I'm a Pokémon Master from School City (by mistake)

The light flashed briefly over a roadside drain.

'It's a machine!'

Chiyo suddenly thought of some settings in Academy City.

She remembered that there seemed to be someone in the Dark Side who could use small robots, and this person had once caused trouble for the students of Tokiwadai.

'Is it the Dark Division?'

Chiyo subtly held a Poké Ball in her hand.

Pretending not to have noticed anything, I walked for a while longer, looked up at the sun, determined its angle and position, and estimated the distance and angle at which the sunlight would be refracted if the robot were hidden in the drainage ditch.

Then continue walking, while observing the mirrors and glass on the roadside, anything that can reflect light so that Chiyo can see what's behind her.

This refraction isn't like the blindingly bright light seen in games or animations.

In reality, the light refracted by telescopes, sniper scopes, or camera lenses is very weak and requires a certain angle to observe.

If the other party has added camouflage, a reflective cover, or if the area itself doesn't easily let light in, it won't be visible.

It requires a great deal of luck.

Chiyo was lucky; having chosen the right angle beforehand and kept a close eye on it, she saw the drain cover reflect light once again.

"Pikachu! Electromagnetic wave!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Chiyo threw out Pikachu and gave the command.

"Pikachu!!!"

The invisible electromagnetic waves created an impact that caused the surrounding electronic instruments to temporarily malfunction.

Chiyo then turned around, strode forward, flipped open the drain cover, and grabbed the small, reflective object that was about to fall.

All of this happened incredibly quickly, giving the other party no chance to react at all.

"We've caught them, it's..."

"Ok?"

Chiyo thought it was some kind of mechanical insect from the Dark Organization, but after grabbing it, she realized that it didn't feel right and didn't seem like a mini robot.

This thing is more like a...

"Camera?"

Chiyo opened her hand and looked at the thing lying in her palm.

A camera, a camera with its own battery and transceiver?!

Chapter Eighty-Nine: Admonitions and Strategies

Camera.

It was a very basic kind.

A hollow plastic sphere contains a miniature camera, a button battery to power the device, and a signal transmitter.

They are all very common items; you can buy them anytime you have money.

None of these are very important.

The important thing is that this thing can't rely on its own strength to follow Chiyo forever.

That means there's something else carrying this thing around with you.

What is it?

Chiyo stroked the small plastic ball.

wet.

Um...

Chiyo searched her mind repeatedly for a while.

Suddenly a name came to mind.

Take heed!

This person is Chiyo's predecessor and Dolly's friend. After discovering Dolly's identity problem, he tried to rescue her and take her away from there.

Then...

Then there is no more.

He couldn't do anything by himself and was kicked out of the experiment.

How exactly she escaped being destroyed remains unknown to Chiyo, and the story doesn't reveal it either.

Anyway, this person survived, and she even became involved in the subsequent plot.

Can...

"Dolly's friend..."

Chiyo had a bit of a headache.

She was certain that her mere presence would attract the attention of anyone connected to Dolly.

Perhaps at this moment, some scientist in Academy City who can be described as insane to the point of being devoid of humanity... no, it would be more appropriate to call her an executioner.

Anyway, that person must have been following me too.

If things go according to the fan fiction, I'd most likely be drawn into his plan.

"what..."

Chiyo covered her forehead.

Headache...

If only she were from the ANBU, she could just start fighting right away.

But this is Dolly's friend.

Dolly's consciousness seemed to be within this body as well, so he couldn't ignore it, even though Dolly's consciousness could be ignored most of the time, and from the feeling on the other side...

Dolly didn't reject herself; in fact, you could say that the naive girl was genuinely grateful to herself.

I am grateful to myself for allowing her to reunite with Misaki Shokuhou, for letting her see a wider world, and for taking her to experience those magical things.

She was genuinely grateful to herself, without any evil thoughts or dissatisfaction, as if her transmigrating and taking over her body was the best thing for her.

Chiyo could even sense a trace of guilt from Dolly after she regained consciousness that day.

Chiyo's current situation is due to her physical deformities.

"Hey..."

Chiyo sighed.

"Pikachu!" Chiyo tossed what she was holding to Pikachu and asked, "Is this still usable? Can you test it out?"

Pikachu looked at it and shook its head.

It was a little puzzled; how could it not see something so obvious?

The electronic components inside were all burnt out.

Such a small thing simply cannot withstand its electromagnetic impact.

"never mind..."

Chiyo shook her head. Although she guessed who it was, she wouldn't go looking for this person since they weren't coming out. They had their own concerns.

However, if this person comes out, perhaps we can call her and Misaki Shokuhou together and rescue the other real Dory.

So now...

When I'm in a bad mood, I need to take the smiles off other people and put them on myself.

Although I don't laugh much anymore.

Go find some fun for yourself.

I wonder who will be unlucky today.

Chiyo wandered aimlessly through the streets, and soon spotted a familiar figure.

"Ok?"

"Tears?"

She has long, straight black hair and wears a different outfit every episode. If an anime lacks funding, it's all because of her; she's like the Heilan Home of A Certain Scientific Railgun.

Ruiko Saten, the queen of budget!

"what are you doing here?"

Chiyo walked up to Ruiko and sensed that Ruiko seemed a little off today.

Gone were her usual playful antics; she looked nervous and dejected, as if she were trying to muster the courage to do something.

and...

The girl was also holding an MP3 player.

Um...

How to put it? Saten was holding the thing nervously, but never before had she been so careful as she was today. You could even say that the MP3 in her hand was both a treasure and a hot potato. She wanted to throw it away but cherished it so much, and she was terrified of it.

Chiyo didn't wait for Ruiko's reply, but instead walked to the corner and looked at her from the side.

'Ah, we've reached that part of the plot.'

Chiyo was a little surprised; it was time for the storyline involving the polarizing ability user who had caused Kuroko a great deal of trouble.

If I remember correctly, this person's ability is similar to refraction, causing the light shining on me to deviate and form a projection.

The principle is roughly similar to looking at fish in the water from the shore, where the position of the fish in your eyes differs from its actual position.

As for combat strength.

'I have absolutely no interest in it.'

Chiyo completely disregarded the minor villain in this storyline.

The difference in combat power within Academy City is simply too obvious.

Chiyo didn't even want to look at these low-level thugs.

"wait for me."

Chiyo walked out of the corner with her arms crossed, clapping her hands as she went, saying, "Alright, alright, we have the witnesses and evidence. Now, are you going to put on the handcuffs yourselves or should I do it for you?"

"what?"

The delinquent with the missing tooth, whose name Chiyo didn't even want to remember, looked at Chiyo with a "you're joking" expression.

"A disciplinary committee member? Really..."

"puff..."

Before he could finish speaking, Chiyo suddenly lunged forward and delivered a powerful kick to his chest, sending him flying.

"Cough cough cough~"

The delinquent fell heavily to the ground, staring at Chiyo with disbelief. "You... how could this be..."

“My hearing is perfectly fine now.” Chiyo pointed to her ears and said, “Sound and image are not in the same place. Your little trick is too obvious.”

Let's just put it that way.

Chiyo actually thinks that Kuroko, who has a lot of combat experience, is actually quite stupid when facing this delinquent.

Humans possess stereoscopic hearing.

While humans may not be as adept at locating sounds as some animals, who can pinpoint the exact location of a sound, they can certainly get a general idea.

For example, FPS players would be a good fit.

While StarCraft players are practically blind, for FPS players, listening to footsteps and gunshots is a fundamental skill.

This isn't simply about needing a good pair of headphones; it's about recognizing that humans inherently possess this ability.
