The Puppeteer of Academy City

Chapter 376: Mizuho Function Research Institute

Ling Xingye followed a tracking cube he had set up earlier, and came to a building at the junction of the seventh and fifth school districts.

"Shuisui Function Research Institute" - Ling Xingye looked up at the sign on the roof of this skyscraper.

In Academy City, this should be considered a relatively large-scale research institute. Apart from the thirty-story skyscraper used as a facade, there is also a factory area only twenty meters high behind it, occupying almost the entire block.

Perhaps because this area is full of high-tech enterprises, and it is during working hours, there is no passerby nearby, and it seems very quiet.

This caused some trouble for Ling Xingye's infiltration. He had to carefully avoid the surveillance cameras on the road and approach the institute quietly.

"According to the location, Tong should be on the top floor..." Ling Xingye looked up at the roof again, "but now it's suddenly moving down."

Judging by the speed, it seems to be taking a fast elevator.

This is a bit abnormal. Because Ling Xingye already knew that Shiranuo Tong was kidnapped. In this case, shouldn't she be locked up in a fixed place? How do you move around?

Ling Xingye wondered if he had found the wrong target, and it wasn't Hitomi Shiranui who was possessed by this tracking cube.

But it's already here, so you have to go in to confirm it.

At the corner of the wall at the door, Ling Xingye took the ghost out of the bag.

Then the two figures turned into black lightning and rushed into the gate of the research institute.

There was no one in the lobby on the ground floor, and even the reception desk was empty.

Ling Xingye frowned, he noticed that the cup of coffee on the reception desk was still steaming, obviously someone was here not long ago.

Did you go to the bathroom? Or was he temporarily discovered, so he temporarily evacuated?

Just as Ling Xingye was thinking of this, the entrance behind him suddenly dropped the isolation door, and the lights in the hall suddenly dimmed a lot, only a few emergency lights were still shining.

"Tsk, it really was discovered..." Ling Xingye said in surprise, "It seems that there is indeed a problem here."

The institute's overreaction made Ling Xingye happy instead.

Since they regard themselves as enemies, it is very likely that they are the ones who kidnapped Hitomi.

The movement of the tracking cube is also likely to be that they are transferring Hitomi Shiranui!

"I hope it won't be because there are too many Kiharas..." Ling Xingye muttered, "Really, if I knew it, I wouldn't have placed cubes on that guy yesterday..."

Except for the base of the Second Flower Corps, only Kihara can have a research institute of this scale.

The research institute—the enemy of Ling Xingye now—just blocked the exit. But the same upstairs stairs are still open.

Ling Xingye didn't think too much, and ran directly to the emergency passage on the left.

Outside the institute, Hua Qishier, who was in charge of following Ling Xingye, was reporting to the leader Hua Ershi.

"The location is confirmed, it's the Sui Sui Institute of Functional Research... Yes, Ling Xingye has indeed entered it, it is very likely that it is here. There are no other sisters nearby, so I will follow up to check the situation first...Understand, I will pay attention, please rest assured."

After all, she cut off the communication and rushed into the main entrance of the research institute as fast as lightning.

But after entering, Hua Seventy-two immediately realized that something was wrong—the scene in front of her was obviously not the reception hall of a normal enterprise organization.

It was an empty room, and there were only two passages leading to the depths of the research institute before her eyes.

With a bang, the entrance behind him was completely sealed by the heavy explosion-proof door.

At the same time, external communications were also disturbed, and Hua Qishier found that she could no longer contact the leader and other sisters.

"It's not accidental, it seems that it has been discovered since Ling Xingye?"

Hua Qishier analyzed the current situation. She didn't know which path Ling Xingye chose, and even the scenes they saw might be different.

This is the home field of the enemy! Hua Seventy-two is no stranger to this kind of building full of organs, so he knows that he can't stay in one place for too long at this time.

You must move, take the initiative to attack, and find the controller behind the scenes!

So she randomly chose the channel on the right.

But as soon as he rushed into the passage, before he ran a few steps, Hua Qishi felt that his feet were empty, and he just fell down like this.

Her heart tightened, she didn't expect to encounter a trap so soon.

In order to keep a low profile, and her strength in the Hua Legion is not too outstanding, so now Hua Qishi has less than 300 "petals" around her, not even a complete puppet.

She can only use these petals to support her body and avoid the falling trap.

However, the ceiling above his head suddenly collapsed, and without giving the slightest chance, it smashed Hua Qishier's body down!

Hua Qishier disappeared into the seemingly endless pit.

The channel is then restored to its original state. As if nothing had happened.

As Hua Qishier speculated, this research institute has now become a huge trap with dense organs.

At this time, Ling Xingye, who had already reached the third floor, also realized this.

Along the way, there was no one in the huge research institute, and the corridors were reinforced with armor, and not even a single room could be seen on either side—obviously, it had switched to an enemy mode.

But Ling Xingye ignored this, he just ran towards the location of the tracking cube.

The enemy didn't completely block the passage, and Ling Xingye successfully found the stairs leading to the fourth floor.

The moment he stepped up the stairs, the dim emergency lights went out.

The stairwell was plunged into darkness for a moment.

Attacks follow!

The strong sense of crisis stimulated Ling Xingye's nerves, causing his body to respond instinctively.

Sprites charge forward, engaging in short but furious battles with the foe in the dark.

At the same time, Ling Xingye felt a slight change in the airflow behind him—there was more than one enemy!

Before he had time to think about it, he stretched out the five fingers of his left hand, and five "flying blades" slashed out in different directions around him.

Now that Ling Xingye is using this move, it already has the flavor of Kanzaki Kaori's "Seven Flashes".

There were uncontrollable groans of pain from the left and right, and a strong smell of blood wafted from the air.

Ling Xingye knew the enemy hit by that blow just now.

But only the enemy behind him escaped the sudden personal slash!

Ling Xingye threw himself forward, but was still stabbed heavily in the back.

Before he had time to feel the pain of the wound, Ling Xingye's eyes lit up—the enemy detonated a flash bomb!

The retina is strongly stimulated ~lightnovelpub.net~ If it is an ordinary person, I am afraid that it will be temporarily or even permanently blind.

Even Ling Xingye, who bears the blood of silver, can't see anything clearly for a short time.

Ling Xingye's heart was full of alarm bells, and he rolled away on the ground regardless of his image.

A sharp blade stabbed hard into the floor, right where Ling Xingye's throat was just now!

It turns out that there are enemies above the head!

Ling Xingye suddenly realized that this kind of fierce attack, wave after wave like a frenzy, seemed familiar.

—The Hound Assassin I met yesterday!

This is the place where there are many Kiharas!

"Sure enough, I found the wrong one!" Ling Xingye said depressedly in his heart, "However, there are so many Kiharas who won't let me leave easily."
