Meanwhile, Agent K was also sizing up the young man in front of him. He knew that someone who could become a candidate for Department X must at least have the ability to stand on their own.

After forcing a stiff smile to express friendliness, Agent K turned his gaze back to his new partner with a blank expression.

Compared to Mike, Agent J, who was already smug without even knowing what was going on, was very much in line with his rookie status.

Just as Agent J was boasting, Mr. Z brought over Niddy, who had changed into a black casual suit.

"Alright, the person I'm waiting for has arrived. I should go back and prepare for the mission." Mike waved goodbye to Agent J, saying, "Well then, see you next time!"

After watching Mike and Nydy leave, Agent J unusually fell silent.

"What's wrong with you?" Agent K was a little unaccustomed to seeing his new partner's "reclusive" appearance.

"This isn't fair. Why is the athletic guy's partner a young and beautiful woman, while I have to work with an old lady..." Agent J seemed to be filled with resentment as he complained.

Although Nidi has a "cold" aura, with her slender figure and delicate features, she is undoubtedly a great beauty.

Even the "dark aura" she exudes gives her a unique charm.

"Old man?" Even someone as rigid as Agent K couldn't help but twitch his lips after understanding his partner's thoughts.

He was beginning to regret his previous actions of "caring" about his new partner.

Meanwhile, after leaving the Men in Black headquarters, Mike parked his red Ferrari in the desolate outskirts of Sixth Avenue.

Nydy, who was driving a supercar provided by the Men in Black organization, was also forced to stop on the side of the road.

This woman was still too dangerous for Peggy and the others, so Mike needed to test her further before taking her back to the villa.

Because of Nydy's special circumstances, Ms. O specifically asked Mike to look after the girl before they parted ways.

Ms. O also stated that if Nidi displays a "dangerous" side during their subsequent collaboration, Mike could choose to return her at any time.

Mike, holding the red remote control, got out of the sports car and saw that Nydy was still sitting in the supercar with her eyes fixed on the road, showing no intention of getting out.

After leaving the Men in Black headquarters, the woman's behavior was surprisingly "mild".

This is not okay...

Mike walked up to the black Ford vintage car, knocked on the window, and confessed, "You guessed right, your best friend Jennifer, I did indeed plot to kill her..."

"So, are you going to avenge her?"

Mike was certain that when he pushed Jennifer into the abyss at the Minnesota demon altar, there was no one else around.

Therefore, Nidi's hatred for him was mostly based on speculation.

Mike's decision to reveal the truth now is more about giving the other side a reason to take action.

Sure enough, after hearing the truth, Nidi showed signs of "darkening," and a red light flashed in her eyes.

"That's it, hurry up and get started!"

Faced with the girl's "malice," Mike, holding the remote control, smiled slightly.

In this situation, Mike is more like a devil tempting ordinary people to make mistakes.

However, he seemed to have underestimated the girl's patience.

Just a moment ago, Nidi was tense and in a fighting stance, but after glaring at Mike for a few moments, she suddenly turned back to look straight ahead.

It was as if nothing had happened.

"Tch~" Mike shook his head in disappointment after his scheme failed, and warned, "You can follow me, but remember to behave yourself. If I find out you've done anything out of line, I will not hesitate to send you to meet your best friend."

Ignoring the girl's reaction, Mike turned and got back into the Ferrari.

After he left, Niddy, who was in the old Ford behind, saw her current appearance in the rearview mirror and immediately showed a look of disgust on her face.

Actually, two years ago at Minnesota Academy, it was Nidi who was the first to fall for Mike.

It was only because of the girl's shyness that her best friend Jennifer took advantage of the situation.

If things had gone as planned, this could very well have been another melodramatic love triangle. But the demonic incident changed everything.

……

Now that Nedy is gradually losing her human emotions, she doesn't even know how she feels about Mike.

The other person killed my best friend; there must be hatred involved...

But when someone she once liked reappears in front of her, Nidy has a strange feeling...

Like? Hate? Perhaps both!

Chapter 354 In Action

Inside the luxurious villa, when they saw Mike bring back another girl, Lina and the others froze for a moment.

However, having witnessed Mike's womanizing ways, they quickly adjusted their mood.

"Mike, won't you introduce him to us?" Lina asked, giving Mike a way out.

“Nidi, now you’re my… ‘colleague’.” Mike was observing Nedy’s reaction as he introduced her.

Mike would not hesitate to "subdue" her if she showed any unusual behavior.

Surprisingly, Nidy's gaze was cold when she looked at Mike, but she remained calm when facing the other girls in the villa.

While his aloof attitude wasn't exactly friendly, it didn't show any malice either.

"So your name is Nidi, you look really cool~" Lina stepped forward and greeted Nidi.

With her gothic dark style and aloof demeanor, Nidyl is indeed very cool to girls like Lina who have never seen the world.

Because of Mike's connection, the girls, who had some misunderstandings, were "friendly" towards Nidi.

“By the way, my name is Lina. The one over there in the maid outfit is Carly, and the one next to her is Jesse… We’ll be friends from now on.” Later, Lina even tried to help Nidy integrate into the “group.”

This harmonious scene was not what Mike wanted to see.

He had decided to find an opportunity later to reveal some information about Nidi to Lina and the others, at least to make them more wary of others.

"Alright, Lina~" Mike called out to the enthusiastic girl, then turned to the maid and said, "Carly, go downstairs and prepare a room for Nidi in a bit..."

"And Jesse and Collins, you'll be moving to the third floor from now on."

Seeing Mike's serious expression, Lina and the other girls realized that Mike's relationship with his female colleague didn't seem as "intimate" as they had imagined.

After dinner.

After personally escorting Needy downstairs, Mike returned to the third-floor living room and explained Needy's situation to the girls:

Emotional deprivation, violent tendencies...

Finally, Mike reminded the girls never to be alone with Nidi under any circumstances.

Next, to celebrate Jesse and Collins moving into the third floor, Mike rewarded them handsomely, and also brought Lina and the maid along.

The battle lasted for more than two hours. Afterwards, Mike, who had washed up, pushed open Peggy's door.

The small room was filled with professional books from various disciplines, in addition to plush toys.

At this moment, the little girl is wearing huge headphones and hunched over the computer, as if she is studying.

When Mike burst in, Peggy was startled at first. Then, seeing that he was wearing a t-shirt, the little girl seemed to misunderstand something.

Unconsciously, she tightened her legs under the desk, a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

"Did I disturb your studies?" Looking at the girl's flushed face, Mike said awkwardly, "I'd like to ask you to help me look up some information..."

Yes, besides the troublesome Nedy, Mike is preparing to recruit a few reliable members for his X Team.

Because of his unique characteristics, Mike had originally considered recruiting Scott, a werewolf currently studying at Columbia University, and Mark, who possessed the ability to regain his youth.

Just thinking about the two of them, one is still a child, and the other is an ordinary person who has returned to youth.

Mike quickly dismissed the idea.

After all, dealing with professional assassin organizations still requires some professional "talents".

“John Wick, a dog lover; Liam Neeson, a retired office worker; Arthur, a mechanic; Frank Martin, a courier…” Mike rattled off a list of names.

These people all have one thing in common: they are all "ruthless" and perfectly fit the recruitment requirements of Team X.

On the other side, little Peggy, in order to facilitate her studies, taught herself some computer skills, including firewall hacking techniques.

The little girl was initially a bit dizzy from smelling Mike's pleasant scent as he approached.

But soon, after seeing the information displayed on the computer, Peggy's mind cleared up.

After contacting the strange woman who moved in on the first floor, Peggy realized that the job Mike applied for was not so simple.

“These people don’t look like good people. Why are you looking for them?” Peggy asked tentatively.

“I have something I’d like to discuss with them…” Mike explained, noticing the worry in the girl’s eyes, and then reassured her, “Don’t worry, my job is very safe. Besides, I’m not as ‘fragile’ as I look.”

As he spoke, he even smiled and made a bodybuilding gesture to show that he was very strong.

Before long, the little girl's attention was diverted.

Then, looking at the information he needed on the computer, Mike chose John Wick, a dog lover, from among this group of "outlaws".

Compared to others, Wick, who has just been removed from the New York Hotel, is currently unemployed, his wife is still alive, and his dog is still around.

Someone like him is easily manipulated.

"Alright, you should go to sleep early too! Staying up all night studying all the time might stunt your growth~" After memorizing the information on the computer, Mike reached out and ruffled Peggy's hair before leaving her room.

"What the heck~" Peggy protested, feeling disgruntled at being treated like a child again.

After everyone left, the little girl stood up insecurely and gestured to show her height:

At 1.65 meters tall, that's not short at all!

It was only by chance that Peggy noticed her still-developing buds that she realized what the problem was.

The next day at noon, Mike, who had specially dressed in a Men in Black suit, got into the passenger seat of Nydy's car and headed towards the Bronx.

The Bronx is part of Apple City and is one of the three poorest neighborhoods.

The information indicates that the hitman who was dismissed from the New York Hotel is now living in seclusion there with his Japanese wife.

The old Ford drove through the dirty, chaotic main streets of the Bronx, filled with homeless people, and then headed to a more remote suburb.

Finally, the supercar stopped in front of a detached cabin.

At that moment, John Wick was sunbathing in the yard with his wife, who was in a wheelchair, and a beagle was playing happily at their feet.

If we disregard Zhou Wei's surroundings, this scene is quite heartwarming.

"Who are you looking for?" John Wick asked as he approached the newcomers, subtly shielding his wife behind him.

His killer instincts kicked in, and he sensed danger emanating from Mike and his companion.

“John Wick?” Mike sized up the man in front of him.

Perhaps because he hadn't yet experienced the pain of losing his wife and his dog, the man before me wasn't as dejected as I had imagined.

Although he still had long hair and looked somewhat unkempt, his sharp eyes couldn't lie.

This is a ferocious wolf.

Across from him, the man whose identity had been revealed immediately tensed up, as if he might suddenly attack and hurt someone at any moment.

“We mean no harm. In fact, I have some business to discuss with you…” After expressing goodwill, Mike asked, “Are you sure we want to talk here?”

John, who had lived a normal life for a while, had decided to no longer get involved in matters of the "underworld".

Mike and his companion didn't look like ordinary people at all. Contacting them meant trouble.

However, considering his wife's illness and the large sums of money needed for treatment, John thought for a moment and said, "Come with me."

Then, he pushed his wife in her wheelchair and led Mike into the cabin.

Chapter 355 League of Assassins

The cabin looked just as simple as the outside, with many pieces of furniture that were crudely made, clearly the work of the former assassin himself.

However, the few potted flowers on the windowsill and the exquisite handmade ornaments that can be seen everywhere in the house give this humble little wooden house a sense of life.

Just as Mike was looking around, John, who had sent his wife to the next room, came out again.

"What do you want?" John, whose lower back was bulging, stared at Mike and asked bluntly.
