Two chapters today, 14 chapters owed so far. (Aqua looks up at the sky) The stars in the sky look delicious...

227 Aleister? He fell down.

When the group arrived at the hospital, they found it incredibly busy.

It seemed that all the beds were full. Inside the hospital lobby, there were rows of simple blankets on which lay unconscious students.

The doctors and nurses were clearly overwhelmed. Many students wearing disciplinary committee armbands, and even ordinary students in various school uniforms, were also constantly busy helping the nurses take care of the patients, seemingly as volunteers.

The scene left everyone dumbfounded. Index, who had just woken up, discovered Kanzaki Kaori and Stiyl, who had been trying to capture her. She immediately ran to Kamijou Touma's side, hugged him around the waist, and looked terrified.

This put Kanzaki Kaori and Stiyl in an awkward position. They did remember that they were going to capture Index, but they had forgotten why they wanted to capture Index and what they would do with her.

Therefore, all they need to do now is help Index save her life and erase her memories.

As for the green-hatted man on the other side... oh no, the green-haired man, he was completely ignored. After all, he had even forgotten his own Golden Grand Evolution Technique; all that remained in his mind was the thought of saving Index.

However, Aureos wasn't exactly destitute in Academy City. Although he didn't know how he controlled Misawa Academy, he was now at least a president-level figure with some influence.

Of course, the fate of Himegami Akisa, the girl who has not yet appeared in Misawa Academy, has also changed. She has completely forgotten her past as a vampire slayer, and since there are no vampires in Academy City, she will probably never trigger this ability in her life.

Meanwhile, Himegami Akisa, already somewhat confused, has become even more dazed and foolish after losing her past. At this point, Himegami Akisa needs to encounter someone who can capture her attention in order to be saved.

As for who this person is?

Perhaps it won't be Touma Kamijou anymore, but Aureolus?

"Any of you guys injured?"

Finally, a nurse, wiping the sweat from her brow, had a brief respite and came over to Touma and the others. She looked at their embarrassed expressions with suspicion and asked, "Is anyone sick or injured?"

Touma Kamijou wanted to suggest that the hospital check up Index's condition, but seeing the situation in the hospital, he didn't know how to phrase it. The nurse glanced at the group for a few seconds, then seemed to understand, and said, "Are you here to seek refuge?"

"Ah...yes!"

Touma Kamijou quickly replied, since he was the only one from Academy City. Stiyl and the other three had forgotten their past, so they had no choice but to let Touma Kamijou take the lead.

"Ah, I see..."

The nurse sighed and said, "But as you can see, there's really no space here right now. Let's go to the small garden next to the inpatient department; there's still room there."

"If you need food and water, you can ask..."

Before the nurse could finish speaking, her expression suddenly changed, because two military jeeps stopped at the hospital entrance, and then a dozen soldiers dressed in camouflage uniforms, wearing combat helmets, military goggles, and carrying assault rifles filed out of them.

The only slightly incongruous thing was that these soldiers were all the same height and build, with a few strands of brown hair peeking out from under their helmets, and judging from their pretty chins, they were all women.

However, compared to the fear of being surrounded by soldiers, no one paid attention to these details anymore.

Even more surprisingly, the last person to get off the vehicle was Misaki Shokuhou, who had also changed into camouflage military uniforms, but without a helmet and military goggles. Her long golden hair, beautiful face, and distinctive starry eyes instantly attracted everyone's attention.

"Kamijo Touma?"

Misaki Shokuhou looked at Touma Kamijou with Index with some surprise, since in the original story, Touma Kamijou and Index never sought help from the hospital.

However, now that Academy City has become like this, the original plot is long gone.

"You know me?"

Kamijou Touma stared in astonishment at Shokuhou Misaki. How did this beautiful female officer know him? Before Kamijou Touma could think further, he screamed in pain.

A creature named Index opened its gaping maw and bit down on Touma Kamijou's head with its sharp teeth.

"puff--"

Misaki Shokuhou laughed heartily, then looked at the two playfully fighting and said softly, "It's fine if you don't remember me. Besides, looking at you now, you seem quite nice."

"Also, I can tell you some news."

Misaki Shokuhou raised her voice and said, "Index's collar is no longer effective. The power of magic has completely lost its meaning in Academy City. Both the collar and the Automatic Memory are now just decorations. You can rest assured."

"As long as you are in Academy City, your Index is completely free. No one from the magic side will bother you anymore. Enjoy this hard-won freedom."

"Well... although it has cost you, the womanizer, your future in picking up women, is it a blessing or a curse?"

After saying that, ignoring the surprised and puzzled looks from Touma and the others, Misaki Shokuhou walked towards the hospital director and other leaders who had rushed over.

Stiyl and Kanzaki Kaori originally wanted to chase after Index because Misaki Shokuhou knew about her, but they were stopped by the cold muzzles of the Misaka Sisters' guns.

"Please be mindful of your actions," the Misaka Sisters' voices were already somewhat cold, but now, due to their aloof attitude, this coldness became even more pronounced. "As per the Chairman's orders, Academy City is under martial law. We are responsible for protecting everyone's safety."

“If you take any actions that go too far, we will assess your threat level and impose sanctions.”

Having lost their powers, Stiyl and Kanzaki Kaori showed no impulsiveness in the face of gunfire. Their biggest concern was Index's condition; they had no idea what the magic side was.

Then, everyone's eyes turned to Index. Could it be that Index was really alright?

Compared to the anxiety of Touma and his group, the ordinary people who were initially nervous about the fully armed Misaka Sisters entering breathed a sigh of relief and even showed expressions of relief as they watched the Misaka Sisters begin guarding the entrance and helping the nurses treat the wounded.

Soldiers can be nerve-wracking, but when in danger, soldiers who come to protect everyone on the chairman's orders become a source of comfort and support.

"Hello, I am the director of this hospital. I wonder if you have all the necessary paperwork for your actions?"

Misaki Shokuhou smiled slightly, took out the complete document and handed it to the old director. The old director and several management personnel behind him quickly looked at it, and their faces showed surprise.

"The chairman...has been replaced?"

“That’s right,” Misaki Shokuhou said with a malicious smile, “After all, the chairman is getting old and likes to do handstands. As a result, he lost his strength and fell and hit his head. Now he has broken his neck and is in a vegetative state.”

Misaki Shokuhou maliciously fabricated reasons for Aleister's abdication, since Aleister had already left Academy City and it was unlikely that she would see him again anytime soon.

Besides, even if Aleister is really angry, Misaki Shokuhou can just hide behind Momo, right?

"But please rest assured, the former chairman left a will that Ms. Jiang Lihua should serve as the new chairman, and she is currently acting as chairman. After the collective approval of all the directors, she will officially take over the chairmanship."

"Now, the matter is urgent, so please begin to act according to our instructions. You may use your own means to investigate the authenticity of our orders and the reliability of our actions."

The old dean hesitated for a few seconds, then said, "Excuse me, but this is a very important matter. Please allow me to examine it."

After speaking, the old dean returned to his office, accessed the confidential network using his personal computer, and then used his security level to verify the reliability of the commands in the document provided by Misaki Shokuhou. He immediately received a definite answer.

Although the old dean didn't know why Academy City was in such chaos, he was relieved to finally have someone backing his hospital up.

The old hospital director wasn't afraid of having too many patients; he figured everyone could just work overtime. But once the unrest outside spread into the hospital, it would be impossible to control.

Misaki Shokuhou, who was observing the thoughts of the former dean and hospital leaders from afar, revealed a slight smile. Since no one here had any doubts, then she could consider it another victory for herself.

In reality, the orders provided by Misaki Shokuhou were essentially fake, since even Jiang Lihua, the acting chairperson of Academy City, was a fake.

However, sometimes it is not so easy to distinguish between truth and falsehood.

Although the order was fake, under the overwhelming power of Uiharu Kazari's abilities and the power of Valhalla's quantum computer, almost all of Academy City's advanced network fell into Uiharu Kazari's hands. The person who just confirmed the authenticity of the information for the old dean was not the Academy City high-level official he had imagined, but Uiharu Kazari.

Of course, Uiharu Kazari's skills are not invincible in Academy City. If someone can access the tree-shaped design blueprints, Uiharu Kazari probably won't be able to do anything about it.

However, only Aleister's direct command can activate the tree-shaped design blueprint. At present, although the tree-shaped design blueprint is powerful, it is obediently in a standby state. As a result, with the support of quantum technology, Kazari Hatsuharu has become a boss-level figure in the Academy City network.

Even if Haruharu Kazari couldn't suppress all the techies in Academy City by herself, she could still manage to physically and cyber-isolate those with the authority to issue orders, working with Shokuhou Misaki.

Hospitals, as essential public facilities, were one of the targets of Misaki Shokuhou and Kazari Uiharu, and this hospital was just the beginning.

228 It's time to forgive myself.

"Big sister, you went too far!"

Shirai Kuroko covered her face as she looked at the group of people lying on the ground in front of her, each with wisps of smoke rising from their bodies, and she could vaguely smell the aroma of roasted meat.

If it weren't for everyone groaning in pain, Shirai Kuroko would probably be trying to escape the crime scene with Misaka Mikoto right now, instead of trying to persuade her.

"Also, my dear sister, you've seemed rather down yesterday and today. Did something upset you?"

As she spoke, Shirai Kuroko moved closer to Misaka Mikoto, gently putting her arm around Misaka Mikoto's shoulder, a knowing smile playing on her lips, and said, "Onee-sama has become a Heroic Spirit now, which means that Onee-sama didn't come home last night, was it with Momo...?"

"oops!"

Kuroko Shirai's attempt to sow discord between Misaka Mikoto and Shirai at this moment will only earn her a sharp rebuke from Misaka Mikoto. Misaka Mikoto is already unhappy because of Mo Mo's matter, and Kuroko Shirai just happens to bring up the very thing she doesn't want to talk about.

"Big sister is shy!"

However, Shirai Kuroko showed no remorse whatsoever. She scratched her head, her smile becoming even stranger, her face turning red, and she was breathing heavily through her nostrils.

"Big sister, Kuroko knows that you and Momo must have had a deep conversation, right? If that's the case, then how about you consider going with Kuroko next time?"

"I know, Hei Zi knows everything. Although my older sister seems shy, she will definitely be captivated by Mo Mo's methods. I can imagine her shyness, hear her panting, and feel her budding breasts..."

“Good luck, good luck!”

This time, Misaka Mikoto didn't just give Shirai Kuroko a flick on the forehead; she unleashed a bolt of lightning, sending Shirai Kuroko to join the ranks of those lying dead on the ground.

"Really..."

Misaka Mikoto glanced at Shirai Kuroko on the ground and said, "You're always thinking about things like this. You really are a perverted Kuroko. Even if your life has changed, it can't change your perverted nature."

"Give up. Even if we were to get intimate, it would only be with Mo Mo. As for a pervert like you... forget about it!"

Ignoring Shirai Kuroko's despairing gaze, Misaka Mikoto took small steps away, muttering to herself as she went, "Besides, don't even mention family. I don't know if I'll be hated, after all, my hands are stained with his blood..."

Misaka Mikoto felt that the temperature and touch on her hands still made her tremble, and the smell of Momo's blood seemed to linger for a long time, causing Misaka Mikoto's breathing to gradually become erratic.

"Mo Mo...are you alright?"

"At least we've escaped the worst of the situation, but we can't move around for the time being."

As if she could hear Misaka Mikoto's thoughts from afar, Shokuhou Misaki sent a quantum communication message to Misaka Mikoto, saying, "Do you want to see Mo Mo's current situation? As per my advice, it's better if you don't watch, after all, it's a bit tragic."

Misaka Mikoto's breath hitched, and she said without hesitation, "I want to see!"

"No matter what Mo Mo has become, it's all my fault. If I don't even have the courage to look at her, how can I face Mo Mo in the future?"

"Is that so..."

Misaki Shokuhou sighed softly and said, "Logically speaking, I shouldn't have shown this to you. Although Momo didn't say it explicitly, he definitely didn't want you to see him like this."

After saying that, Misaki Shokuhou sent the scene she had just witnessed to Misaka Mikoto, whose body stiffened as she had been taking small steps.

Without words or actions, Misaka Mikoto stared intently at the image sent by Shokuhou Misaki, remaining silent.

I thought you were going to cry.

Misaka Mikoto shook her head and covered her eyes with her hands. She wasn't crying, but her eyes had turned red.
