Temperature Control in Academy City

"The wounds were on the right shoulder, left side of the abdomen, right thigh, and right calf. The injury on the right calf was more serious, and the heat it emitted was lower than that of the other parts."

In just a few breaths, Natsume already knew Shirai's current condition.

Shirai is now hiding in the bathroom of the dormitory, bandaging her wounds. She just fell, so she is now sitting on the floor with her body bent.

Natsume suddenly felt a surge of heartache in his heart. Although he said that he hated this classmate, he still cared about this classmate very much in his heart.

It is very common for a discipline committee member to get injured, and taking the initiative to fight with criminals is a high-risk thing.

There are many criminals who possess firearms or are simply people with special abilities.

This is not the first time that Shirai has been injured, but this is the first time that he has been injured to this extent with so many wounds all over his body.

Natsume suddenly remembered the scene when he agreed to let Senior Gufa join the Discipline Committee. His original idea was to hope that Shirai and the others would suffer less injuries.

However, due to several conditions set at that time, Natsume is actually still relatively independent of the discipline committee system and is a discipline committee member who serves out of interest.

But many people actually know that the eighth person has joined the Discipline Committee, because Natsume sometimes wears the Discipline Committee armband openly, and it has even spread widely as an urban legend.

But even so, Shirai was still seriously injured, which made a certain bun-head feel that he had to do something.

"Shirai-san is bandaging it secretly. It seems the criminal has not been caught yet."

Natsume looked at Shirai-san who was separated from him by a wall in a daze, and was thinking about something in his head.

Although the discipline committee members have certain law enforcement powers, they are students after all, and most of the dangerous work is still left to the security guards.

If the higher-ups knew that Shirai was seriously injured, they would definitely stop her from taking action, so Shirai probably hasn't caught the criminal yet.

Chapter 240: Lightning Reception Force

It was night time, and Shirai Kuroko's slightly pale face turned red under the LED lights on the building's wall.

He touched the ground with one foot and then his injured right foot. Shirai couldn't help but grit his teeth and turned on his mobile phone to confirm the next location to be checked.

According to the simulated escape route provided by Hatsuharu, if the other party wanted to escape in an environment like Academy City where there is dense surveillance and positioning by satellites.

Then it is necessary to go through some secret passages and alleys, the so-called blind spots, to avoid the ubiquitous surveillance probes, and even use the complex environment to avoid satellite surveillance.

And if these blind spots are connected into some roads that can leave the Academy City, then we can roughly simulate several passages to leave the Academy City.

"There is no time left. Even if Aoki Yuzuki takes a while to rest after each move, we are almost reaching the border of Academy City now."

With a reluctant expression on her face, Shirai-san began to speed up her movements.

Having obtained a lot of useful information from Hatsuharu, she now basically has the information about the guy who injured her.

Aoki Yuzuki is a second-year girl from Kirigaoka with a powerful ability, whose ability is 'coordinate movement'.

Suspected to have suffered psychological trauma, he is unable to move himself continuously.

The basic rule of spatial movement is to let the "moved object" push away the "object at the target position", ignoring the influence of the object's material.

After moving your body, there will not be a terrible situation where your body is mixed with other substances. Instead, it is equivalent to letting your body cut the original substance. For example, Shirai can let paper cut through reinforced concrete pillars.

This also means that if one moves incorrectly and ends up cutting through some heavy objects, there is a high possibility that one will be buried underneath instantly, which would at least result in serious injuries.

Shirai guessed that the girl named Aoki Yuzuki might be in this situation.

This is not uncommon among those with the ability to move through space, but that person's situation seemed to be particularly serious.

After getting familiar with his opponent's situation, Shirai felt that he could win as long as he could paralyze the opponent in the first place, unlike before when his opponent took the initiative.

The most convenient person who can deal with space movers is himself who is also a space mover.

Because users of spatial abilities cannot move with each other, this also means that the opponent cannot move people or fill them with foreign objects once the coordinates are locked, as they do with other users of abilities.

Shirai Kuroko's body squeezed into the eleventh dimension, and the space was squeezed and shattered like pieces of paper, but while she was calculating, her brain began to tremble involuntarily.

The Absolute Ability Plan allows Accelerator to reach level 6 by using Misaka Mikoto's clone.

It turns out that those fake elder sisters I had seen before were actually like this, and the real elder sister had been going out early and coming back late those days.

As he thought about it, Shirai clenched his fists tightly and couldn't help biting his lips.

She actually knew some things, such as the collapsed building in the Seventh District that belonged to Miki Construction Group and the iron sand piled up nearby, the rumor that Accelerator was defeated even after swinging the building, and the extremely abnormal astronomical phenomenon that day.

Shirai recalled the desperate words spoken by Aoki Yui when she was facing him.

Whether it was to distract herself or for some other reason, those words did make Shirai lose the faith to continue the pursuit. It turned out that the elder sister had been enduring such pain.

"Onee-sama is probably looking for the box that was stolen by Aoki Yui. Kuroko will surely be able to help."

Shirai checked his injuries again and found that they did not affect his ability for the time being, so he felt relieved.

More than ten kilometers away from the outer wall of Academy City, there is an entrance to an abandoned nuclear research laboratory somewhere in the Tenth District.

In order to avoid the ubiquitous surveillance, Aoki Yui and her companions chose the Tenth District, which had the worst security and the worst facilities in Academy City, as a breakthrough point.

But just when Aoki Yuzuki was about to take a rest and put down herself and her own people, she encountered a troop sent by Academy City.

On the ground of this abandoned research institute, armed men were lying in all directions, wailing in pain.

Many people experienced varying degrees of swelling in their bodies, and it was suspected that someone had transferred foreign objects into their bodies. Although it was not fatal, it paralyzed their combat effectiveness.

This was a completely out-of-specification battle, and even experienced personnel could not avoid it for a while. A simple contact resulted in a considerable number of casualties.

If you want to avoid being in such a tragic situation due to coordinate movement, the simplest way is to keep running so that the opponent can only recalculate the target's coordinates again and again.

But this method is just a drop in the bucket, because their movement speed is still slow compared to the calculation of the ability user, and they can hit the target with just a slight correction.

As the light of a certain military flashlight flickered, the troops quickly found a way to deal with it.

Flash bombs filled the sky and began to wreak havoc throughout the institute. Everything in sight turned white, and the noise could be seen clearly even a kilometer away.

Wearing gas masks, noise-canceling headphones, special protective glasses, and special sound capture equipment, an elite team once again entered the facility.

"The goal has been lost. I repeat, the goal has been lost."

And just moments after entering, the team searched every corner but could not find any team that attempted to leak Academy City intelligence.

Their purpose was not to recover the remains of the tree diagram designer, but to eliminate Aoki Yuuki and his group who had exchanged intelligence with the outside world.

It seems that the remains of the tree diagram designer did not seem to receive much attention from the top management of Academy City, and were just wishful thinking of some researchers.

"Those people are Academy City's Lightning Welcoming Force. They are really difficult to deal with."

After using the ability to move coordinates once again, Aoki Yui's stomach began to churn.

After taking a look at the nearby wall, Aoki Yui's face suddenly turned pale.

Around her were several companions who had moved here beforehand. They all looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old, about the same age as Aoki Yui.

Noticing the actions of the armed men, Aoki Yui reacted immediately, otherwise it would be too late when the flash bomb fell.

She couldn't use her ability in that bright environment because she needed to use her vision to lock onto the target's coordinates.

"It's okay, Yui-sama. We are not far from where we will meet up with the 'Science Society'."

One of the boys had tears in his eyes, probably because he was blinded by the flash of the flash bomb, but the situation didn't seem serious.

This 'scientific society' is the outside force they have secretly contacted.

"I'm fine. This place is only a hundred meters away from where we were just now. We still need to move."

"Find a car first, and then use your ability when you reach the next heavily monitored area."

A burst of dense bright light was seen from afar, and Natsume was attracted by the sudden light.

By the time they got closer, the light had become dim, and Natsume Sonoko found armed men lying all over the ground, their stomachs abnormally swollen.

After taking a quick look at the surroundings, I felt that it was most likely the work of someone with space system abilities.

Of course, Natsume didn't come here to hang out for nothing. She came here to cause trouble.

Words like causing trouble seemed inappropriate for a young lady from Tokiwadai, but she just wanted to send that guy to the security building.

She will catch the people that Shirai-san can't catch.

If you resist, she won't be polite either, because you are a person with special abilities.

A certain bun hairstyle looks ordinary, with no special features except that he is short and has a big bump on his head, but he will be in trouble if he really makes people angry.

After taking the initiative to ask Hatsuharu about some information, Natsume also got a rough map of the route.

While Shirai-san was still moving hard somewhere, Natsume-san had already started checking the blind spots in the 10th District.

Although it is common for discipline committee members to get injured, Natsume still feels uncomfortable after hurting Shirai like that.

What also concerns Natsume is that the guy is the one who has the ability of the space system that appeared before, so the problem with Misaka-senpai can be solved together.

Chapter 241: The girl fell to death after being attacked

There was a strong smell of heavy metals and gunpowder in the air, and thick solid particles were mixed in the gas, as if one breath contained half of the periodic table.

He controlled his body to fly a little higher, but he couldn't help pinching his nose. Natsume had little resistance to the bad environment.

After thinking about his approximate location, Natsume recalled the simulated route that Hatsuharu had provided earlier.

If you continue along the route of the Tenth School District, there are not many areas that can be called blind spots. The closer you get to the edge of the Academy City, the more complete the surveillance and defense facilities become.

If we don't advance along the blind spot area, I'm afraid the opponent would have been accurately locked by Academy City long ago.

The armed personnel on the ground did not find anything unusual. They just investigated the situation and then began to retreat.

Natsume Sonoko inexplicably felt a sense of urgency towards these armed men.

It's not that he was worried about the weapons in their hands, as they couldn't hit him anyway, but he had a preconceived notion that these people should be the personnel sent by Academy City to search for the wreckage.

Natsume felt that the remains of the tree diagram designer must not be allowed to be taken by these armed men at all costs.

Since the experiment has ended, there is no need to come out from time to time to show your presence and make everyone feel uncomfortable.

What should disappear should disappear completely.

Thinking of Misaka-senpai who left in a hurry during dinner, Natsume Sonoko's face showed a hint of determination.

Misaka-senpai is really not honest. It's obviously more efficient to act together, and she is actually happy to help.

While flying in the air, a guy with a ball-shaped head lowered his head to check the time. There was still more than an hour before the lights in the Tokiwadai student dormitory were turned off.

Without wasting time, Natsume spread his wings, and a blinding wind blew around him, sweeping up an endless area of ​​air.

The raging waves are hidden in the dark night, just like a drop of ink falling into the sea. No matter how loud the movement is, it is just like the waves that can be seen everywhere in the sea.

Although Natsume is a little bolder than before, he is still unwilling to go home late due to the pressure from the dorm supervisor.

During the period before and after the Daihastari Festival, the dormitory supervisor is particularly nervous. Even Shirai-san has to go back on time every day to punch in, so it is better to finish things quickly and go back to bed.

"I almost forgot one thing."

Natsume Sonoko's flapping wings suddenly stopped for a moment. She felt in her pocket and took out the neatly folded and wrinkled discipline committee member's armband.

When he opened the armband pin, the needle almost poked him. After he put it on, it hung loosely on Natsume's slightly thin right shoulder.

It doesn't look as heroic as when Shirai-san puts it on. Instead, it falls below the cuffs. But the girl with the bun feels good about herself.

This time, she had to capture the person for Shirai, so naturally she had to do it as a member of the Discipline Committee.

Even if it is against the rules for Shirai-san to interfere in such crimes outside the school, it doesn't matter because she is not breaking the rules anyway.

"Where are we now?"

Aoki Yui was sitting quietly in the truck, with a few of her companions looking nervous behind her.

The closer we got to the outer wall of Academy City, the more uneasy we felt.

"We are currently at the junction of the 10th and 11th school districts, only a few kilometers away from a freight transfer center."

"This freight center has a canal that goes directly to the outside of Academy City. The people from the 'Science Society' will meet us there." Someone answered.

However, something was wrong from the very beginning. There was clearly only one road in front of us, but the navigation indicated that we had deviated from the direction. Perhaps there was something wrong with the machine.

The truck suddenly jolted violently, followed by a sudden brake. Everyone's bodies suddenly fell forward, and for a moment there was widespread wailing in the truck.

"what happened?"

"Something is blocking the way ahead."

When I got off the car, I saw a wide earth wall suddenly appearing on the straight road, which was particularly eye-catching under the street lights and moonlight.
