Konoha's gun sister skin

Chapter 185 Misaka and Sleep!
Darkness, endless darkness.

I don't know how long it has passed, and finally there is a light coming from the top of the head.The cold-colored light scattered from the top of the head to the surroundings, Misaka Misaka finally saw the scenery in front of her clearly.

This is a twenty-square-meter room, which is neither wide nor narrow for a person.In the room, there is a single sofa, a TV, and... I don't know what it is, it seems to be made of a row of glow tubes with glass covers.

This thing made of Nixie tubes shows a row of numbers: 15530.

The meaning of the lonely number is unknown, but when Misaka Misaka looked at the object, a name came to mind: counter.

counter?Misaka Misaka wondered, what counts were counted?Also, what exactly is this place?
Although I don't know where it is, it's not dangerous anyway.Misaka Misaka looked around again, and felt a rising emotion in her heart, the emotion was called helplessness, but she didn't know why she was helpless.With many doubts in her heart, Misaka Misaka walked towards the single sofa.

The sofa was very soft, and Misaka Misaka's body sank deep into the sofa, looking at the TV in front of the sofa.If there is another glass of happy waste house water at this time, it will be perfect!Misaka Misaka thought so.

The TV has been checked just now, there is no power supply, no switch, it just looks like a TV, and it even makes people wonder if it is really a TV.Sitting on the sofa, Misaka Misaka stared at the black TV with no screen, and then...

The lights above the head suddenly dimmed, there was a rustling sound from the TV stereo, and the black screen began to light up: first there was a swaying snowflake, the kind of snowflake that represented no signal, and then with a click, the picture began to show up.

It is a countdown from ③, the number of the countdown is circled inside, and disappears clockwise, just like the opening scene of an old movie.After the three-second countdown ended, new content began to appear.

The first thing that appeared were six figures...or six corpses, which were nimble corpses with black rod-shaped bodies pierced through their bodies, which Misaka Misaka was very familiar with.That's right, although Misaka Misaka has never seen the entity, it is impossible for him to admit that it is the Six Paths of Payne!
Judging from the scenery behind Payne Liudao, it seems to be in Konoha territory, because you can see plants unique to Konoha.

Immediately afterwards, the Six Paths of Payne in the picture moved.Among them, Yahiko, who is Tiandao, stretched out his palm, and then... the screen suddenly disappeared, and with the rustling sound of the TV speaker, the screen turned into snow white with no signal again.

The snow white lasted for a long time, and the rustling sound was a bit disturbing.The room was extremely empty, and the only source of light was the scattered light from somewhere above the head.In such an environment, it is impossible to judge the time at all.Maybe one second will make people feel the length of an hour, or maybe an hour will only make people feel that one second has passed.

The sense of time was confused, and after an unknown amount of time, the picture finally reappeared on the TV screen.

The picture is blurry, and at times it seems to fall into darkness in the blink of an eye.The angle of view is looking upwards from the ground, and among the six figures of Payne, only one can be seen, and that is the tattered Yahiko.Yahiko swayed his body and walked into the distance.

Immediately afterwards, the eye-catching orange-red color seemed to reflect the orange-red color of half the sky.The roar of wild beasts came from the stereo of the TV, and something like a tail flashed across the screen of the TV, and finally... the TV fell into darkness again.

This time it was completely plunged into darkness, and the green light representing the power supply on the TV had disappeared.At the same time, the counter located next to the TV, the display part was made of Nixie tubes, and a glass cover was placed on the outside of the counter, and the numbers on it jumped up.

15530 becomes 15531.

"Is that so..." Looking at the beating counter, Misaka Misaka understood everything——

——What is shown on the TV is the picture of my own failure; what is displayed on the counter is the number of times I have failed.

15531 failures... Next time, will it succeed?
Misaka Misaka sighed deeply, and buried her body deeply in the sofa.The light source scattered overhead is getting dimmer, and the surrounding things are gradually disappearing.

Light source, TV, sofa... and finally, in the darkness without light, there is only a quietly lit counter with a number clearly displayed on it: 15531.

The picture on the TV has a beginning and an end, but the middle process is missing.That's naturally because I don't want to know how the process is.If you know the process of failure, then the probability of success next time will probably increase infinitely.

And that's why the process is not shown, because once there is no suspense, then there is also a lack of joy after reaching the end.It's just... 15531 times, I always feel a little tired.

This is probably my mental space, and my body should probably be in a coma, Misaka Misaka thought as she sat on the ground.When I was in Loulan, the reason why my face was flushed and my body was hot was because I was receiving "data".

And the data of 15531 failures is hard to imagine how huge it should be.But one thing is certain, if you show all of them in front of yourself, then the only ending is death, because of mental breakdown.

What I am looking at now is only the 15531st failure, and the previous failure data are all stored in the unreadable depths of memory in the form of encrypted compressed packages that cannot be decompressed.It's like forgetting things, but even so, those 15530 failures don't mean they don't exist.

There will always be pieces of data coming out that, even if not being processed, are accumulating somewhere.And these dissipated fragments finally brought the present feeling after 15531 accumulations.

—I always feel a little tired.

15531 times, if accumulated, how long is it?

It is impossible to calculate, the only thing that is certain is that it is definitely beyond the length of time since the birth of human beings.

A deep sigh sounded in the darkness, and the counter made of glow tubes gradually became transparent.

At the moment when the counter completely disappeared, the sound of birds chirping came from my ears.At the same time, a light appeared again, but this time it was not the top of the head, but a warm orange light, filling the entire field of vision.

——It is the sun's rays that penetrate deep into the heart through the eyelids even if the eyes are closed.

Misaka Misaka slightly opened her eyes, and a vague but familiar figure came into sight.At the same time, a voice of surprise entered the ears: "Little, little Misaka, are you awake?!"

Misaka Misaka immediately recognized the source of the voice, it was the voice of Mr. Kushina.

More than a year after the Loulan incident, Misaka Misaka finally woke up.

　There was an accident, around eleven o'clock in the next update.

　　I have to go on a long trip tomorrow, and the update is estimated to be in the evening.In short, the break should not exist~
