A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 376 Assassinating Shokuhou Misaki
"It's indeed a difficult piece of equipment to operate, so we're practicing." Matsumoto Sugito waved his hand, as if he'd long since become accustomed to the "traffic accidents" happening before his eyes. "As you can see, all members are now able to operate the armor continuously for over five minutes. Furthermore, the intelligent assistance system of the driving armor ensures that even if the operator loses consciousness, they can continue to control the Usurper Spear in combat."

According to him, this is also a special setting for "psychological control" - even if the operators are brainwashed and controlled by Shokuhou Misaki, they will not give up the fight!

——If that’s the case, then why do we need to arrange a driver?
Lin Wuming complained in his mind, but didn't say it out loud. He knew that this setup was most likely for collecting "psychological control" data - if it were unmanned, there would naturally be no way to achieve this purpose.

It can be said that in the eyes of the mastermind behind the scenes, Toshizo Dondo, "people" are the key point, and the gun of usurpation is just an extra.

"If that's the case, what's the point of a driver?" However, Mitsuari Ayu who was standing next to her directly asked this question.

"Someone has to do it to prove that this is our 'personal' victory over level 5." Matsumoto Sugito said seriously.

Lin Wuming shook his head and said nothing more. Mitsuari Aiyu rolled her eyes secretly, but after confirming that the other party sincerely believed it, she no longer had any interest in saying anything more.

After preliminary observation, Lin Wuming came to the conclusion: As a piece of equipment, the Spear of Usurpation is indeed very powerful... although it is not very practical.

If the goal is to kill Shokuhou Misaki, there's no point in doing all this fancy stuff.

In Lin Wuming's opinion, the most effective way is to arrange several snipers to carry out long-range sniping - just like when the enemy attacked him before - the unprepared Shokuhou Misaki will most likely be hit.

Similarly, this thought just flashed through his mind before Lin Wuming put it aside, with no intention of bringing it up again.

Because this method really works.

"How about it, do you want to try it?" asked Sugito Matsumoto.

Lin Wuming shook his head and refused: "This thing is useless to Accelerator."

"After all, this is equipment for psychological mastery," Matsumoto Sugito explained. "We'll develop a special plan for each Level 5 and prepare different equipment. We'll also have a plan for Accelerator..."

Lin Wuming showed a disappointed expression: "Boring, let's talk about it when you are ready to deal with Accelerator. I'm going back..."

"No, please stay." Matsumoto Sugito stretched out his hand to stop him.

At the same time, two Usurper Spears rushed forward from behind, and pile drivers popped out, crossing to block the way to the gate.

"Lin Wuming, you don't have to participate in this operation," Matsumoto Sugito said with a smile. "We at Dead Knot respect the individual wishes of our members, but to ensure the smooth operation, please stay with us for the time being."

"It will be troublesome if you leave the ward for too long," said Lin Wuming.

"Don't worry," said Matsumoto Sugito, "we will take action tomorrow and won't keep you waiting too long."

Lin Wuming shook his head, knowing that the other party was going to put him under house arrest: "Then prepare a quiet room for me. I am still injured."

"Mumaki-sama, lend me your phone," Mitsuari Ayu said, "I need it to call Shokuhou Misaki out."

So Lin Wuming handed over his phone.

—By the way, Shokuhou, would you really fall for this kind of trick?

Lin Wuming asked in his heart.

——Of course not.

There was an immediate response.

Although Shokuhou Misaki was not around, she was always paying attention to the situation here through Lin Wuming's senses.

Level 5 "Psychological Mastery" can also achieve this kind of thing.

Therefore, Lin Wuming was not worried about being placed under house arrest or having his phone confiscated. ——They have exposed enough evidence of their crimes now, so we can just close the net, right?

Lin Wuming felt that there was no need to continue playing with the "Dead Knot" gang.

——No, it’s almost done. I need to investigate more details, so please, Senior Wuming, delay it for a while longer.

—I can't delay. Or should I just kill them all?
——It’s not that necessary… The situation is in our favor now, so it’s better to get evidence of their crimes and solve the case openly.

—You want to be the bait yourself?
——I don’t mind, but you and Sister Runzi will definitely not agree, right?

——Of course.

——I knew it, so~don’t worry, Sister Runzi will appear in my place.

……

Family Side Apartments, "Girls' Dormitory".

"Don't worry, Sister Junko. This is hair dye I asked the security teacher to find for me," Shokuhou Misaki said, holding a bottle of hair dye like a salesperson at a shopping mall. "It's made of pure natural materials, so it colors quickly and is easy to wash out without damaging your hair."

"I know. Don't worry, Your Majesty, I won't mind." Hokaze Junko was using a curling iron to straighten her long curly hair. "In fact, I'm also looking forward to having the same hairstyle as Your Majesty and becoming your Kagemusha."

"Hmm..." Shokuhou Misaki pinched her chin and said, "Am I too willful? Is it better to let Wuming-senpai deal with the enemy directly?"

"Senior Wuming is injured now, so let's not cause him trouble." Fanfeng Runzi said.

……

"'Psychological Mastery' is just ahead, get ready for action!" Matsumoto Sugito shouted the order.

The "knights" under him closed their masks, leaned forward, and pressed their bodies against the Spear of Usurpation.

Then, Matsumoto Sugito looked at Lin Wuming who was sitting in a wheelchair next to him and said, "We are about to prove that it is possible to kill level 5."

"Oh, I wish you good luck." Lin Wuming shrugged.

Matsumoto Sugito didn't move, and continued to stare into Lin Wuming's eyes: "Lin Wuming, I doubt it, does 'psychological piercing' really work on you?"

"You're asking me this kind of question?" Lin Wuming laughed. "No matter how I answer, you won't believe it."

"So that's how it is..." Matsumoto Sugito sighed, but didn't show much surprise. "Level 5 is indeed unreasonably powerful."

"You're not so stupid as to be unreasonable." Lin Wuming said, "Do you want to surrender?"

"Hahaha," Matsumoto Sugito laughed, "Why should we surrender? We've already won!"

"I know you're an undercover agent, but I'm serious about recruiting you," Matsumoto Sugito said, "because you're also a victim of 'psychological control'!"

Lin Wuming looked at him without saying anything.
