In the dark night, only shadowed by the nearby street lamp. A figure lurking behind the ally as deep as the shadow surrounding the dark alley, in silence. Surveillance is the supposed game. Watching the ins and the outs of a building within it's sight. It has been there for half a day, maybe. Right as the clock strike midnight, the silence broken. "Artificer, Cipher, return" said the deep voice in the ear piece.

Cipher, Artificer's only partner for the day, stationed at the top the a nearby apartment. Surveillance from the sky and also to survey the hacked cctv of the targeted building. Cipher, a short person who likes to dressed in bunny eared hoodie, folded closed her silver laptop, placed in her special military bullet-proof bag. she raised her left arm and gently press the intercom on her ear piece, "This is the most boring mission ever, Oracle. At least Phantom got to get inside the building". Artificer, who now has walked away from the surveillance point, chuckle quietly. Imagining Cipher rolling her eyes while speaking into the ear piece. Oracle reply with "Just come back to the base will you." Artificer who in a long brown jacket, a dark blue jeans, an outfit that is fit to blend in as a woman, stop a while and look up to a window. The window that Cipher was located. She let a sigh and later a smirk.

Artificer need to walk to the base for status debriefing. A short walk for some but a transportation would help a fatigue body. Half day of watching is not a easy task, but anyone would agree, the task is mundane. A walk in the cold dark night air is quite good in actually. The cool breeze brushing through the cheeks can sober a tired mind. To think with years of experience training in the military and as a secret spy for the government small task like this would be easy, a small feat, but in actual, in Artificer mind, this menial task adds a reason for easier fatigue mind rather than a fatigue body and stamina. Cipher soon reach the base she guess. Meeting with the rest of the special team and the Admin for today's debriefing.

The base is somewhere underground, to access it, one of its entry point is a karaoke bar in the heart of Aethel City. On the first floor of a row of shop lots. Artificer push the frosted glass door, walk up to the counter right in front of the door revealing a colorful entrance space with two couches at both of the side of the wall. At the counter stand a young guy, maybe a 19 or a 18 year old. The young guy welcomed Artificer with a warm voice. Artificer nodded slightly and requested the "Cricket Room with an extended time". An odd name for a room name in a karaoke place? The Special room is tucked inside at the end of the halls of doors. In the normal eyes, this room looked like a normal karaoke room for two, maybe three people to hang out. A hanging tv, few mics, stereo system, a long couch, coloured dim lights, everything to make it seems normal. But it is rarely ever rent out. In the room, at the left side of the 40inch tv, lies a small switch that can turn the tv into security monitor where your facial will be scanned and it will check your IDs. The switch also can lock the door from anyone coming in accidently. When everything has been checked out, the wall that the tv is hanged will open up by sliding up backward and then to the right to reveal a bright lite up elevator.
