Shokuhou Misaki definitely couldn't beat Fang Zheng, she was just venting her impotent rage. Fang Zheng easily suppressed Shokuhou Misaki's resistance with one hand, leaving her frustrated and helpless.

Fortunately, Fang Zheng was not a devil. He helped Shokuhou Misaki return to her previous state. Finally, Shokuhou Misaki got rid of the embarrassing situation of running around in a wet skirt, which also somewhat comforted the helpless and angry Shokuhou Misaki.

"…Don't tell Misaka Mikoto about this."

"What's the matter? Because you peed your pants because of my spanking?"

"I was talking about Dolly!"

It would have been fine if Fang Zheng didn't mention it, but as soon as he mentioned Shokuhou Misaki, she got so angry that she wanted to bite him again.

"That brain muscle girl has too much responsibility. I don't want to see her slouching over something like this. Strictly speaking, this has nothing to do with her anyway."

"That's true."

Fang Zheng could imagine that Misaka Mikoto was a person with a strong sense of responsibility. If she knew about the affairs of Shokuhou Misaki and Dolly, her attitude towards Shokuhou Misaki would definitely change. However, Shokuhou Misaki was very open-minded in this regard. Dolly was Dolly and Misaka Mikoto was Misaka Mikoto. If Misaka Mikoto had any reservations about her because of Dolly's affairs, it would make Shokuhou Misaki feel unhappy.

"no problem."

"Then leave this matter to me."

Perhaps in order to hide her embarrassment, Shokuhou Misaki quickly returned to normal.

"If I'm not mistaken, the one who attacked Misaka Mikoto was 'Xiao Mi'. Although I don't know what happened, I think she was deceived by this old man. As long as I have news about Dolly, I think I should be able to convince her. As for Misaka Mikoto, I'll leave her to you, Mr. Fang Zheng."

"Is everything all right?"

Fang Zheng stared at Shokuhou Misaki and had to admit that Shokuhou Misaki was really weak. Her strength was limited to her ability of mental control. Without that ability, Shokuhou Misaki couldn't even beat an old man like Kihara Gensei.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing..."

Having said this, Shokuhou Misaki hesitated.

"Also, there is one more thing I need to trouble you with, Mr. Fang Zheng..."

Shokuhou Misaki's request was not much. In fact, she just asked Fang Zheng to help her solve a problem.

“This is the external brain.”

Looking at the three huge glass jars in front of him, and the three brains in the glass jars that were larger than humans, Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes and said to himself. In fact, this is the core of the Talent Workshop. They used the cerebral cortex cut from Shokuhou Misaki's brain to cultivate three new "external brains". Originally, the function of this "external brain" was to allow everyone to use Shokuhou Misaki's "psychological control". It is conceivable that once it succeeds, this place will become a ghost.

Fortunately, Shokuhou Misaki defeated Saigobo before the other party noticed, and took the external brain into her possession, using it to amplify her own abilities.

But the appearance of Kihara Gensei today sounded a wake-up call for Shokuhou Misaki.

Originally, in order to prevent others from using the external brain, Shokuhou Misaki set up a series of tight blockades, but these were completely ineffective against Kihara Gensei. The reason was very simple. Kihara Gensei used the ability of the Illusion Hand to directly create a resonant wave between his AIM force field and the external brain, and thus easily took away Shokuhou Misaki's control of "mental control".

This is why Shokuhou Misaki was powerless to resist Kihara Gensei.

This lesson also made Shokuhou Misaki completely give up on the external brain, so she entrusted Fang Zheng to help destroy the external brain.

The truth is that Shokuhou Misaki herself has no way to deal with this. The pipe containing the external brain looks fragile, but in fact it is very strong. It can withstand a magnitude 10 earthquake or tsunami. Although Shokuhou Misaki has a self-destruct code, she dare not use it because the external brain is strictly speaking a part of Shokuhou Misaki's brain. If Shokuhou Misaki uses the self-destruct code, it would be equivalent to crushing part of her own head, and she would be completely finished.

Originally, Shokuhou Misaki wanted to use psychological control to swap the "self-destruct code" and "login code" in her brain, so as to lure Kihara Gensei into the trap, and then let Kihara Gensei destroy the external brain. However, since Fang Zheng took action in advance, she didn't have to gamble, so she simply asked Fang Zheng to completely destroy it from a physical level.

Although Kihara Gensei had been tortured by Fang Zheng to the point where he was no longer human and could no longer survive, the theory of the Fantasy Hand had spread, and no one knew whether there would be another Kihara Gensei in the future.

Shokuhou Misaki didn't dare to bet on this possibility.

With this possibility, there is no benefit if you bet right, but everything is ruined if you bet wrong.

It is enough for Shokuhou Misaki to experience the lesson of Kihara Gensei once.

"Okay, it's almost done, time to go back."

As Fang Zheng spoke, he stretched out his finger and spun it. Soon, a spark emerged from Fang Zheng's hand and flew towards the external computers in front of him. In just a blink of an eye, the three external computers turned into a pile of charcoal and disappeared completely.

Fang Zheng watched the external computer disappear in front of him, then shook his head and turned to leave the building.

That night, the dark side of Academy City represented by the Kihara clan was completely destroyed.

Fang Zheng completely wiped out Mu Yuan Gensheng's soul, and he didn't even burn it into firewood, but used Mu Yuan Gensheng's own memory to weaken his soul bit by bit, making him disappear in the endless pain of the experiment, just like a slow execution on the soul level, which was more painful than the physical level.

But for Fang Zheng, his heart was not shaken. Kihara Gensei made a choice, and he had to face this outcome. In Academy City, the children who suffered because of Kihara Gensei were not only Kiyama Haruo's students, but also Shokuhou Misaki and Misaka Mikoto. Kihara Gensei wanted to die early? That also depended on whether Fang Zheng agreed or not.

The hound troop led by Kihara Suta was also wiped out by Kurumi and the others who were driven back. Kihara Suta himself was shot in the head by Reki and was killed beyond belief.

As for the remaining members of the Kihara clan and their subordinates, they all became the aliens' midnight snacks in the dark. When the sun rose again, not even a single body of the Kihara clan could be found in the entire Academy City.

The demise of the Kihara clan represents the complete disappearance of the last living forces of the dark side in Academy City. Even if there are any left, they are just a group of insignificant petty thieves.

As for Shokuhou Misaki, Fang Zheng didn't pay much attention to the situation, but early the next morning, he received a text message from Shokuhou Misaki with only one sentence on it.

"Thanks."

Needless to say, just from this sentence, Fang Zheng already knew the situation on Shokuhou Misaki's side.

There is only one question left.

"Boom boom boom."

Fang Zheng put down the coffee in his hand. At the same time, there was a knock on the door, followed by Ram's voice from outside the door.

"Master Fang Zheng, Miss Haiyuan is here."

"Come in."

"yes."

As the voices were speaking, the door opened and Kaihara Kyono walked in.

"Hello, Mr. Fang Zheng."

Seeing Fang Zheng, Hai Yuanqiong bowed to him respectfully, and Fang Zheng nodded.

"Hello, Haiyuan, please take a seat."

"OK."

As she spoke, Kaihara Kyono walked to the chair, stretched out her hand to adjust the hem of her skirt, and then sat on the chair - the whole process was natural and full of the slenderness and charm unique to women, which made Fang Zheng look at her... and he really didn't know what to say.

Forget it, let’s talk about this issue later.

"Mr. Kaihara, I came to you this time because I have something very important to discuss with you."

"Something very important...?"

Kaihara Kyono seemed a little surprised at Fang Zheng's words. She and Fang Zheng were not as familiar with each other as Misaka Mikoto and the others. Kaihara Kyono felt that Fang Zheng was a benefactor who saved her friend. Of course, the two sides would greet each other when they met, but the communication between Kaihara Kyono and Fang Zheng was not as frequent as with others. So Kaihara Kyono was somewhat surprised that Fang Zheng had something very important to discuss with her.

"Yes, it's about the future of Academy City. I think you already know that I am currently in charge of the position of Chairman of Academy City. In my opinion, the previous chairman's positioning of Academy City is obviously problematic, so I want to restructure the positioning of Academy City."

"But...what does this have to do with me?"

Haiyuan Qiongnai still didn't understand what this had to do with him, while Fang Zheng just laughed.

"I heard that you have collaborated with your advisor and have published several papers in Science?"

"yes……"

Although Kaihara Qiongno was confused, he still nodded.

"Your current research direction is string theory, right?"

"Yes."

"So, when will you be able to complete the unification of the four fundamental forces?"

“Hey…Hey?!”

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Haiyuan Qiongnai was stunned for a moment, then opened his eyes wide in surprise and covered his mouth.

"Mr. Fang Zheng, um... I'm still in the learning stage. The unification of the four fundamental forces is... um... too difficult for me."

"The four fundamental forces are strong force, weak force, electromagnetic force, and gravity. You and Misaka Mikoto control one of them respectively... Have you ever thought about working on this?"

"This... Of course I have thought about it... But Mr. Fang Zheng, does this have anything to do with the topic we are discussing now?"

"certainly."

Fang Zheng nodded.

"In the past, everything in Academy City was centered around developing abilities, and you've seen the drawbacks of this. In order to develop abilities, many idiots chose to take shortcuts, and even conducted some inhumane experiments. In the final analysis, this is all due to the distorted development path of Academy City, which values ​​ability above all else."

“…”

Hearing this, Kaihara Kyono's expression became a little gloomy. It was obvious that she was also thinking of her friends who were involved in those experiments.

"My goal is to make the development of Academy City healthier and more comprehensive. Ability development is only one of them, not all of them. We should find ways to encourage the research and development of theoretical science. So, I need your assistance..."

"But, Mr. Fang Zheng, I am just an ordinary student at Tokiwadai..."

Kaihara Kyono was even more panicked at this moment. She was just an ordinary student, so how could she be related to the future of Academy City?

"No ordinary student from Tokiwadai can speak at the Russian Congress of Mathematicians."

Fang Zheng chuckled.

"Mr. Kaihara Kyono, let me be frank. I hope you can publish an excellent paper as the first author. At the same time, I hope you can reach Lv5."

"Lv5..."

"That's right. As long as you reach Lv5, I will move you to the first place."

"Why?"

At this time, Haiyuan Qiongnai finally became completely panicked.

"Original Level 5..."

"Don't worry about that. I did this for my own reasons. First of all, you have a good image. Unlike those problem children, Academy City needs a representative with a positive image, not an idiot who will cause trouble at every turn. Secondly, you have excellent theoretical research ability, which is also what we need. In the past, Lv5s, including Misaka Mikoto, were not very dedicated to theoretical research. In Academy City, we need people with a rich theoretical foundation and who have made practical achievements. Finally, we need a Lv5. After all, one of the goals of Academy City is to develop capabilities. Therefore, only when you reach Lv5 can our plan be successfully implemented."

Having said this, Fang Zheng spread out his hands.

"How is it? Kaihara-san, I think this is also a process of improvement for you personally."

“…”

Kaihara Kyonori did not answer immediately. Instead, she stretched out her fingers and tapped them gently to her lips a few times, as if she was thinking. Then, Kaihara Kyonori looked at Fang Zheng.

"Um... Mr. Fang Zheng, please forgive me for being frank. As for string theory research, I am still in the process of deepening it. As for the topic, I still need to discuss it with my teacher. However, Lv5... I am very sorry, I only have a slight clue at the moment..."

"I understand, so I'm going to give you a little motivation."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng snapped his fingers.

The next moment, Haiyuan Qiongnai suddenly found that his body was completely unable to move.

"Mr. Fang Zheng?"

"Let's do an experiment."

Fang Zheng smiled and crossed his hands to his mouth, looking at Kaihara Kyono.

"You should be able to feel that I have stopped time around you. Next, you need to use your own abilities to remove the restrictions I have placed on you. If you can't do that... well, let's do this."

Having said this, Fang Zheng blinked.

"Every hour, I'll take off one piece of your clothing, how about that?"

“Eh? …Eh?!!”

At this moment, Haiyuan Qiongno could no longer remain calm.
