"Argggg…Ok ok sorry, I’ll speak up, please just release me."

"Wew, you really worth your words huh. Clap clap."

Why saying it rather than doing the actual applause? Are you really that insisted to appreciate me?

"Sis, could you come here please? And Jhenn, please lock the door and come here also."

"Ok."

"Engg… ok. But why?"

"Sis, please stand by, and prepare to use the body strengthening on his mouth."

"Oh, I get it. To numb his mouth when he tried to scream isn’t it?"

"Right."

"And then, Jhenn interrogate him."

"Ok. First, who are you?"

"I’m a healer."

She clicked her finger.

"Ok."

I pushed my feet slightly to squish it.

"Arggghhh… Okok, sory sorry"

"Stop it! Now, tell me!"

"I’m Dika Nugraha, an E-rank healer. I’ve forced to joined them and my job is to be a hooker to bait someone to calling it’s black-box without returning it."

"Ok, now it proves our assumptions even I don’t need your name though. Next, who are them? What’s the motive?"

"I don’t really know. I just escorted my wounded friend here and they mark up the hospitalization fee. Then they forced me to do this to pay that fee. As a healer I get paid for every people I’ve healed, and as a baiter I get paid 1000 points for every 10 succeed operation. What I know is they just stealing black-box in this hospital."

"You’re not trying to report this to the authorities?"

"…We just can’t."

So that why. He needs to pay the fee. This bad huh. I mean, I think he won’t try to tell the authorities because he thinks that they can’t handle it. This super-power was given to human and not everybody at the police is received it. The crime rate was risen and police was people first institution they expected to handle it. We need a new law enforcement or a developed one huh.

There is also a case that he feared by the upper. Whether they take his friend as a hostage or just simply overpowered him.

"You don’t feel they could handle this?"

"Something like that."

But I think there’s one more possibility.

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

"Do every healer there is also your companion? Just how many people in the whole gang?"

"No, not everyone, just a small part. For the total…I think it’s around 25 people like me and 3 medics here were also involved. One is very powerful, he has A-Rank fire grace. And his name is… dr. Niko."

"What?! dr. Niko?!!"

"Why sis?"

"It’s just I didn’t expect it."

"But you believed?"

"I’m not very sure though. But he seems fishy lately, like he always went home late night even when he doesn’t have any task to do."

Damn, it would be hard. I hope Jhenn could handle the after effect with her money power.

"Jhenn, could we?"

"Nah, don’t worry."

I nodded.

"Ok next, whom you reported before you went here?"

"Just him. My task was just to reported it to the executioner, furthermore it’s their task to reported it to the upper."

"So basically, the baiter is just a bunch of people who didn’t have a combat-type grace? And the executioner is those who has a combat-type."

"Yes, you’re right. And that man is one of the best from ours. But he was troublesome. He frequently didn’t report to the upper when he goes to hunt."

"Huh? This weak man was? Ok tell me your base then?"

"Jhenn, Please!"

"Pftt..."

No no no Jhenn. I know its laughable for you but could you please not use that arrogance of yours to change the plan? And sist is holding her laugher.

To be blunt, I’m yet seeing his appearance correctly.

"Hmmm?"

"What?"

"Wait…I think I know him. He was the man I bumped yesterday."

"The one who suspected to stole that miss-victim back then?"

"Yes. Hmm… Ok let me confirm it once more. You joined them to save your friend and not for your personal benefit?"

"Sorry I can’t say that, since save him is my personal benefit…"

I think I can play with it. I released him and give him a hand to stand.

"Why you released him."

"Sir could you just sit on that sofa."

"Hey, why you released him?"

"Trust me, and please just keep an eye to the other man."

I went to the edge of the room to bring him some water to drinks.

"Here sir, drinks it and relax."

"Why, what you intend to do with me kid?"

"Nothing much, I just trust you."

"Eh?" "HAH?" "What."

They said that word of distrust simultaneously.

"I know how it feel to have an urge to save a beloved friend."

I smiled at him.

"If I’m allowed to tell you the truth, I have known your doings from the start. You tried to deceived me, aren’t you? I know it from the start sir."

"…"

"But I just can’t see you evil enough. Your face was kind of feel guilty toward me yesterday. It’s just like you were forced to do it to save a precious thing."

"Sorry…"

"Nope, I’m the one who should apology. Could you tell me how much you should pay to release that friend of yours?"

"I don’t think his plan was to make me pay it. Rather they only need man-power to join his force."

"So, that’s mean you don’t even know how long you need to do it as long as he’s still doing this?"

"Something like that. My friend is taken hostages and his black-box were being stolen. He has a B-Rank grace that could control water around him."

"Why you tell me this sir? I don’t need to tell you my intention huh? Then let’s make it clear, would you join us to exterminate them?"

"Ok, I agreed."

"Rega? Why you invited them? Isn’t they’re one of them?"

"Calm down sis Ren. You’re still hiding something aren’t you? It’s just strange why you choose to bring this half-hearted villain. Your intention is not just randomly seeking a reinforcement, aren’t you?

"He said that other man was rarely reported to their upper, and he choose him as the executioner. You know what that’s mean aren’t you Jhenn?"

"He’s wishes us to get rid of that executioner?"

"Yup. Then sir, normally people in your situation would run and just reported to the authorities, am I right?"

"Ah so that’s it."

"What it is Jhenn, could you tell your confused big sis here?"

"Sis Ren, what Rega tried to say is why this man is so distrust to the authorities. It’s like he already known that they couldn’t handle it, or…"

As I expected, Jhenn is understand perfectly what is in my mind.

"Then sir, as we’re now in the same team, could you tell us your true identity."

"You kids are unexpectedly sharp at your age, aren’t you? I can’t report since I’m also one of the authorities itself. I’m an intel from police."

That’s the other possibilities I expect earlier. He wasn’t tried to report to the authorities due to he was already one of it.
