Mysterious journey

South of Heipan City

In a pastry shop somewhere.

"Alan, your brother is from Black Pan Academy, and you didn't even tell us!" In the cute pink-themed shop, a pink-haired girl wearing a white apron shouted loudly, tugging on Alan's hair.

"Store manager, I told Xiuli and the others a long time ago, don't blame me!" Allen is wearing the same white apron, his long hair is tied up, his skin is fair and delicate, and his figure is similar to that of a girl, giving him a strange androgynous look . He also wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses. Looking from a distance, he doesn't look out of place among a group of young girls. He also has a sense of elegance.

"Is it true?" The pink-haired girl immediately turned to look at the other clerks in the store, and the other girls and boys immediately turned around with guilty consciences. They are all younger than the store manager, and are usually regarded as younger brothers and sisters by the store manager girl. The members of this store have a very pure relationship with each other, and they are all simple-minded people. This is why the store manager deliberately does this when selecting people. Selected.

"That's it, store manager. Allen told us last time when he called, and we all heard it." A handsome boy wearing glasses whispered. "It's just that Allen's brother rarely contacted him, so we gradually forgot about it."

Of course they didn't forget it. Except for the simple Allen who couldn't see it, in fact they all felt it from Allen's story. Allen's brother Nono actually looked down on this younger brother, even though Allen clumsily defended his brother. Although he said nice things, Nonosiva's arrogant, inhumane, and strong image slowly emerged in everyone's mind. Naturally, I rarely talk about this topic with Allen.

"I originally thought that with so many people in Black Pan Academy, Brother Allen would be just an ordinary student there, but I didn't expect that guy is really proud of himself." The two girls with blond curly ponytails whispered in a low voice.

"But Allen is so tired every day, and he still insists on saving money for his brother to work, and to continue taking classes in the evening. His brother doesn't even ask a question, which is really chilling." Another girl said in a low voice.

"Forget it, stop talking, let Allen hear it and start yelling again." The two girls looked at Allen with a pure face and sighed involuntarily.

"Forget it, the Black Pan Academy is too far away from us, let's be realistic." The pink-haired girl clapped her hands loudly, "Everyone, please pay attention, my brother and his friends will come over to help with work in a while, it's a holiday During the internship, they are all middle school students, about the same age as you, so we all need to get along well."

Wow.

Immediately all the clerks gathered around.

"The store manager's younger brother? Is he as handsome as me?"

"Maybe he is a very cute little boy. The store managers are so pretty."

"I don't know what kind of person he is? If he has a bad temper, he will be in trouble."

"Davier, it will be up to you then! Conquer him with your charm!"

Seeing the shop assistants gathered around curiously, the pink-haired girl crossed her hips in satisfaction.

"Don't worry, my brother and his friends are good people. Especially my brother, he is an incredibly gentle guy. Just don't bully him."

"Really"

"Do you have any photos to look at?"

"Here." The pink-haired girl took out a color photo, which was immediately snatched away. "Look for a fight, Jasmine!"

A girl with a silver ponytail smiled coquettishly and ran away with the photo, but was immediately surrounded by people.

"Let me see"

She took off the photo, shook it, and looked at it.

The photo showed a short boy with a shy smile on his face. He was not handsome, but somewhat delicate. His messy black hair was being rubbed vigorously by the store manager behind him.

In the lower right corner of the photo, written in black pen: loose cover.

"This is Centaur Star Language, which means my beloved family. Oh, manager, it's so disgusting~~~"

Another boy grabbed the photo and read it out loud.

"Oh, you want to die, don't you!?" The pink-haired girl suddenly became embarrassed.

Allen stood on the edge and smiled, watching that there was no customer in the store, but everyone was making a fuss. This feeling made people feel warm and comfortable.

He also saw the boy in the photo. He looked very gentle and must be an easy person to get along with.

************************

Black Disk Academy

In the dormitory area of ​​Grade C.

Just as Garen inserted his ID card into the door lock and opened the dormitory door with a click, he suddenly felt a slight movement in his heart. As if something was slightly activated, an inexplicable feeling surged out of his heart, but he could not grasp the source.

He stood quietly at the door for a while, holding the door handle of the house and motionless.

"This feeling is so familiar." He murmured softly.

Click.

Behind me, I heard the sound of students opening the door from the opposite side.

Garen suddenly woke up and turned his head slightly to look behind him. A boy who lived across the street was making a phone call in a low voice to the watch terminal. He walked into the room while talking.

He also pushed the door in and closed it behind his back, blocking out the footsteps, chatter and laughter of the passing students, and the sound of the hovercar's engine outside.

"Did that start?" He turned on the air conditioner, took off his coat and threw it on the chair. He lay down on the bed and quietly recalled it.

When he chose this body, it was mainly because there seemed to be a trace of inexplicable fluctuations around it. Now it seems that his original choice is starting to come true.

After thinking about it carefully, this feeling was very familiar, but not very clear. Garen himself was not sure what it was about. I thought about it carefully in bed for more than ten minutes but still found nothing.

Sighing, he sat up directly and continued with today's routine exercise practice.

Glancing at the attribute bar, today's attribute page began to change slightly.

‘Nonosiwa Lin——Strength 0.7, agility 1.2, constitution 0.5, intelligence 1.4. Potential 0%. Soul Limit 40.’

"On average, all attributes have increased in strength by 0.1, which is not bad." Gallon nodded with satisfaction, "I just don't know how much the second level of Peacock Function can strengthen this body. If it can fully break through the average of 1 point The attributes are the best. When the time comes, I can rely on my fighting experience and skills to be able to protect myself even when faced with SWAT personnel holding firearms."

Powerful secret martial arts can bring various changes to the practitioner as they complete each level. Some are positive, some are negative, and some are insignificant and harmless.

As for the Peacock Kung Fu, which is the second level of the basic stage and the second level of the Secret Martial Arts of Life, I don’t know how much change it can bring to this body.

Garen took a closer look at the Secret Martial Arts and other skill columns. They also saw changes, and there were actually new consciousness skills.

‘Consciousness—Basic Intermediate Level,

(Exercise method: black disk control, free training method of black disk academy, continuous training effect is weak, the progress rate is twelve years/each level)'

"Finally, the training method has become a skill. It seems that my understanding of the training method in this world has gradually deepened, and then I have formed enough concepts in the innate abilities." Garen thought thoughtfully.

"Skills that can be formed can be enhanced by potential points, but it seems that there are no potential points in this world." Garron frowned slightly again.

Ding dong

Suddenly the doorbell rang.

Garen looked at the time. It was already past ten o'clock in the evening. Who else would be looking for him?

He had just separated from Elmia. If there were others, they would definitely use the watch terminal to make a call first.

The doorbell only rang once and then there was no more movement.

Garen stood up and walked over to open the door.

There was a clicking sound, but there was nothing and no one outside the door, except for a letter lying on the ground. There is a line written on the surface of the white envelope: To Nonosiwa Lin.

Garen picked up the envelope and glanced outside again. Two passing students walked into the dormitory building chatting and laughing. Apart from that, there was no suspicious behavior.

He closed the door again and sat back on the bed with the envelope.

"Does Nonosiva have any special interpersonal relationships in this world? Or rather..." Garen tore open the envelope, pulled out an unsigned piece of letter paper, and unfolded it gently.

‘Nono, regarding tomorrow’s second game, we hope you can take the initiative to admit defeat. ’ Then there was the image of a blue daffodil.

Garen looked through the back of the paper and saw that there were words on the back of the paper, and he looked back.

‘Londo Lin, deputy section chief of the Negotiation Section of the Commerce Department of Jushangyuji Investment Company. ’

‘Aimee Landa, deputy section chief of the inventory management section of the operations department of Jushangyuji Investment Company. ’

"Does this mean?" Garen suddenly understood as he touched the paper.

"Nonosiwa's parents are just ordinary employees. This position in any subject should be the price for me to give up and admit defeat this time. It's really a good balance, simple and effective."

He knew that such a change in position would bring huge earth-shaking changes to the entire family. The position of a deputy section chief would at least double the income every year, and the income of both people would more than double. The economic environment of the entire family will also be greatly improved, which is also a bargaining chip offered by the other party that is difficult to refuse.

In such a school, faced with classmates and peers who can change the fate of everyone in their family with just a few words, it is no wonder that the original Nonosiwa was so extreme and inferior and introverted. This is simply not the kind of pressure a teenager should be under.

"So, how should I deal with this matter?" Garen took the letter and thought carefully.

He is really thinking carefully. According to the progress of the game, tomorrow's second game of the finals is probably the second game of the loser's group challenge. In other words, the opponent is the elite of the loser's group. Now he is sending this exchange condition. I also want to seize the winner's group position in Class C5.

This is somewhat inconsistent with Garen's previous calculations.

"Moreover, the price of this exchange is less." Garen has no objection to cracking down on match-fixing. As long as the goal is achieved, the process and means are not important. It's just that the exchange conditions offered by the other party are a bit too little and not worthwhile.

Toot toot toot

Suddenly the watch terminal rang, and a call came in at this time.

Garen raised his wrist and looked at it. There was no caller ID number, only an image of a cluster of dark blue daffodils. He waited for a moment, quickly opened the tablet, clicked on it for a while, then connected a data cable to the watch terminal, and then pressed the connect button on the watch.

"Hello, we are Blue Narcissus. Have you received the letter to you?" As soon as the call was connected, a hoarse female voice came in.

Garen glanced at the screen of a software he had compiled on his tablet computer. The wavy curves on it were slightly undulating. Come back.

"I received the letter, but given my ability, the price is too low."

"??" The other party was obviously stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Garen to say this directly. Those who can enter the qualifying matches are undoubtedly characters with excellent strength and talent and arrogance. When it comes to asking them to deliberately admit defeat, they will definitely Fuhui didn't have a good face or tone, but this time Garen actually started bargaining with her calmly.
