A Scientific Urban Detective

#265 - Intelligence from different directions

The Disciplinary Committee themselves are part of the official law enforcement, so they are naturally very clear: after falling into the hands of the security guards, the culprit of this case, the "Explosive Maniac" Metokoba, is actually "safe." Besides being sent to a juvenile reformatory, there will be no further punishment.

Even the trial process will not be public—after all, she is still a minor.

How could the Disciplinary Committee let this go?

You must know that in the serial bombing case caused by Metokoba, dozens of victims have been injured and hospitalized. The main victims are the Disciplinary Committee members, as well as their companions, friends, companions' companions, and friends' friends...

It's not just about avenging these victims, but also about finding an explanation for the face lost by the Disciplinary Committee themselves.

Fortunately, it was the Kiyama Harumi group, who were also members of the Disciplinary Committee, who finally caught Metokoba, which slightly calmed the public anger.

But the chairman knows very well that this is not enough. What everyone really wants to see is Metokoba being judged and receiving the punishment she deserves.

Instead of a secret trial, and finally being thrown into a juvenile reformatory.

So...

The chairman looked at the information she had just obtained and started to think.

"Should we resolve this case before the security forces do?"

Compete for credit with the security forces, and use this to help the Disciplinary Committee regain the "honor" they lost today.

——Although it is impossible to change the verdict on Metokoba, this method should effectively divert everyone's attention.

"Although this will definitely lead to a severe scolding from my superiors and the security teachers..." The chairman pondered, "And we must be careful to avoid casualties—regaining face is one thing, but if any members sacrifice for it, it won't be worth it..."

Without hesitating for too long, the chairman quickly made a decision.

"Kiyama Harumi..." She took out her phone, ready to contact her favored candidate, but quickly stopped her finger, "No, she's still a bit unreliable."

Kiyama Harumi is not the kind of person who likes to take risks. After getting the information, she would probably take the formal channels to deal with it, right?

Shaking her head, the chairman reselected another number.

"Lin Wuming, as a 'hero,' you shouldn't let me down, right?"

...

Lin Wuming hung up the phone, and Hachisuka Mitsuki asked from the side, "Something from the Disciplinary Committee? Why are they looking for you so late?"

Looking at Kamijou Ayusa, who was playing games in the living room, Lin Wuming hesitated for a moment, but still didn't directly reveal the contents of the phone call.

According to the chairman's instructions, she hoped that the Disciplinary Committee could solve the case before the security forces, or at least obtain decisive evidence, instead of simply assisting and cooperating with the security forces in solving the case.

Perhaps valuing Lin Wuming's previous deeds and achievements, the chairman entrusted this important mission to him.

But Lin Wuming's current guardian, Kamijou Ayusa, is a security teacher, so it's naturally not suitable to "conspire" directly in the living room.

Noticing his gaze, Hachisuka Mitsuki immediately understood, leaned forward to Lin Wuming's ear, and whispered, "Then let's go to the room to talk."

Then she pushed the wheelchair and left.

"What is that girl Hachisuka up to again?" Noticing the actions of the two young people behind her, Kamijou Ayusa muttered, but didn't say much.

Anyway, Lin Wuming didn't seem to be in the mood to play games today, so there was no need to keep him by her side.

In Lin Wuming's room, after confirming that Kamijou Ayusa wouldn't hear their conversation, Lin Wuming revealed the information he had obtained from the phone call.

He inexplicably felt a sense of guilt for deliberately hiding it from Kamijou Ayusa.

"Wuming, Hachisuka! We have a guest!" Just then, Kamijou Ayusa's shout suddenly came from the living room.

Lin Wuming and the two quickly came out and saw that Misaki Shokuhou had already entered and was sitting on the sofa looking at them.

This was her second visit in one day.

Hachisuka Mitsuki kept a straight face, still maintaining her prejudice and unwelcome attitude towards Misaki Shokuhou.

Misaki Shokuhou looked over with a smile, greeting them with a natural expression.

"Good evening, we meet again, Wuming-senpai, Hachisuka-san~"

"Why are you here again?" Hachisuka Mitsuki asked with a straight face, her tone without any fluctuations.

"Of course, because I have something I want to discuss with Wuming-senpai." Misaki Shokuhou said with a smile, then looked at Kamijou Ayusa, "Kamijou-sensei, can I temporarily borrow Wuming-senpai from your house?"

"No problem, no problem! Feel free to borrow him!" Kamijou Ayusa said very generously.

"Hey, Kamijou-sensei..." Lin Wuming and Hachisuka Mitsuki looked at her together.

Kamijou Ayusa had a look of excitement, shaking her head and saying, "This is youth!"

"Although I can be sure that you must have misunderstood something somewhere," Lin Wuming sighed, "But..."

He shook his head, misunderstanding is fine, it's better than lying to and deceiving Kamijou-sensei in person...

"But, it's late now, you can't run around!" Kamijou Ayusa added.

"Don't worry, Sensei, we won't be going out." Misaki Shokuhou said, "I'll just borrow Wuming-senpai's room for a little while~"

After saying that, Misaki Shokuhou "hey-ho" stood up, ready to push the wheelchair.

But Hachisuka Mitsuki took the lead, grabbed the handle of the wheelchair, and crashed into the room with a headstrong momentum.

"Well, she's really vigilant." Misaki Shokuhou spread her hands, and then unhurriedly followed.

——But in this way, she didn't refuse her to enter the room.

Arriving at Lin Wuming's room for the first time, Misaki Shokuhou didn't hide her curiosity at all, looking around in a "sightseeing" posture.

When she saw the neatly stacked "Gekota" series of peripherals by the wall, Misaki Shokuhou couldn't help but click her tongue.

Of course, she knew the real purpose of these peripherals, and her mood was complicated—as expected, Wuming-senpai still liked Misaka so much.

"Hey, have you seen enough! Say what you want to say!" Hachisuka Mitsuki urged.

"Okay, okay~" Misaki Shokuhou stopped teasing her and said directly, "Wuming-senpai, I'm actually here to..."

Halfway through her words, Misaki Shokuhou suddenly stopped, widened her eyes and looked carefully at Lin Wuming: "Wuming-senpai, did you also get some information just now?"

"That's right," Lin Wuming nodded, facing Misaki Shokuhou, there was no need to hide it, "Information from the Disciplinary Committee headquarters, we found the time and location information for the new season of the underground arena."
