Schna left ToyDreamland with the same swiftness she had entered. On her Harley-Davidson, she sped through the city and arrived at an abandoned warehouse in Sokovis. She took off her helmet and strolled into the warehouse. That was the location indicated by the

red dot on the puzzle. No one was there to greet her.

Selina called out into the empty warehouse. The game's over, isn't it? Who are you? Show yourself." Her voice echoed, lingering in the still air.

Noticing the silence, Selina spoke up. "W.R., you once targeted me on the underground Dark Web. Even though you're pretty obscure there, your skills are obviously top-notch, not inferior to the second-best hacker there. From the people you've brought in and the way you're messing with me. I don't think you're out to harm me. You seem to enjoy hiding and playing games with me. Fine, I'm in"

The fact that the person managed to get Selina's phone number and used the alias WR suggested he was aware of her alternate account, Phantom. That was why Selina came alone to confront the situation,

W previous attack on Selina's account on the underground Dark Web seemed more like a challenge than a genuine threat.

However, after this incident. Selina needed to uncover W's true identity and understand his intentions. She was out in the open while the enemy remained in the shadows. And with her identity exposed, she was determined to get to the bottom of it *Clap! Clap! Clap!

The sound of applause echoed through the warehouse

A man in a silver suit and a mask emerged from around the corner. Using a voice changer, he said, "I knew those puzzles wouldn't stump you, Selina. Now let's play one last game. If you win this game, you'll uncover my true identity... W.R."

Being on WR s turf. Selina knew she had no leverage for negotiation. She asked calmly, "What's the game?"

"Assembling a gun. If you can do it faster than me, I'll remove my mask and reveal my true identity, W.. replied.

Assembling a gun? Selina pondered, recalling the skills Jeffrey had taught her in the mountains. "How do I know whether you're telling the truth! You need to provide something to convince me

"Here."WR immediately pulled out a phone from his pocket and tossed it to Selina

Selina caught in and looked at the screen, which displayed the login details for the underground Dark Web and WR's identity verification. She narrowed her eyes. "You're playing a high-stakes game With Selina's abilities, that phone alone was enough to bring W.R. to complete ruin

"You wanted sincerity, so here it is. The reason I hacked your account and sought you out today was to gauge your true strength. Phantom W.R. continued. The is the final game. If you win, you can keep the phone. With your skills, uncovering my true identity using this phone will be a breeze. I'll keep my promise. If you lose, return the phone to me, and I'll disappear."

"Um Sure" Given the sincerity shown. Selina didn't hesitate

1. WR. pulled the table over, took out two handguns, and placed them in front of Selina. "Choose one."

Selina glanced at them and picked the one on the left. "This one. After she took the gun, Selina noticed that WIt's disassembly technique was nearly identical to her own in terms of steps, timing, and precision. Curious, she asked, "Who taught you this disassembly technique?

WR chuckled. "Tan't it better to ask that question after you've won? That way, you'll get the answer you're looking for?

Then, I

I'll beat you," Selina replied, ejecting the bullets onto the table and carefully arranging all the equipment

"Starting the countdown Theer Two One..." W.. snapped his fingers. "Gal"

Roth Selina and W spring into action at the same moment. Their speed in assembling the guns was impressive, yet every movement was precise and methodical In the end, they each held their handguns, simultaneously aimed directly at each other. It was impossible to determine who had been faster

WB shrugged. "Who wins? I didn't ses up any timing equipment. How about we switch to a different game?"

Selina pained momentarily before responding, Terjamin, have you had your fin?"

I don't k

know what you mean, W.R. replied

From the way you assembled the gun. I could tell you learned this technique from Jeffrey, just like I did. Benjamin, are you still holding a grudge because I beat you at gun assembly hack then, and that's why you chose this game?" Selina continued. WR was silent.

In the next instant, Selina aimed at W. and fired. The bullet narrowly missed his mask, brushing against his bar and sending a less strands

fluttering away. The mask shattered, revealing his cynical, handsome face.

Benjamin raised his hands in a gesture of surrender and grinned. "Selina, it's been a long time. Although your greeting is a bit unconventional, just give me a heads-up next time. At my age, I can't handle such shocks. If that bullet had been off by even a fraction, it could have been the end for

me..

"Benjamin, it really is you." Selina said. lowering her gun and covering her face! "You really scared me to death. I thought my identity had been exposed, and you were going to kill me."Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

"If your true identity had been exposed, it wouldn't be someone as friendly as me coming directly to find you. You'd be dealing with a covert special forces team from the country, Benjamin revealed. "Benjamin, so you used the alias W.R. to hack my

k my account because you knew Phantom was me? Was that your intention all along? And you've kept it from me for so many years? Selina fumed.

Seeing Selina's anger, Benjamin quickly clarified, "Selina, you've misunderstood. I only recently discovered that you're Phantom. Back then, I hacked your account because your name was so prominent on the underground Dark Web, and I wanted to test your skills. As expected from you. your hacking abilities even surpass mine. Kudos to you."

Selina's anger subsided somewhat with Benjamin's explanation. If she discovered that Benjamin knew her true identity but deliberately kept it from her while targeting her, she would complain to jeffrey and Malcolm, insisting they take action against Benjamin. There was no reason for Benjamin to deceive her,

"And Selina, my hint was pretty obvious. W.R. is my initials. How could you not recognize me? You've really hurt my feelings Benjamin sighed dramatically.

any

"Benjamin, you're really tempting fate by using your initials openly on the underground Dark Web. It's a good thing you haven't been on missions and are just an ordinary person. Otherwise, you'd be hounded to death, Selina remarked. Then, she thought. The most dangerous place is often the safest. She hadn't considered that before. After all, who would risk doing something so bold! With only one life to live, losing a bet in place where everything is so exposed could mean losing it all.

Thinking of that, Selina asked, "But Benjamin, how did you know my identity?"

"Firstly, I came here to see you and Lydia. Secondly, to discuss some business. Thirdly, to give you a reminder. I discovered your identity through very special channels and my own judgment. The channel itself still doesn't know you're Phantom, but there's no such thing as an impenetrable wall. In time, Selina, be prepared and protect yourself, Benjamin replied.

Benjamin rarely showed a serious side, but he thought, Selina's the top hacker of the underground Dark Web, so everyone wanted a piece of her and saw her as a big threat. When both the criminal world and law enforcement come after her, even if she's exceptional, there's no way she could break free from the onslaught of so many skilled adversaries.

Selina lowered her gaze, thinking. First, Trevon sensed my true identity vaguely, and now Benjamin. Even if the channel doesnt know I'm Phantom yet, it's likely they will in the future. She had taken every possible measure to protect her information, leaving no room for improvement At that rate, it was only a matter of time before her true identity was revealed As Benjamin said, she needed to be prepared and take preventive measures,
