Misaka Mikoto slid the panel of the semi-public AR system, and used the identity information disguised by Kihara Celestial Body to mobilize the data. Just like the pages of an encyclopedia, the required information was immediately projected into Misaka Mikoto's eyes.

"Army Ant"

The body is 2-3 cm long, and as the name suggests, it is characterized by slender feet and teeth around a millimeter.

All are black, and all six legs are bright red.Also, males have transparent wings.

carnivorous.

Hermaphroditic (there are males and hermaphrodites? Maybe that word means self-reproduction) rare army ants, in addition to insects and arthropods, especially mammals, on the other hand, there are also examples found in the pulp of fruits, This is not the use of pulp as the main source of food, but in the case of temporary reserves of food problems and a sharp decline in the population, in order to actually capture the prey and lurk in the pulp, it is speculated that it should be a kind of mimic behavior. .Army ants are no exception to have specific nests, with queen ants as the center forming a population of about 5 to 20, wandering within a certain range to obtain prey.

Having the fruit stimulated, the queen ant will lift the restriction and start laying endless eggs to hatch.At that time, there were reports of a large number of infestations even with only one queen ant remaining.

There have also been numerous reports of attacks on humans outside of the restricted population.

The second international pest control conference set a goal of halving its population within 10 years, and Academy City will provide the technology.

Misaka Mikoto and Kihara Celestial Body looked at each other, both of them were very sure that based on the current information, clicking on this link would definitely cause some physical and psychological discomfort, but curiosity still prevailed over rationality. It was Misaka Mikoto who clicked on the link...

"..."

Misaka Mikoto grabbed the shoulders of Kihara Celestial body standing beside her, her eyes were full of horror, the hand covering her mouth was still trembling, the red bugs that covered the sky, and the backward village swept by the wriggling storm, The villagers' howls and terrifying humming made it difficult for Misaka Mikoto to sleep tonight.

At this moment, the skin of the orange that was held by Misaka Mikoto seemed to wriggle a bit, so that Misaka Mikoto let go of her hand immediately, and at the same time, Kihara Celestial Body immediately caught the orange that was about to fall to the ground.

"This?"

"I used my ability to create the effect of low-temperature freezing, and the activity of the contents inside was suppressed. Do you want to take a look?"

"Is there any reason to say 'no' at this point?"

"of course not."

After reaching a consensus, Kihara Tianti and Misaka Mikoto walked into the alley closest to them. Due to the huge area of ​​the shopping center, the intricate paths are densely distributed like a spider web. "All roads lead to Rome". Arguments are also valid metaphors here.

Therefore, to sum up, abandoned or closed shops due to business slump also exist naturally, so in front of a superpower-level electric shocker and a professional researcher, such low-end, even in Academy City Is there really a waste security system that can't even be rated E?The answer is probably not necessary to question, right?

"So......"

"Um......"

After getting an affirmative answer from Misaka Mikoto, Kihara Tianti carefully peeled off the skin of the strange orange in his hand.

"Misaka Mikoto...you'd better turn around..."

"What? Even army ants... uh!"

Misaka Mikoto didn't understand why Kihara Astrology let her not watch it. Curiosity drove Misaka Mikoto to grab Kihara Celestial's shoulder and turned him around, but the scene that appeared before her immediately made her regret that the dinner was too greasy. .....

The pulp in the orange has completely shrunk, and dense ant colonies gather in the orange. At the same time, there seem to be milky white larvae near the center. The dense picture is even the Muyuan celestial body. The scalp is numb, especially because the Muyuan celestial body The larvae, which were limited by their abilities, were still wiggling slightly, causing Misaka Mikoto to instantly feel a chill in her brain. Even though she had nothing, Misaka Mikoto seemed to feel something crawling on her body, and she felt uncomfortable.

"Hey!"

"Sure enough, the queen is not here..."

The ant colonies are superimposed layer by layer. In the middle part, the ant colony in the "semi-dormant" state is broken apart by the Muyuan celestial body in order to see the situation of the queen. However, the center is still larvae, and there is no queen. Traces, but the denser milky-white larvae in the middle, especially the ones that are attached to the gaps of the shrunken pulp, the dense appearance as if the tail is pierced into the peel is really troublesome for the scalp, especially the wriggling appearance at night. It will be a nightmare!

In the small space, some larvae seemed to be disturbed due to the external force of the Kihara celestial body, and a large number of larvae began to shake their bodies uneasily. The larvae that seemed to be arranged in the teeth of the lamprey's mouth felt even the Kihara celestial body. When it came to his stomach, because he hadn't eaten much at night, Kihara Tianshi seemed to feel a sour taste coming from the depths of his throat, but the part of Kihara forced him to continue watching.

"Hey, when are you going to see it?"

"It takes about half a month to a month for ant larvae to grow to the level of small worker ants...Is it about three to five days before they fully mature..."

"I said! What the hell are you doing! Do you have any special feelings for ants!"

Misaka Mikoto has been pushed away to five meters. The tingling scene just now is still in her head. Seeing the Kihara celestial body inside the orange with a serious face, Misaka Mikoto has a kind of fear. Feel.

"These army ants are loaded with oranges at the ELS cooperation agency."

"No, didn't you say that it will take half a month at the earliest! Why do you make such an inference?"

"Because of the pulp, this level of oranges has limited nutrition. This number of ant colonies can last up to five days, plus the degree of shrinkage and the time to mature, obviously someone deliberately arranged it, and..."

Kihara Celestial Body said and took out a red ant almost as long as a pinky fingernail.

"Soldiers ants, the queen ants should be with them before this, otherwise it is impossible to work in such a step-by-step manner. If they are sent from other places, first of all, it cannot guarantee the stable transformation of the ant colony for a long time, and secondly It’s just not being able to control the timing of the shipment.”

"So what's the point?"

"There are people here who don't want Academy City to cooperate with this cooperation agency. To put it simply...someone wants to take action against Academy City or this shopping center, Misaka, you can imagine a whole container of oranges in it. The picture of the army of ants rushing up?"

"Stop talking!"

In Misaka Mikoto's mind, the picture she just saw from the AR appeared. Tonight is probably the most uncomfortable night for Misaka Mikoto. For a junior high school girl, this kind of thing is too difficult for her.

"Anyway, I have to inform the security personnel of the cooperation agency. Although I don't care if they live or die, there are many tourists from other countries here. If they suffer large-scale casualties, it will be very troublesome from Academy City's standpoint."

"But we're not..."

"So we need some means."

......

"Run away, did you..."

One of the "security guards", Anelia G. Ergoskaya sighed while looking at the surveillance screen.

Pursue appropriately first, giving her some degree of freedom of movement.Whether the semi-public AR stays connected, or does not delete her account, is for this purpose.Thinking about it, if Mikoto, who lost her composure, tried to communicate via the Internet, there might be a hole in it...

Anelia spoke her thoughts to her colleague who was by the wall with the file.

"It seems to have escaped along the wall outside the building. The AR display on the wall is malfunctioning due to the magnetic force. As expected, care for minors should not be considered."

"It's impossible for us to have any clues about how to control the detention of able-bodied people. Even a little bit of information has not been made public."

"How's the tracking going? Are there any alternatives to escape to?"

"I don't know anything. The surveillance equipment didn't catch it."

"This should be a system with no dead ends... How about the semi-public AR account? How is it being used?"

The AR system on this street will investigate the user's location information to prevent the image information (service) in use from being peeked by others.Using this, it should be possible to search for the user's location.

but……

"I haven't used it at all since I ran away. And my account continues to be monitored now..."

"The other party is a researcher of Academy City, and our equipment is based on his research and development. It should be said that it should be like this, but this is very wrong. The other party is a representative of Academy City. If It was the junior high school girl who escaped and it was excusable, but the representative of Academy City, Kihara Tenji, also escaped. If it was Misaka Mikoto who escaped, she could get past it with a prank, and she only needed an apology afterwards. Now, if the current situation is wrong, it will be a dispute between Academy City and the cooperation agencies, will this go too far..."

While searching for the whereabouts of Kihara Tento and Misaka Mikoto in the hotel, a guard suddenly ran over in a panic.

"Captain, it's a crime notice!"

"I said, are we really okay with this?"

"I'm not interested in messing with those idiots. If you go back obediently, do you think we have a chance to come out like this? And this thing is too strange, there are too many unreasonable places, we just learned about this so-called urban legend today, and then we I just came here again, and at the same time I happened to encounter an orange with army ants, so the probability of coming down is even more incredible than buying two lottery tickets and winning all the first prizes.”

Kihara celestial body leaned against the wall of the alley and looked at the information in front of him. Due to the forged identity information, he could safely use the other party's system to observe the other party's actions. This is why Kihara celestial body has been saying that the safety factor is zero. .

"How about going to the clerk?"

"Is there any other better way?"

"..."

However, since the two of them can clearly know that they are now wanted, they will definitely be caught within 5 minutes if they go out normally, so the two superpowers choose an unconventional way forward, such as flying over the eaves and walking on the wall. In this way, the two finally arrived at the mysterious shop.

Although it seems to be one of the strangest souvenir shops in the world's tourist attractions, it is still called a "convenience store".

Now, after midnight, the white light of the fluorescent lamps overflowed.

The shopkeeper here was a girl named Leza, who left a message saying "Be careful with oranges".

She knew something, no, she definitely knew something, and it was probably something very scary.

And, this mystery shop is a treasure trove of dubious merchandise.

Maybe even keep the nasty ants as pets.

As for Mikoto, she wanted to meet Leisa for the time being, and then ask her what she knew. Then, she would use the AR system to investigate the "bio-bomb" in a place in this mysterious store, such as the staff room, that would not attract much attention. Relevant information, and for Kihara Celestial Body, he is only taking necessary steps to get the results he needs, because he is very clear about the cause and effect of the matter, and at the same time he also clearly knows that Leisa and the others are related to this matter to some extent. unrelated.

"that......"

"Huh~? Guest?"

After Misaka Mikoto opened the sliding door, the girl sitting in it didn't seem to be Leza, but another white-skinned girl, who was also slightly shorter than Misaka Mikoto, and had the same brown hair as Misaka Mikoto, relying on the headband to force it. Combed back, the same job card on the chest, but it says "Lances".

"If it's Lisa, it should still be in an entertainment venue where weights are traded. I haven't come back yet."

"Does that guy still have that hobby? Isn't it getting more and more wrong? Does a clerk in a strange store have that kind of financial resources to play a game that fluctuates millions of dollars a minute?"

"That's not true. In fact, there are places that are purely entertainment for tourists to have a taste of early adopters. You can play for a long time with [-] to [-] yen."

"Also, if Leza wants to play, of course she can win, but she seems to have her own plans... But does Leza seem to have more adult temperament in this regard?"

"Where are you looking! Don't make judgments without authorization, femininity can't be judged by such superficial values!"

Lanxisi rubbed her sleepy eyes, as if she was about to fall asleep in the next second, watching Misaka Mikoto and Kihara Tianti said with a strong energy.

"Don't look at Leisa like this, the fourth grade of elementary school used that one."

"Which one?"

"you shut up!"

Kihara Celestial Body still didn't know what the so-called "which" was talking about, but he also analyzed some information from Misaka Mikoto's reaction and Lanxis' so-called "adult temperament", and then put on a pair of The sympathetic expression almost made Misaka Mikoto execute her directly.

......

Although they are all called nightclubs, they are different in form.

An amusement park that is illuminated by a lot of lights and has a completely different color from the daytime.Loaded with high-pitched music and alcohol, a club for young people.Dress and good manners are the opera theaters that set the conditions for admission.Different types, different grades, and different crowd-oriented entertainment projects are provided in this place where the darkness of night is annihilated with lights.

Nonetheless, there are very few places that can meet the conditions that Mikoto and Kihara objects can seek.
