The Puppeteer of Academy City

Chapter 788: emergency meeting

From Kamijou Touma's point of view, if he didn't encounter any monsters or monsters, it would be considered "smooth".

Ling Xingye can only express his admiration for his open-mindedness and optimism.

Because of the lost wallet, Kamijou Touma and Index didn't even eat dinner, and only had an airline meal on the plane at noon.

"Because of a traffic accident on the way back—although we were not the ones involved, the road was blocked for two hours!" Kamijou Touma's difficult journey home continued, "When I found the bank, they had already It's closed after work...Mr. Kamijou, who has no money for a ride, can only walk all the way back."

Because the wallet was lost, along with the student ID card, Kamijou Touma couldn't even use the ATM. Only the manual service at the bank counter can be used to verify the information through the chip implanted under the skin and withdraw money.

There is really nothing you can do when the bank is closed after get off work. Moreover, his mobile phone was shut down, and he couldn't ask his classmates and friends to pick them up.

Walking all the way, even with Touma's physical strength and endurance, I also feel tired and hungry.

"I'm convinced..." Ling Xingye walked into the kitchen speechlessly, and after a while, two buckets of instant noodles came out, "I only have these here, so let's make it for now."

"Ah, thank you! I won't be polite!" Kamijou Touma took the instant noodles with bright eyes, and said very movedly, "Xingye, you really are my lucky angel!"

"Don't talk about that for now," Ling Xingye pushed another bucket of instant noodles, "Don't you ask your lady to eat some together? She's been hungry for a long time, right?"

"Let her rest for a while." Kamijou Touma shook his head, "After reading those original magic books, Index has been so lethargic."

"Are you okay?" Ling Xingye asked with concern.

"Lola said that she needs a period of time to digest and absorb new knowledge, which is normal - it will be fine in two days." Kamijou Touma said.

This is not the unilateral statement of the Supreme Bishop Lola; Kanzaki Kaori, Stiyl, and even Index herself have given the same explanation, so Kamijou Touma has no doubts.

In the end, Kamijou Touma ate the other bucket of instant noodles, and packed away the last two unopened buckets of noodles from Ling Xingye's house, in order to prevent Index from suddenly returning to normal and turning into a demon of appetite.

Sending Kamijou Touma away, Ling Xingye tidied up the table and used it as a workbench to continue repairing the puppets.

"Old man, in the end you are the most reliable." Ling Xingye patted the monster and sighed.

Since returning to Academy City after World War Three, Ling Xingye has never seen Harlequin again.

Ling Xingye didn't try to find it, because he knew that the clown was essentially controlled by "Ling Qianji".

Although Ling Qianji was theoretically alone with him, he was also the last person he wanted to see.

In fact, if possible, he wished that Ling Qianji would stay as far away as possible. If you can have nothing to do with yourself, it will be a perfect ending to completely become two people.

Now, since Ling Qianji is willing not to bother him, Ling Xingye naturally doesn't mind if he takes the clown away.

As for the puppet "substitute", due to the serious damage in the last battle, it is still undergoing repairs in related research institutes.

The "stand-in" is a highly simulated robot, and the silk puppet is the product of two technical routes, so Ling Xingye will not repair it.

The restoration work continued until midnight, and Ling Xingye stopped to prepare for a rest.

According to the progress, it will take quite a while to completely repair the sprites and improve their combat effectiveness.

Since the automatic puppets in Academy City have disappeared, and the "Book Contest" has also stopped, Ling Xingye does not urgently need puppets to fight.

So instead of rushing to fix the Sprite, he's patiently waiting for custom parts and armor to give it a big boost...

"...Tell my sister earlier about this kind of thing." Lu Xuyang said loudly on the phone screen, "Whether it's puppet parts, materials or complete puppets, I can help you get them! Of course, they can't compare with the works of puppeteers. , but definitely not worse than sprites."

In physical education class, Ling Xingye skipped the swimming pool class and hid on the edge of the playground to video chat with her sister Lu Xuyang who was far away in South America.

"Yeah, there is another way!" Ling Xingye showed an expression of enlightenment. He didn't know the relationship between Ling's class and "Baiyin" before, so he never thought that he could ask his family to prepare for the battle.

Today's mind-set has been formed to ignore this possibility.

Now that I think about it, even if I don't ask my family for help, if I report it directly to the headquarters of the "Silver" organization, the problem of a mere puppet can definitely be solved quickly!

After all, Ling Xingye is now also a puppet master who can be named "Baiyin"; no matter what, it is impossible for the Baiyin headquarters to let him fight with bare hands.

Helplessly, the headquarters of the "Silver" organization felt that Ling Xingye would definitely be able to obtain technology and materials no less than those of the headquarters in Academy City, so they did not need the support of the headquarters. Coupled with the newly obtained puppet "Harlequin", there is no need for other puppets that are not as good as it.

As a result, it was delayed.

After clarifying the situation, Ling Xingye was speechless. If it had been reported to the headquarters in time, the sprite would have been "resurrected" long ago, right?

Shaking his head, shaking off the annoyance in his heart, Ling Xingye asked: "How is the situation in your place now, Sister Yang? I heard that you have fallen into a war with automatic puppets throughout South America."

"Yeah, now the Yanshi Organization and the United States Alliance are using their influence to expand aggressively, which is very troublesome."

Ling Xingye suddenly became worried: "The situation is so serious! Do you want to help?"

"Don't worry, don't worry." Lu Xuyang quickly waved his hands, "It's just that the number of automatic puppets is a problem, which makes us exhausted. On the contrary, it can be done in a few strokes during the battle, and there is no problem at all. Changfeng Changyun and the others are here, Now there is a surplus of top combat power."

"Am I the only one who isn't there?" Ling Xingye said lonely, "Sure enough, I should go there too."

"You can stay there with peace of mind~lightnovelpub.net~ Lu Xuyang smiled and said, "It's rare to become a big shot, staying in Academy City can play a greater role. "

Lu Xuyang said energetically: "When these things are over, we must invite the Sun and Moon Lingkong Circus to perform in Academy City!"

"The biggest stage must be arranged at that time." Ling Xingye responded.

Suddenly, a message popped up on the phone screen.

From Passy, ​​marked "very important".

— An emergency meeting of the General Council will be held in five minutes.

After saying hello and goodbye to Lu Xuyang, Ling Xingye quickly found an empty classroom.

Then the meeting begins, and the multimedia system in the classroom is taken over, projecting a holographic image of the roundtable.

Including Ling Xingye, a total of ten directors, including Shiokishi who is still in the hospital, are all present.

"The meeting is starting now." The host Passy said nothing nonsense, "The latest information from the offshore operation team..."
