On Tuesday, Poplar still got up early in the morning, and after breakfast, hurried to the small park with a wooden knife.

A few minutes later, the figure of the poplar tree appeared in the small park and walked towards the big tree where he practiced yesterday.

Under the big tree, there were three middle-aged people, each holding a wooden knife, waving it casually, looking a little weak because they were not familiar with the rules.

Seeing the poplar tree coming over, several middle-aged people surrounded him.

"Little brother, you can count it, this knife is really not easy to use, no matter how you wield it, you can't do it. The middle-aged man with sparse hair from yesterday stepped forward and said, wielding a wooden knife at the same time.

"Well, it's hard to use, but you just need to get the right position. Yang Shu replied casually, "Without further ado, I'll teach you the posture of holding a knife first." ”

It took nearly ten minutes for Poplar to correct the knife gripping posture of several uncles and teach them the preparatory posture, then let them practice on their own, and he continued to swing the knife at the tree.

When the poplar left the park, he still swung 5,000 knives.

Soon, the day passed and the school bell rang. One morning and one afternoon, Poplar got a mid-2 value of 150 points, and he was standing at the door of the activity room with Anyi and Rachel.

Pushing the door in, as usual, Chu Qiu arrived first, and was warming up in the activity room.

"It's all here, can you go?" Chu Qiu put down the dumbbell in his hand and asked.

"Well, that's fine. Poplar nodded in affirmation.

"Okay, let's go. Chu Qiu didn't ink, walked straight out of the door of the activity room, and led everyone towards the outside of the school.

"Where is the meeting place?" asked Poplar on the way.

"It's on Shuanglong Street in JN District, and we can just go over for a field trip, but it's a little far, and we have made an appointment at 7 o'clock in the evening, so we have to hurry. Chu Qiu replied.

"Oh. ”

A group of four people did not take their own means of transportation, but came to the subway station and took the subway to the JN area.

This is a habit of the Federation Operators, some bloodthirsty supernatural creatures tend to haunt densely populated areas, especially public transportation, and the use of the public transportation system by the operators in non-emergency situations can serve as a warning to a certain extent.

In the building of a company in JN District, a young man wearing a blue suit and a black and white striped tie ran downstairs in a hurry, ignoring the loud shouting of the manager behind him: "Mo Qiushui, dare to leave as soon as you get off work, don't you want to be confused!"

The man named Mo Qiushui looked at his watch with a helpless face, did not reply, and resolutely ran out of the building.

Suddenly, a bell rang, he picked up his phone, put it to his ear, and said, "Hey, wife, what's the matter?"

"The child's milk powder has been drunk again, you can buy an extra bucket when you come back tonight, and you have to pay off the mortgage at the end of the month······"

Mo Qiushui's wife chattered on the other end of the phone for a long time, all of which were short things for parents such as water bills, electricity bills, and mortgages, and Mo Qiushui was a little impatient when she heard it.

"I know, I'll transfer the money to your card when the salary is paid at the end of the month. He said, "I still have something to do, and it's not convenient to answer the phone, so I'll hang up first." ”

"Wait, one more thing. ”

"What?"

"It's your birthday today, I bought some good food, and called a few of your good buddies to come back early in the evening. ”

The phone hung up.

Mo Qiushui slowed down, put down his phone, thinking about his wife and children, and suddenly felt that his eyes were a little sour.

"After this mission is completed, I will apply to be transferred to the second line. He smiled, turned and pushed the door open, entering a nearby café.

On the signboard of the café, "Phantom Light" is written, and there is a line of small words below it - Life is like night, love is phantom light.

The café was only one floor and had a retro interior, so he first greeted the clerk when he entered—it seemed to be a regular customer—and then walked straight to the restroom, entered the innermost cubicle, and pressed the flush button three times.

The wall behind the toilet moved back, making way for a space, Mo Qiushui walked in and pressed a button on the side - 1.5, it turned out that this was an elevator.

The walls are closed and the elevator rises.

Soon, the elevator stopped, and Mo Qiushui walked out of the elevator room, there was still a café outside, and on one side was a large floor-to-ceiling window, through which the traffic on the street could be seen, and the public toilet where PDCU-6332 was located was also in sight.

It seems that this is the so-called 1.5 floor, but it is not visible from the outside.

At this time, the café was not quiet, and groups of people sat together and talked in low voices.

"Yo, isn't that a hobby?" said a bearded, big-nosed, pigtailed man behind the bar as he burped.

Standing behind the bar, he could barely have a pair of eyes, and he was only a little over one meter tall, looking like a legendary dwarf.

Mo Qiushui exhaled and pretended to be bold: "Didn't I come, give me a glass of ale, I have a task." ”

······

The four poplars also came to the "phantom light" café, and poplars squinted and looked up.

"Didn't you say that the meeting place was on the 1.5th floor of the 'Phantom Light Cafe'? He asked.

As soon as the words fell, he received a message from Chu Qiu in the Book of Souls.

"Chu Qiu: I forgot to tell you, you will go directly to the toilet later, find the innermost compartment, press the flush button three times, and an elevator will appear, and you can take the elevator to the 1.5th floor.

Poplar: So interesting? Is there a place to find a pillar between two platforms and crash headfirst into it?

Medium two +30

Chu Qiu: There are similar places, and I will take you around when I have time in the future. ”

Consciousness withdrew from the book of souls, and Poplar immediately ran into the café in high spirits,

rushed straight into the toilet, causing the customers in the store to look sideways, and the clerk was also helpless.

Chu Qiu walked into the store and greeted the clerk, who smiled politely, and the canine teeth on the side of his mouth were particularly sharp when he smiled.

A minute later, Yang Shu and Chu Qiu stepped out of the elevator almost at the same time and came to the hidden 1.5th floor.

Poplar looked around curiously, looking at the customers in the store.

From the point of view of energy intensity, the customers in the store all have a certain amount of supernatural energy, but they are all relatively weak, and the strongest ones are on the same level as An Yi.

Their outfits are also varied, with tights, martial arts suits, Spider-Man suits everywhere, and some even wear exoskeleton armor with a sense of technology. There are also some customers who have some inhuman features, such as pointed ears, red pupils, green skin, bandages, etc.

Yang Shu leaned into Chu Qiu's ear and whispered, "Chu Qiu, why are there so many superpowers here, and why are those people so strange." ”

He gestured to the customers with distinctly inhuman features.

Chu Qiu glanced sideways slightly, and replied, "This is the largest superpower exchange center in the JN district, and it is also open to free superpowers who have not joined the organization, so there are more people. As for those few, they were elves, bloods, orcs, and mummies, not human beings in the first place. ”

Chu Qiu didn't deliberately lower his voice, and the words he said entered the ears of those aliens, among them, the green-skinned orc was a little angry, slapped the table and was about to get up, but was pulled by the mummy on the side.

The mummy pointed to a shield-shaped badge on Chu Qiu's shoulder.

On the badge, there is a "V" written upside down, and there is a horizontal and two sides in the middle, and three lines enclose the outside of the area, which is pitch black, and the inside is pure white.

"That's the people of the Federation. The sound of the mummy was like a clay pot in a pyramid shattering to the ground, old and piercing.

"I'm sorry, I thought it was racist. The orc touched his bald head and apologized to Chu Qiu.

"It's fine. Chu Qiu shook his head and replied.

"Why did he apologize to you?" asked Poplar, puzzled.

"Because the Federation has always been committed to maintaining good relations between various races, promoting the peaceful coexistence of all races, and every year it sends a large group of people to help those who are weak. "Three hundred years ago, all races except the Terrans could only live in dark corners, and they would be surrounded and suppressed as soon as they appeared. ”

"So, whoever wants to say that the people of the federation are racist, is an absolute joke. Chu Qiu further said.

"Yes, if it weren't for the Federation, we wouldn't have been able to sit here and drink coffee. The female elf sighed.

"Respectfully!" she said in a loud voice.

"Respect the Federation!" Nearly half of the customers in the café raised their cups in their hands and saluted Chu Qiu.

Chu Qiu stopped at a table by the window, where a man was sitting and napping with his eyes closed, with a glass of ale in front of him, which had long been drunk.

"You're 'enthusiastic', right?" asked Chu Qiu.

Mo Qiushui was awakened, rubbed his eyes, looked at Chu Qiu, showed a smile, and replied: "Yes, my name is Mo Qiushui, code name 'Enthusiasm', first-level investigator." ”

"My name is Chu Qiu, code name 'Qiu Shi', a second-level cleaner. ”

"My name is Poplar, codename 'Yajiu', Level 0 Cleaner. ”

"My name is Anyi, codename is 'Qingxu', level 0 cleaner. ”

"My name is Rachel, codename 'Dogtooth', and I'm from the London Division, a First Class Day Knight. ”

After listening to this series of self-introductions, Mo Qiushui was a little surprised, paused, and said, "Your team is very ······ It's rare!"

When Chu Qiu heard this, he sighed, and felt empathy: "It's really rare to have such a strange team!"

The remaining poplar three looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

"Let me explain it to your captain. Mo Qiushui said, "Most of the current teams of the Federation, except for some large-scale exploration, pioneering missions and dangerous annihilation missions, do not need too many manpower, so most of the teams are two people, occasionally there are three people, and it is rare to see four people." ”

"And your members' hierarchies span so much that it's hard to cooperate. ”
