Magical Index: Become a Girl and Come to Academy City

Ryoko Sochi's original intention for the experiment was to develop cyborg technology by splitting herself in two, in order to achieve breakthroughs in medicine and ultimately breakthroughs in organ research.

At this time, Misaka asked, "Wait a minute, you said that this person was split into two and then recombined, and finally successfully turned one person into two people. This is a bit too mysterious."

Shokuhou muttered to herself, "Indeed, this method of separating a person is more like splitting a soul in two. What on earth does Amakawa-san need this for?"

"Soul? There's no need to consider such unscientific magical concepts." Misaka Mikoto said seriously.

"Okay, that's about all I know. Since we knew each other well before, Amakawa-san will definitely be on guard against me. Plus, she seems to have very strong combat power now, and it's related to the ability of the second one, so I have to ask you for help." Shokuhou finished speaking.

Misaka Mikoto clenched her fists, "Okay, I want to ask her about this too!"

At night, the two of them came together to where Sochi Ryoko was.

Along with them came Junko Hokaze, who was keeping watch outside, also to give the two of them the space to commit the perfect crime.

At Misaka Mikoto's polite knock on the door, Ryoko Sochi's door opened on its own.

Fengqin and the others looked into the room, but saw something incredible. They saw a middle-aged man with a bowl-cut hair kneeling in front of Caochi Ryoko and crying bitterly, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

"Eh?" The two were stunned at the same time. It seemed that they came at the wrong time.

Having her consolation interrupted, Ryoko Sochi instantly became alert when she saw the two people breaking in. She hurriedly picked up the pot lid to block herself, "Who are you and why are you breaking in!"

Misaka Mikoto wanted to explain, but Shokuhou Misaki was more direct. She took out the remote and said, "It would be more efficient for me to read the memory."

"Reading memories?" Ryoko Sochi adjusted her glasses, finally seeing the two clearly. "You are the third one, 'A Certain Scientific Railgun,' and the fifth one, 'Mind Mastery!'"

"Hmm..." Shokuhou replied perfunctorily, silently pointing the remote control at the two of them.

But who knew that at this moment, the man with the bowl cut suddenly rushed over, begging with tears streaming down his face: "Great, you are people with super powers, please help me, I am willing to pay any amount of money."

"Ahhh, who is this disgusting weird uncle! Please don't rush over to me so familiarly, Amazon warrior, why don't you come over to protect your queen?" Shokuhou Misaki grabbed Mikoto and put her in front of her.

"Hey, who are you calling an Amazon warrior? Why should I be used as a shield by you?" Misaka Mikoto blamed Shokuhou while blocking the man with her feet.

Then the man fell backward to the ground under the girl's disgusted kick.

Caochi Ryoko immediately ran over and helped the man up, "Captain, are you okay?"

However, the man didn't care about being kicked. He crawled back to the two men and begged, "You are level 5 espers, right? I beg you to help me. I will give you any money you want as long as you help me get the airship back."

Misaka Mikoto discovered the key point: "Wait a minute, did Ryoko Sasaki just call you the director? And what airship did you say? Tell me everything."

But the man was already crying and his voice was rasping.

Seeing the anxiety, Caochi Ryoko spoke the truth on his behalf: "There's nothing else we can do now, so let's put our hopes on you. He was actually the director of our first research lab, but he's been kicked out now."

Misaka Mikoto pondered, "The First Research Laboratory? Isn't that what we need now..."

Shokuhou Misaki elbowed her, pausing Misaka Mikoto from speaking, and then signaled Shokuhou Misaki to continue.

Ryoko Sochi continued, "This evening, a researcher named Kihara asked us to hand over our research materials on soul attachment to her. However, because it concerns the interests and reputation that the director has always pursued, he is reluctant to hand over the half-finished research results to others, so he refused."

"However, that woman named Kihara issued a death threat and sent a picture of the body of a board member hidden in the book. The director was terrified, but also greedy for the research results, so he refused again. Then, in a rage, Kihara attacked us with her men ten minutes later and threw the director out."

Suddenly, Misaka Mikoto interrupted: "Wait a minute, you just said Kihara, wasn't it Amagamiya?"

"I, I don't know. I only know her last name is Kihara." Ryoko Sochi responded timidly.

At this time, Shokuhou Misaki's face was gloomy and uncertain. She thought of a possibility, but did not dare to confirm it.

Misaka Mikoto then asked, "So what happened to the research institute? Was it taken over by her?"

Sochi Ryoko gave a negative answer: "No, the director was afraid that if the research results were stolen, he would not be able to obtain the patent, so he destroyed all the information in a hurry."

"That's good, that's good," Misaka Mikoto's heart finally settled down. She looked at the trembling man and smiled, "How can he be so brave and cowardly at the same time? Haha."

If you say he is a coward, he dared to go against the people who killed the council members. If you say he is brave, he was scared like this.

But Ryoko Saochi suddenly added, "Don't be too happy yet. The director was able to destroy the original data because there was a backup of the data on another airship."

Misaka Mikoto gasped, "Hiss~ So is this airship you mentioned safe now?"

"It has been occupied." Ryoko Sochi answered decisively.

Misaka Mikoto's heart, which had been relieved, was suddenly in suspense again. Shokuhou Misaki held her forehead with her hand as a headache arose. The two of them responded at the same time: "You'd better finish it all at once."

"Oh~" Caochi Ryoko responded aggrievedly.

She continued, "That woman seemed to know everything. After the research institute's data was destroyed, she left without even asking questions. She also found the invisible airship hidden high in the sky above Academy City. So, not only the director, but I'd like to ask for your help as well."

"What? Are you reluctant to give up these research results that can bring you fame?" Shokuhou Misaki raised her eyebrows.

Ryoko Sochi suddenly became excited. "No, no, actually, soul attachment is a byproduct of my experiment. I suspect that this method of splitting me in two has created a new soul, so I need to be responsible for my clone. If that woman wants to obtain the soul attachment data, she will definitely attack my clone. I want you to rescue my clone."

Feng Qin and the other person looked at each other. To be honest, in their eyes, it was hard to say whether the soul existed or not, and there were even more mysteries about the clone.

But Misaka Mikoto was not one to refuse such a heartfelt plea, so she immediately agreed: "Okay, leave it to me. No matter if she is a machine with a soul or something else, I will not stand by and watch her die."
