A Scientific Urban Detective

#247 - The whereabouts of Misaka Sister

Tiger Honey instantly jumped up, glaring at Misaki Shokuhou. By now, she already knew that the remote control was Misaki Shokuhou's weapon, and the action of "pressing the remote control" was a manifestation of Misaki Shokuhou's ability.

How could she not be nervous when a Level 5 was using their superpower in her direction?

Although Tiger Honey immediately realized that Misaki Shokuhou's ability was not targeting her, but Lin Wuming... this made her even more excited.

Tiger Honey held a thin french fry between her fingers as a snack – under the effect of her "Absolute Penetration," even a french fry could pierce through a steel plate!

"Don't be nervous..." Misaki Shokuhou, however, appeared calm and composed. She casually placed the remote control on the nearby table, then raised her hands in a harmless gesture. "I'm just trying to understand the situation. To avoid unnecessary troubles... Senior Wuming agreed, didn't he?"

"Although it was a mental agreement," Lin Wuming also put down the game controller. "Theoretically, if you didn't use your superpower on me first, you wouldn't be able to see my permission."

"Anyway, as long as the result is good, don't worry about the details." As Misaki Shokuhou spoke, she walked forward, ignored the still-watchful Tiger Honey, and sat in the middle of the sofa. "Actually, I came because of Kanzaki Kyouiku, but I didn't expect to hear the news of Senior Wuming's injury."

Lin Wuming immediately showed a realization. She said it was about Kanzaki Kyouiku, but it was actually for Dolly... no, strictly speaking, it was for the "Misaka Sister" matter.

Because today in the shopping district, Kanzaki Kyouiku mistakenly identified Misaka Mikoto herself as Dolly, almost leading to a meeting between Misaka Mikoto and her clone.

This was undoubtedly a very important matter that had to be treated with caution.

Kanzaki Kyouiku also knew the seriousness, so she immediately told Misaki Shokuhou after returning.

And Misaki Shokuhou immediately rushed back to the apartment, preparing to meet with Lin Wuming as soon as possible to discuss the future development of the situation – these were parts that did not happen in the original plot.

But not long after she returned, she heard the news that Lin Wuming had been injured again and went to the hospital.

Until recently, after Lin Wuming returned home and Yomikawa Aiho left, Misaki Shokuhou seized the opportunity to visit.

"As expected... it's an enemy and event not in the memory information, so he was injured?" Misaki Shokuhou thought silently in her heart.

The event that happened today did not appear in the original work, so Lin Wuming's advantage as a "time-traveler" could not be used, causing him to be caught off guard and return to the wheelchair again.

"Senior Wuming, I hope you recover soon." Delivering a blessing, Misaki Shokuhou seemed somewhat insincere.

But because she could see Lin Wuming's true thoughts, she knew that Lin Wuming's injury was indeed not serious, and there was no need to waste too much time and energy on greetings and blessings.

"I will bring gifts next time," Misaki Shokuhou said. "But this time, I really have important matters to discuss, so please forgive my little impoliteness!"

Her apology was actually more for Tiger Honey to hear; because Lin Wuming would not care about these trivial details, but Tiger Honey, due to prejudice and "hostility," would pick faults from various angles.

——My sudden visit was indeed impolite.

"Senior Wuming, did you act with Misaka Mikoto today?" Misaki Shokuhou asked with a serious face.

This was the main purpose of her visit.

Although strictly speaking, Misaki Shokuhou and Misaka Mikoto were not acquainted, let alone met.

But perhaps because she had read the original plot in advance, Misaki Shokuhou felt that her ill-fated relationship with Misaka Mikoto seemed to have started early.

Hearing the name Misaka Mikoto always made her feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

——Especially since Senior Wuming valued that "Railgun" so much, it was even more unpleasant!

"But those are not the point!" Under the excitement of her emotions, she accidentally revealed her true feelings. Misaki Shokuhou quickly cheered up, "The current focus is, should we let Misaka Mikoto know about this?"

——About Dolly, the Misaka Sisters, and the "Mass Production Ability User" plan.

Out of caution and tacit understanding, Misaki Shokuhou did not say it explicitly, but Lin Wuming also knew what she wanted to convey.

——How is the investigation of the "Mass Production Ability User" plan going?

Lin Wuming turned and asked silently in his mind.

Because he knew about the existence of "Lagging Thread," Lin Wuming was also very careful and cautious, directly choosing to communicate silently through Misaki Shokuhou's superpower.

"Unfortunately, I have tried very hard to investigate," Misaki Shokuhou responded. "But I still haven't found anything. All the clues have been cut off, and the only gain is finding Dolly."

These days, Misaki Shokuhou has been running around, busy with various things, of course not just for the enrollment and future life of herself and her companions, but also a considerable part of her energy was spent on finding the "Mass Production Ability User" plan.

The latest novel is first published at Six 9 Books Bar!

Not only Dolly and Taoli, Misaki Shokuhou also wanted to save all the other Misaka Sisters, preferably preventing this tragic experiment from happening in the first place.

Of course, Misaki Shokuhou also knew the difficulty and danger involved; once her intentions were exposed and Chairman Aleister discovered that his plan was threatened, even a Level 5 would probably be mercilessly eliminated, right?

So Misaki Shokuhou could only act cautiously, using other things as a cover, and secretly investigate.

Unfortunately, the "Mass Production Ability User" plan was well hidden, and Misaki Shokuhou did not find any clues. The only gain was finding Taoli in a certain research institute – also known as "Dolly Two."

They were the same batch of Misaka Sisters who were "manufactured." The original plan was for two bodies to share one consciousness. After Dolly's body naturally collapsed, the consciousness would be transferred to the backup body to extend its "service life."

But now, because Meidou Sougi intervened and forcibly saved Dolly's life, the "Dolly Two" as a backup body lost its original purpose.

Because he knew the original plot, Lin Wuming called this "backup" Misaka Sister Taoli, as a distinction from Dolly.

However, even the original plot did not mention in detail where Taoli was located. Therefore, it took Misaki Shokuhou a lot of time to find her.

But the investigation about the Misaka Sisters ended here – all the clues pointed to Taoli and then stopped.

It was as if the entire "Misaka Clone" incident had completely ended and perfectly concluded.
