Lost Narrative Poetry

Not to mention Jubiao Danxi's weird expression, at least Index was really frightened by Xia Ran.

"Really, really? I...I don't seem to have any impression..."

She was a little unsure, and looked at the magician in front of her with doubt, but uncertainty meant that she did not directly deny it, and doubt meant that she had been shaken.

The person in front of me shouldn't be from the magical world, right? There didn't seem to be that kind of magician's aura about him, and it did not give her the sense of danger, no hostility or murderous intent... Of course, Index was not too sure.

She also knew that she couldn't make a judgment based solely on her feelings. After all, this was a matter involving her own wealth and life, but she had no choice.

This person appeared directly in front of her, or she just came out of that guy's house and bumped into this person head-on. It was too late to escape now. Regardless of whether what the other person said was true or not, she was still You can only go with the flow and deal with the opponent.

"Of course it's true..."

Xia Ran said with a smile, and naturally reached out to touch the silver-haired nun's head: "But you have no impression? Such a statement is really sad, Index, it has only been a little more than a year, you I actually forgot about it in the blink of an eye..."

"No, no, actually there is a reason. I am...I am..." Index was really panicked. Could it be that everything this person said was true?

Have you been to this city before?

Did you even get to know each other?

However, I have no memory of a year ago!

"Huh? Isn't this a joke?" Xia Ran's acting skills were very superb, and his face showed just the right amount of doubt. He took a step back and looked at the silver-haired little nun carefully, "I shouldn't have mistaken the person. You have been here all year." It seems like nothing has changed, the clothes are still the same as last time..."

Behind him, Jie Biao Danxi tried hard to tighten her expression, trying to maintain her cold personality.

It's just that this thing seems really difficult.

"Hey, something seems not right. Have you changed your clothes?" As if he had just discovered something, Xia Ran shook his head with a dumb smile, "Are you wearing a monk's uniform or an iron virgin?" Ah, why are there so many pins..."

The pure white monastic uniform Index wore seemed to have remained unchanged on the surface, but in fact it was covered with dozens of safety pins. They were pinned to every corner of the clothing. During the summer vacation, The first day's sunshine reflected the shining metallic light.

"Well……"

It was okay not to mention this. When it came to this, Index couldn't help but think of what happened not long ago. She bit her lips hard and made a sound like a puppy biting someone and refusing to let go. , seemed aggrieved and sad.

"What's wrong? Your clothes are like this and you're not wearing a hat. You look like you're in a hurry when you go out?"

The magician still maintained his actor-level acting skills and spoke with a smile, as if he were a real friend reunited after a long absence. He enthusiastically and proactively extended an invitation: "Do you want my help? I'll show you around like last time. This city, or take you to buy new clothes?"

"I...I...don't need this..."

Index opened her mouth, her expression slightly tangled.

It seemed that this person did not have any malicious intentions, and was indeed a friend she had made in this city when she lost her memory, and was not a magician who came to hunt her down, which made her feel a little relieved. But she still didn't dare to accept it like this, and still subconsciously wanted to keep a certain distance.

Firstly, because the matter has not been completely confirmed, and secondly, because she does not want to implicate the other party...

Just like the spiky-headed boy who just destroyed the "Mobile Church" on his body, he seemed to realize something in the end, probably because his special hand really responded to the "Mobile Church". In turn, it is tantamount to proving the existence of the magical power.

So the boy with the hedgehog head began to seriously think about the possibility of what Index said, such as her saying that she was chased by a magician and fell from the roof of the building.

For example, she said that she would have to continue running for her life.

At that time, the spiky-headed boy no longer wanted to drive her out, but he still vaguely hoped that she would stay and be protected... But Index still left the apartment resolutely, because she knew that the boy could not Protect her, but if she stays, she might even harm the other party.

The current situation is also the same. If the person in front of her is a friend she knew before, then Index will be even less able to implicate the other person.

"What's wrong?" The magician tilted his head and asked with some confusion.

"me……"

Index felt that it was too difficult for her. How should she say this? Those magicians are most likely on their way here at this moment, and they can accurately track their location by following the magic power of the "Mobile Church" in them.

If you delay for a while longer, the risk will increase a lot...

etc!

The silver-haired little nun suddenly remembered something. She raised her hands in fear and touched her head. Just as the person in front of her said, she was not wearing her hat... It seemed that the accident not long ago had caused her to Lost my hat in that apartment building.

"What's wrong? Index."

At this time, Xia Ran looked at the silver-haired nun with a concerned expression as if a savior appeared at the critical moment.

Behind him, the girl with red twintails looked at him with an increasingly subtle and alert look, as if she was looking at rotten cabbage.

Although she still didn't know what was going on, it didn't stop her from seeing that this guy seemed to have a lot of information, while the silver-haired nun opposite had some problems, so she was in a state of confusion without thinking. Once you understand, you fall into the trap.

There is caution, there is also suspicion.

But it makes no sense. The other person knows her inside and out, but she is completely unsure about the other person. And as a little girl of fourteen or fifteen years old, how mature can she be?

But the only thing that is certain is that this person has no moral integrity at all!

…

…

Shuisui Institutional Hospital.

This is a single ward, and the air is filled with the unique smell of the hospital. The window next to the bed is open, and the pure white curtains sway in the wind.

The tall red-haired man was lying on the hospital bed, staring blankly at the ceiling without saying a word. His face was wrapped with bandages, and so were his arms. He looked a little serious, but in fact it wasn't serious. To the point of breaking your muscles and bones.

It's just that it's not just a slight scratch. It's quite embarrassing to be neither up nor down, so that's the only way to deal with it.

Steele originally wanted to refuse, but in the end he allowed the people in the hospital to do this. After all, wouldn't it be more embarrassing if it didn't appear that his injuries were more serious? Just like if you cut your finger, you have to make a fuss and be sent to the hospital to lie down on a bed...

Fortunately, this is Academy City, a world on the scientific side, and not his main circle. Otherwise, the bad priest feels that he will definitely find a crack in the ground to sneak in.

Of course, he also felt very sad now, because after all, an acquaintance knew about this embarrassing thing.

A tall and fair-skinned girl with long black hair tied into a ponytail hanging down to her waist was standing quietly in front of his hospital bed. She was another person in the white ward.

She was wearing a T-shirt tied at the waist and a pair of jeans. However, the right arm of the jacket was cut off along with the shoulder. On the contrary, the entire trouser leg of the jeans was cut off from the root of the left leg, which is quite sexy.

In addition to the belt that tightens the trousers, there is also an extremely thick belt hanging diagonally around the waist, just like the belt used to insert pistols in Western movies.

There was also a two-meter-long strip wrapped in cloth, which she held in her hand. It was a Japanese imperial sword "Seven Heavens and Seven Swords" that was more than two meters long, but it was obvious that even in Academy City, a city of superpowers, this kind of thing was like a gun and was not allowed to be swaggering through the city. .

So at this time, Kanzaki Kaori could only conceal his weapons in this way and use some means to enter the hospital.

"..."

"..."

Silence, silence, silence, and an awkward atmosphere permeated the ward.

Probably knowing that if this continued, Steele wouldn't take the initiative to say anything. Kanzaki Kaori breathed out, organized his words, and then asked: "The person who hit you... is the so-called one in this city. A person with abilities?"

"...Yes, it is said that he is a suspected level 5 psychic ability user."

Steele's eyes were like a passenger who had lost his dream at this moment. His eyes had no focus, and his sight seemed to have lost focus. He was still looking at the ceiling blankly, but he still answered Kanzaki Kaori's question. question.

"Level 5? Are they the strongest among the ability users? Why did they attack you?" Kanzaki Kaori frowned, "And the mental ability users... wait, the mental ability users? He Did he control a large group of people to beat you up?"

"..."

"..."

"He said he didn't like me and couldn't stand me being such an arrogant person. He also said he would beat me every time he saw me in the future..."

Steele's facial muscles twitched a few times, and he seemed reluctant to mention such an embarrassing thing, but there was nothing he could do. His companions needed to understand the specific process: "He did control the entire street at that time, which is enough. Hundreds of people..."

"Is that really the case?" Kanzaki Kaori frowned slightly: "Then your injury... huh? It doesn't seem to be that serious? Did he really control hundreds of people to beat you?"

"...No, not everyone came to beat me. After all, the scene was very chaotic, there were so many people, and the disciplinary committee and security officers also rushed over very quickly..."

"How many people hit you?"

"..."

"..."

"……one……"

Steele suddenly felt that having a companion was not a good thing. Why hadn't he found Kanzaki so troublesome before?

"Is that the psychic ability user?" Kanzaki Kaori was a little puzzled, "As far as I know, the only level 5 psychic ability user in this city is a girl, and she is not good at sports, has poor physical fitness, and has no strength. , how could she beat you like this?"

"I was careless and didn't dodge..." Steele argued, "And that wasn't a girl at all, it was obviously a boy!"

"Okay, I understand..." Kanzaki Kaori felt that her mind was a little confused, but seeing that her companion was a little excited and would not argue with him on this matter, she just became a little wary about this matter. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like an accidental and low-probability event.

It is very likely that the other party came specifically for Steele.

And can level 5 ability users represent the attitude of this city to a large extent?

The original tacit understanding between the church and this scientific base camp was going to be broken? Or is it that the people in power in this city have discovered the truth and are unwilling to let themselves and others recycle the "Catalogue of Forbidden Books"?

Kanzaki Kaori thought a lot at this moment. Before she and Steele came in, they had already communicated with Academy City's superior organization, the Five Elements Agency. After all, even the world's top magicians could not hide in this city for a long time without exposing their identities.

They were able to move freely, execute plans, and track Index largely because the Five Elements Agency was turning a blind eye to them. As long as they didn't make too much of a fuss, they wouldn't deliberately hinder them. action.

So she has reason to think that it is very likely that the Five Elements Agency has discovered something and changed its attitude. If this is the case, then the situation is very urgent.

At this time, Steele was tired and didn't want to discuss this topic that made him so embarrassed and angry. He stood up from the bed, looked at Kanzaki Kaori, and asked: "Kanzaki, have you found it? Is she?"

"...I have just discovered her whereabouts, but I was notified later, so I came to see you first." The female "Saint" was silent for a moment and said.

"I have nothing to do, and if you had discovered her at that time, you could have finished this matter first and then come to see me." Steele said with narrowed eyes. "The mission is the most important thing."

"...If you had thought so, she wouldn't have run away at that time." Kanzaki Kaori said in a mechanical tone, "After all, you were the one who was next to her..."

"I've long been used to it!"

The flame magician said coldly, but this behavior was more like concealing something.

…

…

"Is this right here?"

The elevator made a metallic sound like a microwave and stopped on the seventh floor.

The elevator door creaked and slowly opened to both sides. Xia Ran walked out into the corridor first, looking at the environment in front of her and asked.

This dormitory looks like a typical suite-style apartment. It is a square building with doors neatly arranged along the corridors on the walls. The student dormitories are vertical and extend forward, with only two meters between adjacent dormitories.

If you are more adventurous, you can easily jump here from the building opposite.

"That's it..." Index nodded nervously and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that the corridor was empty and there were no enemies waiting for her.

She quickened her pace and walked towards the end of the corridor.

Then, it stopped.

The door was closed tightly, which was natural. After all, it was not yet noon, and Kamijou Touma had probably just left the house not long ago.

"This is it. It seems that the landlord is not at home..." Xia Ran slowly followed the silver-haired nun to the closed door of the apartment and looked at the scene in front of her. "This is the student dormitory. The people here will only be students. If they are not taking extra classes, they are going out to play. We came at the wrong time..."

As if he didn't know anything, he lowered his head and said to the little nun: "If we wait until night, this person will definitely go home by then."

"No, it can't be done... I can't wait so long..." Index shook her head nervously. How could she have time to wait until night to take away the hat?

"Is it important?" the magician asked knowingly.

"It's very important. I must get it back now!" Index nodded vigorously to express her determination.

"That's it..." Xia Ran smiled helplessly and said in a very reassuring tone, "Then leave this matter to me! I will help you get your hat back!"

The next moment, he turned to look at Jubiao Danxi who had a tight face behind him——

"Hey, your ability is space movement, right? Come on, give me a hand, go in and take out the hat!"

"..."

"..."

Jiebiao Danxi took a deep breath, looked down at the stack of documents in her arms, and resisted the urge to smash the thing directly into his face.

From now on, she has been following this person like a secretary...

After all, the other party had not completed filling out the information, so she had no way to go back and submit the document.

So how thick-skinned is this guy? Didn't he realize how much trouble it caused him? Moreover, after he had just finished being cool, he turned around and started giving orders naturally. Did he really feel that he was working hard and doing odd jobs for him? !
