Academy City's Puppet Master

Ten lines at a glance, almost scanning-like reading speed, and a strong memory formed through special training, allowed her to process all the test papers in just [-] minutes.

Hearing Ling Xingye's question, Teacher Sachiko Sakura showed a displeased expression on her face.

Sure enough, Hitomi Shiranui and Ling Xingye were among the only three full marks in the class.

Since the handwriting of the two was almost exactly the same, Teacher Xingzi did not suspect Ling Xingye of cheating.

After all, Ling Xingye does have the qualifications for full marks... as long as he is willing.

Ling Xingye's cheating method does not rely on superpowers, so the instrument cannot detect it at all.Moreover, this is a secret method between him and Hitomi Shiranui, which is unknown to outsiders, and of course it is even more impossible to be discovered.

According to everyone's performance, the bonus will arrive almost simultaneously.

Although there is no fourth perfect score, the whole class has achieved high scores, and the bonus has not been deducted too much.

So the whole class cheered and began to wait for the final holiday time.

After that, school will be over in two hours, and tomorrow will be the first day of summer vacation.This pre-holiday exam is actually a benefit Mr. Sachiko seeks for the students—to give the students an extra pocket money in a legal name so that they can enjoy the summer vacation better.

It is also from this holiday that Ling Xingye will move out of the special dormitory building in Changdian Shangji Academy, and choose a relatively remote student apartment to live alone.

……

The sprite turned into a ghostly black shadow, and the sharp blades that sprang from the wrists of both hands flashed past the enemy like the wind.

The other party didn't seem to think that I could manipulate sprites to make such a sharp counterattack in this situation, right?

Blood burst, both arms and left legs fell off the man's body!

Amidst the screams, the spear stuck in my chest also lost its power, unable to tear my chest further.

I was the one who won and survived in the end!

……

"Xingye, are you tired lately? You fell asleep again before school just now... When Teacher Sachiko was talking, Teacher Sachiko is very dissatisfied with you now."

On the way back from school, Hitomi Shiranui looked worriedly at the boy beside him.

The two were walking side by side to Ling Xingye's new home.

"Maybe it was because I slept late last night." Ling Xingye responded.

He was carrying a huge travel bag in his hand, the size could almost fit a person in it, and it was packed full, but Ling Xingye didn't seem to be struggling at all, walking easily and freely.

"I'm going to live alone from now on, so I can't stay up all night." Hitomi Shiranui warned worriedly.

"Okay, okay..." But the boy's reply was full of perfunctory tone, not trustworthy at all.

Ling Xingye didn't give the other party a chance to reprimand, so he quickly changed the subject——

"By the way, what does Hitomi think of dreams?"

Hitomi Shiranui nodded, with a really emotional expression: "Did you really have a nightmare? Before and after the exam just now. There is a theory that dreams are foretelling the future.

"The scientific explanation is that the brain subconsciously integrates the information around it and makes predictions about the future... In my opinion, Starry Night's dream should be of this type, right?"

"Oh? Really?" Ling Xingye said, "Are new enemies coming again?"

"After all, it has been quiet for so long." Shiranui Hitomi did not show the slightest surprise, "Be safe and well."

"Don't worry, you've already gotten used to this kind of thing—the two of us," Ling Xingye didn't take it seriously, and stepped forward quickly, "Here we are, right here!"

"Is there such a desolate apartment building in the seventh school district?"

Standing downstairs of the dilapidated apartment on the seventh floor, Hitomi Shiranui couldn't help but marvel.

Because the famous "Miss School" - Tokiwadai Middle School is located in the seventh school district, and Hitomi Shiranui usually contacts with this kind of wealthy schools, so she always thought it was a very high school district.

"That's because Hitomi has only been in contact with Tokiwadai Middle School." Ling Xingye was not frustrated by the dilapidated appearance of the apartment building, "There are also many ordinary schools here. Many schools do not have their own dormitory buildings planned separately, so Students can only live in these student apartments, and live separately. But the advantage is that they all share a single room, and the rent is cheap.”

"It's not bad to say that." Shiranui Hitomi smiled and nodded, acting more excited than Ling Xingye himself, and took his hand and walked forward, "Then hurry up and look at the room! It's on the seventh floor ?”

The two squeezed into the slightly cramped elevator and pressed the button for the seventh floor.

It seems that there is a roof above, but the corresponding button has been firmly covered by an iron plate.

The two squeezed together face to face in the elevator, Shiranui Hitomi's plump chest pressed tightly against Ling Xingye's chest, but the girl herself didn't seem to care, instead she was worried that her clothes would be stained by the elevator wall, so she moved closer to Ling Xingye.

"What a small elevator! How did the people from the moving company move the big piece of furniture up?" The girl was concerned about other aspects.

"There is an emergency staircase next to it." Ling Xingye explained, "Or choose air transportation. Drones, ladders, people with related abilities... There are many methods that can be used."

As he said that, Ling Xingye found that Hitomi Shiranui was looking straight at him with his head up.

"……What's wrong?"

"Xingye grows so fast, before I know it, she's already a head taller than me."

The girl stood on her tiptoes so that the eyes of the two were at the same level: "When we first met, I was still a little taller than you."

"Ding!"

The elevator just reached the seventh floor, Hitomi Shiranui turned around and jumped out of the elevator.

Ling Xingye shook his head, and followed with his huge travel bag.The elevator was so crowded before, and there was also the reason for this travel bag that I always carry with me.

"After all, we've known each other for three years."
