( 8 p.m. )
Inside the Hunter City Detective Agency, detective Yami Hisao and detective Minho are working overtime while talking about something.
"So Hisao, have you got any clues about that kid?"
"Huh!! no.... I want to look for any details, but I can't connect it the relation between the kid with yesterday's case. How about you Minho, do you have any clues, like his past?"
"No!!! Well it can't be helped, according to the data here it is said that Rook is an orphan and as far as I know the orphanage where he lived as a child has been sold."
"So it's useless for us to suspect him as a follower of that guild...." he added confidently.
"You're so sure, how do you know he's not a follower?"
"Of course not!!! Isn't the Dark Blade guild only recruiting Looters with side-type talents especially Sorcerers."
"That's right, Rook himself is a healer, his talent is in the support type so there's no way they can recruit him."
"But ... even so we have to keep an eye on him Minho because .... " added detective Hisao while taking out his cellphone.
"Because of what?" Inspector Minho asked.
(In the morning)
Rook who was late was running towards the division building, for fear of being late he was forced to borrow a rental bicycle so that his journey was a little faster, on the other hand the two detectives who spoke last night seemed to be following him from a distance.
"Why is he speeding like that!!! that impudent child!!!" Detective Hisao shouted angrily seeing Rook speeding on a bicycle.
"Just calm yourself, he's probably late."
"Late!! late!! So what !!!?, speeding like that is against the rules you know!!!"
"Well, it can't be helped, we can't directly ambush him, right, we're just snooping around."
"Tch!!! that's why I hate reconnaissance, it's too long!!!"
"What are you doing !!!! you said esterday that we must know the truth first before snooping on a fickle base ..... please be consistent you plin-plan emotional smoker!!!!" Detective Minho shouted annoyingly because this surveillance was actually carried out on detective Hisao's advice .
" Grrh !!! I did say that ! " he replied while annoyed , remembering their plan last night .
(So the plan last night was )
"Reconnaissance!!!" Detective Minho said, surprised by his friend's suggestion.
"Yeah why, is there a problem?"
"Of course, it's not that you hate things that require patience like reconnaissance, you raider!!!!"
"Well it can't be helped Minho, that's the only way that pops into my head right now."
"Plus you want to know something don't you?" he asked suddenly.
"Know what?" said detective Minho confused.
"Know that Rook is a survivor of the Azure Ruby incident!!!"
In his heart, detective Minho said, "How did he know that information, strange ... even though I thought I was the only one who knew that information."
"How do you know, that important information? It's obvious you have information." Minho asked detective who wanted to know more.
"So it's like this.... last afternoon I spoke to detective Sherlly, she said the police actually have an agent in the 13th Division and coincidentally the agent disguised himself as a staff there then..."
" Then .... ? "
"He caught the leader of the 13th Division, Rakesh von Astrea giving the Party a strange mission at the time."
"What mission....as far as I know they're on a regular Raid?"
"His mission at that time was to find the corpse of the "Skull Reaper" " he answered seriously.
"What!!! Skull Reaper!!! one of the legendary summons."
"Yeah, the legendary summons that rare classes like..... Summoner, Crafter, and Necromancer are looking for."
"Then ..... that's all he got?" he asked in surprise because he didn't know that the case was as strange as that.
"Not only that, thanks to the mini Drone Camera he brought, he also managed to cover a few important scenes in the incident," he replied while showing a video.
Detective Minho, who was watching the video, was shocked to see the figure that Rook (the Anomaly) was referring to and he muttered to himself, "It turns out he's right, the case was caused by Anomaly." )
"Hey Hisao!!!!" Detective Minho said suddenly.
"What's the matter, did you find something?"
" Can you send me this video !!! I want to research it "
"Okay fine!!" Detective Hisao replied without thinking.
(Back to the present.)
"Hissh!!! It's scary like this, .... but I wonder why the other Looters don't really know about this case?" Detective Minho asked detective Hisao while watching yesterday's video.
"Well ...perhaps because it was covered up as well as the possibility that the head of the 13th Division, had an illegal business."
"Wow, you're great too, aren't you... that's unussual!! Usually, you just don't want to think first and just catch everyone you suspect.. hahahahaha!!!" he replied jokingly. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
"You think I have no brain... huh!!!" Detective Hisao said angrily.
"I'm just kidding Hisao, but.... how long are we going to wait here?"
"Until he comes out, after all, since we can't possibly spy on him all the way to the Dungeon, at least we can spy on him when he comes home so we know his activities other than raiding."
"Hmm.... that's right, eh Hisao!! Do you want to eat or not, it's already noon!!!"
"Hey in a minute, I want... eghh!!!!" Detective Hisao shouted while holding her stomach.
"Why Hisao!!!!? " shouted detective Minho panicked.
Detective Hisao raised his right hand and said, "It's okay.... I'm... just... hungry" after which his stomach let out a loud roar.
"(You're a hypocrite you know that.)" Detective Minho thought to himself.
