Chapter 78 – #24 Factory Mission, Magical Girl Searching for Criminals (Black) (3)
… … …
… …
…
The operation went smoothly.
I am not talking about the operation for the job given by the 『Factory』, But the operation for her mission to infiltrate this city.
Because she chose a quest that was not bad for freely roaming the streets, she was able to slowly move to the target point specified in the quest and look around.
You could get explanations about facilities or equipment that you would not have understood without an expert’s explanation by asking the AI assistant who followed you.
And above all, we obtained detailed map data in this city.
Originally, Black had a map of this city, but it was supply data provided to efficiently use the magical girls who were slaves of this city.
However, the map provided by the assistant AI this time was more detailed than that, and was special in that it allowed you to check additional data that was not at all visible in the popular map.
She not only viewed it, but also downloaded it to her personal computer, so she can use it over and over again.
Even just this amount is a significant improvement.
It made me think that today’s investigation could be done to this extent.
‘If I do more than this, my stomach will be so full that it will explode.’
Unfortunately, Black’s nature is lazy.
I’m so lazy that I wonder if I’ll have a seizure if I work too much.
I think working means losing.
Even if I do work, I feel like I don’t want to do more than my quota.
If you accomplish too much in one day, you end up feeling miserable and sad rather than proud.
In any case, we believe that the survey in this city should continue on a yearly basis for a long time.
In that case, I think it would be a loss to try too hard and end up doing too much research in one day.
‘So, I want to go back.’
Today, after finishing the research, I want to go back to my room and rest.
It would be nice to resume the investigation tomorrow while rolling around in bed, eating delicious food, and watching funny videos.
No, the data obtained today is very useful, so wouldn’t it be okay to take a break for the next three days?
I even end up having that thought.
I know it’s a bad idea.
What can you do? This is your nature.
* * *
[I guess electric torture isn’t enough to revive your motivation.]
[Next time you try to be lazy again, I will inject Mentose and cola into your anus.]
… Black thought about fooling around with such thoughts, but unfortunately, her wish was completely dashed by the drone-type helper AI.
As she was about to go back to her dorm, he urged her by giving pinpoint electric shocks to both her nipples and her clitoris.
The pinpoint electric shock, which even the magic girl’s suit could not block, was so powerful that Black had no choice but to obey without even thinking about resisting.
Damn AI.
Damn drone bastard.
Someday, I will destroy it with my own hands.
Rather, Mentos and Cola in the anus… If you do something like that, you will really die.
Anyway, that’s how it happened.
Even though Black was already fully satisfied, he continued to track and investigate for the request of 『Factory』.
I found traces from the convenience store that was there a little while ago, and used magic to confirm the footprints leading from those traces.
There were many traces that seemed to belong to the criminal, spread throughout the city.
This is probably because not only are the opponents not staying in one place, but there are at least three people presumed to be the culprits.
It’s annoying, but there’s nothing you can do.
For now, we have no choice but to follow these traces one by one and check them.
It is said that with the technological prowess and incompetent AI of these [Mecrags], No traces or evidence of the culprit could be found.
The only clue is his own magic, so for now he has no choice but to follow the traces he has confirmed with magic.
Ha, really.
I’m so capable that I’m even scared, Black thought, praising himself.
Even though they have technology that is centuries old, they are incompetent aliens who can’t even take over a convenience store. He is a hikikomori and is an unemployed person, raising his arrogance and becoming confident.
I am really capable.
I am secretly amazing.
As it turns out, she is a pretty awesome woman.
It is right to just discard this incompetent helper AI that is trying to push itself.
Black continued his pursuit, thinking such things with confidence.
* * *
To explain the magic used by Black in detail, when he uses magic to track a target, it feels like the path the target passed by, the invisible footprints, and the distance or direction to the destination are roughly shown in Black’s mind. 〈 Br〉
The sense of detecting this presence is quite amazing.
By looking at the map displayed by the assistant AI, I was able to immediately take a picture of the place where the sign was estimated to have reached the end.
Of course, the location is approximate, so you need to go there in person to check exactly where it is…
Also, unless the magic is removed, you will see footprints on the floor that are invisible to other people, so just following those footsteps will give you some clues.
Of course, the presence is not 100% accurate, and the footprints that can be seen on the floor are sometimes interrupted, so it is inevitable that you will get lost in various ways.
Anyway.
Among the places where footprints and signs were scattered irregularly in various directions and throughout the city, Black was able to arrive at the closest place to the convenience store where the incident occurred.
“I think we’ve arrived.”
In front of the entrance to a passage leading underground.
Above the entrance, which is not very large, is a sign with the unsophisticated name [■■ Club].
Just like the karaoke bar I went to before, the name is just as old-fashioned as expected.
【Mecrac】’s naming sense is completely incomprehensible.
By the way.
“But this looks dangerous? Isn’t it a bit like that? Can’t I just go back? “Can’t we just leave it to the police or something?”
[Now you are like the police. Magical girl, use your power to reduce the sacrifices of your compatriots.]
A dark passage.
As I was intimidated by the sign and the passageway, which gave off a blatantly back-world atmosphere, the assistant AI urged Black by saying something like that.
I don’t like it.
I don’t want to go in even if I die.
Aside from being scared or fearful, the problem is that I have never been to a club like this.
The club she only knew about was full of druggies, and the moment a woman entered, she was ripped off and kicked around by men full of sexual desire, a place for crazy people who only had orgy sex parties… It is known as.
It makes no sense to enter such a space alone.
Isn’t it the same as throwing a docile sheep into a cage of wild beasts?
I wish they would call another popular magical girl other than me.
Black sent a look of help to the helper AI with a heart of earnest pleading.
[Do you want to just go in, or do you want to put Mentos in the anus and go in?]
“… You can just go in!”
As if it didn’t care about Black’s pitiful eyes, the helper AI drone threatened Mentos by holding it up on one of its mechanical arms.
In order to avoid the ending where her butt explodes, Black has no choice but to go beyond that scary passage.
Damn you.
A trashy drone.
A lump of steel without a human heart.
Later, I will pour cola inside the machine and destroy it, you damn drone.
* * *
The passage leading to the basement, carefully go down the stairs… Eventually, we entered the club below.
The door was locked during breaks during the day, but the lock, which was in the form of an electronic lock, was easily handled by the assistant AI.
In many ways, I felt like I could do this, but there was nothing I could do because there was no other way.
“…”
The plan of the club that came in like that.
The decadent space, which should have been filled with colorful lights and exciting music, was now gloomy and quiet, perhaps because it was daytime.
In the dim lighting, where you can barely see the inside, you can see cleaning robots organizing and cleaning up traces from the previous day that have not yet been completely removed.
A few mechanical devices that return tables and chairs and wipe dirt from the floor.
They continue to do their jobs without being wary of the blacks who come in without permission.
Currently, Black has completely erased his presence through magic.
Black’s stealth ability, which allows him to avoid detection even by cameras made up of mechanical devices and programs, allows him to move around the club without difficulty and without being detected.
‘The footprints… After entering this club, he disappeared.’
‘Is it because the traces were erased by the cleaning robots? Even with my magic, it would be impossible to track any further than this.’
If the other person simply came and went as a guest, the situation gets a little worse.
This means that the traces of the culprit, who only visited this place briefly and left again, ended here.
Black was thinking if he should give up like this.
But fortunately, it seemed that the other person was not just a guest here.
This is because small but clear traces of ‘footprints’ were found in a place that clearly appears to be off-limits to unauthorized persons.
―The culprit that Black is looking for now is, You are not just a guest of this club, but an official.
I was vaguely certain of that fact.
And just like that, Black stood in front of a door inside the club.
The place where the ‘footprints’ she is chasing are headed.
Inside the door, I could feel the presence of several people who were clearly affiliated with the club.
Maybe One of them pretending to be popular inside this door, Or All of themThere is a high possibility that he is involved in this incident…
