A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 183: Juanqi's Favorite First Mission

"An abandoned school warehouse?" Frenda was surprised to hear Kinuhata's favorite words. "Is your life situation so miserable in the end?"

"Why is it a boys' uniform?" Takitsubo Rikou asked the question that Maizono Shiori really wanted to ask.

Kinuhata looked down at her outfit: a white short-sleeved shirt, black cropped trousers, and the most ordinary sneakers. As for the decorative bow tie, she didn't wear it because it was too troublesome.

"It's easier to move around this way," Kinuhata said fondly, "and... I don't like skirts."

Because when they were in the institute, all the girls wore a dress-like burqa to make them easier to distinguish. Now that she had finally escaped from the institute, she naturally had no interest in dresses at all.

The three "props" did not delve into the reasons behind this. After all, they were from the Anbu, and the reason of "facilitating action" was enough.

Although Franda and Maito Shiori are both the type who mainly wear skirts, considering Kinuhata's favorite role positioning, she really needs to pay attention to the convenience of movement.

Among the three, Takitsubo Rikou is a sportswear fanatic, so she is a pants-wearer. She was very happy to finally have an ally.

"Well, let's put aside your clothing preferences and styles." Mai Ye Shenli waved his hand, "But forget about this cheap uniform. Your taste needs to improve. Go to the store downstairs and change clothes later."

While making his own arrangements, Mai Ye Shen Li suddenly looked at the other party: "What, do you have any objections?"

"No," Kinuhata shook her head, "I have no objection. I will follow your instructions."

Mai Ye Shenli nodded, and for some reason, Franda next to him smiled.

Kinuhata's concept of money remained naive, largely unchanged from before she entered the research institute a few years ago. But even instinctively, she realized she felt somewhat out of place in this room and among the other three people there. To fit in, she probably needed to upgrade her clothing, right?

"Come, sit down and have something to drink." Mai Ye Shenli invited her to sit down and poured her a cup of tea.

Kinuhata Zuiai walked over very obediently, moved a chair for herself and sat next to Maizono Shiori, then picked up the teacup.

Mai Ye Shenli nodded, satisfied with this obedient newcomer.

"Very good, Kinuhata's favorite, now that you have joined our 'props'..."

"Have you decided to join?" Franda complained.

Then he cried out "Aiya" and was hit by Mai Ye Shenli's knife.

"...Then," Mai Ye Shenli's eyes never left Kinuhata's beloved face, "consider this your first mission—tell me what exactly happened at Black Moon Technology on that day."

"Huh?" This time it was finally Kinuhata's favorite who was surprised. "Why...?"

I had originally thought that I would encounter some kind of difficulty or a strict assessment, but I didn't expect that the other party would actually ask about this matter.

And looking at Mai Ye Chenli's expression, it didn't seem like he was just asking casually.

"I just want to understand the situation." Mai Ye Shenli shrugged, "Don't be nervous, just tell us what happened at that time."

Seeing that Kinuhata's favorite was still confused, Takitsubo Rikou stepped in to explain, "Actually, we received that mission the day before you escaped from Black Moon Technology."

"That mission?" "It was to destroy Black Moon Technology and sabotage the 'Dark May Plan,'" Frenda said. "In the end, before we could even make a plan, the target of the mission suddenly collapsed on their own..."

"Ah?" Hearing this, Juanqi Zuiai was also shocked, "So... so that's how it is..."

"That was a rare mission with a high reward," Frenda continued. "In the end, because we couldn't complete it, we didn't get the corresponding reward. Mugino has been brooding over it ever since... Oh no!"

"You're the one who's holding a grudge against me." Mai Ye Shenli put away his knife and said to Kinuhata Zui Ai, "I'm just curious. I want to know what happened that day."

"Okay." Knowing the reason, Kinuhata Zuiai breathed a sigh of relief. "But I have to make one thing clear. I was only following Brother Xiaolin's orders and leading everyone to escape. I have no idea what happened in the underground training ground where the actual battle took place."

Because of the intelligence blockade by the security forces, and since that day, Juanqi's favorite had no chance to see Lin Wuming again. So she had no idea what happened deep underground that day.

Her advance statement made Mai Ye Shenli frown, a little dissatisfied, but considering that the girl in front of him was just an ordinary person before, he couldn't ask for too much.

"Even that's fine. Just tell me everything you know."

Kinuhata's favorite nodded and began to tell the story.

However, as she had just stated, since she was only involved in leading the other experimental subjects to escape from the institute, the content she could tell was very limited.

Perhaps from the perspective of the person involved, it was a thrilling and unforgettable experience, but for the three people in the Anbu, it was indeed a bit dull.

Because the main combat forces of Black Moon Technology were concentrated in the underground training ground at that time, the children did not encounter any substantial obstacles when escaping.

Even though Kinuhata loved herself the most, when she looks back on it now, she doesn't think there was anything particularly noteworthy about it.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Mai Ye Shenli also showed a disappointed expression.

"Too weak! That Black Moon technology is simply too weak!" Mai Ye Shenli sighed, feeling rather distressed. "It was breached so easily, and there were only two people who actually took action—the hero and his partner..."

"It's Lin Wuming and Hufeng Toumi." Knowing that Maizono Shiori didn't remember their names, Takitsubo Rikou whispered, "A level 3 telekinetic user and a level 4 'Absolute Penetration' user. According to recent intelligence, their combat power is very strong!"

"Even so," Mai Ye Shenli snorted, "They are still inferior to us in every aspect. If we had launched an attack immediately on the day we received the mission, we could have completed it first, right?"

Because he learned from the intelligence that the research object of the "Dark May" plan was Accelerator's "Vector Operation", out of caution and respect for another level 5, Maito Shiori chose to be safe and collect intelligence first before taking action.

Anyway, the client has given us plenty of time, so there is no need to rush.

As a result, we were so confident that we could complete the mission. However, when we came to our senses the next day, we found that the research institute that was the target of the mission had been destroyed!

And it was done quite thoroughly - all the people involved in the plan were wiped out, and the data room was also burned down.

As for the surviving staff of Black Moon Technology, they were just there to add to the facade and were completely unaware of the plan.

Mai Ye Shenli studied it over and over for a long time, but still couldn't find any place to finish off the enemy - the mission target had been completely resolved, and there was no room for them to intervene.

Therefore, they were completely deprived of the generous reward.
