Baifeng Uesugi sneered.

" Tatsuya took him under control."

Baifeng Uesugi immediately ordered Tatsuya Shiba to make his move, giving the other party no chance to react.

"Yes."

Upon hearing this, Tatsuya Shiba immediately stepped forward, pulled the committee's testing personnel out of the testing equipment, and forcefully shoved him to the ground.

"You really underestimate us. You dared to tamper with Miyuki's belongings right under my nose. Did you think we wouldn't notice?"

The inspection revealed something implanted in the CAD software; it's unlikely to be a simple virus. Furthermore, all the incidents at this conference couldn't have been orchestrated by you alone. Tell me your accomplices and who your mastermind is."

Baifeng Uesugi grabbed his hair and stared coldly at the committee's testing personnel, speaking in a chilling voice.

Because Baifeng Uesugi and his group acted so quickly, it took a while for the people inside the tent to react, and they all exclaimed in surprise.

Hearing the commotion inside, the committee staff outside the tent also came in one after another. They originally wanted to go forward to rescue their colleagues, but when they heard what Baifeng Uesugi said, they all turned serious and stopped their intention to go forward. They all stood there at a loss.

After all, tampering with a contestant's CAD file is no small matter, and it's not something they can interfere with.

"It seems you're not planning to say yes, so..."

The person in front of him was just a lowly errand boy; whether he lived or died wouldn't make much difference. Just as Baifeng Uesugi was about to make a move, a voice interrupted him.

"What happened?"

The newcomer was an elderly man with a full head of white hair and a weathered face; Tatsuya Shiba immediately recognized him.

" Kudou," Tatsuya Shiba greeted upon recognizing the visitor as Kudou.

Kudou gestured to the committee members who had come with him, instructing them to take control of the suspect in front of him, whom Tatsuya Shiba had mentioned as having caused multiple incidents during the conference.

Baifeng Uesugi also saw that the person who came was Kudou. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he had no choice but to hand him over. However, before handing him over, he left something interesting inside the person's body.

If they were to use sophisticated instruments to examine the body at this moment, they would discover that there was a small, glowing white snake inside the person's body, constantly moving around.

This is an S-rank magic mastered by Baifeng Uesugi, called "Gossamer Lightning." As thin as silver threads, it can enter a person's body undetected. As long as the caster activates the magic and makes it go berserk, the person affected by this magic will feel the power of lightning from the inside out.

Of course, it won't kill them all at once; its power will gradually increase.

"I'm very sorry," Baifeng Uesugi apologized after releasing his hand.

"You're students from First High School, Uesugi -kun and Shiba, right?" Kudou inquired.

"The match the day before yesterday was very exciting, but what just happened?"

" Kudou Kushima, due to the discovery of illegal use of CAD software by our school's contestants, Mr. Percent and I are apprehending the perpetrator and preparing to interrogate his accomplices and those behind the scenes."

Tatsuya Shiba explained.

"I see."

Kudou- do.

Meanwhile, the people who came with Kudou also checked Miyuki Shiba's CAD and told Kudou the results.

"Yes, it was indeed implanted with a foreign object. It was the Electronic Cicada used by the Eastern Army mages during the Eastern Archipelago campaign when I was still in active duty Electronic Cicada is a delayed-action spell that infiltrates electronic devices to disrupt their operation. Our army suffered a lot before discovering this spell."

Do you know about Electronic Cicada?

Kudou told Tatsuya Shiba and Baifeng Uesugi the results of the examination and asked them questions.

Do you know what Electronic Cicada is?

"I don't know," Bai Feng Ueyama replied simply.

"No, this is the first time I've heard of the term 'Electronic Cicada' either, but if something like a virus has infiltrated our own system, we can tell immediately," said Tatsuya Shiba.

"I see." Kudou said with surprise, then looked at the prisoner and asked.

"So where did you get this warlock?"

The prisoner didn't say anything upon hearing this, but even without his explanation, the matter was already fairly clear.

"Well then, Uesugi -kun, Shiba- kun, it's time for you two to get back to the arena," Kudou said, looking at Baifeng Uesugi and Tatsuya Shiba.

"As for the CAD software, you should have a spare, right? Then use the spare. Since this has happened today, there's no need to do any more checks."

"The committee has been infiltrated by unscrupulous individuals, an unprecedented and disgraceful act. I will explain the reasons to you later."

Although Kudou's tone was old and weak, the committee members standing nearby were all panicked upon hearing it, and cold sweat began to involuntarily bead on their foreheads.

It's clear that Kudou's words put immense pressure on the committee.

" Baifeng Uesugi, Tatsuya Shiba, I hope we can talk about that in the future," Kudou said, looking at Baifeng Uesugi.

"Yes," Baifeng Uesugi replied.

"Okay, if there's a chance," Tatsuya Shiba said.

"Then I'll look forward to that opportunity."

As he spoke, Kudou walked out of the tent.

After Baifeng Uesugi and Tatsuya Shiba returned to the temporary residence of First High School First High School, they found that the students around them were whispering and plotting against them.

"Brother, Bai Feng." Miyuki Shiba ran up to the two of them with a worried expression.

Although Miyuki Shiba was calling out both of their names, her gaze was definitely fixed on Baifeng Uesugi.

Tatsuya Shiba felt quite helpless; after all, he was Shiba's older brother, yet he was being ignored like this.

(Note: In this book, the Shiba siblings are biological siblings. This is for plot purposes, so please don't criticize.)

Don't worry, we're fine.

Baifeng Uesugi laughed.
