Miss Witch doesn't want to be a diva

As the night gets darker, the floors on the street emit a changing halo of color, illuminating the bustling commercial district.

Although the good kids have gone to bed, many professionals from large companies have just gotten off work. They untie their uncomfortable ties, take off their suits of high-end fabrics, board a streamlined hover car, and shuttle between the neon lights and high-rise buildings. , enjoying the evening breeze while thinking about where to vent stress and relax tonight.

The roaring hoverbike passed by the car, causing a screaming sound and a long colorful trail, causing some hoverbike drivers to curse.

However, these have nothing to do with the dim streets on the ground. Many cargo trucks are driving quietly, delivering goods and necessities to various businesses and owners in the city.

Occasionally, the headlights of a large truck passed by, illuminating the girl walking slowly on the street, but soon her figure was immersed in the dark environment and was not so clear.

"Du-du--"

The red warning light flashed on and off, and a special steel mesh surrounded the large pit next to the street. Inside, several engineering autonomous units were busy repairing the ground and walls. It seemed that they had been killed by high-level extraordinary people not long ago. The aftermath damaged the facility.

The light illuminated the girl's appearance. She didn't look too tall. She had short silver-gray hair and slightly hollow eyes. She was carrying a square schoolbag. When the road in front was blocked by the isolation net, the girl stepped on the guardrail and walked around. In the past, I held my hands open, as if walking on a balance beam.

She didn't have the lively and innocent jumping movements of a child. Her gray hair was also dyed orange in the orange warning lights, and she walked calmly. Occasionally she would stop and jump to the inside of the road. , watching the trucks whizzing by at night, the breeze slightly lifted the hair on the side of the face.

When the truck passed by, the girl walked back to the railing and stepped on it. Her body occasionally tilted, but she quickly adjusted herself.

Whether compared with those busy professional elites or those enthusiastic college students, this girl seemed out of place, like a speck of dust in the corner of the bustling world, unnoticed and silent.

The Central Star Territory is rich and prosperous, but this does not mean that everyone lives a good life. The bottom and upper levels of the social structure are like worlds that are parallel to each other but never collide.

The extravagant consumption of those working elites in one night, and the drinks priced at tens of thousands, may be the income of some people in a year.

Similarly, even if they are students in the Central Star Territory, not all are geniuses and have excellent qualifications. There are always some people who need to spend a lot of time and energy clumsily to learn some seemingly simple skills and abilities.

But they still live in this world, and because of their efforts, many elites are able to free up their hands to do easy things.

The girl slowly walked through the repaired area and entered the dim streets again, but this time, it was not as normal and quiet as before.

"哐——"

The sound of a metal bat hitting the ground, a burst of yelling and cursing came from the street and alley, and then the sound of chasing and running.

The girl walking at the intersection saw a figure running out of the alley. She subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but it was too late.

The violent impact caused her to fly up, and then she landed on the street and rolled continuously. The severe pain and the earth-shaking made her confused for a while, but then came something even more dangerous. A loaded truck was approaching rapidly in the distance.

Amidst the sharp braking sound, she felt the dazzling car lights getting closer and closer, and then the world collapsed.

The last scene in her memory was her watching herself fly high, as if she were looking at another stranger. The girl fell down like a rag doll, and then rolled and remained motionless.

…

I don't know how much time passed, but pain seemed to come from the dark world, which made her wake up again, but at this time, she was no longer on that dark street.

Surrounded by a bright medical environment, the white quilt and ceiling, the infusion tube on the back of the hand, and the ticking medical instruments beside him all indicate that this is a good hospital.

After fumbling to sit up, she looked around. Unfortunately, apart from her, there was only another empty bed and no one else in the ward.

Although she was rescued, it was difficult for her to be happy, because the medical expenses in the Central Star Territory were by no means cheap, and she could not afford them at all. I was afraid that she would be in debt for a long time in the future.

Because of her awakening, a nurse came over soon, checked her body, and then asked her to continue lying down to recuperate.

"Although the bones have been reattached, the damage to the internal organs is not easy to recover. You still need to rest for a while before being discharged."

…

"Are you talking about the medical expenses? Someone has already paid for this for you."

…

"The other person is not very old. He is a young man wearing a black coat and jacket. He talks very little."

…

"I don't know the contact information, but the other party comes to see you every few days. You have been in a coma for a week, and you also suffered a brain concussion before, so you slept for a long time."

After answering the girl's questions, the nurse comforted her again and then exited the ward. It seemed that she was also very busy and did not have much time to stay here.

The room became quiet again, and the girl slowly groped and felt her body. She was now 17 years old, at the end of her sophomore year in high school, and was about to be a senior in high school, with her original strength sequence 3.

If we were talking about other star regions, students who advanced to Sequence 3 in their second year of high school would be students with very good grades. However, in the Central Star Territory, a place where prestigious schools are located and where geniuses gather, such qualifications can only be said to be very ordinary and inconspicuous.

After learning that she didn't have to worry about medical expenses, she finally felt relieved, then lay on the bed again and slowly fell asleep.

The next day, the girl saw the young man wearing a black coat and jacket that the nurse said. He put his hands in his pockets and stood beside the hospital bed, watching her wake up.

With eyebrows and hair without any pigment, the young man with his head covered in a hood seemed to be albino, bloodless, and his eyes were stone-like, lifeless, as if his consciousness was wandering in an extremely distant place.

"You're awake." He said, his voice not as unpleasant as expected, but normal.

"Well, who are you?" The girl tried to remember that she had never seen this person before.

"My eldest sister asked me to save you. Just thank her." The young man said without beginning or end.

"Who is the eldest sister?"

The young man did not answer, as if this command had not been entered into the machine, so it did not respond.

The girl had no choice but to give up because she was speechless. She was not the kind of person who was very curious. Ordinary people's lives were full of different hardships. Sometimes asking too many questions would hurt someone.

In this way, the two people in the room remained silent until the nurse came to change the dressing and ask questions, breaking the silence.

"Here you go, I'm leaving."

A communication chip was left behind, and the young man followed the nurse and left, leaving the girl alone in the ward.

There is a burning 'Z' symbol on the black card, with no other writing on it. Its color changes to fluorescent green, which is particularly eye-catching against the black background, as if the burning symbol is about to jump out.

Want to get in touch?

The girl held the card and slowly made her decision.
