The Degree
Undercover

It took some time for Terumi to calm herself down again. In addition, Ray needed to listen to some lectures from him from being injured to the point of losing his hand.

Although Ray was uncomfortable with the situation, but he remained silent and waited until Terumi was satisfied with his anger. It took longer than expected, but it was good because Terumi finally regained her composure.

“Now first of all ... What happened to Erina?” ray asked as he stared intently at the woman who was just peeking at the door.

When Ray looked at him, Erina was stunned and started hiding, she seemed to be able to jump anytime into the hole so as not to meet with Ray's eyes.

“Ah, it's a long story,” Terumi said with a complicated face. “To be honest I myself do not know for sure what happened.”

Terumi explained that when she first arrived in the outside world, only a few minutes passed by Erina suddenly stiffened and lost her memory. In the end he was unconscious for two whole days so Terumi had to take care of him.

Not only memory and forgetting her identity, Erina became useless because she became a lousy person in everything. Often he rips clothes when trying to wear clothes, falls while walking or even problems such as shivering his own tongue when eating.

“It was a really hard time for me to take care of her. I'm like I'm taking care of a big baby.”

Ray started thinking a little bit about it. If Erina had completely forgotten her memory, then it was natural that her attitude was completely different from what Ray knew. But between forgetting that memory is genuine or fake is another matter.

‘There is a possibility when Rani and Rina's deaths occur, Erina regains control over her. However he may be planning on stabbing me from behind and pretending to forget the memory.’

Although only an assumption but Ray was quite worried that it happened. Only a fool who doesn't worry about variables can destroy it.

In addition, Ray can not let the cancer around him if he does not want other parts infected. Ray has also made a decision to jump directly into the battlefield and no longer manipulate things from behind the scenes.

“So, can it be concluded that Erina lost her memory for no apparent reason? It happened when you arrived in Jakarta. To be sure, is there a collision or anything you experienced at that time?”

Terumi thought a little before answering. He then shook his head.

“I don't think, even I myself don't feel moving or anything while inside the capsule. When I opened my eyes, I was already in the public toilet.”

Terumi won't lie, at least Ray's sure he can hold that line. It's just Erina something else. Whether the amnesia is genuine or not, Ray is unsure.

‘Well, we'd better put this problem on hold. Let time prove it.’

If the memory loss is a falsehood, Ray is quite sure will be able to read the unnatural movements made by Erina. No matter if Erina was a great actor, there would eventually come a time when she was exhausted and made mistakes.

Even if that time does not happen, in the end Ray can throw it away at any time if it is not needed. It's natural to remove waste that is no longer useful or can rot later, right?

“Let's finish this, we change the course,” said Ray. “Have you heard from Leo and Eric?”

Terumi now looks increasingly worried, maybe after seeing Ray's condition is quite sad to make him have bad thoughts about Leo and Eric.

“I don't know either. Despite having visited the post office periodically as we agreed, they still have not reported anything.”

That's quite worrying, but Ray's sure the two guys won't have bad luck. For some things Ray feels that Leo has a lot of luck. If the feeling is right then nothing bad should happen.

“Omong-by the way if you don't mind .. may I know the details of why this can all happen?” terumi asked with a bit of trouble.

He may consider Ray's feelings when asking, but it's still hard to resist the curiosity.

Honestly, Ray himself knew that Terumi would ask for details. Although there was some doubt in his heart for not knowing how best to convey it.

“I'm also curious why you are also involved with those people,” Terumi said. “No problem if you don't want to talk about it ..”

“Well, this happened suddenly,” Ray said as he closed his eyes. “Honestly, I made cooperation with Indri and the others. This is something important and related to Degree.” users

Terumi seemed surprised by it, but it seemed that her focus was not into it.

“What is possible ... they tried to kill you with that explosion?” Terumi suddenly boarded the apoplexy, but Ray immediately continued his words.

“No way, they weren't stupid enough to kill themselves even to sacrifice Guren the liar.”

Thanks to the massive explosion, Guren had to accept his death with grief. It was confirmed because there was no way anyone could have survived the explosion at such a close distance.

“The reason I worked with them is because of this bastard. In Indri's group, the twin girls seem to have been killed somehow. Even that bastard dared to show himself when giving the bomb to us.”

Ray still clearly remembered it as if it had just happened yesterday, even though it had been two weeks, Ray could still feel the tension and anger of that day.

“So that means you already know the culprit? Who is he?” terumi asked in a hurry.

Ray opened his eyes and stared at Terumi flatly, “The culprit is you.”

The face that gave the bomb along with the battered Guren was Terumi's face.

Terumi was certainly shaken by it and choked on her own breath, her reaction was natural, enough for Ray to confirm that she was not involved.

“More precisely, this perpetrator used your face when launching the action. Besides, this fucker also used my face to kill that twin girl.”

“I honestly don't care if he makes a mess here and there, but if using my face when doing so, then it can't be tolerated.”

Ray receives direct cooperation with Indri because his face is abused to commit crimes. Even now that person might use Terumi's face to act.

“It ... how could something like that happen? Did he use a trick to do it?”

“I'm not sure but it must have been caused by Degree. I hope nothing bad happens.”

...[*****]...

Elsewhere, around monas are beautiful and pleasant to behold. Two men were looking at him in silence.

The two people were Leo and Eric whose faces looked so tired and depressed.

“It's a hard city to live in,” Leo said, sighing very long.

“You're right. Why didn't Ray tell you anything like this earlier?” eric said a little annoyed.

They managed to survive the crash when they first arrived, despite having to stay overnight at the police station as both looked suspicious and disturbed pedestrians.

Lucky because the police force is quite good and there are some who are fluent in English. The two somehow managed to create an identity and an account.

The first thing both of them do is buy a smartphone to take advantage of the translate feature because both are not fluent in Indonesian.

Thanks to that they managed to survive in the city, but recently both were robbed while traveling by train.

It is a mistake to put valuables such as mobile phones and cash in the bag. They are lucky to have a credit card in their pocket.

“Although this is painful because the money from the exchange of DP is partly cash. We must be careful next time and utilize wisely.”

DP is very valuable, money is also the same but its value is not comparable to DP. They only have a little money because they only exchange a little DP.

“This may be out of plan, but what if we immediately get together with Terumi or Ray?” said Eric. “We can't live destitute like this. Could-can we go bankrupt because it was stolen continue.”

Leo started thinking about it well. Actually he would have been against the idea, but on the other hand Eric had a point. Both of them obviously could not live in a land that was foreign to them.

“We were lucky enough initially to win the bonus game,” Leo said.

The bonus game that appeared three weeks ago was a unique game from Secret where they had to protect the point points they found.

Eric and Leo were walking around looking for help, when the game came to the unexpected that one of the points appeared near them.

The point in question is in fact a monolith the size of a trash can made of clay. Both had to sleep on the trotolan to guard it and until it was considered insane. When finally the deadline expires, the monolith disintegrates and leaves a flash to be connected to the clock and transfers the promised DP

“Although so I did not expect our actions to disturb many people until finally the law enforcement brought us because we consider us homeless. Is it possible that all that bad luck happened because of your bad luck, Eric?” leo said half-jokingly.

“Well, come to think of it again I was never good at gacha or anything that depended on luck.” Eric casually admitted it.

It is unexpected that Eric takes it seriously and reveals the fact that he is an unlucky carrier.

If Eric's rethinking falls in an ominous place when he first arrives, it seems the statement that he's an unlucky fellow is true.

“You ... amazing still survive after all that.” Leo was amazed and sympathetic at the same time.

“Oi-oi, what do—” mean Eric stopped his sentence from feeling the presence of someone approaching them.

“I didn't think we'd meet here.”

A voice that was no stranger to the two, surely it was beyond anyone's expectation that they would meet so soon.

“Huh, whereas we previously planned to gather with you,” Leo said in a sour tone.

Eric also chuckles to complete Leo's sentence, “That's true, but who would have guessed if we would meet here, Terumi.”

The one who came to them was a beautiful Japanese-born girl, she was Terumi. One of the reliable partners.

“Yeah, I also didn't expect we'd meet so soon. How have you been lately?” terumi asked with a happy smile.

Leo sighed, “This is not easy. We have had a lot of problems up until now. We even had to stay at the police station.”

Terumi just laughed a little, “Ha ha ha, I became curious about what you guys are going through until you have to come to the police station.”

“Yeah, there are a lot of things,” Eric said. “Omong-by the way, have you met Ray?”

As Eric discussed that, Terumi's face was a little sad.

“What's up?” ask Leo. “You look moody.”

“Yes. It's about Ray.”

“What's with him?” ask Eric.

“Dia ... betrayed us. Dan, trying to kill me.”

Eric and Leo were surprised at the same time, they did not expect that Terumi would deliver the unexpected news.

“That's why I'm looking for you guys .. We have to think of a way to kill him before he goes crazy.”
