The Puppeteer of Academy City

"Because my sister's hair is a little longer." Ling Xingye pointed out the flaws of Misaka 10001.

Of course, this kind of detail can only be distinguished by people like Ling Xingye and Shiranui Tong who have absolute memory ability.

"Wow, Senior Xingye, how meticulous your observation is!" Saten Saten exclaimed.

Because I am a person with absolute memory ability, and I am also a silver.

But Ling Xingye didn't answer her directly, but shrugged and asked: "By the way, what's the matter with your outfit? Is it because of the performance?"

"That's right, that's right," Saten Ruiko said first, "The Misaka sisters will perform on stage together later!"

"Oh? Then I will look forward to it." Ling Xingye looked at the two girls again, "Then, I will leave first. Prepare well."

After being told by Ling Xingye, they realized that this is still a closed area. So he hurriedly pushed Misaka Mikoto back to the room to prevent other tourists who strayed in from seeing her.

Shiranuotong said goodbye to them temporarily, and chased after Ling Xingye.

"Where are you going now?" Hitomi Shiranui walked beside him naturally.

Ling Xingye thought for a while: "Let's go to the restaurant and have something to eat."

"Sure enough, you didn't go to the restaurant just now." Hitomi Shiranui said, "We also went to eat just now, but we didn't find you Xingye."

"Well, I went to the library first."

Looking at the boy who was walking straight ahead without looking sideways, Hitomi Shiranui frowned slightly: "Is there something on your mind? Did something happen to you in the library just now?"

Ling Xingye turned to look at the girl, with a smile on his face: "I'm thinking about a question."

"What question bothers you?"

"I was thinking—what is the definition of a human being." Ling Xingye turned his head and looked towards the room near the end of the corridor, "Can a clone be considered a human being?"

"Starry night?" Hitomi Shiranui's face was full of worry, "What's the matter? This doesn't seem like a question you would ask!"

"Isn't it you who firmly believed that Miss Misaka was a real human from the beginning?"

Shiranuo Tong stretched out his hands to hold Ling Xingye's face, and made him turn back to look at him: "Why do you become suspicious at this time?"

"It's not her," Ling Xingye pressed the girl's hand, "It's not Misaka sisters, don't worry."

"What exactly happened?" Hitomi Shiranui asked, "Xingye, you can tell me what happened, don't be alone in your heart!"

The girl's eyes were shining brightly, and she looked at him affectionately.

"Well, I will tell you when I go back today." Ling Xingye held her hands and looked away again—to avoid the situation of being forced to read the memory, "It is not appropriate to talk about it in detail here."

Hitomi Shiranui withdrew his ability in embarrassment—the two were so familiar with each other that they could guess each other's thoughts and upcoming actions.

Ling Xingye also mastered a little trick to hinder her ability.

"Okay, I will remember it well." Hitomi Shiranui said, "Xingye can't deny it, otherwise I will come hard!"

The girl clenched her fist and threatened.

"Okay, okay," Ling Xingye said with a smile, "I won't forget it, after all, we are all people with absolute memory ability."

"Don't be perfunctory, I'm not Misaka-san and the others."

Ling Xingye breathed a sigh of relief, temporarily put aside the troubles in his heart, and walked towards the restaurant with Shiranui Tong.

After lunch, according to the activity guide in the brochure, there will be a major event for the Midsummer Festival at two o'clock in the afternoon.

Although the content is kept secret, as the performance time approaches, more and more people know that Misaka Mikoto will perform on stage.

As one of the trump cards of Tokiwadai Middle School, Misaka Mikoto has been a golden signboard of the school since she entered school. All kinds of important activities are absolutely indispensable.

This midsummer festival is of course no exception.

Quite a few people came to the midsummer festival just to see the demeanor of this superpower with their own eyes.

Long before the start of the summer vacation, the arrangements for this midsummer festival had already been made. But because of the sudden appearance of Misaka 10001 recently, the school temporarily changed its mind.

In order to expand the publicity effect, and to make Miss Misaka known to more people, the school's senior management abruptly changed the content of the performance that had already been scheduled.

Misaka Mikoto's violin solo was changed to the Misaka sisters' ensemble.

Misaka 10001 plays the piano to accompany her sister.

"When did sister Misaka learn to play the piano?" Seeing the piano prepared on the stage, Ling Xingye asked.

As Misaka Mikoto herself mentioned before, she plays the violin very well—but the piano is just "average", and it's impossible to play on stage.

So this piano can only be prepared for Misaka 10001.

Although Misaka 10001 has learned a lot, playing the piano is not a necessary skill for combat, so it is impossible to quickly master it through the learning device in the research institute.

"Misaka said that she can still connect to the Misaka network, so it is a skill obtained directly from the network." Hitomi Shiranui explained, "Their network also seems to have the ability to learn devices."

Hitomi Shiranui is an expert in this field, so she has the right to speak: "In addition, she is very familiar with this learning process, so it is not impossible to master a musical instrument in a short time."

"It's really a convenient ability." Ling Xingye sighed.

"Yeah, after all, it's the information age now." Shiranui Hitomi also said with emotion, when she developed her abilities, she also borrowed a lot from the concept of information network.

"It is said that the ranking among the level 5 of Academy City is based on the practical aspect of its ability." Ling Xingye looked at her, "According to this standard, if Hitomi is also promoted to level 5, it may be the first place, right?"

"Don't talk about me~www.wuxiaspot.com~ In fact, Xingye is the one who is most likely to upgrade." Hitomi Shiranui said, "Because your upper limit of ability has not yet been determined."

"No way," Ling Xingye, who was recently determined to be level 4, shook his head, "My ability exists solely for manipulating puppets, and basically has no other practicality. Even if I can become a superpower, it will be considered the most useless person. Ability to use it?"

Ling Xingye really thinks so—the network and big data are the most powerful forces in the new century.

Even for superhumans.

Because the superpower developed by Academy City relies on the computing power of the brain at its core.

Like Misaka Mikoto, in addition to the "Railgun", she is also a well-deserved genius in daily learning.

Because her brain's "calculation" ability is far beyond ordinary people.

"If you can use the Internet and the computing power of the computer, maybe you can effectively improve your ability level?" Ling Xingye said his whimsical idea.
