Temperature Control in Academy City

By the way, is the senior sister stalking someone?

There was almost no possibility of mistake. Natsume Sonoko looked at her senior with a strange look on her face. The Quata costume on her body alone was enough to expose her completely. There was no need to compare the similarity of the aim force field.

Misaka-senpai's body could not help but straighten up, pressing almost seamlessly against the outer wall of the hospital. The slight electric current released from her body allowed her to move freely on the wall with ease.

She seemed to notice that the scarred doctor had changed his direction, and in the blink of an eye she jumped over the outer wall and came to the aisle where Natsume and the others were.

"Oh no! I actually met Natsume-san and the Ghost Chaser Doctor here."

When he encountered the Ghost Chasing Duo coming towards him, a certain Bilibili was immediately startled and hurriedly pulled his hat down.

Trying hard to pretend to be a stranger, Misaka Mikoto lowered her head and walked quickly past the two of them until she had completely walked the entire aisle. Misaka-senpai's sweaty little face immediately revealed an expression of relief.

If Natsume saw me like this, my image as a senior would be completely ruined.

Sighing something in her heart, Senior Misaka soon recovered from her anxious mood. She even quickened her pace to chase the suspected doctor who was gradually disappearing from her sight.

After communicating with Shokuhou Misaki, Misaka Mikoto learned some information about the Indian Poker incident. This doctor seemed to be an important link in it. The real culprit who caused Natsume to be attacked at school was hiding behind him.

In fact, Misaka-senpai was secretly tracking down this guy yesterday, but because of the large-scale coma incident, she was also affected.

"Just pretend you didn't see anything."

A certain girl with bun-like hair forced herself to resist the urge to say hello to Misaka-senpai, and tried to pretend that nothing had happened, and continued to familiarize herself with her new watch with her head down.

Senior Misaka must be very embarrassed. A certain girl with a bun-haired look is thoughtfully considering something for her senior.

"The premise is that if you agree to the next treatment, it will definitely seriously affect the speed of your ability development, Natsume."

"And ability development is a very important thing for people with abilities, so I want to ask for your opinion first."

After looking at the sky outside the window, the Ghost Chaser Doctor continued.

Chapter 595 Physical Examination

My nose was filled with the disgusting smell of disinfectant, and my clothes were changed into the common hospital gowns.

Walking barefoot on the floor, a cool feeling kept flooding into Natsume's brain.

In order to prepare for the upcoming full-body examination in advance, the constant temperature layer that had been surrounding the body was temporarily removed at the request of the Underworld Soul Chaser doctor.

In front of her was a white inspection machine, which looked like a life-support chamber. Some pipes were connected to one end of the machine in a messy manner, and various devices with flashing lights were placed not far from it.

These seemed to be things that were transported from the Ghost Chaser's research institute. Even the room she was in was temporarily vacated and set up.

However, this life support chamber was not filled with any nutrient solution or the like. There was only a small bed covered with a white blanket and a pillow. A strange helmet filled with various wires and electrodes was quietly placed on the bed.

Moreover, the new watch on her hand seemed to be part of the examination. It would continuously record various data in her blood during the subsequent examinations, and then share it with the terminal computer of the Ghost Chaser Doctor.

"I suddenly feel so nervous."

Natsume Sonoko swallowed her saliva and clenched her fists tightly.

She suddenly felt an inexplicable pressure in her heart, just like an ordinary student who was about to take an important exam but forgot to review last night.

Silently repeating the doctor's previous instructions to her, Natsume Sonoko's expression instantly became focused. She needed to follow the established process to complete a general examination of her body and brain.

According to the ghost-chasing doctor, the purpose of this machine is to digitize Natsume's brain activity level.

At the same time, the watch and the nanorobots injected into the body in advance are used to collect data such as oxygen consumption, blood sugar levels, intracranial pressure, neurotransmitter exchange rate, etc., to ultimately determine the extent to which the brain is plundering the body.

Under the instruction of the Ghost Chaser Doctor, she needs to continuously increase the consumption of her brain, that is, to continuously increase the use of computing power from zero until she goes all out.

At this time, there is no need to actually use your ability to make a mess around you. You can get a similar effect by just deducing the formula in your head.

Only after obtaining these basic data on brain function can the Ghost Chaser doctor proceed to the next step of treatment and develop a more reasonable brain development inhibition plan.

In fact, if you want to find a balance point that can inhibit the brain without interfering with normal operation, you must have a comprehensive understanding of Natsume's brain condition.

In Academy City, anyone who can clearly understand the brain of a person with special abilities can be called the experiment supervisor of the corresponding person with special abilities. Doctor Hell Soul Chaser is now acting as the experiment supervisor of Natsume Sonoko, and understands some of the laws governing the operation of the other person's brain.

The only difference is that the purpose is not to carry out normal development, but to suppress it instead.

"Brain Development Suppression Program."

Natsume Sonoko was muttering something while waiting blankly for the hatch of the inspection machine to open.

She was actually still a little hesitant in her heart, as developing her abilities had long become part of her life, but in the end she did not reject the doctor.

Natsume, who has always been slow in physical reaction, now clearly feels one thing. Yesterday's exaggerated progress has caused very serious impact on her body. It is no longer as difficult to detect as before, like a frog in boiling water.

Once her body's condition became irreversible, Natsume suddenly felt that she might actually die.

It was not until this time that Natsume became a little panicked, and the smell of death suddenly lingered in his nose.

Everything happened so suddenly. Natsume's body, which had been barely holding on, became unable to sustain itself within a day, leaving him with almost no time to accept the current situation.

The adults' previous worries were proven to be correct. Fortunately, although Natsume didn't care, he was very cooperative, so we were prepared in advance. In short, the situation didn't seem to be as bad as it could be.

"Compared to developing any abilities, I still prefer being with everyone."

"If I die like this, everyone will be sad. And I don't want to die at all, just like I don't want anyone else to die."

Taking a deep breath, Natsume Sonoko stepped into the inspection machine in front of her without hesitation.

It seemed that Natsume was not used to sleeping on such a hard thing. He struggled for a long time before finding a more comfortable position, wasting more than a minute.

When things finally quieted down, he hurriedly put on the strange helmet, and then nervously watched the hatch of the machine slowly close.

Fortunately, Natsume has never had any problems like claustrophobia. He can still maintain a normal breathing rate when lying inside, and waits obediently for the instructions from the ghost-chasing doctor.

If she regarded the problem at hand as a new incident, she would surely be able to solve it successfully again. Lying on the small bed, Natsume Sonoko couldn't help thinking about something.

The only difference is that this time the opponent has changed from a real enemy in reality to Natsume himself.

As for the bad guy who caused Natsume Sonoko's current situation last night, he must not be found by her, otherwise he will definitely suffer the consequences.

However, Natsume Sonoko will definitely not be able to find the real mastermind behind this incident. Miss Hitomi who developed the automation program has long disappeared in the past, leaving only some traces left.

The hanged man who transferred the research results of these pupils to Natsume Sonoko might not have been able to foresee the occurrence of such a thing. This was probably just a miraculous event that happened unexpectedly due to the accumulation of countless daily things.

Also because of the existence of Natsume, this kind of accident has a greater chance of becoming a reality.

In this way, one of the masterminds behind this incident is actually Natsume Sonoko herself. Because of her existence, the entire universe and even the world were induced in the direction she expected.

"Everything is ready, let's start the inspection now."

"Natsume-san, please don't use your ability yet. I need to record the data of your brain and body when you are in a relaxed state."

At this time, the voice of the Hades Chaser came from the communication device nearby.

"I see."

A guy with a bun hairstyle said in a cooperative tone.

There are huge risks in allowing others to collect your brain data, and Natsume knows this better than anyone else.

However, if the other party was a ghost-chasing doctor, Natsume Sonoko would be more likely to accept it.

If she had to go through this kind of thing anyway, it would undoubtedly be more in line with Natsume Sonoko's wishes if she had someone she trusted do it.

Chapter 596 Data

The level of brain activity is a relatively basic data among all the data of people with special abilities, which does not include more important things such as Natsume Sonoko's thinking habits, ability formulas, specific parameters of personal reality, etc.

But these data alone are more than enough to treat physical health problems caused by abnormal brain development.

Real-time images of brain waves are continuously received by the terminal computer, and data intelligence inside the body also appears on the screen.

The flashing data curves continued to extend up and down, and each different marking color represented a piece of data of a girl with a bun. The densely packed data almost occupied a large area of ​​the screen.

The ghost-chasing doctor of the underworld carefully compared the changes in various data, with a look of surprise constantly appearing on his cheeks, and he became more and more worried about the health condition of a girl with a bun.

It was worse than he had originally expected. No, it was much worse.

All the data did not look like that of a normal girl. The aggressiveness of that brain was far more serious than he thought.

To put it in a simple and clear way, Natsume Sonoko's brain has gradually deviated from the category of a normal superpower user and is slowly developing in a more incredible direction, so the consumption of body nutrients is almost incomparable to before.

It turned out to be the case.

The Ghost Chaser of the Underworld finally understood.

The girl in front of him was developing uncontrollably towards becoming a person with so-called absolute ability. Although she still had a long way to go to reach that level, the trend was already evident.

Obviously, the current Academy City does not have the conditions required to train and maintain a level 6, but various random experiments, including the Absolute Ability Plan, are still emerging one after another. The Underworld Soul Chaser's brows slightly frowned, and he seemed to be increasingly dissatisfied with Aleister's behavior.

From the perspective of the Hades Chaser, the changes in the girl before him could only be the work of Aleister.

If one wants to truly create a person with absolute ability who can comprehend the will of God in a human body, the price and sacrifice required should not be underestimated.

Just maintaining the body of the ability user from collapsing during the evolution period is a topic that needs to be studied carefully.

According to the normal research route, allowing Accelerator to become an absolute ability user in two hundred years is actually the most scientific choice. However, most researchers do not consider the life and health of the mice, and various plans that force growth are just to save research time and funds.

Especially those guys who were given the name of Muyuan. All they had in their heads was constantly exploring the potential of abnormal technology to please their king and themselves, and they were hysterically striving for new peaks that could be reached.

The same goes for Natsume-san. Even though he also has the potential to become a user of absolute ability, it still takes two hundred years to develop his ability. Any development speed faster than this will continuously reduce the possibility of the experimental subject's survival before being promoted.

But in fact, it is impossible for normal humans to live beyond two hundred years, and the most scientific choice is actually the most unacceptable.

"It looks like I need to have a good talk with Aleister."

"As a doctor, I cannot agree with this behavior of wantonly creating new patients and treating those children as toys."

Although he was thinking about something in his mind, the Ghost Chaser Doctor did not stop his hands and continued to concentrate on collecting various data of the girl in front of him.

The various curves reflected colorful lights in his pupils, and he had already made some simple plans for the next suppression plan.

It seems that he understands some of Aleister's methods, or that he is protecting Natsume Sonoko.

All the machines here have been cut off from the outside world, forming a completely independent closed network. The collected relevant information will only be stored in the terminal computer in his hand and the supercomputer behind it that provides computing services.

Moreover, Hades Chaser also knew that his current actions could hardly be hidden from the sight of Aleister.

However, until now, no intervention force has been sent to forcibly take away the guy with the ball head. It is obvious that his suppression plan has been tacitly approved by the other party.

"Do you know that you have gone too far?"

The ghost-chasing doctor muttered to himself.

The hands of the watch moved in circles, and the inspection machine, which made a low noise, ran at high intensity for more than two hours. The ghost-chasing doctor also sat motionless in front of the terminal computer for two hours, compiling a large amount of data and intelligence into a book, which eventually turned into a real treatment plan.

The process of completing a series of instructions seems too boring and tedious, and each step requires concentration and unreserved cooperation.

The long process and boring feeling tortured a certain girl with a bun on her head, but she gritted her teeth and didn't make any complaints.

She knew that this was a necessary process to fully understand the brain of a person with super powers, and that the ghost-chasing doctor was also working hard on his job.

The shoulders on both sides were aching from the small bed behind her, her little head was buzzing with the sounds of various instruments running, and the girl's shriveled stomach once again made a stubborn gurgling sound.

It’s too bad. If today’s inspection is not over yet, Natsume will miss dinner in the student dormitory restaurant again.

Although the watch given by the Ghost Chaser Doctor has been replaced with a new nutrient solution container, which has greatly alleviated the feeling of weakness in the brain caused by lack of sugar, it is still unbearable to not eat.

It seems that the inner call has been answered.

After completing the last instruction, the hatch of the inspection machine finally opened slowly, and Natsume Sonoko once again saw the ugly face of the ghost-chasing doctor.

Shaking her head, Natsume stood up from the small bed. When she stepped on the ground again, her body was even shaky because she was not used to the feeling of standing up again.

"It's over. It's like a dream."

Reaching out and holding the railing beside her, Natsume Sonoko suddenly showed a relaxed smile on her face.

If she were to stay in such a small place all the time, even if she had no problem psychologically, she would not be able to handle it physically.

"Natsume-san."

The Ghost Chaser Doctor quietly waited for the girl in front of him to regain her sense of balance before speaking.

"Doctor, how did the examination go?"

Being called back to the real world by the doctor's words, a certain bun-haired guy asked with great concern, and his heart instantly became nervous.

"The inspection results were somewhat different from what I had imagined, and some of the plans I had prepared previously needed to have their parameters readjusted."

"It will probably take two or three days for the new treatment equipment to be ready."

Without directly answering the specific inspection data, the Underworld Soul Chaser responded after thinking for a while.

"Great."

"Thank you doctor."
