After arriving at the hospital, Sei Itō placed Indix and the Last Work that would appear today or in the future in the office assigned to him by the Underworld Soul Hunter. Then, he changed into a doctor's white coat and went to the lower floor to start his shift.
However, not long after Sei Itō left the office, Indix brought the Last Work out of the office as well. Following the route that he took when he followed Sei Itō to the special treatment room last time, he arrived at the special treatment room and met the Inferior Individuals of the Last Work — the Misaka sisters.
With the existence of the Last Work, the special treatment room could not be left alone. However, Sei Itō and the Underworld Soul Hunter had yet to discover this, so they could do whatever they wanted. Fortunately, they knew that this was an important medical facility that was specifically used to treat the sisters. Therefore, they were careful and did not cause any damage.
On the other hand, after receiving a few patients, Sei Itō's phone suddenly rang, interrupting his work.
"Hello." Sei Itō held the phone between his face and shoulder as he pressed the stethoscope against the male patient's body.
"Sei Itō, can you come to Tokiwadai University now?" Misaka Mikoto's voice was heard from the phone. She sounded shy and muffled.
"Is it urgent?" Sei Itō put away the stethoscope and asked with a frown.
"It's urgent. It's best if you can come over immediately," Misaka Mikoto said urgently.
"Alright then. Wait a moment, I'll be there soon, "Sei Itō replied.
"Remember to be quick," Misaka Mikoto said worriedly.
"Okay," Ito Sei responded, then hung up the phone and put away the receiver.
"Your body is fine. Go back and rest. Drink more water and you'll be fine." Sei Itō looked at the man in front of him and smiled.
"Is that so? Thank you, doctor. "The male patient was relieved and thanked the doctor.
"Mei Li, send the patient out. Also, tell the patient outside to wait for a moment," Sei Itō said to the nurse beside him.
"Okay, doctor." The young nurse named Mei Li nodded. Then, he led the patient out of the consultation room.
Then, Sei Itō also stood up from his seat. He followed the nurse Mei Li and the male patient out of the consultation room. He found another doctor who had nothing to do to take his place. After that, Sei Itō returned to his office and prepared to explain the situation to Inticus and Fina.
However, when Sei Itō returned to his office, Indix and his final work were nowhere to be seen. Seeing this. Sei Itō had no choice but to take out his phone again. She dialed a certain time when she was out on the street. He had taken the time to buy a cell phone for Inticus.
"Hello, this is Inticus." Inticus, who had only used a cell phone a few times, still sounded a little flustered.
"Where are you and Fina?" Sei Itō asked.
"In the treatment room you went to last time, with the ice beauties," Inticus replied. At the same time. A faint sound of playfulness, especially the laughter of the final work, came from the phone.
"Is that so? Then you guys can have fun there first. I have to leave for a while and will be back later. If there are any problems, call me or look for the round-faced doctor I saw last time, "Sei Itō said.
"Got it," Indix, who was already used to Sei Itō leaving at the drop of a hat, replied firmly.
After that, Sei Itō gave Indix a few more instructions and hung up the phone. He put away his phone, took off his white coat, and left the Third Hospital of a certain university in casual clothes. He then took an autonomous bus to the campus area where Tokiwadai Girls School was located.
Ten minutes later, Sei Itō successfully arrived at the entrance of Tokiwadai Girls School.
"I'm here, where are you?" Sei Itō took out his phone and called Misaka Mikoto.
"Wait, I'll be right there," Misaka Mikoto said hurriedly as if she was relieved and hung up the phone.
A few minutes later, Misaka Mikoto, who was wearing the Tokiwadai Girls School uniform and had a stiff smile on her face, walked out of Tokiwadai Girls School together with a handsome young man who was wearing off-white trousers, a white shirt, and a khaki-colored long-sleeved V-neck sweater. The exposed collar and cuffs of the shirt were tightly buttoned. He had a gentle and sunny expression, giving people the impression that he came from a good family.
Behind the two of them, the windows of the Tokiwadai Girls School dormitory were mostly open. Many young girls of different appearances poked their heads out of the windows and whispered to Misaka Mikoto and the man who were walking together.
"So that's how it is. The incident with Hikari Hikari … I didn't expect that I would become Shoujo Touma's replacement. I wonder if this fake Hikari Hikari's main assassination target was Shoujo Touma, or me, the random intruder who walked together with the sex index." Ito Sei squinted his eyes and looked at Haiyuan Mitsuki, who looked like a prince on a white horse.
After a short walk, Misaka Mikoto and the fake Haihara Mitsuki finally walked out of Tokiwadai Girls School.
Misaka Mikoto looked around and locked onto Sei Itō who was standing not far away. She greeted Haihara Mitsuki and ignored the Tokiwadai Girls School's motto of being a lady at all times. She ran to Sei Itō's side and held onto Sei Itō's arm as if they were lovers.
The moment Misaka Mikoto held onto Sei Itō's arm, a loud commotion could be heard from the Tokiwadai Girls Dormitory.
"Don't say anything. I'll arrange everything. Follow me." Misaka Mikoto put on a happy expression and gritted her teeth. She then dragged Sei Itō away from Tokiwadai Girls School.
"I say, what are you trying to do?" Sei Itō asked Misaka Mikoto who was sitting next to him. He was on a tram heading towards the center of Sector 7 with Misaka Mikoto.
"Ha, ha ~" Misaka Mikoto laughed awkwardly. Then she asked with embarrassment and shyness, "Please put on a show with me today. Pretend to be my boyfriend and deceive the boy you saw just now. Tell him not to pester me anymore. As a reward, I can treat you to a meal."
"I didn't expect it to be such a vulgar act. Really …" Sei Itō shook his head speechlessly. He didn't wait for Misaka Mikoto to be angered by his words and asked, "But then again, Tokiwadai Girls School is an all-girls school right? Shouldn't unrelated males be banned from entering? Why did he walk out with you? "
"That's right under normal circumstances. But that guy is the grandson of the chairman of Tokiwadai Girls School. So that rule doesn't apply to him. "Misaka Mikoto explained helplessly.
"So he's a rich third generation." Sei Itō nodded in realization.
Both of them couldn't find a topic to talk about and fell silent. After a while, Misaka Mikoto finally broke the silence. She asked softly, "My sisters … how are they doing now?"
"After this period of adjustment, I've made a lot of adjustments. The first stage of adjustment is about to end. It basically saved the sisters' lives and allowed them to live a healthy life for the time being. As for the second and third stage of extending their lives, it will take a long time. " However, it will take a long time to slowly adjust. "Ito Sei turned his head to look at the slowly receding street scene outside the car window and stated slowly.
"However, according to the Underworld Soul Hunter, the upper echelons of Academy City believe that it's a problem to have so many sisters living in Academy City, so they've decided to transfer most of the sisters to their respective organizations for follow-up adjustments, leaving only ten sisters in Academy City for follow-up adjustments." Itsunari then changed the topic and continued to explain.
"Is that so …" Misaka Mikoto murmured.
"Do you want to go see them later?" Sei Itō turned his head to look at Misaka Mikoto and asked softly.
"Yeah." Misaka Mikoto replied softly.
The two of them fell into silence again.
Ten minutes later, Sei Itō and Misaka Mikoto got off the tram and started strolling on the street like a couple. However, as time went by, Misaka Mikoto seemed to have forgotten about her acting. She was completely engrossed in her own interests. When she remembered that Ito Sei was still beside her, she awkwardly explained and hurried off to the next location.
"Hey, I'm going to buy some fruit juice. What flavor do you want?" Misaka Mikoto stopped by a bench and asked Ito Sei, probably because she was tired.
"As long as it's not coffee or any other special flavor, just a simple juice is fine." Sei Itō lowered his body and sat on the bench.
"Got it." Misaka Mikoto replied and ran away from Sei Itō. She went to a nearby convenience store to buy some juice.
Today was the 31st of August, the last day of summer break. There were too many students rushing out to have fun before school started. So, there was a long line in front of Misaka Mikoto at the convenience store.
Just as Misaka Mikoto left, a dog with a leash around its neck ran past Sei Itō. Then, a five or six-year-old boy and Haiyuan Mitsuki, whom Sei Itō had met before, appeared in front of him. They were both chasing after the dog.
Just as Haiyuan Mitsuki ran past them, his gaze coincidentally fell on Sei Itō. He stopped running and walked towards Sei Itō.
"Nice to meet you. How should I address you?" Haiyuan Mitsuki, who looked like a weak young man, asked Ito Sei with a smile.
"Sei Itō," Sei Itō replied.
"My name is Haiyuan Mitsuki," Haiyuan Mitsuki said.
"I know," Sei Itō asked. "Why are you looking for me?"
"Erm, are you Miss Misaka's friend?" Haiyuan Mitsuki asked boldly.
"Do you care?" Sei Itō looked at Haiyuan Mitsuki with interest.
"Yes, it's a matter of course for the men around the person I like," Hihara Mitsuki said straightforwardly, and then sat down next to Ito Sei.
"What answer do you want to hear? The expected answer? Or the unexpected answer? "Sei Itō glanced at Haiyuan Mitsuki and asked.
"No matter what the answer is, I won't change my mind," Haiyuan Mitsuki said without hesitation.
"You're quite the infatuated person." Sei Itō said calmly and paused for a while before continuing, "But it's useless for you to tell me this. The key is to make Mikoto like you."
"Alright, Mikoto is coming back. I'll talk to you later. Goodbye." Sei Itō got up from his seat and greeted Misaka Mikoto who had just returned with a cold drink under Haiyuan Mitsuki's gaze.
"Why is that guy here?" Misaka Mikoto quickly ran back to Sei Itō's side and looked at Haiyuan Mitsuki who was sitting not far away.
"It's just a coincidence." Sei Itō took the cold drink from Misaka Mikoto and said, "But that guy is really infatuated. He told me that no matter what the result is, he won't change his mind. So, do you want to reconsider?"
At the end of his sentence, Ito Mori looked at Misaka Mikoto beside him.
"What … what nonsense are you talking about?!" Misaka Mikoto's face turned red as she panicked and shouted.
After that, the two of them returned to their previous state and strolled on the streets. They didn't stop until noon.
"I'll queue up. You can find a place to stay. I'll decide what to eat. You don't have any objections, right? "Misaka Mikoto said as she looked at the crowded food delivery stand.
"Let's queue up together," Sei Itō said as he was also looking at the food delivery stand.
"It's fine. I'm the one who dragged you here today. I should at least serve you," Misaka Mikoto said as she ran to the food delivery stand and squeezed into the crowd.
Sei Itō did not say anything. He turned around and walked to a green area covered by a large tree. He lowered his body and sat on the low metal fence to prevent pedestrians from stepping on it. Not long after Sei Itō sat down, Haiyuan Mitsuki's figure appeared in front of him again.
"Looks like I've been targeted," Sei Itō said as he raised his eyebrows. Before Haiyuan Mitsuki could say anything, Ito Sei took the lead and said in surprise, "Eh? You're Haiyuan Mitsuki? "
Haiyuan Mitsuki was stunned by Sei Itō's reaction. He replied instinctively, "Yes."
"Since you're here, who's the person I saw just now?" Sei Itō pretended to be puzzled as he turned around. He then looked at Haiyuan Mitsuki and asked, "Are you sure you don't have a twin brother?"
"No, I'm the only child in my family," Haiyuan Mitsuki shook his head and answered. He then looked at Sei Itō doubtfully and asked, "May I ask, does that person really look like me?"
"How is that similar? They're exactly the same. Even the clothes they're wearing are exactly the same!" Sei Itō replied seriously. To be continued …)
