0002 Catch the Underworld
"Dear passengers, the 157th train from the Demon Realm to the Underworld is about to arrive at the terminal 'Afterlife', so please bring your belongings and prepare to transfer to the ferry. www.biquge.info In addition, according to the "Lockdown Ordinance of the Well of Gods and Demons", passengers who are scheduled to transfer to the fairy world are requested to be examined by the Immortal Inspector after getting off the train. ”
When the train entered the station with dark red tones on the outskirts of the underworld, as a kind of spiritual power fluctuation with a sense of inspection swept by, a female voice without any emotion sounded in the car, and the surrounding humanoid and non-humanoid passengers began to pack their luggage or move their bodies after hearing it, and when Wei Yi went to get the bag at his feet, he noticed that the two old men in front of him frowned slightly.
"Hmph, I don't want to see those rigid and dogmatic guys in the fairy world, hurry up."
The old man snorted, lifted a long package under the seat and put it behind his back, and stretched out his hand for the old woman to borrow.
"It's been so many years, and I still can't let it go."
The old woman shook her head and stood up with the huge package containing the food box in one hand and the old man's arm in the other.
"Well, I'll get you two off the bus, it's kind of early work."
Although there is no such thing as respecting the old and loving the young in the underworld - there is no necessary relationship between appearance and age here - there is still a lot of visual pressure to see the little thin old lady carrying the large package that is almost half a person high, so Wei Yi hurriedly followed and helped down.
"Hehehe, I don't remember the Underworld doing this kind of work, but thank you so much, young man."
The old man stepped off the train, looked back at Wei Yi, who was struggling to help the old woman, seemed to be in a better mood, and then looked around the station:
"It looks like the underworld has changed a lot."
The train stops not in the open air, but inside a huge building, with dozens of tracks running parallel on both sides of the train, and there are interconnected overpasses between the platforms for passengers to get off, and at the other two ends of the track array, there are many exits with signs for different destinations.
Is it just three years that has changed so much...... It seems that the impact of using the underworld as a transit place is not ordinary...... It may take more effort to achieve the original goal.
Wei Yi thought as he helped the big package and the two old men to walk out of the gate with the words "Main City Three", the two sides of the passage are transparent materials, you can see that the passengers who got off the train have scattered and diverted to different destinations, and some lost people are asking the employees at the station, it seems that the uniform style of those employees is indeed quite similar to the dress on Wei Yi's body.
"The technology of the human world is spreading really fast, look at these, tsk."
Walking out of the passage of the station, at a glance, you will see a huge, surrounded by golden light, as tall as a five- or six-story attic, with unknown purple runes circulating on it, with it as the center, several commercial streets are distributed in a circular water wave, and the blue-black ring city wall that encircles the entire main city is stopped, during which all kinds of shops are scattered, and tourists of all ethnic groups are flowing
If you don't look at the appearance of tourists and shopkeepers, you might think that you have arrived in some large commercial city in the human world, and the old man who is traveling with him does not seem to be interested in this busy city, and he is staring at a small machine car that has just passed in front of him with dissatisfaction.
"They should be the technology of the 'third new machine room', the product of the miniaturization of the mechanism train we were in before, if it weren't for the special underworld, those people also plan to promote the technology of the mechanism flying ship - uh, these are taught in the Death Academy, I just read from the script."
After holding the old woman's large package firmly on the ground, Wei Yi explained to the old man, but was glared at instead.
"Ignore him, this dead old man has always disliked similar things, this time I agreed to take the car because I was so talkative, shouldn't you go to the fast house to report? It's not good to miss the time the first time, we live in the East End and you are always welcome to play. The old woman hammered the old man and smiled at Wei Yi.
"Ah...... Well, then I'll go first, and I'll visit the house in the future. ”
Wei Yi also wanted to help the two old men send their luggage home, but when he saw the old woman skillfully raising her hand to waive the car, she touched her nose and gave up, and after saying goodbye to the two elders, she began to flip through the map to find the location of the Underworld Capture Fast House.
Although a lot of things have been expanded, the general layout has not changed, and I remember that it is ......
――――
No. 107 Grim Reaper, Your Excellency Wei Yi: After research, it has been decided that you have been assigned to the Underworld Capture Headquarters located in the main city of the "Afterlife", and the Special Operations Agency of the Underworld Capture has taken up its position, please report within half a month after seeing the letter. -- Office of the Coordination of the Hunting Organization.
"Well, this should be it."
Wei Yi was standing in front of a three-story building, looking at a letter seriously, and finally confirmed that the seal at the end of the letter was exactly the same as the huge word "catch" on the shadow wall of the small building in front of him.
"Hello, is there anything I need help with?"
Wei Yi walked into the fast catching room and glanced around, although the billboards, rest chairs, reception counters and other items he saw were not new, but they were neat enough, even the bluestone floors and bonsai leaves were spotless, it was obvious that someone often cleaned them, if nothing else, it should be a young woman who quickly stood up behind the reception counter after seeing herself, and greeted her regardless of whether she could hear it or not.
Dressed in an orthodox dark blue catcher outfit, his ear-length hair is slightly curled, and he wears a small hat on his head that is a little crooked, and his big eyes look at this side and clearly write: "There must be something."
Newcomer, trying to do something to prove herself, and looking at her clumsy appearance, probably the catchers usually hardly receive requests for help from residents, so if the "Special Operations Agency" I want to take up is not a department with relatively high combat intensity, it is ......
"No, I'm actually newly assigned here, and I may have to work with you in the future."
Wei Yi walked to the front of the stage as he spoke, watching the girl's flexible eyes change from anticipation to disappointment to happiness as she handed over the letter of introduction, first in surprise and then in doubt.
"You've passed the Grim Reaper test, that's pretty good - but we don't have this department called the 'Secret Hunting Special Operations Agency', is it part of the Guardian of the Border? We sometimes go to support - well, not really. ”
The girl tilted her head in confusion, then turned to click quickly on the greenish touch screen behind the counter, and finally shook her head in certainty.
"It shouldn't be the Guardian, and lo and behold, it says 'Main City'. If I'm not mistaken, it should be a new department, think about it, has any senior catcher brought in an outsider today? ”
Wei Yi nodded slightly in conviction, then raised his hand and clicked on the keywords on his introduction letter, and then asked the girl with a smile.
"Speaking ......" "Enough."
The receptionist girl was trying to think, but was interrupted halfway by a deep male voice from the side hallway.
Turning his eyes to look at the place where the voice came from, there was a middle-aged man lined with white clothes and half covered in green robes at the corner of the corridor, with a sturdy physique, a square face, a slight beard, thick eyebrows, a pair of eyes that seemed to be unable to lift anything, and he looked like he was not energetic, and he was pacing behind his back with his hands behind his back.
"Ah, Ren's senior." "Hello Director."
The girl greeted the middle-aged man, but was puzzled by the title of "Director", so she tilted her head strangely to look at Wei Yi.
"You don't have to worry about him, Weiwei, I'll take over this kid - you, come with me."
The middle-aged man nodded at the receptionist girl, and kept walking past Wei Yi to another corridor opposite the position he had just appeared, and greeted him as he passed by, as if he was still dissatisfied with some kind of dissatisfaction that his plan had failed.
Is it a mistake or a failure...... But it seems to be the same result...... Anyway, let's keep up first.
Wei Yi smiled at the girl who was called Weiwei, and turned to follow the "Ren Senpai" who was walking towards the corridor on the other side with the sleeves of his robe thrown in front of him.
"You guessed it right, I'm the director of the newly established 'Secret Capture Special Operations Agency', Ren Kui, you can call it whatever you want, I don't pay attention to these."
Turning the corner of the corridor, Ren Kui was waiting there, looking at Wei Yi, who seemed to have predicted it in advance and slowed down, and did not stop in embarrassment, a bright light of regret mixed with appreciation flashed in his eyes.
"Okay, Director, now is the time to submit your inauguration report? Or do you want to introduce your future colleagues? ”
Wei Yi bowed to Ren Kuiwei, took out a briefcase from his bag, held it in his hand but did not hand it out, but turned his gaze to a door behind the director where the faint sound of conversation could be heard.
"Huh...... Sure enough, as the guy who recommended you said, he was very perceptive and acted perfectly,"
Ren Kui stretched out his hand to take the briefcase, opened it and flipped through it at will, returned it to Wei Yi, turned around and pushed open the door behind him:
"Since you caused me to lose a table of wine, then I will have to work hard to pay it back in the future, now, go meet the other members of the Special Operations Agency."
For this reason, it is also in the scope of consideration, and since the small difficulties are over, I should officially start working, and I hope to get along with my future teammates.
Wei Yi dressed a little nervously and followed the commissioner into the office.
