Academy City's Puppet Master

He cannot track radio waves, but he can track individuals.

So, Ling Xingye took Misaka 10001 and chased after him.

Chuchun Shili wanted to go with her, but her physical strength was too weak to keep up with Ling Xingye and the others, so she had to give up.

The situation on Saten Ruiko's side seems tense, but in fact there is no need to worry.

She couldn't get very far in such a short time, so it must be somewhere around here.

With the help of Shirai Heizi on the way, this distance can almost be ignored.

So, by the time Ling Xingye and Misaka 10001 arrived, the matter had been resolved.

Contrary to expectations, there was no actual battle - those who tried to catch Saten Ruiko ran away decisively when they saw Shirai Kuroko and Misaka Mikoto.

===Chapter 26 Saten Ruiko's Confession===

"It's even equipped with smoke bombs, those guys are lucky!" Shirai Heizi said angrily after returning from the unsuccessful pursuit.

Her "space movement" was only about [-] meters away, so when the opponent decisively chose to escape and used smoke bombs, she was escaped by the opponent not long after.

"What happened?" Misaka Mikoto asked hastily.

On the contrary, Saten Ruiko, who was the person involved, didn't look too nervous, and had already returned to her original lively and cheerful attitude.

"Sorry for making you worry..." the girl stuck out her tongue and said playfully.

"Sorry about the size! Those few people just now are all capable, very dangerous!" Shirai Heizi said.She catches a glimpse during the chase——the ones who want to catch Saten Ruiko are the "heroes" who showed their talents underground just now!

All members above level 3 can be said to be quite a powerful force.

"Well, I'm not injured anyway, so don't worry about it." Saten Ruiko said with a smile.

"What's going on?" Misaka Mikoto asked again, "Also, why did you call Xingye for help?"

"Because those people seem to be delinquent boys," Saten Ruiko explained, "so I think it's more convenient to find their boss..."

As for why she was hunted down by unscrupulous groups, Saten Ruiko explained that she overheard their secret plan and was accidentally discovered, which is why she ended up like this.

Half an hour later, Ling Xingye and Misaka and his party met at the [-]th Branch of the Disciplinary Committee.

As "parties" in various senses, Ling Xingye, Misaka Mikoto, and Misaka 10001 must cooperate with the follow-up investigation.

Being able to arrange in the No. [-] Branch, which has more acquaintances, is already the biggest compromise for them.

So even Ling Xingye couldn't refuse.

There is nothing in particular to repeat about the incident itself, Misaka Mikoto's statement is enough.

As for Uluft and Kanzaki Kaori, they both have "legal" entry permits, so there is no problem in speaking out.

It was enough for Ling Xingye to just nod his head in agreement.

And at this time, Misaka Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko are more concerned about what happened to Saten Reiko later.

This cheerful, carefree girl is obviously not good at lying. Just now, Ling Xingye and Baijing Heizi saw at a glance that she did not tell the whole truth about the incident of being attacked just now.

So now we specially close the door and conduct an "interrogation"!

Saten Leiko, who was forced to the corner, had no choice but to turn to Ling Xingye for help, but the latter just shrugged and didn't intend to get involved.

As older seniors, he and Gufa Meiwei sipped tea with peace of mind.

Under coercion and temptation, Saten Ruiko finally revealed the reason for the incident.

"Actually, I noticed it by accident..."

According to Saten Ruiko's statement, after everyone in the underground station was evacuated to the ground, the eight "heroes" were again cheered by the crowd.

But Saten Ruiko noticed——

"I seem to have seen one of them," she said with an uncertain look on her face. "In the last semester, I saw a student from the same school being bullied by delinquents... Among the delinquents at that time, one of them was wearing the same The earrings are exaggerated in shape, so I have a little impression."

Ling Xingye recalled carefully: "Indeed, there is a person wearing earrings."

"But I remember that among those bad guys who asked for pocket money at that time, no one was capable at all!" Saten Leizi said.

Ling Xingye put down the teacup in his hand, and looked over seriously: "Are you sure it's the same person?"

"Not sure." Saten Leizi said quickly, "I just doubted, so I quietly approached to confirm... But I just glanced at it from a distance, and I didn't see the face of the man with the earring at that time clearly, so In the end, I can't be sure!"

"Well, the so-called bad, most of them like to wear some messy accessories, should they meet someone with the same bad taste?" Shirai Heizi commented.

"I thought so too..." Saten Ruiko said, "But when I was about to leave, I suddenly heard their secret plan!"

The girl showed a mysterious expression—as if the urban legend of Amway would be revealed in the next second—she deliberately lowered her voice and said, "They are going to attack someone!"

"Assault?" Gufa Meiwei raised his head abruptly, "It's a crime! It must be severely punished! Saten-san, do you have any more information?"

Saten Leizi laughed dryly: "It's just a possibility... I heard they said they were going to attack a person with space ability..."

Everyone looked at Heizi Shirai together.

"Hmph, are they going to throw themselves into a trap!" Shirai Heizi said disdainfully.

"They spoke very vaguely, so I followed because I was very concerned." Saten Ruiko continued, "In the end, they accidentally found out..."

"Why did they plan to attack Heizi?" Misaka Mikoto asked in confusion, "Did Heizi bring them up when they were underground?"
