Academy City's Puppet Master

"Who are you?"

"Ling Qianji."

Misaka Mikoto was taken aback, confused and disappointed at the same time: "Uh, thank you..."

"Don't worry about it, it's your responsibility."

At this time, Misaka Mikoto suddenly noticed that the silvery white in his pupils was fading.

He also put up a finger in front of his mouth: "don't tell him for now."

"he?"

"The other me—Ling Xingye."

===Chapter 86 Future Progressive ===

"Starry night?" Misaka Mikoto looked at him in surprise, "Are you also Ling Xingye?"

She didn't get an answer, she just felt that the boy who was hugging her suddenly sank, but she had to support her hard so as not to fall down.

But Ling Xingye lost his strength for only a moment, and soon he regained his footing.

"Wow," Ling Xingye sighed immediately, "I didn't expect my second personality to be so powerful...it's simply unscientific!"

He knew the cause and effect, and remembered everything that happened around him, including Misaka Mikoto's state and reaction.

But only the memory of his second personality is missing.

"Miqin, were you talking to me just now? I'm sorry, that's just the emergency battle mode I set up, just like a simple robot, without the ability to have complex conversations."

"what?"

Misaka Mikoto's eyes widened, and she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't speak.

After a brief silence, the two realized their current state.

Although the surrounding neighborhood was already in a mess, the two of them were unharmed-only the clothes on their bodies suffered.

Misaka Mikoto, whose whole body was bathed in thunder and lightning, was wearing a thunder and lightning feather robe. All the original clothes were destroyed by the violent electric current, leaving nothing behind.

Ling Xingye wasn't that exaggerated, but it wasn't much better.He was the key target of the lightning strike, his body was almost blown up, and his clothes became a dilapidated fishing net outfit.

"Ah, sorry." Ling Xingye hurriedly wanted to let her go.

But Misaka Mikoto put her arms around her chest and got closer to Ling Xingye.

"Don't move!" She said sharply, regardless of her shyness, "help me find a dress."

Ling Xingye had no choice but to act as a human-shaped cover temporarily, while looking around, looking for clothes that could be used to cover his body.

But there are only ruins around, where are the clothes?

At this time, seeing that the matter had been settled, Sogiita Gunba turned around and left in a cool manner.

"I found something extraordinary. If I have the chance, I really want to fight him."

Before he finished speaking, he found that the way ahead was blocked by several silk threads.

"Excuse me, borrow your coat." Ling Xingye's voice came along the silk thread, "It looks like you don't really need it anyway..."

After putting on her coat, Misaka Mikoto took a few steps back and opened the distance.

"Thank you, Xingye." She first thanked Ling Xingye earnestly, and then looked Ling Xingye up and down carefully, "How do you feel now? Do you want to go to the hospital for a checkup?"

Ling Xingye looked unharmed, but Misaka Mikoto knew how he had been hurt, so she couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"I feel pretty good now." Ling Xingye looked down at his body, "But I really need to check it out when I have time..."

It's not that I'm worried about the injury, but I want to understand my extremely strong self-healing ability.

At this time, Misaka 10001 hurried over.

"Master! Onee-sama! Misaka is very happy that the two of them are safe and sound."

It turned out that Misaka 10001 rushed over here immediately after her "firewall" failed and was driven out of Misaka Mikoto's consciousness.

She knew that Xingye was also here, and she specially brought his spare mobile phone.

——Exposed to such a strong electromagnetic environment, Ling Xingye's mobile phone was damaged and lost its function long ago.

The caring Misaka 10001 even bought clothes for Misaka Mikoto on the way.

Ling Xingye thanked Misaka 10001 and took the phone.

Contact Qifan and copy all the original mobile phone number and data to the new mobile phone.

Then immediately, I received a call from Hitomi Shiranui.

"Xingye, are you okay!" Hitomi Shiranui's anxious voice came from the receiver.

"I'm fine, don't worry."

Hearing his voice, the other party was obviously relieved, and then he continued calmly: "Just now, A Yao suddenly had a high fever and fainted, unable to participate in the following activities. She mentioned something before sending her to the doctor, telling you to be careful... ..."

Ling Xingye said: "High fever? Why did you suddenly fall ill at this time?"

"I suspect it's because of the sudden increase in ability." Hitomi Shiranui analyzed, "Ayao may have foreseen the distant future, or upgraded to level 4, and his brain could not cope with the sudden surge in computing power, which caused symptoms such as high fever. "

"When I finish dealing with the matter at hand, let's go to the hospital to visit her." Ling Xingye said.

Both him and Hitomi Shiranui are rare cases where the ability level has been raised from level 3 to level 4.Maybe it can help Yuanshan Haruka who encounters a similar situation.

……

At the same time, Huberian Robotics Development Co., Ltd.

Kumiko Yanaka couldn't help asking, seeing Lu Cun busy in front of a bunch of screens and instruments.

"What happened just now? What did you find?"

Lu Cun did not intend to answer, and was still adjusting the instrument continuously.

After a long time, when Kumiko Yanaka was about to lose patience and turn away, Lu Cun finally spoke.

"Confirmed, someone restarted the 'Fantasy Master' system just now." Lu Cun stared at the screen in ecstasy, "Maybe it's because of this..."

Just a few hours ago, Yuan Shanyao was invited to Huberian Robot Development Co., Ltd.

——In the name of "assisting in the development of a new generation of robot control systems", the company applied to Changdian Shangji Academy for student Yuan Shanyao to join in the research.

Today is the time for approval.Although it happened to be during the Daihasei Festival, the secretary Kumiko Taniaka made an appointment with Haruka Toyama to meet first.

Lucun has indeed prepared a whole set of research and development projects, and it has indeed gone through the entire process according to the regulations-at most, it has only "passed the back door" to speed up the progress of the process.

This is actually the usual practice of many powerful companies and research institutes.

So, all the way to Lucun's office, Yuan Shanyao didn't find anything unusual.

Then, Lu Cun got straight to the point and asked directly: "Student Yuan Shanyao, do you know 'Fantasy Royal Hand'?"

"Facing the Prophet, I'll just say it straight—" Lu Cun continued in one breath, "I hope you can become the core of this system."

"At that time, your ability will be improved, and it is not impossible to even become level 5."

Yuan Shanyao was stunned for a moment.

At this time, she suddenly raised her head, the pupils of her eyes lost focus, as if she was looking into a distant void.

"Are you okay?" Kumiko Yanaka asked quickly.

Yuan Shanyao didn't respond, just stared forward blankly.

Then suddenly, she seemed to come to her senses, and a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.

She looked around and finally locked her eyes on somewhere downstairs.

After watching for a while, Yuan Shanyao nodded, but got up and left directly.

Kumiko Yanaka tried to stop her, but was ignored.Yuan Shanyao walked out of the company as if no one was around.

Afterwards, Lu Cun also looked thoughtful, came to the laboratory on the first floor downstairs, and started busy work.

"Hey, I tried my best to get her here, what should I do next?" Kumiko Yanaka asked, "Invite her over again?"

"Okay, your mission has been completed." Lu Cun said, "She has agreed."

"Agreed?" Kumiko Yanaka asked in surprise, "Why didn't I know? When?"

"in the future."

===Chapter Four Hundred and Eighty Seven Evening Commotion===

At noon, Ling Xingye hurried to the hospital and joined Hitomi Shiranui who was already waiting at the door.

Just now, after confirming that Misaka Miqin was fine, Ling Xingye took her and Misaka 10001 to the nearest security branch, and left after changing into complete clothes.

Seeing Ling Xingye approaching, Shi Zhihuotong hurried up to meet him, and looked up and down carefully.

After confirming that everything was as usual and that there was no injury on his body, Hitomi Shiranui heaved a sigh of relief and showed a reassuring expression.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Ling Xingye said, "But the situation is more complicated, I'll talk about it later. Let's go in first, how is Yuan Shanyao's situation?"

"I just came here too, but I've contacted the doctor, and it doesn't seem to be a serious problem." Hitomi Shiranui said.

Saying that, the two walked into the hospital and came to Yuan Shanyao's ward.

The girl was lying quietly on the hospital bed, her breathing was steady, she didn't have any treatment equipment on her body, she seemed to be just falling asleep normally.

When they came, there was already someone in the ward, but it was Yuan Shanyao's friend Mei Lilu.

She rushed over as soon as she learned that her best friend was hospitalized, still wearing the track suit from the competition.

"Is it really all right?" Ling Xingye asked softly.

"Yes, the doctor said she was just asleep." Mei Lilu said, "I heard that she will be transferred to the internal hospital of Changdian School of Computer Science and Technology for a comprehensive physical examination."

Ling Xingye nodded, and exited the ward with Hitomi Shiranui to find a doctor.

The general manager of this hospital is that Dr. Frog, who is also an acquaintance of Ling Xingye.
