A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 231 Misaka Mikoto Hasn't Mastered Her Special Skills Yet

After stating his purpose, Lin Wuming introduced both sides. After all, it was the first time for Misaka Mikoto and Kouho Miwei to meet Kinuhata Zeai.

"Huh? You are the super level 5 electric shock user?" Kinuhata's favorite and most concerned person is of course Misaka Mikoto. She also noticed that Misaka Mikoto was the only one who was not wearing an armband.

"Huh? Um... I am indeed a psychic, a level 5 electric shock user." Misaka Mikoto nodded, "Please take care of me."

"Please take care of me!" Kinuhata Zuiai compared this girl with Maizono Shiori in her mind while shaking hands with her.

"Well, I'll take care of you from now on." Gufa Meiwei also greeted her in a friendly manner.

Then he introduced the case to Kinuhata's favorite.

"In other words..." Juanqi Zuiai looked at Lin Wuming subconsciously, "You want to know if there are other people with super powers who can manipulate gas?"

——The thing is, I don’t know anything about this kind of thing, Kobayashi-nii!
Kinuhata's favorite social circle is very narrow. Apart from his former companions in the "Dark May" plan, the only people he knows are the three colleagues in "Props".

——Now it seems understandable that Kobayashi-san first thought of looking for Kuroyoru Umidori. At least, she must be better at dealing with others than me!

Noticing her difficulty, Gufa Meiwei quickly said, "Don't worry about it. We just want to get some advice. We don't necessarily want to find the person with the corresponding superpowers."

"Use high-pressure gas to create an explosion," Misaka Mikoto handed the broken can to Kinuhata Kai. "Can you do something like that?"

Juanqi Ai raised her hand, and everyone could vaguely see that the air above her palm seemed to be distorted.

"I can only do this much," Kinuhata said fondly. "Nitrogen armor—it's incredibly reliable in terms of strength, but the air pressure... probably isn't that strong."

Tiger Bee Toumi poked it curiously with her finger, and sure enough, she encountered an obstruction in a ball of air above her palm.

It's like poking a tough cowhide bag. It takes a lot of effort and you can only penetrate half the depth.

"Very powerful armor defense!" Tiger Bee Toumi retracted his fingers and nodded in praise.

Kinuhata's favorite expression changed: "That's amazing... No, it's super amazing!"

Although I have long known that the "hero partner" beside Brother Xiaolin is also a powerful superpower user, I didn't expect him to be so powerful!
Apart from Maito Shiori's completely unreasonable "Atomic Disintegration", Kinuhata's favorite has never encountered an ability that can pierce his "Nitrogen Armor" so easily.

And it seems that the tiger bee hasn't used up all its strength yet!
Miwei Kouho and Misaka Mikoto were still a little confused and thought that the two of them were just politely complimenting each other.

Lin Wuming knew that Tiger Bee Toumi had just activated her "Absolute Penetration." Although it was just a finger, under the supernatural power, it was the sharpest sword in the world.

And Kinuhata's favorite "Nitrogen Armor" did effectively block her attacks, no wonder it received praise from Tiger Bee Toumi.

Of course, these are things that have nothing to do with the case, and neither Hufeng Toumi nor Kinuhata Zuiai intend to discuss this further.

"In short, although my ability can affect air pressure, it can only be said to be a passive phenomenon." Juanqi Zuiai said, "The effect of my ability does not rely on ultra-high pressure."

In essence, Kinuhata's favorite "Nitrogen Armor" and Kuroyoru Umidori's "Nitrogen Blast Gun" do not operate with nitrogen, but with "nitrogen molecules."

In principle, they manipulate and adjust the arrangement of nitrogen molecules, giving them a fixed shape, ultimately forming "armor" or "spears." In other words, relying on their abilities, they can directly alter the physical properties of nitrogen without increasing its pressure.

This is a completely different path from the application of "Explosion Demon" that uses ultra-high pressure gas to create explosions.

Therefore, the "consultant" found this time was completely wrong.

"I'm so sorry! I wasn't able to be of any use!" Kinuhata's favorite said with great guilt.

"It doesn't matter. At least we can rule out one possibility, right?" Lin Wuming himself didn't seem to care much.

"As expected, we still have to start the investigation through this can in the end?" Misaka Mikoto manipulated the electromagnetic force to move the can that once contained high-pressure gas to her side.

Just now, while waiting for Kinuhata's favorite, they discussed sending the remains of the jar to the laboratory to see if they could extract the fingerprints of the "Explosion Demon".

In order to avoid destroying the evidence, the remains of the jar were moved through the air by Misaka Mikoto using electromagnetic force to ensure that no one else came into contact with it.

"In the end, the most primitive method is the most effective." Kinuhata Zuiai also unconsciously imitated his colleague's habit of speaking.

Then, the group of five prepared to return to the commercial street from the park rest area.

In order to express his gratitude to Juanqi's beloved for her assistance, Lin Wuming suggested treating her to a drink.

"For drinks, there's a vending machine right here." Misaka Mikoto pointed to the red machine next to her.

"..." Lin Wuming was in a very subtle mood, and his eyes kept moving back and forth between Misaka Mikoto and the red vending machine.

"?" Misaka Mikoto was confused and couldn't help but look down to see if there was anything strange on her body. "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

"No." Lin Wuming quickly shook his head. At this time, Misaka Mikoto should not have learned the "Tokiwadai Secret Technique" yet.

Lin Wuming immediately made an excuse: "I was just worried that the machine would malfunction and swallow the money without dropping the drink."

"No way?" Misaka Mikoto patted the vending machine. "The machines in Academy City are very reliable. Such a low-level malfunction shouldn't happen."

"After all, there was an explosion here just now. Although it didn't actually explode," Lin Wuming pointed to the beverage cans scattered on the ground, "Maybe this machine was also affected?"

But in fact, when Lin Wuming saw the combination of Misaka Mikoto and the red vending machine, he subconsciously thought that the vending machine was broken, so he didn't want to buy drinks here.

"Actually, it's because you don't have any money, Wuming," Tiger Bee Toumi pointed out, "so you can only buy things at stores that accept credit cards."

What Hufeng Toumi said was right. Since he had invested all his scholarship money in purchasing limited edition "Guatai" peripheral products, Lin Wuming was actually penniless.

Fortunately, the identity of a level 3 strong ability user is still of some value - Lin Wuming used this identity to apply for several credit cards for advance consumption.

"Forget it, let me do it." Hufeng Toumi took out his wallet and bought five drinks from the vending machine.
