A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 193 ATM Burglary Case

After deciding to go home and do a thorough cleaning, Lin Wuming and Hufeng Toumi went to the supermarket together to buy items needed for the cleaning and ingredients for making strawberry cake.

By the time they walked out of the supermarket with their bags, it was already 1:30 in the afternoon.

It’s the beginning of the busiest time of the day.

Because they bought a lot of things, Lin Wuming's telepathic ability was fully utilized and he became the main force in transporting the goods.

As a result, a very eye-catching scene appeared on the street - a young boy and a girl were walking in front, with large and small shopping bags floating in the air behind them, following them closely.

"Wuming's ability of mind reading is really convenient and easy to use." Tiger Bee Toumi said with emotion.

"Yes," Lin Wuming also looked back at the shopping bag floating behind him, "Only at times like this can I particularly feel the benefits of my telepathic ability."

After the two of them walked along the sidewalk for a while, the attention focused on them decreased a lot. Basically, only passers-by who met them for the first time would stare at them for a while. As for the others, they had already looked away as if they were used to it and focused on their own things again.

After all, this is Academy City, and anything unusual can be explained by "superpowers". The residents living here have long developed extremely strong nerves and adaptability.

Even Lin Wuming, who had just traveled here not long ago, has adapted to the atmosphere of this city. He has now learned to ignore the gazes of those around him and can naturally display his superpowers - as if this is an ordinary and normal phenomenon.

The streets were calm and peaceful in the afternoon.

Today was a rare day off. There were no disciplinary committee activities, nor were there the various commissions that the "heroes" had to complete on a daily basis. There was no need to rush into battle with enemies from the illegal experimental facility. With a "living map" to guide the way, there was no need to worry about getting lost...

There really is no more relaxing and comfortable moment than this.

Lin Wuming squinted his eyes with great satisfaction, and even the scorching afternoon sun seemed so soothing.

At this moment, a slight noise coming from afar broke the peace.

Next to the sidewalk is a main road in the city, with a constant flow of traffic, but in an orderly manner.

But on this lane, something unexpected seemed to have happened...

"Wuming, did you hear anything?" Tiger Bee Toumi, who was equally sensitive to commotion, asked immediately.

Lin Wuming turned and looked towards the end of the road: "Police sirens."

Perhaps because the head of the household is a security guard, Lin Wuming is very sensitive to the sound of sirens.

"I heard the sound of vehicles colliding," said Tiger Bee Toumi, "and the roar of engines."

Combining the results of each other's observations, the possibility of a traffic accident can be basically ruled out.

"Street chase?" Lin Wuming guessed.

There were the roar of engines, the sounds of collisions, and the shrill wailing of sirens—it was obvious that the guards were chasing a fleeing prisoner in the street.

Facts soon verified their guess.

Less than twenty seconds later, a van with obvious collision marks on the front was seen fleeing.

Not far behind it, there was indeed a car with flashing police lights, chasing it closely.

"That police car looks familiar." Lin Wuming said.

"Of course, that's Teacher Huang Quanchuan's car!" said Hufeng Toumi.

Lin Wuming let out an "Ah" sound and reflexively brewed a block of telekinesis in front of him.

But when he was about to make a move, he stopped.

"At their current speed—is there any way to avoid a car crash and loss of life?" Lin Wuming's telekinesis had a maximum load capacity of around half a ton, and a speeding van clearly exceeded that limit. But it was more than enough to stop the car.

However, it is not difficult to stop the car. The difficult part is to stop the car without causing harm to the people in the car.

Because Lin Wuming still doesn’t know what happened. What if it’s a kidnapping case and there are innocent hostages in the car?

Tiger Bee Toumi seemed to have thought of this as well. A brand new ribbon hung from his hand, but he did not attack immediately.

The speed of the chasing car was very fast. The bread passed by the two people in the blink of an eye, leaving behind a long whistling sound.

Next up was Yomikawa Aiho's police car...

"Wuming, catch them..."

Yomigawa Aiho also noticed the two people on the side of the road and shouted without thinking much.

"Wuming!" Hufeng Toumi immediately grabbed Lin Wuming's arm.

"Let's go." Lin Wuming understood and used his telekinesis to roll up the two people and the shopping bags beside them, and flew to the roof of Huang Quanchuan Aiho's car.

With the support of telekinesis, the two ignored inertia and landed steadily on the roof of the speeding car.

"What are you doing, Mr. Huang Quanchuan!" Teacher Tetsujo Zuiri's voice came from inside the carriage, "Why did you involve those two kids?"

"Oops, I accidentally yelled..." Yomikawa Aiho responded, "But the car was going so fast, they probably didn't hear clearly, right? Don't worry about it, just catch up!"

Hearing the conversation in the car, Lin Wuming knocked on the roof: "Teacher Huang Quanchuan, Teacher Tiezhuang, we have arrived..."

Tiezhuang Zhuili, who was driving, was so surprised that the car briefly lost control and twisted several times on the road.

Yomikawa Aiho quickly reached out to help her steady the steering wheel: "Be careful, Tetsu! There are four people in the car now!"

Then she opened the skylight, stuck her head out, and looked at Lin Wuming and the others with a complicated expression.

"You guys... actually came..."

"Of course," Tiger Bee Toumi lowered his body, almost sticking to the roof of the car, "Didn't you ask us for help, teacher?"

"Okay, it's my fault..." Yomikawa Aiho said with a wry smile, "Anyway, you guys must sit tight, we're going to pull over..."

"Why did you stop?" Lin Wuming asked, "Aren't you trying to catch up with the car in front?"

"Of course, your safety is our priority now!"

Lin Wuming stood directly on the roof of the car and spread his hands: "We are safe, no need to worry."

Although it looks very thrilling, in fact only Lin Wuming himself knows that he has used his telekinesis to bind himself tightly to the car under his feet. This feeling of "binding" gives him a strong sense of security.

So Lin Wuming was not worried at all about what accidents might happen.

"Alright, alright, squat down!" Yomiuri Aiho scolded.

In fact, she also knew that Lin Wuming had superpowers to back him up, so he shouldn't be in danger, but as an ordinary person and guardian, she still couldn't help but worry.

Lin Wuming didn't insist and knelt down on one knee obediently: "Teacher, what happened? Is there a hostage in the car ahead?"

"Hostages? No, not really," Yomikawa Aiho shook her head. "Those three idiots up front broke into an ATM. There were only three idiots and an ATM in the car."
