Magical Index: Become a Girl and Come to Academy City

In the early morning, the last drop of dew on the leaves hides in the sunlight, the ladybugs by the window fly out, and the flower stalks straighten up. It is the time of day when all things begin to move.

Tianchuan Gong walked to the window, cleared his eyes, and confirmed the time.

8 month 30 day.

If there is no mistake, Kamijou Touma should be back on this day, but before that they have to discuss the matter of the Last Order.

"Xie Mei, the last work is leaving tonight." Tianchuan Gong looked out the window and said calmly.

Xie Mei, who was combing her long hair, was stunned and put down the comb in her hand. "Why? This child has lived with us for so many days, why do we want her to leave?"

"I say, she is my friend's sister. Isn't it reasonable for her to leave us and return to her family?" Tianchuan Gong turned around and looked at her and asked back.

"Yes, yes, she has a family. I almost forgot about that. We just got to know each other." Xie Mei lowered her head.

Tianchuan Gong felt sorry for her when he saw this, so he comforted her, "It's okay. She will be in the hospital for the next few days anyway, and we can always see her."

Although he was reluctant, Xie Mei had to accept this fact.

Outside the ward, Last Order, wearing a floral dress, held breakfast for the three of them in her hands and listened silently.

Around noon, Kamijou Touma was already taking a nap in bed. Members of the English Puritan "Church of Necessary Evil" such as Kamijou Kaori and Tsuchimikado Motoharu who had been in the ward that morning had just left.

In a corner of the hospital, Tianchuan Palace was waiting carefully with the equipment installed in the room in advance.

Finally, about half an hour later, the door of the ward opened, and a girl with blonde hair, starry eyes and a nice figure walked up to the sleeping Kamijou Touma.

"Oh my god, you're injured again this time, but you're much better than last time. You should be able to be discharged from the hospital in the afternoon. The time we spend together is really short." Shokuhou Misaki looked at Kamijou Touma gently, sighed and said self-deprecatingly.

As expected, Amakawa Palace somewhere saw this and was glad that his judgment was correct. As expected, Shokuhou Misaki secretly came to see Kamijou Touma after he was injured, just like last time.

"Just wait, Shokuhou Misaki, my target this time is you, so be my resource." Thinking of this, Tianchuan Palace chuckled complacently.

Just as Shokuhou Misaki was concerned about the boy on the bed, a mechanical voice came from the room where only the two of them were.

"Shokuhou Misaki, you came after all. I want to talk to you." Amagawa's confident voice appeared in the room.

The voice from a third person made Shokuhou Misaki stand up suddenly. Her usually lovely star-like eyes looked around the room coldly like radar, and instantly locked onto a red dot on the TV.

Amagawa observed Shokuhou Misaki's expression change drastically in the room, and a smug look gradually appeared on his face: "Don't worry, I don't have any bad intentions. I just want to cooperate with you."

Hearing this, Shokuhou Misaki dropped her guard and returned to her usual cynical attitude, smiling slightly. "Amakawa Palace? I didn't expect you to contact me."

With these words, the positions of both parties were instantly reversed. Now it was Amagawa's turn to panic. Countless questions flooded her mind. Why did Shokuhou Misaki say her own name? How could she possibly know me? Even if she did know me, I had changed my voice, so how could she have guessed it?

"Wait a minute, shouldn't I be the one controlling her now? Shouldn't I be in control of the situation in the dark? What's the point of my disguise if someone sees through my identity at a glance?" Tianchuan Gong was mentally devastated.

Shokuhou Misaki smiled without saying anything, standing slowly in front of the monitor, waiting for Amagawa's next speech.

A moment later, a mechanical voice, barely calm, reappeared in the room: "Shokuhou Misaki, how did you know?"

"It's very simple. I can know whatever I want to know. I will pay attention to everything around Kamijou Touma, including the time when he saved you from Chaos. And this monitor is handmade, you are really dexterous." Shokuhou Misaki sat back in the chair and looked up at the monitor like a queen.

Tianchuan Gong felt a chill on his back and asked tremblingly: "Then how did you know it was me? My voice clearly changed."

"This is not a professional monitor, and the voice-changing effect is just a cheap one. This type of wireless device has a very short range. You must be within 50 meters, and it is set up in Kamijou Touma's room. Although I don't know your other information and purpose, you are now in the hospital with Kamijou Touma, and you have had intersections with the Anbu. You are not an ordinary person. Apart from Last Order, you are the only one." Shokuhou Misaki analyzed it clearly.

Tianchuan Gong's face turned green on the other side, and he had to admit: "Indeed, you are right."

"Now, formally state your demands and your goals." Shokuhou Misaki formally allowed the other party to state her request.

Tianchuan Gong took a deep breath and said seriously, "I want to be protected by you as a Level 5. You know I was targeted by that machine before, right? I just want to establish a cooperative relationship with you. Of course, I will also provide you with help."

"But, most people would seek help from the security guards and discipline committee members first, unless you know it's something the security guards can't solve. You seem to know what kind of trouble you're in, and yet you chose to go to me instead of someone as famous as Misaka Mikoto, or other figures or forces. Don't you know it's useless to go to them? It's true that other organizations and forces I know of wouldn't care about helping you, but how did you find me so accurately? How did you know I was the force most likely to help you? My intelligence shows that you're just an ordinary student, without any resources or information from any force, yet you act like you know a lot. How much do you know?"

After this series of questioning, Tianchuan Palace felt that there was no way to end it. He originally thought that the failure of cooperation was the worst case scenario, but without letting anything slip, he was asked questions by the other party that he was unable to respond just because of his behavior of approaching the other party.

A dark glint flashed in Shokuhou Misaki's eyes. "Why, you're not talking anymore? If you don't respond, I'll assume you've escaped, and I'll take the initiative to find you."

Forget it. For now, I am afraid the only way is to treat each other sincerely. In front of LV5 "Psychological Control", even if the other party does not use superpowers, I do not have the ability to trade with the other party on an equal footing.

"Yes, I do know a lot of things, some of the Anbu in Academy City, your faction, the true background of "Chaos" that attacked me that day, some things on the dark side of Academy City, the LV6 Absolute Ability Plan, and the Misaka Network." Tianchuan Palace admitted one thing after another with mixed feelings.

Shokuhou Misaki nodded in satisfaction: "Good, this is the attitude of cooperation. Now, we can have a good talk."
