A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 139: Hunting Tigers with Bows and Arrows
"So, doesn't that mean there are only two official members left in our 'school'?" Yuwang Wanhua said. "If my injuries don't heal quickly, the only real fighting force left is you, Boss..."

"So I'm planning to take a break and recruit a new person." Kakine Teito said with some resignation, "Tsk, this commission was a huge loss. I'd better take fewer private employment missions like this next time."

If it were an official commission, there wouldn't be such a hassle. Without having to worry about the consequences, Kakine Teiguchi could simply unleash his full firepower and raze the entire research institute. Therefore, even if Toshizou Tsuyoshi didn't give them a negative review this time, Kakine Teiguchi didn't plan to continue accepting these private commissions.

The price-performance ratio is really not high, and it is also very troublesome.

Upon hearing that Governor Kakine was interested in recruiting new people, Yuwang Wanhua and Yusai Umi immediately became interested.

"Why did the boss suddenly think of recruiting new people?" Yuwang Wanhua asked, "Could it be... to make up for the lack of combat power..."

Although he was reluctant to admit it, after what happened today, Yuwang Wanhua actually felt "lacking in combat power".

If someone could support myself or Yucai Haimei, the battle situation might not be so ugly, right?

"Boss, do you have a candidate in mind?" asked Yu Cai Haimei. According to the division of labor within the organization, the task of recruiting new members should be given to her.

Emperor Kakine was a proud and arrogant man, and when recruiting his subordinates, he also adhered to the elitist principle of preferring to have few rather than unqualified people.

Umi Jyusai was very curious about what kind of talent would be favored by Emperor Kakine.

"It's not confirmed yet, just an intention," Kakine Teito said. "I'm planning to recruit a sniper. His ability level isn't important, and even whether he has psychic abilities doesn't matter. What matters is that he has good sniping skills."

"Sniper? It doesn't matter if he doesn't have super powers?" The other two said in surprise.

Kakine Teidou nodded, but did not hide it: "This is the inspiration I got from Lin Wuming just now."

"Boss, are you talking about... the ricochet bullet that injured him in the end?" Yuwang Wanhua immediately remembered.

"That's right." Kakine Teidou nodded. "It's clear that Lin Wuming lacks defense against long-range sniping attacks—although it's only a relative weakness. But for someone who has reached a certain level of strength, this relative shortcoming may be the only weakness worth exploiting."

Sniping is a tactic characterized by "surprise attack" and "sneak attack". As long as it is used properly, the role that a skilled sniper can play is no less than that of a level 4 ability user.

Moreover, compared to level 4 people with great abilities, experienced snipers are actually easier to find.

The reason why Kakine Teidou wanted to add a sniper was not entirely to deal with Lin Wuming. The main purpose was to enrich the tactical options of the "school".

Because Kakine Teigu realized that in many battles, an inadvertent bullet could play a decisive role. It could even be more effective than the whole "school" fighting hard in close combat for most of the day.

"Well..." A strange voice suddenly came from behind the three of them, "I don't know what a sniper is, but if it's a hunter shooting prey from a distance in the dark... I can do it!"

The three people from the "school" suddenly turned around and saw a girl in a white apron standing behind them.

"You are..." Kakine Teito frowned. He recognized that this girl was one of the girls they had just rescued from the "Caigong Workshop".

However, Kakine Teiguro has never cared about these minor characters. Apart from Shokuhou Misaki, he is too lazy to remember anyone else, so he only has a slight impression of them at this time.

"It's you!" Yu Cai Haimei also recognized it, "You are..."

Then she was embarrassed to find that she didn't remember the girl's name.

In order to gather intelligence, Yucai Haimei once spent the whole day hanging out with the girls in the research institute. She thought she had already mastered the detailed information of everyone, but in the end... if she didn't have the impression of such a girl in her memory, she would definitely think that she had remembered it wrong.

"I can be your sniper!" the girl stepped forward and shouted.

She seemed to be mustering up her courage, but her introverted nature made her "shout" only slightly louder than normal speech.

"This girl..." Yuwang Wanhua couldn't help but look at his leader.

As expected, Kakine Teiguchi showed an interested expression on his face.

Yuwang Wanhua nodded silently - this girl was able to follow us here without being discovered, so she obviously had some kind of talent.

Regardless of being a "sniper", with this talent, he would definitely have no problem being an "assassin".

"Why don't you introduce yourself first?" Yu Cai Haimei said, "We don't know who you are or what your name is."

"I... I'm called Bow and Arrow Tiger Hunter," the girl said. "I... I've learned hunting techniques and I'm pretty good at shooting!"

As he said this, as if to prove what he said, the bow and arrow hunter looked around, ran to the flower bed nearby, picked up a stone and a larger piece of soil.

First throw out the clod of earth, then swing your hand and throw out the stone, smashing the clod of earth into pieces in mid-air!

"I can hunt small prey like hares and foxes with just stones!" Perhaps because he was talking about his own area of ​​expertise, the bow and arrow tiger hunter spoke a little louder.

"Why are you following us?" Emperor Kakine suddenly asked.

Logically speaking, Lin Wuming and Shokuhou Misaki were the ones who saved them, and the "school" has already revealed its identity as their "enemy."

No matter how you think about it, this girl shouldn't just run over to the "enemy", right?

Bow Hunter Tiger lowered his head, an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes: "Because... I also want to defeat Lin Wuming!"

"Huh?" Yucai Haimei asked in confusion, "Why is that?"

I originally wondered if this girl was a spy sent by Shokuhou Misaki, but what kind of spy would reveal themselves so openly right at the start?

"Because Lin Wuming took away the most important person to me!" Bow Hunter Tiger said excitedly.

In the escape operation just now, everyone contributed their own efforts. Her sister Yujian Iruka was particularly active. She teamed up with Mitsuari Ayu to repel the approaching black smoke monsters many times.

Only the bow and arrow tiger hunter himself has accomplished nothing, has been unable to do anything, and has no sense of existence.

It was like a simple burden, except that it was able to escape with the others and not fall behind.

The bow and arrow tiger hunter felt that even if he fell behind and failed to keep up, he would probably not be discovered by others.

——Just like now, I came here alone to look for Kakine Teito. I’m afraid my sisters and the others won’t notice that I’m “missing”, right?
