Okay but here's a thought:

Yurei is a general name for an occupation as an assassin who works specifically for the administrator. That used to be Nick - Now its someone else. And maybe the "Your results are excellent" refers to him training his own successor excellently.



OR you actually went the Sci Fi route there and Nick has a clone (and this is not the same Nick as the one who is with Judy, who is the original), or he can teleport, or he can multiply. Anyways, there definitely needs to be a Nick who is with Judy all the time. He needs to be, because he can't let her out of sight. OR he replaced himself with a hologram OR...



Regardless, this is brilliant storytelling by both you and Kulkum. Its so ambiguous, so mysterious. I love it.
