"Hey, Mike. I heard they said you came to school today."
Just as Caroline waited for Mike's answer, Lisa, the campus beauty queen dressed in a fresh, simple style with a pleasant smile, also arrived at the parking lot.
As soon as the girl arrived, she walked familiarly towards Mike, and when she passed the Channing Family's eldest daughter, she did not forget to give her a provocative look.
"Wow, is this your new car? It looks good, can I try sitting in it?" At the same time, Lisa also noticed the luxury car behind Mike.
Already possessing an extremely high appearance, and now with considerable financial resources, Mike was definitely the highest quality male of his age that Lisa had encountered so far.
Of course, his extremely high appearance played the main role, after all, humans are visual creatures.
This was also why Lisa was eager to spread the news and quickly confirm her relationship with Mike.
"Sorry, there's no room for you in this car." Mike avoided the girl's attempt to hug his arm and shook his head slightly.
Possessing the ability to hear women's thoughts, he heard many unpleasant things in the girl's heart: a desire to compete, vanity, and female-style scheming.
The only thing missing was probably "sincerity."
It was at this moment that Needy, who had long been annoyed by Lisa's pretentious behavior, stepped forward expressionlessly, blocking Mike and separating the girl who came to "harass" him.
The situation immediately became clear:
Aside from Caroline, who was "watching the show" nearby, Lisa instantly became an "outsider" among the few people present.
Still wanting to struggle, she immediately put on a "wronged" expression, looking pitifully at Mike.
She intended to use this posture to awaken the man's protective instincts.
It must be said that to become the Columbia University beauty queen not long after the new school year began, Lisa definitely had something special about her.
It was just a pity that this time the girl met Mike, and a Mike who possessed the ability to hear women's thoughts.
All her little schemes were completely exposed in Mike's eyes.
"Alright then, when your car has a spot, feel free to let me know…"
Facing Mike's indifferent attitude, Lisa still did not intend to give up on this rare quality stock immediately.
Before leaving, she used words that both could understand to entice him: "I'm very experienced at driving—"
…
"Do you need anything else?" After watching Lisa leave, Mike turned to look at the Channing Family's eldest daughter.
"Uh, no…" Caroline, who had just watched a wonderful performance, suddenly showed a sweet smile on her face and temporarily invited: "I want to hold a private party this weekend, I wonder if you're free?"
Caroline, who grew up in an ivory tower, was very well protected by her father. Unfamiliar with social etiquette, she almost wore her thoughts on her face.
Mike had no doubt that the "private" party the girl mentioned would very likely end up with only two people.
The truth was, this was another girl who coveted his body.
However, compared to Lisa, Caroline's thoughts were a bit simpler, and she had no ill intentions.
"It depends!" Mike replied: "If I'm free that day, I'll let you know in advance."
Mike, who possessed the ability to hear women's thoughts, had no need to worry about being tricked by women.
He mainly focused on not missing out on good girls.
"OK, it's a deal then." Facing the man's slightly perfunctory attitude, Caroline was still very happy.
After all, happiness is often found through comparison…
…
After staying at school for two more days, on Thursday during the midday break, Mike received a mission call from MIB Headquarters.
According to Agent Z, a "dangerous" Green-Faced Bandit had recently appeared near Broadway.
This person possessed a bizarre "transformation" ability and was impervious to blades and guns, and his behavior pattern was exceptionally strange.
The first time this wack appeared, he dealt with the thugs in the Broadway district, looking like a "superhero."
Up to this point, there was nothing wrong.
However, immediately after, this person turned around and used his superpower to rob the Broadway district bank clean, solidifying his identity as a Bandit.
The main point was the contrast!
"According to the FBI's preliminary speculation, the identity of that Green-Faced Bandit is very likely Stanley, a small clerk at the Broadway Bank…"
After Agent Z introduced the basic situation of the Bandit, he got to the point: "Based on this person's transformation ability, MIB Headquarters speculates that the other party may have obtained the mask of the God of Mischief…"
"If the situation is true, your mission this time is to retrieve that mask."
According to existing literature, the evil god Loki is also known as the God of Mischief. His ability is to bewitch people's hearts and amplify human desires, including the desire for slaughter.
So far, there have been no reports of injuries caused by the Green-Faced Bandit, but if the other party's ability truly comes from the mask.
Then one day he will become a devil who only knows slaughter because of this mask.
This was also the biggest concern for MIB Headquarters.
"Listen, Agent M, the mask also has the ability to bewitch people's hearts. It will make the person who obtains it unknowingly wear the mask on their face…"
Because it involved an evil god, Agent Z did not forget to specifically remind him before the call ended: "Therefore, please be extra careful with this mission. If necessary, you can seek help from Headquarters or Father James from the church."
Here, it is necessary to mention the difference between the God system and the Zeus pantheon.
The church believes that God, as the supreme deity, truly exists, and therefore needs reverence and prayer.
However, the Zeus pantheon, including the evil god Loki, are fictional mythological figures in legends, and therefore do not require reverence.
In this situation, it was considered a professional match for clergy to deal with troubles caused by mythological figures.
"Thank you for your concern, I will be careful." Mike accepted the other party's goodwill.
At the same time, through Agent Z's description, Mike had probably already guessed what the Green-Faced Bandit was all about.
It must be said that although Stanley was an unfortunate small person, his heart was more "noble" than many others.
Under the premise of suddenly possessing superpowers and being bewitched by the mask, the worst thing he did was merely take some dollars.
If nothing unexpected happened, the inducement for Stanley to rob the bank was because another group of robbers was robbing the bank at that time.
Stanley could be considered, in a roundabout way, to have temporarily helped the bank protect the dollars.
…
After preliminarily determining that Stanley posed no great threat, Mike took Paige and Collins back to the villa during the afternoon school dismissal time, and then took Needy to the adjacent Broadway district.
When Mike and Needy arrived at Stanley's rented house, a pile of FBI agents' cars were already parked in front of the residential building.
Clearly, the robbery of the Broadway Bank had already aroused high attention from the relevant departments.
"Who's in charge here?" To avoid trouble, Mike directly showed his FBI badge.
"Hello, Captain." A middle-aged man with a detective chief's badge pinned to his clothes stepped forward and said: "I am Lieutenant Peter Kelleway, and I am leading this team."
The FBI badge issued to Mike by the MIB did not specify a particular position, probably similar to a special badge that outranked officials below a certain level.
It was effective for all ranks below general in the police.
Therefore, even though Mike looked young, in Detective Chief Peter's eyes, he was definitely a "big shot."
"Hello, sir. May I ask what mission you're carrying out this time?" Mike asked.
On the other side, Peter also explained the situation to Mike in detail.
It turned out that according to the bank's surveillance, on the day the bank was robbed, a fierce robbery battle had taken place between the Green-Faced Bandit and another group of robbers.
The Green-Faced Bandit was the one being attacked.
Of course, none of this was important. What was important was that during the fierce battle, half of the Green-Faced Bandit's tie was broken off and left at the crime scene.
The FBI was tracking this clue to find Stanley.
