Academy City Temperature Control

Even though she is Level 5 in Academy City, she always...occasionally gets lazy. Speaking of which, Shokuhou-senpai seems to have a little too much fat on her arms.

"Natsume-san, your idea is very rude." Shokuhou-senpai pouted and rubbed Natsume-san's face angrily.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to do it." Someone's face turned red, and he seemed a little embarrassed. He couldn't hide his little thoughts in front of this senior.

"But it doesn't matter. As long as you remember to bring me some specialties when you come back, I will forgive you."

"Natsume-san's idea of ​​using a calculation interference device is really eye-opening." Watching Natsume-san leave, Shokuhou-senpai showed a hint of surprise on her somewhat sleepy face.

Chapter 81 Leaving Academy City

It gets late and the sun sets.

There was a trace of sadness in Natsume Sonoko's head, and above her head was a blood-red sky that seemed to be burned by flames.

Throwing away the soda can in his hand, someone looked at the cleaning robot spinning in circles not far away and couldn't help but feel a little lost.

"It seems that I should carefully consider leaving Academy City." Thinking silently, Natsume-san showed a pensive expression.

Sure enough, those names had a greater impact on me than I imagined.

While walking on the road, Natsume Sonoko suddenly remembered something and hurriedly walked into a common gift shop, forgetting the worries just now.

"Buy some of this, yes, I also want this."

This month's scholarship arrived not long ago, and since someone has the habit of saving, his coffers are still very sufficient.

There are some differences between the currency in Academy City and the outside world. Although it looks similar, the currency in Academy City is not allowed to be circulated outside. Even bank cards require several troublesome procedures.

Therefore, for convenience, Natsume Sonoko also needs to exchange some external currencies.

In the gift shop, Natsume packed up a pair of live-action glasses that looked good, bought a folding skateboard with propellers, and also chose a miniature smart pet robot.

As if that wasn't enough, I chose two more multi-functional watches in the store, plus an automatic cat feeding device that my cousin Natsume Takashi might need.

Looking at the bank card with a large number of digits wiped out at once, a certain Natsume Sonoko felt a tremble in her heart. Her savings had been reduced by one-third, and she would not dare to buy a super large portion when eating shaved ice in the future.

Since there were a lot of gifts, Natsume-san asked her boss to deliver them directly to Tokiwadai’s dormitory.

It will cost a lot of money to take a taxi when leaving Academy City tomorrow, plus there are outside expenses.

Thinking about it this way, after all, I am still too poor. Will I become a truly poor girl from Tokiwadai when I come back?

Fortunately, Tokiwadai Middle School provides food and housing.

After walking out of the gift shop, before I could take a few more steps, I saw Misaka-senpai on the other side of the road.

But at this time, Misaka-senpai was busy arguing with someone, with a look of unwillingness on her aggressive face.

If you look closely, you will see that the man looks familiar. He has a black hedgehog hair style, is wearing a white washed high school uniform, and is holding some eggs he just bought in his hand.

Eggs should be considered the cheapest protein supplement in Academy City.

Fighting?

Before she could react, a familiar blue electric spark appeared on Misaka-senpai's head, like a miniature electromagnetic pulse, which directly short-circuited the nearby mobile phone robot.

"Are you kidding me? Yesterday there was such a big thunder, all the electrical appliances and refrigerator food in my house were destroyed!" A high school boy named Kamijou Touma said angrily.

"Who told you to make me so angry!" Misaka-senpai made a fist with one hand, showing no signs of losing momentum.

"The reason for your anger is too inexplicable, okay? I didn't do anything at all."

"Wait a minute, stop."

Misaka-senpai, who was carrying her schoolbag, hurriedly chased after her. Natsume-san didn't even have a chance to say hello.

By the time Natsume-san returned to the dormitory, the things she had just bought had been delivered ahead of schedule.

Under the majestic gaze of the dormitory-sama, Natsume-san moved back and forth three or four times before finally clearing away the things piled up at the door.

A large number of gift boxes were piled on the bed, and Natsume-san dragged out several large boxes from under the bed.

Not to mention various changes of clothes, you should also bring a supply of daily necessities.

I dug out the clothes from elementary school. At that time, it was not as strict as Tokiwadai, so you could still wear your own clothes.

After trying on these clothes that she hadn't worn for a long time, she found that they still fit very well. Natsume-san didn't know whether she should be happy or sad.

"Just wear your own clothes outside."

After finding a box as a suitcase, Natsume Sonoko thought about it and put the things she needed in it, and after a while she poured the contents out of the box again.

Unconsciously, it seems that a lot of unnecessary things have been crammed in.

....Dividing line....

Early the next morning, after saying goodbye to Misaka-senpai and Shirai-san, Natsume-san struggled to drag a box out of the dormitory.

After a fierce ideological struggle and a series of simplifications, the original salute of several boxes was finally reduced to one large box.

There are not many taxis in Academy City. After waiting at the door for about ten minutes, a taxi with an Academy City license plate arrived belatedly.

Sitting in the taxi, Natsume Sonoko looked towards the Tokiwadai dormitory and saw Misaka-senpai and Shirai-san waving to her from the window sill on the second floor of the dormitory.

"I will definitely come back, bye."

Opening the car window, Natsume Sonoko also waved to the second floor.

"You guy, don't forget to bring a gift." This is the annoying voice of Shirai-san.

The taxi started, and soon the surrounding scenery moved towards the back.The taxi quickly left School District [-] and headed towards an entrance on the outskirts of Academy City.

"The IDs match."

"Tokiwadai Middle School Natsume Sonoko, you have fifteen days of permission to go out."

After staying at the entrance for a while, he was scanned by an unnamed instrument, and the staff confirmed Natsume Sonoko's identity. At this time, the huge entrance gate slowly opened.

As they drove away from Academy City in a taxi, Natsume Sonoko felt an indescribable sense of relief in her heart, as if a bird had escaped from a huge cage.Even in this relaxed atmosphere, my computing power increased for no reason.

Behind him is the huge wall of Academy City, and you can't even see the edge at a glance.The bricks and stones at all levels were piled up seamlessly and airtight, forming an almost insurmountable city wall.

However, the exterior walls of Academy City seem to be a little different today. Perhaps due to the blackout last night, the original surveillance and alarm systems on many walls are now somewhat paralyzed, and only some of them are still functioning.

This huge city is intimidating, but just from the perspective of this huge city wall, it can indeed be said to be the safest city to a certain extent, if you ignore the various gas explosions that often occur inside.

And just when Natsume Sonoko came out, many parents and children from the outside world could be seen along the way preparing to enter Academy City.

For the miracle of superpowers that Academy City spares no effort to promote, many people have entered Academy City one after another, but only seven people stand at the top of the 230 million people in Academy City.

Even level 4 people with great ability are very few in Academy City. The places where they are more concentrated are Tokiwadai Middle School, Nagasaki Middle School, and Kirizugaoka Girls' High School.

The most important thing is that even after undergoing a set of painful ability development, 0% of the students are worthless lv0. Of course, lv[-] is also the strongest to some extent.

After getting off the taxi and paying the fare which was roughly equal to the scholarship of a lv0 classmate, Natsume could finally breathe the outside air freely.

To be honest, it smells worse than the air in Academy City.

The sun is gradually rising, and there is a hint of anxiety in the air.

After being left in front of a taxi stop outside Academy City, Natsume Sonoko looked up at the sky with a numb face, and then reluctantly took out some biscuits and drinks from the box.

I originally brought it with me just to satisfy my cravings, but I didn’t expect it to actually come in handy now.

I have been waiting at this stop for two hours, but I still haven’t seen anyone coming to pick me up.

[Natsume-san, have you left Academy City? 】

Eating cookies, Natsume Sonoko sat on a bench at the station with her legs dangling. She took out her phone with one hand and read the message.

Natsume-san's mobile phone can still communicate with Academy City internally, but it won't work if the number is changed.

[Yes, by the way, have you eaten?Chongfu classmate. 】After saying that, Natsume-san turned on the camera and took a few photos of the surrounding area.

[Well, we’ve already had lunch. 】

Not far away, a black business car drove quickly. In the driver's seat was a middle-aged man wearing a crisp suit, and next to him was a girl who looked like a high school girl.

"Dad, we're already two hours late."

"You can't blame me entirely. I didn't know that a murder would suddenly occur in the car rental company. I have stepped on the accelerator with all my strength."

Sitting in the back row, a little boy wearing a blue suit, white shirt, gray shorts and a red bow tie was lying on the window glass. He also wore one size larger rimless glasses on his face and was looking at the giant not far away with his eyes wide open. of city walls.

Chapter 82 Conan was squeezed out of the room

The black commercial vehicle was driving along the current road, but the outskirts of Academy City were too big.The road in front of us is almost endless, so we can only rely on navigation to confirm nearby locations.

"Sister Xiaolan, who is the big sister we are picking up today? Uncle seems to take her very seriously. Even his suit was specially dry-cleaned."

As if he was tired of looking at the huge city wall, the little boy with eyes sat on the car seat again, and pulled the arm of the female high school student in front of him with some curiosity.

"I heard from my father that the other party seems to be the daughter of a former friend, but this friend is not in Japan currently, so I asked my father to be the guarantor during the vacation, which should be similar to a guardian." thought the female high school student known as Xiaolan. Liao Xiang said, in fact, she was not very clear about the situation inside.

"That's right, Uncle Maori, will this eldest sister live in our house these days?"

The little boy with eyes and a small suit nodded, and then asked with concern, seeming to be very interested in this student from Academy City.

"Well, he will stay with us for the time being, but I don't know how many days he will stay. Maybe he will go back to his own home in a few days."

Mouri Kogoro controlled the steering wheel attentively and answered casually.

The commercial vehicle drove forward for a while, and finally a taxi station appeared in front of Mouri Kogoro.

At this time, on the waiting bench at the station, a girl with a bun and some snack bags beside her suddenly raised her head.

"Dad, there is someone waiting at that station."

"I saw it, and it matches the originally agreed-upon position. That should be correct."

The little boy sitting in the back seat looked at Natsume-san through the window with wide eyes.

"Is this sister a junior high school student?"

"How do you, a little devil, know this?" Mouri Kogoro slowed down and the car began to stop steadily on the side of the road.

"Because the school where this uniform is located is a junior high school."

"By the way, uncle, what's that sister's name?"

"It's called Natsume Ryuko, no, it seems to be called something."

Standing up, Natsume immediately packed up the snack bags around him and threw them all into the trash can. He touched the corner of his mouth and found no cookie residue, and then he showed a relieved smile.

"Sister, sister, are you the sister that Uncle Maori wants to pick up?"

Feeling that the clothes were being pulled a little, a hand from nowhere grabbed Natsume-san's cuffs.

Looking back, Natsume Sonoko realized that it was a little boy with wide eyes and a bright smile. The little boy was quite tall and had reached about Natsume's chin.

Silently, someone stared curiously at the familiar figure in front of him, with inexplicable emotions in his eyes.

Urgent, waiting online!What should a primary school student do if he encounters the God of Death when he goes out?

"Conan, what are you doing? You can't be so rude."

"Please take care of me. I am Mao Lilan, the daughter of Mao Li Kogoro. There is something wrong with the car my father rented and it cannot be turned off, so let me pick you up."

Angrily, she pulled Conan behind her, and Mao Lilan introduced herself sheepishly.

"First time we meet, my name is Natsume Sonoko. Nice to meet you." Natsume Sonoko raised her head blankly and said.

"Yuanzi? I also have a friend named Yuanzi. What a coincidence."

Mao Lilan suddenly seemed very happy, smiled and took Natsume Sonoko's arm.

"It's that Suzuki Sonoko sister, right? My name is Edogawa Conan. I'm seven years old. My sister can call me Conan."

Arriving at the business car, Natsume Sonoko got into the car quietly. Behind him was Mao Lilan, who was carrying a big box as if it was nothing, and was putting the box in the trunk of the car.

After picking up the person, the car started to drive, heading from Academy City towards Mikka Town in Tokyo.

"Sonoko, your father asked me to take good care of you. You can stay with us peacefully for the next few days. No matter what trouble you have, I can easily solve it. After all, I am a famous detective in Kanto."

"By the way Sonoko, have you heard of my name in Academy City? Isn't it much louder than a certain brat named Kudo Shinichi?"

After scratching his hair and showing a hearty laugh, a certain detective Mouri Kogoro said proudly.

Conan, who was sitting in the back seat with Natsume Sonoko, also looked curious and seemed to be very interested in this.

Academy City's publicity in the outside world is very fierce, and celebrities from various famous schools are also very famous outside.

But apart from these promotional messages, other types of information are basically separated from Academy City.
