Academy City's Puppet Master

Except for Kanzaki Kaori, the others felt their scalps tingling, as if they could feel the piercing pain.

Sure enough, the next second, Kamijou Touma hugged his right hand and howled.

At the same time, the stone statue in front of Kamijou Touma also became stiff and motionless, and then began to crumble and shatter from the fist.

"Success!" Misaka Mikoto cheered.

"Xue Li, you lost!" Kanzaki Kaori said loudly, "Just grab it!"

The other party did not respond.

The stone statue, which had collapsed most of its body, suddenly moved again!

The remaining left arm slammed towards Kamijou Touma again.

Kamijou Touma hadn't expected such an event at all.Before he had time to get up, he saw a black shadow jumping over his head, and he also threw his fist to meet it, head-to-head with the stone statue.

boom!

With this punch, the arm of the stone statue was blown apart, and it collapsed into clods and gravel at an accelerated rate.

When the black shadow fell, Kamijou Touma realized that it was Ling Xingye's sprite.

The magician Shirley finally reappeared in front of everyone.

Without the cover of the stone statue, she was no match for these people in front of her.

Kanzaki Kaori no longer hesitated, rushed over to capture him.

Shirley did not continue to resist.

In fact, the moment she saw Kanzaki appear, she was ready to be defeated and arrested.

Shirley was bound by Kanzaki Kaori, and after the magic power was sealed, everyone stayed where they were for a while to rest.

During this period, Kanzaki Kaori will contact the Supreme Bishop to confirm the next solution to this matter.

Since it was related to Academy City, Supreme Bishop Lola had to discuss with Aleister—and finally decided on Shirley's disposal plan.

"But no matter what, it won't end well." Kanzaki Kaori sighed.

Shirley herself didn't care too much: "It doesn't matter, anyway, my purpose has been partially fulfilled - the magician attacked Academy City, as long as the message is conveyed is enough!"

Shirley even hopes that Academy City can punish herself severely, because this will further provoke the conflict between the camps of magic and science!

So she has no fear.

"Are you kidding me!" Kamijou Touma walked up to her, "Do you really want to start a war between magicians and Academy City!"

===Chapter 24 Reappearance of the Nightwalk of the Hundred Ghosts===

"Do you want to start a war that much!" Kamijou Touma scolded angrily.

Shirley looked at him coldly: "My purpose is not to start a war, but to keep the two worlds at a distance and never interact—but if the war can achieve this goal, I don't mind ushering in a war !"

"Why do you hate science so much?" Misaka Mikoto also came over and asked.

"I don't hate science," Shirley replied. "What I hate is the close contact between science and magic. Magic belongs to magic, and science is science. The two worlds should be parallel to each other, and there will never be a point of intersection!"

Ling Xingye, who had been listening in, couldn't help but wonder: "Why can't we meet?"

After all, the puppet master organization "Baiyin" he currently belongs to, and the automatic puppet organization "Yanshi" that opposes it, can actually be regarded as the existence of the fusion of magic and technology.

"Because the contact between magic and science can only bring tragedy!"

"Do you still want to avenge Alice?" Kanzaki Kaori sighed.

"I just want to avoid similar tragedies from happening again." Shirley said, "If I want revenge, I won't be looking for Academy City, but the Knights!"

"Knights?"

Shirley sneered and said, "The information has been blocked, so not many people know about it. Alice was not killed by Academy City. The real murderers are those conservative knights!"

It turns out that 20 years ago, the British Puritan Church and Academy City once had a cooperation - they wanted to combine magic and scientific technology and knowledge to create a brand new technology.Shirley Cromwell was one of the participants at that time. According to the orders of the adults, she was responsible for teaching the magic spells of Alice Wallia, a superpower user from Academy City.

However, after performing the technique Shirley taught, Alice, who is a superpower, bled all over her body for some unknown reason and fell to the ground with serious injuries.

However, at this time, the knight faction who opposed the exchange of magic and science came in to destroy this cooperation.

In order to help Shirley escape, Alice stayed behind, but was beaten to death by the knight with a war hammer.

Shirley lost her best friend as a result.

That's why she insisted that the two worlds of science and magic shouldn't be too close - if they get closer at will, it will only create tragedy!

In order to prevent such a tragedy from happening again, Shirley did not hesitate to take the lead in provoking disputes, using the most direct and brutal means to separate magic and science.

"Because I am a magician myself, I can only choose to attack Academy City." Shirley said, "I'm really sorry. If it wasn't for provoking conflicts, I would rather seek revenge from the murderer sent by the Knights."

"Unreasonable..." Misaka Mikoto said.

The other party's experience is indeed worthy of sympathy, but her ideas and actions have been distorted to the point where it is not acceptable at all.

Misaka Mikoto lost the mood to continue communicating—if she wants to convince others, she must at least convince herself first.

But now, she already knew that there was no kind and righteous existence in Academy City.And she is doing similar acts of sabotage herself, so she has no position to blame others.

The scene fell silent until Shirai Heizi approached.
