boy of science

Chapter 30 "My Expectations of You Are Too High..."

Bai Ye only asked questions, but did not answer them.

Something weird by the way.

"A man and a woman, a saint and a sinner, an old man and a child, such a 'human being' hides behind the scenes and manipulates everything in Academy City."

"The tragedies that have happened in this city can all be blamed on him."

"The occurrence, resolution and aftermath of most incidents were all part of his plan."

"Why would they make a clone of you?"

"For mass production of superpowers? Or is there some other purpose?"

"Does the freezing of the "Mass Production Type Capable Person Project" really mean that everything is over?"

"..."

Bai Ye said a lot and asked a lot of questions.

But he didn't provide answers to those questions, because he wanted the girl to investigate by herself.

At this time, Misaka Mikoto was full of doubts.

Is it over?Or just getting started?
What would happen to them if there were clones of themselves?
At the very beginning, she dreamed about things when she was a child, and dreamed that many girls who looked exactly like herself were tortured and killed by the white-haired executioner...

Since what happened when I was a child is true, will it be true later?
The girl frowned slightly, bit her lips lightly, and her eyes were full of worry.

Bai Ye reached out and patted her shoulder.

"Cultivate hard. Only by making yourself stronger can you better face the ups and downs of this cruel world."

Misaka Mikoto raised her head and exchanged glances with Bai Ye.

The boy smiled and nodded at her.

That kind, encouraging and comforting smile made the girl feel a lot more at ease.

Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths, trying to adjust your emotions.

When he opened his eyes again, he became firm.

"I understand."

Strong strength is the foundation.

Only with strength can you protect yourself, those you cherish, and everything you care about.

Level5 is strong, but not strong enough.

Because those researchers alone have many ways to deal with Level 5.

The world is big, and there are still many unknown existences.

The boy in front of me is very mysterious.

Taking advantage of the opportunity that the other party was willing to chat with her, Misaka Mikoto raised questions that had not been answered before.

"who are you?"

Is there any relationship between the white night in the dream and the white night in reality?

this problem……

Still can't get an answer.

The boy just smiled at her and didn't answer at all.

Misaka Mikoto pouted subconsciously.

Seeing that he shut up again, he could only give up the questioning and turn to talk about cultivation.

"I have already been able to use purple current. Although it is not pure purple, it is still improving every day; but the birth of the spirit sword seems to have no progress, and I have not felt anything special so far. Is it because I made a mistake in my cultivation or something? Another question?"

The young man who had returned to his expressionless face lowered his head and thought for a while, before raising his head and looking at the girl: "Because you don't have a sword in your heart."

"Don't have a sword in your heart?"

"You are looking forward to a 'hero' who 'just cry out, and he will come to save me'."

Speaking of this, the young man suddenly sighed and stood up, looking a bit disappointed: "It's because I expected too much from you, let's stop here for the time being, and we will continue when you figure it out."

After speaking, the boy's figure disappeared, and the dream world collapsed.

The girl's consciousness also fell into a haze.

……

Suddenly woke up.

He sat up from the bed all at once, panting heavily with a "hu~hu~".

Letting the quilt slip off her body, the girl woke up completely with a few traces of coolness, and raised her hand to comb her bangs, with a bit of confusion in her brows and eyes.

"A hero who will come to save me just by crying?"

Do you have such expectations?
……

It's past midnight.

Hatsune Miku sat on the chair in front of the desk with his eyes closed, obviously entering the "standby" state.

Prison Cai Haimei was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly.

Bai Ye, who escaped from the girl's dream, stood up and moved his body, and took the remaining materials to make weapons for Hatsune Miku.

Hatsune Miku has a nickname called "Scallion Lady", and her first representative work is called "Song of Scallion".

So the weapon is of course green onions.

Academy City is very dangerous, there are many strange researchers, and many delinquent boys, so you need to have the ability to protect yourself.

It was almost two o'clock in the morning when the weapon was finished.

"It's still a few hours before dawn."

Bai Ye put away the green onion-shaped weapon, and after thinking about it, he climbed directly onto the bed, and got into the warm bed with the blond girl.

Prison Cai Haimei, who was sleeping soundly, was interrupted from her dream, opened her eyes in a daze, and muttered something to complain.

Then turned over and covered the quilt, and continued to sleep deeply.

Bai Ye closed her eyes and fell asleep for the first time in a long time.

……

In the early morning, the sun rises in the east, and everything recovers.

Jail Cai Haimei, who woke up from her dream, found that there was someone beside her, and she was still being hugged by the other person, she was so frightened that she even stopped breathing.

He did not recover until he saw that this person was Bai Ye.

But his expression became a little unnatural again. He touched the clothes on his body and found that they were all in good condition, and there was no abnormal feeling in his body, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Bai Ye, who had woken up a long time ago, noticed her little movements, smiled and stroked her head with her hand, messing up the messy hair even more.

He didn't say anything, just lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

"It's another day."

Hatsune Miku came out of the standby mode and opened his eyes, stood up and prepared to continue his task: making money to support his master.

Seeing that she was going to work, Bai Ye took out a one-meter-long green onion.

"In the future, take this with you. If anyone wants to bully you, you can beat him with this. Protect yourself."

"clear."

Hatsune Miku received the green onion-shaped weapon from its master.

Limited by materials, production time, etc., this weapon is not very powerful, but it is not a problem to kill Level 4 in one shot, and it is enough for her to protect herself.

"I'm off, master."

"Bon voyage, pay attention to safety, remember to earn some extra money for me to use."

"Yes."

Prison Cai Haimei who was sitting on the bed was a little speechless.

The content of this conversation...

If you don't know the truth, you will definitely think that Bai Ye is a scumbag boy who eats soft food.

"Haimi."

"...Ah, yes."

"It's time to get up and make breakfast. In addition, starting today, you can also move back to your dormitory. Just remember to practice hard. I will contact you if there is anything."

As Bai Ye spoke, he looked at the girl on the bed, with a slightly ambiguous smile: "Of course you can live here forever if you want."

"...I understand, Master."

The girl didn't say whether she would move out, but just got up to change clothes.

After washing up, I started to prepare breakfast for two people.

After living here for half a month, she has almost gotten used to it, and it's really a bit strange to suddenly say that she wants to move out...

reluctant?
Anyway, I have a strange feeling in my heart.

Bai Ye didn't care about her thoughts, but thought about Misaka Mikoto's problem.

Is the girl the hero who will be waiting to save her?

Or do you choose to stand up and make yourself your own hero?
This is very important.
