The Puppeteer of Academy City

Seeing the clown rushing towards him like an arrow from the string, Ling Xingye was also taken aback, and quickly pulled the silk thread, trying to stop it.

But this time it was a step too late. Under the surprised eyes of others, Ling Xingye and his new puppet collided fiercely.

"What's the situation..." Ling Xingye lamented in his heart, feeling that the new puppet was very unfriendly, "Sure enough, let's continue to use sprites."

"It is the puppet master's incompetence to be unable to control his own puppets." Suddenly, such words came from behind him.

Ling Xingye turned around and looked, and it was the puppet clown who was talking... It's just that the clown in front of him is no longer the bald puppet image before, but a suit of clothes, shoes and hats he found from somewhere. It is no different from ordinary human beings.

Ling Xingye was startled, and immediately looked around, only to find that he was no longer in the lounge just now, and surrounded by an illusory dark space that stretched into the distance.

"Did you do it?" Ling Xingye raised his eyes to look at the clown opposite.

The latter's rigid metal face softened as if melting, revealing a smile: "It's the first time we meet, please take care of me, Xingye."

"Who are you?" Ling Xingye asked.

"I am you."

"You are... Qianji?!" Ling Xingye frowned and thought for a while, and the name immediately popped up in his mind, "Is that really the case?"

Ling Xingye already knew about his second personality being "Qianji". It was also because of this that he was always on guard against the other party, not daring to let this guy appear easily.

In the end, I still couldn't escape...

—Under a strong enemy, this is also a compromise that has to be made.

In this regard, Ling Xingye is also aware of it, and regards it as the price that must be paid if he wants to gain power.

It can even be said that "Qian Ji" chose the body of a puppet buffoon instead of Ling Xingye himself, which is already very fortunate.

As if hearing what Ling Xingye was thinking, the clown—Ling Qianji shook his head: "You made a mistake, Xingye."

As he spoke, he waved his hand and summoned a mirror out of thin air, and placed it in front of Ling Xingye.

"Who is the puppet has not yet been determined."

Through the mirror, Ling Xingye was surprised to see that he was also in the image of a monster!

He quickly looked down at his hands.

Zheng... the wrist knife popped out.

The ten fingers of both hands are slender, and the appearance of spherical joints can still be seen.

"Don't be nervous." Ling Qianji said, "Although you are the one who has occupied the magpie's nest, I can give you a chance to compete fairly."

"compete?"

"That's right," Ling Qianji nodded, "Competing for the ownership of this body."

"Huh? Are you kidding me! Why do you have to compete with me like this?" Ling Xingye flatly refused.

"There is no rejection, only victory or defeat." Ling Qianji said coldly, "Or...can I consider you to admit defeat directly?"

Ling Xingye didn't continue to answer, he instinctively rejected Ling Qianji's so-called "competition".

At this time, Ling Qianji spoke again: "Xingye, let me ask you, what is the difference between a puppet master and a puppet?"

"The difference? Isn't it clear at a glance?" Ling Xingye was confused by the sudden question.

"What I'm asking is not so superficial. I'm asking you about the existence of two people who are exactly the same in appearance, ability, and strength. The side that becomes the puppet master dominates the battle, and the other side becomes a puppet to increase combat power. Where is the difference between the two?"

"Ben... Instinct?" Ling Xingye blurted out.

"What are you kidding?" Ling Qianji looked over with a strange expression, and then said, "It's the responsibility! The one who can bear all this is the one who manipulates the silk thread, and the cowardly one who keeps running away can only become a puppet to be manipulated! "

—What is inexplicable?

Ling Xingye was confused when he heard it, but he could also see the other party's sternness. Talked for a long time, but did not do anything after all.

Perhaps it was because of the inability to fight in this strange space. But in short, Ling Xingye has calmed down, trying to find a way to escape.

"...starry night! starry night!"

Hitomi Shiranui's calling sounded in his ears. At first it seemed to be coming from a distant place, but then it quickly zoomed in and became clearer and clearer.

Soon, Ling Xingye felt that someone was shaking him hard.

Then he woke up.

Looking at the concerned eyes around him, Ling Xingye quickly stood up and said that he was fine.

According to Hitomi Shiranui, the clown lost control and rushed towards him just now, which made him unconscious for two minutes.

No one seemed to have noticed the abnormal situation that just happened.

Looking at the clown carefully for a moment, Ling Xingye withdrew his gaze.

No matter what the reason was, Ling Qianji seemed to have no intention of doing more for the time being.

That being the case, Ling Xingye didn't delve into what happened just now. Commander Wenhua asked for a test field, and planned to continue to familiarize himself with the performance of the clown.

People without long-term considerations must have near-term worries. The most important thing right now is to deal with the water behind.

As for Ling Qianji and so on, it belongs to "internal conflicts" and is temporarily suppressed.

"Xingye, are you okay?" Shiranuo Tong was still not at ease.

"Don't worry, it's not a big problem." Ling Xingye calmed down with a relaxed expression, "It's just that I'm not familiar with the performance of the new puppet."

Then, Ling Xingye dived into the experimental field and continued to manipulate the clown to rampage.

The performance of the new puppet is too good, but Ling Xingye is not very comfortable with it.

Outside the experimental field, looking at Ling Xingye who was struggling alone inside ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Shiranui bit his lip lightly.

"You can't waste time here, even if you can't fight, you have to find a way to help Xingye!" She raised her hand and patted her cheek to cheer herself up.

Looking at the time again, there are less than three hours left before the ultimatum of the water behind.

In such a short time, whether Ling Xingye can get acquainted with the new puppet is still unknown.

That being the case...then we can only buy time.

Thinking of this, Hitomi Shiranui took out his mobile phone and called Qifan, telling him and the people in the underground command center to evacuate and hide quickly, and told the law enforcement team members to hide as much as possible to avoid being caught by the water behind.

Then, worried, she issued a warning to all members of the "group" through "mail sending and receiving".

Then, he called Lily Mezas and asked her to take care of Chihiro Isshiki and Miyu Yakushiji.

One name after another flashed across his mind, and Hitomi Shiranui quickly screened out all the people who were closely related to Ling Xingye, and made arrangements one by one.

Finally, her fingertips hesitated for a moment between the two "Misaka" and chose Misaka Mikoto's number.

"Misaka Mikoto-san, the incident happened suddenly, but I hope you can take Misaka 10001 together to protect Saten Ruiko and Uiharu Shiri... Yes, there is a possibility of being attacked, please be careful, and notify us immediately if you find the enemy! "

…

In the early morning, the sky just turned white.

"It's almost time." A blind man on the street suddenly looked up at the rising sun in the east.

Then, he looked down at the phone screen.

"It seems that Xingye still needs more time. If that's the case, then we can only take the initiative to fight for it." Tu Fanghu put away his phone, closed his eyes, and continued to play the role of a blind person, "Oh, I'm his partner after all."
