Academy City's Puppet Master

At this time, Haruka Yuanshan and the others each walked out of the store with a piece of ice cream, enjoying the coolness of the summer.

"Huh? Did you hear a strange tune?" Meixi Yaoshi, who is most sensitive to sound, suddenly tilted her head and listened carefully.

===Chapter [-] Illusion===

"Song? Do you have it?" Mei Lilu beside her also turned her head to listen, "There is no song at all! Did Meixi hear it wrong?"

"Perhaps..." Yaoshi Temple Meixi also became suspicious, "Maybe I misheard."

The three continued to walk along the pedestrian street.

But he couldn't find a topic for a while, so he could only lick the ice cream in his hand in silence.

Yakushiji Mixi chose vanilla-flavored ice cream. Because of concerns about maintaining her weight, the three girls were very restrained and only chose one ball.

Yuan Shanyao chose the strawberry flavor, and Meililu's chocolate flavor, which happened to be a complete set of three colors.

They agreed to exchange tastings with each other, so that they can try all flavors of ice cream!

"That's right! Let's exchange ice cream!" Yakushiji Miyuki said enthusiastically.

She turned around and looked, only to find that Yuan Shanyao and Mei Lilu were gone.

Immediately afterwards, Yaoshiji Meixi suddenly found that she herself had come to a strange place at some point—it looked like a remote and deserted electronic parts store, and the shelves around her were full of electronic components she didn't know. And small mechanical parts such as gears and springs.

Yakushiji Mixi is not interested in these things at all, and she will never enter such a shop.

"Strange...what's going on? Why did I come to this kind of place unknowingly?" Yakushiji Mixi muttered, "And I got separated from Haruka and the others... Isn't the street very crowded today?"

The girl wandered around the shop in a daze, but did not notice the other two.She didn't even see a second customer besides herself.

And as Yakushiji Mixi observed her body deeply, and her mind gradually became clearer, more and more sense of disobedience surfaced in her heart.

Not only is there no one here, but the whole space is filled with abnormally cold colors. The azure blue cold light pours down from the ceiling above the head like flowing water, giving people a weird and strange sense.

It's like being in an underwater environment...

"There is a familiar feeling..." Yakushiji Mixi murmured, her brain thinking became clearer, "By the way, when I was diving in the bottom of the swimming pool yesterday, it was such a color!"

"Is this an underwater environment?" Yakushiji Mixi was taken aback—as she woke up, the air around her became thicker and thicker, and finally it seemed to really turn into a liquid.

She threw away the ice cream in a hurry, raised her hand to cover her mouth and nose and held her breath, worried about drowning.

"But how is this possible? The store has turned into an underwater environment? Is this the technology of the swimming pool yesterday?" Yakushiji Mixi's thoughts changed sharply, "This is unscientific! Could it be the legendary magic... or is it because I was In a dream?"

Yaoshiji Meixi was taken aback suddenly: "In a dream? No, this is a hallucination!"

Yakushiji Mixi suddenly realized, she knew best - because when she worked part-time with Mr. Kiyama Haruki, the last experiment she conducted was a similar job!

——Through one's own singing voice, it indirectly affects other sense organs of the human body, thus producing a real "illusion".

Yakushiji Mixi suddenly recalled the strange tune she heard just now.

If that is "lullaby", it can indeed indirectly interfere with her other senses such as vision and touch through auditory effects.

"...That is to say, what I see and feel now is all fake!" Yakushi Tera Mixi gritted her teeth, forcing herself to ignore the strong discomfort of being submerged in water.

It's all an illusion!

The girl shouted in her heart, then closed her eyes, opened her red lips lightly, and sang her own "song".

Theoretically speaking, at the end of the part-time job, the "illusion" system has not really been completed, it is only verified in theory.

Yakushiji Miyu can't do that... Of course, Mr. Kiyama Haruki's is far from being practical.

So Yakushiji Mixi herself couldn't be quite sure.

But at this moment, all she can do is try her best.

la la la~

The singing of Yakushiji Miyu resounded in this space.

The azure blue "sea water" centered on the girl's body, rippled round after round.

The sea water receded like an ebb tide, and Yakushiji Mixi could hear the sound of the tide surging in her ears.

Then, the sound of running water gradually turned into a melodious and ethereal song.

The azure water light receded, and then the electronic parts store shattered into pieces like glass ornaments and disappeared without a trace.

The "song" dissipated, Yaoshiji Meixi's ears heard the bustling voices on the street again.

It worked!

Yakushiji Mixi opened her eyes again, and found that she was standing at the intersection of an empty alley not far from the ice cream shop just now, with pedestrians coming and going in front of her.

Many people stopped to listen to her singing.

This discovery made Yakushiji Mixi blush a little.But she immediately realized that she was attacked!

"Melilu! Ah Yao!" She quickly turned her head to look for the other two.

……

"Ayao? Meixi? Where are you?" Meryl yelled loudly.

Beside her was a strange azure blue space. Although it looked like an old computer room of an Internet cafe, it gave people the feeling of being immersed in water.
