Temperature Control in Academy City

It is quite common for students to rent a house in Academy City. Natsume Sonoko even got some discounts by showing her student ID. The student ID of Tokiwadai Junior High School is indeed quite useful.

The issue of the rental contract has not been settled yet. Although Natsume Sonoko lacks social experience, she still has the basic common sense to visit the house in person before signing the contract.

So after getting the key, Natsume Sonoko brought a large group of Misaka sisters to the location of the apartment, just as if they were looking at the house in advance. If they were satisfied, they would move in directly.

This small apartment was built quite a while ago, and the tiles on the exterior have turned a little yellow, but it still looks quite sturdy.

The apartment is divided into two floors, with a total of six small rooms. It has water, electricity, air conditioning, and a bathroom. In addition, there is the necessary housing insurance, fire insurance, and a bunch of miscellaneous things in the Academy City. On average, each room costs about 20,000 yen.

20,000 yen is actually quite a lot. At least that's the amount Natsume Sonoko spends every time she goes to the supermarket to replenish her supplies.

However, this price is relatively reasonable in Academy City, at least that's what Natsume Sonoko thinks. She had a hard time identifying the best place among a bunch of places with monthly rents of 20,000, 50,000 or 30,000, and finally chose this one.

I heard from the agent that one of the rooms is about 60 square meters, and the stairs and corridors are not counted as common areas, so it is no problem for four Misaka sisters to live there.

Arriving in front of the apartment, Natsume Sonoko looked around. She had the impression that there were three surveillance cameras nearby, so there was some safety factor.

"Misaka 9982 is seriously proposing that whoever arrives in the room first will have ownership of the room."

Misaka No. 9982 was holding a bunch of messy things in his hands, and the violin case behind him blocked the stairs leading to the second floor.

"Misaka 10000 agrees to this proposal. With four people in each room, only twelve people can live on the second floor." Misaka 10000, who is good at math, nodded and quietly approached the stairs to the second floor.

"But you haven't got the key yet."

Looking at the Misaka sisters rushing to the second floor, Natsume Sonoko said a little dumbfounded. To be honest, she couldn't understand what the Misaka sisters were thinking.

What's so good about the second floor? You have to climb stairs. The first floor is best. If possible, it would be better to change your dormitory to No. 110.

Surrounded by the Misaka sisters, Natsume Sonoko had to follow the crowd to the second floor.

The staircase was external, and the original steel railings were rusty. When a group of people stepped on it, it made a creaking sound, making people wonder if it was about to be retired gloriously.

Going up the stairs to the second floor, a dozen Misaka sisters were already standing at the door of the rooms in a menacing manner. I counted them and found that there were exactly four in front of each room.

"Misaka 9988 proposes to decide the room number by rock-paper-scissors."

"Misaka 9999 agrees with 9988's proposal."

"Misaka 9998 refused and showed a smug expression."

The Misaka sisters who failed to get rooms on the second floor finally had to accept rooms on the first floor. However, after the rooms were allocated, there seemed to be some problems.

"Natsume-san, Misaka 9982 has taken ownership of the room. Please let me keep the key."

"Misaka 9979 is the most suitable person to keep the key."

"But there is only one key for each room, and it can't be shared among four people." Natsume Sonoko said hesitantly.

"Misaka 9988 proposes again that we use rock-paper-scissors to decide the ownership of the key."

Natsume Sonoko silently inserted the six keys into the door and picked up the bag she brought with her.

Looking behind them, the Misaka sisters were now divided into six groups, and were using the rock-paper-scissors game to determine ownership of the keys.

Someone originally thought that the winner would be decided in an instant, but the final result was so shocking that men were speechless and women cried.

Natsume Sonoko waited idly at the stairs for an hour. It was enough for her to play rock-paper-scissors for an hour in a row, and she also maintained an extremely high number of two moves within one second. The number of games she played had exceeded 7,000.

Chapter 135 Natsume Dormitory Supervisor

If we consider a certain mysterious network in Misaka sisters' brain, Natsume Sonoko can probably guess the specific situation.

Speaking of online rock-paper-scissors, is it a game of Internet speed? Then the loser should be the one with the slowest Internet speed.

Perhaps soon or someday, we will know who has the fastest internet speed among the Misaka sisters.

Standing at the door of the apartment, Natsume Sonoko naturally would not live here. Tokiwadai Junior High School does not allow students to live anywhere other than the student dormitory.

Not only that, even things like hair and nails are collected and organized by special people. Losing weight is also a prohibited item, but few people will listen.

I almost forgot that the apartment here has not been tidied yet. There is not even any quilt or daily necessities. It is just a bare apartment.

It seems that I can't leave yet. I have to finish these things. It's so troublesome. Anyway, I can solve these troubles at once.

Just when Natsume Sonoko was hesitating, the first winner of the rock-paper-scissors game finally appeared.

The winner of the rock-paper-scissors competition was Misaka No. 10000, who was good at math. It was an easy-to-remember number and he always had a faint smile on his face.

Like other Misaka sisters, but a little different.

They are happy when they win a game and unhappy when they lose a game. They are no different from humans.

Even clones will develop their own emotions over time. It is too much to just treat them as experimental equipment.

Looking at this face that is similar to Misaka-senpai, Natsume Sonoko had another thought for the first time.

The reason why Natsume Sonoko spent so much time and effort on this was not only because of the vague influence of her memories of her previous life, but also because of her friendship with Misaka-senpai. If someone could help, Misaka-senpai might not have to suffer so much.

Some people even wanted to hide it from Misaka-senpai and try to solve the problem on their own. Although this idea is a bit unrealistic, since others at level 5 can't do anything about it, what can you, a level 4, do? This is just wishful thinking.

As for the clones themselves, Natsume Sonoko sees them more as shadows of Misaka-senpai and ignores their own spirituality.

Only now did Natsume Sonoko suddenly realize that they were actually no different from other people she knew, except that there were still some problems in their relationships.

"Congratulations, Misaka-san."

Natsume Sonoko put her bag aside, stopped and looked at Misaka Ichiman not far away.

"Hehe, Misaka No. 10000 is happy to accept this classmate's blessing." Misaka No. walked over, and the expression on her face changed slightly.

The Misaka sisters always call themselves Misaka, and once there are other Misaka sisters nearby, they will include their own specimen numbers when speaking, which also makes it easier for others to identify the identities of the Misaka sisters.

"Then, as the head of the dormitory, the key to the third room on the second floor will be given to you." Natsume Sonoko said, pointing to the key already inserted in the door.

"Dormitory head? Misaka Ichiman likes this title very much." A strange smile appeared on Misaka Ichiman's face again, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his eyes glanced to the side unconsciously.

It turns out that this expression means pride. Seeing this expression again, Natsume Sonoko thought with some sudden enlightenment.

"Well, Misaka Dormitory Head No. 10, your dormitory will complete the election for dormitory head first, so you will be responsible for purchasing the daily supplies everyone needs." Natsume Sonoko thought of something at this time, and her face was full of majesty.

"Misaka is happy to purchase daily supplies but must follow her body clock to prepare for rest."

Misaka Ichiman said very seriously, taking a step back and wanting to return to the room he had just won.

"No, Misaka 10,000 Dormitory Head. As the head of the Misaka Apartment, I have the authority to ask you to purchase supplies. Otherwise, I will take back your position as dormitory head."

Natsume Sonoko imitated the warden of her own dormitory and appointed herself as the new warden of Misaka Apartment. As the largest and only investor of the apartment, it should not be too much to volunteer to be the warden.

Although someone still holds the title of temporary discipline committee member, he is actually unemployed and found another job for himself all of a sudden. In this way, Natsume Sonoko is actually very hardworking and diligent.

The small apartment in front of us was also named Misaka Apartment by Natsume Sonoko. If the apartment where Misaka sisters live is not called Misaka Apartment, should it be called Sister Apartment?

"Natsume-san is the dorm supervisor? Misaka Ichiman is shocked."

Misaka Ichiman stepped back again, her eyes widening. This was the first time she showed a completely shocked expression.

Among the various knowledge input into the heads of the Misaka sisters, the dormitory supervisors are all 25-year-old women. Misaka Ichiman, who is still very simple-minded, has great doubts about the actual age of Natsume Sonoko for a while, and has a strange feeling of world view collapse, even though the Misaka sisters have not formed any world view yet.

And at the moment when doubt arose, all the Misaka sisters who were playing rock-paper-scissors were instantly stuck, and their arms were suspended in the air, as if one of the Misaka sisters shared the shock with everyone, and soon a bunch of Misaka sisters expressed their opinions on this.

If a girl were to apply for a job at UC News, she might be able to type out a 100,000-word news article in three minutes.

Of course, Natsume Sonoko had no idea of ​​the wild thoughts in Misaka's head. Instead, she felt that her authority was working. She couldn't help but reveal a smug expression on her face, and even her dazed expression could not be held back.

I'm happy. So this is what being a dorm supervisor feels like. Maybe if I can't find a job in the future, I can apply for the position of dorm supervisor.

By that time, my fierce dorm supervisor should be retiring. It would be a good idea to be a dorm supervisor in Tokiwadai. Food and accommodation are provided, and I can occasionally bully Shirai and Misaka.

Of course, it is impossible not to find a job. Natsume Sonoko said that she is very capable.

"I understand. Misaka Ichiman has no complaints about the task of purchasing supplies and firmly supports the decision of Dormitory Supervisor Natsume."

Misaka Ichiman has recovered from his state of shock and his face has become serious.

"Well, in that case, Misaka Ichiman-san can call the Misaka sisters in his dormitory, and we will finish this quickly and come back quickly. As for the other Misaka sisters, they will be responsible for preparing the rooms after the rock-paper-scissors game is over."

Natsume Sonoko nodded and patted the shoulder of her little comrade Misaka Ichimango. Although Ichimango was much taller than her, it did not affect the majesty of the dormitory supervisor.

Chapter 136: Misakas Performing Photosynthesis

Walking aggressively on the street, the four identical Misaka sisters attracted the attention of passers-by, while the leader Natsume was rather unpopular.

In Japan, where the birthrate is declining day by day, quadruplets like the Misaka sisters are extremely rare. In addition, they were all wearing the same Tokiwadai Junior High School uniforms, which attracted many people to stop and look.

"Toothbrush, toothpaste, shower gel, towel and teacup." Natsume Sonoko counted on her fingers and thought about something.

The Misaka sisters were carrying a lot of daily necessities in their hands. As the dormitory head, Misaka Ichiman even had a large plastic bag full of daily necessities hanging around his neck.

As a wealthy person among the Misaka sisters, the girl with the bun had no choice but to bear these expenses.

The price of daily necessities for 24 people is not high, only about 20,000 yen in total, and with some discounts, it can all be bought for about 17,000 yen.

"Dorm Master, Misaka Ichiman thinks we need to purchase some blankets and pillows."

Both of her hands were heavy, and with a plastic bag hanging around her neck, her body became a little hunched. The girl named Misaka Ichiman stopped and spoke, with a hint of inexplicable anticipation on her face.

"Blankets? But those things are expensive."

Like the Misaka sisters, Natsume Sonoko, whose hands were full of bags, began to hesitate.

She still remembered that she had seen discounted blankets in a supermarket before, and any one of them cost 3,000 yen, while the normal price was around 5,000 yen each.

Just when Natsume Sonoko was feeling a little confused, she suddenly discovered that Misaka Ichiman and several other Misaka sisters were looking in a certain direction.

[Qingqing Prairie brand wool blanket, buy it now for % off and get free door-to-door delivery on the same day]

After seeing an advertisement for a blanket, Natsume Sonoko suddenly realized that it was the Misaka sisters who saw the advertisement.

The blanket in this advertisement looks much larger than the average blanket, and can be used as a carpet.

Sitting in the delivery truck on the way to Misaka Apartment, Natsume Sonoko rubbed the newly bought plush blankets out of some curiosity. They were heavy and large in size, and felt great to rub.

"Misaka Ichiman is very confident in his selection of blankets."

Squinting his eyes, Misaka Ichiman hugged one of the blankets contentedly, and the other Misakas also showed happy expressions.

Through a certain Misaka network, it was discovered that all six Misaka dormitories in the apartment actually participated in the selection of blankets.

There are a total of six blankets on the bus, belonging to six dormitories. Each blanket is large enough for seven or eight people to use together. The store also provides one year's blanket repair and cleaning service.

Each blanket cost about 15,000 yen, which means another 90,000 yen in expenses. Add to that the rent of more than 200,000 yen that needs to be paid after signing the contract, and your savings will immediately shrink to five figures.

"By the way, is it okay to just buy a blanket?" Natsume Sonoko said, tilting her head.

To be honest, spending money is a small matter. She had used all her savings to buy gifts for others. But suddenly she felt uneasy. Would she have to live a life of free food in the Tokiwadai dormitory for the next month?

"Misaka No. 9985 is very satisfied." One of the Misaka nodded.

"is that so."

Putting aside unnecessary thoughts, Natsume Sonoko nodded slightly. As someone who had not covered herself with a blanket and had not slept well for years, she didn't think it was a big problem.

The delivery truck soon arrived at the foot of the apartment building, and a few guys who had shamelessly come back in the truck finally jumped off the car.

All the large and small bags on his body were intact, and there were several heavy cylindrical objects at hand, and six blankets were rolled into cylindrical shapes.

At this time, the Misaka sisters had already been determined. Classmate No. 9982, who Natsume Sonoko met at the beginning, lived up to everyone's expectations and lost to No. 9977, who was now squatting in the corner, poking the wall with lifeless eyes.

"Everyone come and help move the things in."

Putting down their belongings, Natsume-san, an amateur dormitory supervisor, directed the Misaka sisters to carry the spoils.

The Misaka sisters are actually quite strong. Two of them can carry a blanket together. It seems that they have inherited Misaka senior's physical talent.

The apartment was cleaned vigorously for half an hour, and at the end Natsume Sonoko used her ability to disinfect the house with high temperature.

The blanket was pushed and rolled slowly. Before long, it covered the entire bedroom, making it look warm all of a sudden.

“I didn’t expect it to be just right.”

Natsume Sonoko was somewhat satisfied. The area of ​​the blanket was very suitable for the size of the bedroom in the room. The bedroom of about 20 square meters was full.

In addition to the bedroom, there is a kitchen and a bathroom. Opposite the entrance there is a large living room, and in the corner there is a storage room the size of half a bedroom.

Although it is only 60 square meters, it feels very complete. She seems to be very satisfied with this apartment and decides to sign the contract tomorrow.

After working for a long time, the sky had already turned dark.

A certain bun-head who just appointed himself as a dormitory supervisor will naturally not forget his super powerful dormitory supervisor, so it is very necessary to go back on time. Otherwise, he may have to go to the office for a day trip tomorrow.

"I'm leaving first. As for everyone's meal problem tomorrow, I've already figured out a solution."
