b. 99

composition: Op. 27 No 1, Nocturne in C# minor

..

GE (→FE→EE) has an additional superfluous before g1. The accidental could have been already in [A]—sometimes Chopin added a cautionary sign relating to some potential imaginery note or chord, and not to real ones preceding the given passage (cf. e.g. Mazurka in G minor Op. 24 No 1, bar 11).
