MTL - The Puppeteer of Academy City-Chapter 52 a familiar stranger

In the hospital lobby, besides the busy doctors and nurses and patients waiting for medical treatment, there is also a "unique" existence that is unconsciously attracting everyone's attention.

Kumiko Yanaka, a blond beauty with cool clothes and a strong figure, is chewing nicotine gum in boredom. If it wasn't for the hospital's no-smoking area, she would even take out a cigarette and light it.

She stood out in the environment in a camouflage camisole and baggy jeans. It seems to be the only color in this white world.

But maybe because she was so eye-catching, she would not be so suspicious.

Doctor Gao, who was still in Lingxingye's ward just now, strode out from the corridor next to him. As he walked, he took off his mask and medical cap, and took off his white coat, revealing the ordinary office worker's suit and tie underneath.

The man joined Kumiko Yanaka, threw the camouflage clothes on the bench beside him, and left peacefully like ordinary people who came to visit the sick.

"How is it?" Although she was the one who was hired, Kumiko didn't have much self-consciousness. Instead, she took the initiative to ask her employer, "How is the situation of Brother Xingye? Then it will not be easy to survive the terrifying attack." Bar?"

"It's nothing serious." Lu Cun—the man named Lukaal said calmly, "As I expected, he didn't suffer too much damage. Only the brain was impacted, and part of its memory and functions were lost. "

He stretched out his finger and pointed at the location of the brain.

"Sure enough..." Kumiko curled her lips, "You don't want to kill him at all, do you?"

According to the original plan, Luka should take the opportunity to torture Ling Xingye, and kill him immediately after obtaining the original text of "Thousands of Changes".

"Of course, 'they' won't let me kill him easily before I get the original script of "Thousand Machine Changes."

"Not only that?" Kumiko said suddenly, "Also, master, you already know that brother Xingye doesn't have the so-called original script at all! So, you don't care about his amnesia at all."

Luka stopped and turned to look at her: "Do your job well and don't think about it."

Then, Lukaal seemed to be talking to himself, "Of course I want to take this opportunity to get rid of him... However, 'missing him' in battle and murdering him while he was seriously injured in the hospital are completely different concepts. Those old immortals will not forgive that kind of thing of.

"What's more, in the hospital just now, that frog-shaped doctor was the real monster—that's his field, how could he allow me to easily succeed?"

Misunderstood by Ling Xingye as a special ward for the "Amnesia Department", Kamijou Touma sat on the hospital bed with a blank expression, frankly admitting the fact that he had lost his memory.

In fact, he didn't mean to hide this fact either—the only one he really wanted to hide was Index.

Although the memory is empty, there is no memory of the girl before. But her reaction to actions and the outpouring of true feelings touched Kamijou in an instant.

Even if it was just to protect the beautiful memory of this girl, Kamijou Touma immediately made up his mind to hide the fact that he lost his memory.

Doctor Frog rarely showed a frustrated expression: "Only human memory, I have no good way to recover it...Maybe I can only rely on those superpowers in this academy."

Then, Doctor Frog looked at Ling Xingye again: "Then, what about you? Do you still remember who you are?"

"Hey! Have you lost your memory too?" Kamijou Touma looked at him quickly, with an expression of a brother in need.

Doctor Frog said: "Of course, because you two were admitted to the hospital together because of the same incident."

Yeah? Ling Xingye couldn't help looking at Kamijou Touma next door, and found that the latter was also looking at him with the same eyes.

However, no matter how much the two amnesiacs look at each other, they will never recall the events they experienced together not long ago.

"Okay, answer my question, do you still remember who you are?" Dr. Frog asked again, "Student Kamijou here has lost all his memories since he was born, which is very troublesome."

"It's not that serious." Ling Xingye said, "I just lost the memory of the last three years—just the part since I came to Academy City."

"Can you locate it precisely?" Dr. Frog asked curiously, "Have you really lost your memory?"

"Indeed," Ling Xingye nodded, "There is no record of all experiences, only a blank space. However, there doesn't seem to be much missing in terms of knowledge and skills—at least I still remember all the middle school courses, and the knowledge in the first semester of the first year of high school .”

"Really!" Kamijou Touma scratched his head and said, "I also remember the knowledge I learned...but it's not so solid, and it's also very vague. It seems that it's still affected."

"No," said Doctor Frog, "that's just simple forgetting, which means that your academic performance is not good."

The ward fell silent again, and Doctor Frog, who forcibly ended the topic, looked at the form in his hand unconsciously, preparing to give Ling Xingye a detailed examination.

Ling Xingye suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the door: "From just now, is there someone at the door?"

The other two followed the trend and looked towards the door, apparently finding nothing unusual.

As if echoing Ling Xingye's words, the door was slowly opened.

It is eye-catching, there are two girls standing at the door, one is a standard black long straight girl, wearing a daily T-shirt and jeans, and a short-sleeved shirt outside, looking graceful.

The other girl with brown hair seems to be younger, she still looks like a junior high school student, and even if she comes to the hospital to visit, she still wears the school uniform. She should be an obedient and good girl, right?

Of course, to Ling Xingye and Kamijou Touma, they are strangers who don't know each other.

But strangers would never come here to visit the sick, let alone show such a sad expression.

Kamijou Touma couldn't help but panic—he just made up his mind to hide his amnesia. It doesn't matter if Dr. Frog and his patient Ling Xingye know it, but other "acquaintances" must be concealed.

Because the more people know, the more likely that girl named Index will know the truth!

Kamijou Touma was sure that the two girls who appeared at the door at this time were definitely people he had known before. Regardless of the beautiful black-haired girl, the sadness on the face of the brown-haired junior high school student definitely had his own share!

"How is the sound insulation effect of the room here?" Ling Xingye suddenly asked Doctor Frog~www.novelbuddy.com~The sound insulation effect of the ward is of course very good," Doctor Frog shrugged, "But I didn't lock the door just now, maybe I didn't realize it There may be a gap left in between..."

"..." Ling Xingye was silent for a moment, "Alright, then don't bother explaining."

"How could this be..." The tea-haired girl showed an unacceptable expression, "Both of you have lost your memory?"

Ling Xingye said: "Although I don't remember what happened, it's not difficult to guess what happened before. Generally speaking, at this time, shouldn't we be glad that we survived, Misaka?"

Misaka Mikoto's eyes lit up: "Xingye, do you still remember me?"

Hitomi Shiranui beside her frowned slightly.

"How come you don't know the third-ranked superpower in Academy City?" Ling Xingye said, "But that's all the information I know...I'm also curious, how did I get along with you before? Miss Pantai knows it."

Misaka Mikoto's expression suddenly froze.

"Indeed," Hitomi Shiranui sighed, "Misaka-san's information can also be attributed to 'knowledge' or 'common sense'."

"So...you really don't remember?" Misaka Mikoto shook violently, "Xingye, and Kamijou idiot, have you really forgotten all of them?"

"Why is my treatment completely different here!" Kamijou Touma couldn't help complaining.

"What, what is this!" Misaka Mikoto turned around and grabbed Hitomi Shiranui's arm, "Senior Shiranui, this is definitely not right! You..."

However, the girl saw the calm and unwavering expression on the senior's face, as if she didn't care about the current situation at all.
