Chapter 170 (1/2)
A+A-Chapter 170Shoujo Grand Summoning Chapter 170: The mind controlling brain and the sloppy scientist.
While Wu Yan, Mikoto, Ikaros, Astrea, Kuroko, Ruiko, and Uiharu were busy worrying about Hinagiku, there is a big trouble brewing over at Hinagiku’s side.
“What… is that…”
Hinagiku had an officer’s uniform on and her delicate body is being protected by a bulletproof vest. Besides her head, she was armed to the teeth to counter any possible threat.
She had a rifle in her hands and she looked like a Flying Tiger member (Tl: A special duties unit kinda like a Hong Kong S.W.A.T). Of course, these were merely part of her act to cover her ident.i.ty. Her real strength lies in her power as a tier 7. At first, she was quite overwhelmed by her ident.i.ty as a police and a teacher. However, she managed to deal with the issues by herself without Wu Yan & co by relying on her ridiculous abilities and knowledge obtained in Hakuo.
Her plan was to keep acting like her ident.i.ty in this Academy City while looking out for any signs of Wu Yan & company or wait for Wu Yan and the others to come for her. Sometimes, she would play the police act and “help out”.
Today is just one of those days, she was teaching her cla.s.s in the school and without notice, an incident broke out, her superior gave her an emergency phone call.
She quickly donned her uniform and hurried to the scene of action. But the scene that greeted her made her at a loss for words.
The colleagues she had fun working with are all pa.s.sed out and standing in front of her. Yes, they are unconscious but somehow still standing.
The had upturned eyes and they stood like a bunch of zombies. Behind them, a tiny string could be seen, coming out of the back of their head, apparently connected to somewhere far away. The strings were connected to a strange looking… brain.
It’s brain kept in some kind of culture.
“What’s going on?”
She backpedaled and observed her colleagues, confusion started arising.
“What in the world is that thing!”
As if reacting to Hinagiku, the police personnel standing there turned their head rigidly towards her. Their upturned eyes that shouldn’t be able to see Hinagiku is turned in her direction. Needless to say, this gave Hinagiku gooseb.u.mps.
“Hey. You guys… what’s wrong?”
Hinagiku shouted at her colleagues, trying to see if she can make them regain their senses.
However, she’s going to be disappointed by what happens next…
Not only did it fail to elicit any response, they flailed around like puppets and charged her with abnormal looking postures.
Surprised, she aimed her rifle at the mob. But she quickly put them away in consideration of the fact that they used to be her colleagues. The time elapsed was enough for the mob to reach her. She saw one of them opening their mouth to chomp at her neck. She returned to her senses and dodged the bite.
She grabbed the a.s.sailant’s head and smashed it into the ground while yelling at him.
“Hey, you…”
Before she could finish, the mob finally caught up. The a.s.sailants used fists and kick to attack her.
As a tier 7 super, she who could fight on par with a lv5 would definitely not fall prey to such measly attacks from a.s.sailants who had yet to reach tier 3. She held back from counter-attacking as they were once her colleagues. She dodged their attacks.
“What is wrong with them?”
Hinagiku dodged while trying to think it through, she is pretty sure that they are not attacking of their own accord.
“Is it because of that thing?”
She stared at the brain in a culture container. Since these officers aren’t attacking her consciously, it is obvi
ous that thing is controlling them.
There are many small wires connecting the officers and the brain. She comprehended the mechanics without sparing a single further thought.
“Let’s see, what happens if we destroy these wires!”
Hinagiku made up her mind after taking a second look at the wires stuck to the back of their heads.
“Yo, pretty and skilled lady, I think you better not harm the wires, that is if you don’t want your friend’s brains to fry that is…”
The sound startled her but she stopped her attack and dodged another wave of attack by her mind controlled colleagues.
Steadying herself, she looked in the direction of where the sound came from and saw a sloppy youngster with a white lab coat standing beside the culture tank containing the brain. His evil eyes stared straight at Hinagiku, his smug grin made Hinagiku frown.
The youngster clapped his hand when she looked at him, he seemed to be praising her abilities.
“Impressive, to be able to dodge and avoid your friends’ attacks when faced with such numbers, and not to mention making it look like a walk in the park. It appears you are the newcomer cop everyone is talking about!”
