You have to turn off work communications on your day off.
It was Kirino Reisei's message that interrupted Xu Yang's pleasant holiday. He ended the secret communication, guessing that by now A40 must have reached the foot of Mingge Mountain, and then he made a call to A40.
"Are you alone now?" Xu Yang asked.
"My factory settings tell me that I am a Synthetic Human, not a person."
"I'm asking if you're being tracked, or monitored, or hunted."
A40 glanced at the woman in white who was traveling with him. She neither tracked him nor monitored him, let alone hunted him.
"No," A40 replied.
"Keep an eye out for a fox spirit named Nanase Kizuna."
"Coincidentally, I met a woman here who asked me to help her return to Shangjing to kill a fox spirit named Nanase Kizuna."
"Is that so? That's what Reisei Kirino told me," Xu Yang said, confused.
"Exactly, Reisei Kirino told me the same thing," A40 nodded.
"How did you meet Reisei Kirino?"
"In the wilderness."
