Selma told me they were going to force Captain Frank, who was at the foot of the mountain, back to the pack.

“Even if we return to the pack, we can’t confirm his identity.”

Even Master Mary’s bloodline tracing couldn’t find anything. Was he going to do a DNA test? If demons could even imitate the bloodline and the soul, there was no reason for them to ignore the physical body.

I didn’t know what I said reminded Selma, but she suddenly said excitedly, “Thank you, Dorothy. I know how to differentiate the real from the fake!”

“What?”

“I’m sorry, but I have to keep it a secret for the time being. If you know the correct answer and Captain Frank on the mountain is a fake, it’ll be hard for you to treat him normally, right? I’ll tell you everything, but not now. Please treat Captain Frank as the real deal for now.”

Alright, I knew that I was an unqualified monitor. Selma’s concealment made me heave a sigh of relief because I didn’t know how to face a fake.

Master Hayley and Master Kevin came to discuss countermeasures with me during dinner. They didn’t do nothing. They used all kinds of secret methods to run a series of tests on Captain Frank, but they didn’t find anything.

“I don’t want to make such a hasty conclusion, but I can’t help but believe that he’s real.” Master Hayley said, “It’s impossible to create such similar information even by copy and paste. All the detection errors are within the normal fluctuations. I’m at my wit’s end. If you want me to do anything else, I’ll have to try to knock him unconscious and then dissect him.”

He didn’t have to do this.

Selma and the others would only be back tomorrow. After losing their leader, Master Mary, Master Hayley, and Master Kevin were at a loss. Although it was true that Frank was the team’s leader, there was a considerable gap between a warrior and a werewolf grandmaster. Furthermore, he was labeled a suspect and could not be fully trusted.

“Anyway, let’s be more alert at night. Don’t sleep too deeply. We can take turns keeping watch.” I said, “Keep an eye on Frank’s movements at night. See if he’s doing anything while it’s dark.”

The first half of the night was Master Hayley’s shift, while the second half was Master Kevin and me.

At two o’clock in the morning, I covered myself with the blanket and leaned against the bed. The cold air dispelled my sleepiness, allowing me to try my best to keep a clear mind and watch every movement outside the window.

Occasionally, some team members would leave the house to relieve themselves in the temporary public toilet, but none was Frank. The window that belonged to him seemed to have been sealed by transparent resin for eternity, and there was no movement.

Wait a minute.

There was no movement?

This wasn’t quite right. As the captain, Frank had to get up every night to check on the situation of his team members on night duty in case someone dozed off or got into an accident.

He was supposed to check on her in the first half of the night, but Master Hayley didn’t see him. Master Kevin and I didn’t see him either, which meant he didn’t get up tonight. What reason could make an old soldier who always sought perfection break his habits of more than ten years?

I told Master Kevin about my doubts and woke Master Hayley up. We were prepared to go and take a look.

Due to the cold weather, the members on night duty changed shifts every two hours. When we left, we were just in time to change shifts. A few members asked us what we were doing out so late.

“Captain Frank wants us to go to his place.” I waved the walkie-talkie in my hand. “He didn’t say what he was going to do. I guess he needs help with some spells.”

The team members did not suspect anything.

When I arrived at Captain Frank’s residence, I pretended to knock on the door. As expected, I didn’t get a response, so I pretended to get permission to enter and used magic to unlock the door.

It was a narrow two-story stone building. Other than the original furniture, some digging tools, notebooks, drawings, and other things were scattered around. We searched the entire house but didn’t find any traces of Captain Frank.

This was strange. We saw Captain Frank enter the house, but we didn’t see him leave. We didn’t find a back door or a cellar in the house either. How could he have disappeared into thin air? However, his sudden disappearance undoubtedly increased the suspicion of his identity. In this world of ice and snow, I couldn’t think of any reason for him to sneak away alone.

We didn’t make a big fuss about it because this wasn’t a good time to alert the enemy. Whether it was a misunderstanding or there was something wrong with Captain Frank, it wouldn’t be good to clean up the mess if it was blown up.

We stayed in the room for the whole night. That night, Captain Frank didn’t show up.

At five o’clock in the morning, the team members gradually woke up, and there was a commotion outside. There was still no trace of Captain Frank in the crowd, as if he had never existed.

Suddenly, Master Hayley tugged at the corner of my shirt.

I was busy looking out the window. Without raising my head, I asked, “What’s wrong?”

She said, with a hint of shock, “You’d better take a look at...”

“What?”

I looked in the direction in which she was looking at the stairs ...

We didn’t know when Captain Frank appeared, but he was yawning at the top of the stairs and greeting us.

How could this be possible?
