Kisaragi's Long-Strange Collection Notes

An afternoon passed, and everything that could be analyzed had been analyzed once.

Currently, there are two main points limiting further investigations:

One is the relevant authority of the municipal government, such as information on homeowners and addresses of former delivery workers;

One aspect is the investigation into the motive. So far, no one has been found to have benefited from Chen Meimei's death, and there isn't even a single suspect among those around her.

"Alright, let's stop here for now. From now on, we'll investigate while improving our strength. Strength is the most important thing."

"As long as our family is powerful enough, we can wait for the person behind the scenes to jump out and slap him to death."

"BoBo, you've done a great job today too. Hurry up and get to the table. You'll get to eat a variety of different flavors for dinner."

"Yay!" Bobo rolled around happily in the big porcelain plate.

Night has fallen; tonight is the full moon.

Looking at the yellow moon outside the window, Chen Meimei once again transformed into a humanoid figure made of light spots, and [Yellow Robe] went online.

"You're free to do as you please, I'll go register our association."

Establishing an association is not easy, or rather, it is very difficult.

On the surface, as long as there is a powerful individual of [mystery] level 3 or above, one can freely register and establish the organization.

In reality, registering is easy, but truly establishing oneself is very difficult.

In an era that has enjoyed peace for over 3000 years, the relevant interests in each city have been completely divided up by the old associations.

Even the spaces within the city are divided into distinct zones, much like dividing up territory.

For example, in the southern district, members of other societies tacitly agree that this area belongs to the [Southern Lord Society], with all related profits going to Southern Lord and his group, and they are also responsible for cleaning up any problems that arise.

A new association will inevitably disrupt the existing distribution scheme, which is not something that vested interests want to see.

The headquarters of the Sixiang City Municipal Government.

Humans typically work during the day and rest at night in cities.

But this is a mysterious world, and there are always some beings that are nocturnal, active only at night.

For example, [Silver Moon Garden] always likes to make some big moves on frosty moon nights.

Municipal government headquarters must also set up some reception windows at night.

Today, the person on night shift at the association-related service window is Director Wang from the Association Affairs Office.

Director Wang is not young, around 50 years old. In his youth, he was a mysterious figure who dared to fight and struggle. In middle age, he was injured on duty, which cut off his future prospects. So he transferred to the municipal government headquarters to take up a leadership position, where he has been for ten years.

Those on the night shift are all leaders.

Because usually no one comes at night, and if someone does come, it's usually a big or urgent matter that the grassroots level can't handle.

Director Wang was engrossed in reading a book.

"Cough cough~"

A soft cough came from in front of me.

He looked up and saw a human figure made of dots of light appear in the service hall.

Director Wang, being a practitioner by trade, immediately recognized the extraordinary figure before him.

Mysterious as it may be, someone who can outwardly display mystery is definitely a big shot.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" Director Wang put down the book he was holding.

"I want to form a society."

"To form an association?"

"Is there a problem?"

"No problem, there are three conditions that need to be met to establish a society in Sixiang City:"

1. There is a mysterious person with a [mystery] level of 3 or higher;

2. Possessing its own association headquarters;

3. Through background checks, confirm that there is no history of serious criminal activity.

Chen Meimei: ......

No, I only know there's a first one, where did the other two come from?

"Do you sell them here?"

Director Wang shook his head: "You'll have to figure that out yourself."

"No. 33, Ground Floor, Paradise Street." Chen Meimei tried to bluff her way through by giving the address of the Wooden Leak Tea House.

Director Wang, with a businesslike, poker face, said: "The association's headquarters must be no less than 1000 square meters."

Chen Meimei frowned. These requirements were a bit high. This kind of base was not something that ordinary people could afford.

What does 1000 square meters mean?

He currently lives in a two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment of only 90 square meters. 1000 square meters is equivalent to two entire floors of the building where he lives.

"This request is unreasonable, you should change it." Chen Meimei was quick-witted; if she couldn't solve the problem, she would deal with the person who raised it.

Director Wang has seen all sorts of powerful and influential people, but this is the first time he's met someone like this.

"This is stipulated by the city's laws, and I have no right to change it."

"That's a problem you created yourselves, so figure it out yourselves," Chen Meimei said arrogantly, arms crossed.

Do the laws of a mere city think they can govern the moon in the sky?

Sensing the impatience in the voice of the figure in the light and shadow opposite him, Director Wang was just about to stand up for himself when he looked up and met Chen Meimei's eyes.

Those weren't human eyeballs; they were two crescent moons.

In just a moment, his rationality almost collapsed.

"Okay, I'll process it for you right away."

[Mysterious] Level 3 Director Wang knows what he is doing and that it is wrong, but he cannot control his mouth or his body.

However, even if he manages to regain control, he will no longer oppose the entity in front of him.

Such a person only needs to establish an association, do as instructed, and report back; why would he risk his life?

"You need to provide a residential address."

There are no area restrictions in this requirement.

This problem still stumped Chen Meimei.

This association will not be associated with Chen Meimei in public, so he cannot fill in the address of the South District Building or the Paradise Building.

But where can I get an address?

"Leave the address as [Moon Palace]."

Director Wang wanted to ask where the Moon Palace was, but his hands were honest and simply wrote down "[Moon Palace]" in the association's location column.

What is the publicly announced level of "mystery"?

"Level 5." Chen Meimei's unit of measurement for the strength of the strong is the clown, and level 5 is exactly the amount of a clown.

"What is your name?"

"[Yellow shirt]."

What is your real name?

"jump over."

"We need to conduct a background check on you, but we are missing your real name information..."

"jump over."

"What is the name of the society?"

"[May the moon live on forever]."

"Okay, all information has been entered, and the results should be available within three days."

"Get the results now."

"...Okay. I need to contact the three-person council; I need final confirmation from [the superior] and [the chairman]."

"Hurry up."

Director Wang greatly admired the figure in front of him, who dared not run even though he knew he was going to find the "officer" and the "chairman".

Chief Sun of the government administration agency and Chairman An of the association arrived in less than half an hour.

As two of the three leaders of the Council of Three, their strength is among the strongest in Sixiang City.

Long ago, they were the people of [Mystery] 5th tier.

These past few years have passed; who knows if they've made any breakthroughs?

"Alright, everyone's here, let's continue." Chen Meimei's eyes swept over the two people who entered.

The two powerful figures that Director Wang had been eagerly awaiting arrived, and like him, they obediently signed off on the authorizations.

In less than an hour, a new association appeared in Sixiang City.

[Like the Moon Forever] was officially established.
