"Eh? Even your married classmate was attacked?! "
Zuotian Lei's eyes widened in shock as he shouted.
"Mmm."
Chu Chun nodded when she heard Zuotian Lei's question.
"But it's not a big deal. I heard that a mysterious person defeated those people in an instant."
"Sigh … a friend of justice who stands up for justice when he sees injustice."
Zuotian Lei could not help but sigh when he heard that. However … it was obvious that someone had a different opinion.
"That's not it!"
Kuroko slammed the table.
"He's neither a police officer nor a disciplinary committee member. Using violence at will is unreasonable. He's definitely a criminal! This kind of person should … Hmm? What's wrong with you guys? "
Shiroi Kuroko blinked in confusion when she saw Zuotian Lei and Chu Chun's stiff expressions. However, at that moment, another voice came from behind her.
"Say it, why aren't you continuing?"
"Hmm … Mr. Fangzheng."
Shiroi Kuroko turned around and saw Fangzheng standing behind her with a faint smile on his face. He was playing with the kitten with one hand while looking at her.
"You disciplinary committee members couldn't make it in time, and the police officers are useless. How can you not allow others to act bravely? That doesn't make sense, do you think so? Misaka? "
"Ah, that's right, that's right!"
Misaka Mikoto, who was feeling awkward earlier, nodded hurriedly. Shiroi Kuroko, on the other hand, put her hand on her forehead and sighed helplessly.
"Big sister, Mr. Fangzheng too. Please don't always be so … enthusiastic."
"It can't be helped. You saw it."
Fangzheng spread his hands.
"You should care if you see it, right? What else can you do? You disciplinary committee members will only come after the incident has happened. By the time you arrive, the victim will have already been attacked, right? Encouraging righteous acts is also for the sake of a harmonious society. If you ask me, you should always give awards and rewards to those who dare to stop the perpetrators. That way, public order will definitely improve. After all, there are plenty of ability users in the campus city. If you encourage them to help, those armed and powerless groups would have given up long ago. "
"Exactly."
Misaka Mikoto patted Fangzheng's arm happily and looked at Blackie.
"You always say that I went to provoke those hoodlums, but in reality, those hoodlums have always been arrogant. Look, they're bullying girls in broad daylight, but the others are acting as if they didn't see anything. It's because of this that these bastards are becoming more and more daring! "
"Uh …"
Shirai Kuroko was left speechless by Misaka Mikoto and Fangzheng's rebuttal.
"Besides, the Armed Incompetent Group is so arrogant because the people who should be doing things don't do them. If we count on them, we might as well count on a bunch of pigs. "
After saying that, Fangzheng coldly snorted, and Shirai Kuroko didn't know what to say. Although, logically speaking, the security guards were the main force in maintaining the security of the campus city, their freedom of action was not as high as that of the disciplinary committee. On the other hand, the disciplinary committee did not have as much influence as the guards.
Just like Fangzheng's previous suggestion, the disciplinary committee did not have the authority to do such things. Only the security guards could do so. However … after the incident with the Fantasy Driver, Shirai Kuroko had a lot of doubts about the security guards' ability to handle things, especially after she learned about the dark side of the campus city from Kiyama Harusei. She felt helpless.
Shirai Kuroko was not naive, nor was she naive. Of course, she could guess that the fact that the security guards were not mobilized for many incidents was probably intentional by the higher-ups of the campus city. However, Shirai Kuroko really could not do anything about it. After all, she was only a disciplinary committee member, and it was impossible for her to influence the decisions of the higher-ups.
"Forget it, but you guys still have to be careful."
Naturally, Fangzheng was not looking for trouble with Shirai Kuroko. He casually complained and then changed the topic.
"Be careful?"
"That's right, that 'Post-Marriage Photon' … is your friend, right? I remember she's a level 4 superhuman. Although not every superhuman is good at fighting … "
For example, if Frenda did not have a bomb, her ability would basically be useless against the enemy.
"… But generally speaking, even if a superhuman can't win, it should be easy for them to escape. In this case, they were still ganged up on by the hoodlums. I advise you guys to investigate. Maybe you'll find something. "
"Mr. Fangzheng, what do you mean?"
Hearing this, Shirai Kuroko also frowned slightly.
"What I mean is, maybe they obtained something that can restrain ability users."
"Huh? How could there be something like that … "
"How could there not be? Can't the Fantasy Driver also be used to improve abilities? Maybe it's the Fantasy Killer this time. "
"… … …"
Hearing Fangzheng's reminder, Kuroko also fell into deep thought. Indeed, with the precedent of the Fantasy Driver, she could not deny that there was a similar possibility …
"I understand. I'll investigate right away."
After receiving Fangzheng's hint, Shirai Kuroko, Chu Haru, Misaka Mikoto, and Tear Sakata immediately took action. As for Inteca, she basically lived in Tear's house, but Tear Sakata would leave her in the research institute and let Steele and God Rending Fireweaver take care of her every day.
Although Inteca was a little wary and afraid of Steele and God Rending Fireweaver at first, after Fangzheng told her that the two's abilities had been sealed by him and they could only be obedient slaves, Inteca was no longer so nervous.
This was another reason why the two could tolerate the work schedule of 007.
After all, although Inteca had forgotten about them, it was not a bad choice to temporarily return to the days when they took care of Inteca like before.
All of this was planned by Fangzheng long ago. As the saying goes, give a date after a slap … How could he make his employees work overtime willingly if they did not even have the ability to do so?
It would be even better if his employees did not even need overtime pay.
But if he could make his employees pay for the company instead … That was impossible …
According to Fangzheng's suggestion, Shirai Kuroko and the others initially wanted to look for Mitsuko after the marriage, but they were told that Mitsuko seemed to have been transferred to a hospital for a check-up and could not be contacted at the moment. Therefore, they had no choice but to look for other victims to ask about the situation. After going around for a while, Blackie and the others more or less obtained some information.
The reason why the armed powerless could defeat the metahumans was not only because they had the advantage in numbers, but also because they had guns!
Guns!
Misaka Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko were shocked when they heard this. Guns were quite rare in East Asia. They would believe it if everyone in America had one, but in Gakuen City …
After receiving this news, Blackie felt that he more or less understood why the metahumans were attacked. Even if they were metahumans, they were still just junior high school students. Even Misaka Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko did not dare to say that they could completely remain calm when they saw the black muzzle pointed at them, let alone the average metahuman.
After that, Shirai Kuroko immediately contacted the guards and informed them of the situation, hoping that the guards would be dispatched to arrest the armed powerless. However, the other party said that they did not have any evidence, and they could not mobilize a large number of people based on the current situation …
Hearing this, Misaka Mikoto could not hold it in anymore.
"If that's the case, let's find the evidence and show it to them!"
This time, even Shirai Kuroko did not stop Misaka Mikoto. She also realized that the guards were really unreliable … Although Shirai Kuroko did not want to think that way.
After that, Chu Chun investigated the location of the armed powerless organization "Spider". Then, Misaka Mikoto, Shirai Kuroko, and Zutian Leiko rushed over. They followed the clues and soon found the organization's stronghold.
"I'm a disciplinary committee member!"
Looking at the hoodlums surrounding him, Shiroi Kuroko didn't have the slightest bit of fear. He openly displayed his armband.
"I'm arresting you as the mastermind of the incident of hurting ability users, Misaka Misaka."
"Arresting me? Just by relying on you brats? "
Hearing Kuroko's words, the man in the black jacket smiled proudly.
"I don't have time to play house with you kids. I advise you to leave."
"You really know how to talk. Do you think I'll let you villains who attack others go?"
Hearing this, Misaka Mikoto clenched her fists angrily. An electric current appeared in front of her. Seeing this, the man narrowed his eyes.
"Look at your uniform … You're students from Changpantai. In other words, you're high and mighty ability users?"
As he spoke, the man's voice became louder.
"Villains who attack others? If we're villains, then what are you metahumans?! "
"Huh?"
Hearing the man's roar, Misaka Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko were dumbfounded.
"So those without abilities are defective products? Do they deserve to be abandoned? To you metahumans, are us powerless people so insignificant? "
Saying this, the man clenched his fists.
"That's right, this city belongs to metahumans. We powerless people are just ants. However, when there are too many ants, they'll bite us to death. So what if you're a metahuman? Won't you still kneel in front of us, cry, and beg for mercy? Do you think that you're so great just because you're high and mighty, and us powerless people are just a bunch of pigs? But now, let me tell you, us powerless people have our own strength that is not inferior to metahumans! "
Saying this, the man suddenly raised his hand and pressed a button.
"— — —!!!"
Suddenly, an ear-piercing noise was heard. Hearing this noise, Misaka Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko shuddered.
"What, what's that sound …"
The sharp noise seemed to penetrate directly into their brains, causing both of them to feel extreme pain. Shiroi Kuroko gritted her teeth and wanted to teleport immediately, but … her figure only swayed slightly, and then she quickly stopped.
"My ability is ineffective?"
"With this thing, you metahumans are just a bunch of pigs waiting to be slaughtered."
With a twisted face, the man revealed a cold smile as he walked toward the three of them.
"Just watch, kids. Attacking metahumans is just the beginning. We're going to start a revolution in this city, a revolution that belongs to us powerless people. We're going to overthrow the metahumans and the higher-ups of the academy who see us powerless people as useless and burdensome! I'm going to show you that the power of us powerless people is not something you can ignore! "
After saying that, the man stretched out his leg and kicked at Hei Zi.
However …
"Whoosh — —!!"
Before the man could kick Shirai Kuroko, a strong gust of wind rose from the ground and turned into a wind wall in front of Misaka Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko, blocking the man's attack. At the same time, Zuo Tianlei gripped his longsword tightly and stood in front of the two of them.
"Are you alright, Misaka Mikoto, Shirai?"
"Zuo Tianlei?"
Misaka Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko were shocked when they saw Zuo Tianlei controlling the wind wall with his longsword.
