The Puppeteer of Academy City

"In the end... is it still here?" Standing at the door of his student apartment, Ling Xingye sighed helplessly, took out the key and opened the door.

"So, excuse me!" Ling Chanjuan cheered a little, and rushed in from Ling Xingye's side, "Oh, is this where Junior Brother lives?"

The girl let out a yell.

"Please come in." Ling Xingye shook his head, then turned to greet the other three.

Besides Hitomi Shiranui, Misaka Mikoto and Misaka 10001 also followed.

On the street just now, Ling Chanjuan said that she wanted to live in Ling Xingye's house, and she was immediately opposed by everyone.

Including Ling Xingye—he lived in a one-person apartment, and there was no room for a second person at all. Didn’t Kamijou Touma move into the bathtub next door?

Shiranui Hitomi is very wary of this childhood sweetheart who suddenly appeared, especially because she used the ambiguity of gender to establish an unusually close relationship with Ling Xingye—it would be fine if Ling Chanjuan was a boy, but she suddenly "becomes" a girl. Too close a relationship is troublesome.

And... Shiranui looked at Ling Chanjuan who was checking back and forth in the room.

— This girl is dangerous in every sense...for Xingye.

Misaka Mikoto recommended the hotel she frequented, and even offered to lend her the room she had rented for a long time, but Ling Chanjuan still refused.

So, for some unknown reason, she followed along.

As for Misaka 10001, he actually "lived together" with Ling Xingye for a period of time, and he followed naturally.

Seemingly feeling the low air pressure around her, Ling Chanjuan smiled and said: "Okay, don't be nervous, I just have some things I want to talk to my junior brother. I will go back to the hotel later."

"Then you guys have a good chat, I'll make tea." Hitomi Shiranui put down her schoolbag and walked into the kitchen.

"I'll help." Misaka 10001 also followed in.

Misaka Mikoto looked around and could only sit down awkwardly.

Ling Xingye simply tidied up the room, pushed aside the tools and parts scattered all over the floor, and left a sufficient space in the middle of the room for a low table.

Ling Chanjuan stopped running around and sat down obediently.

After a while, Hitomi Shiranui and Misaka 10001 brought tea and snacks, and then sat down together.

Ling Chanjuan ate and drank happily, without feeling restrained by being surrounded by people at all.

She didn't speak suddenly until the others couldn't sit still.

"Hey, junior brother, let me ask you..." Ling Chanjuan leaned sideways to Ling Xingye's side, pretending to be mysterious, "How far have you and these girls developed?"

While speaking, her tone and demeanor did not have the restraint of a girl at all, but more like a male friend of Ling Xingye's...

"What are you talking about!" Ling Chanjuan's voice happened to be heard by everyone, and Misaka Mikoto immediately jumped up like a cat whose hair has exploded.

Although Shiranuo Tong remained calm, he also pricked up his ears and looked at Ling Xingye seriously.

And Misaka 10001 replied directly: "Misaka is the master's maid..."

Before he finished speaking, Misaka Mikoto put him down.

Ling Xingye rubbed his forehead with some headaches, and sighed silently: "Okay, calm down...Xiaoyue'er...Ling Chanjuan didn't mean that."

Although she looks like a delicate and beautiful **** the outside, she is actually a mischievous ghost... But Ling Chanjuan was trained as the next head teacher of the Ling family's class since she was a child, and when it comes to serious business, she is also very serious.

So Ling Xingye knew that what she really wanted to ask was not her emotional gossip at all.

"Let's be honest, Hitomi and I have no secrets, and Misaka and the others are also reliable companions—if it's about automatic puppets, they all know about it."

Ling Chanjuan was a little disappointed and speechless: "Little brother's serious look is really boring...Forget it, I'll just talk about the business."

"One of the reasons why I came to Academy City this time, along with other senior brothers and sisters, was that I received a letter of plea for help from Sister Feifei." Ling Chanjuan said, "However, Lu Xuyang has been successfully rescued by you, little junior brother, so this The mission is no longer established."

"However, it also caused new problems..." Ling Chanjuan said.

"You mean... the automatic puppets that flowed from Baoliang's magic theater?" Ling Xingye continued.

"Yes." Ling Chanjuan nodded, "Nearly 5,000 automatic puppets escaped from the battlefield between you and Baoliang, and have spread rapidly around the world.

"The second reason for the assembly of the Ling family class is to deal with this problem."

Ling Xingye remained silent, he had his own fault for this matter.

In any case, the direct reason for the proliferation of five thousand automatic puppets was that Ling Xingye failed to maintain the enchantment seal of the magic theater, which allowed them to escape smoothly.

"As for how to deal with these automatic puppets, there are actually huge differences within the Silver Organization." Ling Chanjuan continued, "The battle itself is not a problem, but the question is—should the ban be lifted?"

"Ban?" Ling Xingye repeated.

"About the ban on Baiyin puppet masters' leaving the mirror." Ling Chanjuan said, "Perhaps you don't know yet, except for a very small number of existences like the Lingjiaban, in fact Baiyin's puppet masters almost never take a step outside the mainland. Relatively Yes, there is a similar ban in Yanshi.

"It's like building a wall to block all the puppet masters and automatic puppets within the territory of the mainland. Only a very few cases can 'smuggle' out of the country."

Ling Xingye nodded: "It seems to be the case. Is there any agreement?"

"Yes, according to the 'box theory', the ancestors of ancient Yanshi and Baiyin reached a tacit agreement and prepared to conduct a huge experiment. They closed the 'mysterious side' of the entire continent and built a relatively independent 'box' , various experimental researches are carried out in it, as well as mutual confrontation and war.

"But now ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ the automatic puppets are the first to breach the contract—they choose to break through the 'box' and develop themselves first."

"So," Ling Xingye continued, "Baiyin should also take corresponding measures to protect humans and fight against automatic puppets?"

"That's right, but there is no disagreement on this point. The problem is later..." Ling Chanjuan paused, "The conservatives in the organization think that it is only necessary to send people to destroy all the automatic puppets that have flowed out, and then go back to ' In the box', continue this grand experiment that has lasted for millennia.

"There are also radicals who believe that our puppet masters should also take the initiative to go out and deploy around the world first, blocking the way out of automatic puppets. And expand the scope of the experiment to the entire world—increase the sample size and speed up the progress of experimental research."

Ling Chanjuan looked at Ling Xingye seriously: "I am inclined towards the radical group, because in this way, the puppet masters of the Ling family class who are already active abroad can gain greater voice and decision-making power."

"So, Xingye," Ling Chanjuan called his name so seriously for the first time, "Come and help me too, support the radicals together, and push the Ling family class to glory—fulfilling father's greatest long-cherished wish!"
