"Hmm...hmm." Toosaka Rin responded in a muffled voice. She didn't seem to be in a good mood.
In fact, I have been learning Japanese cooking for some time, including the whole set of housework, which was taught by Aoi Toosaka. Probably because her wife has traditional housewife ideas, she insists that a woman must have the ability to "maintain the home" to gain more recognition from the man.
But in fact, No. 17 is fully capable of being a life assistant, and Toosaka Rin feels that there is no need to do so.
Toosaka Aoi also taught her that if she didn't study hard to win Qin Xuan's heart, such an outstanding person would be snatched away by a third party in the future.
Toosaka Rin's inner thoughts were: Oh, really? I feel like Qin Xuan doesn't care about this at all. It would be reasonable if the progress in magic research could capture his heart.
In short, Rin Tohsaka has no motivation in this regard, or rather, she feels that she has a great advantage. Those wild women are just casually talking about sex online, how can they compare to being with her every day? Moreover, she is willing to sleep next to Qin Xuan with her clothes on, which is already a great benefit (she thinks)! Now she is asked to spend more time on this? It’s better to learn magic!
To be honest, Toosaka Rin is actually a genius in magic, but Toosaka Aoi is not an orthodox magician after all, and her vision is not as good as that of the famous teacher in the Clock Tower. She cannot see how talented Rin is. She just knows that Qin Xuan has shown excellent talent and probably thinks that Rin "doesn't need to work so hard" and that a family does not need to have two people who are experts in magic.
But Qin Xuan was an old scientific researcher in his previous life. As for talents, all he wants to say is that the more the better.
"How about this, I'll discuss this with your mother when I have some free time. Some things are not important to me and are not necessary for you."
"Yeah." Great, Rin agreed subconsciously. She immediately felt something was wrong. Why did Qin Xuan's words work better for her mother than mine? Who is the mother's child? She was mad and trembling...
"Creator," No. 17's appearance interrupted Toosaka Rin's further delusion, "Inside the confinement room, the student from Reien Girls' College has woken up."
--------
The solitary confinement room. The ceiling was lit with an uncomfortable white light. In the middle was a table with a chair on each side. The girl was sitting on one side, and the other side was empty.
Asagami Touno pinched her cheeks out of habit, but felt nothing.
She has lost her sense of pain again. Without pain, she has no ability. More importantly... she has no real sense of being alive. Asagami Fujino thought quietly. She lost her sense of pain since she was young and lacked feedback from the outside world. It was not until that night when she used her magic eye ability to tear apart the hooligans who were about to bully her, and her torn limbs fell into the darkness, that she finally felt alive.
But then it disappeared again.
Ah... now is not the time to think about these things. She is not in a free state at this moment.
The door opened, and a 14-year-old boy came in, followed by a floating mechanical girl. The boy seemed to be saying something: "... He hadn't eaten for a long time before he fell into a coma. Are you sure you have the strength to speak now?"
"The creator has injected energy and implemented a simple recuperation plan in advance based on the target's physiological condition. The target is currently thinking clearly, speaking fluently, and is non-hostile."
When Asagami Fujino saw the young appearance of the person who came, she couldn't help but be stunned.
Qin Xuan looked at her, then sat opposite her. He tapped the table with one hand and called up a series of virtual screen windows, including "Asagami Fujino's Basic Personal Information Form (with Personal Medical Records)", "Target Public Place Travel Record (Fuyuki City)", and "Fuyuki City Dead Apostle Attack Report on ■ Month ■ Day·Suspect List".
"......?!" What is this? Looking at the sci-fi scene, many small question marks popped up in Asagami Fujino's head. Have I been captured in an unknown research institute? Why is there such technology? Is it because they are conducting research on horrible creatures here that they have captured me? ... Asagami Fujino began to use her rich experience in interpreting short films (referring to horror films).
"To prevent some misunderstandings, let me explain first," Qin Xuan said straight to the point, "I am the current head of the Qin family, the magic department of Fuyuki City, and the operator of the "commission system" platform of the local magic family in Japan. I am also an ally and the only partner of the Tosaka family, the manager of the Fuyuki spiritual vein. I am responsible for the maintenance of the ground vein nodes and the handling of related abnormal events."
"..." Asagami Fujino blinked, she understood every word, but it seemed that she didn't understand. This little brother seemed to be quite powerful.
"You don't need to understand these for now. The point I want to explain next is, Asagami Fujino, where were you at this moment last night?"
Asagami Fujino began to think about what happened yesterday. She went to school, attended classes, went home from get out of class, and was done with school just like usual yesterday... Hey, what did she do after school?
She tried hard to recall all the details of yesterday, the content of the class, the teacher's face, the girls walking in groups of three or four during the break, the school bell... But the strange thing was that it seemed as if her memory was interrupted from the moment she left the school gate.
"…I can't remember anything about what happened after school yesterday afternoon."
But Qin Xuan told her the truth: "You suddenly appeared in Fuyuki City last night, heading towards the Tosaka family residence, and made obvious aggressive behavior towards the Tosaka family members."
"Eh?"
Qin Xuan looked at the other party's obvious ignorance, which seemed to be hypnotized without resistance, and continued: "There was also a group of blood-sucking species that launched the attack that night. It can be determined that this was a premeditated attack. Therefore, you or the people behind you are also suspected of cooperating with the extraterrestrial race."
"Um, is the blood-sucking species... the same kind of vampires in novels and movies?" Asagami Fujino originally thought that her abilities were special, but now it seems like she has entered an even more bizarre world?
"It can be understood in this way," Qin Xuan did not explain too much. "Currently, the vampire incident in Fuyuki City has been handed over to the Holy Church for investigation. There has been no breakthrough so far. They don't know about you yet. If they find out that you are also a participant that night, they may take some inhumane interrogation methods." As a magician, Qin Xuan did not hesitate to criticize the Holy Church.
"By the way, the Holy Church's public organization in the secular world is the major cross sects. I suggest that you sign this confidentiality agreement first for your own safety and freedom."
Asagami Fujino took the agreement in her hand and after reading it, she found that the content was not simply keeping silent about the events of that night, but also included free medical care agreement, experimental research project content and responsibilities, salary and benefits, etc.
"this is……"
"After testing, I found that you have severe appendicitis, some spinal injuries, and pain disorders caused by taking medication," Qin Xuan flipped through the medical records. "I will provide a full set of medical services, free of charge. In return, you need to sign a long-term employment contract with me. Your job is to help me. It doesn't matter if you don't understand. You are not responsible for research. Then there is the salary..."
A complete set of medical services means healing in one click. Not responsible for research means being responsible for being researched.
After hearing this, Asagami Fujino had no intention of resisting. Thinking about it carefully, the other party did not pursue her hostile behavior and was willing to provide treatment. Moreover, the technology here seemed to be very advanced. This would allow her to be "alive" again. What was there to refuse?
"Um... Mr. Qin, I still live in Guanbuzi City..."
"It's okay. I also have a research lab over there. You can work there during normal times. However, the medical equipment is in Fuyuki City, so you still have to come over during the holidays."
"Yes, okay." Perhaps because she had new hope, or because she saw a scenery she had never seen before, Asagami Fujino signed her name neatly and revealed a peaceful smile.
The organization in the other world is really great.
Ms. Fujino seems to have some misunderstandings in some aspects.
Chapter 9 "Talent Workshop", Shenyin
Qin Xuan came to Guanbuzi City again.
But this time he was not alone. He asked Asagami Fujino to have dinner with him last night, and then arranged a separate guest room for her to stay overnight, although the price was that Miss Rin almost exploded again. Then he got up early again today and sent Miss Fujino to Reien Girls' College in the morning.
Walking on the green path that she had to take to go to school, Asagami Fujino felt a strange mood. Although her body had not fully recovered, her mental state was quite excited. Although her magic eye ability was still dormant, her heart began to be full of expectations. She seemed to have a premonition that the future was no longer a day-to-day campus life, but a new hope, a new vision, and a new life.
She glanced at the young man who had been traveling with her all the way, and thinking of the fantastic skills of last night, she was a little curious about the extent of his talents and abilities. Or were all people in the other world at this level?
"Hmm?" Qin Xuan keenly noticed Asagami Fujino's gaze.
Miss Fujino immediately retracted her gaze and looked straight ahead, maintaining the elegant demeanor of a noble lady as usual.
"Fujino!" At this time, a pretty black-haired girl walked up to the two of them quickly, frowning, "Fujino, you're finally here. Yesterday the teacher suddenly said that you were sick and asked for leave for the whole day. Are you okay coming to school today?"
"I'm sorry, Xianhua, for making you worry. But my body has actually recovered. The doctor said that all I need next is a follow-up check." Asagami Fujino responded to Hei Tong Xianhua with the words she had prepared long ago.
But, did “I” take a day off yesterday?
"Oh! That's the best." Heitong Xianhua's brows relaxed immediately. She didn't seem to doubt anything. She looked at Qin Xuan, "Who is this?"
"Ah, this..." Asagami Fujino wanted to deal with it, but she didn't know whether her statement would cause Qin Xuan's dissatisfaction.
Qin Xuan took the initiative to take over the conversation and said, "Hello, I'm Qian Shangxuan, the cousin of Sister Fujino. I'm not from here, but I moved here recently. I accompanied Sister Fujino to the hospital yesterday."
"Hello, Kurogane Hana." The black-haired girl also greeted him. "Isn't Asagami-kun a local? Your accent does sound a bit like someone from Kansai. Oh, by the way, where does Asagami-kun live now?"
Qin Xuan felt that the question from Heitong Xianhua was a bit abrupt, so he made up a sentence: "I am still staying at Sister Fujino's house."
Why did Hei Tong Xianhua's eyes suddenly light up after hearing this?
After chatting for a while, Heitong Hana turned around and whispered to Asagami Fujino. Qin Xuan quietly walked with them for a while until they said goodbye at the school gate and watched them go away.
It seems that the bases of Asagami Fujino's ears are a little red?
------
school.
Declining the invitation of Kurotogi Flowers to go shopping on the pretext of taking care of her health, Asagami Fujino walked to an empty alley, "Qin-kun, are you here?"
"Here it comes." Qin Xuan's voice suddenly came from behind, and Miss Fujino was almost scared.
"Huh... Um, is the lab in this place?"
"Of course not. The specific location is confidential. If you want to enter there, you must have me as your 'guide'," Qin Xuan took Miss Fujino's hand. Hmm? Is this woman blushing?
"Are you OK?"
“No…” Miss Fujino seemed to be humming.
"Don't be nervous. Relax your body and leave the rest to me. Also, I suggest you close your eyes."
"Yeah," for some reason, after hearing this, Asagami Fujino closed her eyes and her face turned even redder.
Qin Xuan decided not to care about what this person was thinking and activated the diving technique.
"Huh, huh, huh!?" Asagami Fujino suddenly felt the ground beneath her feet sinking, and her body began to sink straight down. She subconsciously wanted to scream, but Qin Xuan beside her covered her mouth.
Asagami Fujino felt her body sink completely into the ground. It was pitch black all around her. She had completely lost her sense of where she was. Time seemed to stretch out in the infinite darkness...
"We're here." Qin Xuan said.
Asagami Fujino opened her eyes and found that this was a straight passage with bright lights inside. The walls were mainly blue and white. The entire corridor had no "doors or windows" leading to the outside world, so it was obviously impossible to enter and exit in the usual way.
This underground base was dug temporarily by Qin Xuan. Anyway, he had maxed out his earth magic, so he built the basement very quickly. Even the room structure and decoration could be generated by recording the magic formula on the architectural drawings in advance, and then one-click. Of course, energy was available in advance. If it weren't for the various dangers in this broken moon world, he might have changed his career to become a civil engineer with this skill.
Qin Xuan took her into one of the rooms and prepared to start the project launch meeting. No. 17 appeared beside Qin Xuan as usual.
"Number 17, call the Qin residence study and ask Lin to come in for the next meeting."
No. 17 opened a video conference window in the void, and then opened a huge light screen, which displayed detailed project information.
"First of all, before introducing the project, I want to explain one thing," Qin Xuan saw that Rin Toosaka was in place in the video window, and he started the meeting directly. "The research institute where Asagami Fujino and I are located is officially called the 'Talent Research Institute'. This institute does not conduct experiments under the traditional magic system. There is only one research direction - super powers."
"Ah——?" Rin's surprised voice came from the video window (very loud).
"Rin, please be quiet."
Qin Xuan looked at the side again, and saw Asagami Fujino, who looked calm and even took out a notebook to calmly record her studies. It seemed that beginners were more receptive to such projects? Should Rin still arrange work for the magic side?
"Here is an explanation of superpowers: the mysterious phenomena that we humans often recognize are usually caused by groups of magicians in the other world, using magic as fuel and in the form of rituals.
"And from the file 'Report on the Dead Apostles Attack in Fuyuki City on ■ month ■ day (with photos)', we can see that Ms. Asagami Fujino's Mystic Eyes had no built-in spells and did not consume any magic power. It directly activated its ability to affect reality. Afterwards, a street lamp pole at the scene was visibly distorted.
"It can be seen that although the subject of superpowers is still human, the user of the power does not need to operate magic. We initially speculate that this is to directly affect reality with one's own spirit, causing mysterious phenomena. In fact, it bypasses the current popular magic system. It must be said that this is a brand new field. It is no exaggeration to say that it has opened up a brand new world!
"It is this amazing prospect that brings about extreme danger. Once 'superpowers' develop and become popular, they will inevitably challenge the hegemony of the Western European magic world and even arouse the hostility of the entire traditional magician community.
"Therefore, the first principle of the Talent Lab is to keep the research results highly confidential. The development tone at this stage is secretive and low-key... In the future, we need to carefully select allies who can cooperate with us. After achieving certain results, we can show the world the image of "brain subconscious development agency", expand the recruitment of talents in various places, establish more research institutes, and greatly accelerate the research on super powers...
"The project to be launched today is 'Determination of Basic Qualities of Superpowers'. This project is part of the 'Superpower Mass Production Plan' task chain. The project aims to explain the basic principles of superpower generation and determine the reaction conditions and feedback mechanism from spirit to ability to reality..."
The project kick-off meeting is just a beginning. Formal project implementation is different and is not simply theoretical research.
After the meeting, Qin Xuan took out a device similar to a VR helmet and handed it to Asagami Fujino. "This is a brain-assisting device. You once mentioned that 'the sense of pain has not recovered, so I lost my ability'. I don't think the two are directly related. Your sense of pain should be more deeply related to your mental structure. This device can directly act on your mind."
Ms. Fujino figured something out and said in surprise, "So, my ability can be independent?"
"As long as your spirit is not broken." Qin Xuan pointed to his head.
The so-called brain-assisting device is not a technological product, but a secret method from the Immortal Book: Refining the Spirit, which was originally used to refine human puppets, that is, to impose a continuous mental imprint on the target, affect the original owner's mind, and finally form a "seed", and then you can issue orders at will. Qin Xuan removed the "seed" part of the secret method, so the incomplete version of the secret method became a long-term mental suggestion, which only made the recipient's brain area develop imperceptibly as instructed by the caster.
This kind of mental command is not omnipotent, and it is still questionable how much effect it can have on ordinary people. Asagami Fujino herself is a person with an abnormal mental structure and her abilities have been awakened before, so the difficulty of the experiment is greatly reduced.
However, considering that if this technology continues to be improved and its effects enhanced in the future, it will inevitably be popularized and become a necessary item for the transformation of people with special abilities, Qin Xuan decided to name it "Divine Sound".
Chapter 10: "Original Stone Ability Users" and the Soul-raising Method
"How do you feel? The signal has been connected. If there is no problem, I will start."
Asagami Fujino couldn't see outside because of the device she was wearing. She only heard a familiar boy's voice and then nodded.
After about one or two seconds, Asagami Fujino felt a series of long and strange audio frequencies entering her mind, followed by a fever in her head and a gradually increasing burning sensation. After a few more seconds, her consciousness gradually blurred...
"Snap." With a crisp sound, Fujino Asagami suddenly regained consciousness. She then discovered that the device on her head had been removed at some point.
Qin Xuan asked about the situation, and Asagami Fujino said that there were no adverse reactions at present. No. 17 on the side was automatically recording the experimental process.
"The next step is to test your abilities. If nothing goes wrong, your abilities should have 'awakened' again. We just need to determine to what extent they have awakened."
The ability experiment was in another room, and the process went smoothly. Asagami Fujino perfectly displayed the ability to distort space through vision, and it was smooth and free without any stagnation. However, at the end of the experiment, there was a small episode.
"You said you 'saw' it in the next room?"
"Yes, yes. Originally, when I used Distortion, I had to focus my sight on the object first. But when I didn't activate Distortion and just looked at the wall, the wall seemed to quickly become transparent and then disappeared...?"
"Focus your sight, don't 'distort' it, and try to see if you can see farther."
"Ok!"
The data of Asagami Fujino's "new ability" came out soon. The maximum range of vision that could penetrate obstructions reached 1 kilometer, which was comparable to the distance when Qin Xuan first possessed spiritual awareness.
"No. 17, has the data analysis of 'Divine Sound' been completed? How much influence will it have on the birth of new abilities?"
"Answer: Due to the lack of a control experiment, we can only conclude that the 'divine sound' has specially tuned the brain and has a promoting effect on the ability of the ability user. It is preliminarily speculated that the physical connection structure of brain neurons has undergone beneficial changes."
"Stop the experiment tomorrow and just make observations and records," Qin Xuan ordered. "The day after tomorrow, check to see if there are any changes. We'll decide whether to continue the experiment then."
