A Scientific Urban Detective

Unfortunately, although Kuroko Shirai was determined and resolved to take some action, she didn't know where to start.

After all, even the hospital didn't know where Lin Wuming had gone.

——First, I need to find out where Wuming-senpai is.

Shirai Kuroko remembered a friend she had recently met in Judgment, a girl named Kazari Uiharu who seemed very good at investigative work, but in this situation, it didn't seem very suitable for her to use her talents.

"Kofū Misaka-senpai… no, she probably wouldn't know much either." Shirai Kuroko shook her head, rejecting her idea again. "Hmm, Wuming-senpai's partner… Hōki-san? The problem is, she seems even harder to find than Wuming-senpai…"

Just as Shirai Kuroko was at a loss, a program playing on the TV gave her inspiration.

It was an interview program featuring a Level 5 "Mental Out."

"According to reliable sources, Wuming-senpai and this Shokuhō-san seem to have a good relationship." Shirai Kuroko's eyes lit up.

As a public figure, Misaki Shokuhō's whereabouts were much easier to grasp!

...

"So~" Misaki Shokuhō played with the remote control in her hand, while sizing up the Spatial Transfer user in front of her, "Shirai-san came to stalk me?"

Shirai Kuroko subconsciously smoothed her hair: "Actually, I didn't intend to stalk you. I originally just wanted to ask you about Wuming-senpai's whereabouts. But, when I found you, I discovered you seemed to be planning something…"

Out of curiosity, and the "occupational instinct" of a Judgment member, it eventually turned into stalking.

"By the way, when did Shokuhō-san notice me?" Shirai Kuroko asked.

"Probably in the parking lot," Misaki Shokuhō said.

"Eh? Then I was exposed from the very beginning!"

"I'm very alert, you know!" Misaki Shokuhō said smugly. "Well, you see, someone has been hiding in the dark trying to hurt me, so I can't afford not to be vigilant."

"That's true," Shirai Kuroko nodded in agreement. "It seems being a Level 5 is quite difficult."

Misaki Shokuhō looked at Shirai Kuroko with interest—before meeting Mikoto Misaka, she was a pretty normal and serious good girl.

...

——Eh~ isn't this quite normal?

After seeing Shirai Kuroko in person and talking to her, Lin Wuming gave the same judgment.

"As expected, Mikoto Misaka is the one who's poisonous, right?" Misaki Shokuhō complained. "Isn't Shirai Kuroko, who hasn't met her, very cute!"

At this time, Shirai Kuroko frowned: "Wuming-senpai, is this your daily life as a hero?"

While speaking, she was facing a stack of manuscripts on the table: "We should have made a contribution, right? We did stop the conspiracy of an evil organization and caught a fugitive, right? Why do we have to write a self-criticism instead?"

"It's not a self-criticism, it's a case report," Lin Wuming said. "The security guards need us to report the entire process of the incident in detail—this is actually a normal procedure, and it's not deliberately targeting anyone."

After thinking about it, Lin Wuming added: "Also, this is not 'a hero's daily life,' but a Judgment member's daily life—I've retired from being a hero."

"Eh~~" Shirai Kuroko couldn't help but complain, "The justice I expected isn't like this!"

"Procedural justice is also a kind of justice," Lin Wuming said with a smile. "Alright, don't rack your brains in front of the blank paper. The report also has a format, just fill in the corresponding content."

Lin Wuming took on the responsibility of a "senpai," teaching his junior some "workplace tips."

"Normally speaking, ordinary Judgment members wouldn't be able to summarize something like this, right?" Shirai Kuroko was dumbfounded. "Senpai, how skilled are you at this?"

"Actually, I haven't written many reports," Lin Wuming explained.

Because in most cases, Lin Wuming cooperated with the security forces to take notes, and the security forces were responsible for editing the documents for the report. Lin Wuming only needed to sign his name at the end.

As for the template Lin Wuming had in his hand now, it was actually copied from Aihō Yomikawa.

Lin Wuming felt that he would use it sooner or later, so he prepared it in advance.

"Wuming-senpai is really… used to this kind of thing," Misaki Shokuhō complained.

"Of course, after all…" Lin Wuming thought in his heart, "In a sense, I'm more familiar with this kind of thing than with Nen abilities!"

Thus, Shirai Kuroko and Lin Wuming's first meeting ended in the process of co-writing a report.

This experience also added a bit of realistic weight to the "justice" in Shirai Kuroko's heart.

"Junzo Chūdo failed again… By the way, who is this guy?" Kihara Gensei listened to the latest information reported by his subordinates.

"He's the one who runs the Artificial Atelier, trying to develop the 'Ideal Ability,'" Amata Kihara introduced.

"So it's that guy." Kihara Gensei nodded casually. "He ended up being schemed against by Mental Out and Lin Wuming together? He lost fairly."

"Trying to win over that Lin Wuming was their biggest mistake!" Kihara Gensei commented impolitely. "Eliminating those who are stronger than themselves, instead of trying to improve their own strength—how could such a hopeless group possibly gain Lin Wuming's approval?"

"Sir, you seem to have a high opinion of Lin Wuming?" Amata Kihara asked.

"Lin Wuming, that boy has interfered with my plans once again," Kihara Gensei said. "He even completely controlled Accelerator! Isn't it normal to have a high opinion of him?"

"That…" Amata Kihara hesitated, "Shouldn't it just be a coincidence? Wasn't there research and analysis done? Lin Wuming isn't targeting our experiments…"

"Regardless of whether he's intentionally targeting us or not," Kihara Gensei said, "he has now, in fact, become a threat to our research. If we don't get rid of him and let that Accelerator brat waver again, our experiments won't be able to move forward."

Amata Kihara nodded in agreement: "You're right, sir! So… what do you plan to do?"

"Eliminate the interference," Kihara Gensei said, "but that might be a little difficult, right?"

Junzo Chūdo had already taken assassination action, but not only did he fail to kill Lin Wuming, but he was also caught off guard and suffered heavy losses.

Although Kihara Gensei also had a capable armed force under his command, to be honest, he wasn't sure that they could kill Lin Wuming with 100% certainty.

——Lin Wuming's combat performance was too outrageous, and he seemed to be particularly adept at dealing with long-range sniper attacks.

Therefore, he had to think of another way.
