The next day.
The day of the experiment had arrived.
The scientist specifically responsible for the experiment took Denji to the laboratory, and Asaba Kotone went along.
Ordinary people certainly were not allowed into somewhere as important as the laboratory, but Asaba Kotone was no ordinary person. In the eyes of the people at the Experimental Base, he was an important figure sent by the military, so they all treated him with great respect, much less restricted his freedom of movement.
