A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 216: Solving the Case with Words
After carefully reviewing all the information he had obtained so far in his mind, Lin Wuming became more and more convinced that Shibata Saburo was the real culprit of the theft.

As for the reason why he took the initiative to call the police, it was probably just a means to help himself clear the suspicion.

Lin Wuming still remembered that when the chairman described the case, he mentioned that this morning, in the office where the safe was stolen, there was a period of time when Shibata Saburo was alone.

Although it only took two minutes, it seemed that nothing could be done, but if it was just to open the safe, two minutes was more than enough time.

After that, no one entered the office to check, so no one noticed that the safe had been opened - until that liquid metal robot went in...

If this speculation is true, then Saburo Shibata is at least an accomplice in this case.

When faced with the three disciplinary committee members who suddenly approached him, Shibata Saburo showed great impatience, fully displaying the aura of an adult and a "superior" and sternly scolding them, "Don't meddle in other people's business."

If Lin Wuming hadn't stopped him, Hu Feng Toumi would have drawn his sword.

Gufa Meiwei had no choice but to step forward and try to talk to him.

Of course, the results weren't great.

Although she usually presents herself as a gentle senior schoolmate, Gufa Meiwei is actually a person with a soft exterior and a strong heart.

You know, before becoming a discipline committee member, she was a racer in "Big Spider".

Just when Gufa Meiwei was about to lose his patience and clench his fists to punch out, Lin Wuming finally showed up.

Because Lin Wuming and Hufeng Toumi both disliked and were not good at negotiating with others, all the work of conducting talks was given to Gufa Meiwei.

Originally, Lin Wuming had no intention of showing up. He just wanted to wait and see what happened. At most, everything would be resolved after the Discipline Committee's psychological support arrived.

It’s just that Saburo Shibata was too arrogant, and his curses were so harsh that it was unbearable.

If there wasn't a security teacher watching nearby, Lin Wuming would definitely do something to make him suffer.

I don't know if it's because Saburo Shibata has been in a high position for too long and is used to this arrogant and domineering attitude, or if he is becoming more and more excited because he feels guilty.

But no matter what, Lin Wuming didn't intend to continue listening to his fancy insults.

"Shibata Saburo!" Lin Wuming shouted, interrupting the other side's endless chatter.

With this sound, Lin Wuming used his telepathic ability to create a 360-degree surround sound around Saburo Shibata.

To Saburo Shibata, it was like a thunderclap exploding in his ears!

The whole person let out a "Huh" sound and jumped up in fright, his face pale.

"Making a false report to the police is also a crime - you should know this, right?" Lin Wuming said sternly.

"Huh...eh?" Shibata Saburo perked up instantly and shook his head hastily. "You, what are you talking about? What about making a false police report? Don't spit on me. I'll sue you for defamation!"

"Why are you panicking?" Gufa Meiwei, who had been patient for a long time, immediately added, "We didn't say you were making a false police report, did we? Why are you so eager to identify yourself?"

"You!" Shibata Saburo took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "You are trying to be clever and get a confession. This is against the rules!"

Lin Wuming had no intention of arguing with him and said bluntly, "Shibata Saburo, you stole the 100 million yen from the safe yourself, didn't you?"

Lin Wuming stared at the other person's eyes, trying to see something. Unfortunately, he had never studied psychology, so he couldn't see anything - but it didn't matter, as long as the other person thought he had seen the flaw.

Lin Wuming shook his head and continued, "No, I don't think there was any money in the safe from the beginning. You actually took the money away a long time ago. You staged such a farce today just to settle the score."

Because the suitcase found by the Discipline Committee member was empty, Lin Wuming boldly speculated that maybe the thief took away an empty suitcase from the very beginning?

Then Lin Wuming naturally thought of using thieves to settle debts.

Of course, all of the above are just Lin Wuming’s own speculations based on the currently known information. He actually doesn’t know the truth.

After all, Lin Wuming is neither a security guard nor a detective. At most, he is just an ordinary mystery fan.

Although he could make some basic inferences based on the known clues, trying to solve the case and find the criminal through reasoning...this kind of thing was a bit too difficult for Lin Wuming.

In reality, Lin Wuming didn't want to share his immature reasoning—he was just doing it for his own amusement. The correct way to use it was to wait until the case was finally solved and the correct answer was obtained, then compare his own reasoning with it to see if he was right...

That’s right, Lin Wuming regarded this case as a real-life mystery work.

However, Saburo Shibata's foul language really makes people's blood pressure rise.

Unable to bear it any longer, Lin Wuming didn't bother to care about anything else and just told his reasoning directly - as long as he could make this guy Saburo Shibata shut up and feel troubled.

Lin Wuming's accusation took effect immediately.

After hearing this, Saburo Shibata was stunned for a few seconds, then began to yell hysterically, looking like a madman.

The security teacher nearby had noticed the situation here a long time ago, and hurried over when he saw this scene.

After listening to Lin Wuming's reasoning, the security teachers also felt that it made sense.

Although there was still a lack of sufficient evidence, it was at least an idea. And more importantly, they had been annoyed with Saburo Shibata for a long time.

"Damn it, damn it! How could you do this? Accuse an innocent person without any evidence?" Shibata Saburo yelled. "I'm the one who reported the case. How can you doubt me?"

"Evidence is easy to come by." Although he couldn't see anything, Lin Wuming still felt that this guy was very suspicious. "I know 'Psychological Mastery'—the one who was recently promoted to Level 5. If I let her take a look, she'll naturally know if you're lying."

In fact, Lin Wuming was lying. He had no intention of calling Shokuhou Misaki from the beginning to the end. He just wanted to use the name of "psychological control" to intimidate Shibata Saburo.

Lin Wuming's strategy was indeed successful.

As a "big shot", Shibata Saburo of course knew the relevant information as soon as Shokuhou Misaki was promoted to level 5, and he also knew that Shokuhou Misaki was also the "interrogation consultant" of the guard force.

What he was most worried about happened - logically, the guards would not treat the reporter the same way they interrogated prisoners, so he dared to take a risk.

But who knows what happened, he was suddenly entangled by a few little devils. They even unreasonably suspected that he was the criminal, and they were able to use their personal connections to find that "psychological master"...

How is this still playing?
Saburo Shibata was anxious and angry, and in a panic, he finally broke down.

"This is wrong! This goes against the process and regulations!" Shibata Saburo yelled hysterically. "I'm the one who reported the case. I ordered you to investigate. I'm the employer! You workers can't question me as your employer!"
