A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 149: Directionally Idiot

"If..." Hearing that Lin Wuming and Hufeng Toumi were going to do morning exercises together, Gongjian Rulu was a little excited and muttered to himself, "If persisting in exercising can really make me stronger..."

During today's escape, Yujian Iruka's activeness was remarkable. Together with Mitsuari Ayu, she formed a second line of defense against the black smoke monsters, making a huge contribution to everyone's escape. Otherwise, Hokaze Junko alone probably wouldn't be able to take care of them all.

"Proper exercise is good for your health," said Yuanfeng Ye Li, their guardian. "But after what you just went through... there's no need to rush. You can rest for a while."

The only two adults present spoke in a teacher-like manner.

But to be honest, Yuanfeng Ye Li is the most uneasy person here.

Lin Wuming, Hufeng Toumi, Shokuhou Misaki and other young boys and girls are either the insiders and the instigators of this escape incident, or the type who are indifferent to these things and don't take them to heart.

Only Yuanfeng Ye Li experienced the ups and downs of life in these few short hours - in every sense - and it felt even more exciting than a roller coaster.

The research institute where he had worked diligently for over six months was actually an illegal testing facility? He was the only staff member in the entire institute who was kept in the dark? The experiment had actually caused such a horrific accident? And in the end, he and his children had escaped unharmed?

In addition to the psychological and spiritual shock, she also felt a fear of escaping death. She had witnessed the situation in the research institute with her own eyes. Facing those former colleagues who had turned into black smoke monsters, they could really die if they were not careful!

Even if he turned into a black smoke monster, there was a possibility that he would be completely destroyed by the "unreal matter"; not to mention, those researchers who had once turned into black smoke monsters were still in a coma, and it was unknown whether they could wake up.

It can be said that it is a miracle that I can survive and sit here and eat without any harm!
Only now, after sitting at the dining table and filling his stomach, did the nerves that had been tense all day finally relax. All kinds of complicated emotions surged into Yuanfeng Ye Li's mind like a fountain.

—I seem to have lost my job, but luckily I didn't end up in jail. The experimental accident I encountered today was truly horrific, but at least I managed to save my life, and the children are all okay. I don't know what to do next, and the future is uncertain, but right now I have to take care of the children...

After finally suppressing his complicated thoughts, Yuanfeng Ye Li perked up and joined the conversation.

Shokuhou Misaki looked at the teacher with complicated eyes, wondering whether she should use "mental control" to help her feel more relaxed.

Until he spoke, Yuanfeng Ye Li's presence was almost as strong as hunting a tiger with a bow and arrow.

But after she started talking, Lin Wuming, who was once an adult, immediately noticed her.

Although he didn't have the ability to read minds, Lin Wuming could still understand her complex emotions - just the sudden loss of her job and the strict investigation by the security forces were enough to put a huge amount of pressure on her!
Yuanfeng Ye Li is worthy of being an outstanding graduate from a prestigious university. He adjusted his mood without waiting for Shokuhou Misaki and Lin Wuming to say anything.

"Thank you so much for today!" Yuanfeng Ye Li suddenly stood up and bowed to Lin Wuming and Hufeng Toumi. "Lin Wuming, Hufeng Toumi! Thank you for your help and for this dinner."

Yuanfeng Ye Li smiled bitterly and said, "Honestly, if it weren't for you, I can't imagine what would have happened today... I would probably be at a loss, or even die in an accident at the research institute."

——He did die in the original story.

Lin Wuming and Shokuhou Misaki thought together.

"Don't worry, Mr. Yuanfeng Ye Li," Lin Wuming responded. "Teacher, you are also a victim, so please don't worry. It's over. Please have a good rest today. Your students still need your care."

"That's true." Smiling, Yuanfeng Ye Li stood up and said, "I, an adult, won't stay here to disturb you. Is this a party? Just have fun. I'm going upstairs to rest."

Lin Wuming quickly put down the chopsticks in his hand: "I'll take you upstairs." The girls decided to hold a party tonight, and Yuanfeng Ye Li was not the only one who felt out of place.

"Wuming," Tiger Bee Toumi called out to him, "Do you... know the way?"

"..." Lin Wuming was speechless for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, he seemed to have no confidence to refute. "Don't worry, the layout of each floor of the apartment is the same. No matter what, you won't get lost."

"In that case..." Tiger Bee Toumi glanced at the guests in the room, "After you send the teacher back, could you please go downstairs and buy some drinks? It seems that the supplies at home are insufficient."

"No problem." Lin Wuming made an OK gesture.

In the elevator, Yuanfeng Ye Li suddenly said, "Mumichi, you and Hufeng really have a good understanding."

"Yes," Lin Wuming nodded, "She knew I wasn't good at dealing with that kind of situation, so she made an excuse for me to stay outside for a while longer to get some fresh air."

"Huh? Is that so?" Yuanfeng Ye Li asked in surprise.

The so-called "tacit understanding" she mentioned just now was actually just a clear division of labor between the two people, one to send her home, and the other to stay at home to take care of other guests.

As the host, this response is quite appropriate.

It makes people feel like these two people are a family who have lived together under the same roof for a long time.

Yuanfeng Ye Li envied the feeling of having such a family.

“I really hope those kids can…”

……

In the end, Lin Wuming was still lost.

Because he was standing and walking this time, his perspective was slightly different from when he was sitting in a wheelchair, so the same reference object appeared different to him.

Lin Wuming spent a few minutes exploring the entire floor and finally found the location of the elevator.

I went back to the first floor and bought ten cans of drinks of different flavors from the vending machine in the lobby, then returned the same way.

Since he had explored the entire floor on the thirteenth floor and was familiar with the terrain, Lin Wuming did not get lost this time and returned to Huangquanchuan Aihui's home very smoothly.

"Wuming, you are lost again, right?" Just from the time, Hufeng Toumi guessed the truth.

Shokuhou Misaki, standing by, looked over with an incredulous look in her eyes: "I didn't expect it to be true..."

She had also heard the rumor that Lin Wuming was a person with poor direction, but Shokuhou Misaki always felt that it was just an unfounded rumor.

But now it seems that Lin Wuming does have the incredible weakness of being "directionally challenged"!
