The Puppeteer of Academy City

Chapter 622: Silver. Shiranui

In the early morning of October 13th, at the House of the Academy.

Hitomi Shiranui walked out of the barber shop, looked at the gradually rising sun, stretched her hands up.

The Academy House is a comprehensive area, equivalent to a mini Academy City. In addition to the five aristocratic girls' schools, there are shopping streets, gymnasiums, recreational facilities, bus centers, and even an independently operating power station.

It was one of the barber shops that Shiranui Hitomi stayed all night last night.

Of course, it is said to be a barber shop, but it is actually a studio for private services only for a small number of customers. Without the introduction of acquaintances, it is impossible for outsiders to even know about this place.

In fact, it was Misaki Shokuhou who recommended Hitomi Shiranui to come here...

Yesterday afternoon, after the two agreed on the battle plan, Shokuhou Misaki fiddled with her curly hair and asked, "Is it really worth it to do this for the starry night?"

"certainly."

"But it seems that you haven't made any obvious progress~ It's really worrying~"

"You don't need to meddle in your own business!"

"Don't be so indifferent, I'm kind enough to give you an idea." Shokuhou Misaki said with a smile, "I think Senior Shiranui should try to change his image."

"Huh? Why are you saying this all of a sudden at this time?" Hitomi Shiranui looked at her in surprise.

"Change your mood," Shokuhou Misaki waved his hand, "To be honest, the image of the class leader with black and straight is no longer popular. If you want to attract Xingye's attention, you should at least change your hairstyle!"

"Well, I recommend you a shop that people often go to..." Saying that, Shokuhou Misaki took out a membership card?

Although full of doubts, Hitomi Shiranui finally accepted her recommendation.

As a result, the next day came...

"Forget it, when Xingye is rescued, just treat it as a surprise for him." She said confidently.

Pulling himself together, Hitomi Shiranui stepped forward.

Although it has changed the shape, it doesn't look like much has changed.

All the strands of hair were hidden in the hat on the head, and it was not obvious what new hairstyle had been changed.

As soon as he took a few steps, he saw Fanfeng Junzi approaching, followed by a barrel-shaped robot.

"Good morning, Shiranui-senpai." Junko Fanfeng greeted politely, "I'm sorry, Her Ladyship is resting, so she asked me to see you off."

Hitomi Shiranui nodded. Junko Fanfeng participated in the entire battle meeting yesterday. Although the content of the core "brain meeting" part is not clear, Shokuhou Misaki gave her full responsibility for the specific implementation.

"Good morning, thank you for your hard work."

"You have won the prize." Junzi Fanfeng said, "The action has already begun. Is there anything else you need to prepare?"

"Help me find a car."

"It's ready." Fanfeng Junzi said, "Also, please bring this."

She pointed to the barrel robot beside her.

"This is?"

"Although it looks like a sweeping robot, it is actually a product of the Huberian Robot Development Company. If Master Xingye is not around, it can at least play a certain role as it is also the work of a puppeteer."

Hitomi Shiranui looked at the barrel-shaped robot: "Lucun's thing...is it reliable?"

"Don't worry, Misaka-san hacked its operating system, and now it is completely under your command!"

Hitomi Shiranui popped out a data cable with her fingers and inserted it into the data port on the back of the robot.

Ten seconds later, the barrel-shaped robot suddenly transformed into a two-meter-tall humanoid robot.

"Very good!" Hitomi Shiranui nodded in satisfaction.

When Hitomi Shiranui arrived at the "Quantum Calculus Research Center" in the fifth school district, it was almost ten o'clock.

But the situation in the surrounding streets is even worse. Various accidents and traffic jams have intensified, even affecting the traffic of most of the fifth school district.

I don't know when, a new "urban legend" suddenly became popular on the underground forums of Academy City.

—The only quantum computer “Designer of Tree” in the world that was destroyed before was developed by the “Quantum Calculus Research Center”.

Although the "Tree Diagram Designer" and its core have been destroyed, it is said that its original design drawings and debugging materials are backed up at the research center.

As a result, countless spies and "technology hunters" are ready to move.

Long before Shiranui Hitomi arrived, many people took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the research center, trying to investigate the truth of the rumors.

Hitomi Shiranui lowered the brim of her hat and walked towards the center of the chaos with the barrel robot.

Due to the many accidents, there are also many guard robots at the scene—actually, they are bucket-sweeping robots, so Hitomi Shiranui and her robot mixed in are not inconspicuous at all.

Although the "Quantum Calculus Research Center" is heavily guarded, and there are guards from the "Shadow Troop" comparable to the Hound Troops, it cannot withstand the various riots that suddenly broke out today.

And the spies who sneaked in in the early stage to try to steal the information of the "tree diagram designer" have already involved most of their attention.

Therefore, Hitomi Shiranui's infiltration was almost effortless.

Occasionally, I met one or two men in black, and I was immediately knocked down by the transforming robot.

With the information obtained by Haruka Toyama's investigation, Hitomi Shiranui knows the layout of the rooms here and the arrangements for the patrol personnel like the back of his hand.

The enemy didn't know that their defense had already been seen clearly by the "Prophet", so naturally they would not deliberately make changes.

So Hitomi Shiranui went straight to the basement where Ling Xingye was imprisoned.

"Go through the sixth door, which is the elevator leading to the underground area..."

Suddenly, she paused, then turned around slowly.

At some point behind him, an old man in a white coat appeared.

Through the memories of Haruka Toyama and others, Hitomi Shiranui recognized the identity of the other party at a glance—it was Kihara Chime himself!

"It's finally coming out, I'm worth waiting here for a long time." Kihara Chime said with a smile.

Shiranui Hitomi didn't have much panic on her expression, she didn't expect the combat operation to be smooth sailing from the very beginning.

"Since the little prophet came the day before yesterday, the old man has guessed that this moment will come."

"You knew I was coming?"

"Based on your ability and your relationship with Ling Xingye, it's not difficult to guess that you are the last mastermind of this series of events—'Memory Construction' Hitomi Shiranui." Kihara Chime said confidently, "Sound east and west, drive tigers and wolves away , the little girl's calculations are good, but it's a pity that it's useless in front of the old man."

Every time he said a word, Shiranuo Tong's face became gloomy.

Kihara Chime chuckled: "You must know the old man's real name and ability~lightnovelpub.net~So I'll say it bluntly—if you want to deceive the old man, you are still far behind!"

"Well, if that's the case..." Hitomi Shiranui closed her eyes and sighed heavily, "That can only rely on strength!"

He raised his head again and opened his eyes, a pair of pupils shining like silver.

Raising his hand to take off the peaked cap, a head of hair fell down like a waterfall, starting from the root of the hair, the original black color faded little by little, reflecting a silvery luster under the dim light.

Seeing Kihara Chime's expression of surprise that he couldn't hide, Hitomi Shiranui laughed.

"It seems that at least about my identity - I have indeed successfully deceived you, Kihara Mari!"

Hitomi Shiranui popped out the silk thread with five fingers on her right hand, and connected it to the barrel robot.

The latter changed into a human form with a "click", stood in front of the master, and assumed a fighting posture.

"Legion of the Moon, Baiyin Shiranui, please give me your advice!"
