A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 104 Advice from Kihara

clap, clap, clap...

After hearing Kiyama Haruo's analysis, Kihara Gensei applauded and praised, "As expected of someone I favor, Kiyama-kun's intuition is astonishingly accurate! Even I had to observe him for a long time before realizing this—yes, on the surface, Wuming-kun's characteristic is his precision in manipulating his Nen ability, but a closer look reveals that his true trump card lies in his incredibly fast reaction speed!"

"Huh? You guessed it right!" Kimiya Haruo exclaimed slightly, "Teacher, you're too kind! I just guessed it by chance..."

Kihara Gensei shook his head. "There's no such thing as chance. So-called guesses are simply inferences quickly drawn by the brain after integrating various pieces of information. However, due to differences in daily accumulated data, each person's thinking patterns are also different, ultimately leading to varying degrees of accuracy in guesses. Kiyama-kun, you have a deep understanding and are naturally intelligent, so you can see the essence of something at a glance."

Kimiya Haruo was so delighted that he almost couldn't raise his head because of the praise.

"A careful analysis of all known intelligence reveals," Kihara Gensei returned to the topic, "that Nameless-kun's nerve reflexes and mental reaction speeds far surpass those of ordinary people. This allows him to make the most accurate judgments and manipulations in battle, utilizing his limited telekinesis to the most appropriate ends. With this gift, Nameless-kun's telekinesis efficiency far surpasses that of other telekinetic users."

In other words, Lin Wuming made up for the lack of quantity by quickly mobilizing his own Nen ability, and used the level 3 Nen ability to produce the effect of level 4.

To put it bluntly, it is a clever operation of robbing Peter to pay Paul, using the time difference to create the illusion of "having more telekinesis".

Kiyama Haruo pondered, "It's like revolving credit card payments. If you're quick enough, you can use the same amount of money to cover the limits of twelve cards..."

"Oh my, Kiyama-kun, your financial problems seem quite serious." Kihara Gensei looked over with concern. "Is Kiyama-kun really short of money lately?"

Kiyama Haruo nodded somewhat shamefully. "I was short on cash last month, so I used my credit card a bit..."

"Excuse me," Kihara Gensei said in surprise, "Kiyama-kun is now equivalent to doing two jobs, with two salaries, and both are high-paying jobs. I don't know why..."

"Because of the children I'm responsible for taking care of..." Kiyama Haruo explained in a low voice, "three of them had birthdays last month... As a teacher, I can't be partial, so..."

Kihara Gensei smiled with immense satisfaction. "I see. Kiyama-kun is truly a responsible and good teacher. I knew it was the right decision to assign you to look after those children."

"Thank you for the praise, teacher! These are what I should do!" said Haruo Kiyama happily.

"Keep it up," after sharing the fun, Kihara Gensei waved his hand, "Okay, Kiyama-kun, go get busy with your experiment."

"Yes, teacher!" Kimura Haruo turned around and left the laboratory in high spirits.

Talent and superpowers are two different power systems. In Academy City, there are naturally many people with superpowers, but geniuses with a certain "talent" are relatively rare - just like in other places in the world, "geniuses" are extremely rare cases.

Even Kihara Gensei had never met anyone who could combine "talent" and superpowers to achieve the effect of one plus one being greater than two.

After watching Kiyama Haruo leave, Kihara Gensei picked up the phone. Since this was a rare and precious specimen, more thorough experimental observation was necessary. "It's time to warn Dondong-kun to strengthen his defenses. We also need to convince him to install more cameras..."

……

"Why should I listen to you and hire some ANBU organization to strengthen our defenses?" On the other end of the line, Toshizo Toshizo sneered, "Just because that brat broke in last time? My 'Talent Lab' has already cut ties with illegal experimental institutions. Even if he comes again..."

"Indeed, it appears to be legal and compliant on the surface," Kihara Gensei said with a smile, "but whether it's actually an illegal experiment or not is something you know for yourself. Don't fool yourself."

Because there are indeed quite a number of grassroots researchers in the institute who truly like and care about children, the experimental subjects in the second laboratory of the "Talent Workshop" actually live quite well.

Unless Dongdong Junsan reveals his true intentions, it is unlikely that even if Lin Wuming comes to him again, he will find any evidence of his illegal experiments at this stage.

This is also the reason why the "Caigongfang" was able to safely pass the inspection by the guard forces.

"What nonsense are you talking about? My research institute wouldn't..."

"Haha." Kihara Gensei laughed. They were all thousand-year-old foxes. "Just tell the guards about this. I don't have time to argue with you. Similarly, that Lin Wuming classmate won't listen to your excuses, right?"

The reason why Kihara Gensei was so sure that there was something wrong with Toshizo was because he was also playing the same trick - Kiyama Haruo who had just come in was a researcher who really liked those experimental subjects, so he specially arranged for her to work in the school to take care of the experimental subjects who were still elementary school students.

Having said this, Kihara Gensei didn't waste any more words and simply hung up the phone. As for whether the other party would listen to his advice, that was not his concern.

After all, Kihara Gensei's purpose was just to watch the fun and collect some data, and he had no interest in the life or death of "Caigongfang".

"Hmm... is it true that Dondong-kun is unaware of the danger?" Kihara Gensei pondered. "Although he's arrogant, he's also a calculating man who takes his research very seriously. He shouldn't be so indifferent in the face of a threat."

"Oh my..." Kihara Gensei suddenly laughed, "It seems our Stupid-kun has truly forgotten that the Talent Lab he oversees includes more than just the Second Research Laboratory."

Although the First Laboratory was closed down due to "illegal detention" and other reasons, the "Internal Evolution" of the Third Laboratory is still there, and it successfully survived the crisis under the protection of Shokuhou Misaki.

To be precise, the one who posed a real direct threat to the "Talent's House" was Shokuhou Misaki; as for Lin Wuming, he was just a secondary external reason.

However, from the conversation just now, Kihara Gensei realized that the existence of "Shokuhou Misaki" had disappeared from Toshizo Dodo's cognition at some point.

"That's truly remarkable, Shokuhou-kun..." Kihara Gensei exclaimed. "Poor Dodo-kun, if you had ignored my advice, you would have been completely defeated."
