A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 293 The Third Level 5
"..." Seeing that he had walked into a trap and bumped into the security teacher, Komaba Reidu was speechless.

"If you arrest him, the crime will be aggravated." Aiho Yomikawa said as she looked at the little giant in front of her.

After pondering for a moment, Komaba Reidu recalled the brilliant plan given by Hattori Hanzo: "If I can point out the whereabouts of my companions, can I get a reduced sentence?"

"It's not like they'll sentence you yet," Yomikawa Aiho waved her hand, "but it's true that confessions are rewarded with leniency. Tell me, where are those two guys?"

Komaba Reid raised his hand and pointed to the center of the commotion: "There."

"Ah..." Yomikawa Aiho sighed, "It is just as I expected."

Of course, the security teacher could not hide their little tricks, but saving people is the duty of the security force, so Aiho Yomikawa would not be angry about it.

"Come back with me to the police car, and then wait for your companions to come out." Huang Quanchuan Aihui said, "Don't worry, we will definitely bring them out."

After thinking for a moment, Komaba Reid nodded: "Okay."

Yomikawa Aiho secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was still an underage student in theory, the boy in front of her was growing up too fast. His physical fitness was far beyond his peers... no, the scope could even be extended to the entire "human" group.

At least, Yomikawa Aiho had never seen anyone as strong as Komaba Reidu in real life. There were even security guards who suspected he was a test subject for some body modification experiment and conducted a special investigation.

——If he wants to arrest him violently, it will be difficult for even me to suppress him, right?

It’s great that the other party is willing to cooperate.

"Hey, that one over there!" Yomikawa Aiho suddenly shouted, "That's you, the girl in the baseball cap. The road ahead is closed now. Don't go any closer."

Although the majority of the crowd fled in the direction of this place, there were still some people who wanted to get closer to watch the excitement. Along the way, Yomiuri Aiho would stop them when she saw this situation.

—Wearing a baseball cap, a girl? Are you talking about me?

Misaka Mikoto, who was moving against the crowd, stopped and looked back cautiously.

——She has already changed her clothes and disguised herself as a boy. She should be calling other people, right?

But she looked around, and there seemed to be no one else wearing a baseball cap...

"Huh? Is it really me?" Misaka Mikoto said in astonishment, "Is there something wrong with my disguise?"

"Disguise?" Yomikawa Aiho, who had already come to the front, heard the girl's words and couldn't help but observe carefully. "Are you trying to disguise yourself as a boy? Why would you do such a thing? It's very suspicious!"

He even wore a baseball cap, lowering the brim to hide his face, looking completely sneaky. Considering the current situation...

"Please show me your student ID."

"Huh?" Misaka Mikoto was stunned.

The reason she disguised herself as a man was to deceive the organizers of the "underground arena" and try to sneak into the arena to destroy this illegal event from the inside.

As it turned out, her disguise was not very successful and was immediately seen through.

It even backfired and aroused the suspicion of the security teacher.

——What should I do next? I have to confess, right? I have to tell the teacher my name honestly... Then the teacher will definitely ask why I came here, and then my hacking skills will be exposed... and finally, the security teacher will preach...

In an instant, Misaka Mikoto went through the entire process in her mind.

Although she is level 5 and a good student, due to her personality, she is often admonished and lectured by teachers at school.

Misaka Mikoto is not afraid of the criticism, it's just... quite troublesome, and it can be seen that the teachers are really thinking about her, so she doesn't even have a reason to refute... and this security teacher looks quite fierce. She subdued such a ferocious-looking big guy next to her, which shows her deterrent power!
Misaka Mikoto was hesitant and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Ah, Misaka-san, so you are here!" A familiar voice suddenly came from behind.

Misaka Mikoto looked back and saw that the person who called her was a discipline committee member wearing an armband - it was Gufa Meiwei, one of Lin Wuming's companions who had acted together yesterday.

"It's Senior Gufa, good evening!" Misaka Mikoto responded quickly.

"Misaka...are you Misaka Mikoto?" Yomikawa Aiho was surprised.

"It's like this," said Gufa Meiwei, "because we worked together yesterday, Misaka-san is here to help today as well."

Yomigawa Aiho had no doubts.

It is true that asking "ordinary students" for help is not the style of the discipline committee, but if it is level 5, that is another matter.

From the perspective of the Discipline Committee, this is reasonable.

So, the reason why Misaka Mikoto disguised herself became clear - to investigate the "underground arena".

Although there were some deviations in the process, Aiho Yomigawa finally got the correct result.

"I understand, but this kind of highly dangerous case and operation..." As a security instructor, Yomikawa Aiho instinctively wanted to lecture her, but quickly shut up. "Forget it, there's no point in saying this now. Go, be careful, and don't do anything rash."

The two girls bowed together and said goodbye to Yomikawa Aiho.

Then Gufa Meiwei grabbed Misaka Mikoto's hand and said, "Follow me."

Then, under the leadership of Miwei Gufa, Misaka Mikoto came all the way to the "front-line command center" of the Discipline Committee - a multi-functional integrated command vehicle.

"Although Misaka-san isn't a member of the Judgment Committee, the situation is urgent, so I can only ask for your help," said Gufa Meiwei. "The power of our existing ground-penetrating radar is limited, so we haven't been able to determine the exact location of the underground arena. I wonder if your superpowers, Misaka-san..."

"Radar?" Misaka Mikoto's eyes lit up. "Oh, yes, there's this trick!"

"Calm down, Misaka-san." The discipline officer in charge of operating the instrument looked up and said, "Although it's called a radar, this device for exploring the underground world is essentially a sonar—it uses sound waves instead of electromagnetic waves."

It turned out that they wanted to ask Misaka Mikoto to help modify the equipment and temporarily increase the power of the machine.

"I see..." Misaka Mikoto scratched her head. "That's not a problem, but why don't you just go down? I heard that a level 5 has already opened the entrance?"

"We are an organization," Gufameiwei explained, "and a large one at that, so we must act as planned as possible, otherwise chaos is likely to occur."

Of course, there is a more important reason - to use a reasonable excuse to delay Misaka Mikoto.

The purpose and persistence of the Discipline Committee is to prevent "ordinary citizens" from being involved in danger.

The so-called "ordinary citizens" basically refers to all citizens except the discipline committee members and guards, even level 5s are no exception.

In fact, if possible, the discipline committee also wanted to catch up with the two level 5s, Accelerator and Maizono Shiori, but unfortunately they couldn't do it.

Therefore, we have no choice but to secure the third place, level 5 Misaka Mikoto.

You know, the crime scene this time is located a hundred meters underground. If several level 5s fight each other down there and cause a landslide, we're doomed!
