A Scientific Urban Detective

"Hmm?" Lin Wuming turned his head to look at the girl who had escaped with Dolly, suddenly remembering, she was Kyouzaku Misaka, what was her plot in the original work?

Besides her later corruption and obsession with assassinating Chairman Aleister, Kyouzaku Misaka's plot at this time should be...

"Kyouzaku Misaka..."

"That's me." The girl nodded quickly, while also sizing up the boy in the wheelchair.

——He doesn't seem special... except that he has to sit in a wheelchair because of his injured hands and feet. I don't know what's so special about him that Shokuhou Misaki trusts him so much...

Lin Wuming suddenly asked, "Were you locked up before?"

"Yes, yes, I was locked up in a dark room for a long time." Kyouzaku Misaka nodded repeatedly.

"Can you tell me the details?" Lin Wuming continued to ask.

——It's not surprising that Lin Wuming knows about this, Shokuhou Misaki must have told him.

Kyouzaku Misaka thought to herself, but then remembered the "confidentiality principle" that Shokuhou Misaki had repeatedly emphasized, so she concealed Shokuhou Misaki's existence and changed her story to say that she had secretly escaped using "liquefied shadows."

This was also a unified statement agreed upon with Shokuhou Misaki before the operation.

Lin Wuming patiently listened to Kyouzaku Misaka's story.

It was completely different from the original plot he knew, which was normal, after all, in the original plot, Kyouzaku Misaka was not rescued from the dark room until the "Artificial Construct" was destroyed. Shokuhou Misaki never noticed her from beginning to end...

However, Lin Wuming noticed that Shokuhou Misaki's figure still did not appear in her current "story"; even in today's operation, including when calling for help, Shokuhou Misaki remained invisible throughout, as if such a person did not exist at all.

Therefore, Lin Wuming roughly guessed Shokuhou Misaki's plan.

——Continue to lurk in the research institute?

Looking back at the research building of the "Artificial Construct", Lin Wuming suddenly shouted loudly: "Teacher Yomiikawa, please come here! This girl is also a victim!"

Lin Wuming said, "Her name is Kyouzaku Misaka, and she was also an experimentee of the 'Artificial Construct', but she was illegally detained until she escaped not long ago and rescued the girl Dolly just now."

"Illegal detention?" Not only Yomiikawa Aiho, but also the other guards gathered around, "Are you telling the truth? Are you lying to us? Do you have any evidence?"

Because the adults suddenly approached, Kyouzaku Misaka cautiously hid behind the wheelchair.

Under Lin Wuming's encouragement and urging, she said, "What I said is true! As for evidence... does the room where I was detained count?"

Yomiikawa Aiho squatted down and carefully observed the girl, and then called the doctor who had not yet left.

The doctor performed a simple examination on Kyouzaku Misaka's body, and then nodded: "She is indeed a bit malnourished, but it's not serious."

"Because I've been out for a few days, maybe I've rested well?"

"Okay, I'll apply for a search warrant right away." Yomiikawa Aiho nodded, "Illegal detention and child abuse are enough to conduct a thorough search here!"

Then, Kyouzaku Misaka was also forcibly sent to the hospital for treatment.

The last ambulance at the scene had not yet left. At this time, Yomiikawa Aiho finally had time to carefully observe Lin Wuming.

"...Don't worry, there was really no fighting this time," Lin Wuming said, "So I wasn't injured."

Looking at Tora Fuumitsu standing next to him, the latter was wrapping a ribbon around her ponytail. Noticing Yomiikawa Aiho's gaze, she opened her arms and spun around.

"I'm fine too."

Yomiikawa Aiho was relieved, and then chopped Lin Wuming on the head with a hand chop.

"You little bastard! Don't you ever jump off a building again! You almost scared me to death, you know!" She was still scared by Lin Wuming's previous act of jumping from the thirteenth floor.

"I have Nen ability..." Lin Wuming muttered, noticing that Yomiikawa Aiho raised her hand chop again, and then quickly straightened his attitude, "I know I was wrong, I will try not to mess around like this next time!"

"Hmm? Try not to?"

"Just in case," Lin Wuming said, "In an emergency, flying down is indeed much faster than the elevator."

It would take some time for the search warrant to be approved, so there was no need for Lin Wuming and the others to continue staying here.

So, in a police car, Lin Wuming and Tora Fuumitsu were taken home by Yomiikawa Aiho.

Also in the car were two other male guards, one of whom was the real commander of this operation, the captain of the heavy equipment unit.

"Speaking of which," the captain suddenly said on the way, "Why would that girl named Kyouzaku Misaka call classmate Wuming for help?"

"Logically speaking, in that kind of dangerous environment, after finally getting a mobile phone and getting a chance to ask the outside world for help, calling the police should be the first choice, right?"

The latest novel is first published at Six Nine Book Bar!

"Hey!" Yomiikawa Aiho couldn't help but turn her head and glared at him, "Don't use interrogation methods and techniques!"

The captain laughed: "Sorry, sorry, it's a professional habit. I don't suspect classmate Wuming and Kyouzaku Misaka, I'm just curious."

Lin Wuming said, "It's simple, Kyouzaku Misaka doesn't trust adults—even the security teachers."

"Huh?" The three security teachers in the car were surprised, but recalling Kyouzaku Misaka's expression and body language during the conversation just now, they realized that Lin Wuming was right.

"She was hurt too deeply by the adults in the laboratory, right?" Tora Fuumitsu said, "I don't find it difficult to understand her attitude."

For a time, the car fell silent.

"Tsk, I'll urge the search warrant process again when I get back." The captain showed a helpless expression, and then quickly cheered up and asked the second question, "How did Kyouzaku Misaka know your phone number?"

"Captain Haya, there should be a limit to suspicion!" Yomiikawa Aiho protested again.

This time, Captain Haya ignored her and stared seriously into Lin Wuming's eyes.

Although emotionally he stood on Lin Wuming's side, the main purpose of this operation for Captain Haya and the heavy equipment unit he led was to stop Lin Wuming from going berserk and prevent him from going on a killing spree again.

In the security force, there were also quite a few people who insisted that Lin Wuming's spirit was too unstable and very dangerous.

Although it wasn't to the point where he needed to be punished, he had to be closely monitored to prevent him from going berserk again.

The security force's experts had done a personality profile of Lin Wuming, and the conclusion was "precocious". This boy's mind and personality were frighteningly mature, not at all like a fourteen-year-old boy, and even more stable than many adults.

A boy who is good at enduring and hiding his true thoughts, and as a level 3 strong ability user, his IQ is far beyond ordinary people.

This combination of personality and intelligence, from the perspective of the security force, is too easy to associate with "high-IQ crime".
