that will be in your name will be handed over to you. And you'll also be given the opportunity to work with us. If you're not willing, we'll use our influence to keep you in jail for as long as we can.
(Jebi) - That means I have no other option. However, I do have a question. Why are you approaching me for this job? Work like this must be crucial! Why me?
(Patrick) - It's 312 cases of swindle. I've thoroughly researched each case, using different methods each time. You've fooled people, and what you've done is praiseworthy. That's why I'm offering you the opportunity to work with our 'Red' organization.
( Red is first mentioned in chapter 2
Nine years ago, there was an organization called 'Red.' From there, two more organizations were formed later. One was our organization, 'Resolver,' which Mr. Patrick had established, and the other was 'Owner of Night,' created by a person named Mr. Rick.)
(Rick) - I'm 'Red' Officer Number 3, and Patrick is Officer Number 2. Do you want to work with us permanently?
(Jebi) - I'll let you know my answer later! Now, tell me, what exactly do you want me to do for you?
(Patrick) - In 2 days, the U.S.A's President will be visiting our country. We've learned from our confidential sources that a dangerous criminal, whom we and other intelligence agencies have been hunting for several years, is planning to attack the President. Your job is to come up with a plan to save the President.
Patrick handed a book to Jebi and said, "I've also written a book for you. This book contains a lot of information about president life. You need to finish reading it quickly; time is short. The book is enormous, with over 12,00 pages. Even if you can't read it all, try to read a bit. There's a lot of information in the book that can be useful."
(Jebi) - I will try to finish reading the book. But here, where the name is written as 'Tom Hommer,' that's not the current U.S.A. President's name.
(Rick) - If you want to know more about what you've been told, you'll have to join us.
(Jebi) - Let me be clear. If you don't tell me everything clearly, there might be misunderstandings in the plan.
(Rick) - To put it simply, there are individuals in the world who secretly control the Earth, and one of them will come to our country.
(Jebi) - I understand that, but I need more answers, like why is this person coming?
(Patrick) - You might not grasp the whole picture. On Earth, there are individuals who, from their hidden positions, have complete control over the world. These individuals have formed an organization called 'The Absolute One.' Within this organization, there's a ranking system, like 1, 2, 3, and so on. In our country, we have President 51. President 50 is coming from America for a specific task related to President 51.
(Jebi): What do you need to do if you want to become someone's 'Ranking'?
(Patrick): It can happen in various ways. For example, if president 51 has more power (money) than the person ranked 50, they can challenge the 50th rank. Then, the other presidents will make a decision through voting. If the 51st rank wins the vote, they will become the new 50th rank president. Furthermore, if the 50th rank president dies, the 51st rank president will take over the 50th rank.
(Jebi): I've understood a bit now. But there's another matter; I need information about that fearsome criminal.
Mr. Rick handed a file to Jebi and said, "There is some information here."
(Jebi): Thank you.
(Patrick): Keep my number; let me know if you need something.
With that, they said their goodbyes. Jebi started reading the book and finished it along with the file within four hours. Afterward, without doing anything else, he went to sleep.
On the other hand, Mr. Rick was visited by someone at the Red organizations office. The person informed Mr. Rick, "Sir, Jebi has probably finished the book and the file."
(Rick): So quickly! Truly impressive.
Mr. Rick had secretly placed cameras in Jebi's house, which would capture him if he tried to leave. Upon watching the video recording, Mr. Rick thought to himself, "if we assume Jebi reads one page in just a minute. That means it will take him 12,00 minutes to finish the entire book, or 20 hours to complete it. But he read it in 4 hours. I suspect he hasn't read the whole book, only glanced through it."
Patrick was talking to someone, a person around 40 to 45 years old. The person asked, "312 cases of fraud, do you think we can trust him?"
(Patrick): Yes, President 51.
President 51 replied, "Get him to bring it to me, and yes, inform me of his plans in a timely manner!"
After a brief conversation, Patrick bid farewell and returned to the office.
Upon arriving at the office, Patrick noticed Jebi in the office and asked, "What are you doing here? Have you finished your book?"
(Jebi): Yes, I finished.
Patrick responded, "Are you kidding? How did you finish such a massive book, and where is Rick?"
Jebi replied, "I've found out that Mr. Rick has gone somewhere, and yes, I've completed my plans. From the file, I learned the name of that fearsome criminal, D-Double."
Patrick asked, "Your plans are completed so quickly?"
(Jebi): Yes, my plans are finished. And yes, Mr. Rick will tell you about the small cameras he installed in my house. Tell him i Won't gonna run away "

Jebi left and headed home. Before leaving, he requested that the cameras in his house be sent to him.
Back at his house, Jebi watched the cameras. They had arrived a little earlier. During his surveillance, he received a phone call. Patrick was calling him. Jebi answered the call. Patrick informed Jebi that he had sent a car to his house, and President 51 wanted to meet him. He asked Jebi to come along.
Within moments, the car arrived, and Jebi got into it as he set off with President 51's intentions in mind.
Jebi reached the office at 6 PM. He found Patrick at the office and was led by Patrick towards President 51's room. They arrived at President 51's room in no time. President 51 did not immediately acknowledge Jebi when he entered the room. Jebi realized that this person did not seem amicable.
When Patrick attempted to introduce Jebi, President 51 replied, "There's no need for me to get acquainted with him. What should I do with a criminal?"
Jebi didn't say anything in response, but it appeared that he was smiling inwardly, yet not showing it.
President 51 instructed Patrick to find out Jebi's plans and inform him.
Patrick emphasized, "Jebi, please inform me of your plan."
Jebi replied, "Starting today, you need to track the mobile phones of all individuals in this organization. Listen to every word they say to each other. Because there's a high possibility that Diablo may have an associate within this organization. Tonight, from 7 PM, we'll start tracking everyone's phones. And President 50's flight is scheduled for 9 AM tomorrow, but we'll inform him to come an hour later, so he'll arrive at 10 AM. Please keep this in mind."
Patrick didn't waste a moment. He had to share Jebi's plan with President 51. They headed to President 51's room. Patrick told Jebi to understand that President 51 was quite arrogant and proud.
When Patrick tried to inform President 51 about Jebi's plan, President 51 had been drinking water. He urged them to come right away.
As Patrick walked Jebi into President 51's room, he advised Jebi not to underestimate President 51 and his arrogance. However, Jebi was focused on something on his mobile, not really paying attention to Patrick's words.
Jebi was watching a recording in President 51's live room, appearing to have spotted something interesting.
Jebi explained, "Let's wait a little. We are now at the climax. We'll start tracking phones at 7 PM. Just wait for a while."
Then, Jebi inserted an earphone into Patrick's ear and told him to listen. They could hear President 51's conversation on the other end. It went like this: "If things go as planned, you won't be able to kill President 50. Meet me, and I'll tell you their plan. They will start tracking everyone's mobile phones from 7 PM onwards. From 7 PM, make sure everything is in place. I'll be there soon."
As Jebi suspected, President 51 was indeed involved.
Patrick was curious and asked Jebi, "How did you figure all this out?"
Jebi replied, "Let's go to President 51's room. As you mentioned earlier, if president 50 dies then president 51 will take his place . we need to see who gains the most if President 50 dies. The logical answer is President 51's. So, I suggested changing the flight time to make sure that whoever is collaborating with Diablo takes action. Since we are here early, I told him to arrive at 10 AM instead of 9 AM. If someone is indeed involved with Diablo and this organization, he will make an attempt to communicate with Diablo before we start tracking the phones at 7 PM. Now, we need to see where he tries to make contact with Diablo. When we have that information, we can catch him."
Patrick understood the plan and was impressed by Jebi's deductive skills.
"As they continued to talk, they reached the front of President 51's room. Jebi entered the room and said, 'Hello, Mr. President!'
President 51 looked at Jebi and asked, 'Why has this lowlife criminal come here again, and where is Patrick?'
(Jebi) - 'President Fifty-One, we will unite your kind with the lowlifes for all time.'
(Patrick) - 'President 51, you have been arrested.'
President 51 turned towards them and asked, 'What are you saying, all of you!'
Jebi, addressing President 51's intention, said, 'Mr. President, I have torn your veil and I am destroying myself by speaking to this criminal, Mr. Patrick. Take this lowlife away.'
With that, President 51 angrily stared at Jebi and was about to attack. However, Jebi swiftly gave President 51 a front kick to his face.
President's nose was broken, and he immediately became unconscious."
"Jebi's wicked smile broadened.
Patrick thought to himself, 'So, that was Jebi's intention; he changed President 51's perception, who previously insulted him.'
(Jebi) - 'But it was just self-defense, Mr. Patrick.'
Patrick, he now sat on a chair, sipping tea and waiting for the news.
Mr. Rick addressed Jebi, saying, 'Hey, little genius.'
Jebi, looking at Mr. Rick, responded, 'You've got the news.'
(Rick) - 'Certainly, I have.'
(Jebi) - 'What happened? Please tell me.'
(Rick) - 'I have asked you a question; once I get the answer, I'll tell you the news.'
(Jebi) - 'What question?'
(Rick) - 'Do you know anything about individuals with special abilities granted by a higher power, like my ability to control ice, and, as I've mentioned before, your fate depends on your answer.'
(Jebi) - 'If I say I don't know, what will happen?'
(Rick) - 'Then you'll die here.'
(Jebi) - 'I do possess an ability, but if I tell you about it, my ability will become the problem.'
(Rick) - 'Alright, I believe you for now. To talk about the news, we'll have to go to the Diablo; they've catch him. Come, let's go.'
(Rick) - 'Oh, and one more thing, did you thoroughly read the book about President 50's life?'
(Jebi) - 'Of course, I've memorized the whole book entirely. Wait a moment; I'm going to the restroom.'"
"After 30 minutes,
(Jebi) - "Mr. Patrick, has Diablo said anything yet?"
Patrick replied, "No, he hasn't spoken, but he has shown another issue. The person who has been apprehended is called Ripol, an office worker, 31 years old, with two children and a clean background."
Jebi thought to himself, "This doesn't seem like Diablo; it's the real Devil's trap, trying to divert someone else."
Mr. Rick asked Patrick, "Has he said anything so far?"
(Patrick) - "He's only concerned about his family."
Upon hearing this, both Rick and Jebi had widened eyes and smiles on their faces for some strange reason.
(Rick) - "Take me to him, let him speak the truth; eyes never lie."
Rick and Jebi both went to Ripol.
Both observed Ripol carefully, who kept saying that he wants to save his family and doesn't want to live. Again, that strange smile appeared on both Rick's and Jebi's faces.
(Rick) - "No doubts, the guy is telling the truth. So, now, our task is to keep President 50 alive; there's still a possibility that Diablo will kill the President as his job was to kill President Fifty."
Suddenly, blood started coming out of Ripol's mouth.
(Jebi) - "Poison?"
Ripol died within moments.
(Jebi) - "We need to send people quickly to save Ripol's family. He said he might save his family, maybe poison has been given to them as leverage to make him come here instead of Diablo."
They quickly headed towards Ripol's house, while Jebi returned to the organization's office.
"It's a good night, and it's 11 o'clock. Jebi is certain to be awake. He has received news about Ripon's family. Nobody has been given poison, and Jebi has understood that the whole matter is to understand the real Diablo. Diablo told Ripon that he has also given poison to his family. If he wants to save his family, he needs to go to the place where he is standing. It could also be possible that Ripon knew he was given poison because he is saying that he doesn't want to live, which means he knew he had been given poison but still came to save his own family.Like a real men.
Mr. Rick has received a letter from the ripons house. The letter has been sent by Diablo, and in the letter, it is clear that Diablo will kill President 50. With this letter, it is also clear that Diablo is challenging us.
Both Jebi and Rick still have that same smile on their faces, and both of them have the same thought in their minds, and that thought is, 'My toy is here.'"
