Nagisa Aragaki stood in the city subway that runs from central Edo to Shimojo, and his mood was not calm for a long time.

There were too many accidents today, and the mixed thoughts collided and blended with each other, and in the end, only one scene was left in Nagisa Aragaki's mind... The scenery of the heavy peaks and mountains.

"Miyuki-san is really big... Oh no, what a nice guy..."

Nagisa Aragaki silently sighed that he was now grateful to his "life-saver" and was ashamed of his somewhat "ridiculous" ideas at the moment.

I don't know what's going on, but when I'm with Miyuki Kobayashi, the idea of wanting to "enter her" in Nagisa Aragaki's mind has been lingering.

Even now, when he left the Goethe Building, he always thought about Miyuki Kobayashi, which made Nagisa Aragaki very distressed.

"I'm not such a person, am I? What the hell is going on... Could it be the influence left by the original owner? ”

Nagisa Aragaki couldn't think about riding his sister, although he dared to guarantee that he had no dirty thoughts about Miyuki Kobayashi in his heart, but the "longing" that seemed to come from the depths of his soul could not be faked, and this feeling of "soul and flesh out of sync" made him feel uncomfortable.

"Could it be that ... The original owner is actually a mature woman in the year? And infected me with his XP? ”

Nagisa Aragaki made a bold guess, and then began to search for the big sister nearby with her afterglow, carefully verifying.

But although there are many beautiful big sisters around her, they don't have the "heartbeat" feeling when facing Miyuki Kobayashi? Could it be that ... Is it because Miyuki Kobayashi and Yuko Aragaki are somewhat similar?

STOP - Nagisa Aragaki didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Although it was in a nearly full train, the carriage was relatively quiet, with most of the passengers dressed as white-collar workers, and a few students in sailor suits standing in the corner.

All of them, without exception, sat or stood in silence.

The carriage was crowded, but the atmosphere was a little oppressive.

Of course, these people are not in a daze, they are looking at the front of their eyes quite attentively, obviously interacting with the brain-computer terminal, and those white-collar workers may be working remotely.

The brain-computer interaction technology of this era has been able to do it in the eyes of Nagisa Aragaki before the crossing, which is almost a superpower.

He now has a latest-type external brain computer attached to the back of his head, which is so light that he can barely feel it.

The brain-computer can collect, interpret and organize the electrical signals emitted by the cerebral cortex, and immediately feedback the limited information into the accessory glasses of the external brain-computer to complete the interaction.

It's hard to imagine such a complex technology now being condensed into a small patch on the back of the head.

Nagisa Aragaki remembers that before his crossover, brain-computer technology was still in the laboratory stage, and people were still arguing about which was the right way to go, invasive and non-invasive.

Today, both technologies are maturing.

To some extent, everyone in this day and age is a superpower.

There are many people in the carriage who wear external head-mounted brain computers like Nagisa Aragaki do, and relatively speaking, the richer people are, the less they like to stuff some strange machines into their bodies, unless they are really missing arms and legs.

On the contrary, people in the lower city and outside the city are more accustomed to using embedded brain computers, so at least they don't have to worry about the brain machine being stolen by others.

For example, the unilateral glasses that Nagisa Aragaki is wearing at the moment, similar to the "combat power detector", look like high-end goods, and he is very worried that he will be targeted by people after he goes to Xiacheng District, and his brain machine will be knocked out by someone.

Although Nagisa Aragaki has now awakened the "superpower" that sounds amazing, there is no doubt that his combat power is still only 5, and no one can beat him with a small body.

Fortunately, he did not fall into the disorderly outer city, he now has the status of a "company employee", and if something happens, he can at least call a policeman.

But even so, Nagisa Aragaki still had a feeling when he left the subway, and he pulled up his hood, for fear of meeting the gangsters in the morning again.

But the more you don't want it to happen, the easier it is to backfire, and Nagisa Aragaki returns to the downstairs of his apartment and observes in the dark, and before anyone can come up, he is discovered.

"Boss! Got it! He's here!"

“......”

Before Nagisa Aragaki could react to run away, he was already surrounded by these guys, and this group of people was afraid that they hadn't squatted here for a whole day! It's really a pain in the egg, right?

"Yo, isn't this Aragaki-kun? Didn't you get hurt in the morning? How did it get better so quickly? ”

It was Kazuo Takahashi with a gloomy face who ran in front of him, compared to the morning, he had an extra wound on his forehead, and there were still red marks on his face, and his expression was extremely ugly.

Nagisa Aragaki guessed that he was taught a lesson because he didn't catch himself and lost his face.

"You kid can't run! Run again now!? ”

"You dare to fool us with a fake knife, you kid can!"

Several other thugs also rushed around, arrogantly pushing Nagisa Aragaki arrogantly.

Nagisa Aragaki had no doubt that they would dare to beat themselves up in the street, and in order to avoid such a tragedy, Nagisa Aragaki decided to strike first.

"Wait a minute! Guys, I can pay you back! ”

Aragaki Nagisa immediately took the lead and opened his mouth to admit it.

"What? Pay back? ”

Kazuo Takahashi sneered: "The chip you bought last night is an Athena chip that sells for 10,000 euros!" Where did you get the money back!? ”

“？？ But I only borrowed 5,000 Chinese dollars from you! ”

Aragaki Nagisa was furious, 10,000 euros can be exchanged for more than 20,000 Chinese dollars, and he only has 5,000 yuan on him.

"Then I don't care, the market price of this chip is like this, since the thing is bad in your hands, you naturally have to repay the debt."

Kazuo Takahashi pouted and sneered:

"What? You can't get it yet, right? Then come with us obediently, and don't force us to do it! Stop playing tricks! ”

Nagisa Aragaki took a deep breath and said slowly:

"I've got a job, give me some time, I can pay it back."

"Yo? Did you really get a job? But how much can you earn in a month? Hahahaha, a thousand? Eight hundred? How long will it take you to pay it back? ”

"Six thousand Chinese yuan, give me a few months, I can pay it back."

"You-"

The gangsters who were about to open their mouths to mock Nagisa Aragaki listened to this, and they were stuck in place for a while, their faces were weird, and their eyes flashed.

"Really got a job?"

"Six thousand? You can have a monthly salary of 6,000 without graduating from high school? ”

"No, this kid didn't pretend to have a prosthetic body, and he got a brain machine for nothing? Where did the wronged company come from? ”

"Is the company still short of people? Can you take me with you? ”

"Bastard——! Shut up! ”

Seeing that his teammates were almost about to mutiny, Kazuo Takahashi's face darkened, and he stared at Nagisa Aragaki with his electronic compound eyes, and through brain-computer recognition, he saw Nagisa Aragaki deliberately revealing his new identity:

[TCPD Key Protection Sequence], [D-level Member of the Protective Color Trauma Group]

"You actually joined the company!?"

Kazuo Takahashi's expression was a little broken, in fact, he could see without asking that only those super companies with deep pockets would buy these insurance services for their employees, and the gangsters would generally not provoke these guys who bought insurance.

Although the police in Edo like violent law enforcement, corruption and bribery, black and white... But it's also the strongest violent agency in the Edo region... One of them, not something that ordinary gangsters can provoke.

Kazuo Takahashi naturally knew that the current Aragaki Nagisa was different from the little ghost who was manipulated in the morning, but he was not very willing to give up like this, and, why...

"I have a signal jammer here..."

Kazuo Takahashi gasped for breath, his nose ring shaking and winking at a few of his accomplices.

Several gangsters looked at each other, but their opinions were a little unanimous.

"It's... Forget it, we can't afford to mess with this kid now. ”

"Is that just going to let him go!? We've been squatting this kid for a day!! ”

"Anyway, if you get him back, you won't pay us! But if you alarm the trauma team, aren't you afraid of death? ”

"A bunch of rubbish! Unload his brain and plug in the signal jammer, who can find us!? Take advantage of the opportunity now to do it! ”

As soon as Kazuo Takahashi gave the order, he was ready to arrest someone, and Nagisa Aragaki knew that he was invincible, but he didn't panic because his rescuers arrived.

"Warning!!, the suspect in front, standing to the side with his hands raised! Otherwise we're going to shoot!! ”

A police motorcycle circled the corner of the street and appeared in the field of vision of several people, and the police officer sitting in the back seat was shouting loudly in this direction with a small bullhorn.

"Damn, this little ghost actually called the police! Vile! Come on! ”

Kazuo Takahashi and the others scattered in fright, but this time they didn't run away so easily, and the policeman sitting behind the motorcycle jumped down and landed next to Nagisa Aragaki, while the patrolman on the motorcycle continued to chase after the gang.

"Identity confirmed, the target is not harmed, it has been confirmed that it is safe, hello, I am Daniel, Adachi Border District Patrol Officer, number TZ-95266, for--uh, at your service, Mr. Aragaki."

Under the patrolman's high-tech ring-shaped glasses, a look of embarrassment flashed away, and at the same time that he recognized Nagisa Aragaki, Nagisa Aragaki also recognized him.

Because this officer is the white patrolman who helped him get out of trouble in the morning, listening to his name, he is probably a hairy man.

It's just that neither of them expected that only half a day had passed, and the two would meet again in this way.

"Thank you, officer."

Although he could see the distance between the police and himself in the glasses after calling the police, he was still a little panicked when he was surrounded by a few big men just now, but now that he is safe, Nagisa Aragaki breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're welcome, you're at your service, sir."

The officer's expression was also a little strange, and in the morning, he was still a teenager with no household and became a key customer of the company, which was somewhat emotional.

"Don't worry, those criminals will be punished as they deserve, we TCPD will protect the safety of every Edo resident, do you need any other help?"

"Uh, no need, thank you..."

Aragaki Nagisa thought to himself that those people should not dare to trouble him again in the short term:

"May I leave?"

"Of course, the scene where you were coerced by them just now has been recorded, and after those gangsters are caught, the TCPD will inform you of the results of their disposition, and you can leave with peace of mind now."

"Okay, then I'll go."

Aragaki Nagisa's mood is a little complicated, this matter has nothing to do with him in the future, it belongs to the TCPD business, he has been in this area on the edge of the legal system for a month, and he knows a little about the doorway.

Generally speaking, the police don't care about street fights in the streets, especially in the outer cities, where the police don't necessarily collect the bodies of murderers, but there are prisons in Edo, and the prisons are often overcrowded.

Because the premise of wanting the police to ignore you is not to provoke customers who have purchased security services, once the interests of TCPD's customers are harmed, these corporate police have a reason to arrest people and put them in prison, that is, free labor +1.

Of course, the most useful thing in Edo is always money, and as long as the money is in place, the prisoners in the prison can basically be released on bail, and anyway, it is all business, and it depends on who gives the most money.

So Aragaki Nagisa didn't expect any punishment for those bastards, not to mention whether they would be caught hiding in the outer city, and even if they did, they might come out the next day.

The identity of the person protected by TCPD can only ensure their own security to a certain extent, and there is no need to expect much punishment from the offender.

That's how this world is.

It's just that they even planned to take the risk of forcibly kidnapping their own pie... Nagisa Aragaki regretted a little that she didn't let Miyuki Kobayashi help dispose of them.

The three views before the crossing that I still retain look like in today's chaotic society... It seems a bit out of place.

But some things need to change, and they don't happen overnight...
