Kyle spoke in a very low voice.
Target confirmed.
A short reply came back through the earpiece.
Confirmed.
At that moment, Kyle's finger hooked onto the trigger.
0.1 seconds.
That was all it took.
He had never failed a single time until now. So this, too, should have naturally been the end.
And yet.
His finger did not move.
It stopped.
Kyle didn't even furrow his brow. He didn't panic. His breathing didn't falter.
It was just strange.
….
Rael looked up.
To be precise, it looked as if he was looking in the direction where Kyle was through the scope.
And he... smiled.
It was strange. There was no reason for him not to pull the trigger.
Logically. Emotionally. Habitually.
Even so.
His finger would not release.
Rael smiled. Then, he mouthed a single phrase toward Kyle, who was aiming at him through the scope.
“Go ahead and shoot.”
