Contrary to what was originally envisioned, our actions seemed momentarily bogged down.
The members of the Roman Orthodox Church who robbed the angel disappeared as if they had disappeared out of thin air. Not only Kanzaki Kaori, but even the Xiling agents we sent couldn't find the trace of the other party. Pandora has already invaded the entire Academy City. All monitoring systems, except for the "Staying Loop" which cannot be easily controlled due to its special attributes, it can be said that the entire Academy City has become more clear to us than the restaurant that was swept away by Sandora , but even so, those Roman Catholics have not shown their traces, and there is nothing left in the historical records of some monitoring equipment. It is obvious that even members of the magical side who are generally mechanical idiots will be aware of the high-tech before taking action. The monitoring technology is laid out to a certain extent.
It's incredible.
And another thing that is basically certain is that the missing angel is undoubtedly the slow Sylvia.
Although we have only met twice, due to the girl's friendly personality, she has become my friend with Lin Xue, so when we saw Xiaoxi's jewelry store that had been empty, we were all quite upset.
Angel!
nonsense!
How could that idiot be an angel
Alaya floated innocently past me...
Cough cough, I mean, such an ordinary guy, even just an orphan adopted by Academy City, how could she suddenly become an angel
However, these are all issues to be considered later. The most urgent task now is to find Sylvia's whereabouts.
Although the ability to do business is not very good, but because of her natural friendly personality, Sylvia's popularity in this shopping street is quite good. After pretending to be an investigator, we quickly found her under the guidance of a few enthusiastic people. The small apartment where Sylvia lived.
"This is where the child lives," the owner of a store who brought us warmly pointed out. "At the beginning, she couldn't remember her house number and asked us for directions all day long. As a result, everyone here is older than her." I also know her address..."
us:"… "
"Please be sure to bring that child back safely!" Just as we were feeling emotional, the store owner A with a public face suddenly said loudly, and then bowed deeply, "Although Sylvia is always very clumsy, she is really A very kind and warm-hearted girl, although she has only been here for a few months, she has made all of us here feel the warmth of that child, so please!"
"Of course, that's our job."
With a reassuring smile, Lin Xue sent the store manager away, and then locked the door behind her.
"Looking for the whereabouts of the angels from the Roman Orthodox Church," I sighed, and then dragged Lin Xue to the back room. "Girl, you can smell it carefully and see if you can find the whereabouts of Sylvia... Oh shit!"
Accompanied by a loud noise, there was also the roar of a crazy prophet: "What kind of description do you bastard use!!"
Sylvia's room looked quite tidy and extremely simple, except for a white single bed, a writing desk, a bedside table and two chairs, nothing else, even in this Academy City There is absolutely no lack of human necessities: no computer, which makes me wonder whether the other party is due to his natural personality or because of his miserable business ability to make him poor to such a degree, but the possibility of the latter is also possible Not high, being able to open a store in the core area of Academy City, it is already obvious that Academy City has taken care of her. To this extent, she may be able to live a good life even relying on relief funds, right
A natural purger
This is really in line with her "angel" status.
Although I don't know why Sylvia, who has the identity of an adopted orphan, suddenly became an "angel", but now she suddenly and inexplicably agrees with her new identity.
"There is no trace of struggle, and there is no remnant of special energy fluctuations," Lin Xue turned around in the small single bedroom, "It smells like a stranger, but she took the initiative to follow him out, combined with Sylvia's Brain power, it seems that this is an abduction incident with a difficulty factor of 0.00."
I immediately summoned Alaya, and said seriously to the silly angel with a ignorant expression: "Hey, you must remember one thing, don't talk to strangers..."
Then Qianqian, who was analyzing the timeline, came up and gave me a shudder: "Don't treat our angel as a fool!!"
Alaya continued to be confused.
Qianqian found nothing by going back to the time of this place. Sylvia has obviously been taken away for a long time, and the manipulation of time has the characteristic that the greater the span, the difficulty of control will increase sharply at the cubic level, let alone with At present, Qianqian's ability is still unable to distort the history that has happened, so in the end, we can only place our hope on Kanzaki.
But obviously, if even we can't find it, the chance of Kanzaki being able to find it is even smaller.
Accompanied by the slight sound of breaking through the air, the "sage" with the figure of Yujie and the age of a girl appeared outside the window, and then jumped into the room through the open window.
"Do you usually go in and out of other people's houses through windows?"
Lin Xue asked with a serious expression.
"Well… "
Even if he is as calm as a god, he still has no way to parry Lin Xue's talk.
"Didn't find it?"
I hadn't received the signal from the other party before, and now seeing the depressed expression on her face, I already guessed the result.
Kanzaki nodded silently, and said in a low voice: "They may have already mastered a certain way, not only successfully infiltrated Academy City, but also left here easily, or it may be some kind of way that can ignore obstacles and move instantly. I have informed other colleagues that they will use various channels to find clues about each other, and the Supreme Bishop should also contact the Roman Orthodox Church through upper-level channels, but this is of little significance. The Roman Orthodox Church will never compromise until its own goals are achieved, and those lunatics who claim to be orthodox have never had the habit of compromising.”
Leaving Academy City...
That would be a little troublesome. With the help of Pandora's system invasion and the activities of Xiling agents, I will undoubtedly occupy the home court in Academy City, but now the opponent is outside this city, and may even have already Under the aegis of the Roman Orthodox Church, it was somewhat impossible to settle the matter quietly.
"I got a real angel," Qianqian thought a little differently from me, "The Roman Orthodox Church thought they had a huge advantage, but they could think that there were a lot of angels backing the Puritan Church in England." ?"
"what do you mean?"
Hearing Qianqian's words, Kanzaki immediately showed an overjoyed expression, and Qianqian turned her gaze to me: "Ah Jun, I don't like the Roman Orthodox Church."
"I'm not too happy," I shrugged, slightly mourning the leisurely holiday I had just been shot, "Then let's get ready to beat up those hot-blooded monkeys."
"Heh... heh... hehe..." Kanzaki smiled dryly with a stiff expression, expressing that he didn't hear anything to the way the "Master Angel" spoke in front of him.
"Then I will inform the great bishop of this good news as soon as possible," the girl saint bowed to us and said, "We will find the whereabouts of the lost angel in the shortest possible time. They will make a big move, and before that, the lost angel should not suffer any harm."
"... I hope." I said uncertainly, with a hint of worry hidden in my heart. Sylvia, although she was suddenly named an angel, she was really a "human being" with no power and a natural dullness. "Girl, although those lunatics in the Roman Orthodox Church who are willing to do anything to promote "the glory of the Lord" may not hurt Sylvia, they are like fragile works of art that can be broken even in the hands of collectors. Is it really possible for the Roman Catholics not to hurt Silvia in order to realize their "righteousness"
On the way back to the institute, I kept thinking about a question.
Aleister, what are you thinking
Although guessing the old fox's thoughts is quite difficult for a person like me who is not good at conspiracy, at least one thing is certain, just like a certain fox girl, the hanging man in the tube is definitely a A man who uses the means for his own ends, that is to say, he will never allow anything to happen that would interfere with his goals, and it should be absolutely forbidden by all means to give the Roman Orthodox Church an angel that would potentially greatly increase its power matter.
Wait... Angel... Sylvia...
Behind this whole thing, what kind of role does a certain "all-knowing and omnipotent" Guan Ziman play
Is it just condoning all of this, or is this something within his plan at all? If he acquiesced in the series of events that happened on the site of the guy who is used to taking everything in his own hands, it would mean that it was all planned by Aleister.
The girl who was half a beat said that she herself was an orphan adopted by Academy City, that is to say, her existence was actually some kind of plan by Aleister from the beginning
No, this is a bit too miraculous. Aleister is an old fox, but he probably hasn't had the foresight to adopt a girl for an opportunity that may not appear until more than ten years later, just to let her live in the future. One day growing up pretending to be an angel, and then being taken away by the Roman Orthodox people, no matter how you think about it, being able to pretend to be an "angel" and play a vital role in a conspiracy is not a role randomly picked from extras It can be used just by grabbing one. This design has been started more than ten years ago. It would be more reliable if Lin Xue was to carry it out.
Or, in fact, what Aleister originally planned to carry out was actually the Guangyuan's cultivation plan? !
Oops, thoughts are out of control again.
"Wu Mu, what on earth are you thinking about with your erratic expression on your face and erratic eyes?"
Lin Xue noticed my abnormality, stopped curiously, and said so in a very serious tone.
You just added so many subtle things, bastard!
"Nothing," I shook my head, suppressing the urge to go to Aleister, that was too passive, "Qianqian, call a group of professional agents from Shadow City, within the sphere of influence of the Roman Orthodox Church A comprehensive search for Sylvia's whereabouts, I will send Alaya to find that fox girl, we are not familiar with this place, no matter how powerful Agent Xiling is, it is definitely not as good as the natives of this world, Lin Xue, this I'll trouble you for a few days, I know you can't see anything related to Sylvia, so... "
"I can only fully scan the entire Roman Orthodox Church to understand the situation from the side. I know I know, so you just need to be grateful." Lin Xue habitually stumbled with me, and then suddenly her tone became slightly serious, "Say , I never thought you would be serious."
"Being used as a gun, of course I feel a little uncomfortable."
I shrugged and turned my gaze to a tall black building in the distance.
"Although I don't know what the purpose is, but one thing is certain, a certain pipe man is planning to make us stand out."
Helping Academy City solve its troubles, I have no problem with it, and I am even happy to do it, but if this trouble is set up by a pipe man, and he intends to count us all into it, then I will not be happy up.
Lin Xue nodded, then suddenly remembered something, and said with a smile: "If you need an agent, I can give you a suggestion—a genius who is very suitable to penetrate into every corner of the Roman Orthodox Church under such circumstances."
I immediately expressed horror: "We still have such people under our command?"
Miss Lin smiled slightly: "Sicaro—that guy can promote his pirated version to the Pope's Palace in the Vatican!"
Me & Qianqian: "...a good idea."
So, in the evening of that day, under the leadership of a certain urban management killer, a specially trained Xiling agent who strengthened the battalion set off from the shadow city to every corner of the world—each with a small black satchel...
The first batch of Misaka sisters who came to experience life have completed a two-hour body adjustment experiment. With the efforts of technician Xiling, we have created a space device that can imitate the world circuit, so that the part of the research institute The underground space and the shadow city are overlapped. This simplified version of the "world circuit" greatly facilitates our hyperspace transportation. More than 100 Misaka sisters including 10031 are the first beneficiaries of this technology. The treatment was received in the shadow base with well-equipped equipment and sufficient manpower-nearly 3,000 special radiation-type biological adjustment chambers have been prepared there, and the two Xiling hosts are still working overtime to personally supervise the remaining 7,000.
In addition to entering the Shadow City when accepting adjustments, the Misaka sisters still have to live in the research institute. This is to prevent too abnormal phenomena from causing an old fox to pay too much attention to this place—although he may have begun to pay attention to this place now. Too much attention.
But under the interference of Pandora's strong energy field, that guy has burned countless monitoring equipment recently, right
"Speaking of which, this scene is really weird..."
The rescue team who went to the cafeteria to eat together because of a whim during dinner sighed so much.
More than a hundred Misaka sisters with the same appearance, body and clothing sat neatly at the large dining table, eating in an orderly manner, with serious expressions, and the scene was spectacular.
"Hey, the Misaka Network is a very important part of that old fellow Aleister's plan, but he never expected that we would have a way to transfer these 10,000 Misaka sisters to another world. If this is the case, I'm afraid he would rather die than agree to let us help 'treat' the Misaka sisters."
Suddenly thought of something very interesting, Qianqian whispered in my ear, laughing and laughing, and then I got goosebumps all over my body—this girl was blowing into my ears and eyes!
"Seeing my brother and sisters coming, Misaka 10031 was very happy. Just now, Misaka 10031 stood up and tried to say hello to her brother, but it didn't seem to attract attention. Misaka 10031 added a little disappointed."
Just as I was busy suppressing the goosebumps on my body, a mechanized voice suddenly sounded from the side, diverting my attention.
"Uh... sorry..." I turned my head in embarrassment, and was staring blankly at a certain Misaka sister. I don't know how long this child has been standing up. "Then what, how does your body feel?"
"I feel good now, but when I first came out of the treatment equipment, my spine felt a little itchy. Misaka 10031 reported seriously."
It seems that the things developed by the Xiling technician over there are really reliable. If the spine is itchy, it proves that the entire body renewal process has been successfully started.
"Are you still used to living here?" I smiled and rubbed Misaka 10031's head. "Let's just make do with it. I'll arrange a better place for you in two days. It's a brand new city."
Very rarely, sister Misaka blushed slightly, then nodded quickly and said: "Misaka is very, very happy living here, and Misaka likes the kind people here very much. Thank you, and the other Misaka sisters also hope to come over as soon as possible... Misaka 10031 felt that he had a lot to say but couldn't find the right adjectives, so he blushed eagerly... "
"Okay... I understand," I patted the excited little girl who had just escaped from a nightmare and ushered in a new life with a smile, I turned around and said to my sister, "Sister, the next batch of Misaka sisters should also Coming soon?"
"It will be delivered tomorrow." My sister nodded, "If Aleister doesn't plan to continue to make some small tricks." V
