A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 387 Telepathic Communication
"That's true." Lin Wuming said. Up to now, due to various reasons, he has never really attended school for a single day.

"As expected," Umihara Mitsuki nodded. "A club like this, formed by people with similar superpowers—or perhaps a enthusiasts' club would be more appropriate, since it's not a formal organization recognized by the school—in short, the only way to get in touch with them is by going to school, so..."

So Lin Wuming, who didn't go to school, certainly didn't know about the existence of these circles.

"Then, Haiyuan, you are also one of the strongest candidates, right?" Lin Wuming asked with interest.

"Unfortunately, I'm not nominated." Mitsuki Kaihara shook his head. He didn't seem to be lying, but he also looked lost.

Lin Wuming was surprised: "How could that be? Are you level 4?"

"That's true, but I'm not good at fighting," Umihara Mitsuki shrugged. "Although I've helped classmates before, my opponents back then were all delinquent boys without special abilities. It can't really be considered a fight, right?"

Looking at the well-mannered young man in front of him, who always had a sunny smile on his face, Lin Wuming nodded to show his understanding.

It's easy to imagine that he is a nobleman born into wealth and there is really no reason or need for him to fight.

Given Mitsuki Kaihara's status and family power, it would be more efficient for him to hire bodyguards and thugs rather than fight in person.

"If Lin Wuming wants to find a way to improve his combat effectiveness," Haiyuan Guanggui said with an apologetic look, "I'm afraid I can't provide any valuable help."

On the contrary, he actually wanted to ask Lin Wuming for advice on how to use telekinesis to fight.

Before coming to the appointment, Mitsuki Kaihara also did his homework.

Moreover, he is the grandson of Director Haiyuan, so he knows a lot of information that is classified to a certain level.

He didn't comment on Lin Wuming's "tyranny" and didn't care much about it. After all, in Haiyuan Guanggui's opinion, Lin Wuming had done nothing wrong. The people he killed were all bad people, and he himself was not a bad person, so of course there was no need to worry about anything.

What really concerned Haiyuan Guanggui was the battle between Lin Wuming and Yuwang Wanhua. It was also that battle that established Lin Wuming's status as the "strongest candidate".

After all, before that, the "strongest candidate" for telekinesis was Yuwang Wanhua.

After all, Mitsuki Umihara is a boy. No matter what, he has some desire to become stronger, and he also looks forward to the title of "the strongest".

After all, I'm still in middle school.

Lin Wuming was able to tie with Yuwang Wanhua at level 3, which shows that he must have his own unique application of Nen ability, which is what Haiyuan Guanggui wants to explore.

Mitsuki Kaihara did not hide anything and confessed his thoughts.

"This... my method probably has no reference value." Lin Wuming couldn't help scratching his head after hearing this. Why is he so good at fighting? It's because of "bullet time"!

But this does not fall into the category of "Nen ability" and cannot be taught to Mitsuki Kaihara.

Mitsuki Kaihara didn't take it seriously. He knew that the development and application of abilities of each ability user were different - after all, it was the external manifestation of "personal reality". It would be strange if one could copy the effects of others' abilities so easily.

"I know that the unique abilities of each ability user are not so easy to imitate, so I said it was for reference. Doesn't Lin Wuming think so too?"

"That's right." Seeing that he was serious, Lin Wuming sighed and opened a telekinetic barrier in front of him, "But..."

As he said this, he looked at Mitsuki Kaihara.

Although telekinesis cannot be directly observed with the naked eye, as fellow telekinetic users, they can more or less sense each other's telekinesis. Haiyuan Guanggui understood Lin Wuming's intention and attacked with his own telekinesis.

"Although it's a level 3 telekinetic barrier, but..." He habitually prepared to utter a line of praise, "Huh? So fragile! It's really only at level 3!"

After all, Mitsuki Umihara is a level 4, and his telekinesis strength is there. Even if he is not good at fighting, it is still easy for him to use telekinesis blocks to hit people like this - this is the instinctive operation of telekinesis users.

Lin Wuming's mental barrier collapsed at the first touch, and it felt to Haiyuan Guanggui like a low-quality riot shield that could be smashed by a strong person with a wooden stick.

This is quite different from what Mitsuki Kaihara expected.

Even at level 3, this level of strength is considered low.

"Try again." Lin Wuming coughed dryly and deployed the mental barrier again.

——Is it because of the mistake I made just now?

Mitsuki Kaihara cooperated and blasted out the telekinesis block again, but just like last time, he easily broke through this telekinesis barrier.

But then, he crashed into the second barrier; then the third, the fourth, the fifth...

In Mitsuki Kaihara's perception, his own mental power block successively broke through more than ten layers of mental power barriers and was eventually consumed.

"This is my method. If one barrier isn't enough, I'll stack a few more until I have enough," Lin Wuming explained. "That's why my combat power is slightly stronger than a normal level 3."

"After all, the telekinetic barrier has no thickness, so it is indeed a solution." Umihara Mitsuki said, "But, doing this..."

"To do this requires a sufficiently fast operating speed." Lin Wuming nodded and continued, "And my telepathic ability has a certain advantage only in operating speed."

There is actually no essential difference in the effect between Lin Wuming's approach and simply setting up a sufficiently "thick" barrier.

The only difference is that Lin Wuming's approach is based on his compromise with his weak mental ability.

Within a limited time, the limited mental power is quickly mobilized to create the illusion of abundant local mental power.

"But is it really possible to do this in actual combat?" asked Mitsuki Kaihara.

He can do the same operation himself, and can complete it in 0.1 second. However, in actual combat, is 0.1 second really fast enough?
Dealing with ordinary opponents might be no problem, but facing a telekinetic user of Yuwang Wanhua's level...

"I can do it," Lin Wuming nodded and said, "At least in actual combat, I can do it."

Maybe this is what they call "talent"?

Mitsuki Kaihara nodded silently and accepted this statement.

It seems that Lin Wuming is born to be good at fighting, otherwise he would not be able to become a "hero".

"So, how can I help you?" Haiyuan Guanggui temporarily gave up learning how to apply Lin Wuming's abilities and asked, "My strengths... don't seem to be very suitable for combat."

"It doesn't matter," Lin Wuming said, "What I want to learn is - precision manipulation."
