Omniscient First-Person’s Viewpoint - Chapter 164

EP.163 Welcome to the Back Alley

Abbey wore a uniform after a long time.

The casual clothes I liked were put back in packets, and the washed and carefully stored uniforms were put into the biometric terminal. A feeling of pressure that is hard to imitate in everyday clothes, so a slightly unfamiliar sensation covered my whole body.

It’s something I’ve worn every day for years. Abby quickly got used to it.

I was told to nurse Anna, but the military captain is not a nurse.

Abby is a telecommunications soldier. Aside from conveying information to various parts of the military with unique magic, the collection of information is also the mission of the signal soldier.

I can’t do anything by Anna’s side, but there are things I can do as Captain Abbey.

“Tracking down an entity that disturbs the peace.”

The captain put on his hard hair and left the room.

“Anna said she went to the market in District 13. It must have headed for the Citizens’ Market in District 13.”

Citizens’ market in District 13 that sells packet food and various small tools necessary for low-level citizens.

It is allowed to sell up to level 2 luxury items, so ordinary people who have made money visit it once in a while.

As such, there are pickpockets and robbers aiming for citizens’ money, but this is a military country. When you get caught, the risk is enormous, so you can’t even try with enough determination, and if you’re not that careful, you’ll soon be stepped on and dragged to the workhouse.

“Since misconduct has been discovered by the principal, the principal has an obligation to gather information about this case.”

You cannot leave it to the police or the gendarmerie. Even if a 0-level citizen commits a crime, they do not investigate. I just record it with the intention of overwriting it on the criminals who will be caught later.

So Aby decided to act as a captain. I decided to gather undeniable evidence and hand it over to the military police.

I can’t reveal my identity as a signal soldier, but the captain is a captain. she deserved it

“I’m going to die anyway…”

As I spit out those words, my body stiffened for a while. Abby made up her mind and took a step forward.

Maybe it’s because he went through a lot of fun things before he died.

Is it because I experienced more new things?

Abby was no longer afraid of death. If I could die with these memories, I thought it would be okay.

“I will gather information for Anna before we go.”

With a firm resolve, Aby walked the streets of the military district.

It is a road where laborers returning from night shift work come and go sparsely. Arriving at District 13, Abbie stood with her back to the wall of a large building.

Place both palms on the wall and spread mana in all directions. A faint light of magic spread through her hand.

Partially blooming morning glory vines.

Rooted in the fingers, an intangible aura entwines the walls and floor. The morning glory vine, which was looking for a place to wrap and climb, instinctively sensed the direction of the magical energy and jumped on board.

The vine that climbed up using the magic transmission metal as a support eventually reached its end. The magic power that was looking for an empty place permeated through the gap. and.

Ki-Geek Kick.

A ‘window’ that existed somewhere in the military and was prepared only for signal soldiers raised its head with a harsh metallic sound.

A short-distance type that spreads and synchronizes unique magic at close range, rather than remote access using a biological terminal.

AB’s unique magic is morning glory. Synchronization magic that specializes in short-range erosion.

The fact that she was assigned nearly 50 synchro-type magic golems called ‘windows’ by the military was due to her unique magic properties.

All the windows assigned to her were broken. I haven’t had a chance to unfold it so far…

“This is part of information gathering. The communications soldier has the authority to handle the magic golems located throughout the military.”

Synchronization magic leaves no trace. Therefore, this is not an act of revealing one’s identity.

In the first place, Abbey handles golems only for information gathering. There was no way for the golem to step out directly, and there was no way for people to see it.

So this is not a rule violation. Having convinced herself like that, Abbie raised her head.

And all the golems entangled in the vines opened their eyes at once.

“Use the authority of the main building.”

Because it is extremely principled, it is a gap that has been squeezed into as a rule.

Invisible vines entwine a small golem contained at the top of the clock tower, a golem built on the roof of a building looking down, and a hidden head-only golem under a searchlight.

The golems placed here and there opened their eyes all at once, responding to the signalman’s sympathy. Abbey, who obtained control of the golem, displayed her magical powers.

windows parallel connection. Kaleidoscope.

And the dozens of visions that shined in different places broke into pieces like broken windows and came into Abbey’s field of vision.

Despite the dark night, the overwhelming amount of information digging into the brain makes one’s head dizzy. Abbie stumbled and leaned against the wall even more.

However, Abbey was a specialist in handling information and was one of the few telecommunicationsmen capable of parallel access. The united roots greedily sucked up information from all kinds of vines. Dozens of lights shone through her blue eyes.

“Start exploring.”

Pupils move quickly. Compare and analyze the scene reflected in various places of the visual field. The flow of people, the heterogeneous speed, the odd noise, a sight that shouldn’t exist.

She is the eyes, ears and mouth of the military.

The signalman is the head of the military. Nerves through which fragmented information flows.

Therefore, access to information about their identities is permitted only at the level of a general, and even if it is a general, it cannot be used privately.

“Exploration Exploration Exploration.”

There is no way to find them if they enter the enclosed building, but Abby expected them to move around in the middle of the night. If you stole something, you want to dispose of it before the next day.

“Search, search, search, search, search…”

While sitting there, AB was looking around the streets of District 13 and found a man with suspicious behavior. A man with blood dripping from his shoulder was running with a limp, clutching his stomach.

It looks closer to the victim than the perpetrator, but anyway, the scene clearly suspects the crime.

“End of search.”

Abbey disconnected from the other golem and headed towards where the Behemoth was found.

If you think about the escape route, the behemoth passes through the next block. After finishing the calculation, Aby headed to the next block one step ahead.

And just at that moment, I ran into a behemoth who was running in fear. The behemoth opened his eyes wide when he saw Abbie’s attire.

“officer?!”

If he were a criminal robber, he would run away or be afraid at the sight of Abbey. If you are the victim of being chased by a robber, you will ask for help.

It didn’t matter if Abbie wasn’t the robber he was looking for. There weren’t that many people who committed crimes in the military, so if you tracked down, one day you would find the robber who attacked Anna.

It was time for Abby to come up with countermeasures for the two situations.

“I was wrong! catch me! I am number one!”

However, the attitude of the giant was different from anything else.

The behemoth, who called himself number 1, took a deep breath and knelt in front of Abbie.

“I robbed! Like No. 1 No. 2 No. 3! No. 2 is Milsen and No. 3 is Galen! Please catch me!”

Although this was within the expected range, it is not possible to say that it is a communication soldier if you panic. Abby responded sternly.

“…I hope you can explain clearly what is going on.”

“I don’t have time for that!”

The behemoth appeared to have lost its mind. Or something urgent. Or both. Abbey’s common sense could not explain it otherwise.

Because he was confessing to the crime with his stomach clenched and his face covered in pain and fear.

“No. No. 2, no, that bastard Milsen notified the organization. There’s gold in my stomach…! Everyone is running to slit my stomach…!”

“It is difficult to understand the full story of the incident, but it is expected that you feel a threat to your safety. Are you requesting personal protection?”

“that’s right! that’s right! Protect the city!”

The behemoth nodded frantically. Anyway, Abby asked to get some information.

“Accept. But before that, we ask for information from you. In order to know the whole story, you need to know what you took from whom and what you did to whom.”

“I don’t know who. It was a certain lady who was trying to sell poison or spices in the market… I took it away and liked it, but he… put it in my mouth.”

Under the circumstances, it seemed clear that he had attacked Anna. I didn’t expect to find the culprit so easily.

But finding the culprit and apprehending him were two different things. Because the face of the behemoth was full of fear and pain beyond that.

“He… he was wearing a strange hat. Poisoned glass bottle. to me.”

Number 1, who was muttering, suddenly grabbed his face.

AB has revised its rating. The expression he had been showing before did not contain even a hint of fear compared to his now distorted face.

“Ahhh. magician. that’s right. magician…! he’s clear! Why didn’t I remember…!”

Madly alone, the behemoth now shed tears and grabbed the captain’s trouser hem. The other hand was still holding on to the boat, and he believed that if he let go, the boat would split at any moment.

“please. I don’t want to die this way. What is this… to die from being stabbed in the stomach by comrades you trusted…! me i am to do this I’m sorry I didn’t do this. iced coffee.”

Number 1, who had been begging, suddenly opened her eyes wide. A cold sweat broke out on his face in the chilly night air.

He made a squeaking noise with his twisted tongue as if something had grabbed his head and legs and twisted them around.

“Ahhh. I will not.”

then at some point.

“Quaaaaaagh! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

Number 1 sat down on the ground as it was. As if he had sucked up all the pain in the world by himself, he swung his legs and hit the ground violently. Even though his fists were chapped and his whole body was bruised, he did not stop.

At one point, he rolled his eyes and collapsed. Soap bubbles came out of his mouth. with his life.

In the meantime, there was nothing Abbie could do.

Because AB is a communications soldier, not a military surgeon.

“…Confirm the fact of death. It is a murder case.”

No matter how military it is, murder cases are not left unattended. Murder is a felony that destroys valuable human resources who continue to work, so the murderer pays for it with hard labor.

Because of that, criminals have no choice but to buy themselves. If you make a mistake, you’ll be caught by the military’s vigilance net.

He must be…

“…why are you chasing him in groups during the night?”

The captain looked at the crowds approaching and said, A thin man with cool eyes appeared from beyond the dim shadows of the street with a long sword slung over his shoulder.
