Chapter 11 Meeting with Mingmei
Chapter 11 Meeting with Mingmei

I walked quickly to the cafeteria. I found Gin and Vodka sitting opposite him in a row of leather chairs on the far right side of the cafeteria. I walked to Vodka's side and looked at Gin with an embarrassed smile. "Sorry Uncle Gin. I'm late."

Gin didn't say anything. Because Vodka was there, he didn't need to give any orders. He just sat on the chair and drank a glass of gin.

"Number 7. This is where only the top killers in the organization can sit. Your dining area is over there." Vodka said to me coldly.

"Okay. I understand. I just came here to ask Uncle Gin some questions." I smiled with my little white teeth bared.

Gin glanced at me calmly, then gave Vodka a look. Vodka understood and moved inside, giving me a seat.

I sat across from Gin, put away my usual smile, and asked in a serious tone, "Uncle Gin, I want to ask how I can get my own code name?"

"Task."

Gin's answer was very concise. Not only was it concise, but it was also somewhat unexpected. I thought Gin would not answer my question. After all, I was a newcomer.

"Mission?" I asked doubtfully.

But this time Gin ignored me. He just drank his wine quietly. I understood and turned my gaze to Vodka who was sitting next to me. Sure enough, Vodka answered my question.

"Listen, No. 7. If you want to get your own code name, all you have to do is complete the missions assigned to you by the organization. As long as you successfully complete 30 missions alone, you will get your code name."

"So when can I do the mission?"

"Wait until you complete your eight-year training."

"Eight years?" I was a little dissatisfied. In eight years, I will be 15 years old. That's too long. I thought to myself. (Because I heard from Yeyue that I came here six years ago, and this year has passed quickly. So I determined that my current age is 7 years old.)
"As long as your grades are good, you can shorten your study time and get a code name earlier. But I can tell you. The youngest code name holder in the organization is 16 years old. Even if it takes eight years. You can break this record at your age. Although we don't know how old you are, judging from your physical condition, you are no more than seven years old." Vodka smiled coldly.

"16 years old? But I just saw a little girl who was about my age. She also has a code name." I thought about Shirley's age and asked in confusion.

"There are indeed such people. This is the second way to get a code name that I will tell you about next." Vodka took a sip of the wine in the glass and looked in Gin's direction. After Gin agreed with her eyes, he continued to explain to me.

"The second way to get a code name is to kill someone who already has one." Vodka paused and continued, "There are three different code names in the organization. The first is the kind that children can get. It is a code with black letters on a white background. Generally, people who have such code names either have family members who are core members of the organization, or they are scientific researchers of the organization. However, people with such code names cannot be touched, including their assistants. Otherwise, you will be hunted down by the organization."

"The other type is black with white letters. The owners of such code names are all killers in the organization. Each of them has one to three peripheral members as their subordinates. If you want to get a code name, you can challenge them. As long as you have the ability to kill them, you can replace their code name. Temporary members cannot carry weapons and can only challenge them with bare hands. But I have to remind you in advance that all people with code names have their own guns. So don't challenge them so casually. Otherwise you will die ugly. In the organization, the genuine killer has the right to kill the temporary members who challenge him." Vodka reminded me with a sneer.

"There is one last type, black background with gold letters. They are the organization's gold medal killers and core members. Big Brother is such a code name." After saying this, Vodka looked at Gin's expression. After making sure that he was not angry, he continued.

"As gold medal killers, they have the right to dominate those ordinary killers. Each gold medal killer can have more than ten subordinates of his own. Of course, this depends on the personal preferences of the gold medal killers. At the same time, the gold medal killers hold the power of life and death over everyone. As long as there is a reasonable reason, the gold medal killers can execute everyone. Of course, they have to report to their superiors afterwards. However, for peripheral members, they can be dealt with directly without reporting."

After hearing this, I became interested and asked Vodka, "How can I become a gold medal killer? Do I have to kill him to replace him?"

“不。金牌杀手是不可被挑战的。先不说能否挑战。光是他们的实力你就不要对他们有想法了。想成为金牌杀手的唯一手段就是做任务。而且要完成300次任务以上同时保证完成率达到98%才能成为金牌杀手。目前组织里的金牌杀手有27人。在圆顶咖啡屋那里有所有人的任务榜单完成100次任务便可榜上有名。顺便告诉你。现在榜单的前十名的任务率都是100%。他们的排名不分先后。只是按照加入组织的时间来定的。”

"Oh, I see. Thank you, Uncle Vodka." I thought about it, bared my little white teeth again, smiled at Vodka, and left my seat, walking towards the corridor.

"Number 7. Over where you eat." Vodka reminded.

"I know." I stood still and lowered my head. My bangs blocked my view and made it difficult to see my expression. "I have to go get my code name first. Then I'll go eat."

"Didn't you hear what I just said?" Vodka yelled angrily. "All genuine assassins are equipped with guns. You are just a newcomer and have not been trained. Don't be so arrogant and dream of getting a code name now." I ignored Vodka and continued to walk forward. At the moment when I passed by Gin, Gin spoke.

"Kid." Gin lit a cigar.

"Whose name did you fancy?"

I smiled evilly. My eyes were full of bloodlust. "IceWine." I left without looking back.

"Brother. Number 7..." Vodka asked with some confusion.

"Notify the Human Resources Department." Gin raised his glass and said calmly, "Tell them that starting today, No. 7 will replace IceWine. You will go and help No. 7 deal with IceWine's body."

"Brother...you mean..."

"Ah. That brat." Gin's eyes also became bloodthirsty. "I'm a little reluctant to give him to that woman." Gin's eyes were full of blood and excitement. Vodka saw that his elder brother, who was always known for his calmness and cruelty, was so excited that even his hand holding the wine glass was shaking a little.

"I understand, big brother. I'll do it right away." Vodka sat up from the sofa and took out his phone. He called the human resources department while walking towards the right corridor.

Pull the camera towards me.

After coming out of the cafeteria, I walked into the corridor on the right. I came to the place where I had just met Shirley. I found the room of the young man in black. Just as I was about to reach out and knock on the door, a sweet voice appeared behind me.

"Excuse me. Are you No. 7?" "Hmm?" I turned around and looked at the person who was speaking. She was a girl about or years old with long black hair and a light green dress. The room she came out of was Shirley's room. So this person must be Shirley's sister. Miyano Akemi.

"I'm number 7. May I ask who you are?" Although I knew she was Mingmei, I still wanted to ask. After all, she didn't know me.

"Ah. Let me introduce myself. My name is Miyano Akemi, and I'm my sister's assistant. I live next to this room." Akemi bowed slightly to me and pointed to the room next to Shirley.

"Sister?" I continued to ask knowingly.

"Yes. The girl you just saved is my sister. Her name is Miyano Shiho. But please call her by her code name Shirley." Mingmei said to me with a smile.

"So, what's your code name?" I continued to ask. In fact, in my previous life, I always wanted to know Mingmei's code name. Now I finally have the chance to ask her.

"Haha. Sorry. I don't have a code name." Her answer surprised me. "Although I am Shiho's older sister, I am not as talented or smart as her genius sister, so I am just a peripheral member of the organization. It was her sister's request that I was transferred here to be her assistant."

"I see.. Is your sister Shiho. Oh no. Shirley already a researcher in the organization at such a young age?"

"No. It's our parents. They are researchers in the organization. That's why my sister and I are here." Mingmei explained to me.

"Miyano Atsushi and Miyano Elena?" I muttered softly.

"Ah? You know my parents?" Mingmei suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at me in surprise.

"Hmm? Ah. I don't know them. I just heard of them. Sorry." I smiled guiltily. I was too concerned about the sisters. I accidentally said their parents' names. I was so careless.

"I see. I am sorry for my impoliteness." Mingmei's eyes dimmed. She bowed slightly to me and said, "I came to see you to thank you on behalf of my sister."

"Huh?" This time I really didn't understand.

"It's like this. Ever since my sister and I moved here, the guy named Frost Wine who lives across the street has always bullied my sister. Because the organization has a rule that researchers cannot be killed. But if it's just bullying, no one in the organization will care. So my sister is always bullied by that guy. This time, because I went to the organization's information room to borrow books for my sister, I gave that guy another opportunity to bully my sister. If it weren't for you, Shiho would have been seriously injured again." Mingmei frowned.

"You mean again? Does that mean Shirley was seriously injured before?" I heard the news that Shirley was injured. My heart suddenly trembled.

"Yes. The worst time was when that guy broke Shiho's arm. But that time also violated the authority of the organization's superiors. So since then, that guy has restrained himself a little. But there are still some bruises on my sister's body. I think it was all done by him." Mingmei became more and more angry. "But we can't do anything about it. We can only stay away from him. If you hadn't appeared this time, my sister..." Mingmei's eyes flashed with moisture.

"Um. If it's convenient, can you let me see Shirley?" I tried to calm down the anger in my heart. I raised my head and smiled faintly at Mingmei.

"Yeah. Of course." Akemi turned around and looked at her door. "Shiho. Come out."

After hearing what Mingmei said, Shiho's small figure appeared behind the gate and walked towards us slowly. It turned out that this girl had been eavesdropping on the conversation between Mingmei and me.

"Can I see your hand?" I stood in front of Shirley and asked softly.

"Hmm? Hmm." Shirley was a little confused by my question, but she still reached out her hand to me.

I gently held this boneless little hand. An incomparable feeling of happiness came over me. (YE~~ I finally held Ai's hand~~~~ Uh. Ahem. Back to the topic.)
Holding Shirley's hand, I pulled up her sleeves. As expected, there were many bruises of varying sizes on Shirley's arms.

"Hiss." Shirley frowned.

"Oh, sorry. Did I hurt you?" I asked worriedly.

"No. It's okay." Shirley said to me lightly.

I gently put down Shirley's hand and turned to look at Mingmei.

"Sister Mingmei. Can I call you that?" I smiled.

"Hmm? Yeah. Of course."

"Hehe. Well, please take Shirley back to the room. I'll come to see you later." I smiled at Mingmei with my little white teeth bared.

"Yeah. Okay. But you..."

"Yeah. It's okay. I just want to take care of some minor problems."

"Little trouble?"

"Ah." I knocked on the door of the room opposite Shirley's room where the guy called Frostwine lived.

When Mingmei saw me move, she seemed to understand what I meant. She pulled Xiao Zhibao back to her room. When she closed the door, she looked at me with a worried look. But I had my back to them, so I didn't see the worry in Mingmei's eyes.
