A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 954 Flying Dragon in the Sky
"It's no use. Senior, didn't you already try? The security guard won't believe it," Miyama Shakei said, shaking her head.

Although the pursuers behind them were armed, they were very restrained and did not fire a single shot during the chase. Moreover, they deliberately kept their distance in crowded places to avoid attracting the attention of the guards.

Furthermore, it seems that many cases have occurred today, and the guard force is under manpower, so it is difficult for them to pay attention to these unsubstantiated incidents.

More importantly, if they insist on calling the police and following the proper procedures, they worry that this might anger the bad guys and implicate their family members who have been arrested.

Therefore, the two of them had to rely on their own strength to fight off their pursuers and escape; and the escape route they took was designated by Miyama Shakei.

At this moment, the two seized the last opportunity to hide behind the flower bed. After calming their breathing a little, Miyama Sakage picked up the Polaroid camera hanging around her neck, pressed it against her forehead, and pressed the shutter.

"Hurry, hurry!" the girl urged repeatedly, "They're catching up soon!"

The intense running, coupled with the continuous activation of his abilities, made Miyama Shakei's face somewhat pale, but he knew the situation was urgent, so he gritted his teeth and endured it.

Miyama's ability to write images is a level 1 "mental writing ability." Although the ability level is low, it has the effect of "foreseeing the future"—in short, it is a "prophetic ability."

His ability is to see what will happen in the future.

However, due to his low ability level, his ability is greatly limited.

Until recently, the research institute that Miyama Shot collaborated with discovered a method to use Polaroid photos in conjunction with "prophecy," which made his ability controllable.

Specifically, it means that while activating the "reading and writing ability", the shutter is pressed to express the "reading and writing" part through the camera, thereby greatly reducing the burden on the brain.

Of course, the biggest drawback of doing this is that Miyama Sakyo himself cannot control what content he can actually film.

After a while, the Polaroid camera gradually produced the photos, and the girl quickly leaned over to take a look.

"What is this?!" the girl exclaimed upon seeing the photo. "Can your abilities manifest supernatural creatures?"

The photo shows a giant dragon swooping down from the sky, its mouth wide open, poised to bite.

It's more like a movie poster than a photograph.

"Does this dragon have any symbolic meaning?" the girl asked.

“I don’t know…” Miyama Shakei was also puzzled. “My photos can only show a certain scene in the future. They shouldn’t have the ability to create things that don’t exist out of thin air…”

As the enemy pursuers drew closer, the girl couldn't care less about anything else: "Judging from the background of the photo, it should be the 21st School District not far away—after all, the scenery is so beautiful—so, the prophecy means we can't go to the 21st School District!"

Based on past experience, Miyama's ability to depict shadows seems to only be able to predict "unfortunate events." Therefore, in order to obtain positive guidance, one must interpret the prophecy in reverse.

That's how the two of them arrived near the 21st school district.

It is precisely because of this roundabout approach that the already inaccurate predictions become even more ambiguous.

This is why girls might doubt the accuracy of Miyama's directions.

"No!" Miyama Seikage grabbed the girl's hem. "This time...we're going there!"

"Hey, Meishan, are you alright?" Noticing the boy's pale face and unsteady appearance, the girl panicked.

"I...I'm fine, please don't worry, senior..." Miyama Shake said, "I have a feeling we have to go to the 21st school district, we will definitely be saved!" The pursuers were already close by, and without thinking too much, the girl grabbed Miyama Shake and continued to run.

After running a few steps, the girl realized that the boy was in very poor condition, so she had no choice but to carry him on her back and run away as fast as she could.

Two muffled thuds sounded behind me.

It wasn't until she saw the ground suddenly break open that the girl belatedly realized—the pursuers behind her had opened fire!

I don't know if it was because the long chase finally exhausted the enemy's patience, or if the fact that this place was deserted allowed the enemy to finally use their weapons with impunity...

There was one thing she was very clear about—they had reached a dead end.

"Don't...don't stop, keep running!" Miyama Shakei said from behind.

"...You...you said..."

—You make it sound so easy!
The girl was already too exhausted to speak. She was completely drained of energy and now she had to carry someone on her back and keep running... If this child wasn't Kihara Tsurugi's good friend, she wouldn't have bothered with this.

"Just hold on... a little longer..." Miyama Sekie seemed to be in even worse shape than the girl. "Soon, soon we'll be rescued..."

—Saved? How could that be! There's no village or shop in sight, and not a soul in sight except for us and the enemy. Who's going to save us?
The girl sighed inwardly, thinking that only Kihara Ayaki could use "coordinate teleportation" to achieve that "falling from the sky" effect, appearing suddenly...

Thinking of this, the girl suddenly recalled the photo that Miyama had taken earlier—a dragon that only appears in fantasy stories descended from the sky and pounced on them.

It seems that even if something does fall from the sky, it might be there to harm us!

Thinking this, the girl glanced up at the sky without thinking.

A small black dot appeared in the field of vision and was rapidly growing larger...

"What...what is that?" So surprised, the girl even forgot to run away for a moment, and looked up at the sky in a daze.

A tremor ran down their backs, and Miyama Sekie seemed to be laughing: "Senior, we're saved."

"Saved? What kind of salvation is this?!" The girl trembled with fear. "Why are there really dragons in real life?"

A dragon, which should only appear in fantasy or mythology, was spreading its wings and swooping down towards them.

It wasn't just the girls who were startled; the pursuers behind them also stopped in their tracks, almost standing right next to Miyama Seikage and the others.

As ordinary humans outside Academy City, their values ​​and worldviews are significantly impacted more than those of the natives of Academy City.

After the initial shock, their first reaction was to raise their guns and fire, attempting to shoot down the dragon with bullets.

Unsurprisingly, their operation failed.

Although its combat record since its birth is pitiful, the dragon was ultimately bred as a biological weapon, so how could it possibly be hurt by a mere pistol?

The dragon landed on the ground, flapping its wings and easily sending the enemy flying. Only the girl remained, frozen in place, unable to move, terrified.
