The Puppeteer of Academy City
Chapter 700: escape from reality
Within a day, two major events, the Pope's speech and Russia's formal declaration of war on Academy City, occurred one after another.
Academy City immediately declared a state of emergency and imposed a curfew—from 8:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. the next morning.
Due to the particularity of Academy City: the vast majority of citizens are students, most of whom are under high school students, and there are more or less access restrictions, so this curfew did not receive much resistance.
Perhaps feeling the tension of the atmosphere, before seven o'clock in the evening, the streets were already empty and there were few people.
After ensuring that most of the citizens returned to their residences, members of the security force and law enforcement team finally had the opportunity to breathe a sigh of relief and start patrolling in shifts.
As the head of the "Law Enforcement Team", Ling Xingye's work has just begun—
Hosted by the General Council, the online meeting that brought together key people from all aspects of Academy City officially started.
Even the legendary director Aleister rarely attended the meeting.
The pre-war mobilization meeting was concise and clear, and quickly established the official tone of Academy City—challenge!
Take active defensive measures to meet the battle, but will not take the initiative to attack.
After all, this is an academy city dominated by students, and it is located in Tokyo, so theoretically it does not have the ability to take the initiative.
Moreover, it is really not a wise choice to confront the Christianity with two billion believers head-on with a mere city.
Relying on Academy City's high technology that has been ahead of the outside world for 30 years to implement defense strategies, delaying time, and waiting for the mediation of the international community is the most likely means of victory...
Of course, these are superficial rhetoric and countermeasures, and it may be useful to fool other people, but for Ling Xingye and other people who know the "inside the city" - don't take the initiative? It's good to hear such words, but it is absolutely impossible to take them seriously.
The content of the following meeting also confirmed his guess.
"...Ling Xingye," was directly named by the host, "Next, your law enforcement team needs to take on more responsibilities—we have decided to hand over the daily security of the city to you and the discipline committee. As for the security forces, only the minimum The maximum number of personnel will guide and cooperate with your work."
As for the main body of the guard force, all "police turned into the army" are ready to deal with the enemy's attack.
But in fact, Academy City has its own defense force, and if it only needs to defend the mainland, it is actually enough.
Now that the guards have been dispatched early, it is obviously not just for the simple purpose of "defending the homeland".
But these have nothing to do with Ling Xingye directly, he just nodded to accept the order - from the perspective of the "leader", this means that the power of the law enforcement team has expanded, which is a good thing.
The General Council obviously anticipated the current situation long ago, and has already prepared a complete plan. At this time, everyone is called for a meeting just to announce everyone's tasks.
The host hardly paused, and read one by one, and the people who were named had no objection, either agreed or acquiesced.
Finally, Chairman Aleister finally spoke: "Although the war has already begun, we don't need to be too nervous. The competition in modern warfare is ultimately the strength of the technology industry—and in this regard, we have an absolute generational advantage over the outside world."
Hearing the words of the man who created Academy City single-handedly, everyone felt relieved.
Even people who don't usually deal with him have to admit that the existence of Chairman Aleister has really inspired people's hearts.
"The curfew can continue, but there is no need to be so tense." Director Aleister continued, "From ten o'clock in the evening to five o'clock in the morning of the next day."
"What's the difference between this and usual?" Someone said immediately.
"It will be a little stricter than usual." Aleister said, "My goal is to maintain my daily life as much as possible... It's just a war, not enough to break the daily life of Academy City."
Hearing this sentence, Ling Xingye couldn't help applauding softly.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but during the teleconference, Chairman Aleister only had a blank avatar, but Ling Xingye felt that his gaze was on him.
— Are these words specifically for me?
Ling Xingye thought to himself.
His pot in the world is "unchanged daily".
The Realm of the Pot is the concrete projection of the silver puppet master's subconsciousness and essence.
Ling Xingye doesn't like his routine being disrupted.
—In other words, did Chairman Aleister make this decision specifically to bind me to Academy City to work for him?
Walking home alone, Ling Xingye silently thought about the content of the meeting just now.
After the meeting, Ling Xingye held a small meeting with Qifan and the others at the headquarters to explain the tasks.
Then they "get off work" and go home.
As long as there are no special circumstances, at the end of the day, Ling Xingye must return home to rest—this is also part of his "daily life".
Because the curfew has been enforced, Ling Xingye is the only one on the street, not even an unmanned taxi.
Ling Xingye hesitated, whether to use a little bit of privilege and ask someone to send a car to take him back.
"Forget it, it doesn't take much trouble anyway." After thinking about it, Ling Xingye decided to go on his own way—maybe the speed could be a little faster.
Just as he set up the silk thread and was about to fly into the air, a figure suddenly appeared at the edge of his vision.
Suddenly stopped his figure, Ling Xingye was fully on guard, and the clown also rushed out of the travel bag, looking like he was about to pounce.
Then it turned out to be an acquaintance.
Liu Yinjian, the school doctor who wears round-frame glasses and a doctor's white coat; he is also the former No. 1 killer.
"Ms. Liu, it's you..." Ling Xingye continued to use the address in the academy, "Please don't be so elusive... Good evening."
"Good evening." Liu Yinjian nodded back with a smile, "If I really wanted to be elusive, I wouldn't appear in front of you—Ling Xingye, you need to be more vigilant if you act alone."
"I will, teacher." Ling Xingye accepted the teacher's instruction humbly, "Then, what's the matter with you suddenly coming to see me? And sister Yao? It seems that I haven't seen her all this time."
"She was doing her job with another Baiyin," Liu Yinjian said.
"It's Baiyin. Senior Xiao, right?" Ling Xingye frowned slightly, "We need two Baiyins to dispatch together, is the automatic puppet rampant? Doesn't seem to feel any movement?"
"Because the latest model is very concealed." Liu Yinjian said, "Moreover, the most troublesome place now is not this Academy City, but the whole of Tokyo, and even the whole of Japan."
Therefore, Bai Yinyao and Bai Yinxiao led the members of the flower group and were busy fighting fires and destroying the automatic puppets.
The latest type of automatic puppet—"Silver 0" is made of flesh and blood, which is more concealed~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Moreover, these "Silver 0" on the island are all spread from Academy City, and they are generally Possesses supernatural powers around level 2, more powerful and difficult to deal with.
In order to deal with these troubles, Baiyin Yao had no time to come back.
"So serious? Do you need my help?" Ling Xingye just remembered that he is also a silver puppet master.
"No, Yao said, just let you concentrate on your own business." Liu Yinjian shook his head, "However, she has a piece of advice for me to pass on to you."
"Please say."
"Yao she said, I hope you will always remember—clearly distinguish who is your real enemy!"
"Understood, I will let people pay attention to the relevant information about the moving puppet."
…
"By the way, remember to collect information about the automatic puppets, and write it down..."
In the memory palace, Ling Xingye made a mark in a conspicuous place to remind himself to arrange staff tomorrow.
Then, still feeling insufficient, he called up the list and files of all members of the law enforcement team, and arranged their next work one by one...
As a level 4 powerful person, Ling Xingye's brain computing power is comparable to that of a supercomputer. As long as he is willing to put in the effort, it is not impossible to arrange the work of thousands of people.
but…
"Xingye, don't you have to worry about work during dinner?" Hitomi Shiranui couldn't help but said.
"Besides, there's no need to do this!" Shokuhou Misaki, the leader of the faction, also complained about his working methods.
At this moment, at the dining table, Ling Xingye looked at the two girls in front of him.
Why do I think about work while eating?
"Of course I'm escaping from reality..."
It is meaningless to hide what's on your mind in front of these two girls, so Ling Xingye told the truth.
