The Puppeteer of Academy City

Although it was less than 20 minutes before the end of the exam, Sakura Sachiko had indeed finished reviewing all 30 exam papers.

Students are already used to this.

As an adult and a teacher, Sachiko Sakura is also a small group of people in Academy City who do not have superpowers at all.

However, she is naturally not an ordinary role to be the teacher of this group of gifted students in Changdian Shangji Academy.

Although not as good as Hitomi Shiranui's absolute memory ability, Sachiko Sakura also has a "super brain".

Ten lines at a glance, almost scanning-like reading speed, and a strong memory formed through special training, allowed her to process all the test papers in just 20 minutes.

Hearing Ling Xingye's question, Teacher Sachiko Sakura showed a displeased expression on her face.

Sure enough, Hitomi Shiranui and Ling Xingye were among the only three full marks in the class.

Since the handwriting of the two was almost exactly the same, Teacher Xingzi did not suspect Ling Xingye of cheating.

After all, Ling Xingye does have the qualifications for full marks... as long as he is willing.

Ling Xingye's cheating method does not rely on superpowers, so the instrument cannot detect it at all. Moreover, this is a secret method between him and Hitomi Shiranui, which is unknown to outsiders, and of course it is even more impossible to be discovered.

According to everyone's performance, the bonus will arrive almost simultaneously.

Although there is no fourth perfect score, the whole class has achieved high scores, and the bonus has not been deducted too much.

So the whole class cheered and began to wait for the final holiday time.

After that, school will be over in two hours, and tomorrow will be the first day of summer vacation. This pre-holiday exam is actually a benefit Mr. Sachiko seeks for the students—to give the students an extra pocket money in a legal name so that they can enjoy the summer vacation better.

It is also from this holiday that Ling Xingye will move out of the special dormitory building in Changdian Shangji Academy, and choose a relatively remote student apartment to live alone.

…

The sprite turned into a ghostly black shadow, and the sharp blades that popped out from the wrists of both hands flashed past the enemy like the wind.

The other party didn't seem to think that I could manipulate sprites to make such a sharp counterattack in this situation, right?

Blood burst, both arms and left legs fell off the man's body!

Amidst the screams, the spear stuck in my chest also lost its power, unable to tear my chest further.

I was the one who won and survived in the end!

…

"Xingye, are you tired lately? You fell asleep again before school just now... When Teacher Sachiko was talking, Teacher Sachiko is very dissatisfied with you now."

On the way back from school, Hitomi Shiranui looked worriedly at the boy beside him.

The two were walking side by side to Ling Xingye's new home.

"Maybe it was because I slept late last night." Ling Xingye responded.

He was carrying a huge travel bag in his hand, the size could almost fit a person in it, and it was packed full, but Ling Xingye didn't seem to be struggling at all, walking easily and freely.

"I'm going to live alone from now on, so I can't stay up all night." Hitomi Shiranui warned worriedly.

"Okay, okay..." But the boy's reply was full of perfunctory tone, not trustworthy at all.

Ling Xingye didn't give the other party a chance to reprimand, so he quickly changed the subject—

"By the way, what does Hitomi think of dreams?"

Hitomi Shiranui nodded, with a really emotional expression: "Did you really have a nightmare? Before and after the exam just now. There is a theory that dreams are foretelling the future.

"The scientific explanation is that the brain subconsciously integrates the information around it and makes predictions about the future... In my opinion, Starry Night's dream should be of this type, right?"

"Oh? Really?" Ling Xingye said, "Are new enemies coming again?"

"After all, it has been quiet for so long." Shiranui Hitomi did not show the slightest surprise, "Be safe and well."

"Don't worry, you've already gotten used to this kind of thing—the two of us," Ling Xingye didn't take it seriously, and stepped forward quickly, "Here we are, right here!"

"Is there such a desolate apartment building in the seventh school district?"

Standing downstairs of the dilapidated apartment on the seventh floor, Hitomi Shiranui couldn't help but marvel.

Because the famous "big lady's school" - Tokiwadai Middle School is located in the seventh school district, and Hitomi Shiranui's contact with the most is this kind of wealthy school, so she always thought it was a very high school district.

"That's because Hitomi has only been in contact with Tokiwadai Middle School." Ling Xingye was not frustrated by the dilapidated appearance of the apartment building, "There are also many ordinary schools here. Many schools do not have their own dormitory buildings planned separately, so Students can only live in these student apartments, and live separately. But the advantage is that they all share a single room, and the rent is cheap.”

"It's not bad to say that." Shiranui Hitomi smiled and nodded, acting more excited than Ling Xingye himself, and took his hand and walked forward, "Then hurry up and look at the room! It's on the seventh floor ?”

The two squeezed into the slightly cramped elevator and pressed the button for the seventh floor.

It seems that there is a roof above, but the corresponding button has been firmly covered by an iron plate.

The two squeezed together face to face in the elevator, Shiranui Hitomi's plump chest pressed tightly against Ling Xingye's chest, but the girl herself didn't seem to care, instead she was worried that her clothes would be stained by the elevator wall, so she moved closer to Ling Xingye.

"What a small elevator! How did the people from the moving company move the big piece of furniture up?" The girl was concerned about other aspects.

"There is an emergency staircase next to it." Ling Xingye explained, "Or choose air transportation. Drones, ladders, people with related abilities... There are many methods that can be used."

As he said that, Ling Xingye found that Hitomi Shiranui was looking straight at him with his head up.

"…What's wrong?"

"Xingye grows so fast, before I know it, she's already a head taller than me."

The girl stood on her tiptoes so that the eyes of the two were at the same level: "When we first met, I was still a little taller than you."

"Ding!"

The elevator just reached the seventh floor, Hitomi Shiranui turned around and jumped out of the elevator.

Ling Xingye shook his head, and followed with his huge travel bag. The elevator was so crowded before, and there was also the reason for this travel bag that I always carry with me.

"After all, we've known each other for three years."

You don't need to look for it deliberately, you can tell at a glance that there is a pile of packed boxes at the door, which is Ling Xingye's future residence.

He took the key out of his pocket.

"I'll open the door, I'll open the door!" Hitomi Shiranui grabbed the key.

Ling Xingye did not refuse, and stood behind waiting for the girl to open the door.

At this moment, the door of an apartment next door opened.

"Unfortunate!" Accompanied by the sound of some kind of plastic being crushed, a boy wailed?

"My mobile phone, my savings card!" A boy with a prickly hair almost ran out of the door in tears.

Then they saw Ling Xingye and the two who were about to go in at the door next door, and they looked at each other in blank dismay.

The hedgehog head probably didn't expect that there was an outsider here, so he cried so exaggeratedly.

Originally, there were no residents on the seventh floor of this apartment building, and the only one was his best friend and bad friend, so of course he didn't care too much on weekdays, but it was really embarrassing to perform Yan Yi in front of strangers.

"Ahaha," Hedgehog scratched his head and laughed dryly, "So you are the new neighbor who is going to move in... Hello, hello, my name is Kamijou Touma, please take care of me in the future."

Kamijou Touma stretched out his right hand towards Hitomi Shiranui, and it seemed that he took the girl who opened the door with the key as a resident.

"I'm sorry, but I'm actually the one who wants to move in." Ling Xingye took a step forward, "Ling Xingye, please take care of me."

Kamijou Touma's face froze for a moment, and he muttered softly, "I'm just saying, how could such a cute and beautiful girl become my neighbor? Mr. Kamijou has never encountered such a good thing."

But it was just a rant, and Kamijou Touma, who has a bold personality, naturally stretched out his right hand to Ling Xingye, ready to shake hands.

Although all the plots and characters in the world of the Index of Magical Forbidden Books have been forgotten, only the protagonist in it—the young man nicknamed "Pickup Hand" in front of him, Ling Xingye still has a certain impression.

Is this right hand, the "Fantasy Killer" who can break all superpowers and magical effects?

Ling Xingye looked down at Kamijou Touma's outstretched right hand. It looked nothing special, but Ling Xingye didn't intend to let "Fantasy Killer" touch it easily.

After all, one's abilities are unfolding all the time.

"What's wrong?" Kamijou Touma looked at the other party suspiciously, and then checked whether his right hand was dirty or not cleaned.

"No, nothing." Ling Xingye stretched out his left hand.

what does this mean?

Kamijou Touma looked awkwardly at the crutched hands between the two, and froze.

"I'm sorry, because I'm right-handed." Ling Xingye explained.

"If my common sense is correct, what you are holding out is your left hand?"

Ling Xingye nodded: "Yes, that's why I'm used to shaking hands with my left hand. I think, in this city, there should be no taboo against shaking hands with your left hand, right?"

Hitomi Shiranui behind him added: "Xingye is a puppet master, so he pays great attention to protecting his right hand."

"Puppeteer? Performer?" Kamijou Touma felt that he couldn't keep up with the rhythm, but after getting a reasonable explanation, he obediently changed his left hand to complete this simple handshake ceremony.

"It's the first time I feel so tired shaking hands..."

Ling Xingye smiled and said: "I'm sorry, someone played a prank in the circus before, and wore an iron ring to hold it up, but the bone broke."

"So there are such things! No wonder..." Kamijou Touma immediately expressed his understanding.

Shiranuotong snickered at the side, Xingye didn't say who was injured by the fractured bone.

Because Ling Xingye's two hands are equally flexible, there is no clear distinction of "dominant hand", so it depends entirely on his personal mood.

"Hey, I just found out that the uniforms of the two... don't they look like the school?" Kamijou Touma exclaimed, "Why do you live in such a remote place?"

Ling Xingye showed a kind smile: "There are various reasons. I will disturb you in the future. Please take care of me."

— After all, according to Chairman Aleister, he found the dormitory building with the strongest fighting power for himself.

"Do you need my help?" Kamijou Touma asked enthusiastically. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

"No, no, thank you." Hitomi Shiranui said, "I'm here to help."

Get a girl to help move?

Then, Kamijou Touma saw Ling Xingye carrying the huge travel bag with one hand, and lightly holding five large cardboard boxes outside the door with the other hand.

"Sure enough, it's a borrowed ability... Is it the telekinetic type?"

In Academy City, this situation is by no means uncommon.

Seeing that he didn't need to help himself, Kamijou Touma didn't stay any longer, he was going to reapply for his savings card and replace his mobile phone. By the way, to solve the dinner problem-the last one was the original purpose of his original trip.

The internal setting of the student apartment is good, with a small kitchen, bathroom, and balcony. The biggest difference from ordinary houses is that there is only one living room, which combines all the functions of living room, study and bedroom.

But as a single apartment for one person, it is quite an ideal environment.

Since it was the first day I moved in, I just tidied up roughly to meet basic living needs. Further arrangements will have to wait until later to gradually improve.

Although Shi Zhihuotong didn't mind finishing the whole arrangement in one go, Ling Xingye didn't want to waste too much time.

He also remembered that today was a treat—upgrading ice cream to dinner.

The dormitory building of Shangji Academy has an access control time, so you need to hurry up.

It's 4:30 in the afternoon, which is actually still early. Different schools have different arrangements, and the vast majority of students only start to leave school one after another at this time.

It's obviously too early for dinner now.

Ling Xingye's insistence on coming out so early was actually for his performance.

Street puppet show.
