A certain scientific Saten Ruiko

Just when Kamijou Touma thought he was finished, a sudden sound of breaking air was heard.

Kamijou Touma turned his head and saw the silhouette of the gigantic monster that shot down the plane.

This guy seemed to be targeting Kamijou Touma. After shooting down the supersonic plane, he circled in the air and then rushed straight towards Kamijou Touma.

"So rotten..."

Kamijou Touma only had time to say this catchphrase before the entire crane that hooked Kamijou Touma flew into the air.

"Aaaahhhh!!!"

Kamijou Touma’s body was spinning in the air like a yo-yo tied to a string.

The sound of ripping continued to be heard, and the parachute connecting Kamijou Touma to the crane finally reached its limit, and then Kamijou Touma was thrown out.

Fortunately, he did not fall, but flew into the unfinished building from the window.

“Aa ...

Due to inertia, Kamijou Touma's body rolled on the ground, and even bounced up a little while sliding. The severe pain made Kamijou Touma scream in pain.

Fortunately, he did not hit the wall or anything like that during this period of powerful inertia, otherwise his situation might have been even more miserable, leading to his death before he could accomplish his mission, and he could have directly returned to the resurrection point in the seventh school district.

He finally stood up and staggered behind a thick pillar.

The huge monster didn't seem to catch up with him. Perhaps it thought he was doomed, so it flapped its huge wings and flew away without carefully checking the results of the battle.

"Index... and Misaka, Bai Dewei, Kumokawa Maria, how are they doing? Did they land safely on the ground? Were they attacked by that monster?"

After confirming his own safety, Kamijou Touma couldn't help but start to worry about the members who were acting with him, especially Index. This girl might not even know how to open a parachute, and she is the most worrying one.

Thinking of this, he quickly took out his mobile phone from his pocket. Fortunately, even though it was so exciting before, his phone was not broken.

However, Index did not answer the phone, and there was not even a dial tone. Instead, a female voice kept repeating a message. This was not a message like "The number you dialed is temporarily unavailable," so Kamijou Touma listened carefully.

"Currently, the lines are extremely congested, so in order to prioritize emergency communications with the police and fire department, please refrain from unnecessary phone and email services. If you need to check on the safety of your relatives or friends, please use the disaster-specific language messaging services of each telecommunications company."

After the broadcast, it started again and Kamijou Touma died immediately.

Kamijou Touma staggered to the edge of the floor and looked down. However, just one glance made Kamijou Touma show an incredible expression. He changed several directions, but no matter where he looked, it was the same...

“What…what happened…?”

Time goes back to when the plane was shot down.

Misaka Mikoto's body was thrown down by the plane, but because she often did high-altitude sports, she was not nervous at all, and she calmly grabbed the parachute strap and waited for the opportunity to open the parachute.

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!"

But at this moment, a scream attracted her attention. Misaka Mikoto turned her head and saw a white figure falling down at a high speed beside her.

It was the nun holding the calico cat. At this moment, she was still holding the calico cat with both hands to prevent it from moving.

Since their parachutes were simple in form, they did not have the function of automatically opening at the corresponding altitude. If they did not know how to open the parachute, the result would be a pool of carbohydrates left on the asphalt road below.

In the current situation, it is obvious that this nun does not know how to use a parachute.

"Alas... there is really nothing I can do..."

Misaka Mikoto sighed, then stretched her body and accelerated downwards, rapidly approaching Index who was spinning irregularly in the air.

"caught you!"

Misaka Mikoto reached out and successfully grabbed Index's arm.

At this time, they were less than a hundred meters away from the ground. Even if they opened the parachute now, they probably would not be able to land on the ground before the parachute opened.

So Misaka Mikoto decisively gave up opening the parachute and chose to use magnetism. Although this made the calico cat in Index's arms feel uneasy and struggle frantically, there was nothing she could do about it.

Misaka Mikoto held Index in one hand and attached her feet to the wall of a tall building. Instead of stopping immediately, she bent her knees and slid down along the wall.

Squeak, squeak, squeak——————

Orange sparks began to spurt out from the soles of her feet, and the friction of her leather shoes emitted an unpleasant smell that drifted along the way. Finally, Misaka Mikoto was able to completely offset the inertia caused by falling from such a height at the fourth floor, and successfully stopped there.

While supporting Index and the calico with one hand, he looked around the environment below. Although he went to Academy City when he was very young, it didn't mean he would never come out after entering. He was not so isolated that he couldn't recognize the place.

"Is this Shinjuku Station?"

There were large, eye-catching posters and signs all around, but she had no plans to walk around.

the reason is simple.

"What's happening here?"

Looking down, for some reason, both the roads and the squares were crowded with large numbers of people, so many that it made people wonder if all the people in the country were concentrated here?

There was no place to stand, and even the original road was invisible. No matter where I looked, I was drowned in people's heads.

And it's not just the sidewalk, the motor vehicle lane as well. All the cars ignored the traffic and stopped in place, forming a long queue. A large number of pedestrians were squeezed in the gaps between the cars. This level gave her an inexplicable sense of oppression.

"It's Gremlin..."

Index, who was hanging on Misaka Mikoto's arm, whispered, "Gremlin must have done something."

At this moment, a huge shadow passed over their heads. It was the monster that shot down the supersonic plane before. However, the monster did not attack them, nor did it attack the crowd below. Instead, it flew away as if passing by.

After escaping from danger, Misaka Mikoto couldn't help but think of her mother Misaka Mirei who lived in the city.

Misaka Mikoto held Index in her arms and tried to use her ability to call the phone in her pocket, but she did not get the response she wanted. Instead, she heard the same broadcast that Kamijou Touma heard.
