I Knew There Had to Be Children Inside / Their Onee-sama

He had a rough idea of what had happened last night.

After quietly asking Misaka Sister, Yuxian glanced at the seemingly harmless-looking Fou. He hadn't expected it to have gone to rescue a damsel in distress last night.

Seeing Misaka Mikoto's furrowed brow even in her sleep, Yuxian decided to resolve this matter once and for all.

Now that Fou has Kamijou Touma's spotlight and defeated Accelerator, the only remaining question is 'Last Order'.

He asked the Misaka Sister, "You know where Last Order, right?"

Although Yuxian possessed most of the authority over Academy City and could find the information himself, he naturally wouldn't go through the trouble of finding a faster way.

The Misaka Sister, who own the Misaka Network, must know the location of Last Order.

Misaka Sister gently turned her head away. Yuxian noticed her hesitation and immediately added, "I have the authority."

He explained his access codes.

After confirming Yuxian's access code, Misaka Sister did not hesitate any longer and told Yuxian the location of the research institute where Last Order was located.

Yuxian decided to find the Last Order immediately to prevent any unforeseen circumstances.

The Last Order serves as the command tower and stabilizer of the Misaka Network, a safety device created to prevent the "Sisters" from rebelling and going out of control.

To ensure that researchers without offensive capabilities could easily master her, they deliberately left her in an incomplete state, secretly placing her in a culture vessel.

Ideally, one would be in a vegetative state, devoid of consciousness, but without a certain degree of self-awareness, it is impossible to connect to the "Misaka Network".

Because neither the body nor the personality has been fully adjusted, it is in a very unstable state and cannot survive for long outside the incubator.

Yuxian must bring out the Last Order as soon as possible. Only in this way can the Misaka Sister be freed from being controlled and have no worries about the future.

As for the physical condition of the Last Order, Yuxian believed that entrusting it to the Heaven Canceller would definitely solve the problem.

He waved goodbye to Misaka Sister and prepared to head to the research institute.

"Fu..."

When Fou saw Yuxian about to leave, she called out softly and looked at Misaka Sister with some reluctance.

Seeing this, Yu Xian Yuxian let it stay here with Misaka Sister, since they would return here soon anyway.

Chapter 26, Section 199: I knew there would be children inside.

Following the address provided by Misaka Sister, Yuxian quickly found the research institute.

"What are you doing here, Master?" Illya asked in a low voice.

Little Jeanne shook her head. "I don't know, it must be something important."

"Let me guess..." Gretel blinked, "I think there must be a child in here."

"Not necessarily..." Abby disagreed.

Gretel said, "How about we make a bet? I bet there are children inside."

"I also bet there are children in there."

"Me too."

"I also..."

When Gretel heard that everyone had bet on one side, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.

How can we gamble then?

Yuxian entered the research institute with ease; it was very deserted inside.

After the failure of the 'Ability Unlimited', most of the researchers left, leaving only a handful of people in the once-large research institute, which was on the verge of bankruptcy.

Upon arriving at the office inside the research institute, Yuxian met the only remaining researcher, Yoshikawa Kikyo.

The office was in a mess, clearly having just experienced a significant disturbance.

Yoshikawa Kikyo sat calmly on a table covered with documents, sipping her milk tea.

"At this time of year, people are still coming to this research institute. Are you new investors here to take over?"

Yoshikawa Kikyo looked at Yuxian and his group with curiosity.

She clearly Yuxian Xian, who was bringing a group of children, for a wealthy young man who had come to take over the research institute, which was on the verge of bankruptcy.

Yuxian smiled and said, "I'm not a rich man. I don't have the money to buy such a large research institute."

"So, you've come here for..."

Not being an investor, Yoshikawa Kikyo's curiosity was piqued by Yuxian's purpose.

"My Last Order."

Yuxian softly uttered the name, causing Yoshikawa Kikyo was calmly drinking tea, to change her expression and slowly put down her teacup.

Do you have supporting documentation?

Yoshikawa Kikyo scrutinized Yuxian carefully. She didn't believe that the person in front of her was sent by another research institute, so his purpose was highly suspicious.

Yuxian scratched his head. He hadn't really thought that much about it; he had just impulsively come here.

The situation is a bit tricky now; Yoshikawa Kikyo's attitude clearly won't allow him to take the Last Order away so easily.

He didn't want to resort to force against Yoshikawa Kikyo in front of him. As far as he knew, this researcher was a good person and very serious and responsible towards the Misaka Sister and Last Order.

Yoshikawa Kikyo saw Yuxian's actions and narrowed her eyes, staring at Yuxian.

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous." Yuxian gently pressed his hands together to help Yoshikawa Kikyo relax.

"I'm here to resolve the issue of the Misaka Sister. You've probably heard about the attack on the research institute yesterday, right?"

Yuxian quickly explained, "That Railgun already knows about the 'Ability Unlimited' and is retaliating. I came here to solve this problem in order to prevent more research institutes from being damaged."

"She knows..."

Yoshikawa Kikyo remained silent, and the experiment she conducted using Misaka Mikoto's genetic map revealed a deep sense of guilt towards Misaka Mikoto.

After a moment of silence, she looked up and asked, "You know about this plan, so it seems you have considerable authority. I wonder how you plan to resolve this?"

Seeing that Yoshikawa Kikyo's attitude was softening, Yuxian quickly said, "I know a good doctor who can help adjust the Last Order."

"Letting Last Order live with Misaka Mikoto is a good decision."

"Is that so..." Yoshikawa Kikyo pondered.

"In that case, come with me."

She led Yuxian to the research lab where Last Order was located. There were no other Misaka Sister there, only Last Order, who was still in the nutrient tank.

Wow! I knew there would be kids here!

When Gretel came in, the first thing she saw when she saw the Last Order was that she exclaimed, with an expression that said, "Just as I expected."

"She has a cowlick on her head!" Several children gathered around, peering over the nutrient tank to comment on the Last Order.

"Hmm, they look so cute. No wonder Master couldn't wait to come over."

"She seems to still be sleeping."

Yuxian said helplessly, "Don't block the way. We need to get her out of there now."

The children then walked away from the nutrient tank, but their eyes remained fixed on the Last Order.

Yoshikawa Kikyo brought the clothes she had prepared for her and awakened the Last Order in the nutrient tank.

As she wiped the body of the Last Order with a towel, she said, "Her body has remained at this stage, and it's probably unlikely that it will grow any bigger."

"I know you guys. You've come to pick me up, right?" Misaka Misaka said happily.

As Yoshikawa Kikyo was wiping her body, the Last Order kept twisting her body and looking at Yuxian and his group.

She had already learned about Yuxian from the Misaka Sister through the Misaka Network, but her eyes still revealed a very curious look.

"Don't move, I'll dress you now." Last Order's constant swaying made it difficult for Yoshikawa Kikyo to dress her.

After getting dressed, Last Order skipped over to the children, glancing at one and then at the other.

This was the first time she had ever seen so many children her age.

"Let's go." Yuxian didn't want to stay here any longer.

He never really got used to the cold, impersonal atmosphere of a research institute.

"Where are we going? Are you taking me to find my sister?" Misaka Misaka looked at you with expectant eyes.

"I'm taking you to be sold!"

Seeing that the Last Order was completely unguarded, Yu Yuxian put on a stern face and tried to scare her.

"Please don't sell me." Misaka Misaka pleaded dejectedly.

Little Jeanne stepped forward to comfort her, saying, "Don't worry, Master would never sell a child."

"Why do you call him Master?" Misaka Misaka wondered.

Last Order Little Jeanne struck up a conversation with him, he immediately abandoned his Yuxian and began chatting with Little Jeanne.

"Because he is the Master."

"Why is he Master? Misaka Misaka doesn't understand."

As Yu Xian walked out of the research institute with his Last Order, he turned to Yoshikawa Kikyo, Yuxian, and said, "What are you planning to do? I'm afraid there's no point in staying here any longer."

"Ah—I'm unemployed!" Yoshikawa Kikyo sighed. "I want to try and find a job as a teacher."

"Aren't you going to be a researcher anymore?"

"After this research institute closes down, I'm afraid my reputation will make it difficult to find a research job again. Becoming a teacher was once my dream, and I want to try again."

Upon hearing Yoshikawa Kikyo's plans, Yuxian said no more. Everyone has their own dreams, and he smiled as he said goodbye to her.

"Good luck."

Chapter 27, Section 200: Their Older Sister

Carrying Last Order, Yuxian slowly walked back, considering how to explain Last Order to Misaka Mikoto.

Another issue is how to get Misaka Mikoto to accept Last Order and live with her.

Both of these matters require careful consideration.

Misaka Mikoto has just suffered a blow, and it's not certain that she can bring Last Order with her without any resentment.

"Wow! Is this an automatic cleaning robot? Misaka Misaka was very surprised by this round barrel that can sweep the floor by itself."

Throughout the journey, the ever-curious Last Order constantly expressed surprise and admiration for new and unusual things.

Her mouth was constantly talking. Having spent a long time in the nutrient tank, everything was new and exciting to her as she entered the city for the first time.

Although she could learn about these things through the Misaka Network, there was a huge difference between knowing and seeing them in person; it was a completely different experience for her.

The energetic and Gretel Last Order, she was very close to nursery rhymes and others, and seemed to have no sense of defensiveness towards anyone.

Yuxian frowned and said, "You're too careless. That won't do. You need to change that in the future."

"Why?" Misaka tilted her head, puzzled.

"Because there are many bad people in this world."

"Why are there so many bad people?" Misaka Misaka asked, seeking to get to the bottom of it.

Yuxian was defeated by her and gave up on continuing to educate Last Order. He decided to leave this matter to Misaka Mikoto to deal with.

When Yuxian arrived at Misaka Sister's hospital room with Last Order, Misaka Mikoto had already woken up.

"Wow! It's Onee-sama!" Misaka Misaka's eyes were filled with adoration.

Upon seeing Misaka Mikoto, Last Order immediately cupped his chin in his hands and stared intently at Misaka Mikoto.
