Chapter 123: The phone calls are constant
"Squeak—"
"Whoa-la-"
The valve is gently unscrewed, and hot water is sprayed from the shower.
A little dirty hand slowly approached the hot water timidly.
"Hot Hot Hot"
Probably a little uncomfortable, the little hand quickly retracted.
After adjusting the water temperature again, the owner of the little hand breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the small bench, and sat down under the shower.
"Oh unlucky"
Tatami sat there in frustration, letting the water from the shower run down her body.
On his stomach, there was a large dark blue bruise, which hurt when touched lightly.
This scar was left by Saber that night, but today it was hit by Mikoto Misaka's super electromagnetic cannon, and the black blue seems to be more serious.
"Didi"
Suddenly, a rapid sound woke Tatami from the warm water.
"What's that?"
Tatami looked around suspiciously, and finally locked onto the brain maintenance device around his neck.
"What's going on"
Tatami tapped the black box around his neck with some confusion before it stopped chirping.
"Dididi"
As soon as the voice on his neck stopped, Tatami heard his cell phone ring again in the clothes he had kept next to him.
Hurriedly screwed the valve on, pulled down the towel next to him and barely wiped the water on his body, wrapped his body in a bath towel, and took out his mobile phone.
Looking at the bangs that were still dripping on his forehead, Tatami sighed helplessly, "Alas, I hope it's waterproof."
After complaining, Tatami found out that it was an unfamiliar number, and after a moment of hesitation, he pressed the answer button.
"Mossi Moxi"
"Is it the World Realm Bridge Tower Tammy?"
A somewhat familiar voice came over the phone, and it sounded a little old.
"I'm Tatami, may I ask you," Tatami asked in confusion at first, but quickly reacted, "Are you Dr. Quack in this voice?" ”
"Well, I think your words are rude, but yes, it's me."
Tatami could clearly hear the helplessness in the other party's tone.
"Why did you call at this time? I'm still taking a shower. ”
"It's about the brain maintenance device." The Soul Chaser didn't say much nonsense, and directly explained the intention.
"Speaking of the brain maintenance device," Tatami tapped the black box around his neck with his hand, "it rang just now, what's going on?" ”
"That's exactly what I'm trying to say."
Listening to Tatami's words, Soul Chaser picked up a drawing on the table and said, clasping the phone around his neck and saying, "It's been a week since you last put on a brain maintenance device, right?" ”
"That's right."
Tatami calculated that Saber could only exist for seven days, and that she had left the night before, drawing her the day before she put on the brain maintenance device, which meant that it was the seventh day.
"It's ringing because it's running out of power, and it only lasts for seven days."
"Does it need electricity to drive?"
Listening to the words of the Soul Chaser in the Underworld, Tatami looked a little surprised, he didn't expect such a small thing to be electric.
"Nonsense!" The Soul Chaser of the Underworld said curiously, "How does it work without electricity?" I don't even understand this bit of common sense, but you're still a humanoid library! ”
"Well, I'm just a little surprised." Tatami touched his nose in embarrassment, then asked, "So what now?" Go to your place to change the battery? ”
"I can't change the battery." Soul Chaser said in a somewhat reproachful tone, "Last time, you didn't listen to my advice and asked me to rush to work to make it overnight, the time was a bit rushed, and the work was not very perfect, so that it could not change the battery, but could only recharge. ”
"You mean I'm going to plug one wire into the socket and the other end around my neck like a cell phone charge?"
Tatami asked, the corners of his mouth twitching.
"No, we have to replace it with another brain maintenance device and charge it with a special charger, but," the Soul Chaser of the Underworld was silent for a moment, and then said, "The charger and the other brain maintenance device were taken away by a guy who claimed to be Mo Ruochen, a member of the Dark News, holding the order of the chairman. ”
"That guy?"
Hearing the words of the Soul Chaser in the Underworld, the expression on Tatami's face became a little solemn.
"I also know some of the situation on the other side of the city, and I've heard a little about the dark news, if I'm not mistaken, you're the leader of news, right?"
"That's right, I'm the leader of news, and Mo Ruochen is indeed a member of our news." Tatami leaned against the wall, bangs on her forehead covering her eyes.
"I've heard of that guy Mo Ruochen, he is an expert in the brain, you can ask him to help you replace the brain maintenance device." Soul Chaser listened to Tatami's words, nodded and said.
"But," Immortal Chaser's voice changed suddenly, "you'd better send someone you trust to watch while you change the device." ”
"For what?"
"That guy is holding Aresta's orders, I guess it may have something to do with Aresta, I'm afraid he will do something to your brain." Stygian Soul Chaser glanced in the direction of the Aresta building and said to Tatami.
"Is it okay to say it so blatantly?"
"Are you worried that our conversation will be overheard by Aresta? Then you can rest assured, because he still doesn't have the guts to tap my mobile phone. ”
When the Soul Chaser said this, his tone was full of confidence, but he did have the capital of self-confidence, and he was still Aresta's savior, if Aresta cared about anyone in this city, it was the Soul Chaser of the Underworld.
"I know, thank you for the reminder, I'll pay attention."
"That's it, I still have surgery to do, next time if something happens, you can call this number, as long as you still have a breath I will definitely save you back, this is a doctor's promise."
"I know."
Hanging up the phone, Tatami threw the phone on top of his clothes, took off the towel and re-unscrewed the valve.
"Whoa-la-"
The water splashed on him, and Tatami raised his head slightly, letting the hot water fall on his face.
"Wait a minute, I'll change the brain maintenance device, I don't know if it's an illusion, my head hurts a little."
Rubbing his temples, Tatami carefully dried her body and hair, put on a bath towel, threw her dirty clothes into the washing machine, grabbed her phone and walked out of the bathroom.
"Dididi"
There are surprisingly many calls today, but I didn't expect another one to come not long after the phone was hung up, which made Tatami a little curious, knowing that his phone would not ring once in three days.
And this seems to be another phone number that I don't recognize, not so much a phone number, but a bunch of garbled characters.
"It's not midnight yet, how can there be a midnight bell?"
Looking at the gibberish on the screen, Tatami spit out angrily and pressed the answer button.
"Humanoid library, long time no see"
Familiar electronic tones, familiar tones.
"Aresta"
Tatamy's face suddenly turned ugly, and the upside-down creature reappeared in front of him.
If you ask Tatami who he least wants to see in the school city, it must be Aresta.
"Looks like you're not welcoming me, and this is just our second conversation."
Aresta looked at the image in front of her, the corners of her mouth slightly hooked.
"Is there anything wrong with you?"
The first thing Tatami remembered was the call he had just made to him.
Could it be that the call with the Soul Chaser was heard by that guy Aresta? Isn't that guy in the Underworld Soul Chaser very confident?
"There is indeed something, as a humanoid library, do you know the person of Dao Ji Shen Qiusha?"
Tatami immediately remembered the shrine maiden with the same long black hair as herself, "What's wrong with her?" ”
"That's what I'm going to tell you, I have a mission to give you news!"
