Academy City's Puppet Master

So, in order to observe and record relevant experimental data, isn't it a matter of course to put surveillance cameras all over the city?

However, the truly rigorous and complete monitoring network is also part of the "truth" behind the city.Ordinary people will probably never know these things in their lifetime.

It is only mass-produced, and the Misaka sisters who exist as experimental consumables are naturally impossible to know about this kind of thing.

So Misaka 10001 didn't know that her whereabouts had already been captured by a hidden camera and fed back to Kihara's desk.

Seeing the girl on the screen carrying a delicate killing weapon and running forward with agility far beyond ordinary people, the lead researcher of the "Absolutely Capable Person Evolution Project" sneered.

"Exclude the individual... I originally planned to let you go mercifully—if I just stay out of it and be an ordinary person honestly..."

"However, now that you've thrown yourself into the trap with such enthusiasm...it really saves me a lot of effort not to have to make extensive adjustments to the experiment."

Kihara Shuta jumped up and shouted loudly: "Come on, gather the hounds for me! Get ready to work!"

"—Let's get back what was lost!"

Misaka 10001, who was walking through the remote alleys, didn't know about it.

She is rushing to the scheduled meeting point with all her heart, and she is rehearsing the countermeasures in her mind.

Although Misaka 10001 volunteered to join the "Special Operations Squad", she had no intention of running to Accelerator to die.Because now her master is Ling Xingye, he is Ling Xingye's "property", and it is not allowed to lose her life without the master's permission.

"Misaka can understand what Accelerator is thinking. As long as Misaka explains well, shows the desire to live, and concentrates on begging for mercy, even Accelerator will understand and give up killing, right? Misaka is satisfied with her plan. "

……

"What a misfortune!" Kamijou Touma wailed, walking weakly on the street...

In the morning, Kamijou Touma woke up early.

It's rare that there is no tutoring class today, so I should be able to sleep in.

But because there was a silver-haired nun at home, she was hungry early in the morning, and she strongly called for breakfast in the form of a monster running away—the specific method was to use her iron teeth and copper teeth to eat Kamijou Touma's head.

Kamijou Touma could only wake up from his sleep screaming.If she doesn't want to prepare breakfast for this nun who has entered the foraging state, she will definitely use her head as a substitute food, right?

Sighing for his rare time to sleep in, Kamijou Touma lazily started cooking breakfast.At the same time, I habitually think about what dishes to use for lunch and dinner today...

"It's kind of sad...why did Mr. Kamijou think about such a thing in the early morning of summer vacation? It's unfortunate..."

Kamijou Touma sighed again after looking back at the mysterious beautiful girl who was sitting in front of the kitchen table and beating the table.

Although she looks like a beautiful girl—she is a nun, but after actually living together, she still can only feel all kinds of inconveniences!

Sure enough, the beautiful life of living with beautiful girls only exists in comics, right?

...and Ling Xingye's house next door.

You can't blame Kamijou Touma for complaining, because after all, Kamijou Touma doesn't know who this nun named Index is and why she lives in her room.

Not only that, Kamijou Touma doesn't even know who he is, where he lives, and who his parents are.

Because Kamijou Touma lost his memory.

During an incident just last month, Kamijou Touma seemed to have lost all of his memory after some mysterious attack hit his brain.

The only good news is that apart from the amnesia, other parts of his body are intact.

And what is lost is only "memory", not "knowledge".

Otherwise, whether he can continue to maintain the state of an ordinary person and live a normal life is a problem.

Not to mention concealing amnesia like now, pretending to be the real "Kamijo Touma" and living ordinary daily life.

This silver-haired beautiful girl named Index is someone "Kamijo Touma" knows, so it seems that she is also a very important person, right?

When I woke up in the hospital ward, apart from the doctors and nurses and the patient Ling Xingye in the next bed, the first person I saw was Index.

It was precisely because of the girl's crying and confession at that time that Kamijou Touma made up his mind to pretend that he didn't have amnesia and everything was normal.

For this reason, Kamijou Touma is willing to deceive everyone, trying his best to disguise himself as the former "Kamijo Touma".

Then, Index just lived in his apartment as a matter of course, occupied his bed as a matter of course, and urged him to ask for more food every day.

Thanks to her, Kamijou Touma suddenly realized that living with a beautiful girl is not a good experience.

"Speaking of which, I feel more like this guy's nanny and owner." Sighing again, Kamijou prepared to serve dishes to fill the stomach of the hungry nun.

Index grabbed her chopsticks and started gobbling.

"Eat slowly, are you a starving ghost? No one snatched it from you..." Kamijou Touma couldn't help complaining.

Every time I see the scene of Index eating, I feel a little disillusioned - I can't treat Index as an ordinary beautiful girl, is it because of this?

"...Hey! Slow down! This is my share, don't eat it all! Stop, shut up!"

Without paying attention, Index's exaggerated eating speed invaded Kamijou Touma's side.

"No, because Touma doesn't seem to have any appetite, so let me do it for you... It's not okay to waste food!"

"Who doesn't seem to have an appetite! Don't use your own standards to judge the appetite of ordinary people!"

===Chapter 24 The Mission That Falls from the Sky===

After a fierce struggle, Kamijou Touma finally snatched half of the breakfast from Index's mouth, barely filling his stomach.

After getting along with each other for this period of time, Kamijou Touma has become accustomed to the level of fighting for food, at least he will no longer get angry because of it.
