Chapter 166 Hardcore Training for Discipline Committee Members

"Well, that's pretty much what a disciplinary committee member does." Gufa Meiwei rolled her eyes. Because there were so many things to deal with, even though Lin Wuming was the primary contributor, she was feeling a bit tired from being in charge of communicating with those seeking help.

As for the tiger bee, it followed Lin Wuming like a shadow and had nothing to do along the way.

After all, she is even worse at communicating with others than Lin Wuming, and she rarely encounters incidents that require her intervention during her daily patrols.

Then, at Gufa Meiwei's suggestion, the three decided to take off their armbands and find a place to rest.

"A senior member of the Discipline Committee will be here to guide us this afternoon." Sitting in a tea restaurant, the three of them started lunch a little early. Gufa Meiwei took the opportunity to explain the upcoming arrangements. "It probably won't be another patrol mission. We can probably finally get some rest."

"The afternoon schedule is not work, but training. You can stay in the air-conditioned room and listen to the lectures comfortably like you are now." A new voice suddenly came from beside me.

A high school girl sat down next to Gufa Meiwei with a familiar air. After she sat down, she naturally took off her armband—she was also a member of the Discipline Committee.

"Senior Naito!" Gufa Meiwei hurriedly greeted her and introduced her to Lin Wuming and Hufeng Toumi, "This is Senior Naito, a senior from the Discipline Committee Training Department, and the instructor who trained us this afternoon."

Lin Wuming quickly greeted him.

"Well, don't worry about it." Naito-senpai waved her hand. "I'm a student too. It's just that our Discipline Committee emphasizes student self-management, so some basic training courses are taught by us seniors."

"Can I ask what the content of today's class is?" Lin Wuming asked.

"How to identify and deal with explosive devices," said Senior Naito.

"Ah? What?" Lin Wuming doubted his ears.

"That's right, don't be surprised." Naito-senpai seemed to have anticipated the other party's reaction. "It's the explosive device you imagined... In layman's terms, it's a bomb of some kind."

Lin Wuming sighed: "Is it so hardcore?"

"It's not that bad," Naito-senpai shrugged. "After all, compared to firearms, explosives are much easier to obtain—you can make them yourself with just a little high school chemistry knowledge. And not only do they endanger public safety, they also pose the greatest threat to us, the Discipline Committee members themselves."

That's right, because of the enormous power of the explosive device and the secrecy of its deployment, it has become the most threatening type of weapon to the Discipline Committee members.

Glancing at the increasingly bustling shop, Naito-senpai lowered her voice and explained, "Legitimate weapons like other firearms and controlled knives are managed by the security forces. Even if a case arises, it's handled by the security officers, and we, the Discipline Committee, are generally not involved."

But explosive devices are another matter.

After all, the vast majority of Academy City's schools are located there, and their laboratories are stockpiled with raw materials that can be used to create explosives. While the schools' intentions are definitely not to create bombs, the ultimate outcome of these raw materials depends entirely on how they are used, making them inherently difficult to control.

Moreover, it is not necessarily done intentionally. More often, dangerous "explosive devices" are created unintentionally due to experimental errors or improper storage.

Moreover, the atmosphere of scientific research and exploration is very strong in Academy City. Even the laboratory classes of elementary school students encourage various exploratory experiments. No one can predict what will be born in the reagent bottle or culture dish at that time.

The "explosive devices" that the discipline committee members really need to deal with are more of these things.

After all, the Judgment Committee's jurisdiction usually covers their respective schools. If an incident occurs, the Judgment Committee will arrive on the scene much faster than the security forces. "Don't underestimate the lab," Naito emphasized. "This is Academy City. Even kindergarten experiments are more professional than most middle school labs outside. Obtaining basic experimental materials is also easy."

In other words, as long as you have the relevant knowledge and enough courage, it is not a problem to use laboratory equipment to make explosives by hand.

"Remember," Naito-senpai added, "regularly inspecting the school laboratories within our jurisdiction is also one of the important responsibilities of our Discipline Committee members."

The fastest way to learn how to identify and dispose of explosive devices is to learn how to make them yourself.

Among the agreements that must be signed when joining the Discipline Committee, there is one that requires Discipline Committee members not to abuse the professional knowledge learned in training to make explosives themselves.

Lin Wuming was also amazed by these hard-core courses and supporting systems.

It's a blessing that this city, which is mainly composed of underage students, has been able to run smoothly until now...

But he changed his mind and felt relieved. Compared to using his brain and hands to painstakingly create explosive devices, the psychics of Academy City themselves were the most unstable "bombs."

The destructive power of superpowers above level 3 has long exceeded that of ordinary bombs.

In comparison, these few explosive devices really pose a threat at the level of "students have to deal with it on their own."

"Don't be too nervous," Naito-senpai added, "Most of the time, the explosive devices we encounter are just enough to scare people. They're generally not life-threatening."

“…” Lin Wuming looked over speechlessly.

After all, the Discipline Committee is just a student volunteer activity. Is it really okay for them to easily say things like "there is no danger to life" or "generally not"?
Perhaps out of carelessness or a lack of awareness of the deadly threat, the two senior members of the Discipline Committee didn't seem to think there was anything wrong.

Tiger Bee Toumi kept a frown on his face the whole time, looking like he was enduring something.

Recalling the girl's past battlefield experience, Lin Wuming said to her, "If you can't do it, just skip the training."

"No!" Tiger Bee Toumi immediately refused. She clenched her fists. "How to deal with explosive devices... I'm the 'professional'!"

Lin Wuming patted the girl's arm: "Don't worry, I will protect you."

Seeing this, Naito-senpai quickly said, "There's really no need to be so nervous. It's just a training course. There's no danger."

There was indeed no danger during the afternoon training session.

Lin Wuming and Hu Feng Toumi, one has never formally attended school, and the other has just entered elementary school for less than a year. Even if they are both high-level ability users, it is impossible to let them directly prepare explosives.

Therefore, today's training mainly focuses on case introductions and explanations of basic chemical knowledge.
