The Legend of Level 0 in Academy City

Inoue Hideka scratched his head in confusion. Why was Misaka Mikoto acting so strangely today? Could it really be someone else in disguise?

Despite her curiosity, she still gave Misaka Mikoto a hesitant answer.

"Well... actually, I just ran into Haiyuan, and we had a long chat..."

As Inoue Hideka spoke, she noticed that Misaka Mikoto's face had turned even redder than before.

Holding the soda that Inoue Eika handed her, which was placed on her lap, she lowered her head even further, almost burying it in her neck.

"After my wise and reasonable persuasion, he has decided to give up on pursuing you. So, we shouldn't continue pretending to be a couple and going on dates, right?"

"no!"

Upon hearing this, Misaka Mikoto, who had been looking down, suddenly raised her head and loudly retorted.

"Hey?"

Inoue Hideka was not used to the difference in Misaka Mikoto's performance before and after.

"I... I mean... who can be sure he hasn't really given up... so, so, the date has to go on until the very end..."

Having just regained her composure, Misaka Mikoto turned into an ostrich again, stammering in a voice barely audible.

Inoue Hideka couldn't hear what Misaka Mikoto was saying, but Misaka Mikoto seemed to be in an incomprehensible state.

He could only bend down and get close to Misaka Mikoto, trying to understand what she was saying.

As Misaka Mikoto was speaking, she suddenly felt something approaching from above. She could also feel a faint breath between her hair and forehead. She looked up in confusion and saw Inoue Eika's face, which was almost touching hers.

"Ah! What are you doing?!"

Seeing Misaka Mikoto hurriedly move her face away, steam practically rising from her head, Inoue Hideka helplessly straightened up and said matter-of-factly:

"I can't hear what Misaka-senpai is saying, so of course I need to get closer!"

"That's way too close! You idiot!"

"Hehe~~" Seeing that Misaka Mikoto had finally recovered a bit of her usual self, Inoue Hideka smiled.

"So what's next?"

"What are you doing? Shouldn't this be the man's responsibility?"

"Ah~~~" Scratching her head in boredom, Inoue Eika thought for a moment and then said, "How about we go see a movie?"

Watching movies can both pass the time for Misaka Mikoto and won't interfere with my physical enhancement.

"Okay, okay!"

"Let's go then!"

Inoue Hideka opened the grape juice bottle, took a sip, and then headed towards the nearby movie theater.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Misaka Mikoto and Inoue Eika walked side by side, with her head slightly lowered and her body occasionally leaning close to Inoue Eika, as if expecting Inoue Eika to do something.

However, Inoue Eika was preoccupied with yesterday's events and the recent incident with Izali, and did not notice Misaka Mikoto's unusual behavior.

Walking all the way to the movie theater, Inoue Hideka casually bought a ticket for the movie that was about to be shown. She then went to the sales area and turned to ask Misaka Mikoto:

"Misaka-senpai, would you like popcorn or any other snacks?"

"No, I don't want to! Humph!"

"Um...why are you angry again for no reason?"

"Absolutely not! I'm not angry at all!"

"..."

Inoue Hideka was sweating profusely. Since Misaka Mikoto didn't want it, there was no need to buy any snacks. The movie was about to start, so he turned around and headed straight for the screening room.

"Let's go, the movie is about to start."

"Humph!"

Misaka Mikoto snorted and walked past Inoue Eika ahead.

The screening room was already packed with people, as the summer vacation was about to end and the students of Academy City were having a blast during the last two days of summer vacation.

Inoue Hideka specifically requested a seat in the last row on the side, as the lighting in the last row is relatively dim compared to the front, making it easier to concentrate.

Sitting next to Misaka Mikoto, Inoue Hideka noticed that Misaka Mikoto's expression was still somewhat subtle, so he wisely didn't reply.

After waiting quietly until the movie started, Inoue Hideka decisively closed her eyes and began to focus on strengthening her thighs.

This is a romantic love story, and Misaka Mikoto, who is in her adolescence, watched it with great focus.

When I saw something touching, I even put myself in the characters' shoes, and my eyes welled up with tears.

When she saw the male and female protagonists, who had finally gotten together, passionately kissing, Misaka Mikoto blushed and secretly glanced at Inoue Hideka to the side.

However, this one look was enough to drive Misaka Mikoto mad.

In Misaka Mikoto's eyes, this clueless fake boyfriend is currently sleeping.

His brows furrowed instantly into a cross shape, and lightning crackled across his forehead as he struck Inoue Hideka with a snap.

"what!"

Inoue Hideka was suddenly electrocuted and, in surprise, immediately lost her voice.

"What were you doing during the movie?!"

Misaka Mikoto, her face flushed, roared angrily.

When Inoue Hideka opened her eyes, she found that everyone in the front seats of the screening room had turned to look at her.

Some people were even whispering in not-so-quiet voices.

"Wow! Dude, you've got guts! How about having sex in the movie theater?"

"Ugh! That's a pervert!"

"How disgusting!"

"How could he do such a terrible thing to his girlfriend while she was watching a movie? That girl is so pitiful!"

As Inoue Hideka listened to the increasingly worse discussions, she felt as if the world around her was collapsing.

"Huh? What's going on?!"

Could it be that my scream just now was mistaken for... you know?

Furthermore, Misaka Mikoto's subsequent statement further confirms the fact that she committed a perverted act.

Isn't that perverted?

Chapter 138 Props

"Ugh~~ I can't take it!"

Inoue Hideka screamed in frustration and ran out of the screening room, completely ignoring Misaka Mikoto's shouts behind her.

"call……"

After running out of the movie theater in one breath, Inoue Hideka finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Being seen as a pervert must be incredibly stressful. I wonder how Shirai Kuroko could bear the strange looks from her friends when she was wearing a revealing swimsuit.

Sure enough, only a true psychopath could act like nothing happened.

Hey! Why did you suddenly run out like that?!

Misaka Mikoto chased after them from behind, her face bearing a strange expression, as if she were enduring something.

"It's all your fault! Why did you suddenly start flirting with me?!"

"Pfft! Hahaha! You're a pervert~~ Hahaha~~"

Upon hearing this, Misaka Mikoto finally couldn't hold back her laughter and burst into unrestrained laughter.

"Hey! Have you forgotten... who my perverted object is?"

"Well……"

Misaka Mikoto's laughter stopped abruptly, as if someone had grabbed her by the throat, and her face slowly turned red.

Thinking about the perverted things those people were referring to, it was this bastard in front of me doing... doing it to me...

"Ugh! It's all your fault! Why did you fall asleep while watching the movie with me?!"

"Hmph! Fine, I won't argue with you. It's already noon. Do you want to have lunch at my place?"

"No... I suddenly want to go to that restaurant I usually eat at; it's been so long since I've been there."

Misaka Mikoto instinctively refused, but after thinking for a moment, she gave what she considered a very reasonable reason.

Perhaps for her, going to Inoue Hideka's house for a meal meant that this rare time alone was coming to an end.

------------

At Josep Ph's restaurant, Misaka Mikoto led the reluctant Inoue Eika into the restaurant they frequented.

"welcome!"

The waiter's standard greeting rang out, but neither Inoue Hideka nor Misaka Mikoto were in the mood to pay any attention to him.

because……

Just inside the door, by the window, sat two very beautiful girls who were not unfamiliar to either Misaka Mikoto or Inoue Eika.

She was a petite blonde girl wearing a beret, a burgundy plaid shirt, and a mini skirt.

And a young woman with brown hair, wearing a green knee-length dress and white casual shorts, with a slender figure and elegant movements, exuding the air of a young lady from a wealthy family.

At this moment, the girl in the beret had a cheerful smile on her face and was talking to the girl with brown hair sitting opposite her.

"Forehead!"

Inoue Hideka broke out in a cold sweat, realizing he had unexpectedly run into the 'props' team at this restaurant for the second time.

Although it is known that the 'Gadgets' quartet also has a habit of eating at this restaurant, it seems that Misaka Mikoto only encountered them at this restaurant once in the original work.

I actually ran into him a second time.

Of course, it might also be because of the time Misaka Mikoto encountered them, and the trouble she got from Shirai Kuroko and Frenda, that Mugino Shizuri was afraid to come to this restaurant again.

After all, being exposed in public for liking to wear sexy lingerie and having her breasts flaunted by Frenda, Mugino Shizuri is a young lady from a wealthy family. After experiencing something like this, how could she still have the face to come to this restaurant again?
