Academy City's Puppet Master

After two days, there have been more than ten casualties, and there are also missing persons of the same scale.

This made Ling Xingye extremely annoyed and guilty.

Ling Xingye knew every member of the law enforcement team, knew their names, where they lived, and what they liked and hated...

Although all the information was forcibly memorized by absolute memory ability, compared with those strangers who did not know each other at all, the members of the law enforcement team could already be regarded as "acquaintances".

Every sacrifice of a person is like a thorn in his heart.

Night fell again, and it was time for the law enforcement team to become active again.

"Qifan," Ling Xingye hadn't closed his eyes for three days, his eyes were bloodshot, "Cancel all actions and let everyone enter the shelter."

Qifan stopped working and stuffed him with a cup of coffee.

"Take a break, Xingye. Just leave it to me here."

"No!" Ling Xingye shook his head, "The enemy will still attack, and we will still suffer casualties. All the members of the flower group and Sister Yao have gone out, and they will not be able to come back until tomorrow. I am the only one who can deal with those 'Silver 0'!"

"Calm down, Xingye." Qifan said, "You also know that they are enemies—this is a war, how can there be no death in war?"

"They are my enemies! I can't let other irrelevant people be implicated!"

"That's our enemy, you are our leader, Xingye!" Qifan pressed his shoulder, "Our 'armed incapacitated group' is now a whole, and the law enforcement team is the sharp knife and fist of this organization! With the enemy Fighting is our job."

"Xingye," Qifan rarely used the tone of a senior in front of Ling Xingye, "It is impossible for an organization to always let the leader protect his subordinates."

"This is different. Automatic puppets shouldn't be the enemy you need to face."

"It was impossible for us to unite and condense into the largest organization in Academy City." Nanami smiled, "This is the achievement you brought us."

"Xingye, take a rest." Hitomi Shiranui also came to him.Since Ling Xingye didn't go home, she also came to the command center together.

Qifan forcefully dragged him to the lounge: "Only in this respect, you are not a qualified leader yet."

Ling Xingye seemed to be persuaded, but he still looked at the big screen in the command center worriedly.

"Don't worry, we are not being beaten in vain. Didn't the swordsmen of Hijikata successfully fight back?" Qifan said, "We are also gradually grasping the enemy's action patterns, and will report to you when we lock the enemy's target. .”

Ling Xingye stopped: "Don't force it, if the loss is serious, you must retreat immediately to protect your own safety."

"Okay, okay, I understand..." While coping casually, Qifan watched Ling Xingye enter the lounge.

"...Still immature." Turning his head, Qifan's expression immediately became stern, "Or, it's too arrogant, sir."

Apart from collecting some innocuous information, Ling Xingye probably never expected his subordinates, right?

Ling Xingye overlooked one point, that is, what kind of guys were the members of the law enforcement team before they changed their ways and accepted "Zhao'an".

——They are all elite thugs from various extreme societies in the underground world, double bonus red sticks.

In the once dark and chaotic era, it was commonplace to kill people every day, get injured or even die.

As a predecessor from that era, Qifan is no stranger to bloodshed and sacrifice, nor does he reject it.

Not only that, if the entire law enforcement team is really allowed to hide and avoid the battle, I am afraid that they will be the first to refuse, right?

Ling Xingye didn't know his subordinates well.

"However, we can't continue to be slaughtered like this." Qifan narrowed his eyes and picked up the dedicated phone.

For law enforcement, the most troubling thing about Silver Zero is that they have superpowers.

The Law Enforcement Team is selected from an "armed group of incompetents," which, as the name suggests, are "incompetents."There are only a few level 2 superpowers in the sky.

After all, it is only a rare case that Gufa Meiwei joined it as a level 3.

And silver 0, although it only has the ability of "psychic power", it starts at the lowest level 2, and there is no lack of people with strong abilities at level 3.

With the experience of the law enforcement team, it may not be a problem to fight against level 3 students.But Silver 0 also has combat experience no less than theirs. Coupled with a single but practical "psychic power", the law enforcement team is certainly not an opponent.

Therefore, Qifan decided to seek advice from professionals.

Guard force—with a mortal body, the existence of high-level abilities can be suppressed by using equipment, techniques and tactics.

The cooperation between the law enforcement team and the security forces has already started, but due to various reasons, the original "cooperation" is quite limited.

Take this opportunity to at least get a full set of equipment for the guard first.With powered armor, the situation should be much better, right?

With this purpose in mind, Shichiban communicated with the security forces.

……

In the lounge, Ling Xingye looked at Hitomi Shiranui who was always by his side.

"Sorry for worrying you these past two days."

"It's nothing." Hitomi Shiranui shook her head, with a resigned expression on her face, "I can only do this for you."

In the past two days, Shokuhou Misaki did not return to the school dormitory, nor did he follow to the command center.

Instead, he stayed in the apartment, continued to collect intelligence, and used his influence to cooperate with Ling Xingye's operation.

The several victories of Ling Xingye and Hijikata, and the intelligence of Shokuhou Misaki all played a big role.

—something must be done!

Seeing Ling Xingye frowning and depressed, Shiranuo Tong secretly made up his mind.

Ling Xingye drank the coffee in his cup in one gulp, and then asked with a change of mood: "I haven't gone to class for the past two days, how is the situation at school?"

Hitomi Shiranui said, "I asked for leave for you, but Teacher Sachiko is still very worried about you."

"Apologize to her after the matter is over." Ling Xingye said, "Now I really don't have the mood to go to school."

"Don't worry, I'll help you with school matters." Hitomi Shiranui stepped forward to give him a hug, and then pushed him down on the sofa, "Take a break first, you haven't slept for a few days."

Noticing Shiranui Hitomi's packed backpack on the table, Ling Xingye asked, "Are you going back?"

"Well," Hitomi Shiranui nodded, "After all, Shokuhou Misaki is at home alone. If I don't go and take care of it, I'm really worried that she will starve to death."

Then, waiting until Ling Xingye fell asleep, Shiranuo Tong quietly left.

At the last hour before the curfew, pedestrians on the road were in a hurry.Hitomi Shiranui pulled up his collar and joined the crowd.

But she didn't return to the apartment.Instead, head back to District Six, "Magic Night Amusement Park."

Hitomi Shiranui found the person who lives in seclusion here——

"Mr. Kiyama, I need your help. I want to restart 'Fantasy Hand 2.0'!"

===Chapter [-] Counterattack===

Night shrouded the city, and there was only one figure walking alone in the empty streets.

At midnight, it was already the curfew time, and only the patrolling personnel of the security forces and law enforcement teams were able to carry out outdoor activities in such an aboveboard manner.

In fact, this short boy was indeed wearing the uniform of the law enforcement team.

It is reasonable to say that the law enforcement team operates in groups, but for some reason, he is the only one walking alone at this time.

Combined with the attacks on members of the law enforcement team in recent days, it can be said that his safety situation is absolutely not optimistic.

The patrol member of the law enforcement team - Ashin, who just became a regular member, also knows his situation.

He wrapped himself in a windbreaker, with a hood on his head and a scarf covering his face, with only a slit for his eyes exposed all over his body.

Ashin hurriedly alternated his steps, looking around vigilantly from time to time, as if he was afraid of being attacked suddenly.

"That's it," the seniors in the group praised through the earphones, "You look like a prey that has stepped into a trap."

"I'm just the bait to step into the trap..." Ashin couldn't help complaining, "Brother, is this plan really reliable?"

"Of course it's reliable! Ashin, even if you don't believe me, you still have to trust the big sister!" The senior team leader encouraged, "Don't be nervous, you are level 3 now, and there are only a few level 2 in front of you, so be afraid!"

"We 'armed incompetent group' don't like the ability level to talk about things the most..." Ashin complained.

"Don't worry about the details, as long as you can win." The team leader said, "How is it? Do you feel the enemy?"

"No," Ashin looked around, "It's better to say that I didn't even find the team leader... Are you really here? You won't let me go?"

"Stinky boy, what are you thinking! If you can even find out, how can we ambush the enemy?" The team leader scolded, "Stop talking nonsense and concentrate! According to intelligence, this is the area where those vampires haunt."

As soon as the words fell, Ashin exclaimed.

Just the moment his eyes moved away a little, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him, which was empty just now.

Silver 0!

Ashin noticed the eye-catching silver hair of the enemy, and suddenly remembered what the leader Ling Xingye called them.

Everyone in the law enforcement team below used to call them "vampires".

Silver 0 also carried out activities in groups. Since there is one in front, it means that you have been surrounded by at least three enemies!

Judging from the appearance, Baiyin 0 in front of him can be said to be a very enviable handsome guy.But that indifferent demeanor and the ominous aura emanating from his body made Ashin feel as if he was facing an abyss.

——This is not human!

Ashin understood this in an instant—in other words, they did not regard "human beings" as their own kind.

The attitude of the eyes is like looking at a tool or food.

The heterogeneous aura seemed to turn into a solid body, engulfing Ashin like viscous mercury, making him stiff, his vision narrowed, dizziness and tinnitus.

"...Ashin! Ashin..." The group leader's voice seemed to come from a distant world.

Ashin struggled to break free from the tension, grabbed the calling sound from the earphone, and his brain began to resume operation.

"...Defend! Protect yourself!" The team leader shouted loudly, "We are coming!"

Ashin came back to his senses and remembered what he should do.He didn't know how long he had been absent-minded, but he was just glad that the enemy didn't take the opportunity to attack.

He slowly raised his hands and put them on the sides of his head as if to surrender.

Obviously the weather is not too cold, but his hands are also wearing thick gloves...

"Come on, bastards!" Ashin muttered.

Then, hold your head and squat to defend.

Two needles shining with metallic luster pierced Ashin.

Bang, bang!
