ability is scene replay (200 recommendation votes plus more)

“It was about 8 o’clock in the morning. The last location of the bicycle in the surveillance camera was here.”

Natsume Enako and Senior Maeda came to the entrance of the alley captured by the surveillance camera. Natsume Enako said as she looked at the not-so-long alley ahead.

There were tall buildings on both sides, but once you walked out of the alley, it became desolate. There were several abandoned buildings in sight. They used to be the property of several research institutes. There was a fence in the middle separating the buildings on both sides.

However, many of the fences were broken, so you can easily enter these abandoned buildings.

“Senior Maeda, can you find any clues?” Natsume Enako asked Senior Maeda, who was holding a camera and observing.

“Almost, almost, I can see what it was like around 9 o’clock in the morning, and I can almost observe the scene earlier.”

Senior Maeda held up the camera, The whole person leaned forward slightly, concentrating on observing the scene in front of the camera.

Senior Maeda can see the past through the camera, and can also press the shutter to take a photo so that others can also see part of it. This is her ability—scene replay.

“Then please.” Natsume Enako also felt that she could not help much, and looked around bored.

It’s so desolate. She didn’t expect there is such a place in the seventh school district. She heard that this place used to be a research institute that was heavily protected.

Natsume Enako also stayed in the research institute for a period of time before, and she also knows how strict the various security measures in the research institute are.

There were at least four or five research institutes in this area. If you want to cause such damage and completely destroy the security measures of these research institutes, you must be a level 5 guy in terms of destructive power.

It’s just that it’s not clear whether the turmoil at the time was caused by the ability.

Stepping on the scattered concrete fragments on the ground, Natsume Enako squatted down and picked up some concrete residue. The concrete was covered with moss, and it looked like no one had been here for a while.

“Special Mineral Research Institute? So this is the place where meteorites are studied.” Natsume Enako looked at the remaining words on the building and suddenly remembered something.

When she was in elementary school, Natsume Enako heard a piece of news that a basin-sized meteorite had fallen in the north of Neon Country. Later, for some unknown reason, the meteorite was transported to Academy City for research, and a research institute was established for this purpose, named the Special Mineral Research Institute.

The most widely circulated gossip is that the mysterious patterns carved on the meteorite are suspected to be alien creations.

Of course, Natsume Enako doesn’t believe this kind of gossip, and if it was a turmoil of this level, the meteorite might have been destroyed long ago.

“Enako, come quickly, I think I saw something.” Natsume Enako heard Senior Maeda’s call, and someone hurriedly dropped the debris in her hand and rushed to the senior.

“Have you found my bicycle?” Natsume Enako asked immediately, it seems that Natsume Enako is really concerned about her bicycle.

“Found it, found it, the two wheels are rolling, but the pedals are not moving, Enako classmate, this is very abnormal.” Maeda Kana said, and the tone became excited. Because it happened not too long ago, the scenery seen by the senior was clearer.

You can see the past scene with a camera, this kind of ability involving time, It’s really unreasonable.

It’s very unscientific, but it’s one of the scientific achievements in Academy City.

In fact, Natsume Enako is also very interested in the brain circuits of other ability users.

Due to the differences in their own abilities, the personal realities formed are also strange. The difference in thinking between people is greater than the difference between people and dogs.

Natsume Enako can’t understand what kind of formula Maeda Kana needs to develop in order for a camera to capture past images.

As for Shirai-san’s ability to move into the eleventh dimension, Natsume Enako can’t understand it no matter how hard she tries.

What is the eleventh dimension? Why can you go from the third dimension to the eleventh dimension and then return?

It’s like non-same ability users can’t understand Natsume Enako. How can you control the temperature with your brain? Where does the heat go when cooling down? Where does the heat come from when heating up? Are the laws of thermodynamics broken? How do angry ability users make fireballs out of thin air?

“I don’t understand. It’s too troublesome, so I won’t think about it.”

Kicking aside the troublesome questions in her head silently, Natsume Enako’s main task now is to find a bicycle. Senior Maeda has walked a long way.

After running a few steps to catch up with Senior Maeda, Natsume Enako stared at the camera in Senior Maeda’s hand with some curiosity. Although it was close at hand, Natsume Enako always felt that she was redundant.

“Senior Maeda, how are you now?” Natsume Enako inexplicably felt that she was following a bicycle that had gone out secretly a few hours ago. No matter how she thought about it, she felt a bit like looking for a sword on a boat.

“It’s still moving, but the speed has slowed down. Run faster. I found it heading into the building.” Senior Maeda, holding a camera, seemed to not need to look at the road. She stepped over the protruding stones on the ground and walked into the abandoned research institute in one step.

It seems that the abandoned building at 8 o’clock in the morning is not much different from now, otherwise Senior Maeda would have fallen over on such a difficult road.

After stepping on a piece of gravel filled with mud and sand, Natsume Enako jumped into a very old hall through the big hole in the wall.

“The bicycle stopped, right here.” As soon as Senior Maeda finished speaking, she pointed her finger at the place under Natsume Enako’s feet.

Even though the incident happened six hours ago, Natsume Enako was still a little panicked for no reason and couldn’t help but get nervous. Hastily stepped back.

After a little moisture evaporated from the ground, she placed some ice cones around and hung her on the roof, and placed ice fences on the nearby window holes. Natsume Enako felt a little safer.

“What happened? What happened next?” Senior Natsume Enako asked, and seemed to be breathing heavily.

“Two people came later and looked at your bicycle carefully. Although I don’t know what they are talking about, they should be quite happy from their expressions. Oh, they are still checking their phones, probably to determine the price of this bicycle.”

Senior Maeda also pressed the shutter of the camera and took a photo. Sometimes, Senior Maeda would have the idea of ​​learning lip reading by himself, but now it is only limited to ideas.

Senior Maeda took the photo and handed it to Natsume-san. The photo was a little blurry, but the appearance of the two people could still be distinguished.

“If you come to see me tomorrow, you may not be able to see the face clearly, because the longer the interval, The more I see, the blurrier it gets. I was looking forward to it, but it turns out to be just a theft.”

Senior Maeda said, putting the camera back to her chest, seeming to feel a little disappointed that a mysterious case was solved so quickly.

Although it was just a harmless photo, Natsume Enako still used her ultimate move and glared at the two people in the photo.

“As for the bicycle’s automatic movement incident, I guess one of them may have magnet ability, which allows him to control the bicycle from a distance, and even open the bicycle’s locked wheels when there is no fingerprint unlocking. The other person is his accomplice, who may be responsible for keeping watch and selling the stolen goods.”

Senior Maeda touched her chin and said thoughtfully. Wearing a beret, she looked like a famous detective. Natsume Enako looked at Senior Maeda unconsciously for a few more times, as if she saw the advent of Sherlock Holmes.

Natsume Enako was very satisfied to find the culprit of her bicycle’s strange escape. Senior Maeda also consumed a lot of energy. Just this investigation of less than ten minutes consumed half of her energy.

“There are indeed many gangsters and gangs around here. Maybe it was her work. But what’s going on around here? Where did these ice cones come from?” Senior Maeda pointed to the ice cones on the ceiling and looked at Senior Natsume in confusion. Enako said.

“Don’t worry about the details.” Natsume Enako said.

Looking around the abandoned research institute building, no one was seen. It seems that the bad guys who stole the car have already left.

The idea of ​​waiting for the rabbit only crossed Natsume Enako’s mind once, but was not adopted by someone. After all, it is unknown whether her nest is here.

At present, it seems that the best way is to hand over the photos to the discipline committee members and security teachers.
