Even if I transform, I will never be captured.

Although Satella gasped in surprise at the unexpected collision, she did not fall.

After all, the years of training she underwent with Jingwei were not for nothing. Now her lower body is very stable, and it won't be easy to push her down!

However, the other party was not so lucky. Caught off guard by Satella's sudden collision, they landed on their bottom with a "piaji".

"I'm sorry, are you alright?"

Knowing she was in the wrong, Satella quickly reached out to take her hand, but she was taken aback when she saw the other person's face.

For a fleeting moment, she almost mistook the other person for Shirai Kuroko.

—The same twin ponytails, the same small breasts and petite figure, the same palm-sized face, even their appearances are somewhat similar.

However, Satella quickly shook her head, distinguishing between the two.

First of all, the other person was dressed in a black nurse-style outfit and short skirt, with slender legs encased in black stockings that were inappropriate for her age, and even a skull pendant around her neck.

In short, it's a typical delinquent girl outfit, and Shirai Kuroko, who upholds justice, would never wear this.

However, compared to her outfit, what was even more striking were her eyes.

— It was black as coal, constantly spewing out hateful smoke, just like a blazing piece of charcoal.

She was no ordinary passerby, but even after racking her brains, Satella couldn't recall in which part of the original story this girl had appeared.

Just as she was frowning and recalling, the girl had already pulled her hand and stood up.

"It's okay. To be precise, it's also my fault for being distracted at a time like this."

Despite being dressed like a rebellious teenager, the girl's words were surprisingly polite, and she wore a perfectly timed, well-behaved smile.

"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."

"Okay, sure."

Satella nodded, then gently shook her head as she watched the girl's retreating figure.

Well, it seems I was overthinking it.

Academy City is so vast, and there are so many filthy secrets hidden within. How could a single book like "A Certain Magical Index" possibly depict everything that happens in this world?

However, since this girl did not appear in the original work, it means that she has no significant connection with him, so he doesn't need to care about her.

Thinking this, Satella looked away. In the process, she suddenly realized that from this spot, she could see the coffee shop where she had been before...

"Well, why think so much? Anyway, we won't have any interaction with her in the future."

Satella rubbed her face to cheer herself up.

"The most urgent thing right now is to go back to the workshop and discuss with Misaki Shokuhou how to become the villainous boss!"

……

……

Satella was efficient enough, but by the time she arrived at the factory gate in a taxi, it was already 11 o'clock.

"I wonder if Misaki-chan is asleep... No, it would be even better if she were asleep, then I could do whatever I wanted?"

Because she was about to see the person she had been longing for, Satella's mood became very high, so much so that she rushed from the taxi to the door of the factory as fast as a gust of wind.

The taxi driver, still counting his money, thought he was seeing things. The beautiful young woman had just been beside him, how could she have disappeared in the blink of an eye? Could he have encountered a female ghost?

Naturally, Satella still had the highest access to the talent room, and she quickly arrived at the familiar room by scanning her face.

—The layout is still the same as before, whether it's the two pillows placed together on the bed, the game helmet on the table, or the two mouthwash cups in the bathroom, they are all in the same positions as when Satella left.

But the familiar person wasn't in the room.

"Well……"

Satella pouted, looking somewhat unhappy.

Although she had already guessed that this was possible, after all, Tokiwadai Middle School is a very strict school with a rule that everyone must go to the dormitory on time every day. Even a Level 5 like Misaka Mikoto has to obey the rule. Although Misaki Shokuhou's ability is more convenient in this regard, she would not violate the school rules unless necessary.

But when Satella found the room completely empty, she still felt a little empty inside.

—She was also planning a surprise attack on Misaki Shokuhou!

"There's nothing I can do, I'll be sleeping alone tonight..."

Satella had considered calling Misaki Shokuhou, but it was already past eleven o'clock, and Misaki Shokuhou was definitely asleep, and she always turned off her phone when she went to sleep.

Satella felt incredibly unlucky to have traveled to this world!

First, the timeline was wrong; then, he had just resolved to become a big boss when a kid on the street mocked him for being delusional; now he can't even see Misaki Shokuhou. In short, everything is going wrong...

However, Satella will not be easily discouraged!

After taking a warm bath in the bathroom to clear her mind, Satella climbed into bed in her pajamas. Instead of sleeping, she casually leaned against the headboard.

Her long, silver hair cascaded lazily over her shoulders, its slight curls adding an elegant touch. Her eyes, hidden beneath long eyelashes, shimmered with a lake-like purplish-red light. Her straight nose and glossy lips radiated a fresh beauty under the glow.

Looking at Satella like this, most people would probably think she's thinking about something wonderful.

However, Satella is now only interested in causing trouble!

But what should we do?

Satella couldn't help but frown. She wasn't pretty at all. Her rosy lips parted slightly, and she bit her thumb with her pearly teeth.

Satella has always been undoubtedly on the side of justice, but now that she has suddenly decided to become the villain, it feels like we don't know where to start.

Shouldn't we stick to kidnapping after all?

Although it's old-fashioned, it's the most direct and effective method.

—The plan is to lure Accelerator away, have a reliable person kidnap Last Order, and then, when Accelerator is in a panic, step forward and use your 'excellent investigative skills' to successfully find the 'culprit.' Together with Accelerator, you'll beat him up and successfully rescue Last Order!

Although it looks simple, its simplicity actually makes it less prone to errors.

This is a plan that is flawless!

But who should we choose as the reliable person?

Honeybee won't do. Last time, she turned evil after being thrown over the shoulder twice. If I beat her up again this time, I'm afraid I'll need a machete.

Kamijou Touma, Misaka Mikoto, Index, Tsuchimikado Motoharu...

After going through all the people she knew in her mind, Satella finally chose Tsuchimikado Motoharu.

Firstly, Tsuchimikado Motoharu is indeed very reliable; secondly, he also intends to get close to and investigate me, so he probably won't refuse such a request; thirdly, his superpower of [physical regeneration] makes him a perfect punching bag!

With the cast finalized, the next step is to refine the details.

Although it was already midnight, Satella was wide awake. One wicked scheme after another kept popping into her mind, and her pair of beautiful, jewel-like red eyes shone with a deep light of pleasure!

Finally, when Satella finally succumbed to sleepiness and fell asleep, it was already past 2 a.m.

……

……

It's probably because she had been thinking about it all day that she dreamed about it all night; Satella dreamed about those plans all night long.

She dreamt that her plan was executed perfectly, and that she and Accelerator successfully rescued Last Order after giving Tsuchimikado Motoharu a sound beating.

In this way, Accelerator's wish was fulfilled, and everything should have ended perfectly. However, because he performed too perfectly in this operation, Accelerator actually fell deeply in love with him.

Just then, Misaki Shokuhou somehow learned of her plan and suddenly appeared in front of her with a dark face: "I've been waiting for you for twenty whole days, but when you come back, you're entangled with two men!"

Then, he raised his machete and chopped down!

"what!"

Satella was startled awake and sat up in bed, but after taking a few deep breaths and realizing it was just a nightmare, she felt a little dizzy.

She checked the time and realized it was only nine in the morning, meaning she had only slept for seven hours.

—She needs to sleep for ten hours every night!

However, she probably couldn't fall asleep now, and the scene in her dream made Satella very scared, so after a quick wash, she quickly picked up her phone and called Misaki Shokuhou.

The call went through, but no one answered.

Oh my god! What on earth is Honeybee doing?

Although missing a phone call is a normal thing, Satella still felt a little dissatisfied because in Satella's mind, Misaki Shokuhou should be the kind of summon that would appear instantly by her side just by calling her name.

But just as she was grumbling in dissatisfaction—

"Hello everyone, I am Misaki Shokuhou, the student representative for this Daihasei Festival..."

As one of the few days that Academy City was open to the public, the Daihasei Festival saw at least hundreds of thousands of people flocking in from outside.

Perhaps to accommodate the lack of venues, the Daihasei Festival organizing committee specially set up large screens in some public places for live broadcasting of the matches.

At that moment, Satella heard a familiar, sweet voice on the large screen outside the window.

"On behalf of all students, I solemnly pledge in this sports meet: to obey commands and referees, to be tenacious and hardworking in the competition, to demonstrate sportsmanship, skill, and achievement..."

Satella didn't listen to what was said next because she ran to the toilet to vomit.

She thought she was thick-skinned enough, but she never expected that Misaki Shokuhou was the most shameless one!

As someone who has never attended a physical education class and is completely clueless about sports, where did she get the courage to say such a thing?

However, at least through this incident, Satella learned why Misaki Shokuhou hadn't answered the phone.

Misaki Shokuhou always keeps her phone in her bag, and obviously she can't carry her bag when she's giving a speech on stage.

(Once Shihou-chan gets her bag back and sees my missed call on her phone, she'll probably call back soon!)

(Once everything is explained clearly, I no longer need to worry about the dream repeating itself.)

(That's right, things in dreams are always the opposite of reality, so a machete or something like that is simply impossible!)

(As the saying goes, after the worst comes the best. I was so unlucky yesterday, so I should be lucky today!)

With that thought in mind, Satella felt at ease and went to eat breakfast.
