The Puppeteer of Academy City

Chapter 213: keep her (him) from knowing

When Ling Xingye and Hitomi Shiranui were going downstairs, they also met Touma Kamijou, a neighbor who ran out in a hurry. He didn't know what was urgent, and he couldn't even wait for the elevator, so he ran down the emergency stairs directly.

And the speed is even faster than Ling Xingye and the others taking the elevator!

Kamijou Touma, who left in the dust, didn't notice the two behind him at all, and Ling Xingye didn't even have a chance to say hello.

"Should you be late for tuition again?" Ling Xingye said.

"But Tsuchimikado Motoharu didn't show up, didn't they make up lessons together?" Hitomi Shiranui looked back at the stairs behind her.

The two said goodbye at the nearest station downstairs from the apartment building, and went to their planned destinations.

Watching Shiranui Hitomi get into the car and leave, the expression on Ling Xingye's face gradually became serious.

After all, Ling Xingye was just indifferent, not stupid. Just now I didn't know what kind of emotional meaning was contained in Huotong's almost expressive actions and words, Ling Xingye certainly knew it well.

But he still fooled it with a haha, and didn't directly respond to the girl's feelings.

Because Ling Xingye was also confused in his heart, not only because the two people were too familiar with each other, which caused the subtle sense of distance now.

What's more, it's Ling Xingye's own problem.

—his memory had nearly a two-week gap. At the end of last month, it seemed that due to being involved in an accident, Ling Xingye's head was hit by "magic", which led to amnesia.

However, with the help of Hitomi Shiranui's backup, Ling Xingye quickly regained his memory—only the last two weeks were vacant.

Because he and Hitomi Shiranui only back up their respective memories every two weeks.

That memory was pieced together by Ling Xingye from several other related parties, coupled with the reasonable deduction of previous memories, so no flaws have been revealed.

But Ling Xingye knew very well that his memory was still missing a piece after all.

Human beings are a kind of forgetful animals. In many cases, only by forgetting people can we continue to live better.

So only two weeks of vague memory, in fact, is not a big deal.

You know, Ling Xingye's unlucky neighbor has completely lost his memory! Don't you have a good time with the nun lady every day?

But the problem is that after the incident that Ling Xingye "can't remember" at all, Shiranuotong's attitude has changed.

Instead of being content with the status quo, she became more and more proactive.

It's not that Ling Xingye doesn't like such a change, but he also has to think about it—did something happen during the two weeks when he lost his memory, which led to a breakthrough in the relationship between the two?

You can't ask Shiranui Tong directly about this kind of thing, so Ling Xingye has been very troubled.

In addition, and the most crucial point—Ling Xingye found that when facing Hitomi Shiranui, he was far from feeling "in love" as in the legend.

In contrast, when he saw Yuan Shanyao and Misaka 10001 who were in danger, Ling Xingye's heart throbbed even more.

"Sure enough, there must be something wrong with me?" Ling Xingye rubbed his head and said to himself, "Isn't it because the brain was injured last time, which damaged the area in charge of emotion?"

So Ling Xingye insisted on acting alone today. In addition to the scheduled supplementary equipment and materials for the performance, he also planned to go to the hospital to check his brain again.

It's best not to let Hitomi Shiranui know about this kind of thing.

"It's better not to let Xingye know about this kind of thing." Hitomi Shiranui murmured.

In today's itinerary, she actually concealed something.

Although it was said that he was going to help the student council, that was by no means the main purpose.

Hitomi Shiranui is not a member of the student union, she is often called to help because of her outstanding ability. Over time, after one semester, almost everyone acquiesced that Hitomi Shiranui was the main member of the student union.

But she is not after all, so there will not be too many things that need her help. Especially now that it is during the summer vacation, the school has basically stopped operating, and the accumulated work can be done in less than one morning.

As for the rest of the day, Hitomi Shiranui has other arrangements.

She made a special appointment with someone—the "Queen" from Tokiwadai Middle School, and Shokuhou Misaki from "Psychological Mastery".

People who know her have only two attitudes toward this woman—almost everyone is a fanatical fan of this "queen bee" and has a natural affection for her ax; or they are like those who can "see" her essence and understand "psychological People who grasp the true meaning of this ability may not be able to say that everyone hates her, but they are definitely full of vigilance and vigilance, and will never approach her easily if nothing happens.

After all, it's "mental mastery." It can spy on people's hearts, and even control the will and actions of others!

In a sense, this is the real "strongest ability"!

In Shokuhou Misaki's eyes, among these two types of people, the former is his follower or subordinate. The latter is completely irrelevant to her, not worth mentioning.

Of course, there are also a few special existences, neither her subordinates and followers, nor passers-by who have nothing to do with her.

It was her Shokuhou Misaki's opponent...or rather—friend.

Don't be afraid of your own ability, be able to maintain your own attitude, not blindly flatter or reject yourself...

That is a special existence that can truly be treated "equally".

But such existence is actually rare.

Misaka Mikoto, another psychic from the same school, was one, and Shokuhou Misaki's ability couldn't break through her lightning defense.

As for the other one, it's Hitomi Shiranui, a senior senior from Shangji Academy.

Shiranui Hitomi is the strongest memory-type user besides her Shokuhou Misaki~lightnovelpub.net~ So the two are often compared.

To a certain extent, Hitomi Shiranui can also resist the control of Shokuhou Misaki, and even take some countermeasures. So the relationship between the two is also very tense.

Because the exchanges between the two schools are relatively close, and because they are all girls, Shokuhou Misaki and Shiranui Hitomi often have the opportunity to meet.

The "confrontation" between the two of them has long been an open secret.

Neither side has ever denied it.

Shokuhou Misaki and Shiranui Hitomi are both very good and proud girls, of course it is impossible to admit defeat at will.

So now, at most, the two of them avoid meeting each other.

However, the two, who should have tried their best to avoid the "king vs. king" situation, met for lunch today.

The meeting place is the school house, and Shiranui Hitomi can also enter it at the invitation of Shokuhou Misaki.
