This is really...
"Hmm?" Chiyo frowned. She remembered that according to the original story, it should be time to eat crepes and get Gekota by now. Why hadn't she seen anyone handing out flyers yet?
and...
Chiyo's intuition, honed by countless battles in the Pokémon world, suggested that the situation might be a little delicate.
Although nothing seemed out of the ordinary on the street, more and more people were walking in the opposite direction. Some of the people walking past looked confused, while others looked nervous. Chiyo even noticed that some people seemed to have noticed the situation as well, showing curiosity but quickly choosing to follow the crowd.
"slow!"
Chiyo strode forward and stood at the front, blocking the main characters of Railgun who were having a lively conversation.
"that..."
Saten Ruiko, being the most sensitive to various events among the main characters, sensed an unexpected aura even though she didn't know the specifics.
Feeling that the person in front of her named Misaka Chiyo was difficult to communicate with, she still mustered up her courage and asked, "Is something wrong?"
"You felt it too?" Chiyo's expression was serious but also quite appreciative.
"Hehehe~" Ruiko scratched her head and chuckled foolishly. What did she sense? She couldn't really say, but her intuition and Chiyo's expression told her that something had happened.
"Kuroko is calling for backup." Chiyo didn't ask any more questions and instead ordered, "Hatsuharu, retrieve all the surveillance videos from the street 500 meters ahead of our current location."
The tone was unquestionable, completely commanding.
Surprisingly, neither Kuroko nor Hatsuharu objected, nor did they immediately comply.
After all, Chiyo is neither a disciplinary committee member nor their superior, so they cannot take action without clear circumstances.
Chiyo ignored it, realizing she was just being a bit of a professional.
"Owl, Swellow, Pidgeot!"
Chiyo randomly threw out her Pokémon and commanded, "Search in a fan shape in front of me at the 12 o'clock position, covering the 10 o'clock, 12 o'clock, and 3 o'clock positions. Report any unusual activity immediately and support each other in case of attack."
The three bird-like Pokémon took flight and disappeared from their sight at an incredible speed.
Chiyo then threw out two more Poké Balls.
Bang bang~ This time it's Butterfree and Rapidash that appear.
"Big Butterfly, move forward 300 meters in the direction of my 12 o'clock position and be ready to release hypnotic powder at any time. Pay attention to the messages at 12, 10, and 3 o'clock."
The next second, Butterfree flapped its wings and flew out. Although it wasn't fast, it disappeared into the sky in a very short time and became a tiny black dot that was almost invisible.
Chiyo mounted the horse and rode it, watching the cat.
Aren't you coming up?
Meow Meow was stunned for a moment. She had to admit that even though she knew that Chiyo was not on the same level as her two companions, her decisiveness and clear thinking in making decisions and arranging things in such a short time still surprised her.
"Here it comes, meow." Meow was very happy to be put to use, and it jumped onto the horse's back.
"drive!"
Chiyo has never been someone who only knows how to run away; since she always manages to get involved with the main characters.
Then let's move forward without fear!
Chapter Seventeen is more serious than the original work.
The fiery steed galloped across the road, disappearing from the protagonist group's sight in a very short time.
"This..." Ruiko stared in disbelief. "This, Misaka-senpai... um, has Misaka-sama always been like this?"
It was as if they were asking a question, but no one knew who they were asking, and no one answered.
Mikoto had seen Chiyo's quirky side, and Kuroko had seen Chiyo's vulnerable side, but they had never seen Chiyo's decisive side.
"That's really amazing." Haru's eyes sparkled as she looked at Chiyo's departing figure with admiration. "Is that Chiyo's older sister? She's so incredible!"
If I was just a little intimidated and disliked by Chiyo's coldness and oppressive aura, now I completely admire and respect her!
This is not simply the common people's yearning for wealthy young ladies; more importantly, Chiyo's portrayal also, to some extent, fulfills the descriptions of young ladies in the books about young ladies that Hatsuharu had read.
Those young ladies are not delicate vases!
Calm, sharp, decisive, and resolute, especially the encouraging look in her eyes when Chiyo mounted the horse and then extended an invitation to Nyanko.
Strong yet doesn't neglect friends, brave yet calm and wise.
The image of him galloping away on horseback was completely imprinted in her mind.
Not just her, but in the minds of everyone in the main characters.
"Could something really have happened?" Kuroko asked in astonishment.
There was still no answer, but suddenly there were urgent sirens, and then several police cars from the garrison sped away.
No one needs to answer this question anymore.
“Early spring!” Hei Zi exclaimed.
Without needing any further words, Haruhi, as a companion, had already begun calling for the nearest disciplinary committee member to inquire about the situation, while Kuroko had already put on her armband and was preparing to follow Chiyo to the scene of the incident.
"I want to go too!" Mikoto wanted to go right away.
“This is a matter for the Disciplinary Committee.” Kuroko refused without hesitation: “Protecting the safety of ordinary people is the duty of the Disciplinary Committee, so Kuroko will not allow Onee-sama to get involved in such an incident.”
"Can!!!"
Mikoto wanted to say something, but she found that Kuroko had already used her ability to quickly chase after the police car and Chiyo in the direction they had left.
“What do you mean, ‘ordinary people’!” Mikoto said angrily. “I’m not an ordinary person.”
As she spoke, she seemed to be sulking as she chased after Hei Zi.
Saten and Hatsuharu were left standing there dumbfounded.
"Ah... how should I put it?" Saten scratched her head and said, "This is the first time I've realized that the personality differences between twin sisters can be so great."
It must be said that with Chiyo's brilliant performance as a precedent, Mikoto's behavior only highlights her childishness.
While it's not fair to say she's terrible, compared to Chiyo's calm and clear instructions, Mikoto's behavior seems more like a childish tantrum and stubbornness.
"Why don't we follow them?" Saten suggested.
Even knowing the danger, Chiyo-senpai is a powerful esper, and Misaka-senpai is an even greater esper. With them around, any danger seems less dangerous.
More importantly, there are real Pokémon!
Can the danger compare to watching a real Pokémon battle?
The crowd began to thin out; some people's faces showed obvious tension, while others looked puzzled and angry.
The crowd has confirmed that an incident has occurred, and it is quite serious. Police officers have begun to disperse the crowd and block the roads.
"Cuckoo~"
Strange bird calls came from the sky. Chiyo noticed that the giant butterfly 300 meters in front of her began to change direction, from going forward to assist to pointing the way.
“Three vehicles,” Meow Meow said. “There are twelve masked men, three of whom are armed, and the rest are capable. The three vehicles are a sedan, a van, and a bus. According to Woody Owl’s close-up reconnaissance, the passengers on the bus are all children, and the only adults are a female tour guide and a male driver. Everyone is tied up; they are kidnapped hostages. Moreover, there is a bomb on the bus, and there is a masked man on it, who is probably the commander.”
"According to Da Wang Yan's investigation, there is a bank, a gold shop and a jewelry store nearby that are being robbed. The situation inside cannot be seen and it is uncertain whether anyone has been taken hostage."
"The latest news is that a child with superpowers tried to attack these people, was defeated, and was then taken hostage."
Meow Meow gradually reported the findings to Chiyo.
Chiyo remained expressionless, her heart a mixture of joy and gloom.
The good thing is that Meowth isn't entirely useless. As a mediator and bridge, it means I don't have to guess what Pokémon is trying to express anymore. However, as a transmigrator, my current situation isn't completely detached from the plot, but it has already gone astray.
In the original story, it was just a robbery that three petty thieves using the Imagine Breaker planned on the spot. But this time, it was a serious crime that was clearly organized, planned, and involved a large number of people.
More importantly, they have hostages.
Chiyo frowned, looking in the direction of Butterfly, seemingly looking at Butterfly but actually not focusing on her.
If she remembered correctly, many things in Academy City were not accidental events, but rather inevitable occurrences based on someone's guidance.
These inevitable events were part of his plan.
So, such a huge change from the original work is also part of someone's plan? Is his plan aimed at himself?
Chiyo carefully recalled everything that had happened since she transmigrated. When she first arrived, she was lying on a flat board, which, upon reflection, must have been a coffin and meant to be sent to the crematorium. The fact that she was able to change her route from the crematorium to the hospital was definitely not something that her insignificant system could have accomplished.
Moreover, the transfer school Tokiwa-dai-shi set in the middle is very difficult. Although she studied hard, the transfer process was too smooth.
If someone is pushing all of this from behind, then that person must be trying to push themselves to the forefront.
"Slow down." Chiyo consciously told Rethu to slow down.
"Not going?" Meow Meow asked, confused as to why Chiyo had suddenly slowed down. "Or should we wait for the other kids with superpowers to come?"
“There are hostages,” Chiyo explained. “Going there rashly will not do any good. Simply defeating these people is not a problem, but the problem is how to rescue the hostages. Judging from the current situation, these people are very well prepared, and rash action will inevitably harm the hostages.”
"Either do nothing, or if you do act, you must be absolutely certain."
This statement is flawless, but Chiyo has one more reason she didn't mention.
If I were to guess, this event was specifically prepared for me.
She won't show up, she won't solve the problem, and nobody else will show up either. They'll all be held back by various circumstances until the robbery is over.
'Is the robbery over? That's a perfect opportunity.'
Chapter Eighteen: Tactical Raid
"Quick! Hurry up and load all this money into the car!"
"What are you guys doing? Can't you pry open the ATM's safe? Just move it to the car!"
A masked, burly robber loudly gave orders.
"Big brother~" the robber holding a pistol beside him said casually, "Today's trip went really smoothly~ We can get a lot of stuff later."
The robber, though nervous, also spoke with a hint of smugness: "That's right, look who's in charge."
As he spoke, he glanced into the bus.
At this moment, the author was a man on the bus with a pompadour, wearing a black leather jacket, and nearly two meters tall. Although his face was covered, his fierce and menacing eyes sent chills down one's spine.
He was playing with a small ball of flame in his left hand and holding a pistol in his right.
Although he appeared relaxed and confident, the fact that his right hand was pale and the veins were bulging from the excessive force he was using betrayed his inner turmoil.
Nervous! Excited! Restless.
The man remained silent, his gaze fixed on the revelers outside the car window.
"Brother." A burly man got into the car, his tone relaxed and cheerful. "The Wild Wolves outside said they're going to move the ATM upstairs..."
Before he could finish speaking, the man suddenly stood up and roared, "Have those guys forgotten what we agreed on? What are you moving?! Pack up your things and get out of here!"
The fat man was stunned, completely unexpected that his older brother would be angry. He asked, somewhat puzzled, "But inside..."
"So what if you have money!" the man roared impatiently. "I think you've all gotten too cocky and become arrogant! We agreed from the beginning that we'd take it and leave in no more than five minutes, and look how much time has passed now!"
"Ten minutes have passed! Have you completely forgotten about practicing the coordination?!"
The men were extremely anxious; they had originally planned to pull off a big heist with their brothers.
They had their eyes on a savings bank and had been staking it out for several days.
The routes are all planned out; they quickly grab what they need and run away—speed is their main selling point.
But to his utter surprise, his two brothers, who were known to be gossipy, leaked the news, attracting two groups of people who wanted to get involved.
The man couldn't refuse and had no choice but to agree.
With more people, the target becomes larger, and although it's still in the same area, there's more to steal. The plan is to only loot the most valuable items, finishing within five minutes; if not, they must leave immediately. The kidnapped hostages also come in handy at this point; they threaten the driver with a remote-controlled bomb, forcing him to speed through the city at 120 km/h, thus attracting the attention of the police and disciplinary committee, buying them time to escape.
The two vehicles will then drive to the designated evacuation points and escape quickly.
Everything went smoothly at first, but it went too smoothly. The group got carried away and actually tried to move the safe!
The man was filled with rage. As the commander, he was acutely aware that every minute of delay meant ten times more danger. If they were surrounded by the disciplinary committee members and the security team, they would have no chance of escape.
After a slight hesitation, he looked out the window, but then immediately made up his mind and said, "Immediately..."
"Boss!" Suddenly, a gaunt man rushed into the car and shouted, "Look, there's a strange bird perched on the streetlight outside, and it's been there for quite a while..."
