I Picked a Mobile From Another World - Chapter 240
Episode 240 [ James (2) ]
A dimly lit passageway with flickering lights.
Jump and jump.
As the sound of footsteps echoed and a person appeared, a person appeared from the darkness.
It was an awakened person who guarded the passage.
The awakened person looked at the person who appeared.
An expressionless man with a sharp expression. He was the director of the CIA.
The only outsider who can pass through this place.
The awakened person looked at the director’s face, then looked at his clothes and tilted his head.
The director was wearing an old, ill-fitting coat.
The awakened person checked his face once again and disappeared into the darkness.
The remaining director sighed. If I did it wrong, I would have been caught.
He took off his old coat and threw it in a corner. Fortunately, the clothes inside were still intact.
He climbed the stairs and went out of the subway station.
“Have you finished your business?”
The police officers guarding the entrance recognized him and greeted him, but he just walked away with a dull expression on his face.
“Oh, the car is over there…”
The police shouted at him as he went in a different direction from the parking lot, but he waved his hands left and right and hurried on.
“Just leave it alone. Something must be going on. “He’s a high-ranking CIA guy, so he’ll take care of it.”
“is it. I was wondering if I could get a special offer if I could see it well…”
“Good luck.”
The words of a fellow police officer made another police officer lose his appetite.
As we got further and further away from the subway station, the director’s face changed.
With an ordinary face and with a face you don’t remember when it passes by.
After abandoning the director’s face, James immersed himself in the back alleys of Manhattan.
bang!
It was then.
There was someone who came out of the subway station.
It was a person with the same face as the director who had just left.
“How…”
With a puzzled expression, the police officers looked alternately in the direction where the director had just disappeared and at the newly appeared director. The newly appeared
director’s face was strangely distorted.
“Where did he go?”
The director shouted to the police officers who were wondering whether to check their identity or pull out their guns,
“He went that way.”
The police, overwhelmed by the momentum, pointed in the direction where the director had disappeared before coming out.
The back alleys of Manhattan had become like a maze with numerous buildings. There was no intruder in sight.
Director Byrd twitched his lips.
“What a fucking loser you are!”
The loser with only a brain left knew that there was an intruder. But he didn’t tell them there was an intruder until the end of the story. He took advantage of the
gap in the pledge to do important things first.
If you were a servant, you would just follow, but you would resist until the end. That’s it.
Thanks to you, I wasted time and the intruder escaped.
Fortunately, the goal of coming here was achieved, but it didn’t make sense until the rat escaped.
“This is an awakened person who imitated my face.”
I heard the story from the awakened people who let him go.
The story was that a human with the same face as him followed him and climbed up first.
Another person with the same face came in and it made no sense to just let him through, but brain surgery For one awakened person, orders took precedence.
He checked the police and clicked his tongue. They were different from the police he saw when he went in. He
went in after confirming that the police had changed shifts.
“You mean he was hiding nearby and watching?”
I must have seen him go in while I was looking for a way in.
“Bad timing.”
Director Byrd clicked his tongue.
As far as he knew, there was only one Awakened person who had the trait of imitating other people’s faces. He was an
Awakened person who had previously served as the head of EV’s Americas branch and served as a spokesperson, and was now a terrorist who incited people through pirated broadcasts. The first time
. An awakened person who used only the trait of lowering awareness, but at some point acquired the trait of taking on the appearance of another person.
He was a top arrestee by the CIA and FBI.
Moreover, what he saw was something that should never be revealed.
“I found it.”
A person appeared under the station entrance. A man with a dark expression. He was an awakened person guarding the underground. In
his hand, he held an old coat. It was the coat that James had thrown away.
“It helps to have a sharp eye.”
He called and called his men waiting in the parking lot.
CIA agents and Awakened people rushed to where he was.
He threw his coat to one Awakened person.
“Remember the smell. It’s what James wore. From now on, that smell will come.” “Track it. You must never miss it.”
The agents’ faces hardened when they heard that they were subject to first-level arrest.
“Contact the FBI as well. Gather all the people we can and search Manhattan. We smelled it, so if we miss it, it’s up to us.
“Understood!”
Agents and other awakeners ran after the awakened person in the lead.
Seeing the agents and the awakened person running with their guns drawn, the citizens quickly ran away.
I wanted to chase Budd as well, but now I had to go to Washington.
President I had to participate in issuing this new order.
*
For a long time, the image that was coming out of the New York underground gradually decreased.
Anger and hatred toward the awakened. It was an image that brainwashed all American citizens for a long time.
The image gradually decreased. Unfortunately, people did not come to their senses right away. Just
because the image was reduced did not mean that the brainwashing would be lifted immediately.
The hatred of awakened people was already hardened into their own thoughts among most people. It would take
a long time for the hatred of awakened people to disappear and return to its original state. This seemed necessary.
Instead of the image spreading across the country decreasing, a new image was poured into one place, Washington.
It was an image telling people to hate the enemy who is currently fighting the U.S. military.
The image was several times stronger than before, including ordinary people, government officials, and the president in Washington. The U.S. president, who was in the Oval Office of the White House, pressed his forehead due to a
sudden headache.
Something was pouring into his head.
“Keuuuuu.”
He quickly took headache medicine, but the headache did not subside easily.
“Damn it! Why do I have a headache again?”
As the pain got worse, he got angry.
He was angry.
He was angry at the Awakened. He was angry
at the Awakened who attacked the American soldiers. He was angry
at the South American Allied Forces that stopped the American soldiers. He was angry
at the South American people who resisted the American soldiers. Fortunately
, the pain went away over time. But the anger did not go away.
“I was wrong. I need to call another meeting.”
It was an enemy that attacked the United States. They treated such an enemy too softly.
“If you give them a stinging taste, they will quickly surrender.”
There was no reason to sacrifice precious young Americans when he had the weapons to use.
He immediately picked up the phone and said,
“Reconvene the National Security Council! Now!”
“Okay, I understand.”
The secretary seemed to be in a bit of pain as he answered, but the president was in no condition to care about that. “If you’re going to
show off, it would be a good idea to show it to other enemies as well…”
He looked at the globe next to his desk.
A peninsular country hanging off the eastern tip of Asia.
The only country in the Eurasian Union that does not have nuclear weapons caught my eye.
While he was visiting Korea, the cabinet members who received the call headed to the White House.
Because they were in a hurry, their clothes were different, but their expressions were the same.
Their faces were filled with anger towards their enemies.
*
Dark night.
Wow! Wow! Wow!
The quiet back alleys of Manhattan were very noisy.
After the night curfew was implemented, Manhattan at night was quieter than darkness.
But today it seemed like things were back to before the curfew.
Noisy dogs, people yelling, and the flickering lights of headlights and flashlights turned the back alleys of Manhattan into a nightclub.
“Chase! “Don’t miss it!”
“Be sure to check! Don’t trust your colleagues or superiors! “Be sure to check your identity!”
Wow! Wow! Wow!
And the loud sound was heading towards one place.
“Huh huh huh huh.”
There, a man with an unrecognizable face was breathing hard.
He was James.
“I didn’t expect to get caught this quickly…”
I thought I could at least get to the hideout. I was planning on taking a shower and changing clothes there… but I couldn’t even get halfway to the retreat.
“They’re desperate too.”
His position as the former head of the EV branch was also a problem, but more than that, he seemed to have offended the government too much with his pirate broadcasts.
Although the broadcast could not turn away the anger against the Awakened, the wrongful war and suppression of freedom was able to get enough response from the people.
The protests and demonstrations currently taking place across the United States are often due to his broadcasts.
Of course, broadcasting alone was not enough to help with the demonstration.
He linked up with the awakened people who were hiding, helped with demonstrations, and searched for government secrets.
In the meantime, most of his characteristics were revealed, but thanks to that, we were able to get the scoop we have now.
“Would you like to become a reporter after work?”
Surprisingly, this job suited me well.
“Well, it might just be a dream.”
It seemed impossible to leave this place today.
The area was already surrounded by the FBI, and awakened people and CIA agents were tracking him.
It was impossible for him to escape since he was being chased by not only a dog but also a tracking awakener with dog-like characteristics.
“Instead of escaping, he is a swindler.”
I was properly tricked. The place he was now was a dead end with all directions blocked.
A combat awakened person might be able to climb the wall and escape, but he was a special awakened person whose physical strength did not increase much.
Thanks to his second awakening, he was able to imitate other people, but it was impossible for him to demonstrate superhuman strength.
He sighed at himself for doing something stupid and took the phone out of his pocket.
“Still, I have to tell you and die.”
The phone was turned off while undercover.
If I had known this would happen, I would have turned it on when I left the subway station.
“I guess it doesn’t matter.”
He turned it on and pressed the designated number. It was a number that connected directly to Eve.
Of course, it wasn’t much when Eve received it, but if she left the voice here, she would hear it later.
“I hope I don’t procrastinate too much…”
He was a person with a lot of work to do. It was difficult to expect him to move right away because of the monster underground in New York.
Tooruururu….
The phone rang and boom
! Boom! Boom!
From across the alley, a light and the sound of a dog barking were heard:
“Hurry.”
Fortunately, the call was connected right away. Fortunately, it wasn’t an answering machine.
-James! Per…
“This is James. I’m running out of time, so I’ll talk quickly. There is a brain-shaped monster in the basement of Fort Hamilton Parkway Station in Manhattan, New York. Director of the CIA. “They’re hiding this monster, and I don’t know if they’re experimenting on it or doing something else.”
A loud voice came from the phone, but James ignored it and explained quickly. There
was no time. Awakenings and people were already showing up.
After a hasty explanation, he finally realized that the voice coming from the phone was not Eve. “ Are
you Kay?”
-Please call me Kyung-hoon.
James smiled at Kyung-hoon’s words.
“I guess I’m finally thinking of going out. “It took a long time.”
Others may not have known, but James knew that Kyung-hoon was the owner of EV.
This was because only James knew how EV’s money and instructions flowed.
“Unfortunately I won’t be able to see that.”
The awakened people and agents running down the alley were fully armed. They seemed to have no intention of capturing them alive.
James raised both hands holding the phone.
There was a lot to talk about. I was thinking of buying some time.
Unfortunately, it was impossible to save time. The agents stopped and pointed their rifles at him.
The Awakened took up their weapons and the agents put their fingers on the triggers.
“It was a good time. Please take care of those left behind.”
He closed his eyes after saying his last words.
Memories of the past passed before my eyes.
An answer came from the phone.
-I refuse. You take responsibility for it people.
James opened his eyes at the unexpected answer.
And then he saw the Awoken and Agents looking up.
He also looked up.
Shuaaaaaa!
People were falling from the sky. No, it was falling down.
Right where the awakened people and agents are.
The agents were surprised and fired their guns into the sky.
Ta-ta-ta-tang!
But the bullets just bounced off in vain.
The next moment he crashed to the floor.
bang!
The floor caved in with a loud noise. Awakened people and agents were flying in all directions.
The agents lost their lives on the spot, and the awakened people were only left writhing in their places.
Kyung-hoon, who had blown away the people, turned around.
“Why did you turn off your phone? I ran to every building in Manhattan looking for James.”
James, whose legs gave out, fell to the floor.
