The Joker The Confidence Man
Chapters. 13 Lions Behind the Stone

Back to switch to Diyo who is still in the hospital to see Sayemi's condition while thinking about the letter containing information from the power of time travel.

The clock was showing at 6 pm and Kaye who had arrived in London immediately rushed to the hospital to express her anger at Diyo for playing tricks on her.

Having no other choice because Diyo could not find the perpetrator, Diyo finally tried to do according to the contents of the letter.

Diyo left the hospital and headed to a place where few people, where Diyo did.

"Sip let's do it"

Following the instructions of the letter Diyo smoothed her knife from the waist then stabbed the knife right in her stomach.

Instantly Diyo was struck by thunder entering the nerves of her brain that made Diyo

he immediately fell unconscious.

As written in the letter, Diyo woke up in a vacuum where there were pieces of glass showing the past of Diyo.

Diyo who saw the past impressions on the glass fragments still could not find the perpetrator.

Therefore, Diyo was forced to repeat it from the beginning before the first murder occurred or on September 15, 2022.

"This is the only way to catch the main culprit"

With a little doubt (less sure) Diyo restarted on September 15, 2022.

Already back to the day before the first murder occurred in London, Diyo who had done time travel was now again walking near big ben.

Tergaket then fell on his own because his consciousness in the future had already entered the consciousness of Diyo that existed in the past,although Diyo is still (still) can not believe what has happened but inevitably Diyo must believe because he has experienced it himself.

"Well, okay this time I'll respond to you"

Not wanting to lose a single clue that Diyo had went straight to the murder scene and waited in the cafe around there until the next day arrived.

Not long from Diyo who was waiting at the cafe around the scene there was an unknown person Diyo invited her to talk, that person introduced himself as Wish.

Knowing the name of the person is just a pseudonym Diyo also follows Wish by disguising her name as Joker.

"Diyo here will play the Joker when talking to Wish"

After that Wish and Joker told me about common things about London, such as famous restaurants or famous places in London.

They (Wish and Joker) who playfully tell stories do not feel (realize) the time has passed and now the clock has shown at 6 pm.

Wish who already felt he had to go home at that time immediately said goodbye to go home with the Joker, because he did not want to leave any information that there Joker would remain in the cafe until the cafe was closed.

Feeling bored just being alone there without his friends telling stories because Wish has gone Diyo finally took a walk around to clear his mind while looking at the beautiful scenery in the city of London.

While walking Diyo heard the sound of people beating or the sound of people fighting in a narrow hallway.

Coming to the origin of the voice made Diyo surprised because the one who was fighting was Wish who had just left the cafe where the two of them (Wish and Joker) told her earlier.

"Wish?"

Hearing the Joker's voice makes Wish face directly towards the Joker, not expecting that the Joker will know the bad side of Wish so quickly like this.

Not hearing the words of the Joker, Wish did not beat up the stranger and instead intended to beat up the Joker.

Realizing he will be hit by the Joker instantly avoids the blow from the Wish while taking the stranger away from there.

Seeing the Joker running while carrying the stranger made Wish grow furious (wants to hit) and chase the Joker from behind.

Because running while carrying the Joker can not run at the pace as usual which makes the Joker managed to be captured by Wish.

After successfully capturing the Joker, Wish immediately beat the Joker very strongly right in the Joker's face which made the Joker thrown away and dropped the stranger.

Receiving a violent attack from Wish makes the Joker feel that Wish will be a difficult opponent (not easy) to beat and therefore Joker lures Wish by provoking him that his strike is not painful.

Hearing himself humiliated made Wish go back to chasing the Joker very quickly.

Unlike before the Joker who does not bring people can not be pursued by Wish and instead bring Wish to a quiet place (a few people).

Pausing in a quiet place Wish who saw the Joker only kept silent again launched his fist very hard.

But this time the Joker immediately evaded him very quickly and returned the blow received by the Joker earlier to the Wish who had no defense at all.

Getting a crushing attack from the Joker makes it difficult for Wish to stand back up due to the punch from the very powerful Joker.

Wish that is difficult to stand it finally forced his feet to be able to stand back, seeing that the Joker gave praise to Wish for still wanting to fight him.

Already back standing Wish unceremoniously directly attacked back Joker yand standing upright in front of him, realizing that the Joker kept his distance from Wish and kicked using his right foot right about the face of Wish.

Unlike earlier Wish held a kick from the Joker then hit hard on the face of the Joker using his left hand.

Re-accepting an attack from Wish makes Joker assume he cannot underestimate Wish.

After that they both (Wish and Joker) return their attacks to each other and because Wish does not have the same stamina as the Joker makes him stop his fist and say to the Joker.

"More times I'll win!!"

Wish after saying that went straight from Diyo's face.

Sensing that he had already spent a lot of time just to deal with Wish, Diyo immediately returned to the scene.

Upon arrival there Diyo was shocked because she saw Kaye there drinking coffee at the cafe, because on the timeline Diyo did not know Kaye so Diyo avoided her by sitting away from Kaye.

Feeling confused as to why Kaye was there when Kaye interrogated her in the main timeline Kaye did not say she was anywhere near the scene before the first murder.

But because Diy can fool Kaye so easily, Diyo does not think the main culprit is Kaye.

That way at half 8 pm, Diyo who has done time travel has entered a different timeline with the main timeline.

Will Diyo catch the main culprit this time?

Please look forward to the next day.
