Stray Chapter 33: Shocked! The strongest absolute ability is actually…
The process of waiting is always painful.
Four little girls are lurking in this alley, and although there are shadows, it is still abnormally hot and sweaty.
As time passed by minute by minute, the sun hanging high in the air also slowly changed its position, along the trajectory from east to west, indicating the change of time... However, they looked through the autumn water and did not wait until The appearance of the figure I hope to see.
This residential area is not particularly remote, but it is still far from the places where people come and go, and the pedestrians on the road are also sparse.
This is easy to understand. First of all, this is not a shopping street in a commercial area. It is just a residential area with low rent as its only advantage. Naturally, the flow of people cannot be so large... Especially in such a hot summer, people If you go to play, you will definitely not come to this place.
And the people who live in this place also go to other places to play. Even if they don't go to play, they will definitely squat at home instead of going out to bask in the sun.
So, this situation is not surprising, it can only be said that it is the most normal.
But that's what makes them particularly suspicious. After all, in a dark and remote alley, the four of them sneaked their heads out one by one, sneaking like thieves, looking at the people on the street outside. passing pedestrians.
Such a scene inevitably makes people think a lot. Fortunately, there are four lovely girls. Otherwise, there would be even fewer pedestrians.
After all, who isn't afraid of being caught in an alley by accident, being treated inhumanely, doing all kinds of things, and ultimately losing both money and money?
Academic City has never been known for its good law and order.
I don't know how long it took, when the fierce and poisonous sun gradually lost its scorching heat and became softer, when the breeze blowing on the hot street also began to have a hint of coolness, no longer as vicious as before people time.
Unconsciously, when the school is over, the blades of the windmills are also shining in the sunset.
"Misaka-senpai, do we have to wait any longer?"
The long black girl who was tortured by the hot summer heat for an entire afternoon probably felt that it was really impossible to go on like this, so Xiao Xiao raised her hand and asked a question weakly.
"I..." Misaka Mikoto opened her mouth, just looking at the mental state of the three friends around her, and finally lowered her shoulders in despair and didn't hold on any longer, "Maybe she really ran away, sorry, You've wasted a day for nothing..."
Her shoulder-length brown hair glowed red as if it were burning in the setting sun.
The girl's cheeks were also dyed red, and she didn't know if it was because of the sultry heat, or because she was angry, or because she felt ashamed.
Maybe there are. After all, at the beginning, Misaka Mikoto really felt confident and confident, and even because of her own inspiration, she connected the clues she had grasped and confirmed the performance of the general investigation direction. I felt a little excited and proud.
This is understandable. It is human nature, like many people do not check the strategy, relying on their own keen insight and reasoning ability to solve the puzzles in the game with a certain degree of difficulty, there will be a sense of achievement and pride generally.
What's more, she's just a little girl, it's not surprising that she would behave like this.
But now it seems that the plot did not develop as she imagined. Maybe that person ran away after committing the crime. Although Misaka Mikoto has the clues, it is all outdated information, but they are still stupid. Squatted here all afternoon!
If there are more conspiracy theories, maybe even the "random encounter" last night may have been deliberately planned, and that crazy guy is using her, so that after the crime today, he will be released. Suspicion, using a guise to distract the discipline committee members...
Anyway, the more I think about it, the more angry I get. Misaka Mikoto is just happy now—
Fortunately, I couldn't be sure before, so I didn't leak this information to the guards and the others, and just acted with Kuroko and the others. Otherwise, it would be a real shame.
"Okay, let's go, I'm sorry for letting you waste the first day of your vacation..." However, the tea-haired girl still felt very sorry, she looked at her friends around her, "Let's go, I'll treat you to a drink..."
"Don't say that, Misaka-senpai, actually, in fact, today's experience... um, that, I mean, it's also very, very interesting..."
Saten Leiko waved her hands again and again, and instead comforted Misaka Mikoto, but although she was very gentle and understanding, she seemed to stammer more and more when she spoke, as if she didn't believe it herself. own words.
Misaka Mikoto couldn't help laughing a few times, and she felt more and more embarrassed. She couldn't hold it on her face, but she knew that the tears were good intentions and not mocking.
She looked around at the expressions and mental states of her friends, and decisively waved to change the subject:
"Let's go, I remember there was a vending machine on the way I just came here..."
……
……
At the same time, on the street not far from the four.
"It took so much effort to let her go like this? What are you trying to figure out?" Yubiao Danxi hugged the document in his arms and followed the magician in front of him feebly. "Don't you think you're going to play hard-to-find and catch big fish with a long line?"
She remembered the scene not long ago, and stared at Xia Ran's back suspiciously, her eyes becoming more and more vigilant.
It was mainly Index who decided to leave alone, and said she was unwilling to continue acting with Xia Ran, and she refused to tell them what happened to her. She was very determined—
Really very resolute, even Xia Ran said that she would clean up the dust for her and invite her to have a good meal, the silver-haired nun only spent less than half a minute to make it resolutely After making a choice, she said that she owed this meal first, and she would come back to eat it later.
And the magician didn't force it, pretending that he didn't know anything and had no doubts, he said goodbye to the little nun with a smile, and watched her leave.
Index knows that she is not out of danger and doesn't want to implicate anyone.
And Xia Ran thinks that the degree of interference is enough. At least Index will not encounter any problems today. After all, Stier was sent to the hospital by himself, and Kanzaki Kaori should also be suspicious now. Hastily left teammates for action.
So he really doesn't need to stare at Index anymore. Since the little nun insists, he won't insist on it, and he will look suspicious...even if it is set up, it will collapse if it collapses. , but he still wanted to maintain it as much as possible.
Both of them have their own reasons, but Yubiao Danxi doesn't know, so from her perspective, it is really impossible to understand what this person is thinking.
This double ponytail will naturally make up its own mind. From the perspective of having a prejudice against someone, I think this should be another scum... This person is one of the routines to deceive girls.
"No, what are you thinking, how is that possible?" Xia Ran shook her head without turning her head, decisively denying such a thing.
"No?" The girl with two ponytails was still suspicious. She didn't believe that the other party really had no idea. Otherwise, it would be really difficult to explain this guy's series of behaviors.
"Yes, it didn't take a lot of effort." The magician turned around and repeated very seriously.
“…”
“…”
This kind of person really can't get along well.
Jie Biao was silent for a while: "I think it is necessary to remind you that she is not yet an adult. Although Academy City is equivalent to a small independent country, the laws in this area are also very perfect."
Three years to start? Maximum death penalty?
"The law can't stop me..."
The thoughts flashed through his mind, and Xia Ran continued to move forward with disapproval. He actually had no idea about Index's little silver-haired nun, and the purpose of intervening was mainly to interfere with the plot. , trying to cause some change to find the opportunities you need.
He is not someone else's **** and is also qualified to be a chess player.
However, these things are not suitable to tell this girl, not to mention that there are stagnant loops everywhere in the air, Aleister must have a part of her attention now paying attention to herself, even if it is He told Jiubiao Danxi, but the other party couldn't understand or believe it.
Of course, there's no need to say it, so he'll just reluctantly, bear the humiliation, and bear the slander.
It doesn't hurt or itch anyway...
"Is this a criminal declaration?"
Jiebiao Danxi took a deep breath. She didn't know how many times she had done such an action subconsciously today, and only in this way could she barely restrain the pressure in her head.
She's already thinking about calling the police, but unfortunately it shouldn't help.
"No... Then again, have you thought about it for such a long time?"
The magician looked at the drink vending machine by the road not far away, and the four exhausted and listless girls surrounding the vending machine. said:
"One course of treatment is enough for recovery, and you can start right now if you want."
"No."
The girl with two ponytails responded indifferently.
"Huh? Haven't you figured it out yet?"
Standing in line behind the four girls in front, Xia Ran frowned and turned to look at her.
"Could it be the symptoms of psychological shadows and trauma that can develop feelings after spending many years together? It's been so long, so you're reluctant to throw it away?"
Jie Biao Danxi rolled his eyes, not wanting to answer the man's question anymore.
"No, think about it again, you can recover after a course of treatment, it's just a blink of an eye, and you can become the eighth person!" Xia Ran worked very hard to sell her conscience course, "Being a CEO, It is not a dream to become Bai Fumei and reach the pinnacle of life!"
"Pfft..."
A black long straight girl in the front finally couldn't help laughing out loud. The laughter seemed hearty and vigorous. Then, the girl and her friend next to her subconsciously turned around and looked at the The two lined up behind them.
Then——
"Huh?"
Satian Leiko blinked, her expression seemed to be somewhat puzzled. Why did she always feel that the young man behind him was lining up and talking strangely to his companions. He seemed to be a little familiar, right? Where have you seen it?
She instinctively looked sideways, looked at her friend beside her, and found that Chuchun Shili also had a puzzled look on her face, as if she was a little hesitant. She felt that this person was familiar, but she couldn't remember what was going on for a while
It can only be said that in the hot summer, after squatting under the fierce sun for so long, their current mental state and thinking ability seem to be a little sluggish, and their state is depressed to a certain extent. Although there is no heat stroke, But it's not too far off.
As a result, I was a little confused, and my mind couldn't turn around for a while.
And Misaka Mikoto is also in the same state at this time, and she is competing with the vending machine, annoyed, pounding the position near the coin slot with her fist: "What's the matter with you! Give me a little reaction!"
It seems that it is a vending machine in Academy City, whose overall technology is more than 20 or 30 years ahead of the outside world. Once again, there is a phenomenon that only collects money and does not do anything. No matter how the girl with tea hair beats and beats, the bulky and huge machine will not work. Just stood there motionless without a word, as if mocking her useless childish behavior.
Misaka Mikoto, who was in a bad mood because of what happened just now, is now even more eager to invite her friends to drink a drink to make up for her guilt. Shaking and even kicking the vending machine.
However, Shirai Kuroko hugged her waist tightly and stopped him: "Sir, don't do this...don't do this, elder sister..."
This is basically the situation.
The daily life of a girl's middle school student?
Thinking about this, Xia Ran also politely nodded to Zuotian Leiko and Uichun Shiri who turned back: "Hello."
"You... hello..."
The two little girls who were still puzzled didn't have time to recall the key memory, and were interrupted by his sudden friendly greeting. They could only blushed and nodded, and responded somewhat not used to it.
After all, if you only look at the appearance, Xia Ran is indeed worthy of the evaluation of "he is like a jade, empty teaching is full of fruit and a car", and his temperament is detached and distorted.
It's normal for a girl who is not familiar with the world to have an ups and downs heart.
"Okay, I mainly don't believe in your type of ability, who knows what you will do to my memory in the process..." Jiebiao Danxi interrupted impatiently, "It's better to do your business as soon as possible than me, I've already delayed most of the day..."
As she spoke, she gestured to the document she was holding in her arms.
"This kind of thing can't be rushed, you have to think about it carefully..." The magician waved his hand and continued to perfunctory.
"What are you thinking? You don't even know how to fill in your own information?" Double ponytail lowered his head weakly.
"The main reason is that I don't know how to fill in my abilities. This guy Aleister's method of collecting information is really too direct and rude, and he has no technical content at all." The magician put his hand on his chin and thought about it. He said, "Even if he said that I don't want to be a student, he still wants to give me the identity of a capable person, and I want to think of the nickname..."
"Since you are so disgusted, you can just deal with it yourself, can't you just fill in something?"
Jie Biao Danxi glanced ahead and found that the black long and straight girl and the girl with a flower plate on her head were listening curiously to their conversation.
She originally wanted to stop it, but she felt that since this person didn't intend to keep it a secret, she didn't need to do anything extra.
"That's not good. I'm the kind of person who is very particular about naming names in games. I can't talk to you guys who don't want to dress like a person in the cutscenes." Xia Ran shook her head repeatedly. "There are also nicknames, etc., and you must have momentum, so that everyone knows that they can't mess with me..."
"Then how do you plan to get your nickname?"
Jiebiao Danxi pouted, but the nicknames of those superpowers flashed in his heart.
Accelerator, Atomic Collapse, Psychological Mastery, etc., all express their abilities and strengths very well. What kind of nickname will this person give himself?
"How about being called "Feng Ling Yue Ying"? "
“…”
“…”
"Is this the name that everyone knows they can't mess with?" the girl with two ponytails wondered.
"Isn't it?" The magician opposite seemed more puzzled than she was.
