Chapter 1 New Tokyo doesn't believe in love(1/3)

Wano Country, New Tokyo Capital.

Now under the rule of the Tianren World Government, this place is also called the "Academy City".

The tram speeds through the tunnel.

A whistle whistle sounded in my ears.

In the slightly crowded carriage of the Hanzomen Line train, the passengers holding the support rod shook gently. A high school boy, like other "head-down people" around him, stared at his phone with the slightly crowded carriage, occasionally raising his head to look around, and his eyes accidentally swept across the window glass facing him.

In the dark tunnel, the bright lights in the car make the window glass reflect particularly clearly, reflecting the appearance of a 16 or 17-year-old boy. The figure under the black shirt looks a little thin and thin, and the pale face seems to be malnourished for a long time. However, the face and facial features under the slightly long slanted bangs on the forehead are too outstanding and eye-catching. No matter where you put it, you can be called a handsome Tokyo guy.

Higashinohara looked at the reflection on the car window, her eyes drifted to the side, passing through a pair of "couples" reflected on the car window glass.

The man is about forty years old, and he looks at his classmate or above in the company. Although he is bald on his forehead, he exudes the temperament of a backbone elite in the workplace.

The girl next to her is much younger, in her twenties, and looks like a young bird who is just a young man. She looks very dependent on her in the crowded carriage.

This age gap...

Either they are flirting with big men or extramarital affairs.

True love?

Sorry, New Tokyo doesn't believe in "tears".

......

The phone camera is slightly raised,

Align the car window.

Focus...

Higashinohara touches the shooting virtual key on the screen.

The next second, there were no common flashes or clicks, and the picture was frozen on his screen.

It has to be said that the customized high-definition image numbers equipped by the Detective Office is very clear even when taking pictures of the reflected images of the tram glass, and there are no flashes and sounds that cannot be turned off.

Higashinohara took several photos in a row, then he lowered his head calmly and continued to be the "head-down clan" of his tram.

However, he sighed lightly in his heart, his face a little helpless.

There is no way, it’s not that Higashino’s original hobby of secret photography, but it’s really all for life.

It is not easy to live in Tokyo.

Even New Tokyo is the same.

Higashinohara's mind was helpless and a call he received when he was on duty as a part-time discipline committee member in this area after high school.

On the phone, the unscrupulous uncle who provided accommodation for his study in New Tokyo shattered Higashinohara's "reservedness" in just half a month's rent reduction, forcing him to take on this so-called "big order".

The detective firm currently running by the unscrupulous uncle, which seems to be a possible bankruptcy at any time, is currently receiving the biggest order, which is probably an extramarital affair investigation.

That's right, the middle-aged man who just took a secret photo on Higashinohara's mobile phone was the protagonist of this extramarital affair investigation - his wife suspected that he had cheated on an affair and commissioned the Aragaki Detective Firm to collect evidence that was conducive to court divorce.

What happened to be a book...

A week ago, the man also entrusted the Aragaki Detective Office to investigate his wife. After obtaining the evidence, he looked at the different men who cheated with his wife in the photo... and various interesting props that he had never seen before...

It was so heartbreaking that I cried.

Unexpectedly, a week later, the protagonist became himself.

Higashinohara clicked to shoot again.

......

The speeding tram stopped at one stop after another, the door opened and closed, some people got in and some got out, and then they roared into the dark tunnel that seemed to have no end.

Suddenly, the LCD screen on the wall of the tram was playing advertisements and a girl with messy hair appeared. Her clothes looked a little worn and dirty. The most eye-catching one was her short silver hair and the pair of milky white cat ears on both sides of her head. When you look closely, it really looked a bit like the short cat ears of the previous life.

If Higashinohara, who had just arrived in this world half a year ago, might still doubt whether the two ears in front of him were fake ears, in order to cater to some strange cat ear girl XP system.

Now, he no longer has such suspicion.

After spending half a year to understand the history of this world, Higashinohara thought that this should be a cat-eared girl in front of her... No, cat woman, a cat woman of the "Heaven and Man", looking at her pupils and appearance, it is not certainly a cat woman with impure blood. Most of the ancestors were the offspring of the "Heaven and Man" and the "Heaven and Man" who implemented the policy of intermarriage between the "Heaven and Man" and humans more than 500 years ago.

"Wow! Have you stole 80 million yen of jewelry?"

"Catwoman is a Tmall clan, right?"

"Ha, I've said it a long time ago, there are not many good things for those gods."

"Shh! Speak quietly! Be careful to be heard by the eyes and ears of the ruling department of the Tianren Government."

“…”

Listening to the whispers of passengers around the tram, Higashinohara narrowed her eyes and glanced at the notice issued by the New Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

theft?

Wanted?

The narrator on TV said that a jewelry and jade shop in Setagaya District, the 13th District of New Tokyo, which is commonly known as the "rich area", was stolen. When reporting the case, the male owner of the club said that he was possessed and unconsciously led the catwoman thief into the jewelry store on the fourth floor of his villa.

After waking up, I realized that I had lost jewelry and jade worth at least 80 million yen.

The wanted department of the Metropolitan Police Department also specifically reminded: Catwoman thieves are likely to be capable of controlling mental abilities, and enthusiastic citizens who hope to jointly arrest must be careful.

A capable person?

Higashinohara was not surprised when she heard this.

The new Tokyo in this world is also known as the "Academic City" in Wano Country. It is known as the four major academies in the country, as well as scientific research institutes about the fruits of ability. The proportion of urban academies is the highest in the country.

To be ashamed, the high school student named Higashinohara, the world's high school student is one of the "ability players". The tragic second-level low-level ability player has the ability to be called the [Shadow Moment] speed-based ability. At present, he can only use his full strength to create an extra phantom out of thin air. It is said that he can improve his ability to the extreme and can appear four super-speed real shadow formations during battle.

This is for the instant prison shadow killing formation!

Well, although this sounds like a middle school second, it is domineering.

In fact, in the world's talent ability sequence, [Xingshu] is a gray ordinary ability with talent sequence number ranking 98, and is still quite different from the green excellent ability of the top 72-36 in the world.

Even if you really fight, improving your strength level through acquired efforts may make up for some gaps in the ability sequence, but it is difficult to make up for the gaps in the blue high-risk abilities with the top 36-20 talent sequence numbers.

Compared with the world's top purple epic ability owners and pirates who are in charge of one part of the continent or the four major seas, with talent serial numbers topped the top 20-10, it is even more a huge gap between the clouds and muds, and it cannot be made up for the acquired efforts to improve.

As for the top ten talent sequences of orange world-destroying abilities, it has never appeared in the historical text for more than a thousand years.

Higashinohara is currently in the second stage 1.

A total of nine stages and five stages of ability. When you reach the fourth stage, you can be called a superpower. Above the sixth stage, you are one of the few absolute abilities in the world who control the fields.

However, the serial number of the ability determines the initial value and upper growth limit of this ability, that is, the highest level of ability that can reach. A capable person with gray serial number like Higashinohara wants to improve the level is like climbing a steep peak, one step at a time. I don’t know how many talents with the ability person with a lower number can only stay at the next third level for the rest of his life.

It is rumored that if a person with a lower serial number wants to counterattack, unless he has the ability to have growth, he can achieve an extremely rare secondary awakening advancement through the extreme digging of his own abilities, breaking the shackles of the ability sequence - that is, to be promoted from the lower ability of the same-line to the upper ability of the same-line.

What a pity is that...the examples of advanced capability serial number are among the few in the past thousand years under the rule of the celestial government. For most ordinary superpowers, they can basically be regarded as an impossible event as a "miracle".

When Higashinohara arrived in this world half a year ago, it was the second stage one. Half a year later, it was still the second stage one. If the academic test next year cannot meet the standards, it will not be able to reconcile for the third time, and it will most likely be persuaded to quit by the school.

It's really hard to resist thinking about it.

It's completely incompatible with the law of time travelers...

Alas, let's get the rent for half a month now...

......

After the tram arrived at Kamibocho Station and got off, the middle-aged man took the simple female subordinate home without any accident. When they arrived downstairs, they warmly invited each other. They pushed each other half and half, and then they tacitly went upstairs together.

Next to the vending machine downstairs, Higashinohara, who looked up at this scene, leaned over there, holding the canned hot coffee in the hall and sucking in small mouthfuls, thinking about when it would be more appropriate to go up to collect evidence according to the progress of the middle-aged man...

Unexpectedly, it took a short while.

A shadow swayed under the turbid yellow lights in the corridor.

Hum? It's coming out so soon?

Higashinohara's face looked strange, but her mouth couldn't help but open slightly the next second.

The cold wind in late autumn blew back and forth.

A middle-aged man with a bruised nose and a swollen face, wearing only pink boxers all over his body, and his face was full of dismay, gradually showing his face outline in the dim corridor, and he was holding a loose empty wallet in his hand.

You can vaguely hear the young man saying "Dare to berate my girlfriend" on the stairs behind him, "I will let you go for the sake of losing money, be careful!" and other scoldings.

Ah this?

Good guy...what's the situation?

Could it be that the immortal jumps?

......

I'm so stupid!

real!

When Takuto Akiyoshi walked down the corridor and stepped on the ground with his last foot, his mind was dazed, his body almost fell down, and he staggered towards the bus stop sign on the street.

I thought I could get my youthful heartbeat back, but I didn't expect that I would almost get my myocardial infarction.
To be continued...
