1108 Using The Night Eye
Author’s Note: Not Fixed
——————-
Both of them had been well trained in the MBO in this aspect so they could use their respective abilities to keep out of sight till they achieved their goals.
‘Hmm… so far he has made two turns. If he had kept goimg straight, it would have led to the upper district,’ Gustav took note after tailing for about thirty minutes.
While, Gustav and E.E both tailed their suspects, they were starting to witness similar case scenarios.
Both suspects kept moving around the slums repeatedly. They circled the slums multiple times with Gustav and E.E both following them.
It was starting to look like they were intoxicated due to the aimless circulation around the slums yet both of the kept tailing their suspects even after a few hours had gone back.
Gustav kept tailing his suspect till he arrived at the far east of the slums. The suspect finally made a stop after arriving at the edge of the slums which looked like a way out of the city.
However, upon arriving here the suspect came to a stop. Gustav placed his back against a piece of block and blended his entire frame to look like that after noticing the suspect was looking around.
At this same instant he sensed the approach of two other people.
‘Hmm?’ He turned to the left and noticed the second suspect approaching this location as well.
E.E happened to be a couple of feet away and hiding his presence.
‘So they were both heading here…’ Gustav and E.E thoughts aligned as they each noticed the presence of both suspects.
E.E was doing a great job of concealing himself but he couldn’t see Gustav which was why they couldn’t give each other a signals at the moment.
Gustav had completely blended his presence into the environment so much, it would be close to impossible for a high level Mixedblood to even spot him. Talk more of two suspects who didn’t have abilities.
As both suspects arrived at this dead end, they stood right beside each other.
“We’re you followed?”
“No, you?”
“Not at all,”
“Did you finish it?”
“I did, what about you?”
“Same here,”
Both of them exchanged a cryptic dialogue for a few minutes.
Despite not knowing the context behind their dialogue Gustav listened very carefully not missing any details so if he managed to uncover something in the near future, he would be able to link things rightfully.
After their dialogue ended, both of them turned to face each other and knelt on the ground.
This action stunned Gustav and E.E as they both wondered what these two were up to.
In the next instant, they raised two fingers each from their left and right arms before crossing their fingers with each other.
Both suspects were now on the ground making a weird sign by crossing both fingers but in the next moment, Gustav and E.E understood why.
Zhrrrìiiihhhhh~
A long metallic looking pole poked out from the ground in front. After seeing this pole, both suspects stood to their feet and placed their hands on the pole.
Ghhhrrrriiiiihhhhhh~
The ground opened up in the next instant shooting out a blinding light and they both disappeared.
After disappearing, E.E shifted out of his hiding place and was about to approach the exact spot the two culprits were positioned initially when…
Swwwooosshh~
An invisible figure sped across and disappeared into the distance along with him.
A blast of wind scattered across the vicinity but the sources were unseen.
–
“Why did you stop me from heading there?” E.E questioned after they had gotten quite a distance from the initial location.
“There could be hidden cams… we’d be uncovering ourselves if we actively approached that area after what had happened despite using a different identity,” Gustav voiced out.
“Hmm, did you check?” E.E inquired.
“We’ve passed that location before during the day while we were scouring the slums… and no I didn’t spot anything out of place. I made sure to observe using my abilities yet I didn’t uncover anything…” Gustav purposely said every word firmly so E.E could understand.
“They’re able to construct technologies that can be hidden from your high perception?” E.E had to admit he was surprised.
“Indeed they have. I might have to take it up a notch if I’m going to be able to uncover more from that location without alerting them,” Gustav responded.
This wasn’t the first time something like this was happening where he was unable to sense something related to the Genxodus that he should have.
‘This took up a lot of energy the last time i tried it but it might be the best option in uncovering other hidden areas…’ Gustav thought.
(“Are you about to use the night eye?”) The system questioned internally.
‘Yes,’ Gustav replied.
(“Move to a safe spot first,”) The system advised.
‘You know I have to be out in the open to use it, right?’
(“Duh… who gave you the ability in the first place,”) The system voiced like a little girl rolling her eyes.
Gustav; “…”
Gustav and E.E moved to a more secluded spot in the slums and Gustav proceeded to squat.
He placed a hand on his left eye and placed the other on the ground before activating an ability.
[God Eyes Has Been Activated]
“All seeing vision of the night…” Gustav muttered as his eyes changed from crimson and green glow into sky blue.
His exposed right eye had entirely turned completely blue.
Zzhhhiiinnn~
Gustav’s body cranked up like he was having a seizure in the next instant as…

“For now, we observe,” Gustav whispered.
p-A- n-d-A-n-0-v-e-1、(c)om “I take dibs on the one 6 ‘o clock,” E.E whispered back before they both seperated and moved to different parts of this demolished building.
Despite the fact that this building wasalmost completely run down, it still had some higher floors and missing stairways.
The slum touts usually made their way to the upper incompete floors regardless. Some would climb.
This made the upper floors in use as well.
Gustav could already tell that there were over two hundred slum dwellers in this decimated building alone which was most likely very large when it was a complete building.
Now that E.E and Gustav had focused on one of each suspects, they would have to secretly follow these two wherever they went.
For the next three to four hours, both suspects didn’t engage in any suspicious acts besides the games that were ongoing in this part of the slums.
They mingled with the others, smoking, frolicking and drinking. Gustav and E.E also pretended to join in with the games they played here.
Gustav secretly activated God Eyes to scan both suspects and confirmed they weren’t Mixedbloods.
The one in a wrapper like cloth had a buzz cut and slight pot belly but that was about it.
While the other one with a tattered brown clothing, was bald and had a tattoo on his inner thigh.
They were truly ordinary from what he could see.
A couple hours later when it was midnight, the two finally moved out of the building.
The way both of them decided to leave the building at the same time was almost as if it had been pre planned.
Gustav and E.E also had to move at this point and followed both of them outside.
It wasn’t abnormal to move around but the timing was a bit too suspicious.
However, E.E and Gustav were soon met with a bit of confusion after both figures moved in opposite directions.
After getting out, they didn’t even make contact with each other or share any form of hidden message. They just went in opposite directions.
Gustav followed the one with the pot belly and wrapper like cloth while E.E followed the bald one who Gustav noticed had a tattoo on his inner thigh.
They could still communicate with each other if they wanted to so going in opposite directions wasn’t much of a problem.
They decided to stay true to the goal and observe these two for the rest of the night.
Gustav completely erased his presence as he moved while E.E kept a very close distance and would sink into the vortex he created on the ground whenever the one he was tailing turned around.
Both of them had been well trained in the MBO in this aspect so they could use their respective abilities to keep out of sight till they achieved their goals.
‘Hmm… so far he has made two turns. If he had kept goimg straight, it would have led to the upper district,’ Gustav took note after tailing for about thirty minutes.
