With the help of Xio and Alyssa, Fang Zheng finally completed the last step of the ability improvement plan. However, at this time, he discovered another problem.
That is, with Lei Zi's withdrawal, Fang Zheng could not find a suitable experimental subject.
Fang Zheng knew very few people with special abilities, and because he had always chosen Lei Zi to be his number one experimental subject, Fang Zheng had never paid attention to this aspect of the problem. But now that Lei Zi had withdrawn, trouble arose.
You know, it's hard to find someone like Lei Zi.
Not only does Fang Zheng require the person to be incompetent, but he also chose Lei Zi because of her character and behavior. Otherwise, he could have just found any other incompetent person and there would have been no need to stick to Lei Zi, who was such a crooked person.
But now...who should I look for?
Among all the powerless people Fang Zheng knew, Fremea was the simplest one, but the problem was that she was too young, and Flanda would not agree. Fang Zheng himself did not think that such a young child could control such power.
In addition to that is Minghu Alisa, but Minghu Alisa is not actually a person without abilities. She is a saint after all, and cannot be used as a general comparison target.
By the same token, Kamijou Touma was naturally excluded, not to mention that Fang Zheng and Kamijou Touma didn't know each other very well.
It would be fine if Hatsuharu Shikiri was a person without special abilities, but unfortunately she is also a person with special abilities, although only Level 1. However, a person with special abilities is still a person with special abilities, and she cannot be used as an experimental target.
To be honest, after searching for so long, Fang Zheng found that there was not even one person who could be as trustworthy as Riri Saotome!
so……
"This is really a headache, don't you think?"
Fang Zheng finished his coffee, looked at the girl opposite him and asked. However...
"What does this have to do with me?"
Shokuhou Misaki held the juice in her hand unhappily and glared at Fang Zheng. Needless to say, she was once again spotted by Fang Zheng while walking on the street and then caught.
"It's okay, but since you are the queen of Tokiwadai, you should have some knowledge of this."
"I'm so sorry, but there's no one in my faction who meets the requirements."
Shokuhou Misaki rolled her eyes helplessly and drank the juice. But then again, everyone in Shokuhou Misaki's faction is at least a Level 3 esper... It should be said that there is no such thing as an esper in Tokiwadai.
"But I'm really surprised that Mr. Fang Zheng would come to me to discuss this kind of issue. If there are people with no abilities, aren't there plenty of them in Academy City?"
"This is a technology that can make people without abilities have abilities. Of course, I hope to use it on someone I trust and who is suitable for me first. It would be fine if I just picked up someone on the street, but what if the other person really gains abilities and turns around to cause trouble for me? Aren't most of those idiot superheroes in American comics like this? I'm not stupid enough to cause trouble for myself."
"That's true...but I can't help you with that."
"That can't be helped. Come have another drink with me."
"Mr. Fang Zheng, what you said is just like those drunk office workers in the bar..."
"You drank juice and I drank coffee. I won't get drunk, so what's the problem? Are you afraid that I'll get you drunk and then do something bad?"
"You can't?"
"Of course not. If I had bad intentions, you would never reject me."
"Huh, are you kidding me?"
Hearing this, Shokuhou Misaki snorted.
"Mr. Fang Zheng, your ability to joke is really poor. Do you really think you can do this?"
"It seems you don't believe it, so just see it with your own eyes."
Having said that, Fang Zheng put down the coffee in his hand, then he reached out his hand, placed it on Shokuhou Misaki's chin, and stared at her.
"Look at me, little bee."
"Huh? What are you doing..."
However, Shokuhou Misaki hadn't finished her words yet. She just stared blankly at Fang Zheng in front of her, unable to utter a word.
In Shokuhou Misaki's eyes, those dark eyes were reflecting her own figure, as deep as the night, as if they were sucking her whole body in. For a moment, Shokuhou Misaki even felt as if she was completely attracted by those dark eyes, and unconsciously moved closer.
I want to get closer, closer...
“Woo…”
When Shokuhou Misaki felt the wet and hot touch in her mouth, she had already pressed her whole body against Fang Zheng, hugging him tightly with both hands... as if... as if she was throwing herself into his arms!
“Woo…Woo…!”
Shokuhou Misaki, who noticed this, suddenly widened her eyes, but it was too late. Fang Zheng ** directly broke through Shokuhou Misaki's last struggle, and kept entangled and teasing her. The sudden, unfamiliar touch made Shokuhou Misaki's brain go blank. When their lips slowly parted, Shokuhou Misaki barely regained consciousness.
"You, what did you do to me?"
"I didn't do anything to you, okay?"
Looking at Shokuhou Misaki, who was wiping the corner of her mouth and staring at him with a red face, Fang Zheng spread out his hands with a smile.
"You are a Level 5 esper. You should be able to sense whether I am manipulating your mind or not."
“…”
Hearing this, Shokuhou Misaki's face suddenly changed slightly. Indeed, although her reaction just now seemed to be controlled by the mind, Shokuhou Misaki knew very well that she was not being controlled. She just acted according to her instinct. For some reason, when being stared at by Fang Zheng's eyes, Shokuhou Misaki felt her whole body go limp, her heart beat violently, and even her brain went blank.
My normally sharp-minded brain was completely unresponsive at this moment. How should I put it...it seemed to be something even worse than mental manipulation.
"Hmm... it's a nice shot, look."
Fang Zheng fiddled with his phone for a while, and then displayed the screen in front of Shokuhou Misaki. Shokuhou Misaki looked up, and saw a shot of Fang Zheng reaching out his hand and holding it against her chin. Shokuhou Misaki's face was slightly red, and she looked at Fang Zheng like a little girl in love. Then, the next moment, she suddenly rushed over, rushed directly into Fang Zheng's arms, hugged him tightly, and even... kissed him!
"Wait, wait, was it me who took the initiative?!"
Seeing this, Shokuhou Misaki's face suddenly turned pale, while Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders.
"What else? Is there a third person here to give you a head massage?"
"But... Hey? Wait, who took this photo?"
After carefully staring at the picture on the phone again, Shokuhou Misaki realized that something was wrong. If Fang Zheng was taking the selfie with his phone, then the distance was too far. On the contrary, it looked more like a passerby had taken the picture...
Thinking of this, Shokuhou Misaki hurriedly operated her mobile phone to exit the video, and the next moment, her eyes went dark.
In the BBS discussion column in front of me, there was a big title above the video: "Shocking, the lover of the Queen of Tokiwadai is exposed"...
Seeing this, Shokuhou Misaki wanted to die.
"I, I'm not...I'm not! I'm being manipulated!"
"Go ahead and tell me who will believe it?"
Hearing Fang Zheng's smiling voice, Shokuhou Misaki fell into complete despair.
Indeed, if it were someone else, they could explain it as being enchanted or manipulated. Even Kihara Gensei at the time only snatched control of the ability from Shokuhou Misaki, and he was still using Shokuhou Misaki's ability. But right now, Shokuhou Misaki herself was not being manipulated...
“Aaaaaaaaaaah!!”
Thinking of this, Shokuhou Misaki fell on the table with her head in her hands.
“What shall I do now?!”
"Don't worry, I will be responsible."
"Mr. Fang Zheng, don't you have a fiancée?"
Despite the chaos, Shokuhou Misaki's intelligence network is still operating.
"Of course, but I have more than one fiancée in this world."
"……What's the meaning?"
Hearing this, Shokuhou Misaki narrowed her eyes and looked at Fang Zheng, who chuckled.
"I'll tell you when you agree to be my fiancée. Of course, you can also try to read other people's memories."
“…”
"Don't worry, I will be very gentle when the time comes. All you have to do is count the stains on the ceiling."
"That's not the question, okay!"
Shokuhou Misaki slammed the table in anger.
"This is a crime, Mr. Fang Zheng! I'm still a middle school student!"
"It's okay. If something happens, I will say during the interrogation that 'her figure doesn't look like that of a minor' to get away with it."
"Okay, I'm sure you're here to fight me today, right?"
Shokuhou Misaki was furious at this point.
"That's right. Do you want to join in the fight between fairies? I'll reserve a room for you. Do you want something more primitive or more interesting? We have everything from classrooms to trains to torture chambers to suit your tastes."
“…Forget it.”
Hearing this, Shokuhou Misaki suddenly calmed down. There was no need to sacrifice herself for a momentary anger, don't you think?
"In that case, let's stop here today."
Looking at Shokuhou Misaki in front of him, Fang Zheng chuckled and stood up.
"But to be honest, I really hope you can join us. In fact, I am not afraid to tell you that we are doing something very meaningful. I would be very happy if you could join us."
"Something very meaningful?"
"Yeah, like saving the world."
"……?"
"Anyway, if you're interested, you can come to the institute to find Kurumi, and just tell her that I asked you to come, and she'll understand."
After saying this, Fang Zheng casually placed a business card on the table, and Shokuhou Misaki picked up the business card and looked at Fang Zheng in confusion.
"Mr. Fang Zheng, why do I feel like you are saying goodbye?"
"That's about it. My business here will soon come to an end. I will focus my time on other things... We may not be able to meet for a while."
After saying this, Fang Zheng sighed and turned to leave. Looking at his back, Shokuhou Misaki's expression looked a little uncertain. After a while, she put the business card back into her bag.
At the same time, Fang Zheng had returned to the underground cave of the research institute.
Here, Kuang San has been waiting for a long time.
"Mr. Fang Zheng, have you decided to place the coordinate point in this world?"
"Yes, that's right. It will be safer here, so your burden may be heavier."
Looking at Tokisaki Kurumi in front of him, Fang Zheng nodded. Due to the "activeness" of those players, Fang Zheng has now collected enough information to recast the third coordinate point. The last step is to fix the position of the third coordinate point - Emilia's world is not acceptable, and Louise's world is also not acceptable. The wasteland world is still very chaotic at the moment. In comparison, only the Academy City side is relatively normal.
"Let's get started."
Looking at the huge hole in front of him, Fang Zheng took a deep breath and then opened his hands. The next moment, a dazzling golden light emerged from it. Then, the system prompt of the Dimension Code appeared in front of Fang Zheng's eyes, and a series of codes jumped out from it.
"Hey, I still have to code in another world... I just hope there won't be any bugs."
Looking at the operating interface in front of him, Fang Zheng sighed and then placed his hands on the keyboard.
Then, he started manipulating it again.
Fix the order of coordinate points and rearrange them.
"Hmm... //main()..."
Add comments, fix order units, set variables.
Reference order node parameters, start loop control, supplement standard logs, and predefine object analysis.
The sun, the moon, time, place, living things, non-living things, all the originally fragmented units are reassembled and reclassified.
Read the original coordinate point file, write a new sequence, and catch abnormal errors.
Although he had collected all the backup information, Fang Zheng himself was not sure whether he could successfully restart the third coordinate point. But no matter what, when the lights came on and the night fell, he finally finished typing the last line of code.
"Well, let's get started."
While muttering to himself, Fang Zheng stretched out his hand and gently pressed the enter button in front of him.
The next moment, the sun and the moon began to move, time began to speed up, and everything was re-merging and grouping, trying to return to their original state...
"Didi——!"
The next moment, the whole sky flashed suddenly, and then the originally dark night sky turned blue, and a huge [error: C++ requires a type specifier for all declarations] appeared on it.
"...Mr. Fang Zheng?"
"It's all right."
Compared to the slightly panicked Kuang San, Fang Zheng seemed quite calm. He looked at his watch and it was exactly midnight.
So……
"Lost at zero hour..."
“——!”
As Fang Zheng whispered, a spinning Zero Hour Lost Object suddenly appeared in front of him. The next moment, the Zero Hour Lost Object began to spin madly. As it spun, the strange scenes outside quickly disappeared and returned to their original state.
"call……"
At this time Fang Zheng also breathed a sigh of relief and then rubbed his hands.
"Go on, go on. It's convenient to have an automatic system recovery."
For Fang Zheng, the night is still long.
