Half of the sun had already sunk below the horizon, and the sunset glow dyed half the sky red.
"Ah! What a great harvest! "
Uiharu, who was holding a large plastic bag in both hands and a lush flower on her head, skipped ahead.
"Looks like Uiharu is really happy!"
Mikoto, who was carrying a handbag, saw how happy Uiharu was, and her mood also soared.
"Hey, Uiharu, how are you going to spend the next half a month?" Seeing Uiharu spend a lot of money to buy a lot of Eight-cloud Ink's Doujinshi and all kinds of merchandise, Ruiko "kindly" asked from the side.
Then, Uiharu, who was hit hard, suddenly hugged the plastic bag tightly and squatted on the ground.
"Ah, you're turning gray."
Kuroko walked up and poked Uiharu's back curiously.
"Really, Uiharu seems to be completely spoiled when she sees the Oriental series."
Ruiko was already calculating whether her remaining living expenses were enough to support her and Uiharu for the rest of the month.
"No matter how much you like it, there should be a limit. If you really can't go to the forums and download all kinds of books for free!"
"Zuta-san, I think you're also spoiled …"
Mikoto began to worry about the moral integrity of her two friends who could still be considered normal.
"This is the only thing I won't give up on!"
Uiharu, who was squatting on the ground and hugging the plastic bag, suddenly raised her head with a determined expression.
"Even if I starve to death on the streets, I still have to get these! These are all my life's source! "
"Isn't your source of life one of those rich young ladies …"
Ruiko, who was always conflicted about her friend's strange hobby of wanting to live a rich young lady's life, didn't feel happy at all about her friend's change of interest.
"Although that's also very important …"
Uiharu opened the plastic bag and took out a Doujinshi manga. The cover was a picture of a Eight-cloud Ink wearing a black Daoist robe happily eating peaches with a masochist.
"Ah, I'm full …"
"You're already full!!!" Ruiko stepped forward and took out a paper fan from who knows where and hit Uiharu's head a few times. "Why don't you just go get some sunlight and photosynthesize!!"
"Ugh, Zuta-san is so scary …"
Flowerpot covered her head and squatted down like Remy.
"Forget it, forget it. Chu Chun, have you guys been busy with the Conduct and Discipline Committee recently?"
"Yeah, I'm not that busy. Why?"
"Then I'll introduce you to the restaurant where I work when I'm free. That way, you'll be able to survive this month."
In the end, she found that her living expenses were not enough to support the two of them. She rolled her eyes.
"In early spring, you can ask me to lift my skirt to attract customers at the entrance of the restaurant."
"Student Zuotian!!!"
The flower pot immediately jumped up like a cat with its fur standing on end.
"Huh?! Elder Sister! "
Kuroko was watching the interaction between Ruiko and Uiharu with a grin on her face. Suddenly, she sensed that something was wrong and turned to look at Mikoto with a serious expression.
"What's wrong, Blackie?"
Mikoto, who thought that her classmate was going to rub up on her again, subconsciously distanced herself from Kuroko.
"Elder Sister, what kind of reaction is this? Hei Zi is so sad … "
Hei Zi pretended to be sad as he held his forehead. Then, Hei Zi revealed a serious expression.
"Blackie sensed an abnormal fluctuation in the nearby space …"
"Abnormal fluctuation?"
This time, not only Mikoto, even Uiharu and Ruiko who were playing around turned around.
As a Level 4 Space user, Kuroko's perception of spatial abnormalities was very sensitive.
"Now that you mention it …"
Mikoto's forehead began to emit electricity.
"… There is indeed a place where the electromagnetic field is distorted very strangely."
Receiving Kuroko's reminder, as a Level 5 esper, Mikoto carefully sensed the electromagnetic field around her. She also noticed that the electromagnetic field in a place not too far away was very strange.
"To be able to cause this kind of spatial fluctuation, the other party has to be at least a Level 4 spatial ability user. However, there are 58 registered spatial ability users in Academy City, and only 19 of them have reached Level 4, including me, Blackie, and only 3 of them are active in School District 7."
While saying that, Kuroko took out the Discipline Committee's armband from her backpack.
"Hey, Uiharu, get up and get to work. We need to go take a look."
"Ah ah! Okay! "
Uiharu who was called by Kuroko hurriedly took out the armband from her handbag.
"Um, let's go take a look as well."
Mikoto stepped forward but was stopped by Kuroko's hand.
"Onee-sama, this is the Discipline Committee's job. Onee-sama can follow, but please don't act on your own!"
"Okay okay …"
Knowing that Kuroko attached great importance to the Discipline Committee's job, Mikoto didn't mind.
The group of four girls with curious expressions began to rush towards the location of the fluctuation.
⑧
In countless works, as long as there is a city, no matter if it is a modern city like a steel jungle or an ancient town with black bricks and black tiles, there will always be a kind of secluded alleyway that is specially prepared for protagonists who run for their lives, terrorists who discuss terrorist activities, panicked thieves who don't know where to go, and strange uncles who specialize in peeping at little lolis.
Please don't mind if there is something strange mixed into the above paragraph.
"What kind of urban legend will it be this time?"
Ruiko who was like a cat following behind Kuroko had an excited expression.
Beside her, Flowerpot, cough cough, Uiharu was holding Ruiko's arm tightly, her whole body shaking like a sieve.
"This, this place is so scary no matter how I look at it …"
"Well, it's probably a place where delinquents gather. You sure are passionate about urban legends, Zota-san …"
Mikoto who was walking at the back said in boredom.
The alleyway was secluded and not wide, only able to fit three or four people walking side by side.
There were all kinds of non-mainstream graffiti on the walls on both sides.
Occasionally, there would be some strange blood stains on the ground.
Because the sun was about to set and the street lights in Academy City were not yet lit, the entire city was a little dim, especially in this kind of alleyway.
"It's right in front, just turn a corner and it'll be there. The spatial fluctuation is getting stronger."
Kuroko's expression became serious.
"What a strange fluctuation, I've never seen it before. What kind of spatial ability is this?"
"The electromagnetic field is so chaotic, it's as annoying as the pop-up ads you see when you climb over the wall to watch Celestial Empire's Xiyangyang (not a typo). And it's the kind that can't be closed …"
Blue electric arcs occasionally appeared on Mikoto's forehead.
Speaking of which, Sis Cannon climbed over the wall to watch Celestial Empire's Xiyangyang (not a typo). Aren't you going to complain?
After turning a corner, Sis Cannon and her girls met Ahem Ahem Ahem Ahem. They met a monster at the corner.
There was a dead end in front.
It was dark and inconspicuous just like the other alleyways they passed by before.
However, the space in this alleyway was violently twisting, the surrounding light was being sucked in by the twisting point.
In an instant, Mikoto stepped forward and put up an electromagnetic barrier.
"Sis, Onee-sama!"
"Danger, Kuroko!"
Mikoto frowned as she looked at the twisting space in front of her, the electromagnetic barrier kept making 'bilibili' sounds.
