Ordinary Kihara is the Strongest in Education

Wislan said while sitting on a soft chair in front of the large ebony table.

The area outside is known as one of the world's leading blizzard areas.The snow-white scene spread to the sky.But in the room with the thick glass, it was filled with the soft heat of the conservatory.

"But people all over the world expect happiness, then opposition, and finally a clear loser. As 'natural selection' now holds. To say what to do in this situation, it is necessary to establish an anticipation of tragedy ideological."

"There's really no convincing evidence to give top priority to avoiding tragedy. Could you put up a black box or something?"

Sitting on the ebony table was a frivolous-looking blond man.Just from the point of the suit, the images of the old man and the blond man are 180 degrees different.

In other words, the attitude of just getting along with everything in the world may show the blond man's attitude.

Utgarloch.

One of the official members sent by the magical association "Gremlin".

"Anti-Academy City Science Guardians have great power. Whether it's a one-sided technology level, or a group of unmanned weapons borrowed from Academy City. But those guys can make good use of them. In practice? Weaponizing, developing, mass-producing the technology in the brain, conducting actual experiments, and letting soldiers read the operation manual to learn. All these take time. Even unmanned weapons, without the manipulation of Academy City , is it hard to imagine that you can use all your abilities? Is it just enough to install the power supply, or let it hobble with its stiff steps?"

"Even the 'natural selectors' this time around."

Utgaroch said without any tension.

That's right.

It will take time to discover "something" capable of resisting Academy City's superpowers, accurately analyze it, and construct a mass production system.

Wisland seems to agree:

"Of course, Academy City will not give such time. Once attacked, it will be a blitzkrieg."

"Academy City prefabricated 'that' in the cooperation agency."

Not unmanned weapons.

In a sense, more valuable existence.

Cheap and high performance.

But it is a "weapon" that clearly violates international law.

"Is the third-ranked military mass-produced clone? As long as one can be caught, the situation may change."

"The close to 1 individuals were all missing as if it was a good time. In addition, there was also a small fire in their original living space... and the use of pre-prepared strong acid for DNA mapping, The records in the database were also destroyed electronically."

"I'm afraid 'someone' gave tactical instructions through the network between them. There is no physical evidence, and the data is lost. We can't conduct independent research, and the places that expose the evil of creating clones have ended. The fate of being abandoned as an 'unexpected urban legend'."

"Even so, Academy City will not rest assured."

"That's why we responded to your contact. We share the same goal as 'Gremlin' on the point of destroying the unipolar system of Academy City."

"Although we don't intend to use it as a shield for human sea tactics."

"I didn't expect that either. Or, you're thankful you didn't do anything about it. The enemy is even less interested in you."

Wislan fanned out the report bundled on the table like playing cards:

"And the more the enemy doesn't catch a cold, the more information they need to obtain before attacking. That's the so-called buying time. As long as we buy a certain amount of time, we can also switch to a state where we can fight. That's why 'Gremlin' is fine, Not to mention the 'natural selector', and other logistics intelligence work that transports a large number of hollow antennas is also a part of it."

"Can you reach the level of peer-to-peer combat?"

"Academy City has unimaginable technologies and the ability to put them into practice. But they lack resources. We anti-Academy City Science Defenders should widely publicize our 'success' and forcibly involve a wide area of ​​the world.. ... The depletion of resources and food is the best way to stop the war from continuing."

"A fictional intelligence war without a substance?"

Utgaroki seemed to smile happily:

"It's a development that I like. That's why~ I came here."

"I'm doing it myself, but it's not what I expected. I hate digital wars that don't have a body. If you raise food prices, you will starve the real people."

Utgaroch shrugged.He's not a specialist in this area, so he's not too keen on so-called digital warfare.

"But you seem to know your strengths and weaknesses better than everyone else. That's a pretty good thing."

Wislan seemed to take Utgaloch's words very well, and just as he was about to say something formulaic in return, a harsh laugh shattered everything in front of Wislan.

Wislan looked around suspiciously, and with the distortion of the environment, he was not in his soft leather seat.

Instead, it is on the top floor of the high-rise hotel that I often use.

On the floor of this vast space where books pile up.And he was in a state of lying down.

(what happened......?)

The body cannot move flexibly.

The joints of the whole body were constantly shaking awkwardly, as if it had been cooled for a long time in the refrigerator.

then.

An unfamiliar, loud voice stimulated Wislan's consciousness.

"Ah~ ah~ ah~ ah. No, it can't work, it can't work. It's rare that I took the time to carefully adjust the details, but in the end, did you wake up because you couldn't help snickering?"

The voice of a young man.

Unlike Utgarloch.

At least, he speaks Japanese.

"YA~HOO. I'm Kihara Ranju-chan from Academy City? Well~ this kind of thing should have been expected sooner or later, right? That's why? There's no need to explain it a little bit, right?"

Wislan didn't listen to what Kihara said at the big table.

Something nasty appeared in his vision.

Through a window of a high-rise hotel.

In the white landscape of the vast Baggage city, there was a certain ominous crimson light.A strange color was mixed into the scene that should have been snow-white.And it's not just one place, the fires are burning everywhere.

Although he fell down and his body was unable to move flexibly, Vislan still clenched his teeth and shouted:

"You did, what? What the hell happened here!?"

"Hmm? Are you referring to your personal business? Or something else? Could it be about Baggage City as a whole?"

"What I'm asking is what have you done to the kind citizens and ordinary tourists who live in this city!!"

"Oh, those."

Kihara Ranshu hesitated for a moment, and then...

"None of my business? Killed or about to be killed, of course. Can't you see with your eyes?"

The ugly face made Wislan furious, but he lay on the ground stiffly, unable to do anything at all.

He wanted to find Utgaroch, because he knew that he could not fight against Academy City, and the only guys who could deal with Academy City in Baggage City were the magicians from "Gremlin".

Although his neck couldn't move, Wislan quickly turned his eyeballs around to search for something that could help him.But at this moment, a rust-like smell came from his nose, but he knew very well that the furniture in his room was all wooden...

"Are you looking for this guy?"

Kihara's rude kick kicked Wislan and tumbled and slammed into Ebony's office work. The sharp corners of the desk stinged Wislan's nerves, but the shock of the scene in front of him had already made Wiesan Ran ignored the severe pain from being hit in the waist.

That was Utgarok, and the Gremlin magician who should have been talking to him a few seconds ago just fell to the ground.The originally blond hair was now a mass of thick plasma and white goo paste.The original overall suit was also wrinkled.

Judging from the bloodless lips and the blood on the ground that showed some signs of drying up, I am afraid it has been dried for a while...

"Although it's not fun to end the battle too early, the celestial body said that these 'mages' who call themselves Gremlin are not easy to deal with. Especially this..."

Kihara Ranshu doesn't seem to remember the name of the guy he just killed. Seeing that he seriously wanted to recall it was an incomparable mockery for Wislan who fell to the ground at this time.The magician who is backing him is indeed a third-rate person who can't even remember the name of the attackers in Academy City!

"'Utgaroki' or 'Udgaroki' or something. Anyway, according to the celestial body, that guy seems to be 'the same kind' as me."

"'Similar'? Are you a magician too?"

Wislan seemed to have misunderstood Kihara's words, and shouted loudly with an incredible tone.

"What a magician, a magician's. I mean the 'hallucination' idiot."

Kihara Ranshu seemed rather unhappy that the other party regarded his research as a "fraud method" like magic or magic.With one kick, he kicked the corpse of Utgarok, who was already cold, and finally crouched in front of Wislan.

"Then~ let's have fun!! It's a little illegal, but now it's the time for the Russian board~!! Since the 'other people' are still playing, the task on my side is completed ahead of schedule~"

"other people......"

"Ah, ah, don't talk about other irrelevant topics during game time. This is basic etiquette."

Wislan wanted to curse the maliciously filled Kihara random number in front of him, but Kihara random number obviously did not intend to give him a chance to speak.

What was displayed on the screen were five chairs arranged in a row.The faces that Wieslan knew very well were tied to them.And each corresponds to a pistol held in place with a rod, as if to aim at their face from the front.

Corresponding number plates are hung on the pistols.

"Then~ the answer to the puzzle is Wislan Stolajnikov!! Please allow me to explain the rules! Of these five pistols, only one is loaded!! And you can There's only one choice! If the gun doesn't fire, then everyone will be saved. This is a very humane rule! Come on, come on, will Wiesland successfully regain the bond with his family!? "

"What, what...!?"

"You can guess the answer from the mental state of the questioner! You can look for hints from the screen! You can pray for the blessing of the gods and choose one! Or you can choose a family member you hate! But you must pay attention, player Wislan!! The time limit is only 1 minute. If you don't make a choice within 60 seconds, it will be considered as not answering within the time limit. And the 'real guy' will fire right away!!"

"Just...to pass the time...? Academy City, which we thought was our enemy, actually did this...!?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense? Do you think you did something to steal a candy from the store? Isn't this what you deserve? Can you choose it quickly? The countdown is running out. If you don't have a choice, just kill it. It's so boring. If I get angry, it may be the worst outcome of killing everyone."

"..."

(this guy is serious)

Wisland thought.

This is different from the threatening words like sharp blades, it is too refreshing.It seems that for the guy in front of him who claims to be Kihara Random Numbers, it doesn't matter who he chooses, it's just for entertainment anyway.There is no killing intent and no malicious inducement.It's a pure game of luck that just goes with the flow.

If someone is chosen, the trigger will be pulled.

And one of them was loaded with real bullets.

From a purely probabilistic point of view, there is a high probability that everything will be safe, but because of that bullet, Wislan cannot move.However, he couldn't stop there.Once the time has passed, someone will "really" be shot.

"Hey, what about the hint?"

"Go find it yourself."

"Damn!! It's all right. It doesn't matter if the wrist or the eyeball is the price. So give me some hints...!?"

"There are 20 seconds left. It's almost time to count down!? Don't say it? Wrists, eyeballs, such disgusting things, okay? Is the brain still alive in the mafia period of the last century?"

Running out of time.The family will die.Wislan thought so, tears dripping from his eyes like a child.There is no time to think.

Just because of that, he tried desperately at his immobile wrist, and then touched the screen of his smartphone with his trembling fingers.
