Out of all 2.3 million people who lives in Academy City, 80% of them are students, many of whom are Espers, individuals who possess unique powers through science. Espers are ranked by Levels with the highest being Level 5, which only 7 people have o...
The boy muttered as he was making his way down the street, walking along the sidewalk heading towards the direction of a convenience store.
Because of the recent city-wide power outage, Judgement officers had to do the work of managing traffic in the streets as the traffic lights no longer work.
Due to the blackout, his apartment is also left completely without power. None of the home appliances worked, including fans and air conditioners. Meaning that he had to sleep through the hot summer night, which is a difficulty for him to say the least.
Akiri: I can't even get proper sleep last night... The next time I see her I'm gonna-
???: Shiranobu!
He heard a familiar voice from behind and he saw that it was two familiar faces. Mikoto and Kuroko, who is holding the electromaster's arm.
Kuroko: We have a situation
She said as she walked up to him and grabbed his arm.
Akiri: Hey, wait a-
He didn't get to finish what he was saying as he was immediately teleported along with the girl.
(Timeskip)
Mikoto: The bomber has lost consciousness?
She asked as the three are currently walking down the hallway of a hospital building.
Kuroko: I don't know the details, but he suddenly collapsed while under Anti-Skill's custody
Akiri: Why are you dragging me into this as well?
Kuroko: You've dragged yourself into this mess. Stop complaining
They then stopped in front of a doctor and a nurse who are standing outside of a room. Kuroko then showed them her armband.
Kuroko: I'm Shirai from Judgement. What's his condition?
Doctor: We've exhausted all our options, but the chances of him regaining consciousness...
Mikoto: Umm... I hit that guy in the face really hard a few days ago... So...
Doctor: No, there wasn't any evidence of brain damage. In fact, we couldn't find anything wrong with his body at all. He's only lost consciousness
Kuroko: So there're no known causes...
Akiri: Are there any other patients with the same case?
Doctor: There are. Other patients in the same state have been steadily coming in this week
Akiri: This week, huh? That can't just be a coincidence
He said as he looks towards the girls and they gave each other a knowing nod. It's clear to them that the situation had just escalated. And they had a suspecting feeling that they knew exactly what was causing it.
Doctor: It's embarrassing to admit, but this is beyond the abilities of the staff and facilities we have here. So we've asked for a brain physiology specialist from an external department
As he said that, they heard footsteps approaching them and they turned their heads to see a familiar woman, wearing a white lab coat, with tired-looking eyes.
