A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 373: Foul-level Strongman

Shokuhou Misaki suddenly mentioned the matter of Umihara Mitsuki, which made Lin Wuming calm down a little - to be honest, he almost forgot about this matter.

After all, it was just a random excuse, and Lin Wuming didn't really take it to heart.

But then again, if I could really communicate with Mitsuki Kaihara, maybe it would really help improve my own strength, right?
Lin Wuming's feelings were half genuine, half fake. But after every interaction with Accelerator, his desire to become stronger grew stronger. And seeking the advice of the Level 4 telekinetic user, Mitsuki Kaihara, was probably the only practical way Lin Wuming could think of to become stronger.

Lin Wuming was hospitalized again. Although his hands and feet were not broken this time, he could not move freely for a short time because of broken ribs and damaged internal organs.

On the second day of hospitalization, Aiho Yomikawa brought the wheelchair that had been unused at home for a few days to the ward.

"The autopsy results are in," Yomikawa Aiho explained the findings of yesterday's case while delivering the wheelchair. "The cause of death was a sudden heart attack, but the deceased had no history of heart disease, so it's highly likely that it was drug-induced."

"Poisoning?" Lin Wuming said, "As expected, they want to frame Accelerator."

"That's what we've been thinking. Someone wants to frame him." Yomikawa Aiho looked troubled. "But Accelerator is refusing to cooperate with our investigation, and no one dares to question him..."

"After all, that happened," Shokuhou Misaki said, "he would kill even someone like Wuming-senpai who helped him so much! He's really lacking in common sense!"

Tiger Bee Toumi snorted coldly, still looking indignant.

"But we can't relax our investigation either." Aiho Yomikawa said seriously.

She also understood the situation at the scene yesterday. It can be said that it was just a little bit away from becoming an irreversible situation!
Thanks to Lin Wuming's timely appearance to save the situation, and for unknown reasons, he attracted Accelerator's attention.

Otherwise, given the destructive power Accelerator displayed yesterday, if he gets enraged and goes berserk, the consequences will be disastrous!

The person behind the plot to assassinate Accelerator clearly had bad intentions. To prevent such incidents from happening again, the security forces had to get to the bottom of it no matter what.

Today, Yomikawa Aiho came over to ask Lin Wuming about the situation. After all, Lin Wuming and Accelerator had a special relationship, which was obvious to everyone.

Although it is hard to say whether this "special relationship" is positive or negative...

"Accelerator... From what I understand, he doesn't want to kill, nor does he want to be endlessly challenged," Lin Wuming said. "Because there are too many idiots who overestimate their own abilities, that's what makes him irritated and becomes extreme."

"Even in this situation, you are still speaking for him..." Even Yomikawa Aiho couldn't help but be shocked.

"Because I want to beat him and take the title of 'Number One in the World'!" Lin Wuming said.

"...Wuming, you are really serious." Huangquanchuan Aiho sighed.

After all, after witnessing Accelerator's strength with his own eyes, even a guardian who leans towards Lin Wuming could not say such irresponsible encouragement as "You can do it".

"Of course I know the difference in strength between Accelerator and me." Lin Wuming said with a wry smile, "That's why I want to protect and help him as much as possible."

According to Lin Wuming's explanation, Accelerator is already so powerful, so he must not be allowed to go on a killing spree - this can somewhat limit the extent to which he can exert his strength, and when challenging him, even if he is defeated, he will not be killed directly, and there will be another chance next time.

"If he is really used to killing people, then I will be in real danger." Lin Wuming said.

"That being said, he showed no mercy yesterday and was determined to kill you," Huang Quanchuan Aihui said. "Didn't I survive in the end?" Lin Wuming said with a smile.

Huang Quanchuan Aihui shook her head, and after making sure that Lin Wuming's injury was not serious, she left the hospital.

"Senior Wuming." Shokuhou Misaki's voice sounded in her mind.

Lin Wuming perked up - this encrypted call meant that Shokuhou Misaki had something very important to say.

The girl looked at him seriously. "I think that Wuming-senpai's plan is unreliable! Putting all hope on Accelerator's conscience...isn't it?"

"As expected, let me try to brainwash him and make him give up on that plan..."

"No," Lin Wuming rejected the girl's proposal, "Accelerator... I don't think your ability can work on him in the long run."

Perhaps due to the effects of "First Sight Kill", Accelerator's mental will can be temporarily manipulated, but over time, with Accelerator's strength, he will definitely be able to break the effect of "Psychological Control".

Even more likely, brainwashing wouldn't succeed from the start. After all, that was Accelerator!
"Wuming-senpai..." Shokuhou Misaki said dissatisfiedly, "Aren't you too biased towards Accelerator?"

"I'm not leaning towards him," Lin Wuming responded. "After all, that's Accelerator, a guy who can even understand and master magic. It doesn't seem strange to say that he can break your psychological control, right?"

"..." Shokuhou Misaki was sullen, "As expected, I'm still too weak?"

"It should be said that Accelerator was too foul." Lin Wuming said.

Accelerator is completely a BUG-level existence on the scientific side. In the original plot, if he had not encountered the "real BUG" "Fantasy Breaker", there would be no possibility of "losing" at all.

With such an opponent, it’s no wonder that Lin Wuming is so cautious.

"Alright..." Shokuhou Misaki said helplessly, "Anyway, it's best for Wuming-senpai not to meet that guy again—every time we meet, he ends up injured, it's really terrible!"

"I hope so too." Lin Wuming said.

Shokuhou Misaki rolled her eyes. She could see through Lin Wuming's true thoughts, so of course she didn't believe what he said.

Shortly after Yomikawa Aiho left, Gufa Miwei came to the ward.

After visiting the patient, Gufa Miwei placed the backpack she had brought with her on her lap. Then, she looked at Shokuhou Misaki with some concern.

"Shokuhou Misaki is someone you can trust...you know." Lin Wuming guessed her concerns and said.

"Well...that's true. It's 'psychological control' after all." Gufa Meiwei thought about it and nodded.

In front of this girl, hiding things and keeping secrets are meaningless, so it's better to just be honest with her...
