Infinite Simulation: From Konoha To Moon

Chapter 70 Imaginary Number Magic

Chapter 70: Imaginary Number Magic

A familiar scene reminded Li Xiang of the anime he had watched in his previous life.

Headless senior sister.

He picked up his Nokia phone and explained the situation to Astati.

Just then, the door was opened and seven people entered the warehouse.

The leader, a young man, glanced at Li Xiang and said, "I am from the Law and Politics Department, Fourth Squad. I have received a report that you are temporarily detained on suspicion of murder. After the truth is revealed, we will deal with you accordingly."

According to the rules of the Clock Tower, any disputes among magicians, including murder, are handled by the Law and Politics Department.

That's the rule, but aren't you too quick to arrive?

As if you were waiting for me to commit a crime?

Do you also have three precogs?

In the movie "Minority Report," Tom Cruise had three precogs who could predict when someone would commit a crime.

"Hold on."

Astati, wearing a light blue dress, stood at the door and said calmly, "This matter is not your concern."

"What do you mean?"

The young man frowned and said, "There is nothing that the Law and Politics Department cannot handle."

"She means let me handle it."

A woman wearing a strange long dress with vivid flower patterns appeared.

She wore glasses, and her black hair, combed like Yoruichi's, reached her ankles, attracting attention.

When the young man saw her, his face changed slightly, and he put his hand on his chest, saluting, "Captain Hanano Riri."

"You can leave now."

Hanano Riri waved her hand.

The young man was somewhat helpless, but still obeyed his orders and led his men away.

"You must be Li Xiang, right?"

After glancing at him, Hanano Riri turned her gaze to Louis and asked, "Is there anyone else besides you?"

"No."

Li Xiang answered truthfully, "His head suddenly fell off."

Hanano Riri played a significant role in "The Case Files of Lord El-Melloi II."

She was almost the representative figure of the Law and Politics Department, quite formidable.

Even the protagonist, Waver, had been defeated by her.

"It's a locked room murder again."

Hanano Riri showed a clear smile and said, "But unfortunately, for magicians, there are no secrets."

She adjusted her glasses.

In the next moment, her eyes turned into a dazzling blue, taking the shape of snake pupils.

The Snake's Magic Eyes.

The innate magic eyes of the Hanano family.

Their function was to find lost items.

This time, she wanted to find the murder weapon.

The invisible snakes spread out.

"Traces of imaginary number magic."

After a moment, Hanano Riri said, "Someone hid the murder weapon, a knife or sword, in the imaginary space of the warehouse in advance. When Louis arrived, his head was cut off, and the murder weapon was transferred through space, creating a perfect alibi."

Li Xiang was slightly surprised by her words.

Imaginary numbers were extremely rare attributes.

In his impression, only one of the heroines, Matou Sakura, had this attribute.

But later, after being adopted into the Matou family, she was transformed into a water attribute.

Of course, rarity did not necessarily mean power.

Imaginary number magic was a vast magic system.

There was a huge difference between beginners and the ultimate form.

And there was another possibility for using imaginary number magic, magic equipment or magic eyes.

"You mean in advance?"

Li Xiang noticed a blind spot and asked, "Even if he knew that I would come to the warehouse today to pick up the magician's uniform, how could he predict that Louis would come with me?"

"You are sharp."

Hanano Riri nodded.

"There are only two possibilities. One is magic, such as astrology or divination. The other is that Louis is involved. But no matter which one it is, the Law and Politics Department will find out."

After saying that, she looked at Astati.

"Don't you have a sister with an imaginary number attribute? Let me borrow her for two days. You know, even in the entire Clock Tower, there are not many magicians with imaginary number attributes."

"No problem, but she won't be back until tomorrow."

Astati frowned and said.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen to your junior brother with me."

Hanano Riri turned to Li Xiang and said, "Since the truth has not been revealed yet, you will stay in the Law and Politics Department for two days."

Li Xiang remembered the young man from earlier and said, "The captain of the Fourth Squad may be involved. He appeared in the warehouse just after this incident occurred."

"I already know this."

Hanae Rin's lips curled into a cold smile, as if she were a devouring Lion Majesty.

Li Xiang had a sense of déjà vu when it came to Astati.

He was quite interested in Astati's sister.

But he couldn't see her for the time being.

He followed Hanae Rin to the Academy City where the Department of Legal Affairs was located.

It was called confinement, but it wasn't a prison. It was more like an office.

There was a desk, a folding bed, a coffee table, a water dispenser, a laptop, and everything else.

"PowerBook G4, produced by Apple, the most powerful and lightweight widescreen laptop on the market."

Hanae Rin introduced, "If you're bored, you can play with it. Also, if a stranger comes to find you, ignore them. No one dares to lay a hand on the Department of Legal Affairs."

After she left, Li Xiang opened the laptop.

Although it didn't have the League of Legends and Swordsman Online that he used to play in his previous life, he found two familiar games.

Red Alert and Diablo.

These were the games he used to play frequently at the internet cafe during middle school.

"The treatment in the Department of Legal Affairs is pretty good."

Li Xiang thought his first experience as a magician in prison was okay.

Of course, he knew that most of the credit belonged to Astati.

His senior sister, she could handle it. If there was something, she would really take care of it.

The next morning.

Astati had just gotten up when the door opened and a white figure pounced on her, immediately pinning her down.

"Sister!"

The girl with purple hair hugged her and happily shouted.

"Sakura, have you eaten?"

Astati looked at her exceptionally beautiful sister and asked.

"Not yet."

Tohsaka Sakura smiled and said, "I specifically waited to eat with my sister."

Twelve years ago, Astati adopted Tohsaka Sakura from Tohsaka Tokiomi in the name of the Edelfelt family, avoiding her tragic fate of being sent to the Matou family.

Although she herself was unaware of it.

And Astati saved her for another reason, to repay her sister, Tohsaka Rin's favor.

"Did you gain anything from your archaeological expedition with Luviagelita?"

Astati took a bite of her bread and asked.

"Yes."

Tohsaka Sakura held out her fist and opened it in front of her. In her palm was a colorful octagonal crystal.

It was exactly the same as the one given by Ayaka Sajyou not long ago.

"Holy Grail, but unfortunately there's only one."

"Having one is already good enough."

Astati smiled and said, "After all, each one requires an extremely expensive price to form a suspected spiritual particle crystal. It contains sacred power."

"Yeah."

Tohsaka Sakura showed a confident smile, "As long as it exists, I will find it for my sister."

After finishing their meal, Astati took her to the warehouse.

She had already explained the situation to her on the way.

Tohsaka Sakura greeted Hanae Rin and came to Louis' body.

She reached out her hand.

Invisible ripples spread out.

The air distorted.

Only a sound of "clang" was heard as a long sword fell from the void.

The Bloodline on the blade had dried up, but traces could still be seen.

Hanae Rin raised her hand and aimed at the sword, softly uttering a syllable.

Her magic turned into a blue light that covered the sword.
