Academy City's Puppet Master

At that time, Shokuhou Misaki was a very weak child in every sense except superpowers.

No one expected that Shokuhou Misaki would quickly grow into a girl with exceptionally high "female power".

"I really can't be careless..."

"What can't be careless?" Hearing the mutterings of the people around him, Ling Xingye asked.

"Don't worry about this." Hitomi Shiranui looked up at him, "Where are we going next? Today is the weekend, and the streets will be more lively and crowded."

"Don't worry, I have done my homework." Ling Xingye said confidently.

===Chapter 95 Dating, escape from the encirclement===

Learning from yesterday's lesson, Ling Xingye did enough homework for today's date and made a perfect schedule.

In the morning, I went shopping first, and then went to the university in the fifth school district to watch the opera joint performance-this is an annual event, limited to the comprehensive event of drama clubs, although it is not as good as the Daba Star Festival, but it has as much popularity in the circle as the latter popularity and influence.

Then came lunch, for which Ling Xingye specially entrusted Qifan to book a restaurant for him in the fourth school district.

In the afternoon, depending on the situation, the plan includes the amusement park in the sixth school district, or go to the No.20 school district to enjoy the natural scenery, or go to the No.12 school district to experience the exotic customs...

Of course, Ling Xingye knows that the real world cannot strictly follow the script like the performance on the stage, and accidents are the norm.So this itinerary is only stored in his mind, and it will be adjusted in due course.

Perhaps because of the planning, today's itinerary went very smoothly.Even though more people came out to play because of the weekend, Ling Xingye and Hitomi Shiranui still had a smooth journey, and they hardly encountered congestion or queuing.

"What's wrong? Just now, Xingye looked a little absent-minded." Shiranui looked up at him.

At this time, the two were outside a theater, Shiranui Hitomi was holding the program list in his hand, choosing the play he wanted to watch next.

Because of the needs of street performances, Ling Xingye often goes to watch various theater performances.After getting along for a long time, Hitomi Shiranui also became interested in these things.

The opera joint performance brings together top works and top actors from all drama clubs and professional academies in the entire Academy City. For the audience, how to choose can be said to be quite a tangled matter.

Ling Xingye withdrew his gaze, looked at the program list, and said, "It's nothing, I just feel that today is a bit smooth, and there is no queue here..."

"Isn't it very good?" Hitomi Shiranui said, "It means that Xingxingye's efforts have worked."

"Let's just think so." Ling Xingye smiled helplessly.

Not to mention anything else, Hitomi Shiranui, who has absolute memory ability, probably discovered it a little earlier than himself, right?

Ling Xingye looked around again, and finally confirmed the "strangeness".

Today's major theaters in the fifth school district are full of people, and many popular plays are even hard to get a ticket for.

Only around Ling Xingye and Shiranui Hitomi, the crowd density dropped suddenly—although there were quite a few people, and it looked very lively, but it never became crowded or queued up.

I didn't notice it at first, but after a long time, I can still find the "strangeness".

After paying attention, Ling Xingye quickly discovered that there were many "familiar faces" among the crowd moving around him.

They are all members of the law enforcement team, and some have also been seen in a bad group.

After discovering them, Ling Xingye finally understood why his itinerary has been so smooth since just now.

It's not that he did his homework well, but that someone helped him to do his homework!

There are special people to help them "escort", clear the venue and line up for them in advance.

After the performance was over and they left the venue, the people who were on standby gathered quietly to separate the crowd for Ling Xingye and Hitomi Shiranui, while moving forward quietly.

"It's amazing..." Ling Xingye couldn't help admiring.

"It seems that there is a special action group." Shiranui Hitomi showed the phone screen.

In a chat group, one message after another is being quickly refreshed-the one who is giving orders and directing people to take actions is Qifan's id.

Ling Xingye and Shiranuotong are naturally not in the group, but Shiranuotong has higher authority and can see their chat records directly from the background.

"These guys... like to do this kind of thing." Ling Xingye smiled wryly, "Yesterday, I just asked that guy from Qifan about the latest popular activities and attractions, and asked him to book a hotel... Now it seems that that The guy is taking his mission too seriously! There is no need to do these unnecessary things..."

"It's not bad, as far as the effect is concerned." Hitomi Shiranui smiled, "Also, occasionally I can feel the prestige of Starry Night...although it's in some strange ways."

People in Qifan and the law enforcement team don't know that their "secret operation" has already been exposed, and they are still taking action in full swing-by the way, live broadcast the dating process of their leader.

It wasn't until after lunch that Ling Xingye and Hitomi Shiranui couldn't bear it anymore.

Although I am very grateful for the support of people, neither of them likes this kind of atmosphere.

The whole date was "livestreamed", and I could still watch the "livestream" in real time... What kind of punishment game is this?

It's really embarrassing.

"Xingye, think of a way!" Hitomi Shiranui leaned close to his ear and said softly.

Ling Xingye looked left and right at the passers-by on the street, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

The two temporarily changed their schedule and suddenly went to a nearby shopping mall.

With the help of the suddenly crowded crowd at the entrance, temporarily throw off the "chasing soldiers" behind.

Then head straight to the clothing section.

After 10 minutes, the two changed their outfits and left the shopping center with a wave of people.

Hitomi Shiranui coiled up her hair and put on a golden wig; Ling Xingye also wore a pair of round-rimmed glasses.

The clothes on the two of them were also replaced with the same style of themed jackets - it is a commemorative model of "Academy City" recently launched specially for foreign tourists, which is very popular.

As a result, many people on the street wear the same jacket.The two of them mixed in, just like water droplets entering the ocean, disappearing silently.

Of course, the main reason is probably that Ling Xingye put down his iconic travel bag - it was stored in the shopping mall just now.

The two pretended to be foreign tourists, avoided all the "secret sentries" along the way, and escaped the "encirclement" smoothly.

Hitomi Shiranui, who had experienced the "spy" for a while, was like a child playing a prank, and seemed extremely excited.

"It seems that we have been found missing." Through the background of the chat software, Hitomi Shiranui grasped the first-hand information in real time, "Started to search for us!"

Although I felt a little sorry for them, Ling Xingye still complained: "I really hope they can use this enthusiasm and energy on more meaningful things..."

Since she was pretending to be a foreign tourist, Hitomi Shiranui decided to play from the perspective of this identity.

Ling Xingye naturally supports him unconditionally.

Then, as if they really came to Academy City for the first time, while carefully avoiding the law enforcement team, they wandered around, yelling and taking pictures everywhere.

Because they behaved like other outsiders and lost their iconic travel bags, people from the "group" passed by them at close range several times without being spotted.

So, Hitomi Shiranui played more freely, jokingly dragged Ling Xingye around.

Until the overexcited girl exhausted her physical strength, she supported Ling Xingye's shoulder and panted.

"Are you okay? You almost crossed a school district by running. You really belonged to me." Ling Xingye said.

"It's okay, it's okay... I'll just take a break!"

Ling Xingye stretched out his hand to support her, while raising his head to look around.

At this time, they were in an unfamiliar alley, and because they were running around at will, Ling Xingye didn't know where they were now.

"Where is this place?" Hitomi Shiranui was also a little confused after her breathing recovered, "Why don't you take a look at the map?"

"No, wait for the map or something," Ling Xingye shook her head while protecting her behind her, "It seems that a 'guest' is coming."

As soon as the voice fell, many figures suddenly appeared in all directions.

===Chapter 96 Encountering Bandits===

In every corner around the alley, multiple figures suddenly appeared.

"Wow... Is this kind of development serious?" Hitomi Shiranui complained in a low voice, but there was no tension in her expression.

"Speaking of which, in Academy City, there are too many such remote alleys?" Ling Xingye couldn't help muttering, "This kind of classic drama happens every time in this kind of place..."

When the two were talking in low voices, they saw a few tall men surrounding them, all of them were fierce and full of flesh, wishing to engrave the word "bad guy" on their foreheads, for fear that others would not know.

They wore nondescript metal earrings and necklaces, their hair was dyed in various colors, and their clothes were of the same color scheme, as if they were deliberately emphasizing the "bad" attributes.

"You two don't move! Yes, that's you," one of them said loudly, "Can you understand Japanese? Don't move!"

As he spoke, he pointed at him with the sharpened water pipe in his hand.Several other people also held murder weapons and stepped forward.

Ling Xingye frowned, subconsciously protecting Hitomi Shiranui in his arms.

"You... what are you going to do?" Hitomi Shiranui asked in extremely blunt Japanese with a frightened look.

It's like a foreigner who just learned Japanese.

Ling Xingye looked down in surprise, but saw the girl playfully blinked her left eye at him.

"You two, if you see something you shouldn't see, go over there!"

Another person holding a mace next to him spoke in English, and pointed back to a fork in the road behind him.

Ling Xingye looked down at Hitomi Shiranui again, and after making eye contact, he curled his lips helplessly, and walked obediently with the gang.

Entering the fork, it is a more remote alley.

There were already people inside—four blond-haired, blue-eyed guys covered in various Academy City souvenirs.

These four real tourists are being threatened and blackmailed, and five unscrupulous strong men are staring at them.

"It seems that we have seen the scene of their robbery." Hitomi Shiranui's voice sounded in his mind.

Ling Xingye remained calm, observing the situation carefully.

"Is this bad society under Xingye's subordinates?" Shiranui Hitomi asked again.

Although Ling Xingye dominated the underground world of Academy City and became the group of armed incompetents, that is, the leader of all bad associations; but the real darkness and evil cannot just disappear.

Even if Ling Xingye pulls the original "darkness" into the "light", or at least the "grey" area, there will still be new "darkness".

There is a high probability that this group of people is not a member of the "group" right now?

Ling Xingye shook his head slightly, and replied in his heart: "Of course not, I even wonder if they are ordinary bad guys."

After his observation, although these people were holding simple weapons such as water pipes, short knives, or nailed baseball bats, judging from the occasional outlines of their clothes, it was obvious that there were guns hidden inside.

Furthermore, these people's intentional efforts to pretend to be "bad boys" are a bit too much, and their words and deeds will reveal a bit of well-trained ability, which is really not like street gangsters.
