Witch Special

Hmm...it seems Buffon No. 2 still needs to be released, and the sooner the better. Although Lin Zhenxi has only been back for a day, there's no need to worry about being sent out again for the time being, but who knows how good Buffon No. 2's learning ability is. Naturally, the longer he learns, the better.

Very good. I will rent an empty room later, connect it to the Heart of the Rising Sun through an Internet cable, and then use it as a study room for Buffon No. 2.

Furthermore, Lin Zhenxi did need to establish a good relationship with Buffon No. 2. After all, he wasn't just a robot, but a self-aware mechanical lifeform. Although Buffon No. 2 had already acknowledged Lin Zhenxi as its master, much like Buffon did with Luke, he was still a "human," and it was impossible to simply define their relationship as belonging.

Anyway, Lin Zhenxi intends to take Buffon No. 2 seriously. Apart from Black Cat, he is the second official subordinate following Lin Zhenxi, a real right-hand man. Of course, Lin Zhenxi must stimulate the subjective initiative of Buffon No. 2 to the maximum extent and let her take on more things for herself.

Instead of being like the black cat curled up into a black cat ball on the table, which can only provide emotional value to Lin Zhenxi, Lin Zhenxi has to serve her.

Of course, the importance of Black Cat to Hayashi Maki is self-evident. Before obtaining the Witch Book, Hayashi Maki had always been alone in the other world. In the dead of night, when she looked up at the sky that was completely different from her hometown, Hayashi Maki would always feel a strong sense of unease and panic. But after she got Black Cat, she no longer felt that uneasy feeling.

The company of Black Cat made Lin Zhenxi feel no longer lonely, and her presence played a vital role in Lin Zhenxi's mental stability.

As for the Heart of the Rising Sun? That doesn't count. While it possesses a virtual personality, it's still essentially an intelligent AI. Furthermore, Hayashi Zhenxi had removed its emotional module, retaining only the information exchange function. Not even a voice function was installed. Such a large piece of metal is, at best, a tool, clearly not a human.

After reserving a 100-square-meter empty room through his personal terminal, Lin Zhenxi fiddled with the terminal and switched to the "company" armory interface. The second thing to do, of course, was to collect the new weapons.

Whether it is the new weapons that Lin Zhenxi needs to choose after being promoted to Class B, or the D-class weapon space cubes that she spent most of her fortune to buy, she needs to go to the armory to collect them.

However, the functionality of B-level weapons is more complex, and their specific functions cannot be determined by simply reading the text description, so Lin Zhenxi must go to the armory to try out the functions of those weapons in person before making a decision.

What she was doing now was to make an appointment to go to the armory to pick up the space cube. After all, weapons had to be picked up at the armory and integrated on the spot. It was impossible for them to be delivered to her door like other things.

The setting of "company" is most likely to prevent some special envoys from using improper means to seize the weapons of other special envoys. After all, there are special envoys who form gangs and engage in bullying and oppression, but Lin Zhenxi is not involved.

Lin Zhenxi had been a veteran for over a decade. In the Special Correspondent field, the older you are, the stronger you are. After all, it takes experience to build up your skills, so no one dared to bother Lin Zhenxi. However, the same couldn't be said for the newer Special Correspondents. While Lin Zhenxi hadn't encountered any of this, she had heard of the messy affairs of her juniors.

Armaments are the foundation of a special envoy's life. The first step for a special envoy to move from ordinary to extraordinary is to receive their own weapons from the "company".

With that in mind, it's no surprise that the company has a rule prohibiting weapons from being taken from the armory. The company doesn't care about other things; if you're cowardly and get bullied, that's your own bad luck and what you deserve. But weapons are a must-have for every special agent. The company will ensure that every special agent has their own weapons. At least this is a guarantee.

After completing the time reservation at the armory, Lin Zhenxi only had one thing left to do.

Those are her eyes.

In the previous world, while sleeping beside the Dimensional Sea, Lin Zhenxi's consciousness once fell deeply into a dream. In that dream, she discovered a white lighthouse hidden deep within the Dimensional Sea. On top of that lighthouse, which emitted a red beam of light into the depths of the Dimensional Sea, she discovered a blue orb.

She removed the orb and turned it to see the scene inside. When she saw the mysterious patterns inside the orb, her dream collapsed, and those mysterious patterns moved from the orb to her eyes, making her pupils appear a deep blue even in normal state.

The changes to his eyes provide Lin Zhenxi with improved vision, even enhancing his original Mystic Eye ability, the "Mystic Eye that Traces Cause and Effect," allowing him to see more causal lines. Furthermore, once Lin Zhenxi uses the "Mage" class template to become a "Dimension Master," these new eyes can also work in conjunction with the "Dimension Master" power, generating dimensional runes within them, allowing Lin Zhenxi to see through the dimensional sea, ignoring spatial distances and making the distance seem as if it were a world away.

But Lin Zhenxi still had no idea what that orb was. Although, from the moment on, fusing it would only benefit her, what if? Previously, things of unknown origin had no place in the other world, so she'd just accept them. But now that Lin Zhenxi was back, she definitely wanted to have her eyes carefully examined to see what had merged with them.

To get her eyes checked, she naturally had to go to a medical institution. Lin Zhenxi had two options: one was the placement center run by her best friend Yan Qing, and the other was the medical center run by Ms. Liz Nightingale, with whom she had already had dealings.

In fact, there are several medical-related departments within the "company", such as the "Sanatorium", "Medical Research and Development Center", and even a "Human Development Testing Department", but Lin Zhenxi would not consider the latter. After all, she is not familiar with those places. Although the other party will definitely accept the application if she goes through the formal process, when it comes to examinations of important organs such as the eyes, Lin Zhenxi of course prefers to hand it over to people she trusts.

So there is actually no need to worry about this issue. Although the medical facilities at Yan Qing's resettlement center are not as good as those at Liz Nightingale's medical center, it has advanced equipment for detecting difficult and complicated diseases that is at least on par with other medical institutions in the "company".

After all, the resettlement center dealt with aliens from various otherworlds, as well as special envoys returning from them. Each otherworld had different conditions, and who knew what those alien visitors might bring with them. To ensure they could detect these unknown things, the resettlement center's testing equipment had to be state-of-the-art.

Okay, Yan Qing, let’s make an appointment.

There was no need to go through the company's procedures to contact Yan Qing. Lin Zhenxi directly found Yan Qing's name on the social software and sent her a window shake.

A few seconds later, Yan Qing replied again.

【Welcome home～～What kind of world did you go to this time? 】

[Yeah, I just got back yesterday. This time, the experience was relatively simple, and the commission was completed smoothly. By the way, Yan Miao, I'm now a B-level special agent, I've been promoted!]

It was useless for Lin Zhenxi to tell her family about her promotion. After all, her family didn't understand the company's career system and would probably just be happy for her but wouldn't understand the meaning behind it.

But Yan Qing was also a "company" employee. Although Lin Zhenxi didn't know what the career advancement system was like there, there should be something like job levels. If he explained this to Yan Qing, she would understand.

[Congratulations! Treat me!] This was followed by a series of flower-scattering emojis. If you look closely, you can see that the pixelated figure is actually a Q version of Yan Qing herself.

[Hmm, let's make an appointment in the next few days. Should Xinju come downstairs? Or should we go somewhere else?]

There's nothing wrong with Xinju Xialou, and the meals Liu Angxing makes are Lin Zhenxi's top pick. But you can't always fleece the sheep, and since they've already been to Xinju Xialou once, it might be time to try a different place this time.

Even though Liu Angxing would definitely receive them, after all, Lin Zhenxi was the big moneymaker behind Xinju's downfall, but Lin Zhenxi didn't plan to only eat at Liu Angxing's restaurant in the future, as that would be boring.

Lin Zhenxi's previous hobby was to go to different gourmet restaurants and try their specialties. She couldn't just give up those hidden gems hidden in the streets and alleys just because Liu Angxing's food was delicious. This was one of her few hobbies, and now that she had time, she planned to pick it up again.

"Let's go to another restaurant. It's not nice to bother Chef Liu all the time. If Yan Miao wants to eat something, I'll have Chef Liu make it and bring it to us."

As long as Lin Zhenxi didn't go, Liu Angxing and Zhou Meili wouldn't need to personally receive him, so it would be much easier to ask Liu Angxing to make something. With Liu Angxing's personality that day, he wanted to spend 24 hours in the kitchen, so asking him to help out while he was thinking about new dishes and improving his cooking skills was not a big deal.

[Well, that's settled, meow.] Ah, she remembered her habit of deliberately acting cute again.

[By the way, Yan Miao, let's not talk about eating for now. I need to trouble you with something.]

After saying that, Lin Zhenxi told Yan Qing that he wanted to have his eyes checked.

Yan Qing asked Lin Zhenxi to go over now.
