Chapter 52

Comas occur one after another

Under the scorching sun, Natsume Enako sipped the water handed to her by Shirai-san.

She sat on a bench in the school garden and rested, looking at the sky, wondering what she was thinking.

Because her chest was burning, and her muscles began to cramp involuntarily, she looked listless.

“Natsume-san, you are exaggerating, you haven’t recovered in half an hour?”

Shirai-san’s familiar brown ponytails appeared in Natsume Enako’s sight, and she looked at the dead body lying on the bench with a helpless look.

“Shirai-san, people’s physiques cannot be generalized, don’t worry about me, just let me melt under this blue sky.”

Natsume Enako said weakly, with a sickly face, At first glance, it was as if she had seen through this dull and boring life.

“But I didn’t expect that you could actually run two kilometers. You’d be too tired to walk after running 500 meters.”

Shirai-san stretched her arms to stretch her muscles, then leaned comfortably on the bench.

“Hehe, this shows that my recent exercise has worked.”

Natsume Enako suddenly raised her head and said thoughtfully, her heart couldn’t help but become active.

It seems to be true. After running around recently, her physical strength seems to have increased a little.

Ignoring the fact that she was the last in the run, being able to hold on to the end is also a great achievement for someone.

“Do you call that exercise? Why do I see you eating sweets every time I see you?” Shirai-san showed a suspicious look on her face, and couldn’t help but look Natsume Enako up and down.

Due to the power outage in District 7, the traffic lights at the intersection were out of service. The entire traffic was stuck and paralyzed.

At this time, Shirai-san, wearing a Judgement armband, stood at the traffic platform in the middle of the road directing traffic.

She had a whistle hanging around her neck and used gestures to guide the vehicles to move forward normally.

Since it was still the club activity period, the campus bus between Tokiwadai Student dormitory and the school was not yet in operation, so Senior Natsume Enako could only walk back.

“Judgment is really versatile.”

Natsume Enako, who was sore all over, walked back with difficulty. When she passed the road, she saw Shirai-san directing traffic. Not only Shirai-san, but other intersections also arranged Judgement to help direct traffic.

She was exhausted after the physical education class. She decided to put off the club trip today and recover her body first.

But fortunately, Senior Misaka, a member who was going home, was by my side, so the journey was not so boring. Both sides had a friendly exchange and consultation on the issue of Kuata.

“Senior Misaka, did you know that a large number of Security Personnel were dispatched this morning?”

As she walked, Natsume Enako remembered the large-scale deployment of Security Personnel in the morning. Although she didn’t pay much attention to it at the time, now she thinks that something big may have happened again.

“I do know a little bit. Kuroko told me this morning that there seemed to be some problems with the Aim Analysis Research Institute.” Senior Misaka, who put her schoolbag on her shoulder and looked a little carefree and boyish, turned around and said.

“There is a problem with the Research Institute again. Could it be that there is another weirdo like last time?”

Natsume Enako was a little surprised, Since the appearance of the weirdo last time, every large-scale deployment of Security Personnel has made me a little nervous.

“I don’t know about this.”

Senior Misaka walked much slower, so that Natsume Enako could keep up. The two walked slowly on the road, stopping from time to time to buy some snacks.

“Kuroko?”

Space movement is really convenient. Shirai-san always appears everywhere without anyone noticing.

Suddenly, she felt that there was someone around me. Senior Misaka held takoyaki in one hand and looked at Shirai Kuroko who fell from the sky in confusion.

“Senior Misaka has a problem. Jie Lu Hatsuya suddenly fainted during the interrogation of Security Personnel, and she is still unconscious.” Shirai-san just fell down and immediately said anxiously.

“Jie Lu Hatsuya, the criminal of the void explosion case?” Senior Misaka asked.

Natsume Enako immediately became a little nervous. Has the situation finally come to this?

“Besides, the same happened to the girl from Sekisho Junior High School in the Tokiwadai attack case last time. In recent days, many unconscious prisoners have been sent to the hospital one after another.” Shirai-san continued.

“Is it Juufuku Miho?” Natsume Enako suddenly asked.

Although Juufuku Miho has a bit of a weird personality, Natsume Enako has become familiar with her after a period of communication.

Although she knew that using Fantasy Hand would cause sequelae, Natsume Enako felt a little helpless when it really happened.

“Then let’s go to the hospital quickly, Natsume-san, you go back to the dormitory first.”

Senior Misaka was too enthusiastic. She don’t know if it was influenced by Shirai-san or her nature, but she has been obsessed with the Fantasy Hand incident recently.

“No, I want to go too.” Natsume Enako shook her head firmly. Although she had some difficulty walking and had no strength in her body, she couldn’t just ignore her friend when she saw something wrong.

“Okay, Kuroko, you take Natsume with you.” Senior Misaka looked at Natsume Enako with some surprise, nodded and agreed.

“Really, you are a guy who always causes trouble for others.” Shirai-san had a hint of reluctance on her face, Reaching out and pulling Natsume Enako’s sleeve, the two disappeared in an instant.

Senior Misaka also gathered her strength when she saw this scene, and began to sprint forward at a speed like an electromagnetic catapult, stirring up waves along the way.

Mizuho Medical Institute seemed to be particularly busy today, and unconscious students were sent here for treatment one after another.

Although there was a power outage outside, the hospital had a backup power supply, which did not affect the normal operation of the hospital at all.

“This is it, we are here.”

Two figures suddenly appeared in the space, and Natsume Enako did not have much time to think, and was taken by Shirai-san to travel through space again and again, and soon arrived near this Mizuho Medical Institute.

The feeling of space travel is very strange. Before the brain can react, the sight suddenly shifts to another place, just like watching TV, the scene is constantly switched.

“Senior Misaka will be here soon, we will wait outside.” Put down the phone, Shirai-san spoke.

In a park somewhere, Saten Ruiko-san sat on a swing.

Holding the amulet in one hand and resting the other hand on the swing chain, Saten-san’s eyes were blank, and it was unknown what she was thinking.

“Akemi, what’s wrong with you?”

Akemi, who was using ability to suspend a cleaning robot in the air, suddenly fainted, causing an uproar among the people nearby.

“What happened?”

Saten-san’s head was a little dizzy, and she was speechless looking at Akemi who suddenly fell to the ground. Her phone suddenly vibrated, as if some message had been sent in.

On the other side, Senior Misaka finally arrived at Mizuho Medical Institute. Because she ran too fast, she was still a little out of breath, but she looked much better than Natsume Enako.

“Let’s go in quickly.” Senior Misaka said anxiously.

“I am Judge Shirai Kuroko, I want to know the prisoner’s recent situation.” Shirai-san took out the Judgement armband and said seriously.

“We have tried our best, but he still has no signs of waking up.”

“There is no damage to his whole body, including his brain, he just has been unconscious. And similar cases have been sent to us in recent days, But there is still no clue.” The doctor in charge of the coma explained the current situation, but he could not find the cause of the coma at all, and was still confused.

“Can I see the patient’s information for an unknown coma?” Shirai-san thought with her chin in her hand.

“Of course.”

Just as Shirai-san and Senior Misaka were communicating with the doctor, Natsume Enako had already arrived in a ward, where a comatose girl with two buns was lying on the bed.
