Chapter 32

Purifying the social atmosphere

“How should I put it, Natsume-san, you’re really quick. By the way, is this photo credible? It’s rare to have the ability to take pictures of the past.”

Shirai-san had some skin scratches on her arm, and Uiharu-san was helping to apply ointment to the wound.

“It’s the work of Senior Maeda, a sophomore in the school. Since it hasn’t been long, her ability is still effective, and we can finally know the appearance of the criminal.”

Natsume Enako answered while sitting on a stool nearby, looking at the scars on Shirai-san’s body with some concern.

“Shirai-san, is your wound okay? It looks painful.”

Natsume Enako asked with concern. In fact, the danger of the discipline committee member is not very high, but it is not necessarily the case for a guy like Shirai-san who is always fighting crime outside the school.

“Natsume-san, I have received professional training, “No matter how painful it is, she can endure it. It’s just a small wound.” Shirai-san said emphatically, raising a finger.

Sometimes Natsume Enako really admires Shirai Kuroko. Shirai-san can be said to have achieved a level that ordinary people can’t reach in many aspects.

Not only does she have an extraordinary sense of responsibility and justice, but even Senior Misaka, who is a railgun, is becoming increasingly haggard under her strong pressure, and the frequency of discharge has increased unconsciously.

Natsume Enako is different. She eats and drinks well three times a day, studies hard in class, occasionally plays video games in the game hall after school, and surfs the Internet in the dormitory at night. Every day is a bit nonsensical, but being an ordinary student who is motivated by interest is also a great thing.

Although she is an ordinary student who can be seen everywhere, Senior Natsume Enako also has a temper. No matter who does something that makes her angry, Natsume Enako said that she will definitely make her feel the feeling of ice and fire.

“Natsume-san, Could you introduce this senior to us? her ability is very useful for our current investigation. With her ability, we should be able to find the guy who dropped the bomb.”

Uiharu-san looked at the photo that was said to be taken in the past with curiosity. No matter how you think about it, this ability is very helpful to her.

If this ability can really reproduce the past, then can we find the murderer near the bombing?

“Okay, but whether I can help or not depends on what the senior wants. I can only give you her contact information.” Natsume Enako came to Uiharu’s side, glanced at Shirai-san who was applying ointment with her sleeves folded up, and said.

After helping Shirai-san apply the ointment and tying a white bandage, Uiharu-san scanned the portrait in the photo and began to help find the ability user who matched the appearance in the library.

Although the library claimed to record almost all the ability users in Academy City and her various information, after Uiharu-san completed all the searches, she still couldn’t find the corresponding person.

“Nothing was found again. Is the library in Academy City malfunctioning recently?” Natsume Enako said somewhat unhappily. Recently, the library’s usefulness has been greatly reduced.

“In fact, recently, I often find some ability users who are not in the library records, or those whose abilities suddenly increase significantly and the information in the library cannot be matched.”

Shirai-san put down her folded sleeves and moved her arms. In addition to this unsolved bombing case, the number of other cases has been gradually increasing recently.

Even the wound on Shirai-san’s arm was left after the investigation of the bombing case failed and she went to another ability user’s crime scene. The other party seemed to have a level 3 wind ability user, but the one recorded in the library was only a level 1 low ability user.

“So, is the current Academy City in chaos?” Natsume Enako couldn’t help but get a little nervous.

Natsume Enako knew a little about the joints behind the chaos. When she thought of the various experiments and plans hidden behind the Academy City, Natsume Enako felt a huge pressure.

“Since most of the students in the seventh school district are junior high and high school students, the security situation is actually quite good. Some other school districts have already seen small-scale armed group riots.” Shirai-san stood up and explained, frowning slightly.

“Armed groups, do you mean those armed groups without ability?” Natsume Enako was surprised.

Natsume Enako had also heard that the armed groups without ability in the seventh school district were mostly those who skipped classes and acted at night, and would attack students with low ability in groups.

But these armed groups without ability should not steal my bicycle.

….Ordinary dividing line…

Nothing was gained, and things became troublesome again. After reporting to the security teacher, Natsume Enako was unwilling to go back.

Even if she knew the other person’s appearance, it would be useless if she couldn’t find her. Natsume Enako couldn’t wander around the seventh school district or let Uiharu-san keep watching the surveillance.

But before returning to the dormitory, Natsume Enako remembered something. She thought she could buy a computer on the way back and use consumption to soothe her inner sorrow.

After walking in the mall for ten minutes, Natsume Enako walked out of the mall carrying a computer bag and holding the mall mascot monkey doll in her hand.

Natsume Enako didn’t know much about laptops. According to the little knowledge she learned on the Internet a few days ago, she chose a laptop with a moderate price and good performance.

The cost was not much, much cheaper than her lost bicycle.

Just after walking out of the mall and walking on the nearby street, Natsume Enako suddenly heard several deafening exclamations.

Natsume Enako suddenly stopped, and a woman in a white shirt and a short skirt appeared in her sight. At this time, she was standing in the sun in confusion.

“Wait a minute, what are you doing?”

Under the horrified gazes of several passers-by, the woman actually began to slowly unbutton her shirt, revealing a somewhat fair neck.

“There is no way, the weather is too hot today.” The strange woman looked up at the sun in the sky that was emitting huge heat, and said weakly, and then found an impeccable reason for her behavior.

“I have been walking in the sun for a long time, and I feel that my whole body is about to be scorched.” With one hand blocking the sunlight in front of her forehead, the strange woman continued to unbutton her own buttons.

“Strange, this button can’t be unbuttoned.”

Natsume Enako was also stunned at this time. Although she had known that there was such a person in the Academy City, it was indeed shocking to see this scene without any preparation.

“Button up your clothes quickly, there are so many people here.” A passerby girl said in shame and anger, It seems that everyone has similar views on some aspects.

“Oh, this button seems to be frozen, no wonder it suddenly feels a little cooler.” The strange woman’s eyes were tired and dull, and she didn’t react much to the button that suddenly froze, as if it was a matter of course.

When the strange woman passed the frozen button and continued to unbutton the buttons below, a cold wind suddenly blew around, making everyone’s pores stand up. People who were farther away didn’t feel much.

The strange woman also frowned, and after a while, she curled up unconsciously, and seemed to feel a little cold.

“Where did the cold wind come from? Today’s weather is so strange.”

“What a weird weather, it’s obviously a hot day.”

“Why do we encounter so many strange things today?” Passersby were talking about it.

Natsume Enako’s face was also a little red. Has the atmosphere of Academy City become so corrupt?

Sure enough, today’s task of maintaining urban security and purifying social atmosphere will be handed over to a Senior Natsume Enako who passed by and did not want to reveal her name.

Natsume Enako felt that she should do something, such as asking everyone to put on more clothes in summer, so that no one would casually go shirtless.

The buttons were frozen silently, and the nosy Natsume Enako also thoughtfully prepared cooling services for everyone.

Seeing the strange woman start to take the initiative to button up the buttons and pull the collar of the clothes inward, Natsume Enako finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Great, Natsume Enako’s red face has recovered, and she finally doesn’t feel embarrassed.

It really kills two birds with one stone, It not only solved the problem of weird women being too hot, but also purified the social atmosphere of Academy City.
