Bye bye...
Sorry Erii-chan.
Don't worry.
We'll meet again.
Bye bye!
See you again!
Banri-chan...
Take care.
Banri-chan and I were in the same Child-error facility.
I was shy and had a hard time making friends,
but I became friends with her.
She would always talk to me telepathically.
But after she transferred to a different facility, I didn't hear from her for a while.
But these days, I can hear her voice again.
She's saying, "Help me."
"I'm suffering."
But I don't know where she is. I don't know why she's suffering,
I want to help her, but I can't do anything for her.
Don't worry.
Your friend will be found.
No, I will find her.
Since I'm Judgement, after all!
Uiharu-san...
That's right.
Uiharu is an excellent Judgement member, even though she might not look like it.
You didn't have to say it like that...
Sorry, it just slipped out.
So, please rest assured.
Thank you.
Aren't you tired from all the check ups?
How about getting some rest?
Oh I'm fine.
You mean the Level Upper incident?
Yes.
I had an opportunity to look into the perpetrator, Kiyama Harumi's, past.
That Edasaki girl came up in it.
The Experiment of Induced Explosion for Understanding of Principles of Out of Control Ability...
To think that something like that was going on...
If I remember right, an old man called Kihara was the leader.
Kihara?
You mean, Kihara Gensei?
Who is that?
He's a scientist. Some even think of him as being famous
He's also the so called "Mad Scientist".
He wouldn't have any reluctance conducting tests on humans.
I hear he's missing now.
If that experiment was really conducted, then the children who became test subjects might be the cause of the Poltergeists.
What do you mean?
I mean that those children have become Out of Control Ability Users.
What?
If I remember correctly, those children are still sleeping.
What if their abilities are going out of control without their consciousness?
No way...
So, if the Poltergeists weren't caused by any intentional interference, then they unconsciously caused it?
It's a possibility.
Where are they, now?
After the incident, Antiskill searched for them, but they couldn't find them.
I see.
Well then, finding them should be at the top of our list.
The lucky color for today is pink.
Looks like our fortune's looking good.
H-Hey, wait...
So Edasaki-san is Kiyama's former student,
and you're saying Edasaki-san and the others are causing the Poltergeist?
Well yes, although it's still just a hypothesis.
We won't know anything until we find those children.
But how will we find them?
Well...
I see.
By using the computer, it should be a fairly easy!
After all, this is Uiharu's speciality!
Right, Uiharu?
Of course I will find them.
I will. However,
since you suspected Haruue-san, are you suspecting her friend as well?
That's enough!
Those children need help...
Onee-sama,
You sure are taking a long bath.
Oh, I was thinking about something.
Fine then.
And what about you?
How about you make up with Uiharu-san?
It's understandable that Uiharu got angry.
However, I haven't done anything wrong as Judgement.
But Uiharu must be feeling like she was betrayed.
Even so, she will surely understand me. That's why...
I believe in her.
Don't just barge in like that saying all that good stuff!
Hey! I had good timing, though, didn't I?!
Shut up!
Here. A get well gift!
It's from an old Taiyaki shop in the 8th Academy District.
From so far away?
You'll know why I went all the way there when you try it!
This is the best Taiyaki in the Academy City!
Oh, the filling is all all bean paste.
Anything else is just wrong.
Oh, they're still warm.
Actually, that's my ability.
I can maintain the temperature of things I'm in contact with like this.
Since I can't hold anything too hot, lukewarm is about the best I can do.
I haven't told Misaka-san and the others about this.
It's my way of giving back.
Because you told us your ability.
Uh... Umm...
It's delicious.
It really is delicious.
According to Kiyama's testimony, ten test subjects were used for human testing.
All of them were left in a vegetative state and taken into different medical facilities within Academy City.
But they're missing, you say?
Yes.
They kept transferring over and over again, and then we finally lost track of them.
I see.
How about taking a break?
No need.
Oh? Where are you going?
Oh, nowhere, really.
Hey, are you thirsty?
Well, I felt kinda uneasy just showing up...
True.
Our relationship is a bit tense at the moment.
We have to find Edasaki-san.
This is for Haruue-san,
for Uiharu-san,
and also for us.
That's right.
Wonder who that is...
Hello, this is Misaka.
What?
Kiyama Harumi was released on bail?
Yes.
I went to the prison to hear from her about that experiment.
That's when I found out.
She was allowed out on bail after all the stuff she did?
I don't know all the details about it, but it seems so.
No way...
Looks like our thread connected to the children just got cut.
Huh?
If I remember correctly, Kiyama caused that incident to try and help those children, right?
If that's the case, then why would she try to use them?
That doesn't surprise me.
Since she used the students here who were hoping for abilities.
No need.
Enough with your stubbornness.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Even you are working so hard, we have no clue about it yet.
Not yet.
There should still be data we can go look into.
Hey that's...
Huh?
"The Possibility of Mass Occurrence of RSPK Syndrome due to Resonance of AIM Diffusion Field"
Resonance?
That's right.
It says the AIM diffusion field resonates among ability users with the same type of abilities.
First, one of them receives interference from the Out of Control Ability User.
Next, ability users of the same type resonate one after the other.
This same type aspect makes things difficult.
Huh?
For example, you, Onee-sama,
you have the ability to control electric and magnetic fields, right?
That means, you would resonate with multiple ability users.
Then...
The same can be said for the ten Child Errors who have gone missing.
If all of them use the Out of Control Ability,
it will have an effect on 78% of all the students.
78%?
That means...
A Poltergeist on that scale could destroy this city.
However, this paper could be wrong.
Look closely at the author.
Kihara Gensei!
I researched him, but as Telestina-san said, his whereabouts are unknown.
All the research facilities related to him have been closed down.
The data is scattered and lost as well.
Anything bothering you?
No, nothing...
Onee-sama!
That's too much!
As much as I'd like to know what kind of dream you're having...
I'm sorry.
All right.
My disguise is perfect!
All right.
Huh?
I might not need this since this place has no electricity.
No doubt.
This is the place.
As I expected, nothing gained.
Nothing is left.
Yes. I'll be leaving.
Level 6 The one who reaches heaven's will without the body of a god
A Certain Scientific Railgun
That's...!
It's you.
Kiyama Harumi, as I thought!
Any business for me—
You caused this incident too?
What will you do if that's the case?
Of course I won't forgive you!
Oh, hey! What the heck is this?
No choice then...
Well done.
You give an electric shock to the dead security.
I didn't intend to do that.
More importantly, what were you doing there?
Why are you released on bail?
What are you trying to do?
There are always scary girls who ride in my car asking me questions.
Huh?
I'm sorry but you will have to leave the questions for later.
Staff Entrance Third New Hospital Wing
This is...
This way.
This is...
You should know, after peeking into my memories.
My students.
As I thought,
you were the one causing the Poltergeists!
That's right.
But,
there's some complicated circumstances leading up to that.
Also,
I'm sorry but, this is a hospital so...
could you refrain from using electrical shocks?
You're the guy from that time.
Long time no see.
What in the world is going on?
Kihara Gensei...
He is the cause of all this.
I shall ask this right here, then.
What is our final goal?
What is the reason Academy City exists?
That's right.
Creation of Level 6
An existence beyond humans...
is nothing other than the creation of Level 6.
A signal transfer circuit different from normal is created within the brain of an Out of Control Ability User.
Various neurotransmitters and hormones are secreted at abnormal rates.
By collecting, concentrating, and distilling the secreted substances,
this Ability Body Crystal was created.
By prescribing this to certain chosen ability users, Level 6 can be created.
The Ability Body Crystal is the torch of science.
It shall illuminate the path long covered in darkness.
Systen - The one who reaches heaven's will without the body of a god.
Would something like that really create Level 6?
Of course.
Really?
It would needlessly cause consciousness issues and may have severe side effects, right?
The experiments are showing steady progress.
How much sacrifice was needed for that?
Sacrifice?
There are no sacrifices in my research.
Of course there aren't.
I don't know how he perceived them, but sacrifices did exist.
After getting involved with that incident and understanding what lead up to it,
Kiyaha Harumi Testimony 01
I came to the conclusion.
The Child Errors Kiyama-kun was trying to "help" were simply test subjects for the Ability Body Crystal.
The "Experiment of Induced Explosion...
for Understanding of Principles of Out of Control Ability" I talked about was just a cover-up.
What you saw was the prescription testing of Ability Body Crystals!
No way...
For something like Level 6 which we don't even have any idea about?
For some crazy experiment,
you're saying these children were screwed like this?
As a doctor, all I can do is to try to save these children.
Fortunately, it didn't take too long to gather all of them.
I still have some power within this city.
I only wanted to hear from the specialist before I woke them up.
That's why you asked for bail?
I was the one who insisted.
I am grateful to you, Doctor.
Thanks to you I was able to use the facilities here,
and now I have a chance to wake these children up.
So, will they be saved?
No, a different problem has occurred.
A problem?
When they got close to waking up, the AIM diffusion field went beyond normal limits.
That means...
Ability going out of control.
It also caused the mass simultaneous occurrence of RSPK syndrome.
Why?
His research seems to have actually been progressing.
The Ability Body Crystal I knew about wouldn't have ever have caused poltergeist.
However, the Ability Body Crystal which had been developed further...
Changed these children into Out of Control Ability Users while they were still asleep.
That means, when they try to wake up...
Yes.
Poltergeist happens.
Is there any other way?
I am developing a vaccine software that should suppress the condition.
However, the core of the Ability Body Crystal is called First Sample.
It's substance was extracted from the first human test subjects.
To complete the vaccine software its data needs to be analyzed, no matter what.
So you were at that lab to...?
I was looking for that data.
Nothing was left though.
But I can't give up.
That data is essential for Ability Body Crystal research.
There's no way it would have been discarded.
It's got to be somewhere.
I will find it no matter what!
What will you do if you can't find it?
I will wake these children.
Knowing Poltergeists will happen?
I can't keep them asleep any longer!
Even so...!
That's...
That's right. We won't let that happen.
Telestina-san.
I'm sorry.
I followed you.
What are you...
the Multi Active Rescue.
We will be protecting these children.
Please obey our orders obediently.
Is that an order?
Yes.
As part of Rescue, we will stop anything that would cause damage to Academy City.
We have a warrant but,
as for me, I would like you to volunteer to hand them over.
It seems to be real.
Rest assured.
We are specialists in saving lives.
We have facilities prepared to protect and treat ability users.
But...
Data that you can not access, we can legally access.
There is a high possibility we can get a hold of the First Sample data you were talking about.
Protect them.
Wait!
What is that for?
You're the one who told me to get in the way if you disagree.
Out of my way!
I'm the only one who can save them!
You're failing!
You used the Level Upper,
you caused Poltergeists,
But you haven't saved even one!
Just a little more...
There's just a little more left to do.
So...
Edasaki-san is crying out for help right now.
Haruue-san, my friend...
she hears her voice.
Send them out.
