Stray Chapter 71: A busy day
"Why are you here too?"
Xia Ran turned her eyes and glanced, very naturally raised her hand and waved, saying hello: "Good morning, have you had breakfast?"
"Eat, eat..." Misaka Mikoto replied subconsciously, but she reacted immediately, shook her head quickly, and walked over quickly, "Hey, don't change the subject, you just said that What the **** is going on?"
"Just kidding..." The magician smiled and spread his hands, "Don't worry so much, to be honest, instead of worrying about me, it's better to worry about whether human civilization can live longer than me."
"You bastard..." The corner of her mouth twitched, Misaka Mikoto complained dissatisfiedly, this kind of thing can be used as a joke?
The other party was indifferent as always, which made her relieved, but she was still a little uneasy in her heart.
Is it really just... a joke?
"By the way, why are you so free today, you're all here?" Xia Ran didn't bother about what happened just now, and changed the subject with a single sentence. He looked behind Misaka Mikoto, not only Satian Leiko, Kuroko Shirai and Shiri Uiharu, who had not appeared before, also came.
"I've been busy before. After all, the Disciplinary Committee has to attend work during the summer vacation. I was able to take a breath recently. I just heard from my elder sister that you have helped a lot in the matter of fantasy, so I want to come here. A personal thank you..."
As Misaka Mikoto's pendant, Kuroko Shirai bowed to the boy in front of her very politely and said that she really looked like a well-mannered girl.
"By the way, my name is Kuroko Shirai. I'm a first-year student at Tokiwadai Middle School, my sister-in-law's schoolmate and roommate. This is Shiri Uiharu, and we are both disciplinary committee members..."
"You, hello..."
Ui Chun Shili blinked, suddenly heard her name, blushed slightly, nodded shyly to the magician, and said hello in a low voice.
She didn't look very natural. After all, she saw the boy in front of her that day and couldn't help but beat a bad priest. I can still remember it now... It's just that he didn't arrest him on the spot, and then he didn't. The evidentiary allegations, coupled with the fact that the victim did not accuse, ultimately fell through.
Chu Chun Shili didn't forget this incident, and at the same time was a little distressed, why her two friends became so familiar with each other in a blink of an eye, so now she doesn't know how she should face this stranger .
It's really good at disguising. How can someone who is unfamiliar know that this is a guy who writes "Heizi" and reads "Pervert"?
Noticing the girl with two ponytails talking to her in a serious manner, the deep vigilance and hostility hidden in the depths of her eyes, Xia Ran smiled.
As if he didn't find anything, he nodded solemnly to the two of them: "You're welcome, after all, it is every citizen's duty to help law enforcement officers and maintain social stability..."
“…”
“…”
The air seemed to freeze suddenly.
Kamijo Touma subconsciously turned his head and glanced around, and found that there were no cameras around and no reporters to interview, but why did the director just say something so visual?
This kind of cliché is completely the line that the people who face the interview camera will say!
The corners of Shirai Kuroko's eyes were also twitching. She had been staring at Xia Ran closely, not letting go of the other person's expression and subtle changes in her eyes. She wanted to see if this person would show any flaws - although Misaka Mikoto has Impatiently, he said that it was not the case at all, and he even beat her up last night.
But her hunch is still constantly warning. Just during her busy time, some hateful apes take advantage of the situation and approach her elder sister with a purpose, a plan, an organization, and a premeditated plan. Because of the lonely heart that she can't be by her side all the time, my elder sister has plans!
No way!
So today, Heizi came decisively to face this crisis head-on and defend his sacred and inviolable love!
Only now, this strange man is not an easy opponent to deal with! Shirai Kuroko clearly saw the playfulness hidden in the depths of his eyes under the serious expression of the other party, I am afraid that he already understood why she came here.
"Hey, you bastard... that sounds so nice, but I don't think you do that at all, don't you feel bad about your conscience?"
Misaka Mikoto looked at the magician with a strange look. Why would this person say such a high-sounding thing, wouldn't it be very offensive?
"No, I'm not a citizen at all." Xia Ran answered as a matter of course, this is indeed a citizen's obligation, but he is not a citizen and has no such obligation.
“…”
“…”
"...Hmph, I think you don't actually have a conscience at all." Misaka Mikoto snorted, it really was like this, she said how dare this person say such a thing.
Immediately afterwards, the tea-haired girl frowned slightly. She also looked around subconsciously, and asked in a puzzled manner, "Huh? Why does it seem to be so cold all of a sudden, is it an illusion? Or is it yours? The air conditioner is running too high..."
The magician didn't seem to know, and nodded: "It should be that the air conditioner is turned on too much, I will turn it down a little later."
Shiroi Kuroko smiled reluctantly. Before Misaka Mikoto looked over, she promptly put away her gloomy expression and the lingering black energy. The negative pressure just now was naturally irresistible from her. issued.
Dangerous! Too dangerous!
Ahhhhhhh! What have you been doing in the previous period of time? I was so busy that I left my elder sister in the cold, and as a result, I unknowingly let the abominable stinky man approach her to such a degree! Kuroko felt a little broken and unacceptable. She had never seen her elder sister so close to a boy.
Well, in fact, this can't be called closeness at all, it's just a normal conversation between acquaintances and friends, because they are already very familiar with each other, naturally they won't be very alienated, and it's normal to talk casually , not to mention intimacy.
But for the perverted sunspot, this is already an unbearable weight in life. She feels that she is at the most critical moment in her life!
That's right! This hateful man will green her at any time, she is at risk of being NTR!
What should I do, what should I do... I tried my best to keep the smile on her face, but Kuroko Shirai still saw the doubt in the eyes of Misaka Mikoto who was looking over, so she made her smile look more natural, but her brain was already Crazy high-speed thinking.
It seems that my elder sister is already suspicious...
So we can't take too radical means to destroy the relationship between them. If we do it too obviously, the elder sister will definitely not be happy...
Shiroi Kuroko also knows that she has missed the best opportunity. If the relationship between the two people is so familiar, she can still stop it by messing around, but now she can't. This kind of thing She is still measured.
Don't embarrass them willfully.
Huh? Wasn't it a sunspot just now?
Misaka Mikoto retracted her gaze, but there was still some suspicion in her eyes. She always felt that it was Kuroko just now. After all, the source of the low pressure that caused the surrounding air temperature to drop suddenly was the one that erupted around her.
After thinking for a while, the brown-haired girl seemed to remember something, and nodded to Shirai Kuroko: "Speaking of which, before you came, Kuroko, you said you wanted to know the detailed information about the fantasy master, right?"
"Yes, Mrs. Sister."
The pervert with double ponytails maintained a perfect and decent smile on his face, and replied in a natural tone: "After all, the incident of the fantasies was resolved abruptly, and we still haven't figured out the specific ins and outs. There seems to be a resurgence in the matter... so as the ethics committee, we want to find out."
That's right, she's not a fool, but she has a legitimate reason to come with my elder sister!
He also used this reason to drag Uiharu Shiri along with her. In this case, even the elder sister can't talk about her.
"Oh, I see..."
It was silent for a while, as if he was thinking, and seemed to be delaying time. After a few seconds, Xia Ran nodded slightly: "This is simple, our chief researcher here focused on understanding about You can ask her anything about the fantasy master..."
"Chief researcher?" Kuroko Shirai smiled naturally. She didn't want this person to find out what was wrong with her, but she couldn't find out what was wrong with her. "Alright, can we see her now?"
"Okay, she's in there, you can go in and find her."
The magician said calmly, stretched out his hand and pointed to the long corridor on the inside of the hall. Behind the glass door are the smooth alloy walls and floors, smooth enough to be used as a mirror, even if a snail climbs up, it will slip. , and at the end is an airlock's alloy gate.
Although there is a sense of sight, it makes people feel as if they will be cut into 18 pieces by the laser if they walk in halfway, but the safety precautions are indeed very qualified, and people feel full just by looking at them. A sense of security, I always feel that even if this research facility cultivates the T virus in the depths, the contents inside cannot easily escape...
Shiroi Kuroko obviously didn't think much of it, turned her head to look at Misaka Mikoto, and said cheerfully, "Let's do a live transcript now, elder sister."
"No, you can go with Chuchun, I'm not a disciplinary committee member..." The tea-haired girl's expression was a little weird, but she still shook her head and refused, "I have already understood this matter with Leizi, You can take notes if you want."
"Eh..." Kuroko Shirai's smile froze.
"What's the matter? Didn't you and Uiharu say that you want to come and make another transcript to confirm?" Misaka Mikoto looked at her strangely.
"No, nothing, Chuchun, let's go take a look now."
Shiroi Kuroko couldn't help but glanced at the magician next to him, trying to convince himself that this was not to let the other party and his elder sister be alone, there were other people around, and the tears were still here, it was nothing, Nothing...
"Okay, okay..." The girl with the flowerpot on her head responded timidly, and followed step by step.
“…”
“…”
Silence has returned to the hall.
After a few seconds, Kamijou Touma, who had been holding back his words, couldn't help but complained, "Is this a face-to-face confession?"
He wasn't affected just now, so he watched the director's voice stretched out, like the white hair of last night, and the two girls on the opposite side also stood motionless, and it took a few minutes. time -
Also taking advantage of this time, Bilibili ran into the research institute decisively, and came out after a while.
Because this is equivalent to stopping in disguise, it was obviously such a blatant behavior, but it was not discovered by the two of Shirai Kuroko. Their attention was completely on the director at that time, and on their feelings Among them, it may be that the director thought for a while and then said a word.
I didn't even notice what was going on.
"Hehe, this can be considered a white lie..." Saten Leiko stuck out her tongue. They came too hastily, so they could only make confessions like this. Well it will be exposed.
Although Kuroko and the others should be able to understand and help cover up, but they are law enforcement officers after all, and it is not good for them to know the law and break the law.
"I hope Mr. Mushan can deal with it. I told her that she didn't know about it before. After we found her and asked, she learned about the fantasy master, and later provided information to help us solve the problem... …”
Misaka Mikoto sighed, but her expression was somewhat nervous.
She is not too relieved. After all, Mushan Chunsheng has a problem with his brain... This is not malicious, but an objective evaluation. After all, normal people will not talk to others in public. Suddenly **** on his own.
What if such an unreliable person gets caught?
"Don't worry, whether you can take off your clothes or not are two different things. If she can't handle this kind of problem, she should have been exposed when you asked her last time." Xia Ran said calmly.
Misaka Mikoto thought about it and found that it was indeed the case.
"Ah, it's Miss Jishen."
At this time, Saten Leiko's voice came from the side.
A girl's head protruded from the gate, her beautiful long black hair fell like a waterfall, and the texture was like black noble satin, rippling slightly. She looked at the hall in the gate of the research institute, with a delicate face Expressionless above.
Miss Jishen?
Misaka Mikoto glanced at Saten Leiko, when did Leiko know such a witch.
The girl in the witch costume glanced at everyone in the hall, her gaze fixed on the magician for a moment, then she retracted her gaze and took a step back, stood beside the door and took out a note. The writing above, and the address information on the display board next to the gate, seems to be comparing something.
"Come in..." Xia Ran had the urge to cover her face and sigh, "The address is correct, and you have already seen me, why do you need to confirm it?"
"Just in case," the witch said after thinking for a while.
"What else is there to do with this just in case!"
While the two of them were talking, Jishen Qiusha walked in. Misaka Mikoto hesitated and looked at the magician: "This one is..."
"Hisami Qiusha...is my student at the moment."
Xia Ran said casually, and the witch who walked in front of him was expressionless, but there seemed to be a light flickering in the depths of his eyes. It seemed that this person was really ready to teach himself that his dream of becoming a magician was real. Can it be achieved?
"Student? Are you still in charge of ability development here?" Misaka Mikoto glanced around. This research facility has a huge space, all kinds of equipment, and enough funds to manage it, but unfortunately it is completely empty. .
Why is Mr. Kiyama called the chief researcher? Because she is the only serious researcher here, what else can it be if it is not the chief?
"No, it's magic." Xia Ran corrected.
"Magic..." Saten Leiko's eyes lit up, and she raised her arms high for the first time, "Senior, can I learn this?"
"Unfortunately, it can't be... Super power and magic seem to be in conflict at present." Xia Ran shook his head, the ability person forcibly used magic, there is a risk of tissue explosion, Jishen Qiusha is only because of the ability of blood-sucking killer He was taken away by himself, so now he is no longer a capable one.
He also has laws and knowledge that do not belong to this universe, but it is not good to give them to them.
"Is that so..." Saten Ruiko was a little disappointed, as was Misaka Mikoto next to her.
After all, what girl hasn't imagined magic or anything like that.
"Excuse me."
At this time, a very polite voice came from the gate.
"Oh, it's really lively today..." Xia Ran glanced at it and said something.
A tall, slender professional woman with long orange wavy hair in a ponytail, glasses, a dark coat and a pencil skirt. outside the gate of the institute.
"I'm Terestina. This visit is for the group of comatose students who belonged to the Advanced Education Bureau that you took away. According to the contract authorization, we are now going to take back... ahem, Take him and them back for proper treatment..."
Professional women introduce themselves with friendly smiles on their faces.
Xia Ran, who came forward, nodded and glanced back. Misaka Mikoto, Saten Leiko, and Kamijou Touma were fully equipped, and they turned their heads and showed a kind smile: "You came just in time. , they happen to be here today."
Terestina was stunned for a moment, probably not expecting the other party to speak so well.
However, that's fine. It's too much trouble to avoid having to do it yourself.
Her smile became sweeter: "Really? It seems that I really came at the right time. Thank you for your understanding and support, and for your cooperation with our work..."
