A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 22 Lin Wuming's First Outing
After sending Huang Quanchuan Aihui back to the bedroom, Lin Wuming slowly cleaned up the kitchen and living room. After washing up, he leisurely returned to his bedroom. He even had the energy to browse the mobile phone he had just received today.

Because he stayed up too late this morning, Lin Wuming also got up a little later than usual.

"Wuming...it's only half past six." Huang Quanchuan Aihui, who had gotten up to go to the bathroom, rubbed her eyes to check the time. Then she looked at Lin Wuming, who was busy in the kitchen, and exclaimed sincerely, "Don't you need to sleep?"

"I'm used to waking up at this time." Lin Wuming said with a smile, "Good morning, Mr. Huang Quanchuan. What would you like for breakfast?"

"Call me sister~" Yomikawa Aiho, who was in a state of depression after waking up early, yawned and said drowsily, "Also... I don't want to eat breakfast. I'll sleep a little longer and have lunch when I wake up..."

"Okay, then I'll just prepare my own portion." Lin Wuming nodded, then suddenly thought of something, "Oh, the ingredients in the refrigerator are running out."

Because the purchasing work for the family is done by Aiho Yoquangawa, but she has been very busy with work these two days and has no time to go to the market to buy vegetables, so the stock in the refrigerator is almost empty.

"Eh~~" The sleepy-eyed woman was making a difficult choice between sleepiness and delicious food.

It’s a pity that at this moment, sleepiness undoubtedly prevails.

"Then... let's just eat instant noodles... I remember there's still a lot of them in the cupboard..."

"Although I don't hate instant noodles," Lin Wuming said helplessly, "but what I mean is that I'm going to go out myself later. If you need anything, I'll buy it for you as well."

"Is that so..." As she felt increasingly sleepy, Yomikawa Aiho stood there and thought for a while, "No... Wuming, just be careful..."

After saying that, she staggered back to the bedroom and fell asleep.

"Anyway, I've reported it to the guardian." Lin Wuming nodded. "She shouldn't forget it after she wakes up, right?"

After several days of careful preparation, Lin Wuming finally decided to step out of the apartment building and enter Academy City alone.

The act of "reporting" to Yomikawa Aiho is not only a basic courtesy to greet the guardian, but also so that he can ask her for help if he gets lost.

After having breakfast and washing the dishes, Lin Wuming changed into going-out clothes, checked his wallet, cell phone, student ID and other items, and re-planned his route to the nearby supermarket.

After making full preparations, I finally left home with full confidence.

After eight days, Lin Wuming walked out of the apartment building for the first time. It was also the first time since he traveled through time that he came to the new world of "Academy City" alone.

Looking up at the sky, Lin Wuming was filled with emotion.

"New world, here I come..." After encouraging himself, Lin Wuming drove his wheelchair forward.

At the same time, in a black car parked on the side of the road, the person in the passenger seat suddenly woke up his partner next to him.

"Hey, wake up! The target has appeared!"

"Hmm...eh? He finally showed up?" The man in the driver's seat perked up immediately. "Yes, he's the target! Good heavens, I thought he'd stay inside forever!"

The two who had been waiting nearby for eight days were deeply moved. They were also professionals, but facing the guard unit's lair, even as members of the Anbu, they did not dare to rush in easily and could only wait outside.

Moreover, the surveillance positions and vehicles must be changed frequently, otherwise the flaws will be easily discovered by the guards in the entire building.

It is indeed a very hard and difficult job.

Now, the hard work has finally paid off and I have reaped some rewards!
"The target is still in a wheelchair, so it's normal that he doesn't go out." said the partner.

"We can't be careless. The target is a Level 3 user with powerful abilities. Even with his crippled limbs, he still possesses considerable combat power. Don't be fooled by his appearance," the pilot said. "We'll stay put and have the minions continue tracking. Also, notify the leader and prepare to capture the prey!"

"Understood." The partner made an OK gesture and took out his cell phone to contact someone.

The black car didn't make any movement, as if it was just an ordinary vehicle parked on the side of the road to rest.

So when Lin Wuming passed by it, he didn't notice anything wrong.

However, at the entrance of an alley a little further away, the figures of several bad boys could be vaguely seen.

Those bad boys also did not arouse Lin Wuming's vigilance. He just thought that those hooligans were very bold to dare to move around in the place where the security teachers gathered.

Not long after, the leader of the Anbu "Hunter" received news from his subordinates.

"The target has appeared, act immediately and prepare to capture!" The leader picked up a large travel bag, got out of the waiting van, and headed straight for the commanding heights that had been selected long ago.

Following his command, the dozen or so members of the "Hunter" team sprang into action, weaving an invisible yet remarkably tenacious net around their target, Lin Wuming.

As the name suggests, the Anbu "Hunters" are an underworld organization whose primary business is to "hunt humans." Experimental subjects like Lin Wuming who accidentally escape from experimental facilities are their main targets. They can even be hired to capture more "guinea pigs" when certain illegal experimental projects are short of experimental subjects.

Even among the Anbu organizations in Academy City, they were considered the least prestigious. This was simply because their missions were too despicable.

Academy City's Anbu organizations were essentially unrecognized, semi-official organizations, primarily responsible for maintaining the city's basic operations. While other Anbu organizations occasionally received missions like "capturing escaped experimental subjects," these were direct orders from higher-ups, leaving the Anbu, as tools, no room for refusal.

But the "hunters" are different. They take this as their main job and even publish advertisements to the outside world. They specialize in capturing experimental subjects - this is why the "Dark May" project team chose to hire them.

Lin Wuming was completely unaware of the dangers around him. There were not many "hunters", and they were also experienced hunters who were very good at hiding themselves in urban environments. Even members of other dark organizations might not be able to detect their presence, let alone Lin Wuming, an ordinary person.

Following the planned route, Lin Wuming successfully arrived at the largest supermarket nearby. According to the plan, he could buy everything on the list here without having to go to a second store.

Moreover, Aiho Yomikawa also has shopping cards and membership cards for this supermarket, which are very cost-effective to use.

Even when shopping in a supermarket, Lin Wuming had prepared a strategy in advance, with a clear purpose, going straight to the point and making quick decisions.

Including the time wasted due to unfamiliarity with the environment, Lin Wuming completed the purchasing task in less than an hour, then checked out and went home.
