Temperature Control in Academy City

Shirai-san suddenly appeared in mid-air, looked at a bun-haired girl who was suspended in the air, sighed and said.

"Don't worry, I'm very sensible. I didn't hurt any fish."

Pointing her finger at the heavy rain clouds in the sky, Natsume Sonoko said solemnly.

"That's not what I'm talking about. Never mind...just act quickly." Shirai said weakly.

Shirai-san cannot stay in the air for very long. Whenever his body is dragged downward by gravity, he will use space movement to reset himself.

But she soon discovered that a gentle current of air was holding her up in the air.

"If you can't hold on any longer, don't force it. No one wants to see anything happen to Natsume-san."

Shirai was silent for several seconds, somewhat curious about this way of staying in the air, before continuing after a while.

"It's okay, Shirai-san, don't underestimate me."

Shaking her head with some pride, Natsume Sonoko said with a very dramatic expression.

Ever since his abilities have been improving, Natsume has been feeling a little inflated.

However, this kind of expansion is more of a self-satisfaction, full of confidence in one's own abilities, just like every lv5.

"Okay. But how are you going to take it with you, Natsume-san?"

Shirai-san also felt a little annoyed and found that Natsume-san seemed to be developing like her elder sister, except that she was much easier to fool than her elder sister.

Perhaps due to excessive water, the clouds have reached the critical point for rainfall and there is even some rain falling.

This world is really magical. A few minutes ago it was a sparkling lake, but in just a few minutes it turned into an airborne force.

"It is indeed a little beyond our expectations, but it is still within our control."

Giving Shirai a reassuring look, Natsume lowered her head and thought for a while, and then she came up with a solution.

Shirai-san is a good planner and Natsume-san also has a lot of ideas. If you think about it this way, the two are actually quite similar.

"Is this the solution you came up with, Natsume-san?"

Shirai-san laid on the cloud-woven bed and changed her position comfortably.

Although they have known each other for a long time, they both still use honorifics, but it does not affect their relationship at all.

The main thing is that Natsume is too serious in some places, which is very similar to Hatsuharu, Shirai Kuroko couldn't help but think.

"By the way, Natsume-san's ability is really convenient."

Talking to herself, Shirai couldn't help but rub the clouds around her, and ended up with a face covered with water vapor.

"Ms. Shirai, are you satisfied with my service?"

The waiter Xiao Xia at the side showed just the right smile.

“Not bad. It would be better if massage services and fruit plates were available.”

In a daze, Shirai Kuroko stretched and said.

"Shirai-san, why are you suddenly talking to yourself there?"

Natsume Sonoko, who was busy working, couldn't help but look at Shirai-san in confusion and said.

Suddenly reacting, Shirai's sleepy eyes widened instantly, he rubbed his head and climbed out of the air bed.

“So I was dreaming.”

Shirai-san's face suddenly flushed, and she looked a little embarrassed.

"If Shirai-san doesn't wake up, I'm going to throw you down. Really, Shirai-san, you're so carefree."

Natsume had a look of disappointment on his face, and he didn't know whether Shirai was here to help or to sleep.

"Sorry, but that's where we are."

Shirai Kuroko straightened his expression and suddenly changed the subject.

According to Shirai's experience, Natsume would normally be led astray.

"Where? Speaking of which, we are almost at the meeting place of the Academic Society."

Subconsciously looking down, Natsume was stunned for a few seconds before continuing.

Because the dark clouds above our heads blocked out the sun and all the light, we could still roughly make out some of the scenes on the ground.

Along the way, Natsume almost moved the entire rain cloud here, using the rising air currents to hold back the falling raindrops, which made someone very tired.

The weight of the rain cloud has reached an exaggerated level, and every meter traveled requires a lot of computing power.

Moreover, due to the friction inside the cloud, tiny lightning was actually produced, and Natsume had to spend some time to deal with these things.

"How are Hatsuharu and the others? Can we start now?"

Natsume-san suddenly asked.

In fact, Natsume was also quite touched. The suggestions he made were completely based on his own abilities, but even so, everyone was willing to try. This might be the feeling of trust.

Whether it is for everyone or for one's own peaceful life every day, this rainstorm is inevitable anyway.

I also learned some things during the summer vacation. Natsume cannot leave Academy City, so he cares more about the safety of Academy City than others think.

"The discipline committee members have been deployed to the designated locations after marriage. They are very close to the work venue of the academic association and can accept the help of the staff at any time."

"By the way, second-year senior Shigefuku Shoho is here too." Shirai said with some surprise.

"Shigefuku-san is here too?"

Natsume Sonoko was in deep thought for a moment, and he did not tell her what happened here.

"Well, he said he wanted to help you, Natsume-san." At this point, Shirai-san looked at the girl with a bun in a strange way.

"And my elder sister has found the right raw materials and is developing a neutralizing agent from the ghost-chasing doctor in the underworld." Shirai continued.

At this moment, a strangely shaped cloud appeared above the Scholar's Sea, and the light around it suddenly dimmed.

The overall shape is an ellipsoid, but some parts are bumpy, and it is obvious that the craftsmanship is not very good.

"This is Natsume-san's ability. It's really amazing."

Senior Gufa opened the window and suddenly became absent-minded.

Although I had expected it, I was still shocked when I actually saw it.

If Misaka-senpai's special skill is hacking, then Natsume-san's special skill is controlling the weather.

Chapter 217 Heavy Rain

The windows of the Scholars' Association building were opened one after another, and heads popped out, looking curiously at the sky that had suddenly become gloomy.

Rain was falling continuously from the sky, all of which were leaking out from the gap in Natsume's ability. Before they knew it, the ground soon became wet.

"Senior Gufa, the surveillance cameras around the venue have been disrupted. They will only replay the footage from a while ago. I hope we can delay the other party for a while longer."

Hatsuharu-san, who was busy with something while sitting in the Discipline Committee, said with a sigh of relief.

The wreath on her head bloomed with bright colors as usual, attracting many attentive glances.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Gufa Meiwei nodded slightly, looking at the sky through the window, and now waiting for Natsume-san's action.

At this time, the dark well that the Scholars Association originally used to drain rainwater was mostly blocked by a gel-like substance, and rainwater gradually began to settle on it.

Even the drainage ditches around the road encountered similar problems at this time, with the drainage efficiency being hindered by debris.

The discipline committee members only dealt with the pipes that discharged rainwater, without affecting the normal sewage discharge, because the number of sewage pipes could not afford the work of draining rainwater.

In short, everyone wants to minimize the impact.

The work of the discipline committee members was very effective. Before Natsume's large army of rain was released, part of the academic society venue had a small water accumulation problem.

"Oops, some of the drains are clogged."

At this time, some staff members within the Academic Association also discovered the problem of water accumulation.

But before we could deal with and respond to the accumulated water in a timely manner, the weather changed suddenly.

Without giving people any time to react, the rain turned into a continuous rain curtain, and heavy rain fell into the venue in an instant.

"here we go."

After marriage, the senior sister took a deep breath, calmed her nervous mood, and took out a raincoat from her black schoolbag.

However, such a thin raincoat is completely useless in the face of such heavy rain.

The gaze suddenly turned to the side, and the married senior sister happened to exchange glances with the classmate Wannei next to her.

The three of them smiled knowingly, and their nervousness was immediately swept away.

"Everyone, now it's our turn to work. I am proud to work with you to stop this crisis."

Senior Gufa turned around and looked at everyone, her voice trembling slightly but extremely firm.

Like most people in Academy City, this city also carries Senior Gufa's memories of the past and her aspirations for the future.

The reason why discipline committees exist and why everyone is willing to take risks and sacrifice their own campus life is to protect these rare and precious things.

"Meiwei, let's work hard together."

The discipline committee member named Yanagi Bimei suddenly raised her fist and said with encouragement in her tone. She was Gufa Meiwei's roommate and also a senior in high school.

"Is this the Discipline Committee member?"

Shigefuku Shoho stood in the crowd, looking a little absent-minded with the rain gear he had prepared in his hands.

Looking at the discipline committee members gathered around her, she seemed to understand why the usually lazy Natsume classmate would agree to join.

But she suddenly became worried again. It must be very hard for Natsume in such heavy rain.

The heavy rain washed away the dust on the ground, and the air became fresh and natural under the wash of the rain.

This feeling of freshness does not bring people a pleasant feeling, but instead further highlights the density of the rain.

"Senior Gufa, the staff has already requested the use of rain repellent bullets from the security guards."

Soon, something unexpected happened. Hatsuharu discovered some updates about the venue staff on the Internet.

"Rain repelling bullets? We must notify Natsume-san immediately."

Senior Gufa said, somewhat startled.

"Don't worry too much. Teacher Huang Quanchuan and the others are temporarily confined for reflection. The guards in the seventh school district are now in a semi-resting state and will not react quickly. We still have enough time."

Uiharu added, comforting Gufa-senpai.

"But how's the situation with Misaka-senpai?" Hatsuharu asked hesitantly.

"It's okay. Misaka-senpai will definitely take good care of Phoebe."

The fully armed Riri Saten walked beside him, her whole body wrapped tightly, even with goggles on her eyes.

The raw materials have been collected, and the matter of the neutralizer is almost finished. Now we just have to ask the ghost-chasing doctor of the underworld for help.

In addition to protecting Phoebe, Senior Misaka is also responsible for rescuing Phoebe's sister Jenny when the Anbu uses the ability of "Psionic Diffusion".

As for them, in fact, no one present can guarantee that they can completely eliminate the power media in these driving armors.

I just hope to delay it a little longer so that the other party will notice it later and prevent the incident from happening as much as possible.

At this time in the sky, Natsume and his classmate also received news from Hatsuharu.

"Is it one of those big round rain-repelling bullets? Looks like we need to speed up."

It seems like I've heard this somewhere, Natsume Sonoko said, gesticulating up and down.

After straightening his face, Natsume opened a few more holes, causing the rainfall to increase further.

Shirai-san didn't go down to help either. As the girl with the strongest ability, she was responsible for Natsume's safety and to prevent someone from running out of computing power and falling from the sky.

Even if the parties do not feel that this is necessary.

The rain just avoided Natsume and the other person, and an invisible barrier prevented the rain from invading.

Of all the people present, perhaps only Natsume and her companions did not have to worry about getting wet.
