Temperature Control in Academy City

"In order to fill this loophole, my partner generated a large amount of false social information to influence the other party's vision, which also happens to be Misaka's specialty."

Shokuhou-senpai didn't want to continue the topic of physical education class, so the conversation returned to the starting point, and she also passed the blame on a certain railgun.

Even if a large number of "personnel" bases were attacked, this part of information was widely present on the Internet and could not be cleaned up centrally, so the only way was to confuse the public through more specious information.

"But as long as 'personnel' send people to check these real and fake areas, there is a possibility of being discovered sooner or later. Especially since it is still the Daiba Star Festival, the number of witnesses will increase to a peak."

"It's more likely that the other party's personnel will coincidentally run into the sisters who are out without our knowledge."

Shokuhou-senpai added, a hint of worry appearing on her face.

If the other party wants to find the sisters, then the most likely reason is for the Misaka Network, which is also the most valuable thing on the sisters.

"Then we can only take the initiative."

Natsume seems to understand what Shokuhou-senpai means, but I don't know to what extent she has investigated the mastermind behind the scenes.

Since it is impossible to prevent the other party from finding the Misaka sisters, the simplest approach is to take advantage of this period of time to eliminate all those who are causing problems.

This is also what Natsume has always thought, although the criminals were eventually sent to the security building.

These things sound troublesome, but in order to sleep peacefully at night and continue her ordinary daily life, Natsume's choice is easy.

"I have already found out the information of the middleman. Be alert and keep an eye out for it."

Shokuhou-senpai read the memories of the 'personnel' members and repeatedly compared the information in her memories with the student list, and finally found someone who met the requirements.

"She died of a heart attack in a juvenile detention center two months ago. If we can find the person who faked her death and got her out of the detention center, we can probably find the mastermind."

Shokuhou-senpai's tone became serious, and she looked quite confident.

The opening ceremony of the Daihastar Festival ended more than ten minutes ago. Although the final result is a bit regrettable, we can only make the best of it.

To be honest, compared to the stereotyped product like the oath manuscript, Natsume prefers the courageous speech of Sogiita Gunba, especially the sudden appearance of colorful smoke, which was a rare highlight of the entire opening ceremony.

At this time, most of the 30,000-person venue had been emptied, with only a few tourists still stopping by, and perhaps some security robots spinning around.

A girl with a bun on her head was walking forward anxiously among the crowd. No one would have thought that this ordinary-looking girl was almost late for the first game.

Chapter 326 Synchronous Action

There was a ribbon tied on her forehead to hold her hair in place, and the hair at her ears floated back in the breeze.

As one of the lesser-known players in Tokiwadai Junior High School, Natsume Sonoko fully utilized her advantages and showed her strong strength in the first game.

"Natsume Sonoko from Tokiwadai won second place in this competition with a time of 1 minute 15 seconds 750 milliseconds."

The female voice coming from the radio station sounded very professional, and she used a sonorous and powerful tone to narrate the glorious achievements of a girl with a bun.

"Eh, only second place? You were already very fast."

Natsume pursed his lips with some concern. He felt that this was totally inconsistent with his expectations.

It is a little different from the normal 1,000-meter race. Due to the large number of participants and schools, the competition is actually divided into multiple batches, and everyone's results are calculated in the end.

In fact, Natsume is confident that she can complete the course within ten seconds, and if she tries her best, it might be even shorter.

However, due to the boring rule that both feet must be in contact with the ground in running competitions, Natsume had to pretend to step on the ground and swing his feet laboriously on the ground, which wasted a lot of time.

It's a pity that there is no separate flying competition in the Daihasei Festival, otherwise Natsume should be able to win the championship easily. At least in the junior high school group, no one can compare to her.

However, Natsume is already very satisfied with the second place result. This is probably the best result Natsume has achieved in sports activities so far.

The light and shadow on his face flickered, and a false illusion enveloped Natsume's face, making it difficult to see the slightly breathless face.

Even though she was just swinging her legs effortlessly, the girl still felt a little tired.

In the competition venue, the overwhelming number of photographic equipment received some light that was affected by humans, and a censored human face appeared one after another on the video screens of the equipment.

Only a vague outline could be seen on the face of the girl who was jumping and moving quickly on the track, which looked very strange.

In a foreseeable future, Natsume's actions will trigger some unpredictable events, such as urban legends.

And because it is related to the eighth place in Academy City, it seems that a series of problems will arise.

However, Natsume Sonoko, the person involved, seemed to be indifferent and was even preparing to submit a post to an urban legend website.

"Garden, this is for you."

A lady walked out from the crowd and handed over a bottle of water with a smile.

The lady named Tomoyo came all the way to Academy City specifically to watch her daughter's game.

And it was completely different from the sports meet of an ordinary school. There were all kinds of strange abilities, especially the first place winner, who could control the coefficient of friction and slide directly from the beginning to the end.

My daughter is not bad either, she just suffers from short legs, otherwise she would have jumped to the finish line long ago.

"What a pity, it was only a few seconds away."

Miss Tomoyo seemed to be brought up by the recent competition and spoke with some resentment.

"It doesn't matter. Participation comes first, and results come second."

Natsume unscrewed the cap of the water bottle with some difficulty and took a sip. In fact, she wanted to drink a beverage or something.

"I see, your score is indeed second."

"I looked at the schedule and all the morning matches are over. So, Ms. Sonoko, do you have any plans for next?"

The lady held her chin in her hand, thinking, and lowered her head to look at a girl with a bun.

Speaking of the height comparison between the two, Miss Tomoyo is obviously a larger version of Natsume-san, probably about the same height as Reiko, about 1.6 meters.

Natsume is still in a state of developmental stagnation. His height growth is extremely slow, and he is anxiously awaiting the arrival of puberty.

"What are the next plans?"

Natsume was slightly stunned, and her mind became inexplicably confused.

Her original plan was to take her mother to visit the restaurants in Academy City and take in some tourist attractions, but Shokuhou-senpai's words made her feel uneasy.

This uneasiness is not a sense of urgency in time, but rather a feeling that there are things that need to be solved, but you can't do anything for the time being. Natsume really needs her own intelligence system, and she doesn't like this situation.

I had similar feelings before, but the more I learned, the stronger this feeling became.

As long as Shokuhou-senpai reads the memories of those people in the juvenile reformatory, she will be able to find the mastermind behind the middleman's fake death and escape.

At Shokuhou-senpai's speed, she should be able to finish it by noon today, and even be able to participate in the afternoon competition as usual, thus creating a large number of alibis.

After finding the mastermind behind the scenes, Natsume, as a partner, has to prepare to do something for the Misaka sisters.

Natsume's feelings towards the Misaka sisters are actually quite complicated. At first, he wanted to help Misaka-senpai, but later on, he felt sympathy for the Misaka sisters.

After living with Reiko and the sisters for so long, it became a friendship or something, perhaps mixed with a sense of responsibility as the dorm supervisor.

No matter what, Natsume-san can't just turn a blind eye.

"Let's go to a western restaurant for lunch. I know a cheap and good one."

Retracting his thoughts, Natsume-san spoke absentmindedly.

"A western restaurant? But didn't Sonoko say this morning that she would take me to eat the maid's love bento and rice balls? The maid might still be waiting for you."

Miss Chise blinked her eyes, smiled faintly, and said thoughtfully.

The lady, who had studied psychology, knew that the girl's mind was wandering a little.

"Oh, I almost forgot."

Natsume-san reacted immediately.

I've ordered some rice balls and bento from Tsuchimikado-san, but I have to pick them up on time.

I heard that Tsuchimikado went out early this morning, and I don’t know what the results are.

"Then let's go to the Civic Park for a picnic today."

Thinking of the existence of those rice balls, Natsume said with some certainty.

One person's mind has two bodies that can move.

Natsume is extremely grateful for the existence of Lingzi, which allows her to do two things at the same time.

However, two bodies don't seem to be enough, and Natsume feels that he still has a lot to do.

Lingzi on the other side was still moving, and the two people's thoughts were at the same frequency.

However, Reiko seems to have changed her plan of following Misaka-senpai and returns to Misaka Apartment.

Although Misaka-senpai's safety is of concern, she is a person with super powers after all and has the ability to protect herself.

Natsume feels that the younger sisters need Reiko more, and it would be best to let the Misaka sisters give up their decision to go out these days and stay in the Misaka Apartment and dormitory.

...

Wearing a simple set of casual clothes and a pair of common sneakers, he looks no different from an ordinary tourist.

Reiko didn't get the summer school uniform of Tokiwadai, so she has been wearing the clothes bought by Natsume.

In the small closet in Misaka's apartment room, anything colorful basically belongs to Reiko, and she seems to be tending to be closer to Saten-san.

A rare trace of anxiety appeared on Daidai's face, and Lingzi couldn't help but quicken his pace, hurried back from the competition venue where Senior Misaka was.

Sure enough, I am still very worried.

I should have checked all the details with Shokuhou-senpai earlier. She actually did so many things in secret.

Moreover, Misaka sisters are very curious. They have discussed the Daihastari Festival with Reiko before, so they will definitely not be able to help but wander around today.

Really, the sisters' personality of liking to join in the fun must have come from a certain railgun, and it's a gene that is firmly engraved in their DNA.

Especially No. 9982 Misaka in my dormitory, who was still sorting out her Quata suit last night. I don’t know what her plans are.

Reiko's movement speed is very slow, at least that's what Natsume-san thinks.

Even if you use your ability to speed up, it's probably only at the level of a cleaning robot, but it's enough for traveling.

"Good morning, Reiko. I heard that you went out early in the morning. Misaka 14530 was curious about your behavior of going out and coming back."

Not far from Building 1 of the Misaka Apartment, Natsume ran into a Misaka sister who was sitting on the grass basking in the sun. Not far from her were a few other sisters lying motionless.

It seems that the sisters have developed the habit of sunbathing since a long time ago.

However, recently some of the sisters have become more and more extreme, tanning their skin to show off their personality.

The emotional program that Senior Sister Bushu implanted in the sisters seemed to have gradually taken effect, repairing some of the sisters' emotions and making them more like ordinary people. However, if one wants to completely possess a person's emotions, then a sufficient amount of time accumulation is required.

"That's not important. I have something very important to do. Everyone should stay in the dormitory obediently."

Lingzi's face suddenly took on a dignified look, attracting the attention of her sisters.

It's completely different from the Zero of the past.

After thinking for a while, Natsume and Reiko made a decision at the same time. She planned to tell her sisters some of the situations she knew now and let them stay in the apartment and the student dormitory.

Shokuhou-senpai only told her not to tell Misaka-senpai for the time being, but she didn't say that she couldn't tell the Misaka sisters.

As long as the sisters cooperate with Natsume Sonoko and the others, many problems can actually be avoided. After all, Natsume's favorite thing to do is to ask others for help.

Only Natsume can accomplish this task. Although Shokuhou-senpai is busy taking care of her younger sisters, she is actually not familiar with them.

As for Misaka-senpai, she had no idea at all, so she had to take action on her own.

Moreover, the Misaka sisters have a simplified version of the electromagnetic barrier. Although they cannot resist the level of mental control of Shokuhou-senpai, they don’t have to worry about their memories being read by some ability users with lower-level mental systems.

If you want to get this information from the Misaka network, you must first find your sister and then transmit or read the data.

Even if someone can simulate brain waves to a level similar to those of the sisters, they still need to know how to convert brain waves into electromagnetic waves, know how to connect to the Misaka network, and then pass through the Misaka network's firewall and register an account, and even prevent a loli administrator from banning the account and kicking the person out.

Therefore, there is no risk of this information being leaked easily.

"I have some very bad news for you all. There are some bad guys out there who want to do something bad to you. Their purpose is not clear yet, but it's probably to restart the experiment or something."

"So, until our lovely matron has sorted out these little problems, everyone should stay in their rooms."

With a more serious look on his face, Lingzi spoke with a solemn oath.

Although they are still unsure of the other party's true intentions, according to Natsume and the others' understanding, this is probably the only possibility. It is definitely not to obtain the computing power of the Misaka Network.

There was a feeling that it would never end, and Natsume felt a little depressed for some reason.
