A Scientific Urban Detective

#110 - Possibility of fighting against level 5

Lin Wuming always made the worst-case scenario, especially when facing important events. Therefore, despite only receiving a somewhat nonsensical phone call, he was mentally prepared to face the dark side school and engage in direct combat with "Unexplored Territory" Kakine Teitoku.

With the combination of Nen ability and "Bullet Time," Lin Wuming was confident in fighting a Level 4 esper, but Level 5…

"No, I have no confidence at all! The gap between two levels is not as simple as adding one!" Lin Wuming couldn't help but want to scratch his head.

"Are Level 5s very strong?" Komori Kirisaki said, waving the spoon she was using to scoop cake, "Don't worry, I'll deal with him when the time comes. No matter how strong he is, I can pierce him!"

Seemingly subconsciously activating her superpower, the spoon in her hand looked much sharper.

"…Calm down," Lin Wuming quickly comforted her, "Your ability can indeed assassinate the opponent, but dying together is not the result we want."

Komori Kirisaki's superpower is Level 4 "Absolute Penetration." Although it is only a Great Ability, it inexplicably has the prefix "Absolute" in its name.

So, it is conceivable that at least in the attribute of "penetration," Komori Kirisaki's ability has some special advantage.

At least until now, Lin Wuming has not seen an object that Komori Kirisaki cannot pierce, including his own Nen barrier—this situation even made Lin Wuming doubt the strength of his Nen barrier.

From Lin Wuming's actual feeling, Komori Kirisaki's superpower can indeed be called a well-deserved "Absolute Penetration."

Apart from Accelerator's "Vector Transformation," Lin Wuming couldn't imagine any superpower that Komori Kirisaki couldn't penetrate.

"…Your ability is indeed very strong," seeing the girl's dissatisfied expression, Lin Wuming quickly comforted her, "As long as you can hit the target, there should be nothing you can't pierce. However, extreme power also brings extreme weakness—if you can't hit the target, then everything is over."

Esper who can withstand "Absolute Penetration" are extremely rare, but there are many people who can dodge the attack and prevent themselves from being hit by her fatal stab.

"Are you doubting my strength? I'm not the kind of person who only relies on superpowers," Komori Kirisaki said with a sneer, "As long as I get close, you will definitely not escape my assassination!"

As the "kind of person who only relies on superpowers" in the girl's mouth, Lin Wuming withstood Komori Kirisaki's increasingly fierce gaze and patiently explained.

"Kirisaki, you also said that the premise for your assassination to work is 'getting close'. Unfortunately, there are many espers who can prevent you from getting close. At least, as far as I know, the Level 5s are not existences that you can easily approach."

Komori Kirisaki put down the spoon in her hand and did not continue to refute.

Although she was irritable, she was not completely unreasonable, especially when Lin Wuming calmly and objectively reasoned with her—for no reason, it reminded her of Sakurai-sensei's lectures, and she subconsciously didn't dare to continue being stubborn. As long as she could calm down and think, Komori Kirisaki would also accept reasonable facts.

Lin Wuming looked at his phone again and muttered to himself, "I must find a way to confirm the information again…"

But directly going to the door or calling Misaki Shokuhou was not a good idea.

"Is there any way to find out the movements of the dark side 'School'?" Lin Wuming directly asked Yomikawa Aiho.

"Don't look at me, the information of the dark side organizations is itself a secret and will not be made public," Yomikawa Aiho rolled her eyes, "Also, you are absolutely not allowed to mess around this time!"

She also heard the previous call. Lin Wuming did not avoid her when he answered the phone; however, Yomikawa Aiho was too lazy to care about this kind of thing now—Lin Wuming received all kinds of calls every day and heard all kinds of news, which were difficult to distinguish between true and false.

But most of them were nonsensical false news, which were not worth mentioning at all. Not to mention the dark side organizations, she had even heard several versions of the conspiracy to destroy the world…

Listening to it too much was like the story of "The Boy Who Cried Wolf." Yomikawa Aiho was also numb. As long as Lin Wuming stayed at home, she was too lazy to care about the content of those calls.

For example, this time, the person who called was an adult female voice, and she said some inexplicable things like a riddle person.

It was a completely different style from normal requests or help calls.

If the keyword "dark side organization" had not appeared in the content of the call, and Lin Wuming and Komori Kirisaki's conversation afterward had not been about to fight a Level 5, Yomikawa Aiho would not have interrupted and intervened in this topic at all.

Lin Wuming thought for a while and ultimately did not mention anything about Misaki Shokuhou.

"I'll go visit Keizaku Kanzari and Dolly tomorrow," he said instead.

"Ah, about that Dolly…" Yomikawa Aiho hesitated, but thinking that these two young boys and girls had already had direct contact with Dolly, she continued, "Regarding the matter of that girl Dolly, pay attention to the confidentiality rules—the highest standard, do not inquire, do not disclose… it's best not to contact her either."

"Confidentiality rules, understood."

Komori Kirisaki and Lin Wuming had both passed the Judgment's written examination. Among the nine agreements that must be signed before joining, six and a half were related to "confidentiality."

Of course, they knew what this meant.

Very in accordance with the norms, the two just nodded silently, without saying half a word on this topic.

Most ⊥ New ⊥ Small ⊥ Say ⊥ is ⊥ in ⊥ Six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ Book ⊥⊥ Bar ⊥⊥ First ⊥ Hair!

Komori Kirisaki didn't care, and Lin Wuming already knew the truth, so neither of them showed any curiosity.

Yomikawa Aiho nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, I'll apply for a pass, you can visit those two children tomorrow."

From her words, it was not difficult to infer that Keizaku Kanzari and Dolly were already under the strict protection or "supervision" of the Anti-Skill.

Without permission, others are not allowed to contact them.

Considering the particularity of "Dolly," Lin Wuming expressed understanding of this arrangement, but at the same time lost interest in visiting Keizaku Kanzari.

—Under such strict protection from the Anti-Skill, it should be difficult for her to contact Misaki Shokuhou, right?

Feeling a headache, he went to the kitchen to make himself a cup of tea to refresh himself.

"Drinking tea so late, be careful you can't sleep at night," Yomikawa Aiho reminded him.

"Don't worry, my sleep quality has always been very good," Lin Wuming replied with a smile.

But in fact, the thought of facing Kakine Teitoku made him feel like he couldn't sleep at all.
