Misaka Mikoto froze with a mobile phone.

She froze when she heard the words coming from the opposite side of the intercom, mixed with the noise.

She knew she was sweating all over.

Although I don't know the last one, although the LCD screen of his mobile phone is broken and the connector is bent, it still maintains the call function. That is to say, the last conversation with Zuo in the Pope's Hall and Palace reached Meiqin word for word.

Most of the conversations between them were incomprehensible to Mei Qin.

No, even if I understand most of it, I think I have forgotten it.

All she cares about is one sentence.

"..."

As soon as she opened her mouth, Meiqin found herself speechless.

Trembling fingers finally cut off the power supply of the mobile phone, and gawk at the disconnected mobile phone. Although I intend to stay where I am until my shivering stops, it seems that I will not stop for a long time.

Meiqin, who finally recovered a little from the shock, moved her lips again. Obviously it is unconscious, but I still know that the sound that doesn't sound like taste is coming from my mouth.

She only uttered a low moan.

"... all of it, forget ...?"

When she said this sentence, Meiqin thought of its meaning again.

Really? amnesia

. . . . . . . . .

Volume 16

In the middle of the night, Misaka Mikoto was walking alone in the street.

In order to take a bath, Meiqin had to come to the bathing place outside, but she was unlucky. She happened to meet the emergency of "hypoxia alarm" unique to the 22 nd school district, and she was trapped in the building. By the time she noticed, it was completely late at night, and her hot body was completely cold after taking a bath, so the meaning of taking a bath was completely gone.

(Oh, really ... as a result, I have to wash it again when I get back to the dormitory. )

Although I think so, up to now, the entrance and exit of the 22 nd school district has been blocked.

Now it seems that the "hypoxia alarm" has been solved and you can go out of the building. It seems that there is something wrong with the system. The middle-aged man who manages the gate scratched his head with a face of trouble.

Under normal circumstances, Meiqin will definitely complain about something, but now I can hear footsteps coming from behind my uncle and some rude and angry shouts, and my uncle's face corresponding to these people has become livid. Even if you complain now, it won't help, so Meiqin can only stifle her thoughts in the cradle and endure them.

(Mm-hmm ... What the hell happened? )

Although it's hard to see, Meiqin, like a teenager, has a system and especially likes to squeeze into some troublesome problems, so she is also very concerned about what happened.

"wow! ? 」

Suddenly, something similar to static electricity appeared near Meiqin's bangs. Look, this is something she rarely happens, a slight ability to escape. Meiqin looked at the uncle here with a surprised expression and bowed his head, then quickly left the scene. Perhaps this is the unique feeling of Xueyuan City. It is very shameful to be unable to control your abilities. Under such circumstances, Meiqin's power to intervene in the commotion was gradually weakened.

If she is proficient in magic, I'm afraid she will realize that it is because of the effect of "expelling people", which is an operation that will affect people's feelings and understanding. Perhaps because of this, she will be mistaken for her lack of self-control.

(But what happened just now? )

Meiqin continued to wonder, in short, she would never go back to land before the gate fault was solved, so Meiqin looked at the introduction board of the 22 nd school district and finally decided to go to an upscale hotel on the seventh floor.

(I don't know if I can open a room at this time ... Speaking of it, it is still terrible if I am met by the dormitory administrator. Why don't you contact sunspot and ask her to meet me later? )

Thinking about this, Meiqin walked down the spiral stairs.

At this time.

Inadvertently, someone suddenly appeared in the darkness ahead, and it was obvious that the other person was not walking normally. If it is not reliable, it will give people more feelings of instability. Suspicious person? Meiqin frowned until the figure appeared under the street lamp, and Meiqin's expression was suddenly replaced by surprise.

Kamijou Touma.

"Wait, why are you here! ? 」

Meiqin went up in a panic.

If she is normal, it is impossible to reflect this reaction. She also knows that the teenager often travels at night in the city, and there seems to be some kind of doomed love between Meiqin and Meiqin. Even if you run into him on the road, it will only turn into a quarrel in most cases. It is really rare to say that you are worried about him.

However, what Meiqin is facing now is that she has to make such an exceptional move.

Kamijou Touma's appearance is obviously strange.

It's as if he had just climbed up from the cold sea. His face was covered with bandages. I don't know if the bandage is loose because of his forced exercise. You can see that several places are even dyed red. The clothes he wears are also very strange, not the school uniform he always wears, just like the clothes that patients who have surgery in the hospital will wear.

"Imperial Sakamoto, ...? 」

The last one leaned against the pillar of the street lamp as if supporting the body, and finally maintained a posture and said. Probably forced out of the hospital. You can see that the electrodes of medical equipment are still hanging on his cheeks and wrists, and the wires are dragged behind him.

After reading the last article carefully, Meiqin was completely shocked this time.

Although it may be difficult to understand if you don't look carefully ... There are obvious deviations between the left eye and the right eye in the last article, it seems that there are still some problems with his focus. So what he sees now is like the scenery in the fog or through the glass.

Judging from the expression in the last article, he didn't seem to notice it at all.

In other words, he is too anxious to care about these trivial things.

「……」

Although Shangtiao's lips moved slightly a few times, Meiqin couldn't hear what he was saying.

I just saw him slowly, slowly loosen his hand holding the street lamp and go out again. Originally, he was going to cross Meiqin in this way, but when he reached the edge of Meiqin, his knees were weak.

Meiqin clutched the article that was about to fall to the ground.

"Idiot! ! I thought you were hurt! ? I have so many electrodes on me ... Maybe, where did you escape from the hospital? You don't want to say that! ? 」

"If you don't go, you can't ..."

Because the distance between the two people is relatively close, Meiqin finally heard the voice of the last one.

"Those guys, probably, are still fighting. So, if I don't go ... "

Just listening to his intermittent speech, Meiqin felt that she was shaking all over.

The boy has been involved in several strange events in places that Meiqin doesn't know so far, and Meiqin can make some predictions about these things. However, no matter how you think about it, it can't be a follow-up event caused by a simple fight. Once in the past, she witnessed this guy fighting the strongest haunters in the college. I'm afraid that kind of thing will only happen once in a person's life. But I'm afraid no one thought that he would fall into an uncertain situation so many times.

At the same time, considering these things, Meiqin finally felt that there were some things that she could understand.

She only thought of one word.

(... memory loss)

As it is now, it is impossible to get hurt by fighting that will lead to loss of life every time. Whether the cause of amnesia comes from mental shock or brain structural problems is not clear to her. However, no matter which one is inside, Mi Qin will feel "possible". Because Kamijou Touma's body is in tatters.

We must stop him, Miqin thought.

Now his body still looks as if he is going to die soon. He has experienced amnesia, but even so, the teenager decided to face the immediate crisis by himself.

「……? 」

The last article used incredible eyes to see that no matter how long passed, I still held my beautiful piano with both hands.

Why didn't Miqin let herself leave? His expression shows that he doesn't understand at all.

Because he hid everything that would make others worry, he felt that absolutely no one came to talk to himself. As long as he doesn't talk, it is impossible for people around him to know that he is in crisis, and it will not happen that others take the initiative to help themselves. He was so convinced when he was a teenager, and so was his expression.

For this matter, Meiqin felt that her patience had reached the limit.

From the bottom of my heart

"Why didn't you say anything?"

Meiqin didn't even notice that she was deflated.

Even though she knew that something irreversible might happen, she was still not prepared to stop what she was going to say next.

"If you want someone to help you, please lend me some strength! No, it doesn't matter even if it's not such a specific line. Easier! ! Fear, anxiety and so on, even a little, you can tell me about it! ! 」

Sakamoto ... what are you talking about?

"I already know."

Things have come to this, and he's still trying to muddle through ... no, I'm afraid the last one is to let Miqin stay out of his own business and continue his poor acting skills. Mitch made up his mind to say the following.

"I already know that you have lost the memory of the past! ! 」

At this moment, the whole shoulder of the last article was greatly shaken.

Huge-this is the huge "shake" that can affect life.

Looking at the article in confusion, Meiqin also suffered a huge impact.

But what's wrong with that?

Meiqin was really saved by this teenager once in the past. Not only she was saved, but also about 10 thousand girls she should protect.

At that time, Kamijou Touma appeared in front of Meiqin, who wanted to face the ghosts and gods of the strongest city in the snowfield alone. Meiqin, who was prepared to bear everything and die alone, was trampled by teenagers in her own way.

Indeed, this is a dirty practice with no sense of delicacy at all, and even personal privacy has been violated to some extent. However, the girl Misaka Mikoto and her "sisters" were saved by this method.

Only Kamijou Touma himself doesn't want to deny this practice.

Because even this teenager must be saved in the same way.

Therefore, Mi Qin will say.

"I know you also have some things that must be kept secret from yourself. However, can't these problems be handled by themselves? The body has become tattered, and even the memories in the brain have been erased. Even so, do you still have to fight alone? What's your reason for going it alone? ! 」

The last article just listened to her.

He'd better listen quietly and not talk, Meiqin continued.

"Even I can play."

Like a positive challenge, Meiqin just spoke her mind directly.

What I haven't been able to say so far naturally comes out of my mouth.

"Even I can be your strength! ! 」

Not because she is the third-ranked "super electromagnetic gun" in Xueyuan City, but because Meiqin doesn't mean such a simple dialogue at the level. Even if she loses all her strength and becomes an ordinary incompetent, Miqin will swear that she will say the same thing.

"There is no reason to let you a person injured! So tell me, where are you going now and who are you going to fight! ! I'll call today, I'll reassure you! ! 」

"Royal, Sakamoto ..."

"What kind of mood are others waiting for you? Let you experience it for yourself today! Lying at the bedside, you can only watch the mood of the person you are fighting in a safe place, so let yourself experience it! ! You, when helping your sisters, are also like this! ! I was told to talk with you here, but I went to challenge the ghost of the strongest city in the college! ! Why does your theory only work for you? Why are you the only one who doesn't ask for help like others? ? 」

Meiqin shouted, staring at Shangtiao's face.

There was an expression of surprise on his face.

However, this is not the expression on your face when you suddenly know something you don't know, but the expression of shock when you find something you don't know.

There is a memory about one party and sisters.

Although Meiqin is relieved about this matter, she is disgusted with her emotional self in this situation. It turned out that Meiqin did something she shouldn't do in order to get rid of her "anxiety" when she should be worried about her final physical condition.

Kamijou Touma, he didn't notice.

Or, he realized it, but ignored it.

"Always, in a word, go, go to the hospital! Because you won't listen, I won't leave until you get back to the ward! ! 」

Meiqin grabbed Shangtiao's wrist, took out her mobile phone with the other hand to manipulate the map, and then began to look for the location of the hospital.

"... really? "

The last one, though a little stunned, finally moved his lips slowly.

This is an expression that looks like a smile.

"You know."

Although the body seems to collapse at any time, the final body is magically shrouded by a force. Mei Qin thought this was the most dangerous situation, so she didn't let go of her hand holding the winding.

"But you are wrong."

It's like trying to stop Miqin who wants to say something, the last article said.

"I, because I have no memory, I am not very clear."

The core of Kamijou Touma has not been broken.

"Although I don't remember anything before, I don't even remember what kind of mood I was in to meet that last moment. However, whether it is black and blue, it is still necessary to fight until even the memory is damaged. There is no reason why you are the only one who keeps getting hurt. "

Amnesia was exposed. This thing itself should be a very terrible thing, but in the end the real core is not here.

"Probably, I had to stand up and say these words until I lost my memory. I think so, too. "

MeiQin expression suddenly froze.

This conclusion is the real core of the last article.

Therefore, he will hide the fact that he has amnesia. I don't blame anyone. If I hadn't taken any action, I wouldn't be in this situation. Of course he doesn't want to hurt anyone by saying such boring things.

This is something I don't remember, a past event.

However, the last one must be a sense of sacrifice to protect what is important to you. In fact, he really did it. He wants others to cry for him, which is not a beautified suicide wish. He just sowed the seeds for what he would do in the future, then waited and moved on. This is the result.

"Although I can't remember the past, even if I can't, I'm standing here because of these invisible parts. I can't remember the past, which makes me like this. What he left behind was not in his head, but in his chest. Therefore, even if I can't remember clearly, I still understand what I want to do and what I want to do. "

I'm afraid Kamijou Touma is proud of an ambiguous "thing" in his heart that he doesn't know. It is because he has certain beliefs that he will not regret it. If he can meet his former self, he will probably smile and say "thank you" without hesitation. This teenager is sure to do so.

"Sorry, Sakamoto. Just come back quickly. "

When she came to her senses, Meiqin grabbed his hand and let it go.

Unusually powerful force, moving on the last wrist.

"I have to go. This is not something that can be reassuring to others. It's not what I was forced to do ... it's just that I want to go. Nothing has changed as a result, such a thing. I'm afraid I would have done the same if I hadn't lost my memory because of gear misplacement. Kamijou Touma is such a person who will not let a little memory shake. "

The boy turned his back on Meiqin and went out again.

If you want to catch up with him, you can catch up with him anyway, because his pace is too unreliable.

(What should I do ...)

However, Meiqin did not act.

His back is behind his back, you can touch it as long as you reach out.

I didn't say anything wrong. This guy can't go back to the hospital now. Besides, my choice to go to war with this guy is also ... but I also know that he is not lying. Probably, now, here, this kind of thing, standing by himself, has any special significance to him)

I worry about these things, while moving on.

Even though Meiqin has been worried, the winding has not stopped.

However, this is not something I can stop alone. I can't do it. The right thing to do now must be to look after him like this. Then put your hands together and pray to the gods that he can come back to him safely. This is the most correct behavior. All other options, no matter which one, are "redundant". This guy is definitely not looking forward to this ...)

The unreliable figure faded away, and there was no time.

Obviously, he must be stopped now, but Miqin can't do anything.

(what to do. I can't accept it at all. )

I'm afraid not a word of what Kamijou Touma just said is a lie. Does he just want to carry out his beliefs, or does he just want to do it himself, so he fights?

Even if it is unreasonable, we should respect this opinion and watch him leave.

I know this kind of thing myself, even a fool should be able to understand it.

However, I just can't accept it in my heart.

I can't do it.

(... such a thing)

Slowly, she put her hand on her chest.

Misaka Mikoto this girl this moment she finally realized.

It has nothing to do with reason, rationality, decency, face, shyness, leaving aside foreign languages, etc., but staying in the deepest feelings in my heart. This is the real core of Misaka Mikoto. Tragedy, ugliness, willfulness and coquetry-this is the naked true self.

She doesn't know the name of this emotion, Miqin.

Which category should it be divided into? Now she still doesn't understand.

But today, this day, this moment, this moment.

Misaka Mikoto, she knows.

In my heart, I can easily break all the barriers in my heart, and great feelings are sleeping.

As one of the ghosts with only seven people in Xueyuan City, she should be very familiar with controlling her spiritual side through the form of "only her own reality". Even so, her great feelings can easily crush everything.

Kamijou Touma figure, disappeared in the darkness.

Misaka Mikoto couldn't stop him until the end.

This is not because the actions in the last article touched her heart.

But because her breasts are oppressed by the feelings she realizes, she can't even move a finger.
