BIA Ch. 22
"Haven't you read that book? Slaughterhouse-Five?" "I have." "Then why?" "I just felt like revisiting it after a long time." Bran tossed the book into his rifle case. He disassembled the rifle he had assembled, placed it back in the case and then stuffed a pistol into the remaining empty space. Isaiah was taken aback by Bran’s action of stuffing four empty pistols into the case. “Why are you taking all of that?” “Because I need them.” Bran answered curtly and closed the lid…-

BIA Ch. 21
When Isaiah had just exited the bedroom, Bran was standing by the kitchen table. “Why is this crumpled?” He asked, pointing at the receipt on the table. “Oh, that. Chester crumpled it.” “Did Chester see it?” “Yes. But he doesn’t know you left that note. He just thinks it was from some guy I met at the club.” Bran picked up the receipt on the table. He glanced once at the message he had written and placed it back down. “I see.” Isaiah had thought Bran would head…-

“Oh, by the way, Dr. Aren't you going to tell me what I said during the hypnosis test? I’m actually curious about that.” Isaiah deliberately spoke in a bright tone, not liking how the atmosphere was getting too heavy. “Hm, I don’t usually share that. We might conduct another hypnosis test later and it could affect the results.” “I see…” “That’s right. However, some of that content was mixed into the questions I asked today. Though Isaiah wouldn’t…-

He became especially affectionate whenever Isaiah cried. Last night was also like that. He offered words of comfort with an uncharacteristically gentle manner. But that wasn't why he had cried. He hadn't shed tears because he wanted to hear kind words of comfort from Bran. Bran's words were probably correct. Although he wasn't conscious of it, he was probably in a state of heightened emotions due to the hypnosis test. When he thought that the story within the story, that is, Isaiah Diaz's story,…-

BIA Ch. 18
Day 2 When he woke up in the morning, there were twenty-two missed calls from overnight. Two numbers had taken turns calling. One of them was Manny and the other… “Chester, I guess.” Bran said, pouring coffee into a mug. Also. Isaiah groaned and threw his phone on the table. “That smartphone is Chester’s. He gave it to me, registered under his name, so he would have a direct line to me for this job.” Bran set two mugs of coffee he had poured onto the table. The mugs were the same…-

He was such an unnecessarily dedicated professional, Isaiah thought to himself with a mix of admiration and disbelief, when Bran suddenly asked. “Isaiah Diaz?” “Huh?” “Does Isaiah Diaz drink?” Isaiah thought for a moment and answered, “Hmm… Maybe.” “How much?” “Just, normally? Like other freshmen?” At Isaiah’s expression, Bran laughed as if it were absurd. “How much is ‘like other freshmen’? Most of the freshmen I know were addicted to…-

He knew. Isaiah Cole on his side was helpful. That meant that Isaiah Cole who was not on his side or Isaiah Diaz, who was on his side but couldn't even shoot a gun, wouldn't be helpful. Suddenly, it crossed his mind that Bran might be the type to quietly eliminate him without anyone noticing if he failed to recover his memories by the time the successor was announced. But… “Huh, Isaiah?” He had no choice. If this guy and that guy were the same, he had no choice but to side with the one who…-

“Is there anything you would be able to do to help me?” “Hmm… I think there will be.” Perhaps. Isaiah added, just in case. “Perhaps?” Bran immediately tilted his head, as if he wasn't pleased with the vague answer. “No, I’m certain. Yes. I think I would be able to help you. No, I will help you. Trust me.” Desperate, Isaiah issued empty promises excessively. Bran observed Isaiah for a moment and then chuckled, as if amused. “You’re definitely not Isaiah…-

“The mercenaries belonging to White Dove were especially renowned for their exceptional marksmanship. Many Navy SEAL snipers who had served in Iraq and Afghanistan went to WD as firearms instructors after their discharge. White Dove is a private mercenary company, but it is also a professional sniper training center.” It’s said that if you gathered all the medals of valor awarded to White Dove’s instructors, you would have enough steel to construct a Bradley. The snipers of White Dove were those…-

“Kurt Vonnegut?” “Yes.” “Huh.” Bran looked truly surprised this time. “Do you like him?” “Uh… No, probably not.” Isaiah quickly shook his head. “The title just suddenly came to me. I just tried to think about what that book was about but I can’t even remember. I just know it’s a war story.” “Hmm, really?” Bran responded casually and took a sip of beer. “What else do you remember?” Isaiah thought for a moment and shook his head. “It…-
