Half an hour later, the door to the containment area's rest room was opened.
Hayasaka Ai, who was sitting inside, looked up and saw a girl with short chestnut hair walk in with a document, followed by two ordinary staff members.
"Hello, Ms. Hayasaka Ai, my name is Misaka Mikoto, and I'm here to help you with the registration."
Upon arriving opposite Hayasaka Ai, Misaka Mikoto began to speak.
"Hello."
Upon hearing this, Hayasaka Ai nodded calmly, then glanced at the document in the other person's hand.
List of contained items?
"Due to the special circumstances, your body has been transformed into a vampire by a containment object codenamed [Stone Mask]. Therefore, you can only be registered as a containment object. We apologize for the inconvenience."
Noticing that Hayasaka Ai's gaze was fixed on the documents in her hand, Misaka Mikoto explained.
"Yes, I understand, thank you for your concern."
Although she was mentally prepared, Hayasaka Ai's heart still trembled when she heard the other person's words.
Have I... become a vampire?
Despite feeling the extraordinary power within her, Hayasaka Ai felt only rejection and unease.
Now I've become an anomaly, and in some ways I can no longer be called human. Will I ever be able to return to my family and Kaguya-sama?
"While the vampire constitution grants a person immense power, it also causes them to fear sunlight. Therefore, Ms. Hayasaka, please remain in the containment facility for the time being."
The staff member standing to Misaka Mikoto's left spoke up.
"Now that the entire Shinomiya family is under the control of the shelter, there will naturally be people to help cover your whereabouts and not arouse anyone's suspicion. Please rest assured, Ms. Hayasaka."
The staff member on the other right side also spoke up.
"I understand, I will stay in the shelter properly."
After receiving the registration list, Hayasaka Ai wrote her name and other information on it, and then signed the remaining confidentiality agreements.
Next, the staff will handle the follow-up work, while Misaka Mikoto will take Hayasaka Ai to familiarize herself with the environment of the shelter and their new accommodations.
Throughout the journey, Misaka Mikoto seemed to sense Hayasaka Ai's persistent unease and would frequently speak to comfort her.
"Don't worry, the containment facility isn't as scary as you think. I was registered there as a containment object just like you, and I'm fine now, aren't I?"
It seemed that the reassurances along the way had finally worked, and Hayasaka Ai, who was following behind Misaka Mikoto, raised her head.
Are you also... in the same situation as me?
Looking at the cheerful and generous girl in front of him, he found it hard to imagine that her natural demeanor in the shelter was actually due to the same situation as his own.
"That's right, don't worry. Although it's a special status, as long as you behave well and don't do anything bad, you can still be approved to leave the shelter."
So what do we need to do on a regular basis?
Upon hearing this, Hayasaka Ai asked.
"All I need to do is complete the tasks assigned by the shelter, and occasionally cooperate with the research. It mainly involves drawing some blood and recording physical and ability data, etc. It's quite easy most of the time."
Reflecting on her time in the shelter, Misaka Mikoto spoke with a relaxed expression.
With Misaka Mikoto's presence, Hayasaka Ai gradually relaxed and became less reserved in the shelter than she had been at the beginning.
"Misaka-san, have you ever met the director of the asylum?"
Suddenly, Hayasaka Ai asked Misaka Mikoto a question.
Chapter 74: Misaka Mikoto: The Director is a Good Person
"Misaka-san, have you ever met the director of the asylum?"
Suddenly, Hayasaka Ai asked Misaka Mikoto a question.
Upon hearing this, Misaka Mikoto nodded.
"Of course I've seen it. It was the director who brought me here and had me sign that confidentiality agreement."
"I see."
Why is it that when it was your turn, the director personally took charge, but when it came to her, it was two employees?
After thinking for a moment, Hayasaka Ai didn't ask what was on her mind, but instead continued to inquire about the director.
"What kind of person does Misaka-san think the Director is?"
"The director, I think, is a pretty good person."
Upon hearing Hayasaka Ai's words, Misaka Mikoto pondered for a moment.
Looking back, it seems that after she arrived at this so-called anomalous containment facility, although her freedom was restricted, she didn't seem to suffer much hardship except for having to cooperate with research from time to time. Instead, it indirectly gave her a place to stay in this strange world.
Moreover, isn't restricting her freedom a manifestation of the director's sense of responsibility?
"The director is a good person."
With that in mind, Misaka Mikoto didn't hesitate to give Takahashi Yu a "friend card".
Is the director a good person?
Silently memorizing the information, Hayasaka Ai then followed Misaka Mikoto to familiarize herself with the remaining areas of the containment facility, and finally arrived at the sanatorium area.
"This is a sanatorium area, where injured people recuperate and heal. It's similar to a hospital, but the facilities and medical standards are much higher than those of hospitals outside."
Before coming to this world, Misaka Mikoto had never seen a doctor who looked like Gekota, so the medical area in the shelter was the best she had ever seen.
"In addition, I've been helping out here during this time."
Misaka Mikoto then spoke.
"Does Misaka work part-time as a nurse here?"
"More or less. I'm in charge of taking care of an injured senior here. Apparently, he was seriously injured in a battle with a very powerful monster and can only recuperate here. It seems that this is a task personally assigned to me by the director."
I led Hayasaka Ai into a private treatment room at the very back of the sanatorium.
Pushing open the door, to everyone's surprise, a short-haired girl who looked not much older than them appeared in front of Hayasaka Ai.
Sensing someone enter, Ryougi Shiki, who was lying on the hospital bed, opened her eyes and turned to look at the door.
Feeling the other person's gaze, Hayasaka Ai felt a chill run through her body in an instant, and her senses were constantly sending her dangerous signals.
Fortunately, the other party seemed to know who had come in, so they did not show any malice and only glanced at them before looking away.
"I apologize for disturbing you. I was showing people around the various areas of the shelter when I passed by the sanatorium, so I came to visit Ms. Ryougi Shiki."
Misaka Mikoto said apologetically to Ryougi Shiki, "After all, it's not very polite to disturb an injured person."
"fine."
Ryougi Shiki returned calmly.
"By the way, this is a new member of the shelter, Ms. Hayasaka Ai. She might come and help out like me in the future."
"Ah."
Misaka Mikoto then introduced Hayasaka Ai to Ryougi Shiki, but Ryougi Shiki only nodded and clearly did not intend to say anything.
"Don't worry about it, Ryougi Shiki is just a little quiet."
He said something to Hayasaka Ai, reminding her not to take it to heart.
Just then, a beeping sound came from the clock on the bedside table.
"Is it time to take your medicine?"
Upon hearing the timer, Misaka Mikoto went over and turned it off, then took out a bottle of green potion from the drawer next to her bed.
Because of the need to speed up recovery, Ryougi Shiki, who is in the healing phase, has to drink a bottle of this healing potion every now and then, and Misaka Mikoto, who has been taking care of her during this period, is already very familiar with it.
However, because I was given a new task by Takahashi Yu today, I almost forgot the time.
Behind them, seeing Misaka Mikoto holding a bottle of potion and about to pour it over Ryougi Shiki, Hayasaka Ai's eyelids twitched involuntarily, and she quickly stepped forward and grabbed Misaka Mikoto's hand.
"Well, how about I do it? I do have some experience in taking care of people."
Judging from her posture of forcibly feeding the medicine, Hayasaka Ai couldn't help but doubt whether Misaka Mikoto knew how to take care of people. With this method of feeding medicine, wasn't she afraid of making the person sick again?
"no need."
Before Misaka Mikoto could speak, Ryougi Shiki, who was lying on the bed, sat up and shook her head. Then she reached out and took the potion from Misaka Mikoto's hand, and drank it all in one gulp.
"this..."
Looking at the fracture sign on the patient's bed and the bandages wrapped all over her body, Hayasaka Ai really wanted to ask, "Is it really okay to move your body so much?"
Even if it doesn't cause any serious consequences, it will definitely hurt a lot, right?
However, Misaka Mikoto seemed unsurprised by this.
"Miss Ryougi Shiki is like this again. If she keeps taking medicine like this, it might cause secondary damage to her body."
"It's okay, I'm fine."
Ryougi Shiki responded to this without any apparent concern.
The clone is not afraid of pain, and besides, her body is not as fragile as one might imagine.
After throwing the empty medicine bottle into the trash can and replacing it with a new one, Misaka Mikoto took Hayasaka Ai out of the sanatorium, ending the tour, and finally took Hayasaka Ai to their accommodation.
Of course, it's just a regular single dormitory. Although Misaka Mikoto and Hayasaka Ai are technically considered containment objects in the containment facility, Takahashi Yu isn't so heartless as to actually let the two girls live next to ghouls and dangerous species.
The only difference is that the dormitories here are closer to the training area, so if anything happens here, someone will arrive quickly.
......
In the evening, Hayasaka Ai sat on her bed in her single dormitory room, looking down at her hands.
Although many things happened today that would have shattered the worldview of ordinary people, fortunately, the final result did not reach the worst possible state.
Although they were placed in a seemingly powerful and mysterious organization and their freedom was restricted, according to the girl named Misaka Mikoto, there was still a possibility of being allowed to leave if they behaved well.
Thinking of this, Hayasaka Ai clenched her fist, feeling the immense power within her body. Her seemingly delicate hands could actually crush even steel.
Hopefully, this power will help me return to Kaguya-sama's side soon.
