Chapter 43: The Attack

"Ding Ding~"

The sound of wind chimes rang and the door of the café was pushed open.

Twenty minutes later, Miyata also came to the small café at the school gate, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Genjunsuke sitting on the side.

"I've been waiting for a long time, sorry for the delay."

Miyata said hello with a smile.

"It's okay, the coffee has already been ordered."

Kiyosuke stretched out his hand and motioned for Miyata to sit opposite, and he ordered a double coffee, after all, it was still a long time before it got dark, and he had to find a place to stay before dark.

At this time, there were not many people in the café, and there were no people at the surrounding tables, so the two also exchanged information in a whisper in the café.

"How's it going, did you find anything?"

Miyata asked, picking up a piece of dessert.

"No, nothing has happened since I came out of the classroom."

Seisuke frowned slightly, his eyes and attention had been on the teaching building not far away since he entered the café, but he didn't find anything.

"That's right."

Miyata didn't say anything, just took the terminal out of his pocket and handed it to Kiyosuke.

"Let's see."

Miyata lifted his chin and motioned for Kiyosuke to look at the contents.

Taking Miyata's terminal, Kiyosuke moved his gaze to the screen, which contained some information about the puppet incident.

"This is the analysis and statistics that I just asked the intelligence department to do, and it is more complete than the information on the terminal."

Miyata explained that although there is also information on the terminal, it is not analyzed and counted, but more like a case file.

As he continued to browse through the content on the terminal, Kiyosuke's brow gradually furrowed, and the doll seemed to be a little more troublesome than he thought.

The trouble is not that the mannequin is aggressive, but that it seems to run away, which is the most unusual thing about other weird things.

In the previous rift girl incident, both the mother and the child were like some kind of set killing program, as long as her program was triggered, they would be attacked.

No matter who her opponent is, the Rift Girl will not run away, but will continue to attack until she dies.

In fact, the same is true of most of the monsters, which are less like youkai and more like some kind of programmed program that will go berserk and attack creatures whenever triggered.

The mannequin seems to have the subjective ability to escape, and is more like a youkai than the Rift Girl, but he doesn't seem to be very aggressive.

Of the dozens of mannequin incidents that have occurred in the last two decades, only one student has died, and instead of being killed by the attack, he fell to his death from a building in fright.

It's just that...

The remaining dozens of students did not die, but more than half of them were found the next day as idiots with no ability to think.

Although the remaining students have not become idiots, they have also suffered varying degrees of intellectual impairment, becoming imbeciles-like beings, and can only barely maintain a normal life.

It's like...

"It's like having your soul taken away from you, isn't it?"

Miyata said with a smile, he had already read the information on the way here.

"It's also the first time I've encountered a mannequin incident, and I was also taken aback when I read the information just now, and if you continue to look down, his ability is even weirder."

Taking a sip of coffee, Kiyosuke lowered his head and continued to look at the information.

Of the more than 30 incidents that have occurred in the past, only three of the mannequins were hunted down by the team, and in other incidents, when the team members rushed to the scene to investigate, there was no trace of the mannequins.

Although the mannequin was judged to be Class E in terms of injury, there were casualties in a limited number of three incidents.

In the first incident, the team member in charge of the investigation was a D-class Onmyoji, and was attacked by a mannequin during the investigation.

According to the dossier, the team member did not find anything wrong in the classroom during the investigation, but only had a strange sense of awkwardness.

"Awkwardness?"

Kiyosuke frowned, the same as he felt, it didn't seem to be an accident.

Continuing to look down, when the team member was inspecting the model, he was attacked from behind, and the one who attacked him was a model that had already been inspected without problems.

The mannequin's damage is not high, but it has a strange ability to actively model the creatures it comes into contact with, that is, to turn the contact into a plastic model, and it will slowly spread.

Although the team member sensed something was wrong at the last moment before being attacked, he was hit in his right hand, and the plasticization of the palm spread to 1/2 of the arm in less than a minute.

After he cut off his right hand, he stopped plasticizing, and if he was not decisive enough, I am afraid that the whole person would become a new humanoid plastic model.

In the next two incidents, members of the other teams learned their lesson and did not come into direct contact with the mannequin, but in one case the mannequin escaped.

Because the organs of the mannequin can be taken out of the body, it will not die without completely erasing all its parts.

And the time he escaped was because the last kidney was not found in time and was snatched away by a mysterious person, and the identity of the mysterious person has not been found yet.

"Mystery Man... Is it? ”

Kiyosuke muttered unconsciously.

Before going upstairs with the class leader, he also seemed to see a figure, he thought it was a teacher, but now it seems that things are getting more and more complicated.

"How's that, do you have any clue?"

Miyata asked curiously, and after reading the file, Kiyosuke seemed to have some clues.

"Regarding this mysterious person, I also seem to have seen a figure before I went upstairs."

Kiyosuke explained.

"The last biology class of the day was for our class, and no one should be going there again after school."

"Mystery man?"

Miyata also frowned, anyone who saw the file would be interested in this mysterious person, after all, no one knew what his purpose was in taking the model's internal organs.

If it's because he's able to control the model...

The two looked at each other and tacitly stopped the discussion of this topic, and Kiyosuke also returned the terminal to him.

Looking at the time, it was only five o'clock in the evening, and it was dark until at least after seven o'clock in the evening.

However, after discussing it, the two decided to enter the school after eleven o'clock tonight, and the school workers were also resting at this time, as long as the enchantment was laid out in advance, the impact could be minimized.

Seisuke doesn't want to change the entire school building beyond recognition tomorrow, and it will be troublesome even if someone comes to finish it.

So now...

"You haven't had dinner yet, have you?"

"Not yet..."

The two looked at each other, and Miyata smiled.

"Let's go, I'm in for a treat."

Then the two walked out of the café together, and before getting into the car, Kiyosuke took one last look at the biology classroom not far away, and it seemed that nothing had changed since he left.
