There is a deep darkness in this city.
But that doesn’t mean there is no light in this city.
"We should go, Flanda."
"elder brother!"
Entering the room, I greeted Flanda, who was packing her things. But basically nothing, she was sent here from the battlefield, and she had no belongings with her. Her sister Fremea ran over when she saw Li Mo standing at the door, and threw herself on him.
"Aren't you worried that I won't be able to catch you?"
"Brother will definitely catch me!"
Fremea was confident in her brother.
Holding the little girl to his chest, Li Mo said to Flanda: "I have found a house, let's go, Flanda."
"Oh, oh!"
On October 20th, Flanda was discharged from the hospital.
There was a line of words on the medical record written by the Ghost Chaser: "The patient was perfectly treated before being admitted to the hospital."
Although Li Mo's healing magic is not very good, it is very easy to maintain life.
The new home is in the seventh school district. Among the twenty-three school districts in Academy City, Li Mo is most familiar with this school district. The high school where Kamijou Touma is studying and the Tokiwadai Academy where Misaka Mikoto is studying are both in this school district.
Franda was very familiar with the Seventh District. She had many friends scattered throughout the Academy City. At the same time, as an Anbu member, she had to travel back and forth among the twenty-three districts. After a few visits, she became very familiar with them.
Coming out of the hospital, Franda gently touched her abdomen with her hand. That was the place where she was injured by Mai Ye Shenli two days ago. Half of her lower abdomen was empty, and even her intestines flowed out. If it weren't for the amulet that blocked the first attack and gave her time to react to the second attack, she would have been cut in half.
That scene of being cut in half appeared on me.
Flanda found it terrifying just thinking about it.
I don't know what medicine that Dr. Guatai used to make himself perfectly healthy. Okay, remember, come here next time you have a serious illness! I believe that with Dr. Guatai's medical skills, he can completely eliminate the disease even without taking medicine, right?
"Frenda, what are you thinking about? You are smiling so happily."
"I know, I know. My sister must be happy that she doesn't have to take very bitter medicine." Freya, who was in Li Mo's arms, raised her hands and answered first.
"Really? So Flanda doesn't like bitter medicine?"
"No! I just simply don't like taking medicine!"
"So externally applied medicine is acceptable, right?"
Flanda looked at the young man in front of her. This question was very subtle.
The girl could not help but answer no.
Immediately, Flanda changed the subject: "Brother, are you going to become a director just like that?"
"Yeah? What else do you think?"
“No… I always feel that it’s not very realistic.” The brother whom I had known for only a short time suddenly became the most powerful person in the entire Academy City. No one could describe this subtle contrast.
Flanda is also a person who takes things as they come. She said, "But, that's fine! I also have the support of the directors!"
The girl, no longer naive, deeply understands that even if her organization's "tool" has superpowers, in the eyes of the directors, they are just running dogs and useful tools. Maybe they will not be too cold-blooded because of Mugino's identity, but it still cannot change their status.
However, it would be different if there were a director behind the scenes.
Flanda became proud and held her head high.
"Sister, sister!" Fremea got off Li Mo, came to Flanda, pulled her sleeve and said, "Don't be so proud! This is wrong behavior. As a child, you should be humble!"
"No, Fremea. You should be proud when you should be proud. Giving in blindly will only make people take advantage of you!"
"Humility is not giving in!"
"There is no difference between being humble and giving in."
Two little girls wearing berets started arguing on the side of the road. Li Mo crossed his arms and watched the scene with a smile.
I inexplicably feel like I'm raising a daughter.
These two kids are so cute.
Later, Franda relied on her age advantage to win the argument with Fremea, and she was as proud as a white swan. Fremea, on the other hand, asked for Li Mo's embrace and comfort.
On October 20th, two days had passed since Russia declared war. The atmosphere in Academy City was still peaceful, and students did not attend classes because of the war. They followed the normal schedule.
There were many students on both sides of the street, and it was time to go home from school. The school schedule in Academy City was similar to that in Japan, and classes ended very early every day.
Li Mo, a boy with two little girls, was very conspicuous. But this situation changed after leaving the commercial street. The rest of the journey seemed relatively deserted, and there were no pedestrians to be seen.
Fremea fell asleep in Li Mo's arms.
"Fleur is asleep again."
"Yeah. You guys played very late last night, didn't you? Aren't you sleepy?"
Flanda shook her head: "I was used to it before."
"Frenda, let me ask you, do you think the dark side of Academy City is reasonable now?"
"Make sense? Brother, isn't that how the dark side exists?"
"But I don't think so. It's too chaotic. Every Anbu acts according to his own will. It's like a breeding ground for poisonous insects. The Council's management of the dark side is too rough."
——As a director, once you gain authority, you can see the true face of this city.
Li Mo and Mu Yuan Naogan complained that although this city had only been established for a few years, there were so many shitty things going on.
The Anbu will not disappear. Li Mo knows this. At least as long as Aleister is the chairman, the Anbu will not disappear.
The chaotic situation needs to be changed. Anyway, there is plenty of time, so why not change it?
Li Mo is a free-spirited person.
He felt that the Anbu needed certain rules, so he would do them.
Chapter 356: Mercenaries Released from Prison
Stephanie Gardner-Paris is a beautiful woman with fair skin, long golden hair, a tall and thin figure, and is more than qualified to be a Victoria's Secret Angel.
She is currently in the prison of Academy City, a rare criminal in this city.
The crime was - killing a member of Academy City's board of directors.
Thomas Platinaberg, that was the name of the director Stephanie killed. According to normal logic, she should be sentenced to death for killing the leader of a force. But she sat in prison peacefully.
Before becoming a mercenary, Stephanie had worked in Academy City for a while. However, at that time, she was active as a security guard.
Stephanie yawned while lying on the bed in boredom. She had no idea how time passed in this dark place. She judged the current time by the three meals a day. After the third meal, she could think about going to bed.
stomping on...
The sound of footsteps came in. Is it time for dinner again? Stephanie sat up.
But she suddenly realized that the meals delivered to the Academy City Prison were not delivered by humans, but by robots. How could there be such crisp footsteps?
"Stephanie Gage Paris, right? Please come out with me?"
The person I saw was a blond boy wearing sunglasses and a Hawaiian-style shirt with the buttons unbuttoned.
Stephanie asked, "Who are you?"
"One of Accelerator's ANBU companions."
"Are you here for revenge?"
“No, no, no, how could that be.” Tsuchimikado Motoharu said, “We don’t care at all about Thomas Platinaberg hiring you to kill Accelerator. I’m just here to pick you up on behalf of a director.”
"I killed a director, isn't he worried?"
"He said, you can try if you want."
"Okay, I'll go out with you."
Stephanie didn't know what this unknown director was going to do, but since he dared to say so, she would just follow him. It was much better than staying in prison.
"what your name?"
"Tsuchimikado Motoharu. Don't worry, you and I won't be colleagues from now on. To be more precise, that person is not going to let you become an ANBU."
The dark side of Academy City. Where there is light, there is shadow. The big guys always have some shameful things to do.
"What do you want me to do?" Stephanie asked.
"Guardian."
"Ah? Security guard?"
"Ms. Stephanie used to be a security guard in Academy City, right? It's such a shame for a talented person like you to die like this."
"No, I mean, you know I was a security guard. You also know why I left Academy City to become a mercenary, right? Do you think I'd still like to go back to being a security guard?"
Tsuchimikado Motoharu said, "Ms. Stephanie, you will know the answer if we go to the hospital."
"You should know how I ended up in jail, right?" Stephanie's expression turned hostile. The reason she killed Thomas Platinaberg was because he had placed a bomb in his dense body.
"We won't do anything like taking hostages." Tsuchimikado Motoharu said, "Anyway, we'll know once we get there."
"Okay. If Brother Shashan is okay, I don't mind helping you guys." Stephanie's expression softened. Having lost her weapon, she knew she had lost her greatest asset.
The blond boy smiled and said, "It's great to be able to work together."
He led Stephanie out of the prison and left the place in a car driven by an outsider.
Tsuchimikado Motoharu heaved a sigh of relief and left with Accelerator. Under the guidance of "Dragon", the group sought help from Li Mo. At first, the other party was ready to become a director under the request, and everything was normal until now. But the subsequent development made Tsuchimikado Motoharu, the double agent, not know how to develop.
——Li Mo became a director.
He became a director without any preparation. It seems that he became a director because he wanted to be one.
The only one who has this authority is Aleister Crowley. The ruler of this city has never lost control of this city.
What does he want to do?
Double agents have a lot on their minds.
However, no matter what he does, the director's character and ability will protect Wuxia.
Tsuchimikado Motoharu deeply understands that his only weakness is Maixia, and as long as it does not involve his sister, then all difficulties are not difficulties.
