Chapter 176 Return of the property to its original owner
When Kagami was immersed in sadness, he suddenly remembered something.

He didn't come here to work, but to find someone.

He came here because he found out that Tiandao was here.

Kagami looked around and saw Tiandao who had eaten and drunk his fill.

What made him even more sad was that it was a very familiar smell. He could smell it, the aroma of miso mackerel, but the plate was already empty.

That was what he had always wanted to eat, and only Xiaoxi could make it, but now it had been eaten by Tiandao, and he might never be able to eat it again in the future because he had just been fired.

"Heaven's Way!" he said in grief and anger.

"It just so happens that you're here too. I just wanted to know about your situation."

Tiandao was very puzzled when he saw Kagami's eyes which seemed to want to kill him. Shouldn't he be saying this to Jiang Xia who was stealing his job?
"Shh, shh, shh. We can't involve ordinary people." After saying that, Kagami looked awkwardly at Jiang Xia who was looking at him.

"You guys chat." Jiang Xia stood up and prepared to leave.

"No, he is not an ordinary person. Jiang Xia, come with us and let's defeat the alien insects together." Tiandao said.

"Are you trying to get me to join you?" Jiang Xia looked at the serious Tiandao Zongsi.

"Ah."

"Hey, hey, hey, don't discuss this here, can we go outside and talk about it?"

Kagami on the side was almost getting anxious. Is it appropriate to talk about the Zerg here?

The Zerg are almost like urban legends. If the organization finds out that the news about the Zerg came from his mouth, he will definitely be expelled from ZECT.

"Okay, I agree."

Jiang Xia turned to Kusakabe Xi who was in the kitchen and said, "Xiao Xi, I'm going to be out for a while. You look after the store first."

"Okay." Kusakabe Xi, who was washing dishes in a red apron, stuck her head out and agreed.

"You, you, you are the new employee?" Kagami said with trembling lips as she looked at Jiang Xia.

"Yes, because I'm cheap enough and don't need any salary at all." Jiang Xia waved his hand, "Learn from me, Kagami."

Somehow he ran into these two people, one of them ate the miso mackerel, and the other directly caused him to be fired from the store where he worked part-time.

"What, you stole the knight's belt?" Kagami Arata stared at the knight's belt around Jiang Xia's waist in amazement.

Didn’t they say that it was stolen by alien insects?
But no matter how Kagami looks at it, Jiang Xia isn't an alien insect.

"Tiandao, you have known this for a long time." Kagami stared at Tiandao with dead fish eyes.

"Yeah, that's why I asked him to join us. Is this all you know about ZECT? Just the Zerg brought by the meteorite. You really don't know anything else?"

After listening to Kagami's description, Tiandao felt that he seemed to have found the wrong person.

"Well, that's all I know."

After Kagami finished speaking, she looked at Jiang Xia beside her and said sincerely:

"I know that the Knight's Belt is your weapon against the Zerg, but if you lose the Knight's Belt, I don't know what kind of punishment you will suffer, Mr. Tansho."

"So could you please return the knight's belt to me? It's very important to me. Please."

After Kagami finished speaking, she bowed to Jiang Xia.

"Well, since I stole your job, I'll give it back to you."

"Really!" Kagami said in surprise.

Jiang Xia sighed and took off the knight's belt from his waist.

"But I want to tell you one thing. If you want to take back your own things, you don't need to be so polite. If I don't return it to you today, you will have no way to deal with it."

"Not really, I'll call the police." Kagami said in a low voice.

However, he was immediately occupied by the untied knight's belt. Seeing Jiang Xia really return the knight's belt to him, Kagami was completely wrapped in joy. The loss of being fired just now had completely disappeared, as if the whole world had become beautiful.

"Let me return the Knight's Belt first. I think I can get a promotion this time."

Kagami Shingo shouted, then skipped away holding the knight's belt.

"What a pure person." Jiang Xia thought as he looked at the excited Kagami.

"You have other ways to deal with the alien insects." Tiandao walked to Jiang Xia's side and stood still, saying affirmatively.

"Um"

"Although the Knight System was developed by ZECT, the people who own it are not ZECT people. Haven't you owned the belt for a long time?"

"I used to wear a belt only when I had no other choice, but now I don't need the ZECT belt anymore."

As he spoke, Jiang Xia pulled up his waist.

"You have another one exactly the same?" This time Tiandao was really surprised.

This is the third belt I bought. I wonder if this belt is purchased in wholesale.

"The belt is not very important, the insect meter is important. As long as you get the recognition of the insect meter, even if you don't have a belt, the insect meter will guide you to get your own belt." Jiang Xia said.

However, to achieve such a high degree of match, it is estimated that only the protozoa with a backdoor can achieve it.

"So that's how it is. The insect instrument actually has such a secret." Tiandao seemed to understand something and said thoughtfully.

No way, I just said it casually, Tiandao won't take it seriously. Looking at Tiandao Zongsi's face, Jiang Xia felt that something outrageous was about to happen.

At this time, Kagami, who had already left with the knight's belt, ran back panting.

"Huhu, there's one thing I forgot to say, ZECT, ZECT it..." Kagami said.

"You take it easy first." Jiang Xia was a little speechless.

"Ok"

Kagami leaned against the wall to rest for a while, swallowed and said:
"Tian Dao, you must protect your belt. If a non-ZECT person holds the knight's belt, they will not let you go.

If you resist you will be arrested, and possibly killed, so the best thing to do is to join ZECT."

"Huh, that's all." Kagami said after letting out a breath.

"So ZECT is this kind of organization. I understand." Tiandao said nonchalantly.

He had guessed this a long time ago. If he wanted to destroy the alien insects, the power of his companions was indispensable, but the knights in ZECT still needed to be examined.

"Mr. Tansho, I got the belt back." Kagami said excitedly as he returned to the car.

He had just made a phone call and forced Tansho Osamu, who was about to reach the headquarters, to turn back.

"Did you meet the man who took the belt? Are you okay?"

"It's okay, my fighting ability is still very strong." Kagami said with a smile while stroking the knight's belt.

Tiandao Souji put his hand on his belt and glanced at Jiang Xia gently.

Jiang Xia nodded, and then they split into two groups, with two people walking in different directions.

Tendo Souji walked to the stairwell and gradually went underground.

Jiang Xia changed his position and walked towards the river.

The only thing in common among their routes is that they all go to places where few people go.

"Even if the Zerg mimics humans, their IQ isn't very high."

Jiang Xia slowly stopped, turned around, and spoke to a man whose face was pale and even had a hint of horror.
