177 branches.

After Shirai Kuroko had breakfast, even if there was no patrol mission for the time being, he did not act with Mikoto Misaka and others.

Instead, they came to the 177 branch.

She was sitting at her computer desk, taking a quick look at what was on the page.

On the screen, there is a lot of gossip about the clones.

The hidden header of the window also shows reports of accidents at some of the institutes last month.

And those institutes have something to do with cloning technology to some extent.

Shirai Kuroko frowned.

She had a gut feeling that the destruction of these studies was not caused by accident.

The first point.

It is a coincidence that accidents occur so frequently, and that they are concentrated in these cloning-related institutes.

Therefore, it can be speculated that the so-called accident should be an excuse fabricated by some people for a certain purpose.

The second point.

During this time, it happened to be the time period when Mikoto Misaka concentrated on the night and did not return.

Linking these two points, plus the Misaka Dolly she saw yesterday, Shirai Kuroko speculated that those research institutes were most likely destroyed by Mikoto Misaka.

"That said, we should investigate further......

Shirai Kuroko said to himself, closed the computer, and flashed out 177 branches with a whoosh.

After buying a set of clothes at a nearby clothing store, Kuroko Shirai decides to go back to her dormitory to change into her Tokiwadai uniform and sneak into the abandoned research institutes to see if she can find any clues.

Brush!

The space moves back to its dorm room.

Kuroko Shirai didn't change her clothes right away.

Standing in the open space in the middle of the bed, Shirai Kuroko quietly looked in the direction of Mikoto Misaka's bed.

The dorm is a little messy.

It should have been messed up yesterday when Mirei Misaka came to pick up the clothes.

The giant bear puppet is casually thrown on Mikoto Misaka's bed.

Shirai Kuroko smiled helplessly when she saw this, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to change the childish taste of my sister......

Although it is a smile, Shirai Kuroko's eyes are full of feelings called sadness.

Frustrated, declining.

Kuroko Shirai, who was entangled in such emotions, slowly stepped forward, stood at the head of the bed with the bear puppet that was thrown there at random, and carefully arranged it.

"Huh?"

When her fingers touched the butt part of the bear puppet, Shirai Kuroko felt as if she had touched something hard.

What is it?

Inside this...... Seems to be hiding something?

However, it opened like this......

No!

No way!

Kuroko, as a member of the Discipline Commission, how can I peep into other people's privacy, especially if that person is still my sister!

A tangled expression flashed on his face, and Shirai Kuroko shook her head strugglingly, correcting her position again and again before putting away her intense curiosity.

Take out the clothes you just bought and neatly change out of the Tokiwadai uniform.

Then with a 'whoosh', I left the Tokiwadai dormitory.

——————

Arena for throwing balls.

Inoue Yinghua was bored and stood at the rear of the large army of his school.

Although after the morning experiment, the Soul Chaser of the Underworld injected him with a quick recovery potion, but at this time, his body still has not returned to its best state.

On the opposite side is the private Wenhe College, which is not as strong as the five famous schools, but the participants in the competition are all capable people.

Unlike his own side, the highest abnormal ability is only a few single digits, and the incompetent account for 5% of all contestants.

Inoue Yinghua felt that he couldn't win, and there was no possibility of winning.

Therefore, even if the companions in front of him struggled to throw the ball into the cage in the shock wave of ability, and threw dissatisfied glances at him from time to time, Inoue Hideka didn't care.

It's just holding the white ball that belongs to his own camp, and there is a moment of it, and it is thrown into the air very calmly.

The advantages of the opposite school are obvious.

The ten cages in the center of the arena are basically all red balls, and the white stars are scattered in between, which looks extremely dazzling and ironic.

The game has been going on for a long time, and it looks like the time to stop the game is approaching.

The players at Shachuan Middle School no longer have time to take care of Inoue Yinghua, an idle man, and they are all hurrying to throw the ball into the cage every minute and second.

Even though the victory or defeat was already obvious, they did not give up and were determined to hold on until the last moment.

For their behavior, Inoue Yinghua admires it very much.

However, admiration is admiration, but he doesn't want to do useless work.

Inoue Eika doesn't think that by adding his own strength, he can reverse the disadvantage.

What's more, his body is still a little uncomfortable, and he can rest for a while longer.

Now, he has stopped throwing the ball, holding his mobile phone and staring at the number indicating the time on it.

The seconds passed.

With only 20 seconds left before the end of the game, Inoue put away his phone.

With his palm facing the cage in the center of the arena, he activated the magnetic gauntlet.

The rod cage is tilted.

Starting from the first one, in less than twenty seconds, ten rod cages fell to the ground one after another.

The students under the cage ran away in panic and away from danger.

Whether it was the students of Zhachuan Middle School or the students of the private Wenhe College, they all rushed away.

Considering the speed of the student's escape, Inoue Hideka deliberately reduced the strength of the magnetic force to tilt the rod cage in the fastest possible time while ensuring the safety of everyone.

And as the rod cage fell to the ground, the red and white balls inside rolled out of it with a bang.

Under the action of inertia, there is no red ball or white ball left in the cage at this time.

Inoue Yinghua used magnetic gloves to appear under the rod cage at the moment when the rod cage toppled over.

Click, click.

Flutteringly threw the white ball in his hand into it.

The audience was in an uproar, whether it was the players, the audience, or the referee, they were all stunned.

Never seen in this way, in the moments before the end of the game, to turn the tide around!

This simply breaks their traditional competition thinking mode!

But......

No one has stipulated that this method cannot be used.

It was a long time before the whistle blew to mark the end of the game.

"It's over! Winner: Zhagawa Middle School! ”

After a second of silence, the first to cheer was the contestants from Zagawa Middle School.

They thought there was no hope, and no matter how hard they tried, they would definitely lose the game!

However, the ending was reversed so quickly that they still can't believe it.

However, this did not affect their joy of victory, and they cheered excitedly and rushed to the boy in the middle of the arena, who had previously made them angry but brought them victory!

——————

It is still a Tokiwadai dormitory.

Empty dormitory, after three minutes of silence.

Brush!

Kuroko Shirai is back here again.

There was no struggle on his face, no hesitation, he resolutely walked to Mikoto Misaka's bed, picked up the bear puppet without hesitation, and opened the zipper.

This time, only this time, Kuroko hopes that my sister-sama will forgive me......

Anyway, no matter what, Kuroko wants to be your arm!

Such a thought flashed in her heart, and after Shirai Kuroko unzipped it, she took out the documents inside.

Really......

That sense of touch, something like that......

Kuroko Shirai is engaged in the work of a member of the Discipline Inspection Committee, so he naturally has to come into contact with various documents and reports on weekdays.

As soon as she touched the weak fluff of the bear's butt, she had a feeling that what was placed inside should be something similar.

Without thinking much about it, Kuroko Shirai began to read the information displayed on the document.
