The Puppeteer of Academy City

Chapter 81: Accommodation problem

Looking for a highly skilled alchemist—this is the real reason why Baiyin Yao came to Academy City this time.

As for hunting down the sixteen automatic puppets that infiltrated the campus city... that's just an excuse on the surface.

An enemy of this level is not enough for a puppet master with the name "Silver" to personally attack.

Meeting Ling Xingye and guiding him to formally contact the "Baiyin" organization was a private job carried out by Baiyinyao—only with the approval of the elders.

As I said before, the main reason why the "Silver" organization split into two factions, the old and the new, was the depletion of the water of life, which directly led to the inability of the old school's birth method of silver to continue.

And "Silver" is essentially a group composed of puppet masters. Although it also involves the field of magic, few people will focus on the practice of a certain magic or spell.

Unfortunately, alchemy or alchemy has never been the focus of the silver people, even if they are well aware of the importance of alchemy.

Therefore, when the core used to make "Water of Life" - "Soft Stone" was consumed, they were completely dumbfounded.

"Soft stone" will slowly dissipate in the natural environment, because it is not something that should exist in this world.

It's just that its dissipating and decomposing speed is extremely slow, so slow that it can't be directly observed at all.

So when the silver people noticed the fact that the "soft stone" was indeed shrinking, they could no longer find an alchemist who could refine the "soft stone".

At least the domestic inheritance of "alchemy" has been lost.

Therefore, the only one who can reproduce the alchemy miracle of "Soft Stone" is the alchemists in the stories of the western wizarding world—the existence of the "Philosopher's Stone" and "Sorcerer's Stone" they are pursuing, Judging from the description, it is the same thing as "soft stone".

But it is also frustrating that the alchemy school in the Western magic world is also withered, and the "Silver" organization rarely goes abroad, so after more than two hundred years, it has never been able to find an alchemist who can reproduce "Soft Stone" division.

Until the last few decades, the conflict between the old and the new became more and more acute, and the elders finally made up their minds to search for the existing alchemist in the world.

Until recently, news came from the Operations Specialist of "Silver" in Europe that he had obtained information from an alchemist.

And after a brief contact, the operation specialist found that the opponent's alchemy attainments were very high, at least the operation specialist who became a monk halfway could not find out his depth.

This also means that the opponent is likely to have the strength to refine "soft stone".

Then the action specialist reported the information to the elders.

Because the alchemist suddenly came to Academy City recently, Baiyin Yao personally dispatched such a thing.

"That alchemist... Oreos, did he sneak in?" Baiyin Yao asked, "Academy City's official immigration system cannot find this person."

"Of course, after all, he is on the magic side."

Baiyin Yao couldn't help complaining: "This city is obviously called the base camp of the science side. Why does it feel like a sieve, full of loopholes? Be it automatic puppets or magicians, even we, Baiyin, It’s not that you’re afraid of trouble, you can sneak in at will... The defense is too lax.”

"After all, this is a huge city with a population of 2.3 million. It is impossible to completely seal off the border." Kumiko Yanaka explained from a professional point of view.

"Forget it, it's none of our business anyway." Baiyin Yao shrugged, "Let's talk about the alchemist, where is he hiding now? I'm going to get in touch with him in these two days."

"In an institution called Sanze School," Lu Cun said, "but he seems to have fallen out with his old employer, the Roman Orthodox Church, and fled here. Now Sanze School has been turned into a fortress, making it difficult for outsiders to enter in."

Baiyin Yao laughed: "It doesn't matter, as long as you show enough sincerity."

As she spoke, she patted the suitcase beside her.

Bai Yinyao's understanding of Oreos actually far exceeded Lu Cun's expectations. Because she relied not only on the information provided by Lu Cun, but also on the comprehensive intelligence support from the rear base camp.

So Bai Yinyao already knew the alchemist's wish and the reason why he defected to the Roman Orthodox Church.

Baiyin Yao also brought the knowledge and technology he needed most.

In Ling Xingye's apartment, the three of them were facing a huge problem.

Hitomi Shiranui decided to stay at Ling Xingye's home tonight. Therefore, Yuan Shanyao, who was unable to return to the dormitory by himself, had no choice but to stay together.

However, the apartment Ling Xingye lives in is a dormitory for boys, and it is also a single apartment.

Leaving aside the issue of taking girls to stay overnight at home without authorization - there is no dormitory teacher here anyway, as long as there is no trouble, generally no one will take care of it.

Don't you see that there is a silver-haired nun in Kamijou Toma's house next door.

The problem is the "single" dormitory~www.wuxiahere.com~From the design and structure, the space of this dormitory does not support a double bed or a second single bed.

Of course, if you don't mind sleeping on the floor, it's not a problem to barely fit four or five people, and two girls don't take up much space, so they can squeeze together on the bed.

However, it is important to note that there is a difference between men and women. Even if there is enough space, Ling Xingye and the two girls can't just "coexist in the same room".

If there is only Hitomi Shiranui alone, they don't need to think so much. Three years of getting along day and night have already made them not care much about these details.

But Yuan Shanyao is different. Even Hitomi Shiranui is not very familiar with this introverted girl. Not to mention Ling Xingye, who also doesn't like dealing with others—the relationship between her and Ling Xingye doesn't even reach the normal "classmate" level, right?

Even out of politeness, Ling Xingye had to avoid it.

"I don't know how that guy Kamijou spent the night..." Ling Xingye muttered with a headache.

Seemingly enjoying seeing him troubled, Hitomi Shiranui willfully left this difficult problem to Ling Xingye to deal with. I watched the excitement from the sidelines.

She insisted on staying with Yuan Shanyao, in fact, it was somewhat intentional to play tricks on Ling Xingye.

Faced with such an unreasonable request, Ling Xingye could actually issue an order to expel the guest without being polite.

But this is Hitomi Shiranui's "willfulness", so Ling Xingye will not think about the option of "refusal" at all.

Having said that, if it wasn't for Hitomi Shiranui, Ling Xingye would not have faced this kind of difficulty from the very beginning - he would never have invited other students to his home.

Shaking his head, the boy didn't have the decisiveness he had when he was fighting against the automatic puppet. He sighed helplessly, and walked to the entrance to change into outdoor shoes.
