Chapter 29 - Chapter 29 : Dummy Doll

After Julia had returned, Art and his friends were overjoyed and immediately took her to the hospital to continue her treatment by the doctor. Upon arriving at the hospital, the doctor and the police were astonished to see Julia had returned safely and could now proceed with treatment so she could recover soon.

"Thank goodness, Julia, you're back! We were going looking for you everywhere—even the police searched the entire country of Venice!" said the doctor while laying Julia down and injecting her with medicine.

Julia then fell asleep and was put back on an IV.

"She was found by Mr. Roger, and this was all because of Rojan and Polo who snuck into the hospital and kidnapped her!" Art explained to the doctor and the police.

"Rojan and his partner always cause chaos and keep kidnapping people. We must immediately bring this case to court so Rojan can be punished!" said the police officer firmly.

"Then how else can we catch Rojan, sir? He's gotten stronger with his illogical magical powers. Even Mr. Jemy, Mr. Roger's colleague, was killed by them!" added Art.

"What? Mr. Roger and Mr. Jemy—the policemen who turned into werewolves?" asked Officer Andrew, another police colleague.

"That's right, sir. I feel indebted to Mr. Roger for what happened, because he saved Julia!" said Art.

"And what about Delvi, the hostage who was our evidence?" asked Mr. Andrew, remembering that Delvi had escaped a few days ago.

"Can we talk about that later, sir? Rojan and Polo and the rest are extremely difficult to catch!" replied Art.

"Art, we from the police force trust you with this case, because you know Rojan and his companions best. We can only help monitor and protect against surprise attacks from them. So, you all must do your best for our country. People out there are suffering and becoming victims!" said Mr. Andrew.

"Alright sir, thank you for your trust. We really appreciate the task given to us. We'll think carefully about how to capture Rojan and his team!" said Art, handing over the important documents he had been keeping.

"Very well. We entrust this case to you, Art. Let's hope Rojan and his allies are captured soon!" said Mr. Andrew before returning to his patrol car to resume duty.

Then Art and his friends stayed to look after Julia in the hospital until she recovered. Art took his repaired laptop and started searching and researching the history of wizards. He found something interesting in his search: there are actually two types of wizards—good wizards and evil wizards. And Rojan was clearly a type of evil wizard.

He searched for the weaknesses of evil wizards but couldn't find any, because evil wizards are formed through the misuse of their powers.

"How about we catch them using illusions?" said Tommy.

"What do you mean by illusions?" Art asked, confused.

"Wizards are people who can manipulate or change objects, animals, or living beings through supernatural means. That means we can use illusions to manipulate their minds—because Rojan and his allies are still human. How about we use people who look like us to lure them in and trap them?" explained Tommy.

"Your idea sounds illogical, Tommy! Remember, they're high-level criminals—not so easily caught. Especially not with plans that could risk lives!" argued Art.

"Hey, Art, what I mean is, we trick their minds by creating dolls that look like us and placing them in a room. Then we trap Rojan and his allies in that room! Simple, right?" said Tommy.

"Sometimes you're a genius, Tommy. But we'll have to test it first. If it works, great. If not, then we'll have to wait for the cat angel to come help us!" replied Art.

"Huh? What do you mean by cat angel? I don't get it," asked Tommy.

"Oh right, I forgot to tell you. I actually have a guardian angel that helped me escape from Captain Arial's kidnapping. You and the others can't see it—only Julia and I can."

"You're getting weirder, Art! That cat who was with us... was actually an angel?" said Tommy, in disbelief.

"That's right, Tommy. I know it sounds strange. As regular humans, we can't communicate with beings from Nirvana—only certain people can. And that angel can help us catch Rojan too," Art explained.

Then they all planned to create dolls that looked like them.

The next day, Art went home to gather supplies, then headed to the nearest doll shop. Riding in a Lamborghini with Tommy, they entered the shop and looked for dolls.

"Julia's being looked after by Avicii at the hospital, so you don't have to worry too much," said Tommy, seeing that Art seemed preoccupied.

"Yeah, that's true. Hey, look at these dolls—their bodies and styles look just like us. Let's take these two!" said Art, pointing at the dolls.

"But I still need to find one more doll that looks like Avicii. It's hard to find something like that here," said Art, still browsing through the shop.

"We'll change its face at your teacher's shop, Art. He's an artist, so it'll be easy for him to make it resemble us!"

"Ahaa, smart thinking Tommy! Alright, grab this doll!" said Art, pointing again.

They bought the three dolls and immediately went to the artist's shop.

Upon arriving, Guru was surprised to see Art and Tommy carrying the dolls.

"What are these dolls for, Art?" asked Guru, puzzled.

"Guru, please help us make these dolls look like us! This is part of our mission to catch Rojan!" Art explained.

"Rojan and his partner still haven't been caught? They really are a menace to this country. Alright, if this is your mission," said Guru, taking the dolls and reshaping their faces.

After several hours, the dolls were finally complete—with faces that resembled Art, Tommy, and Avicii.

"Alright Art, the dolls are done. Now take them!" said Guru.

"Wow, thank you Guru, the faces look exactly like us!" said Art and Tommy.

"Yes, Art," said Guru. "Now I'll return to working on my other projects, since some customers are waiting for their orders. Take the dolls and continue your mission!"

"Alright, Guru. Thank you!" they said, then returned to their base to set the trap.
