Academy City's Puppet Master

As for Ling Changyun, he had the intention to start the battle again, but he looked at Bai Yinxiao who was standing in the middle of the battlefield with apprehension.

This petite woman has one of the best attack abilities in the world.

Although under non-assassination conditions, Ling Changyun was sure that she would not be able to make the second move, but he was not fully sure that he could stop her one-shot lore.

Like Huagumi, Bai Yinxiao appeared here as a "referee" and "witness" to observe the war.

——But her attitude is not neutral at all.

Ling Changyun looked at Bai Yinxiao, she was the one who made a strong appearance just now, interrupting the battle with one blow.

And after announcing the start of the war, they refused to retreat, making it clear that they wanted to continue to stop the fighting.

It seems to be from the perspective of neutrality and justice, but at this moment, this kind of "fairness" is undoubtedly more beneficial to Lu Xuyang, who is in a weak position.

It's no wonder that Bai Yinxiao can be said to be rescued by Ling Xingye, so of course he will lean towards him.

This is where Ling Changyun made a mistake - he didn't expect that she would stay in Academy City and not return to China.

For this war, Ling Changyun can be said to have planned for a long time, taking all aspects into consideration.

To be honest, he just wanted a witness representing the headquarters of the "Silver" organization, and he didn't need any "referee".

There is no need for "referees" to help, as long as they can remain neutral.

As far as Ling Changyun knew, Ling Xingye had just become "Silver" not long ago, and he had almost no connections within the organization.And Lu Xuyang is even an "outsider", he just knows a little more.

Their only support is Baiyin Yao.

As for Baiyin Yao, he just couldn't get away recently.

As for the others, it doesn't matter to Ling Changyun, anyone can be the "referee".

Even... the flower group is said to have a grudge against Ling Xingye.

But unexpectedly, the leader of the flower group resident in Academy City turned out to be a Xibei product, and their attitude towards Ling Xingye didn't seem to be very strict.

In addition, there was an unexpected Bai Yinxiao here, abruptly disrupting Ling Changyun's plan.

"Cough," Commander Hua coughed and explained, "According to the rules announced just now, you'd better choose a remote place to start the war—you've been blocking traffic for a long time."

"Go." Ling Changyun glanced at her, turned and left.

He took Ling Chanjuan back to the car, and looked at Ling Xingye again: "Forgive you for now, you won't be so lucky next time, Ling Changye!"

Afterwards, Li Qiongying and Wang Changlei also left together.

Seeing them walking away, Lu Xuyang finally let out a long sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Bai Yinxiao and Commander Hua also bid farewell and left.

"There are only so many who can help you." Commander Hua finally said, "Next, I wish you good luck."

The road suddenly became empty.

Ling Xingye rubbed the center of his brows with a headache, and then used his mobile phone to ask Heitie Yihui to drive to pick them up.

"Xuyang, where should we go next?" Lu Feifei asked, "I just arrived here, and I don't have a place to stay yet."

"I booked a hotel, but I'm afraid it's not safe now?" Lu Xuyang smiled wryly.

Then she looked at Ling Xingye again: "I don't know if Xingye's house can accommodate the two of us..."

"Stop joking, Sister Yang." Ling Xingye said helplessly, "It's not like you don't know the apartment I live in..."

"Anyway, let's go to the headquarters first." Seeing the car coming, Ling Xingye said, "Misaka, what are you looking for? Let's go together."

Misaka 10001 responded, and then looked back, after all, she couldn't find her elder sister.

……

Back at the command center in the speakeasy, Ling Xingye brought a few people to a living room.

After ordering lunch by the way, I closed the door tightly.

"Let's sort out the situation now," Ling Xingye said first, "If there is anything else I don't know, please tell me all at once."

"Uh, in fact, my sister is also at a loss about this so-called civil war in the Ling family." Lu Xuyang smiled wryly, "To be honest, I was still worried that you, Xingye, were also on the side of senior brother..."

"Don't worry about this, senior brother and I are rivals now." Ling Xingye said, "If you know about his weakness, please tell me, stop covering it up."

"It feels like the master has suddenly become bolder. He was obviously afraid of the big brother before. Misaka tried to complain about the change in master's attitude."

Ling Xingye rubbed the center of his brows: "Forced by the situation, after confirming that I want to be an enemy with the senior brother, I feel refreshed all of a sudden."

"Master can win? Misaka asked."

"No."

"Huh? Then why..." Lu Feifei said in surprise.

"Being beaten unilaterally is not the same as being beaten when you lose a match."

"So negative!" Lu Xuyang blurted out.

Lu Feifei nodded with emotion: "I can understand, after all, senior brother is indeed very strong!"

The bartender knocked on the door and brought a late lunch.

Several people were not in the mood to eat, and after hastily filling their stomachs, they continued to discuss countermeasures.

"Let's not mention the countermeasures," Ling Xingye said, "I want to make sure, what is the attitude of the second senior brother and the third senior sister?"

Both Lu Xuyang and Lu Feifei shook their heads.

"The two of them have been unable to contact, and they are not even sure if they know what is going on here."

"That is to say, the worst result is that they also join the senior brother and junior junior sister?" Ling Xingye said.

At this time, Misaka 10001 suddenly raised his hand.

"Excuse me, Xingye... How many brothers and sisters does the master have? And your names seem to be contradictory, which is a bit of a headache. Please explain if you can... Ah, Misaka made such a request!"

Ling Xingye thought about it carefully, nodded and said: "Indeed, from the perspective of outsiders, there will indeed be misunderstandings."

Ling Xingye simply brought a pen and paper, and began to introduce while talking and writing.

"First of all, if you don't count Sister Yang and Junior Sister Ling Chanjuan, there are a total of four men, three women and seven people who are formally apprentices.

"According to the tradition of the teacher's school, the class master and master gave us stage names, which means 'Grass grows and Yingfei'. Boys are the elder generation—elder brother Ling Changyun, second brother Ling Changfeng, fourth brother Wang Changlei, and me Ling long night.

"Girls are from the Filipino generation - Third Senior Sister Yu Wufei, Fifth Senior Sister Lu Yufei, Sixth Senior Sister Li Xuefei."

Lu Feifei went on to say: "As for 'Lu Feifei' and 'Li Qiongying', and 'Ling Xingye', they are our real names. Senior brother and second senior brother are orphans raised by Master, so they only have stage names."

Misaka 10001 nodded: "That is to say, the current power ratio between the two sides is three to two, and our side is at a disadvantage. Considering the reason why Xingye and the senior brother can't get along, there is a high probability that the second senior brother with a similar position will become an opponent. Only Third Senior Sister Yu Wufei is fighting for..."

"That's the scariest situation," Lu Feifei said, "If the senior brother and the second senior brother are on the opposite side..."

===Chapter Five Hundred and Fiftieth A Lot of Troublesome Things===

"This is really too bad..." Ling Xingye sighed with a heavy heart, as if thinking of the scene where he was against two senior brothers at the same time.

"Don't be discouraged, I will help you." Misaka 10001 reached out and patted his shoulder with a confident look.

"Thank you, but outsiders can't participate in the battle, right?" Ling Xingye looked at her and said.

"No," Lu Xuyang shook his head, "The previous rules were very clear, 'in principle' no other people are allowed to be involved, and Misaka-san has actually been involved; what's more, Hua also specifically mentioned—— We are careful that the power of Academy City will intervene in this matter. From another perspective, it can be understood that the intrusion of superpowers is also allowed."

Lu Xuyang continued: "To be honest, I am looking forward to Xingye. After all, you are the leader of a big power now, and you can borrow a lot of power."

Ling Xingye shook his head again and again: "I don't intend to let the group of armed incompetents get deeply involved in this war. And they don't have the ability to participate in a battle of this size, do they?"

Then he remembered the information he received yesterday: "By the way, Senior Sister Feifei, did you come alone? I remember that the silver puppet master will always have a partner when he is out in action, right? I heard that there is also a senior brother who can use the flame ability A female ability user, but I didn't see her just now."

"Really?" Lu Feifei looked blank, "It's the first time I know that senior brother has a partner. Unlike the usual silver puppet masters, we are not bound by the 'iron law', and there is no taboo against killing people. So there is no need to find a partner to protect yourself.”

"That is to say, can we really only rely on a few of us?" Ling Xingye sighed again, "And I have a lot of things on hand recently, so all kinds of troubles have come together..."

Just as Ling Xingye was feeling emotional, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Boss, look at this!" Qifan shouted faintly from outside the door, seeming very urgent.

Ling Xingye opened the door with an expression of "Trouble is indeed coming".

Qifan almost rushed in: "Sorry for disturbing you!"

He hastily greeted several other girls.Then he stuffed the tablet in his hand in front of Ling Xingye's eyes.

"Boss, look at this quickly, something is wrong!"

"What's wrong?" Ling Xingye asked as he took the tablet and opened a little distance to see the content on it.

"Isn't that boy Tsuchyumen investigating the talent dispatch incident this morning? He said he was going to search the other party's residence further. When I sent someone there, the apartment was actually smashed down!" Qi Fan spoke quickly He said, "But our people found five banknotes in the microwave oven, and by reading the chips inside the coins, we found the intelligence!"

——A sniper hired from the outside, the industry's top sand disc density; a laboratory weapon "msr-001 magnetic sniper gun" obtained through a special channel; and a plan to snipe the most important ship!

"Ofunune Monaka is one of the directors of the governing council, the ruler at the top of Academy City." Shiban introduced, "Someone is planning to assassinate such a VIP!"

Ling Xingye looked at the information and said, "Calm down, Qifan. I remember that you are not the kind of person who cares about the city's high-level rulers?"

For the group of armed incompetents who have been at the bottom of Academy City for a long time, the high-ranking governing council has nothing to do with them, and it can even be said to be two different creatures.

To put it bluntly, if a director is really killed, it will only be regarded as the content of the after-dinner chat by the armed and incompetent.Taking pleasure in other people's misfortune is considered a very moral performance.

In fact, even Ling Xingye himself didn't feel much about this information.

The only member of the general council he has dealt with is Chairman Aleister, and he doesn't know Ofune Mosaka at all.

Moreover, every director attaches great importance to his own safety and has adopted various strict security measures.

Ling Xingye didn't think that the simple method of "sniping" could kill a director.

"It's different!" Qifan said quickly, "Ofunune Monaka is different from the other directors. She is a good person who is completely close to the people. She often takes to the streets to interact with students cordially, and the defense force around her is only the minimum level specified. , can be said to be the most convenient target for assassination!"

"There is such a weird director?" Ling Xingye was surprised.

No, it's not that the pro-ship is the most weird thing, but it's too normal, but it seems a bit strange in the group of the governing council.

"Many people have been taken care of by her. If she really dies, Academy City will definitely be in chaos!" Qifan said.

Seeing Qifan's excited look, Ling Xingye immediately understood that he was probably among the people who were taken care of.

And now that the group of armed incompetents is unified, the "Law Enforcement Team" has officially become a semi-official institution of Academy City, and it is also responsible for dealing with such terrorist attacks.
