Zongman: Beginning with the Killer Queen

"Obviously the original plan was to keep Saten-san away from this project, so why did I get involved myself instead?"

Seeing Saten Ruiko pulling Uiharu Shiori away with an excited look on her face, Shirai Kuroko couldn't help but sigh as the two girls' backs gradually faded away.

At her fingertips, the delicate ID card was drawing eye-catching arcs in the air with the flick of her wrist.

She had just made up her mind not to collude with Blue Dream Company, but in the end, she became an employee of Blue Dream Company inexplicably.

But even though the slap in the face came so quickly, after realizing the role of this identity card, the girl still took it after hesitating.

After all, as Roland said, the identities of the disciplinary committee members and non-staff employees of Blue Dream Company do not conflict.

Although it is possible to be deceived or corrupted if you join the inside, it is still much better than the situation where you were blocked by permissions and had no way to start when you checked the information.

only--

"It's really suspicious. I thought that guy would ask me to owe another favor in exchange for providing assistance..."

Shirai Kuroko grunted.

No matter from which angle you look at it, if Roland really wants to hide something, giving her the status of Blue Dream Company will do more harm than good.

Moreover, even the favor left due to her mistake was actively offset by Roland using this excuse.

Thinking from his perspective, the girl even felt a little ashamed.

Could it be that besides having a very twisted personality, that guy was actually a good person unexpectedly?

"Just say Heizi, you think too much."

On the other side, Misaka Mikoto also put her hands behind her head and walked on the road with an unladylike stride.

"Although my concerns about the Dream Creator have not been completely eliminated, the possibility that urban legends like the Fantasy Controller are related to it is too small."

Just through the brief description of the project, you can easily understand the hugeness of the Dream Maker Project. This is the core equipment in the new system that requires a heterogeneous rough stone that can surpass superpowers.

Even the leftovers are the computing power improvements that those with abilities dream about.

To complete this project, both the theoretical construction and the implementation of the device require extremely strong financial resources and background.

In the legend of Fantasy Controller, its greatest effect is just to improve the level. In Roland's introduction, these advantages are just incidental things that are not worth mentioning for the Dream Creator.

"Taking a step back, even if there is really some conspiracy in this project, the scandal shouldn't have started before it was spread on a large scale and it was just the first batch to test the waters, right?"

"Well……"

Because such a rebuttal was too strong, Shirai Kuroko's twin ponytails drooped down on the back of her head.

Yes, in terms of cost and results, it's not worth it.

They went to such great lengths just to create a problem for the disciplinary committee and to lay such an obvious hidden secret.

This is not at all like the style of a force that even the disciplinary committee of an official organization has no authority to inspect.

What's more, in terms of process, Blue Dream Company also cleared up a lot of responsibilities.

Although the specific process and technology of Dream Maker have not been announced, this device is sold as a product.

Once purchased, it is open to inspection by the buyer.

Taking into account the other hostile forces and spies in Academy City, the possibility of a back-up man capable of huge hidden dangers is really low.

Moreover, there is no compulsory installation when purchasing this product. Even if the user does not want to install it through the official channels of Blue Dream, it is allowed to go to a private doctor on his own, but the manufacturer is not responsible for any accidents in the process.

From this point of view, the possibility of someone tampering with this intermediate channel is greater.

"Heizi also knows this, but I always feel that Roland is too calm. He has the strength to defeat even his sister, and he is a high-ranking company employee. Would he be so indifferent to the projects he handles?"

Shirai Kuroko crossed his hands and said softly.

"It's not so much that he doesn't care about the unexpected occurrence of the Dream Maker project, it's more like... he's happy to see it succeed."

"What kind of image does Roland have in your mind? Do you really think of him as the villain in urban legends who even the chairman of the board would shy away from?"

Misaka Mikoto complained mercilessly to Shirai Kuroko and rubbed his head.

"Although he is not reliable, I don't think he is that bad."

"That's right, since my sister says so..."

Shirai Kuroko originally just mentioned it casually. Just when she was about to end the topic, she suddenly looked at Misaka Mikoto alertly.

etc.

It seems that from the very beginning, Sister-sama has been speaking from an angle that favors Roland?

Although the words are very objective and neutral, in terms of Misaka Mikoto's usual ratings of other people, this is already a very intimate attitude.

The other party is such a dangerous person, sister-sama wouldn't have been tainted without her knowing, right?

She felt anxious.

"Onee-sama, do you like that type of man?"

"Huh?! What are you talking about!"

Misaka Mikoto's pretty face was slightly red, her little hands were dancing nervously, and steam almost came out of her head.

He still seems to be completely immune to such words, so it doesn’t seem like the worst situation.

However, this reaction...

Shirai Kuroko was shocked and became as alert as a guard.

From this point of view, it was indeed the right thing to take this job. Otherwise, let alone interference, it would not even be possible to check the progress of their relationship.

If my sister was attracted to Roland, she would really be in tears.

"It's just a joke, sister, please forget what happened just now." Shirai Kuroko clasped her hands together, stuck out her tongue playfully, and deliberately cast a flash of light to beg for forgiveness.

"Kuroko!"

After grabbing the girl's face and rubbing it like plasticine, Misaka Mikoto angrily forgave her.

"What to do next? It ended much earlier than expected. I remember that Kuroko-chan also took leave from his work as the Disciplinary Committee today. Can we go back to Tokiwadai directly later?"

Shirai Kuroko shook his head.

"It's rare to have such convenient authority. It would be a waste not to use it. I have used my identity as an investigator from Blue Dream Company to apply for an investigation at the hospital that performed the Dream Maker installation surgery. They should send a car to pick me up later. Come on."

"Did the other party come on his own initiative?"

Misaka Mikoto was a little surprised.

Although she is a superpower, she does not use this identity to fight for power, so except for receiving generous bonuses every month, in most cases, she is just an ordinary student.

You need to go to the hospital for medical treatment, and you also need to go to research institutions for daily check-ups.

I didn't expect that just an identity card would give me such superior treatment.

"After all, it's Blue Dream Company...it's just the people in their headquarters. In the outside world, although there is a lot of public opinion, few really dare to openly confront it."

Shirai Kuroko also sounded a little proud.

Although she had expected it, seeing the solemn and attentive reply to the inquiry message she sent out, the girl felt a little bit in her heart when she thought of how those people would shirk and prevaricate when she went to investigate cases as a disciplinary committee member. Secretly cool.

I usually get scolded, but when it comes to this moment, I have to say that I am still very popular as an employee of Blue Dream Company.

Thinking of this, Shirai Kuroko turned his head and looked at Misaka Mikoto.

"Speaking of which, sister, do you want to go and see it together? It's a good time to listen to outside professionals' opinions on Dream Creator, and you can't just believe that guy's words."

Misaka Mikoto hesitated for a moment. After the previous incident, her curiosity about the Dream Creator had indeed increased a lot.

Anyway, I'm here, so there's no harm in following along.

Shirai Kuroko's purpose is also very simple. If the Dream Creator has no shortcomings, she will of course be happy to see her sister and herself go further.

If there is really any flaw, the information obtained on the front line can also be used as a reference to help the two understand the truth about this device.

"Is this Miss Shirai Kuroko from Blue Dream Company?"

At this moment, a strange voice suddenly came from behind the girl.

"It's me." Shirai Kuroko quickly turned his head.

The woman standing behind her was as mature and gentle as her voice.

She looks very young, with fair skin and pretty features.

Although she was wearing a researcher's white robe and her wavy brown hair looked a little neglected, it still couldn't hide her beauty.

The only thing that made people care about him might be his gloomy face, and his eyes were very dazed, as if he hadn't had a good rest for a long time.

"May I ask you are……"

Shirai Kuroko asked cautiously.

"Ah, sorry, I should introduce myself first."

The woman in white robe knocked her head, using this action to make her face look less lazy.

Although this kind of natural behavior made by her groggy appearance still makes people feel a little sad, but she herself doesn't seem to care about it.

"I am Haruso Kiyama. I was invited by the Mizuho Agency Hospital to assist you in investigating the suspected Phantom Hand incident."

She smiled and stretched out her hand towards Shirai Kuroko.

"Next, until we find the real culprit, please take care of me, Ms. Shirai."

————

"It's really a bad idea. They actually led the third one to investigate the already large-scale fantasy master. You should know that if they can't make a final decision, it will only cause greater chaos, right?"

Mugino Shenli, who was leaning against the wall, said leisurely.

"Isn't that just right? Sometimes you have to give those guys a sense of urgency to encourage them to work harder."

Roland, who was sitting behind the desk, calmly tapped the table with his fingertips.

"Otherwise, she would have become suspicious because of Blue Dream Company's calm attitude. Misaka Mikoto and the others can serve as the appropriate stimulus."

"And I'm not lying. With that identity card, if Kuroko Shirai is sharp enough, and with the help of Misaka Mikoto before the spread of Fantasy Mitsuru comes to light, maybe we can usher in the incident. Where is the end..."

"Heh, that's best."

Mugino's sharp lips curled up and he rolled his eyes at Roland.

This is indeed not impossible, but there are too many unstable factors, especially after the inclusion of Dream Creator.

"But, doesn't it matter if you do this? Haven't you always been very optimistic about the third person's qualifications in magnetic field rotation, and think that she is indispensable if she is to surpass me?"

"Her indispensability is mainly reflected in her versatility. In the final version of Dream Maker to be sold to ordinary people, building a server like an external surrogate brain is a key prerequisite."

Looking at the somewhat indignant Mai Ye Shen Li, Roland smiled slightly.

"Besides, if we really talk about the qualifications of magnetic field rotation, no one can compare with Fan Feng Runzi who is beside Xiao Qi."

"Tsk..."

Mai Ye Shen Li, who was still complaining, suddenly fell silent.

She had a deep impression of the purple-haired girl who had just taken Shokuhou Misaki back to Tokiwadai.

Because that ability is really too powerful.

Clothing of heavenly clothing.

That is the ability to strengthen the body by manipulating the electrical signals of somatic cells.

This is a perfect match with magnetic field rotation. According to Roland, with the help of her ability, she will have extremely terrible flow and control.

Although there are still side effects now, if it is limited to one attack, the power that Fan Feng Runzi can burst out has surpassed everyone except Roland.

After the girl's potential is developed into a superpower, the strongest person in the Blue Dream Organization under Roland may not be her.

Mai Ye Shen Li gathered her hair in annoyance. In order to prevent this from becoming a reality, she must obtain merits faster, so as to legitimately obtain Roland's guidance.

"So, what is the mission this time, leader? You specifically asked me to give up those marginal tasks and come back. I guess this matter is very important, right?"

"Of course, this mission - hiss..."

Roland was only halfway through his words when he inexplicably took a breath of cold air, and then supported his chin with a lazy look.

Such a weird performance made Mai Ye Shen Li frown, as if he understood something, and there was a few unspeakable anger in his bright eyes.

She suddenly walked a few steps forward, and sure enough.

Under the desk, the kneeling girl was lowering her head, her shoulders shrugged.

Judging from the sweat on her forehead, she had obviously been here for a while.

"Roland——! You actually let Takitsubo do this! And while she was talking to me!"

Maino Shenli's eyes seemed to be spitting fire, with a face full of anger.

After being tamed by Roland, she had not shown such a resentful and murderous expression in front of him for a long time, which shows how angry she was today.

But all this obviously did not have any deterrent effect on Roland.

"Although cell reorganization can restore the damage caused by the body crystal in the past, it is not so easy to make up the life span overdrawn in this way."

Looking at Takitsubo Rihou who was still holding on because of choking, puffing up her cheeks and sobbing hard.

He patted the girl's back, then followed the soft curve upwards, gently stroking the silk-like hair.

"And the vitality I have can just make up for this."

"And this kind of psychological addiction problem that combines drugs with abilities cannot be solved in a short time. This gradual replacement method can also slowly eliminate this bad habit."

"Who do you think I am? This is entirely because you, Mai Ye, have yellow eyes and see yellow."

Roland said with a righteous face, as if he had made up his mind.

"For me, this is the most normal medical behavior... probably."
