02 Working overtime

The plane we took did not land directly in the upper city of Academy City, but at the airport in the lower city of Labral, because the airport above Academy City would not allow ordinary civil aviation to land.

And we are not in a hurry to go to Academy City in the upper district as soon as possible. Instead, we will stay in the Lower City for one night and then set off for Academy City tomorrow morning. There are still three days before the start of school, so there is no need to rush.

And there will be quite troublesome procedures waiting for us tomorrow, mainly the procedures for entering the city and enrolling in school. It is said that it is not that the procedures are complicated, but that there are so many people going through the procedures that it will waste a lot of time. This is also

It's really quite speechless.

Now that we know the situation, there is no need to rush. When we left the airport, it was almost 7 pm, and the next itinerary had already been arranged. Zhiye and Nilania went to the already booked trip first.

Hotel, and the two girls had just arrived in a big city. They had the opportunity to go shopping and have fun, which was unanimously praised by the two of them. They directly called a taxi and they quickly blended into the big city.

But I always feel that the abnormal combination of Zhiye, Niranya and Jade is a bit worrying. Well, I hope it's just an illusion.

As for why I didn't go together, it was all thanks to Neo. Alas, what else could I do? I had to run for a living in another city as soon as I got off the plane, and was captured by Neo to work overtime together happily.

After seeing off the trio of girls, Neo and I went to get the car first. This bastard agent actually airlifted his own car over. I expressed my strong disdain for his extravagance and waste. Neo

The car is still the same as before, but Neo is also a dick. He was able to save him from falling at a speed of more than 300 kilometers per hour. Although I am not Zhao Ritian, I still accept it.

I don’t think there are any of these, but let’s get in the car and set off first.

Although it is not uncommon for cars in this era to be equipped with anti-gravity devices, the city will not let you fly around at will. The reason why I drove Neo's car around was because the city was not very particular about it, and Neo

My car also has permission to go into the air, but that was something before. Although this city also has such privileges, now it is necessary to keep a low profile! But I, a commoner, in this city

I no longer have the right to take off at will, and the days of returning to walking are so painful.

But it doesn't matter, this metropolis is still far ahead of the border city where I stayed before, and the transportation network alone is already very impressive.

The traffic flow in this city is very huge, but so many cars actually show extraordinary efficiency, because the transportation network can be connected to every car, and there is no need for manual operation at all, as long as the AI ​​needs to be told

When you go there, the car will move forward completely on its own, and it will travel very fast without causing any disruption to the traffic flow. It is indeed a pretty good design.

After entering the city, I looked at the scenery along the way. There were towering buildings made of silvery white and multi-glass, and there were also many strange-shaped buildings full of artistic styles. At first glance, most places were still standard buildings and the city

The border cities with their square layout are really far from each other.

I have to admit that arriving here gave me a real sense of the future world for the first time.

I was so excited that I chewed the espresso-flavored lollipop into pieces.

Neo saw my funny look and handed the cigarette to me again.

"I'd rather have this. Although it's fun to be like this, it always makes me feel awkward."

"Hmph!" I took the cigarette angrily and held it in my mouth, but I refused to light it.

Neo looked at me like I was a freak, but chose to smoke his own cigarette.

"It seems you haven't told me what your goal is this time?" I asked suddenly.

"Well, that's what I was about to say."

Then, Neo waved his hand twice, and some character information was immediately displayed on the windshield of the car. No need to ask, this is the goal of this overtime work.

Neo then explained.

"Shakel Oban Paralao Kasem, 22 years old, male, born in the Mujin Republic, half-body modified human, his usual weapons are individual charged particle cannons and high-frequency machetes, comprehensive combat power evaluation 7568, 14 years old

Joined the army, retired at the age of 17, and then joined the Serpent Mercenary Group. A year later, he killed the leader in a duel and became the new leader. He once robbed and massacred three small border towns, and this time he sneaked into La La with 20 accomplices.

In Brar, I just found an opportunity to bring this mercenary leader to justice."

Well, this is what we call overtime. When Neo revealed his identity to me, that was what it meant to become a private collaborator. Although my goal was to have only Wells Douglass, it was obvious that Neo wanted to

He is not the only one I have to deal with. When I looked at the list, there were more than 30 people who couldn't escape. Although my goals conflict with Neo's, at least there has been no disagreement so far, and I do need Neo.

help, so now I have to stand on the same front with him until I reach my goal.

But to be honest, I have little interest in Neo's mission, because I know the nature of the collaborative agency. The agents of the collaborative agency will only be dispatched under special circumstances that may change the pattern of the country and the world, and Neo just now

Tell me that you have to deal with a little-known mercenary leader, you are kidding me.

"Haha, do the spies you coordinate and organize think of yourself as the world's police? Generally speaking, little guys like this don't need you to personally act?"

"Why do you say that?"

"If you were still pretending to be a spy under Vika, it would be understandable to deal with these people, but now your identity is different, so will the people you want to arrest still have the same weight as before?"

"so what?"

"So finish what you haven't finished. Do you really think of me as a child?"

"Quite perceptive."

"Excellent."

"Actually, we are investigating an emerging organization."

"What organization?"

"The name of the organization is "". At present, we know very little about this organization. We only know that it is an organization formed for the purpose of this artifact competition. The composition of the members and the size of the organization are not clear yet, and this mercenary leader may be

A little tail."

"Just like this, I always feel like we are being fished when we go there."

"You can't just ignore it."

Well, it doesn't matter. Anyway, I treat it as a part-time job, so let's leave this topic as it is. There can be countless strange organizations like this in a year. Anyway, Neo Intelligence will be related to me to some extent.

Sharing, I don’t need to pay too much attention to it now.

Although it has nothing to do with this matter, a question suddenly occurred to me.

"By the way, Neo, what identity did you use to sneak into Academy City?"

But as soon as I finished asking, I didn't know that Neo made a rather strange expression, which seemed helpless and a bit intriguing, but he said to me in a tone that refused to allow others to inquire.

"You'll know in a few days."

Since he had such an expression on his face, I decided not to exude unnecessary curiosity. I remained speechless after that, but not long after the car started moving again, Neo opened his mouth to remind me.

"Start getting ready!"

I nodded.

Neo put his hands on the car again, entered the manual driving area, and suddenly turned at a small intersection in front. At the same time, the surrounding windows instantly became dimmer. I knew this was because the glass was adjusted to single mode.

Towards the effect of glass.

I kissed the ring on my finger.

"Metamorphose."

However, the pink radiance I had during my daily transformation did not appear. Instead, black particles suddenly appeared and surrounded my whole body. After a moment, my light blond hair and green eyes turned into black hair and black eyes after my body adjusted.

And my casual clothes were changed into a black dress.

After I transformed, Neo sighed.

"I was really shocked when I learned about your special ability from Vika. I never thought that someone could really possess two kinds of magic light."

This is the first time that Neo has seen me transform like this. It is inevitable that he will be curious, because the light naturally emitted by ordinary magical girls when using magic is magic light. It is a by-product of using magic. It can be hidden if it cannot be done.

It cannot be changed, but Jade and I have had two kinds of magic light since the beginning of the contract, one is pink, and the other is this black. As for why this is the case, Jade, who knows my origin, has made such an assumption, because I came from

I came to this earth in a relatively close world of divergent balance, and I may have existed before on this earth, and when I traveled to this world, I had a double existence in this world. The principle is that even

Jade can't explain it clearly, but if you make a hypothesis based on the results, the pink is the magic light of the living me, and the black is the magic light of the dead me. Well, it sounds really creepy. I

I also have some psychological grudges about this, because this black magic light is a symbol of the past me, the me when I was called the "Butcher Doll".

Of course, I will not explain it to Neo in detail, but will answer in a non-committal tone.

"Indeed, generally speaking this is impossible, but think about what my title is; it's just that this characteristic is not a great thing. Except for the change in the color of the magic light, everything else is still the same, that is, changing

It’s just a special effect, basically useless.”

"Yeah, I'm a little interested in the nature of your characteristic."

"Then let me tell you, have you ever heard of 'pinkiri black'?"

Neo shook his head.

"Then shut up, you pervert."

Seeing that I had no intention of explaining, Neo wisely ended this insignificant topic and picked up the mission description again.

"Let's meet up with the team members first. Since this is a small operation, there are only five of us including you and me. But don't worry, we are all acquaintances, so there will definitely be no problem with our cooperation."

Of course I know that many people from Neo's team have also come to this city, and the personnel involved in the operation must have dealt with me in the past. It is indeed a familiar guy, which makes me feel quite at ease.

"Then it's best to end it quickly. I'm still worried about my sister and Nia."
