Chapter 9: Joining the Organization
Chapter 9: Joining the Organization
In about a week, my wounds were completely healed. I have to say that the medical level of this black organization is really high. The wound that should have taken about a month to heal healed in just a week, and there is not even a scar. It is said that military technology is ten years ahead of reality, and it seems to be the same here.
"Hey. No. 7. You're going back for training tomorrow, right?" Jingliu said, looking at my medical records.
"Ah. I'll be back tomorrow. Someone should come to inform me today, right?" I sat on a chair by the window, looking out at the scenery in the park.
"Well. We will be separated soon..." There was a hint of reluctance in Jingliu's eyes.
"Don't worry, Sister Jingliu. We will meet again soon." I smiled at her, showing my little white teeth.
"Hmm? Haha. Although I want to, too. But I don't want you to get hurt even more." Jingliu touched my head and said with relief.
"I said... I didn't intend to get hurt." I squinted my eyes and looked at her. "What I meant was, I will get a code name as soon as possible, and then arrange you to be by my side. In this way, won't we be able to meet soon?" Although we have very little time together, I don't know why, after only a few months of contact, Jingliu would say those words to me. Similarly, I don't know why, I just really want to help her get rid of Gin's bondage.
"Number 7...you..." After hearing what I said, Jingliu's gentle eyes became a little moist. I guess she never thought that the few half-joking words she said that day would be remembered by me.
"Don't worry. I still have one day before I leave. Don't be too sad. Otherwise, how am I going to get through today?" I raised my hand and wiped away the tears from her eyes.
"Haha. That's true." Jingliu regained her usual smile. "Then, you rest here. I'll get you something to eat." She raised her foot and was about to walk out. But before she took two steps, the door of the medical room was opened. The person who came in was Gin.
"Ah. Brother Gin." Jingliu lowered her head hastily. She looked very respectful. From behind, I could see that her body was trembling slightly.
Gin glanced at Jingliu with contempt. Then he turned his eyes to me. After feeling his gaze, I stood up. Just like last time, I looked at him again.
a long time.
"Kid. Your eyes have become sharper than the last time we met." Gin sneered.
"Really? Hehe. Thank you Uncle Gin for the compliment." I stopped looking at Gin and said with a grin, showing my little white teeth.
"White River."
"Ah. Yes. What do you want, Brother Gin?"
"Fix this kid's hair. Now that he has joined the organization, he can't be my subordinate if he has no image."
"Yes, I understand." Jingliu lowered his head again and said respectfully.
"Hey, kid."
"Huh? What's up Uncle Gin?"
"That woman Vermouth has asked me for someone. Perform well. Let me see what that woman sees in you." After saying that, Gin sneered and walked out of the door.
"Hu..." After Gin left, Jingliu took a deep breath and collapsed to the ground.
"Are you okay, Sister Jingliu?" I walked to Jingliu's side, held her arm and asked.
"Ah. Yeah. It's okay." Jingliu's face was a little pale. "Number 7, you really surprised me. You are the first person I have seen who dares to look Gin in the eye, and you are so young..."
"Haha, it's okay. I don't think Uncle Gin's gaze is that scary." I put my hands behind my head and said with a smile. Of course I'm not scared. Although my body is still a child now. But no matter what, I was also a killer in my previous life. I once had that kind of gaze. That kind of momentum. Even more than that. It's just that I'm just a child now and I can't do it.
"Well, I'll get you something to eat. And then I'll get your hair cut."
"Yes. Thank you~ Sister Jingliu." I scratched my hair which hadn't been cut for more than three months and felt a little embarrassed. I haven't had my hair cut since the first day I came here. Because I was always injured. After the injury, I took the test again. Although I was injured in the head when I came in again. But as I said before, the medical equipment here is very advanced.
. . . . . .
After more than an hour of hard work, Sister Jingliu looked at me in the mirror with satisfaction.
"Hehe. How about it. Pretty handsome, right~" Jingliu said with a smile.
"Ah. Not bad." I looked at myself in the mirror. My tender face was mature, my lavender eyes looked very energetic, and I had some black hair that was split 3:7. The hair on the left was naturally hanging down by my ear. The hair on the right was slightly longer, and the delicate hair extended outward. The long side bangs just covered my right eye. The hair at the back of my head covered my slender neck. It made people feel attracted. (Except for the hair color, please refer to Sword Emperor Levi.)
"Tsk... What do you mean it's not bad? I have a certificate from a hair stylist, sister." Jingliu looked at me angrily.
"Huh? Is there anyone else in the organization learning this?" I asked puzzledly.
"Because I'm just an outsider." Jingliu said with some embarrassment. "But don't underestimate me. Even though it's just some trivial things, I've studied them seriously."
"Yes, yes. Sister Jingliu is amazing..." I squinted my eyes and looked at her. "But this hairstyle is really beautiful. Thank you, Sister Jingliu."
"Hehe, as long as you like it. Well, today is your last night here. Do you want your sister to hold you to sleep~~" Jingliu winked at me mischievously.
"Um... no. Not good." My cheeks turned red. I didn't dare to look her in the face.
"Haha. I just like you like this. So cute." Jingliu reached out and pinched my cheeks. While laughing, he ignored my half-moon eyes. I found that all women and girls older than me like to pinch my cheeks. Am I really that cute?
That's how it was. The day passed by in our playfulness. (Hmm? You asked me if I slept with Jingliu. Um, well, I admit it. Jingliu held me in her arms that night. As a child, I was held in her arms like a doll. To be honest, I was quite soft. Ah, don't use a brick. I was wrong...)

The next morning, before we had time to eat breakfast, the door of the medical room was opened. The person who came was Vodka, and he took me back. But this time I was not given sleeping pills. After all, I was already a member of the organization, so some road recognition was still necessary.
Along the way, I passed through many corridors. One after another. The entire corridor seemed to be made of steel. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought it was a huge basement. After passing through two more corridors, Vodka stopped in front of an iron door and threw me a card.
"Here is the room key. You live in the same room with No. 15, No. 21, and No. 39." Vodka said indifferently. Although his attitude was also cold, his cold aura was far inferior to Gin's. So he was destined to be just an assistant. "Rest in the room first. Someone will lead the way for you later." After that, Vodka turned around and left without caring whether I understood or not.
Shrugging helplessly, I used the room card to open the door and walked in.
"Hello. Newcomer. Tell me your code name." A boy with short black hair spoke with contempt as I walked into the room.
Brush. The door behind me closed. The room was still bright. An incandescent lamp hung from the ceiling. In addition to two bunk beds, there was only a table, four cups, and a water dispenser.
"Hey. I'm asking you a question. Tell me your code name!" The contemptuous voice sounded again. I looked at him. He was a boy who looked to be about ten years old. He was wearing a red long-sleeved shirt and a bow tie. He must have been brought here by a brainwashed nobleman.
"Number 7." I answered coldly. Ignoring his gaze, I turned my sight to the other bed. Sitting on the other bed was a girl who also looked to be in her teens. She was wearing a yellow academic gown, a large beret on her head, blue round-framed glasses, and her long blond hair was tied into two ponytails and hung on her shoulders. Judging from her appearance, she should be from an aristocratic school abroad, but I saw a trace of fear on her face. Probably because she had just passed that bloody test.
"Huh? Are you the best one?" The boy's words attracted me.
"The best?" I was a little confused.
"What? Don't you know? According to the code name, they divide every ten people into a group. You are No. 7, which proves that you are the best of the group." The boy continued. "Let me introduce myself. I am No. 21. The girl is No. 39. The two of us were just selected. As for No. 15, she should be here soon, wait. But let me make it clear first. Just because you are the best does not mean I have to listen to you. Do you understand?"
I ignored him. After walking around the room, I lay down on the top bunk on the left bed and looked at the ceiling.
"Hey! I'm talking to you. Do you hear me?" The boy named No. 21 stood up and walked towards me with some dissatisfaction.
"Get lost!" I was a little annoyed by his noise. I looked at him coldly, unconsciously releasing my murderous intent.
"Uh..." The moment the child made eye contact with me, he seemed to be thrown into an ice cellar and couldn't move.
Seeing his horrified expression, I withdrew my killing intent disdainfully and continued to lie on the bed in a daze. The boy just stood there in a daze.
"Wuwuwu..." The blonde girl on the other bed was hugging her pillow and crying softly. Maybe she was frightened by my murderous aura, but I didn't bother to pay attention to her. My goal was to get the code name as soon as possible and find the Miyano sisters. Then I would find a way to rescue Shizuka. The rest was not important to me. From Gin's appearance, he was still very young, about 24 or 25 years old, so I inferred that he should not have entered the plot yet. In other words, the Miyano sisters should still be in the organization.
The three of us just sat there quietly. We spent the whole morning listening to the girl's crying. Near noon, the door was opened again. A girl with long purple hair, a black headband on her head, and a white gothic lolita dress with purple lace and black outer lining came in. Even her pupils were purple. Judging from her height, she should be about the same age as me. Needless to say, she is No. 15. When she came in, I saw a hint of coldness in her eyes. It seems that this child also came here after killing. Maybe when she passed the test, her heart had already turned cold. Or before she came into the organization, her heart had already turned cold. Following her in was a young man in black. I think he is here to lead the way for us.
"You guys. Come out. Next, I will take you to familiarize yourself with the environment here." The young man said bluntly.
Following his instructions, we walked out of the room and turned down the first corridor. We saw the first public facility. The cafeteria. Obviously, our room was on the left side of the cafeteria.
"This is where everyone eats. You can sit anywhere. But remember, if you see someone wearing black, you must be respectful. You could be killed if you're not careful." The young man said as he walked. We walked out of the cafeteria and entered the corridor on the right.
There are also many rooms in the corridor on the right. The corridor is like the main trunk of a tree. Some branches are the corridors of those rooms. From my perspective, each small corridor has four rooms.
"This is the dormitory for the official members of the organization. If there is no special reason, I suggest you not to come. No one will be responsible if you are killed." The young man looked at us with a little intimidation.
After walking out of the long corridor, we saw a metal elevator at a corner.
"You can take the elevator from here to three floors. The fighting arena on the second floor. The gun shooting range on the third floor. And the simulated sniper shooting range on the sixth floor underground. You don't have the right to have an elevator card at your current stage. You can only be taken there by your respective instructors." After speaking, the man in black continued walking.
Soon, we passed the elevator corridor and came to a public facility with a round roof. It looked like a cafe.
"This is a place for members with code names to rest and discuss tasks. Behind this ceiling is the concert hall. It is also a place for everyone to rest and learn music expertise. Under the concert hall is the computer room. There you will learn all kinds of knowledge." You don't need to know where to go. Of course, if you have some special outstanding features, the organization will naturally assign you there.
After that, the young man led us back to where we were at the elevator. He took out an elevator card from his pocket and swiped it on the card reader next to the elevator.
Ding Dong. The elevator opened. We walked in. When I got in, I realized that this elevator had doors on all four sides.
Soon we took the elevator to the sixth floor underground. But the young man did not let us get off the elevator. Instead, he explained to us in the elevator.
The elevator door opened. Rather than saying it was six floors underground, it was more like a huge underground space built with the height of six floors. There were four huge pillars supporting the entire space.
"This is the sniper simulation range. You will need it in the future." After a brief introduction, the young man closed the elevator door and pressed the button for the second floor.
There was another ding-dong sound. This time the elevator opened the doors on the left, right and back sides. "The left side is the unarmed combat training ground. The right side is the dagger combat training ground. The back is the combat training ground for other weapons of your choice. Generally, you will use the combat grounds on the left and right. If your grades are good and your instructor allows it, then you can go to the training ground at the back to choose your favorite weapon."
I didn't expect that this organization would have so many secrets and such a huge structure. I couldn't help but be shocked.
While I was thinking, the elevator had already reached the third floor. "Next is the third floor." The young man said. "On the left side of the third floor is the shooting range for pistols. On the right is the shooting range for submachine guns. And at the back is the training ground for throwing weapons." The young man said. We thought he would take us down. So we didn't move. We just watched quietly.
"Who is number 7?" the young man suddenly asked.
"Me." I looked at him expressionlessly.
"Go to the pistol range. Your instructor is waiting for you there." He made way.
"Oh." I answered simply.
"Similarly, No. 15, go to the submachine gun range on the right. No. 21 and No. 39, follow me to the second floor to find your instructor."
I was the first to walk out of the elevator. As I walked, I was still thinking, Who will be my mentor?
