Chapter 296: A Changing World
On the dim sea level, a golden morning light appeared, like the first light born from the beginning of heaven and earth, turned into a giant sword, and suddenly split the night from the place where the sea and the sky meet!
Then, the fiery red morning sun leaped out of the sea, and billions of debris spread from the distant sky, covering the entire ocean in an instant!
As the morning descends on the earth, everything comes back to life, and flocks of seabirds emerge from distant islands and fly deeper into the sea, where there is life-sustaining food and a vast blue sky where they can fly freely. On the beach, residents who wake up early for morning exercise and tourists who enjoy the sunrise over the sea form a group of twos and threes, reminiscing about the past, telling the present, and fantasizing about the future.
But they didn't realize that themselves, and the companions in front of them, were no longer what they were!
The worldwide phenomenon caused by the 'Angel Fall' technique, the role reversal, unknowingly distorts the whole world!
It's just that they don't realize that they are in a distorted world...... I can't find out!
"Because the world is distorted with them, the world is still the same world in their eyes. And what is not distorted, or what is distorted in their eyes, is not them, not the world, but us! β
In the Poseidon Hotel, Misaka looked at the proprietress of the Poseidon Hotel, who had changed from yesterday's passer-by armor to Misaka Mei with military goggles, and her face was sluggish. And beside her, Saten, Shirai, and Hatsuharu, who are also in a state of confusion, are also looking for a replacement object that they are familiar with.
As if under the pull of magic, there is a high chance that the body of a stranger will be replaced with the body of someone they are familiar with, around people who are not affected by the 'Angel Fall' technique.
For example, in the original book, around Uejo Danma, Mikoto Misaka replaces Ryujin Otohime, blue-haired earrings replace Intix, and Misaka Mei replaces the proprietress instead. Even the existence of soy sauce, such as the driver girl who was replaced by Himejin Qiusha, the reporter who was replaced by Yueyong Xiaomeng, and the president who was replaced by Shirai Kuroko, are mostly people he knows!
And now, because the number of unaffected people has increased from one to five, there is a rather strange scene in the eyes of Qin Shao, Misaka and others in the Poseidon Hotel and nearby towns: in the school city, those who have left some images in their memories have all run to this seaside town!
The teacher became a white-collar worker, and the classmates copied the guys and did all kinds of jobs such as delivering newspapers, selling breakfast, repairing household appliances, and picking locks on sliding doors. Even the 10,000 Misaka girls appeared in groups in the town and became elementary school students with a height of 161 and a weight of 45 kilograms!
Faced with such a picture, Qin Shao's brain couldn't help but feel confused while explaining 'why the replaced person didn't notice the change in himself'!
I thought I came out of the school city.,I didn't expect the result to be back to square one!
After a long silence, I watched Misaka Mei pick her nostrils in a daze, and Mikoto Misaka suddenly broke out with a black line on her face: "Ah! It's disgusting, it's really disgusting! I can't stand it anymore, I'm going to get out of here, and if I don't want to kill her, it's okay! β
Glancing at Misaka, who was in a state of rage, Hatsuharu looked at Saten beside him, and said worriedly, "No problem, Misaka-san?" β
"No problem, no problem!"
Zuo Tian waved his hand indifferently at this. Having experienced the 'Absolute Ability Incident', she believes that as long as she looks like Misaka and no matter how shameful she makes, Misaka-san will not really be a killer. As for the state of Misaka, there is no need to worry!
She even accepted her sudden extra 10,000 sisters, what else in the world could she not accept?
"Anyway, since we all come to the beach, why don't we enjoy a little game by the sea? You see, I've even got a watermelon ready! Zuo Tian took out a large watermelon from behind him and put it in Chu Chun's eyes, and then regardless of Chu Chun's agreement, he dragged her clothes and walked towards the beach.
Looking at Zuotian's back as he drifted away, Shirai smiled stiffly and said, "To a certain extent, Zuotian's ability to accept new things is admirable!" β
Not long after Zuo Tian left, Qin Shao left the Poseidon Hotel with Misaka and Shirai, who had recovered from the berserk state, and came to the seaside town.
Although it was occupied by the people of Misaka Mei and School City everywhere in sight, it did not affect the normal life of the residents of the town. The early risers greeted each other with different bodies from their bodies, and then opened the doors of their respective shops to start their day's work with the products they were proud of.
Appearing a little later on the streets of the town are the early trainees, most of whom are members of sports clubs who need to exercise and hone their skills every morning.
Then there are office workers and active students from non-sports clubs, who are the main body of the town, and with their appearance, the town is really 'alive' and exudes vigor and vitality.
Qin Shao and the three of them came here after the town 'lived', and they happened to have a close contact with the flow of people at the peak. Those who go to school and go to work, although the noisy streets are not bustling and crowded, but they are also in groups, with a distance of four or five meters from the front and back, left and right.
"Sister, so many sisters! Is this paradise? If so, Kuroko would rather die right away and join them! Shirai looked at the crowd with a happy expression with round eyes, and he didn't even notice the whiteness of the ten fingers on the back of his hand.
Misaka screamed and covered his eyes with his left hand: "No, this is hell...... Absolute hell! β
Walking into a snack bar, the waiter who entertained the guests was actually holding up the body of Mai Ye, and the person cleaning up the table on the side was even more jaw-dropping, and it was a pass!
Finding a place to sit down and ordering a few special snacks, Qin Shao tasted the flavor of the coast while looking out the window, searching for the figure of the Divine Cracked Fire Weave with his eyes.
Earlier, the Divine Cracked Fire Weave had sent a message that it was Qin Shao who came to this town to meet on this street. Of course, Qin Shao admits that he also has a feeling of 'see what kind of scenery the school city version of the seaside town will be'. After getting along with a gentle person for a long time, it is natural to occasionally want to see what that person looks like when he changes his personality.
"Huh? When is the upper strip hemp? β
But after waiting for a long time, the god cracked fire weaving didn't see it, but saw Kamijo Dangma running out of the window in a panic.
At this point in time, appearing in this town, and still looking panicked, it seems that he has noticed that the role has changed. The next scene is to meet Misha Chloeve, God Crack Fire Weaving, and Tsuchiomon Motoharu. β
Thinking of this, Qin Shao glanced at Shirai, who was in a delusional state with noodles in front of him, and Misaka, who was passing on the "flirting" side, coughed dryly, and said, "Shirai, it's time to wake up." Misaka, don't play either! It's not the same thing to wait like this, let's take the initiative to find the God Crack Fire Weaving! β
The delusion was broken, and Bai Jing glared at Qin Shao dissatisfiedly, but he didn't refute it. Misaka was a little unsatisfied and reluctant to leave, but finally stood up and walked out of the snack bar almost like 'one step and three turns'.
At this time, Kamijo Danma had indeed noticed the abnormality around him, and ran wildly through the streets of the seaside town. When I woke up, the world had changed dramatically, and most importantly, no one seemed to notice the change except myself!
"Is it me, or the world?!"
Uejo Danma questioned himself in his heart over and over again. There was no reason why he couldn't run wild, and in this distorted world, he didn't know who was wrong. He could only run wildly, hoping for a familiar world ahead.
Just as he ran from the main road of the town to a few pedestrians to the top of the back mountain, healed by the beautiful scenery of nature and meditated on the step path, a foreign girl in a strange costume appeared out of the corner of his eye, standing in front of the railing with a blank face.
With the experience he had gained in the past, he quickly defined the girl who was wearing a restraint cloak, a torture instrument pinned to her waist, and a collar around her neck, and a rein on the collar - acquaintance!
He stopped, turned around and said hello, and was greeted by a saw that emitted a cold light!
How close the saw was to his neck was unknown, for his eyes could not see the place. And where you can see it, there is already a saw.
"Unfortunate~!"
He wanted to shout this sentence in the form of a shout in the sky, but the unknown distance saw made him give up this plan: the peristalsis of the Adam's apple when he spoke might make negative contact with the sawtooth, and from the rule of 'Kamijo-san is unlucky', the probability of this happening will fluctuate in the range of 90%!
"Unfortunate~"
But someone helped him say the mantra - Mikoto Misaka with an expression of 'I know, I know, you don't have to thank me'!
Taking advantage of the opportunity of the sawing woman to turn her head, she jumped backwards, and finally got out of the range of '90 percent'. Then he looked at the place where the familiar voice came from, the familiar figure, the familiar expression appeared in his eyes, and the tears almost didn't fall: "Discharge girl...... No, Misaka-samaγAre you Misaka-sama? Are you really Mikoto-sama Misaka?! β
"Isn't it a kind of touching to meet old acquaintances in a foreign land?"
Qin Shao walked out from the corner of the steps below, followed by the drooling Bai Jing - she had met countless sisters along the way, and she was already deep in delusion and couldn't extricate herself!
