Academy City's Puppet Master

"How is it possible!" Kanzaki scolded excitedly, "How could I make fun of Index's matter!"

"...then there is no doubt that you have been deceived!" Hitomi Shiranui calmly concluded.

"Hey, do you know what you're talking about!" Stiyl's suppressed angry voice came from beside him, and the temperature around him suddenly rose, as if a flame could be ignited at any time.

Sprites silently stepped forward and stood in front of Hitomi Shiranui.

"Everyone calm down, listen to Shiranui-san's explanation first!" Kamijou Touma jumped out quickly, pointing his right hand in the direction of Stiyl, ready to intercept his flames at any time.

At the same time, Kamijou Touma looked hopefully at Hitomi Shiranui: "Hurry up and explain it! As long as you know the cause, it will not be difficult to find a cure!"

Hitomi Shiranui just paused for a moment, and was not affected by Stiyl.So she continued: "First of all, your description is full of loopholes and contradictions. One hundred and three thousand magic books stored in the memory occupy more than 15.00% of the brain capacity... The remaining [-]% capacity can only store one Years of memory?"

Hearing the sarcasm in her tone, Kanzaki couldn't help repeating: "As I said just now, Index is a person with absolute memory ability, she will never forget, so everything around her will be taken care of by her in every detail." keep in mind..."

Hitomi Shiranui raised her hand to interrupt her: "No need to explain, I know what absolute memory ability is - because I am also a person with absolute memory ability!"

"What!" Except for Ling Xingye, Yueyong Xiaomeng, and Index who was in a coma, everyone else present exclaimed at the same time.

"So, I can tell you with certainty that the statement just now is simply nonsense!"

"Your ability is absolute memory?" Kanzaki asked, still unable to believe it.

Hitomi Shiranui shook her head: "No, I'm a level 4 powerhouse 'memory builder', and absolute memory is my inborn trait, and it's not really a super power. You know, although it's rare, there are always absolute memory abilities in the world who?

"—and occasionally sufferers of a brain disorder known as 'hypermemory'."

"Do you have any evidence?" Steele asked.

"That's right, Shiranui does have absolute memory ability, and he is also an expert in memory. He often gives lectures to introduce ways to exercise memory." Teacher Yueyong Xiaomeng stood up to testify, "Teacher also learned a lot from your lectures. Things, your courses are very popular among our teachers circle."

Indeed, the adults in the city's schools are ordinary people without superpowers.In this case, first-class memory is probably the "ability" they are relatively easy to master.Many teachers will intentionally exercise their memory skills - which can be regarded as a kind of brain development.

Hitomi Shiranui smiled slightly, looked around the room, pointed to a book on the small bookshelf and said, "I happen to have read that book before, do you want me to retell a passage? You can choose chapters at will..."

Kanzaki stepped forward and pulled out the thick blue publication—it was a fairly unpopular academic monograph, something that almost no one except professional researchers would read.

Kanzaki, who is a magician, of course couldn't understand what was said in it.

But she opened a page at random, and after reporting the page number, Hitomi Shiranui was able to recite it immediately, and the content was exactly the same!

Even if you have read this book specifically, you will not remember it so firmly.

After reciting a few passages, Shiranui Tong looked back at Ling Xingye, who was stunned for a moment, and then continued to recite it—also accurately!

"Wait!" Misaka Mikoto yelled, "Could it be that Xingye also has absolute memory ability."

Kanzaki and Stiyl looked at him strangely, and suddenly felt that this absolute memory ability is too cheap...

"No," Ling Xingye stopped, shook his head and denied, "My memory ability was acquired through training—specifically, it was the memory palace that Tong helped me build."

"Memory Palace?" Kanzaki and Stiyl asked.

"It's a method of memory, the trick." Teacher Yueyong Xiaomeng explained, "It probably means to build your own 'palace' in your mind, abstract the information that needs to be remembered, and turn it into a three-dimensional graphic, as a building. Materials to build a palace. Afterwards, analyze each brick and tile, and you will be able to read the content of the original memory."

"It is said that building a memory palace is also the special skill of Shiranui-senpai, and many people in our school are trying to learn it." Misaka Mikoto also said.

Kanzaki Kaori and Stiyl no longer doubted - after all, other than Kamijou Touma had no reason to deceive them.

In this way, it seems that this girl named Shiranui really has the same absolute memory ability as Index!

===Chapter 45 Diagnostic conclusion===

Hearing the compliments from Misaka Mikoto and Tsukiyong Xiaomoe, Hitomi Shiranui shyly said, "That's just my opinion, and it doesn't represent the entire School of Memory Palace!"

"Don't be too modest, Shiranui, you are already a recognized expert in this field."

Ling Xingye thought for a while, and added: "At the same time, with the help of Tong's ability 'memory construction', she also helped me build a palace. So as long as I am willing, in a sense, I will also have absolute memory ability."

Hitomi Shiranui clapped her hands and focused everyone's attention: "Okay, can you trust me now? Then I will continue to explain..."

"This child is only thirteen or fourteen years old." She stroked Index's silver hair tenderly. "I don't know how the original magic book exists, and I don't know how she put a hundred and thirty thousand books together. Reading them all... is an impossible task in terms of time."

"There is no doubt about this..." Stiyl said, "The original magic books have their own uniqueness, and not all of them need to be 'read'. Moreover, we have also used magic methods."

Back then when the original magic books were collected all over the world, Stiyl was by Index's side, so he knew it very well.

Hitomi Shiranui nodded: "Okay, I admit the existence of those [-] magic books. But I don't believe that the contents of these books alone can fill a person's memory—don't underestimate human beings. strength!"

"The original magic book is not an ordinary book in your impression..." Steele emphasized.

"I know, although it is not a magic book, and the number is not that many, but I have read and memorized more than [-] books." Shiranui Hitomi casually reported an amazing number, "Based on my intuition In terms of feeling, the information in these books will not put pressure on my brain and memory at all-for us with absolute memory ability, everything we have experienced cannot be forgotten, so in other words, it does not matter what is remembered .”

Kanzaki still shook his head in denial: "No, you don't know what the real scriptures are. They can easily destroy a person's mind and soul, and they even have autonomous souls..."

Hitomi Shiranui closed her eyes and thought for a moment: "Well, I can't imagine that kind of thing... Then let's start with the last flaw. You mentioned that this child's memory capacity is only about 15.00% left, and it can only store One year's memory, so it is necessary to clear the memory of the previous year every year..."

"That's right! This is obviously abnormal!" Kamijou Touma reacted immediately, and immediately shouted, "15.00% is only a one-year quota, so even without those magic books in mind, Index can't last seven years." Years, right? It’s impossible to think about it, you can find it with a random search on the Internet, there must be people with long-lived absolute memory ability, and the student Shiranui in front of us has already exceeded the limit of seven years!”

"Well, the memory capacity of the brain is just a metaphor." Teacher Yueyong Xiaomeng said, "The so-called percentage occupied is a rumor with no scientific basis at all, and it is a pseudoscience. The human brain and memory are very complicated, and there is no It is not a simple division of storage areas like a computer hard disk..."

"After listening for so long, the teacher probably understands what the focus of your argument is. Regarding this, the teacher also thinks that Shiranui is more reasonable."

Stiyl was speechless and scratched his head irritably.

Kanzaki Kaori seemed to have shaken, looking back and forth between Index and Hitomi Shiranui.

"As expected, it is not necessary to delete Index's memory!" Kamijou Touma said happily.
