Academy City's Puppet Master

Hitomi Shiranui walked out of the barber shop, looked at the gradually rising sun, stretched her hands up.

The Academy House is a comprehensive area, equivalent to a mini Academy City.In addition to the five aristocratic girls' schools, there are shopping streets, gymnasiums, recreational facilities, bus centers, and even an independently operating power station.

It was one of the barber shops that Shiranui Hitomi stayed all night last night.

Of course, it is said to be a barber shop, but it is actually a studio for private services only for a small number of customers. Without the introduction of acquaintances, it is impossible for outsiders to even know about this place.

In fact, it was Shokuhou Misaki who recommended Hitomi Shiranui to come here...

Yesterday afternoon, after the two agreed on the battle plan, Shokuhou Misaki fiddled with her curly hair and asked, "Is it really worth it to do this for the starry night?"

"of course."

"But it seems that you haven't made any obvious progress~ It's really worrying~"

"You don't need to meddle in your own business!"

"Don't be so indifferent, I'm kind enough to give you an idea." Shokuhou Misaki said with a smile, "I think Senior Shiranui should try to change his image."

"Huh? Why are you saying this all of a sudden at this time?" Hitomi Shiranui looked at her in surprise.

"Change your mood," Shokuhou Misaki waved his hand, "To be honest, the image of the class leader with black and straight is no longer popular. If you want to attract Xingye's attention, you should at least change your hairstyle!"

"Well, I recommend a store that you often go to..." Saying that, Shokuhou Misaki took out a membership card?

Although full of doubts, Hitomi Shiranui finally accepted her recommendation.

As a result, the next day came...

"Forget it, when Xingye is rescued, just treat it as a surprise for him." She said confidently.

Pulling himself together, Hitomi Shiranui stepped forward.

Although it has changed the shape, it doesn't look like much has changed.

All the strands of hair were hidden in the hat on the head, and it was not obvious what new hairstyle had been changed.

As soon as he took a few steps, he saw Fanfeng Junzi approaching, followed by a barrel-shaped robot.

"Good morning, Shiranui-senpai." Junko Fanfeng greeted politely, "I'm sorry, Her Ladyship is resting, so she asked me to see you off."

Hitomi Shiranui nodded. Junko Fanfeng participated in the entire battle meeting yesterday. Although the content of the core "brain meeting" part is not clear, Shokuhou Misaki gave her full responsibility for the specific implementation.

"Good morning, thank you for your hard work."

"You have won the prize." Junzi Fanfeng said, "The action has already begun. Is there anything else you need to prepare?"

"Help me find a car."

"It's ready." Fanfeng Junzi said, "Also, please bring this."

She pointed to the barrel robot beside her.

"This is?"

"Although it looks like a sweeping robot, it is actually a product of the 'Hubrian Robotics Development Company'. If Master Xingye is not around, it can at least play a certain role as it is also the work of a puppeteer."

Hitomi Shiranui looked at the barrel-shaped robot: "Lucun's thing...is it reliable?"

"Don't worry, Misaka-san hacked its operating system, and now it is completely under your command!"

Hitomi Shiranui popped out a data cable with her fingers and inserted it into the data port on the back of the robot.

Ten seconds later, the barrel-shaped robot suddenly transformed into a two-meter-tall humanoid robot.

"Very good!" Hitomi Shiranui nodded in satisfaction.

……

When Hitomi Shiranui arrived at the "Quantum Calculus Research Center" in the fifth school district, it was almost ten o'clock.

But the situation in the surrounding streets is even worse. Various accidents and traffic jams have intensified, even affecting the traffic of most of the fifth school district.

I don't know when, a new "urban legend" suddenly became popular on the underground forums of Academy City.

——The world's only quantum computer "Tree Diagram Designer" that was destroyed before was developed by the "Quantum Calculus Research Center".

Although the "Tree Diagram Designer" and its core have been destroyed, it is said that its original design drawings and debugging materials are backed up at the research center.

As a result, countless spies and "technology hunters" are ready to move.

Long before Shiranui Hitomi arrived, many people took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the research center, trying to investigate the truth of the rumors.

Hitomi Shiranui lowered the brim of her hat and walked towards the center of the chaos with the barrel robot.

Due to the many accidents, there are also many guard robots at the scene-in fact, they are bucket-sweeping robots, so Hitomi Shiranui and her robot mixed in are not inconspicuous at all.

Although the "Quantum Calculus Research Center" is heavily guarded, and there are guards from the "Shadow Troop" comparable to the Hound Troops, it cannot withstand the various riots that suddenly broke out today.

And the spies who sneaked in in the early stage to try to steal the information of the "tree diagram designer" have already involved most of their attention.

Therefore, Hitomi Shiranui's infiltration was almost effortless.

Occasionally, I met one or two men in black, and I was immediately knocked down by the transforming robot.

With the information obtained by Haruka Toyama's investigation, Hitomi Shiranui knows the layout of the rooms here and the arrangements for the patrol personnel like the back of his hand.

The enemy didn't know that their defense had already been seen clearly by the "Prophet", so naturally they would not deliberately make changes.

So Hitomi Shiranui went straight to the basement where Ling Xingye was imprisoned.

"Go through the sixth door, which is the elevator leading to the underground area..."

Suddenly, she paused, then turned around slowly.

At some point behind him, an old man in a white coat appeared.

Through the memories of Toyama Haruka and others, Shiranui Hitomi recognized the identity of the other party at a glance—it was Kihara Chime himself!

"It's finally coming out, I'm worth waiting here for a long time." Kihara Chime said with a smile.

Shiranui Hitomi didn't have much panic on her expression, she didn't expect the combat operation to be smooth sailing from the very beginning.

"Since the little prophet came the day before yesterday, the old man has guessed that this moment will come."

"You already knew I was coming?"

"Based on your ability and your relationship with Ling Xingye, it's not difficult to guess that you are the last mastermind of this series of events—"Memory Construction" Hitomi Shiranui." Kihara Chime said confidently, "Shooting east and west, driving the tiger away Wolf, the little girl's calculations are good, but it's a pity that it's useless in front of the old man."

Every time he said a word, Shiranuo Tong's face became gloomy.

Kihara Chime chuckled: "You must know the old man's real name and ability, so I said bluntly——If you want to deceive the old man, you are still far behind!"

"Well, if that's the case..." Hitomi Shiranui closed her eyes and sighed heavily, "That can only rely on strength!"

He raised his head again and opened his eyes, a pair of pupils shining like silver.

Raising his hand to take off the peaked cap, a head of hair fell down like a waterfall, starting from the root of the hair, the original black color faded little by little, reflecting a silvery luster under the dim light.

Seeing Kihara Chime's expression of surprise that he couldn't hide, Hitomi Shiranui laughed.

"It seems that at least about my identity - I have indeed successfully deceived you, Kihara Mari!"

Hitomi Shiranui popped out the silk thread with five fingers on her right hand, and connected it to the barrel robot.

The latter changed into a human form with a "click", stood in front of the master, and assumed a fighting posture.

"Legion of the Moon, Baiyin Shiranui, please give me your advice!"

===Chapter 23: Hitomi's Puppet===

The "Baiyin" organization has a large scale, but only a small number of puppet masters actually have the name "Baiyin".

All the silver puppet masters - except for the Ling family squad outside the system - were all assigned to the eight legions.

"Wind, cloud, snow, moon, flowers, birds, fish and insects" - the eight major legions under the jurisdiction of the Silver Organization.

Among them, the "Flower Legion" is Hua 21 and the flowers led by it.It can be regarded as a solo army in a sense.

From this, one can also imagine the power of Shen Huayi, the original body of his gene.

As the first organization to click on the "cloning technology" and successfully apply it, "Baiyin" certainly couldn't just copy Shen Huayi.

——"Moon", one of the eight legions, is also a legion composed of replicants.

Of course, unlike the Army of Flowers formed by a single person and all members are "Shen Huayi", "Yue" is taking the elite route, with a small number of elites.

The official members of the "Legion of the Moon" are less than fifty people, but they are all outstanding silver puppet masters in the past. After the main body died in battle, they were made replicas.

Thanks to the preliminary research materials for the formation of the "Flower Army", the success rate of the "Moon" series of clones has been greatly improved, and the quality is satisfactory enough.

Although it is impossible to reach the strength level of the Primarch, compared with the general silver puppet master, it is undoubtedly better and stronger, and can quickly supplement the lack of combat power caused by the death of the Primarch.

For the automatic puppet of the enemy, the "resurrection" of a powerful enemy is also a powerful deterrent.

Although the Silver Organization has never concealed the existence of the "Legion of the Moon", as long as you know "Silver", you will know about this Legion... But there are very few people who know the existence of the "Silver Organization", so it is impossible for ordinary people to know These things.

And Kihara Chime is one of the few outside insiders.

Just because he knows the existence of "Yue", he can be sure that Hitomi Shiranui in front of him is unlikely to lie.

"You don't have the blood of silver!" Even so, Kihara Chime, who was suspicious by nature, still pointed out the problem. After research, he was able to see the special fluctuation of the blood of silver.

"Those who have the blood of silver may not necessarily be silver, and those who do not have the blood of silver may not necessarily be silver." Hitomi Shiranui said, "Magic and superpowers cannot coexist, and we can't be sure before we come here. Coexist with superpowers."

The "Legion of the Moon" is an army of clones. For them, the body is actually a replaceable part.

In order to sneak into the campus city, it is not impossible to send someone to replace the body of an ordinary girl...

"What's more, I have silver blood, but it's relatively thin." Hitomi Shiranui cut the skin of her fingertips with a silk thread, and a drop of blood leaked out, and then wiped it casually, and the wound disappeared.

Kihara Chime suddenly shook his head: "Really, I have no reason to tell you this here. It doesn't matter if you are Baiyin or not, as long as you get rid of it."

"You mean that?" Hitomi Shiranui sneered.

The humanoid robot beside him suddenly flew out, and when it returned, it was already carrying two men in black in its hands.

——Just when Shiranui Hitomi was talking to Kihara Chime just now, the two quietly approached behind her, intending to sneak attack.

Hitomi Shiranui disdainfully threw them at Chihara Chime's feet: "You can only rely on these useless subordinates—as long as you don't fall into your trap, you actually have no fighting power at all!"

"So," Hitomi Shiranui looked at the robot puppet beside him, "Just such a temporary replacement puppet is enough."
