I Want A Normal Life: No Romance
#14 - General Operations
The next day, at recess. Me, Ivi, and Tino gathered in the cafeteria. Ivi told me and Tino to meet him in the cafeteria at recess, he said to talk about the plan yesterday.
“Alright, we'll start after school later.” Said Ivi with a firm tone.
"I'll call this operation ‘Operation General’!” Said Ivi breaking the table.
“...”
“Why is his name?” Ask Tino.
“Hmm... This is not a secret operation, it is a general operation, anyone can come along if you want.” Answer Ivi.
“What if I invite Love? She can come?” Ask Tino again.
“Umm..”
“I don't think, don't take her,” Ivi said.
“if you can, don't let him know about this..” Further.
“Heee..”.
“You just said that ‘anyone can come if you want’, but just now you said ‘don't take him’, how, anyway?” My complaint.
“No, it's not that I don't want him coming. It's just, I don't want him involved in this.” Ivi.
“Then what? Because he can't walk?”
“Not, that's not what I mean, I really don't want to involve him, and also this is for his good.”
“Huh.. It's up to you.”
...
“Alright, here's my plan.”
Ivi took out a piece of paper that already had her black lines, maybe she would explain that.
“It looks like a school plan.” Tino.
“This is indeed the school plan.”
“...”
“Actually this plan is very simple, see. It is UKS, and it is a.” library
“Why are there those places?” Ask Tino.
“You know yesterday we saw that figure in the library, even he rested in the library, there is a possibility that he lived there.”
“And why is there UKS?”
“That's the room to lure him out, his place is on the 1st floor, and not far from the library. And also, we can not get into the room related to teachers or school employees.”
“Ivi, may I ask?”
“Please, Razox.”
“How long did you make this? And if UKS used to fish ‘Death God’, who would be the bait?”
“Umm... I thought about many things yesterday until I had trouble sleeping, but this simple thing that my common sense could accept,”
“dan for the feed I planned—”
“Wait! Before you continue this.”.
“isn't this too short for you to think all night?”
“Have it, just accept, after all you have a better plan?”
“No heck..”
“Ya, so just follow the flow of my plan..”.
“...”
“So, first of all, I was standing in front of the library, I was standing at the blind spot of the CCTV camera so as not to be seen on the recording. While Tino was on guard in front of the UKS, she also had to stand in the blind spot of the CCTV camera.” Ivi.
“In the meantime, if you're standing in front of the library, and Tino is standing in front of the UKS. Then what should I do?”
“Oiya, your question earlier, you will be the bait.”
“EH?!!”
“No! Nay! I don't want to!”
“Eh?? Wh why?? Though your work is easy, you just stay silent inside UKS.”
“No, I still don't want.”
“Again, as I recall you are the one who was once in-‘kulik’ by ‘Death God’, maybe you can repeat the incident by being our bait.”
“Tapkan you once said that Tino had been kidnapped too, he ‘kan can be bait too.”
“Iya I know that, but you are more suitable to be bait.”
“And also, listen to me, so look at it..”.
“Tino watches over UKS until ‘The Death God’ enters the UKS, if he has entered the UKS and arrested Razox, and after that, he will definitely come out again to go to the library, then me and Tino will go in to capture ‘Death God’ before he erases your memory, how?”
“Wowowo, I really did not dare to risk my life so.”
“I told you we'd set you free before he erased your memory.”
“It sounds easy.” Tino.
“That's because your part is easy..”
“Razox, your part is also easy.” Ivi.
“Uhhh... You must take responsibility if anything happens with me.”.
“It's easy..”.
...
“Well, now, what object is roughly suitable to capture him?” Ask Ivi.
“Hah?! You haven't determined that yet? So what were you doing last night?!!” This conversation is enough to piss me off.
“Ohh... last night, I thought of all the plans we could do.” Reply Ivi innocently.
“This is my plan anyway! Do you have a better plan?!” Suddenly Ivi grabbed my collar.
“Ma-sorry! All right, I'll do it!”
Ivi instantly released her grip.
“Thank you.”
“And this is for us to communicate later.” Ivi pulled out another thing.
3 Walkie-talkies, looks like it's for the three of us.
“Where did you get this?” Ask Tino.
“It doesn't matter, now just take it.”
“Remember, later after school we gather again.”
---
After school, we did what Ivi told us to do, all in their respective positions, including me who is already in the UKS, no matter what I do here. I chose to sleep in bed and play the phone to relieve boredom. I hope the internet will entertain me.
...
“Hahaha..”.
...
Bzzt
“Diviana logged in, report the situation! Replace.”
The walkie-talkie let out a sound, and Ivi's voice immediately sounded.
“Tino in, no signs of ‘Death God’ fromini. Replace.”
“Huh..”.
I felt so lazy to do this, to the point that I sighed.
“Razox login, no change also here. Replace.”
Bzzt
“Diviana is in, do you know? I was going to take one more person to watch over the CCTV in the library, I thought of taking Kevin, but he came home. I also wanted to invite others to come along, but there was no one else at school. Change”
“Tino in, is CCTV real-time? Replace.”
“Diviana came in, I don't know either, but there's no harm in trying, ‘ right? Diviana out.”
“Razox came in, apparently not, because if it did, then we should have been arrested yesterday for going into the library. Razox out.”
“Diviana came in, you had a point too, but we could have been let in by then. Diviana out.”
“...”
I shouldn't have wasted my strength by replying to the message, if there was no change in Tino's place, then there wouldn't be any change in my place either, because Tino was actually watching me.
“Huh..”.
...
...
...
I've watched a lot of videos, it's been 30 minutes, I don't feel that and it's like everything else.
Bzzt
“Diviana logged in, why ‘Dewa Dying’ didn't show up too, huh? It's been 30 minutes. Replace.”
“Tino in, I don't know why. Replace.”
“These people..”.
“Razox is in, don't you remember? We were planning this in the school cafeteria, and there was a CCTV camera pointing at us, ‘The God of Death’ already knows our plan to catch him. Change”
“Tino in, there's a point to that as well. Tino out.”
“Diviana came in, in your opinion, why did ‘Dewa Dying’ appear at that time? Replace.”
“Razox came in, I don't know, Tino must have been. Replace.”
“Diviana came in, if I remember. Yesterday ‘The Death God’ appeared when we went into the employee special room in the library. How about we try that again? Maybe we can catch that figure. Replace.”
“Razox in, you're crazy, huh? What if you get caught and this plan you've designed fails?”
“Diviana came in, I didn't say that I was going in there, I said we were going in there together. Replace.”
”...”
“...”
“Razox?"
“You're still there? Razox?”
“Yes, I'm still here.”
“We will go into the library together, I wait for you here, Diviana out.”
Bzzt
“Tino in, I doubt if we can find ‘Death God’ if we go to the library. Yesterday it seemed like the figure did not know that we were in his room. Replace.”
“Razox came in, there's no way he didn't know, he also knew the whole school through CCTV. Replace.”
“Diviana entered, if ‘Dewa Dying’ knows the state of the school at that time, it should only be by entering the library yesterday, we were immediately arrested. Replace.”
“Tino is in, but I remain in doubt about it.”
“Diviana came in, well then, I'm the one who came in, Tino, please replace me in front of the library, and Razox, keep your eyes open. Diviana out.”
Bzzt
“Diviana! Wait!”
“...”
Bzzt
“Diviana came in, I'm already in the library, it's still like yesterday. Diviana out.”
Bzzt
“Diviana! Hide quickly! I saw someone heading to the library.”
“Eh? Who?”
“It looks like ‘Death God’, his clothes show that it's him.”
“What?! She instantly appeared?!”
“Razox, Tino, please come here, help me...”.
I heard that voice in a frightened tone, he really asked for help.
It got me up out of bed and out of the UKS, running towards the library.
Arriving there, I saw Tino eavesdropping on the library door.
“What are you doing? Why aren't you logged in?”
“I'm waiting for you, I don't dare to enter alone.”
“Alright, now that I've come, let's go in.”
BEEPING
We entered the library, and the situation was as Ivi had told us, nothing had changed. And this place is deserted.
“Tino, try to contact Ivi.”
“Diviana, come in, it's Tino, I've been with Razox. Replace.”
“...”
“...”
There was no reply from Ivi.
“How is this? What if it turns out he's been caught?” Tino immediately looked panicked.
He freaked me out too.
KRRIIEETT
There was a door open from the room.
“There's come! Hurry hide!” Tino immediately ran to a nearby table to hide under it.
I don't know where to hide.
I just ran to the corner and stood in the darkness that had no light.
Ssshhhhhc....
“Huhhh... My scope seems too small..”.
I heard people complaining coming from the origin of the sound of the door from, it is ‘God of Death’, and also...
... I don't hear the sound of her footsteps! Even when he stepped on the stairs.
The figure came out of the library, we came out of our hiding place.
“It was...” Tino was confused by what he saw.
“Ba-how can you hide in the open like that?”
“I... I don't know, I just kept quiet earlier.”
“Uhh... forget about it, most importantly, we still survived.”
Tino walked into the staff room.
“If in my opinion, Ivi is here.”
“Why can you think like that?”
“I don't see Ivi here, surely she's in there, in place yesterday maybe.”
“Come, we're in.” Take Tino down the stairs.
I followed him too.
...
“Diviana!!! You there?!” Shouted Tino.
“Hey, don't shout, your voice will be heard by him.”
“Eh? Heard by who? This space ‘kan soundproof.”
“Hmmm... You're right, I forgot.”
“Iviii!!”
“Iviii!!” I also screamed.
“Iviii!!”
“...”
“Hoii!! Did you hear us?!!”
“...”
“Tino??!! Is that you?!!”
Finally someone called out to our screams.
And the voice was getting closer as he ran towards us.
“Tino! Razox!”
It was Ivi, she who ran towards us and answered our call shouts. Me and Tino were immediately relieved when they saw Ivi.
“Ivi, thank goodness you're okay.”
“I told you he was there.” Tino.
“What was ‘The Death God’ did here?” Ask Tino.
“Ya.. it looks like she just took a short break here.” Answer Ivi.
“And also, I heard that the CCTV of this school is not real-time.” Further.
“I've expected..” Said Tino while holding her chin.
“So, what's next?” My toot.
“’Death God’ will definitely come back here, this is our chance to catch him!” Said Ivi who was full of spirit.
Ivi immediately picked up a blanket on the mattress that was near us.
“Three of us and him alone, surely he's easy for us to catch.” Ivi.
“We will catch it with this!”
“Eh? What do you mean?”
“It's easy, we'll catch him when he gets into this room, we're all hiding behind the door.” Saying with confidence.
“It's very predictable.” My speech.
“That's like when I was a kid back then, I love doing that with my dad when he gets home from work.” Tino.
“...”
“Uhh, sorry, not I mean.” Suddenly Tino bowed down apologizing to me, but I thought nothing of it.
“Eh? What's up?” Ask Ivi.
“No, no, let's get there now.” Tino dodged and walked straight away.
“...” Ivi looked at Tino with a confused look.
...
We stand at the door so that when ‘Death God’ comes in, we instantly catch him using that blanket.
“We will know it soon..”
...
...
...
Up to 3 hours more we, just stand at the door without making any movement.
“AGain he did not come.” Complain Tino.
“Why, yes?”
“...”
We all look confused because of that.
“Uh, I just remembered,” Said Ivi.
“you must be when you enter the library, you just enter.”
Tino nodded slowly which meant yes.
“He should not have come here. He already knows we're here,”
“you do not realize that when you are in your library is in the range of CCTV cameras.” Ivi.
“We have to repeat the plan. I'll think of a new strategy.”
“Let's go home.” Take Ivi who sounds disappointed.
“Wait!” I'm holding them.
They stopped and saw me.
“So you said that if you heard about the CCTV camera, the CCTV camera is not real-time, or easily ‘The God of Death’ knows all the movements seen on CCTV. But if that's true, why would he know that we're here and deliberately didn't come? Did you not hear wrong, Ivi?”
“Uhhh.. This school CCTV system is indeed confusing, I do not understand.” Complain Tino.
“Already Razox, let's go home and I'll rearrange the plan. I got confused thinking about your words.” Ivi.
“...”
“Good..”.
We came out of the library, I felt lethargic, my path became heavy, it seemed like I was disappointed, when what should be disappointed was Ivi.
“Diviana! See it!” Shouted Tino.
Tino pointed at something, I saw what she was pointing at.
...
“That's ‘Death God’! Chase!” Shouted Ivi who immediately ran.
Me and Tino directly followed Ivi to pursue ‘Death God’.
It seems like he knew that he was being chased without looking back, it seems that he was getting faster away from us.
We chased ‘Death God’ who ascended to the top floor through the stairs.
Up again.
And up again.
“Eh?”
We stopped when we went to the 4th floor.
“What is this?”
Stairs to the 4th floor are closed, how can the ‘Death God of’ pass?
“Wait a minute, as long as I'm here at school, I've never seen 2nd & 3rd grade. 3 Floor for 1st class, 2nd floor for 2nd class, and 4th floor for 3rd class. Where are they?” Ask Tino.
“I don't know, it seems like 2nd graders are more often silent in class, after all we have seen it when they were distributing brochures on the first day.” My answer.
“And there is no class 3, this school only existed 2 years ago. We are the second generation of this school.” Added Ivi.
“Ohh. Maybe because no one uses space on the 4th floor, so closed like this.”
“Shut up, someone came.” Tino.
I heard it too, the sound of footsteps coming here.
“That must be ‘Death God’, Quickly hide!” Ivi immediately ran.
“But this is open space, hide where? And there's no way it's ‘Death God’, earlier when I was in the library, I didn't even hear the sound of his footsteps.”
“Razox!” Shouted Tino.
“Eh?!!”
I looked towards Tino's voice, and she had already disappeared.
“Tino! Where are you?”
Ivi is also not around, there is no one else around me.
“Tino, Ivi.”
I'mfrightened...
“...”
On the side wall was a mirror, I accidentally looked into that mirror.
I looked at the mirror, there was someone behind me.
“It...”
‘Death God’
