Academy City Temperature Control

"It turns out to be Natsume-san, do you have anything to do with me?" Turning on the phone, Mitsuko found out that it was Natsume Sonoko's call. The nervous expression on his face softened, and instead he showed a hint of joy.

"After marriage, senior sister, I have received the invitation card sent by your trustee. Thank you very much." Natsume Sonoko opposite said with a hint of gratitude.

"After all, it is such a small thing. There is no reason why I can't get Mitsuko after I get married. This is simply overkill." After the marriage, the senior sister heard Natsume Sonoko's words and showed an inappropriate look of pride on her face, as if she had forgotten My current situation.

"I have encountered some trouble for the time being. The other party irrationally chose me as my opponent. However, out of caution, Natsume-san informed Shirai-san that I, Tokiwadai's Mitsuko after marriage, needs her meager strength. The position is School Garden is near the No. 18 Research Office of Marriage Aviation Holdings."

After the marriage, the senior's tone became solemn again. Although the other party's breathing sound disappeared, it did not mean that the other party had left.

Although she hated that guy Shirai Kuroko, the senior sister immediately thought of this guy who could move in space after getting married.

Just as the senior sister after marriage had finished speaking, there suddenly appeared a sizzling sound from the electric shock device around her due to the current generated when it was turned on.

After the marriage, the senior sister had to move around. With her cell phone in her hand, she had no time to talk, and suddenly bumped into something invisible.

"Ah." After the marriage, the senior sister only had time to let out a slight cry, and she fell down like a deflated rubber ball.

Not everyone has lightning resistance like Shirai-san, and it is obvious that the married senior cannot withstand the electric shock released from the electric shock equipment.

The messy hair fell around, the gorgeous folding fan fell to the ground and rolled around a few times, and the black schoolbag and mobile phone fell to the side.

After marriage, the senior sister fell to the ground like a sleeping beauty, but instead of receiving Prince Charming, she received a high-quality ink pen.

"Hey, Marriage-senpai, are you okay?" Natsume Sonoko's voice came from the phone, but there was no response from Marriage-senpai.

Suddenly, a sense of déjà vu came to Natsume Sonoko's mind. On the other side of the phone, Natsume Sonoko didn't have time to think too much, so she hurriedly called Kuroko to inform her classmates.

Different from the feeling when watching anime before time travel, Natsume Sonoko is really a little angry. Although her senior sister is arrogant after marriage, she is a person who cares about her friends.

Natsume Sonoko naturally knew what happened, and had some impressions of the murderer of the incident. However, this incident caught Natsume Sonoko off guard, and the incident seemed to have happened in advance.

Chapter 21 Tokiwadai under attack

In the school garden, after receiving a call for help from Natsume Sonoko, Kuroko Shirai immediately put down what she was doing and went to the scene.

"Natsume-san, are you sure something happened to that annoying guy Mitsuko after we got married? And he asked you to ask me for help!?"

The voice of Kuroko-san running quickly came from the phone, with a hint of surprise in his tone.Although Kuroko-san had a hard time dealing with this arrogant young lady, he couldn't just ignore her.

After dozens of spatial movements, about 10 minutes later, Kuroko finally found this remote corner of the school garden.

Since at this point in time, Uiharu-san had already returned from the 177th branch of the Discipline Committee, without Uiharu's positioning help, Kuroko-san could only spend a little more time.

Kuroko looked around carefully. Although there are several research institutes located in this location, there is very little traffic, which is very suitable for avoiding other people's sight. Moreover, the light is also covered by the surrounding buildings, making it appear much darker.

"My head feels so dizzy." The married senior sister lying on the ground had already had some reaction. Although her head was still dizzy and she couldn't raise her strength, she finally regained some consciousness and murmured to herself.

"Really, you are such an arrogant guy. You couldn't have fallen down and knocked yourself unconscious." Kuroko looked helplessly at the post-marriage Mitsuko senior sister who was covering her head. Now that she has found someone, Then the crisis will almost be resolved.

"Natsume-san, I found that annoying guy. His things fell all over the floor. It looks like he just fell. Can you please stop treating me as a babysitter next time? The Disciplinary Committee is very busy."

Although the senior sister herself was right in front of her after the marriage, Kuroko-san was not polite at all and took out her cell phone to contact Natsume Sonoko and said.

"No, the senior sister did say that she was attacked by someone after the marriage." Natsume Sonoko's voice came from the mobile phone.

After the marriage, the senior sister's consciousness regained a little, and she subconsciously moved her hands away from her head, revealing her smooth forehead.

"By the way, what happened to your annoying guy's forehead? Puff, puff, haha."

Kuroko-san on the side just glanced at it, as if he had been struck by a smile, and immediately covered his mouth and squatted on the ground, suppressing his laughter and unable to stand up.

As if feeling the presence of Kuroko-san, the senior sister opened her eyes in a daze after marriage, and looked at Kuroko-san squatting down in front of her with a somewhat confused expression, covering her mouth and smiling.

The seventh school district branch of the Guards, the inquiry room of the Guards Building.

Kuroko-san was waiting outside the inquiry room. He seemed to be looking at the sky a little absent-mindedly. There was still a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he had just covered his mouth and laughed for a long time.

Natsume Sonoko, who came in a hurry, also came to the inquiry room at this time, but she looked a little out of breath.

"Kuroko-san, will there be any problems with my senior sister after marriage?" Natsume Sonoko asked.

"There's nothing serious about that annoying guy, it's just that there's something wrong with her eyebrows." After saying this, Heizi couldn't help but laugh again, but he still maintained his ladylike appearance, covering his mouth to avoid making too many noises. Big laugh.

Since the senior sister's marriage was no big deal as in the plot, Natsume Sonoko couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but her curiosity was immediately aroused by Kuroko-san's laughter.

How will the thick eyebrows look like after marriage?I'm a little curious for no reason.

"Isn't it over inside?" Natsume Sonoko has been waiting outside for more than ten minutes, and the conversation inside is not over yet.

"It should be almost time. In fact, the security guard is confirming the credibility of what the guy said. He has always said that he was attacked by someone invisible. If it is true, it falls into the category of an ability user incident."

Kuroko-san knew a lot about this aspect of the matter, so he suppressed his smile and explained to Natsume Sonoko who was standing beside him.

"Doesn't the Discipline Committee have the power to search the library? Then we can know the other party's information just by checking." Natsume Sonoko asked.

Natsume Sonoko, who had special channels, had a rough idea of ​​the prisoner's information, but what she lacked was the name and appearance of the prisoner.

"If the other party really has abilities that cannot be detected by others, I guess that they may belong to the optical control system, and they can indeed be found through the library. But first, we need to determine whether it is the ability user who committed the crime, and we need to call the nearby surveillance cameras to confirm For a moment." Kuroko-san thought for a moment and said.

If no clues to the incident can be found, then use the huge surveillance system in Academy City. If no clues are found, then use satellites. With powerful technology, you can do whatever you want.

"The two classmates from outside also come in. I want to ask you about something."

The security guard named Tie Zhili leaned out of the interrogation room.She had extremely high-precision eyes on her face and a bandage on her cheek. Even though she was wearing the uniform of a security guard, she still looked weak.

"Okay, Teacher Tiezhuang." Natsume Sonoko nodded obediently and said.

There is no army in Academy City. Instead, they rely on security guards to maintain the daily activities and safety of Academy City. At the same time, dealing with ability users who abuse their abilities is also the focus of their work.

The Guards are independent of the government armed forces and are a special force directly under Academy City.The personnel are usually teachers from various schools, or at least people with teaching licenses, but female guards are relatively rare.

"Um, please explain what happened when you saw your married classmates." Teacher Tie Zhuoli said.

Natsume Sonoko secretly glanced at the married senior next to her, and saw that the married senior still had the look of an arrogant young lady on her face. She unfolded her gorgeous folding fan, covering the upper part of her eyes, and turned her head to look away. Kuroko Shirai covered her mouth and snickered.

"The specific situation is this, and that's all we know." After roughly explaining what happened, Natsume Sonoko said.

At this time, the security guard also played a video, which was the scene when Senior Photon was attacked after her marriage. The video was far away from the crime scene, and only the outline of the person could be roughly seen.

"I'm actually following my married senior sister all the time. Even if I'm so close, it's hard to spot her." Natsume Sonoko also found it a bit incredible. Academy City's abilities are really weird. She's obviously around her, but she can't see anything. To the figure.

Certain abilities in the extrasensory perception system are really hard to guard against and are completely unscientific!

There are also some people with powerful optical abilities who can completely prevent people and equipment from monitoring them by distorting the light around them. Of course, there must be ways to deal with people with such abilities in Academy City.

Regarding the various strange abilities, Natsume Sonoko said that Academy City is really dangerous. It is a huge challenge for an ordinary student like herself to live in this environment.

Not to mention the monster-like lv5 seniors, there are all kinds of Frankensteins and all kinds of perverted experiments.

The video kept playing, and the distance between the two people suddenly widened. This was probably when he was calling his senior sister after marriage. The ringtone of the cell phone seemed to scare the prisoner, causing her to delay her action for a while.

"It seems that the other party is also a young novice. Maybe it is just the first time to attack. Even if the incident has changed, will the senior sister still be the first after marriage?" Natsume Sonoko thought, looking at the marriage inexplicably Senior sister.

"We will inform you if anything happens." Teacher Tie Zhuoli sent a few people to the door and then said.

Just as a few people left the guard building, another student from Tokiwadai came here supported by his classmates. Kuroko asked about it and also said that he was attacked by someone invisible.

Kuroko-san's brows have already furrowed. It seems that this matter is no longer just a matter for the senior sister after her marriage. It may be targeting the entire Tokiwadai Middle School.

In short, the students of Tokiwadai Middle School encountered an invisible crisis, and the lone Tokiwadai students were in danger.

"Are abilities such as optics and invisibility that can eliminate the sense of presence effective on Shokuhou Misaki-senpai? If the weak Shokuhou-senpai is attacked by a sneak attack, will it be possible to kill a lv5?" Natsume Sonoko suddenly thought in her head. Something, my thoughts couldn't help but be a little divergent, but in the blink of an eye I felt that it was not feasible.

After all, Shokuhou Misaki-senpai has mastered almost all mental phenomena, and maybe some of them include abilities such as telepathy and danger perception.

After getting married, the senior student rejected Natsume Sonoko's suggestion to go with Kuroko-san. It was probably impossible to show up in front of the crowd before the ink faded.

According to the information from the security guard, these inks belong to the latest products developed by the universities in Academy City's Tenth School District. They cannot be washed away within a week.

.....***Gorgeous dividing line***....

The next day, the Discipline Committee 177 activity branch.

Discipline committee member Miwei Kobo was not in the activity branch. Kuroko and Uiharu were sitting around the computer looking up information. Natsume Sonoko was sitting quietly on a stool waiting for the results of the two people's inquiries.

"I think before checking the alibi of these optical ability users, we should find other ability users who may be able to do similar things."

Natsume Sonoko sat on the sofa a little unhappy. For the simple purpose of venting her anger on her senior sister after her marriage, Natsume Sonoko decided to personally teach the murderer a lesson, and then arrest her and send her to a labor camp.

But this hateful Kuroko-san doesn’t consider Natsume Sonoko-san’s opinions at all.

It is clear that Natsume Sonoko has made suggestions to investigate people with abilities such as visual impairment, hallucination creation, brain control, etc., but Kuroko-san still does not intend to let Natsume Sonoko get involved in unrelated events, but Uiharu-san on the side listens carefully. Natsume Sonoko’s opinion.

"This is no longer an incident that has nothing to do with me. I am a member of Tokiwadai, and my senior sister is also my friend after marriage. I want to help find the murderer."

Natsume Sonoko slammed the table hard and stood up, but her head was held down by Kuroko, who had the advantage in height, unable to move.

"I don't know when that annoying guy Mitsuko became a friend like you after the marriage, but." Kuroko had a depressed expression on his face.

Before Kuroko-san could finish his words, Uiharu-san on the side continued what Kuroko-san said.

"But I can help investigate the types of people with optical abilities proposed by Natsume-san in the library, and Kuroko-san will continue to investigate the alibi of these optical ability users." Uiharu-san said in a sweet voice, and put a wreath on her head. She is like a little angel.

Chapter 22 Natsume Sonoko: I have a radar for people

There are a total of 47 optical system users who can completely hide themselves in the Academy City Library, and their ability levels are all above those of strong users.

If you want to collect their alibi, even with the help of other disciplinary committee branches and even the security police branch, it cannot be done in a day or two.

Regarding the attack on Tokiwadai students, it actually does not fall under the jurisdiction of Uiharu-san and the Discipline Committee 177 activity branch. The specific situation has been reported to the Discipline Committee [-]rd activity branch located at Tokiwadai Middle School.

"Kuroko-san, this is Makigami Komaki."

"We are aware of the specific situation and have sent a warning email to all Tokiwadai students, and have also sent personnel to patrol around the school." The voice of Makigami Komaki came from the other end of the phone.

Komaki Makigami is a first-year student at Tokiwadai and a member of the Discipline Committee's third branch. He seems to have recently joined the Shokuhou faction and become one of them.

Natsume Sonoko had no experience with her and had only seen her patrolling Tokiwadai Middle School from a distance.

After Makigami-san hung up the phone, Kuroko-san came back to his senses and looked at Uiharu-san who was continuing to check the library.

"Visually obstructed, there is only one person in Academy City, Shigefuku Shoho, a second-year student at Sekisho Middle School, level lv2."

"Illusion Creation: There are 15 people in Academy City, and there are three of them who can create real hallucinations. They are the first-year students of Nagasaki Middle School..."

"..."

After expanding the scope of abilities, the number of ability users who needed to be investigated doubled several times. However, in the vast sea of ​​people, the clever Natsume Sonoko still caught the key points at a glance.

"Chongfu Sailan, ability visual impairment, level lv2."

Seeing Natsume-san focus on this person, Uiharu-san on the side seemed a little puzzled. Although level 2 ability users are considered good in Academy City, they still cannot be invisible in front of others. At most, they will be lowered. A sense of presence.

After leaving the 177th branch of the Discipline Committee, Natsume Sonoko had already obtained the information she wanted.

"Chongfu Shengfan, second grader of Guansuo Middle School."

The originally fuzzy memory has become clear, and it overlaps with the photos and information in the file, which can be regarded as completing this part of the memory.

"Now it's my turn, Natsume Sonoko." Silently encouraging herself, Natsume Sonoko walked towards the school garden. After carefully studying the opponent's abilities, Natsume Sonoko found that she was actually quite restrained by the opponent.

The other party can affect people's eyes through their abilities, but it is limited to human eyes, and has no hindrance to non-human eyes such as mirrors and cameras.

In addition to observing the opponent through non-human eyes such as ice mirrors and water surfaces, Natsume Sonoko can also directly capture the opponent's position and movements through the ability to control temperature.

Since Natsume Sonoko's abilities cannot directly affect living things such as humans, when she uses her abilities on a large scale, there will be an obvious ability vacuum area in the space where the organism is located.

This vacuum is as eye-catching as a flame in Natsume Sonoko's brain. The opponent's movements and demeanor and even the slight changes in the chest caused by the rise and fall of the heartbeat can be reproduced in the brain through the ability.

It's just that Natsume Sonoko can't regularize this kind of large-scale temperature control. Otherwise, enemies within a hundred meters radius can be predicted in advance, and everyone in the sky and on the ground is equivalent to being blinded, as if they have a human radar.

Of course, enemies who can be shot in the head from eight hundred miles away are no longer included in this list.

Similarly, the heat energy released by the opponent's body will affect the nearby temperature, which can also be the basis for Natsume Sonoko to observe the opponent, but this ability will gradually become difficult to observe as the distance increases.

Closer to home, if this guy named Shigefuku Shoho didn't commit crimes everywhere in the school garden, then Natsume Sonoko would still have a hard time finding her.

If the scope is limited to the Academy Garden, and she actively attacks Tokiwadai students, Natsume Sonoko feels that she should be able to find her by walking around the Academy Garden a few times.

Her appearance information has been confirmed before, and now there is no need to worry about finding the wrong person. This guy is still using electric shock devices to commit crimes everywhere. When the time comes, the stolen goods will be captured in one fell swoop.

I swiped my student card at the entrance and exit of the Academy Garden.

Yes, student card.

Natsume Sonoko grabbed the handbag in her hand, preparing to use it when the opportunity arose.

By the way, for this schoolbag that can withstand and take damage, it is indeed a bit unfair to only use it to hold some information.It is best to attach a layer of ice ballast to the outside and modify it to be used by Frostmourne to hit people.

However, when it comes to the use of abilities, Natsume Sonoko, as an ordinary student, can be said to be very restrained.

For example, by raising the temperature of the environment by dozens of degrees and causing brain shock or even brain death to the opponent just by breathing, Natsume Sonoko can do this easily, but this is already an abuse of ability.

Misaka-senpai often uses electric shock to make delinquents or criminals faint or go into shock. However, these are high-voltage and low-current, with huge computing power and accuracy. Not only can they not be killed by electric shock, but there is no danger of damaging the brain. .
