"Ladies and gentlemen, I have informed you that Laura Stewart's visit to the school city cannot be changed, whether for or against it. This is the consensus reached by the highest authorities on both sides,Violators will be immediately expelled from the school city,Included in the school city blacklist for the rest of your life! ”

At the head of the conference table, Aresta was dressed in a surgical gown that was very different from the suit. And what he said also made Misaka and Saten, who had just come in, hear it in a fog.

Seeing that things were inevitable, Shio'an, who was in charge of weapons and quarters, was overjoyed, and immediately suggested: "That world is not known to ordinary people, and the Supreme Bishop of the Zero Holy Parish has rashly visited, I am afraid that the balance between the two worlds will be upset, do you take measures in advance?" ”

Arms can shine brilliantly only in the light of the flames of war! And the war after the balance is broken is exactly what the tide bank desires!

Aresta waved her hand and said, "No, things haven't gotten bad enough yet." Science and magic have been at peace for 100 years, and the balance is fragile, but it won't be able to withstand even the slightest shock! ”

Seeing that Arestas even rejected his proposal, the tide bank's face was a little unnatural. Helplessly, although Aresta has been dormant in the headquarters building all the year round and has never appeared, the power is still there, and the tide bank does not dare to refute anymore, so he has to retreat.

How could Aresta not see through the careful thinking of the tide shore? But Aresta is no longer the magician Edward Alexander of decades ago. Now his eyes encompass the whole world, power, ambition, and intrigue are only passing in his eyes, and they can't stir up the slightest ripple.

Then his gaze turned to Saten and Misaka, and said, "Saten tears, you are a spy of the Puritans, and the matter of stealing information about the school city by disguising yourself as a student has been exposed, and the relationship between Laura Stewart's upcoming visit will not hold you accountable." And because of my deal with that person, you can continue to stay in the school city as the eighth superpower! ”

"Mikoto Misaka,You're a friend of Saten's tears.,And one of the seven superpowers in my school city.,During Laura Stewart's visit,,You'll represent our school city.,Lead Laura Stewart to visit.。

"Do you two disagree with my decision?"

Although he didn't know what Aresta was talking about, it was obvious that he was hiding the fact that he was hiding his superpowers for Saten, and Mikoto Misaka and Saten glanced at each other, and both saw the answer in the other person's eyes.

"We have no objections!"

Hearing this, Aresta nodded and continued: "There are not only superpowers that represent science in this world. Outside of the school city, in places that ordinary people can't reach, the United Kingdom, India, Russia, the United States, Japan, ...... In every country where the flag flies, there is a power called magic, and those who use them are called magicians. I think everyone here knows this more or less! ”

"And one of the representatives of the magical forces,Laura Stewart's Puritanism,Headquartered in England, where there are 'three factions and four cultures',Its overall strength is comparable to that of the school city."

As he spoke, Aresta glanced at all the councilors in the field and ordered: "Therefore, for Bishop Laura's coming this time, in order to avoid being used by other forces to provoke and cause a war between the two sides, the school city must do a good job of sufficient security to ensure the absolute safety of the visitors this time!" ”

"And you ......," he looked at Zuo Tian and the two again, "It's the key to this contact between magic and technology!" I give you the right to dispatch guards and discipline inspection officers at any time without reporting and auditing! ”

………

The sun was still in the sky when I entered the headquarters of the General Control Council, and the moon had already risen when I came out. Mikoto Misaka looked up at the deep and vast starry sky, but her thoughts were as chaotic as a pool of troubled water.

The same is true of Saten's mood!

Originally, with the intention of breaking the net, Saten had already sharpened his knife, and the killing intent was surging, and Mikoto Misaka also mobilized all her strength and prepared to attack a way out.

But who would have thought that not only were they not questioned and attacked, but they were set up with two inexplicable identities, which made their heads not turn around until now!

"Now, Zuotian, I have a proposal, should we go to a place to verify it!" Mikoto Misaka shook her head and said to Saten behind her.

"Coincidentally, that's what I'm thinking, where are you going?" Saten asked rhetorically.

"Where do you want to go?"

"Let's talk about it?" Saten proposed.

"Let's talk about it!" Misaka agreed.

Then, the two glanced at each other and said in unison: "Settle down!" ”

……

At night, the Anding area is still lit up, but it is not open. Visitors to Anding knew about it, so despite the lights, none of the pedestrians pushed the door open during this time period.

Tonight the stars were shining, Qin Shao was holding a book and sitting at the table next to the floor-to-ceiling window, and the bright colorful lights on both sides of the shopping street at night were reflected on the smooth glass, revealing a dazzling and gorgeous scene.

The hustle and bustle is separated by this layer of glass.

When Mikoto Misaka and Saten came together, the hour hand of the old-fashioned clock hanging on the wall was already pointing to eight, and the minute hand was also pointing to three.

Night, eight fifteen.

The knock on the door broke the silence in the house, and every person who did not come home at night was a loner in the carnival, who used happiness to cover up sadness and wrote loneliness with night.

Saten had had her grief, and Mikoto Misaka had covered her pain with a smile, but tonight, they both had other emotions.

"Boss, did you arrange all this?"

Everything was too big, but Qin Shao knew what Zuo Tian was referring to, looked up at Zuo Tian standing in front of him, and said in a flat tone: "You are from Anding District, and I have the responsibility to let you live in the way you expect." ”

Seeing Qin Shao's admission, Mikoto Misaka asked with some concern: "Chairman Aresta said that he made a deal with a person. I guess that person should be you, what is the content of that transaction? ”

Trading is two-sided, what you want to get, you have to give. Zuo Tian is also her friend, but the difficulties encountered by her friend are borne by Qin Shao alone, which makes her worry about Qin Shao while not being careful.

"I don't stand in the way of his plans, he guarantees your safety and freedom in the school city. Aresta can give up anyone to achieve his goals, but he has the advantage that he will never act lightly without a thorough plan. There aren't many ways in this world to completely destroy me, and he's afraid he's going to think about it for a long, long time! ”

Qin Shao threw the book on the table, a little excited: "The truth of the world is the convergence of all laws, how difficult is it to pocket it?" SYSTEM alone,It's stopped the footsteps of this school city for decades.。 Aresta saw the difficulties many years ago and decided to take the risk, risking her life and reputation. Compared to him, who else is awake in this bustling and noisy night world? ”

"SYSTEM, where do you think you've heard of it?" Mikoto Misaka muttered.

"With a non-god body, reach the realm of gods, level 6, that is, the absolute ability."

"Absolute power!"

Mikoto Misaka has heard the legend of the Absolute Ability, not only her, but everyone who has reached the superpower, all know the title of "Absolute Ability", because this name represents their next step!

"It'...... Does it really exist? ”

"It's there, from the birth of the world to the present, never near, never far away. It's just that no one in the world has been able to pluck it from the tree. The future is still unknown. ”

"No...... It's not all unknown, when I get back to the school, I'm sure I'll be scolded by the warden! Mikoto Misaka looked at the phone screen and let out a sad cry.

There was a message on the phone, and the message was only seven words: Don't come in the housemaster's rage!

Signature, Kuroko!

"A twenty-nine-year-old single young woman, it's right to have a little temper, but you don't have to worry about it this time, Yunchuan Qinya will be busy with her business and then explain it for you." Qin Shao pointed out.

After hearing Qin Shao's words, Mikoto Misaka immediately praised: "She is such a good person!" ”

"No...... She just wants to know what secrets are hidden in you! Qin Shao denied.

"She's such a bad person!" Mikoto Misaka immediately changed her words.

"By the way, she's still the senior sister you chased all night." Qin Shao reminded.

"If I meet again, I'll kill her!" After a pause, Mikoto Misaka added another sentence at the end of the previous sentence.

"It's not good for a little girl to fight and kill, kill people and set fires or something, you can't do it until you're older." Qin Shao didn't teach a lesson, but said instigatingly.

"I can't do it when I'm too old!!"

Zuo Tian was a little speechless when she listened to it, she was still very moved, but now there is only a black line left on her forehead.

"The owner's insight... It's unique! Mikoto Misaka's eyebrows twitched a few times, and then continued: "Well, since the matter has been settled perfectly, then it is time for us to leave. Although there are still many doubts, there will be opportunities in the future. ”

Qin Shao didn't care, and said in an unquestionable tone: "There are still a few vacant rooms in Anding District, and now it's getting late, so you can stay." Misaka, the bathroom is on the corner of the second floor, Satian, the kitchen is in the back, and it just so happens that I didn't eat either, ready for three people. ”

"Hey, have you asked for other people's opinions, and you made arrangements for them without authorization!" Mikoto Misaka couldn't help but complain loudly.

Zuo Tian responded as if he was possessed in early spring, and responded very well-behaved: "Okay, boss!" ”

A few kilometers away, in dormitory No. 208 of the Tokiwadai Outer School Building, Shirai was lying sideways on Mikoto Misaka's bed, rubbing Mikoto Misaka's killer bear puppet with his body frantically. After a seizure-like move, he lay on the bed in a "big" shape and whispered, "I don't reply to emails, sister, what are you doing?" ”

Mikoto Misaka was humming a song in the bathroom, and suddenly felt a chill down her spine for no reason, and she couldn't help but shiver.
