People in Cyber, using skin to create legends

Molly stroked her chin, searching her mind for memories.

On the day of the time travel, those two damn thugs attacked too harshly and almost turned the original body's head into a paste. If Molly didn't have mutant abilities, I'm afraid that even if she could be rescued, she would have become an idiot who knew nothing.

And precisely because of this, Molly's memory is in a mess, and now she has to think for a long time before she knows anything.

It's the same now.

As for the reason for running away from home, Molly could only remember that her family seemed to dislike Molly's pursuit of music. Molly was originally rebellious, so she took all her pocket money and came to the city of chaos alone.

This reason sounds reasonable and perfectly fits the psychology of a teenage girl who acts impulsively.

But if that were the case, there would be no reason for the original body to have such strong hostility towards his father.

And... when looking through the memories of her original body, Molly had a very faint feeling that after seeing her father's birthday present, in addition to a little grievance and anger, there was also a trace of imperceptible fear.

This fear can be seen as the daughter's awe of her father, but is there another possibility?

Perhaps the original person discovered something, so he fled from home?

Judging from the insurance that the original body's father had arranged for her, the original body's family must have a lot of assets. Maybe it was a big family that could compete with big groups like the City of Chaos.

Since ancient times, large families have used every possible means to fight for assets.

Just like fighting for the throne, if you are not careful, you may be in danger of death.

It was probably because of this that the original body realized that someone wanted to harm her, so she traveled thousands of miles to the City of Chaos incognito.

"If that's the case, then it all makes sense."

Molly pondered.

It was precisely because the original identity was not simple, possibly involving family feuds or feuds between hostile forces, that he took advantage of the falling out with his father to quickly withdraw from the family and ran here to live a stable life.

Everything was fine until the day Molly traveled through time, when her original body was found and eventually died.

According to this logic, everything that has happened so far has a reasonable explanation.

Why did the original person end up dying miserably in an alley even though he had purchased such expensive insurance?

That's because the force targeting the original body is stronger. The person behind the scenes may be using hackers, power, or even spies planted in the insurance company to make them ignore Molly's existence.

In this case, it wouldn't be of much use even if Molly took out insurance.

After all, because of the rift between Molly and her father, she did not wear the monitoring bracelet specially given to her by the insurance company.

Originally, all this had happened naturally, and the original person had indeed died in the alley.

But the people behind the scenes did not expect that Molly would travel through time at this time and bring the original body back to life.

"No, that's not right... Mike, Black Hand, Skull... these guys had actually received the commission before this."

Molly guessed.

It wasn't until they discovered that their original bodies had come back to life that the Skeleton and Black Hand attacked Molly.

Rather, these were part of the plan to kill the original body. In order to ensure that everything went smoothly, the person behind the scenes made many backup plans. He believed that Molly, who was just an ordinary person with no one to protect her, would definitely die under this series of arrangements.

But that person didn't expect that Molly was not dead and resolved all these crises one by one.

"What would that person do if he found out that I'm not dead?"

Molly thought again.

Either he increased his efforts and hired stronger people to kill Molly, or he temporarily stopped his moves, planned secretly, and strived for the final killing blow.

Both are possible, and both mean that Molly's crisis has not been resolved.

"Is District 22 really safe..."

Molly began to think about it.

Mitarashi Muzi said that because she was in District 22 and Molly was her employee, Molly was safe in District 22.

There will be no problem as long as you don't leave District 22 easily.

But if the guy who targets Molly is so powerful that it is unimaginable, then can Muzi, who is just a middleman, really protect Molly?

Even if he can protect him, how much pressure will Muzi have to bear?

Molly always felt that she seemed to owe Muzi more and more favors, and she didn't know if she could repay him in the future.

Ding-dong-

While Molly was thinking seriously, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Molly's eyes focused, and she quickly put everything back in place. Then she went to the door and looked outside through the doorbell's surveillance camera.

Molly, who had just made some speculations, is now at a very sensitive psychological level. The slightest disturbance can easily cause Molly to have a stress response.

So, at this moment, Molly is already prepared. Once she finds out that the person outside the door is an enemy, she will open the door and attack without hesitation!

Thinking of this, Molly looked at the doorbell monitor.

then……

A young girl with short silver hair and light makeup appeared in Molly's sight.

"Girls?"

Molly narrowed her eyes slightly.

She did not let her guard down just because the other person was a girl. After all, Molly herself was a mercenary with beautiful looks and deadly weapons, and the girl outside might be the same.

Thinking of this, Molly looked at the girl in the surveillance screen.

The girl just stood in front of the door with her hands in front of her, holding a small white bag.

From this angle, Molly couldn't see what was in the bag, but judging by the girl's appearance, she didn't seem to be looking for trouble.

After thinking for a while, Molly answered the call outside the door and asked directly:

"Who are you? What's wrong?"

Chapter 30 Usami Airi

The sudden sound startled the girl with short silver hair.

She moved closer to the door and seemed to have found the location of the surveillance camera. She moved closer and whispered:

"Hello? I'm your new neighbor. My name is Usami Airi. I'm new here, so I wanted to make our acquaintance..."

Japanese?

Listening to the other party's fluent Japanese and the purpose of his visit, Molly relaxed a little and opened the door.

But having said that, Molly did not completely let her guard down.

She only opened the door a crack, but the protective lock on the door was not opened. The chain connecting the door to the wall next to the door frame made it impossible to put the body completely in.

Standing on this side of the gap, Molly faced the girl with short silver hair and said:

"There's no need to go to so much trouble. This is not Japan. Please take the gift back."

"Eh? What a cute girl... Um, where is your parents?"

The girl in front of him cried out in surprise when she saw Molly, and then asked softly.

Molly's mouth twitched, and a pound sign representing anger appeared above her head. She whispered:

"I'm the only one in my family! Also, don't judge a person's age by their appearance in this city!"

"Ah! I'm so... so sorry!!"

Seeing that Molly was indeed angry, the silver-haired girl apologized hurriedly, and then said:

"This is my first time here, and there are many things I don't understand. I'm very sorry for making you angry, so please accept this gift. I'll prepare an apology gift for you later..."

"No need! Don't bother me anymore! That's it!"

Molly said to the other party indifferently, and then closed the door without hesitation.

No matter what the purpose of this guy named Usami is, whether he really just moved into a new house and came to visit, or he has other purposes, Molly only needs to keep him out of the door to prevent all trouble!

Sometimes being indifferent to others may not be right, but it is indeed the safest approach.

Especially in this chaotic city.

Molly simply and decisively refused, leaving the silver-haired girl a little stunned.

There was obvious disappointment in her gray-blue eyes, and her pretty face also showed a bit of grievance, which made Molly, who had been watching the surveillance footage, feel a little guilty.

I wonder if I've said too much.

If you think about it carefully, people spent a lot of effort to make the souvenirs in order to build good relations with their neighbors, but in the end they got scolded by Molly.

Putting herself in his shoes, Molly felt that she had gone a little too far.

But there is no other way. In this vast world, one's own safety is the most important. Before confirming who wants to kill her, Molly thinks it is better to be safe.

Moreover, the silver-haired girl, Usami Airi, moved in here not earlier or later, but just now when Molly had just settled down and no longer had to worry about her life for the time being.

It’s hard not to think too much about it.

"…Of course, it's also possible that I'm just too suspicious, but it's always better to be careful."

Watching the silver-haired girl leave from the monitor's screen, Molly muttered to herself.

.........

Airi walked to another door on this floor of the apartment in a daze, and instinctively knocked and asked. When no one answered, she took her souvenirs and returned to her room.

However, the moment Airi returned to the room, the aggrieved expression on her face instantly disappeared.

The face that originally looked easy to bully suddenly became very cold and distant, and just looking at it would make people shiver.

Usami Airi, this is of course not her real name, and she is not Japanese.

This is just her disguise.

As for the reason for the disguise...

"…I have successfully made contact with Little Miss."

Sitting on the edge of the window, looking at the city below which was beginning to light up with neon lights, Airi placed one hand on her temple, her eyes slightly shining as she carried on a conversation with someone.

"...Yes, the young lady didn't recognize me. After all, I was just protecting her in secret...Yes, the young lady is very wary."

"..."

"Master, you are too kind! Protecting the young lady is my job, so it's not a question of whether it's hard or not... Yes, I will protect the young lady..."

Ai Li spoke to the person on the other end of the phone in a panic, then chatted with the person on the other end for a few more words before hanging up.

When the call ended, Airi's expression became calm again.

She took out a small box from her luggage, and then the box opened. A small robot that looked like a spider crawled out of the box and crawled into Airi's hand.

Airi took the spider-like machine and came to the ventilation vent in the room, then placed her hand on it.

The spider climbed down Airi's hand and successfully made its way into the ventilation duct.

Airi closed her eyes and established a connection with the small spider's visual system. Soon, everything in the ventilation duct appeared in Airi's eyes.

After crawling along the ventilation duct for a while, Airi controlled the spider to leave from another vent.

And that vent is connected to Molly's home.

But Airi didn't stop here.

She looked around the room stealthily, and when she saw Molly leaning on the sofa watching TV and not paying attention to her side, she continued crawling towards the door.

Molly's shoes were placed at the entrance. Ai Li took a look and confirmed that these were the shoes Molly often wore, then she crawled to the side of the shoes.

A space appeared in the tiny spider's abdomen, and then a tiny sticker of the same color as the edge of the shoe was sent out and then stuck to the side of the shoe.

After all this was done, the small spiders began to return, and Airi breathed a sigh of relief.

The stickers attached to the sides of the shoes are tracking devices that pinpoint Molly's location.

Originally, Airi didn't need to go through so much trouble. The souvenir she gave was a teddy bear decoration that suited Molly's preferences very well. As long as Molly accepted it and carried it with her at all times, Airi could monitor Molly's condition all the time.

But unfortunately, Molly was too vigilant.

"It's a good thing that the young lady is alert, but if she's too alert, I won't be able to get close to her, right..."
