A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 411: Taking advantage of the situation
Yes, that's why Misaka Mikoto was so obsessed with getting the "truth" from Lin Wuming - even though she had actually guessed that the "clone" did exist.

It was entirely because the girl thought that Lin Wuming was a companion and confidant on "her side".

Therefore, no matter how outrageous the "truth" was, as long as Lin Wuming told her in person, she could accept it.

In other words, it can also be understood that Misaka Mikoto subconsciously judged that she could not accept the "truth" alone, so she subconsciously wanted to find a companion to bear it all together.

However, Lin Wuming seemed to be completely unable to understand the girl's feelings, and always rejected and avoided the questions very decisively.

Not only did he refuse to tell her the truth, he even told Misaka Mikoto to "investigate it yourself."

This made Misaka Mikoto furious. Of course she knew she could check it herself, and she also had the corresponding strength and skills.

But the problem is...

"What should we do if we really find out something?" Misaka Mikoto controlled more and more iron sand, which rushed towards Lin Wuming like a black sandstorm.

That’s right, what the girl was worried about was not “not being able to find” anything, but what to do if she “really found” something.

Unlike in the original work, when Misaka Mikoto discovered the existence of her "sisters", it was already too late - by that time, nearly 10,000 Misaka sisters had already died tragically in the "Absolute Ability User Evolution Plan".

In that situation, Misaka Mikoto was forced into a desperate situation in an instant - because an irreversible tragedy had already occurred, she had no choice but to bear everything alone.

But the situation is different now. All Misaka Mikoto knows is that her genetic map was used to make her clone, and only Dolly and Dolly have been exposed.

What Misaka Mikoto cannot accept is that the "cloning" experiment itself violates ethics and morality, and she doesn't know how to face Dolly and Dolly.

However, the cautious and secretive behavior of Shokuhou Misaki and Lin Wuming made her have more bad associations.

There had been urban legends that Academy City was secretly forming an army of cloned psychics—but with only two people, it couldn't be called an "army."

This is the part that Misaka Mikoto dare not face.

It’s easy to explain a pair of “twin sisters” who have been disguised by Shokuhou Misaki, but what if more people who look exactly like her appear? How should she explain it to her friends, classmates, and family?
"So, tell me quickly that this is all fake!" Misaka Mikoto excitedly controlled the iron sand and used the "Sand Waterfall Burial" on Lin Wuming.

The absolute gap in quality made Lin Wuming unable to confront the iron sand coming from all directions head-on.

but--

boom!
Lin Wuming took the time to take out the Deringer pistol and shot himself in the head.

"Bullet time" was turned on, and the flow of time in Lin Wuming's perception suddenly slowed down. Misaka Mikoto's iron sand became "slow flying" in his eyes.

Therefore, Lin Wuming took advantage of the time difference and fully mobilized his only ten liters of corundum to defeat them one by one.

For a moment, it actually created the illusion that the diamond sand he was controlling actually had a lot of illusions.

After a period of secluded training, Lin Wuming has become more proficient in the use of his Nen ability and "bullet time". Now he can completely dissolve Misaka Mikoto's "Sand Falls Burial" within one "bullet time", and even have enough energy to fight back... But Lin Wuming's "bullet time" did not last too long, because Misaka Mikoto suddenly saw Lin Wuming raising a gun to "commit suicide". She was stunned and hurriedly used her electromagnetic force to stop the bullet from flying.

Before Lin Wuming could save himself, Misaka Mikoto had already saved him - this also accidentally broke Lin Wuming's next attack.

Lin Wuming had originally planned to use the time difference created by "bullet time" to launch a counterattack.

But now, we can only keep our distance.

Taking advantage of the breakthrough created by the previous round of explosion, Lin Wuming took the opportunity to steer his wheelchair backwards rapidly.

Misaka Mikoto's rescue just now was a subconscious reflex, and she immediately realized that it was impossible for Lin Wuming to suddenly shoot himself in the middle of a fight - that must be some kind of fighting style of his.

Although this method is very strange, it is not uncommon for people with super powers to use various props and methods to exert their abilities.

After realizing this, and in order to prevent Lin Wuming from shooting herself to death in case he really lost his mind or made a mistake in operation, Misaka Mikoto used electromagnetic force to forcibly take the pocket pistol from Lin Wuming's hand.

Lin Wuming did not resist, allowed himself to be disarmed, and even threw away Deringer's pistol.

And took this opportunity to expand the distance between the two to fifty meters.

Misaka Mikoto suddenly became alert - this distance is almost the maximum range of her "A Certain Scientific Railgun"!
The coin used as a cannonball will be burned up within a distance of fifty meters due to the intense friction with the air. After exceeding fifty meters, not even much metal jet will be left.

Similarly, Misaka Mikoto's usual electric shock would not be very effective at this distance - unless she was willing to kill, increase the power directly, and use a real "thunder strike" with the intention of killing Lin Wuming.

On the other hand, Senior Wuming - his ability test data is not difficult to find - his telekinesis has an effective range of more than 100 meters, and the shells of his "telekinetic acceleration cannon" can only begin to melt after accelerating to 100 meters.

The other combat methods of the nameless senior's Nen ability can also be stably exerted from a distance of a hundred meters...

In other words, at a distance of more than fifty meters, the nameless senior has an absolute advantage!
Misaka Mikoto realized this in an instant and took immediate action.

She rode on the clouds and controlled the iron sand cloud to chase Lin Wuming; at the same time, she controlled the electromagnetic force to capture the wheelchair under Lin Wuming and pulled it towards her.

The output of level 5 is extraordinary, and Lin Wuming's telekinesis cannot resist it, so he can only watch the distance between himself and Misaka Mikoto getting closer and closer.

It felt like a terrifying demon was approaching me, which was really exciting.

But Lin Wuming did not sit still and wait for death - he pushed his Nen ability towards Misaka Mikoto, pushing her away from him.

His Nen ability could not withstand Misaka Mikoto's electromagnetic force, but he was still able to push a girl weighing less than 50 kilograms.

Pulling and pushing, the two of them were like two magnets that repel each other, maintaining an insurmountable distance between them as they moved at high speed at low altitude...
