K424 of the Collapse World

(But...!;...It is precisely because of this that all of this is worth protecting, whether it is you or them...)

The girl muttered to herself in her heart, slowly tightening her grip on the terminal in her pocket. Recalling the promise she made face to face with the black-haired girl in the forest-like stigmata space, Shiris closed her eyes with an unshakable determination on her face...

(Before this world becomes what I want it to be, I can't just end it so easily... There should be what I need now. Before I solve the problem of my body, I have to work harder! Also, it's time to fulfill the promise I made to you, Ji Lin...)

After tidying up her clothes, the girl was about to head directly to the hangar of the Far East Branch, but she suddenly remembered something. After a brief hesitation, she called out to Himeko who had already walked out of the room first.

"Wait a minute, Ms. Jizi... I am so ashamed. I suddenly remembered that I have something important to tell you. Can I keep you for a few more minutes?"

Russia, Unknown Regions...

In an enclosed space that looked like a combat meeting room, a blonde woman in military uniform stood in front of a huge electronic screen, looking at the electronic map coordinates marked on the screen, her brows slightly furrowed.

"Xing, are you sure these coordinates are real? The ruins of Shenzhou... How could such a secret thing be easily discovered?"

Cocolia turned her eyes slightly and looked at the purple-haired girl standing on the other side of the battle map. She asked in a deep voice, with a somewhat doubtful tone.

"Ben...how do I know if this is true? But mom, I don't think that coward Iselin would dare to lie to me...Humph, she told me all the secrets after just a little scare. Oh! Oh, by the way, she also said that she made a deal with the conservatives with this information..."

Xing said this expressionlessly, with a hint of impatience in her tone. She looked at the locations marked on the map and shook her head slightly annoyed.

"More than that...! Mom, when are we going to look for Sister Silis?! It's been several months since we last met, why don't you go look for her at all?"

In the face of Xing's complaint, Cocolia fell into a brief contemplation. The next moment, she raised her head slightly with a smile on her face.

"Conservatives? Haha... Xing, since you want to meet with Shirley so much, how about I give this mission to you? Don't worry, I have a feeling... the Far East Branch of the Destiny and the conservatives will definitely get involved! Then, Shirley, who is under their control, should also be dispatched..."

Listening to Cocolia's analysis, although Xing did not answer, her heterochromatic eyes had already lit up slightly, and her signature cruel smile appeared on her face...

"It's time, Xing. This time, we must not only obtain the ruins of Shenzhou, but also take her back! Then...completely defeat the Far East branch! And those conservatives who betrayed us, none of these guys can be spared!"

326 episode

"Um...how long will it take?"

In the principal's office, Theresa sat on a raised chair, straightening her back slightly, maintaining a slightly stiff posture. She turned her eyes away helplessly, looking at the figure behind her with the corner of her eyes, and asked weakly.

She had been in this position for more than half an hour. Although this level was not too tiring for her, Theresa had no idea why this guy

What exactly to do...

"Don't move! It will be fine soon..."

Following a slightly irritable voice, Theresa sighed softly and had to shut her mouth first. She continued to stare blankly at the sky outside the window, letting the girl fiddle with her hair.

Next to her, a girl with red twin ponytails stood behind Theresa with a serious face, combing the girl's silver-white hair carefully. Her red pupils were full of seriousness. On the table next to her, there were a bunch of hairdressing tools that Theresa didn't recognize at all. The bag thrown in the corner of the room looked bulging, as if there was something suspicious inside.

Recalling what happened dozens of minutes ago, Theresa's mouth began to twitch slightly...

That afternoon, the anti-entropy executor named Frederica suddenly came to her and asked her for a favor.

Faced with this uninvited guest, when Theresa asked her what help she needed, Tesla gave the reason: he wanted Theresa to assist him in completing an experiment.

Theresa knew a little about the identity of the red-haired girl in front of her. She was one of the most outstanding female scientists in the Imperial Research Institute in the last century. The super electromagnetic turbine she invented decades ago has not been fully analyzed yet. She is now an executor of the Anti-Entropy Organization, but considering the current delicate cooperative relationship between the two parties, especially that the other party is currently a physics teacher in her academy, Theresa feels that she should not easily reject the girl's request. At the same time, she herself has also aroused a little interest in this. What kind of surprising experiments will this top-level scientist make?

However, before Theresa nodded in agreement, the red-haired girl pulled her to sit on a high chair and began to search for something in her bag. Although Theresa was helpless about this, she did not express any dissatisfaction. Anyway, she had already decided to agree to her, so it was no big deal to be arranged directly like this...

However, when Theresa saw that Dr. Tesla, whom she had high hopes for, opened his backpack and took out a bunch of things such as a comb, scissors, and a hair dryer, the head of the Far East branch suddenly became dull...

"That... Dr. Tesla? What exactly is the experiment you just mentioned...?"

"I suddenly thought of a way of dressing up that is very suitable for little girls. I will use you to practice it, little principal."

Tesla said this calmly, and came behind her with a comb. He casually untied the hair tie that tied Theresa's low side ponytail, and began to comb her hair with both hands.

"Hey! Wait, what kind of experiment is this?! What is going on? What are you going to do with my hair?"

Theresa's mouth twitched, and she covered her head with her hands in despair, wanting to jump off the chair. However, Tesla quickly hugged her, picked up the petite silver-haired girl, straightened her body again, and pressed her hard on the chair.

Theresa was very strong, but tons of wrist strength could not add to her own weight. Therefore, without Judas, even a weak girl like Tesla could lift her up without much effort.

"Don't move! This is the experiment I'm talking about! And it's a very important experiment... What do you know about a loli like you who has muscles on her head? Hurry up and be honest. This doctor will personally dress you up. What else do you have to complain about?"

Tesla said impatiently, gently brushing the girl's smooth silver hair, then changed his hand to pick up a comb from the table next to him and began to comb Theresa's hair.

"So... what exactly are you going to do?! I've never asked you for anything like this before. I can do my hair myself, no need..."

"Did you misunderstand something? I remember saying that I just wanted to use your body for an experiment... You wouldn't refuse such a small thing, right? Besides, this is a good opportunity to change your shabby outfit. Why don't you thank me? If you keep procrastinating, I'll take Kiana and Shirley back to headquarters."

"..."

Seemingly intimidated by Tesla's strong appearance, Theresa sat on the chair with twitching eyes and frowned tightly. While feeling Tesla's gentle movements, she thought for a while, weighed the pros and cons, and gave up the idea of ​​continuing to resist.

(Forget it... It's not a big deal. As long as she doesn't make me bald, I'll let her do what she wants. But speaking of it... Hum, I really shouldn't have expected anything from these anti-entropy guys... Except for Mr. Raiden Ryoma and Dr. Einstein who are a little more reliable, these guys are really out of touch...)

Theresa sighed secretly in her heart and remained silent on the surface, acquiescing to Tesla's behavior of treating her like a doll. But at this moment, her heart was not as calm as it seemed on the surface.

(Frederica Nikola Tesla...I remember you were a physicist, right? Why are you doing such a boring thing...dressing up? Do I still need to dress up now...)

Complaining about Tesla's behavior in her heart, Theresa rolled her eyes and looked like she had given up. As the principal, there weren't many things she needed to deal with directly. If the red-haired girl hadn't come, she would probably just be slumped in her chair reading comics. If there was something really important, Theresa would never waste time with Tesla like this.

(However, I didn’t get angry even though I was treated so rudely… It seems that my temper has really improved compared to before. If someone had dared to do this to me before, I would have poked your nose until it bled…!)

Thinking a little depressed, Theresa began to daydream in order to kill time.

(By the way, what should we do about the damage that the stupid dragon... Benares caused the day before yesterday? The repair of the school facilities requires funds, and the source of funds... Do I really have to shamelessly ask the headquarters for it? But I have already betrayed the organization, eh! Wait, the headquarters should not know about our alliance with Anti-Entropy, so, can't I just apply for repair funds as usual... Yeah, let's do it!)

Theresa was just thinking about it, and before she knew it, dozens of minutes had passed. She didn't know what Tesla had done to her hair, but the other party's movements seemed very skilled, and she didn't feel any discomfort. Theresa was relieved and no longer worried that the red-haired girl would do anything bad.

It seems that Dr. Tesla might also be a hairstylist out of interest...

"The texture of your hair is really similar to Shilis's."

Suddenly, Tesla's mumbling interrupted Theresa's thoughts. Feeling that the red-haired girl seemed to have stopped moving, Theresa stretched her stiff neck and shrugged slightly.

"That's only natural... I'm a creation of the a-e experiment, with Kaslana's blood and Honkai's genes in my body. And that Miss Silis, who came from the Sirin Project, has a similar genetic makeup to me, also a mixture of Kaslana's blood and Honkai's power. So, it's normal for you to think we're alike..."

Theresa said softly, feeling the gentle hand caressing the back of her head, and she couldn't help but frown. She could feel that this gentle touch was filled with some kind of emotion. This Miss Tesla might have regarded her as another person...

"Hmm... you're right. Three or four years ago, Shirley looked almost exactly like you. Time flies so fast. Before I knew it, she's taller than me..."

Listening to Tesla's words with some emotion, Theresa sighed and chose to remain silent. Although she still didn't quite understand what the red-haired girl wanted to express, she probably shouldn't take the initiative to ask questions now.

However, after waiting for a few seconds, Tesla did not continue the topic. Instead, he left Theresa's side and walked straight to the storage bag beside him.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore... Get up, you're dressed up, go check out the mirror... Hey, wait a minute! Put this on before you look in the mirror. Aren't you bored wearing that nun's uniform you've never changed in a thousand years? Humans are the most typical visual animals. As a girl, how can you abandon your natural advantage?"

"I'm not...Okay, but I don't think there's anything wrong with my clothes. So, Dr. Tesla, what exactly do you want me to do..."

Theresa's voice suddenly stopped halfway through her words. Looking at the white Lolita dress in Tesla's hand, the silver-haired girl widened her eyes and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly again.

"You really have been treating me like a doll from the beginning, right? And where did this kind of clothes come from?"

In response, Tesla looked away expressionlessly and nodded slightly.

"Well, I won't deny it. I was just testing the compatibility of the Lolita skirt with the little silver-haired girl. Don't worry about the details. Well, since it has come to this, it doesn't matter if you help me a little more, right?"

"Well, you don't... really have any special hobbies, right, Dr. Tesla?"

"No...you're overthinking it."

After staring at Tesla for a few seconds, Theresa silently took the skirt he handed to her and walked towards the rest room inside the office...

·————————————·

Standing in front of a floor-length mirror, Theresa looked at the silver-haired girl reflected in the mirror and opened her eyes wide in surprise.

"This is... me?"

The silver-haired girl in the mirror had waist-length silver-white hair that was no longer tied in a low side ponytail to look mature. Instead, it was tied into two perfect bunches on the side of her head, hanging down softly. The black ribbon adorned her slightly curly ponytails, adding a bit of nobility and elegance to her cuteness.

She wore a pure white Gothic dress, with layers of black embellishments on the hem.

The upper part of the dress fits Theresa's petite body tightly, outlining the girl's youthful and graceful body curves, as if it was tailor-made for her...

Theresa stared blankly at herself in the mirror. She had never dressed up carefully since fourteen years ago. The unfamiliar look of herself in the mirror reminded her of some of her past memories as the impressions in her mind overlapped.

--drop

As a tiny electronic sound suddenly sounded, Theresa suddenly came back to her senses, looked at the red-haired girl who quickly hid a mechanical device in her pocket, and sighed softly.

"Go ahead and take the photos if you want. I don't mind... You came all the way to me just for this purpose, didn't you? But I never thought that a body like mine that will never grow taller would become a model one day... By the way, is this dress specially made for me? How do you have my body size? Could it be..."

"Don't get me wrong. Actually, I bought this dress for Shirley three years ago, but she said she didn't like this kind of complicated dress. What a pity... However, it seems to suit you better than Ain. It fits you perfectly..."

Tesla looked at the silver-haired girl in front of him with satisfaction. After hearing Theresa said she didn't mind being photographed, he took out his terminal without hesitation and pressed the shutter button continuously towards Theresa's front...

(Indeed, it's really cute... but it's a pity...)

Theresa didn't pay attention to Tesla's actions. She continued to look at herself in the mirror, but a hint of sadness appeared in her azure eyes. She gently stretched out her hand and touched the mirror. She seemed to see a silver-haired woman in a white dress hugging the girl in the mirror from behind...

(I really want Cecilia to see this... She will definitely touch my head and praise me for being cute without hesitation...)

Theresa thought silently, with sparkling mist flowing in her blue eyes. At this moment, the door of the room suddenly opened.

"Theresa? You are here! I just got a very important message..."

Following the anxious voice, Jizi rushed into the lounge behind the principal's office. However, as she looked into the room, a petite girl in a white dress quietly came into her sight. The next moment, Jizi, who recognized the girl's identity, froze in place as if she had lost her soul.

"What's wrong? Himeko, is there something urgent?"

Seeing the anxious look of this confidant, Theresa hurriedly came up to him, came in front of Ji Zi, and asked with some concern.

"De...Theresa? Is it really you?!"

Looking at the silver-haired girl in front of her who had changed her clothes and became familiar yet strange, Jizi opened her mouth wide, raised her hand tremblingly and pointed at Theresa and asked. For some reason, the moment she saw Theresa like this, she felt as if something in her heart melted. This silver-haired girl who she once regarded as just a superior suddenly became attractive...

Really... so cute! I really want to put her...

Feeling her heartbeat speed up, Jizi's face turned red. She shook her head vigorously, and finally recovered from her almost insane state.

Recalling her previous thoughts, Ji Zi suddenly felt absurd.

(Are you kidding me? I actually had that kind of thought about Theresa?!)

"Himeko? What's wrong with you? Are you okay?... Why are you rushing to see me? Is there some emergency?"

Looking at Jizi with a strange expression, Theresa asked with some concern. When it came to business, Jizi hurriedly suppressed her chaotic thoughts and told Theresa what the girl told her...

"Miss Hillis just told me that she found the ruins of Shenzhou's 'Nine Nether' through some means. Now, she has assembled a team and is ready to take action!"

"What did you say?!"

After hearing Ji Zi's report, Theresa was immediately shocked. She never expected that the "Nine Nether" ruins that she had been looking for for a long time could be found so easily by Anti-Entropy. In addition to being shocked, she also felt a little unwilling...

Suddenly remembering something, Theresa quickly turned around and looked at Tesla, who had a calm expression, and frowned slightly.

"Dr. Tesla, you..."

"Don't look at me like that, little girl. I just received a notification from Shirley an hour ago. I came to find you, on the one hand to inform you of this matter, on the other hand... Well, now that you already know, let's start the combat meeting quickly. Although, Shirley and Ain have already arranged the steps for the action..."

Tesla said with a smile, looking at Theresa and Jizi with complicated expressions, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes.

"Okay, don't just stand there. I think you are also interested in what Shenzhou left behind. As long as we work together,

If we work together, we will definitely be able to obtain the holy relic there before other competitors!"

327 Missed

After the Far East government covered up the truth of the third collapse in Changkong City by claiming it was an infectious disease, Changkong City, which became a dead city in one day, became a hot news topic in the world, no less than the meteorite crash in outer space more than a decade ago. Even though several months have passed, Changkong City, which is still in a complete isolation state, has not disappeared from the headlines of newspapers...

·————————————·

Due to the residual power of a certain "epidemic", all entry and exit inspections in Far East have become extremely strict. Many more inspection items have been added to the security inspection. As a result, the traffic efficiency has inevitably been reduced a lot...

"Here is the Tokyo Daily News... Parents of students at Chiba Academy are protesting again, and the government must compensate the families of the victims of the disaster..."

"Is it possible that the infectious disease BH will break out again?! The national health department will be responsible for this..."

"On June 2014, 6, according to eyewitnesses, UFO activity was spotted above the edge of the isolation zone in Changkong City. Based on this, the relevant departments made new speculations about the disaster in Changkong City..."

"The latest research shows that the outbreak of malignant infectious diseases is inextricably linked to the abuse of modern biotechnology..."

"Shocked! A professor of electromagnetics in China named Yang was exposed for using students for human experiments. Is this a loss of morality or a distortion of human nature..."

In the terminal building of Yokohama Shibata Airport, an ordinary white-collar worker impatiently flipped through the news pages on his mobile phone. He completely ignored the news that shocked the world a few months ago and opened the page of entertainment news.

Time will smooth out everything. No matter how big the matter is, it will become insignificant after being baptized by a long period of time.

The cumbersome security checks have a considerable impact on traffic. At this moment, many people are like him, trying every means to kill time, anxiously waiting for the flight that has been delayed for more than five hours.

People on a long journey rarely care about other things. Even if something unexpected happens, most of them will just choose to watch from the sidelines, especially in the relatively repressive social environment of the Far East...

——Bang! !

At this time, a heavy muffled sound suddenly came from the direction of the security door in the hall. The next moment, the two guards who were blocking the door and constantly talking were pushed away. Two short figures entered the hall one after the other, walked straight through the passage of the terminal hall, and came directly to the boarding gate that had not yet been opened, stepped over the roadblock and walked in. If they were passengers, such behavior would obviously not comply with regulations.
