A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 468 Shokuho's Actions

"In other words, the Sha faction has now formed an alliance with us?"

In the activity room of the Shokuhou clique, Misaka Mikoto attended today's afternoon tea event as usual. Ever since she decided to join the Shokuhou clique, she was no longer so averse to such activities.

Putting aside other things for now, at least in terms of the quality of black tea and snacks, the "Queen's" tea party is impeccable.

"Indeed, we signed a secret agreement as faction leaders," Shokuhou Misaki nodded. "But having said that, it's still a secret from the ordinary members below, so you should be careful not to leak it."

Misaka Mikoto remained motionless holding the teacup, frowning in deep thought.

"What's wrong? Is Misaka-san dissatisfied with something?" Shokuhou Misaki asked.

Misaka Mikoto holds a special position in the Shokuhou faction - strictly speaking, Misaka Mikoto has not joined the Shokuhou faction, and her relationship with the Shokuhou faction is still that of "partners"; but on the other hand, her importance is irreplaceable. Whether it is the Misaka sisters or the relationship with Lin Wuming, it is destined that Shokuhou Misaki will never completely sever ties with her.

That's why Shokuhou Misaki tacitly allowed the status quo to continue and chose this time to exchange information with her and listen to her opinions.

"It's not that I'm dissatisfied," Misaka Mikoto put down the teacup in her hand and scratched her head. "After all, the ultimate goal is to take care of my sisters. I have no right or position to comment, but I always feel that..."

"Do you think it's inappropriate for others to use the overall interests of the faction to make deals without permission?" Shokuhou Misaki asked back.

"..." After a moment of silence, Misaka Mikoto nodded, "That's about what I mean. And it's not just about our faction, but also about the interests of Wuming Senior, right?"

It is not difficult to see from the information revealed by Sha Danshan that her greatest reliance on sneaking into the juvenile reformatory this time was actually Lin Wuming's influence.

She wanted to "put the blame" on Lin Wuming so that the juvenile reformatory and the security forces would not dare to act rashly, and thus she could continue to investigate unscrupulously!

Misaka Mikoto was unhappy about this alone.

"That's indeed the case." Shokuhou Misaki nodded, confirming Misaka Mikoto's judgment, "But I believe that Wuming-senpai will also approve of this alliance, so don't worry."

"Yeah, Wuming-senpai won't mind..." Misaka Mikoto repeated gloomily.

Misaka Mikoto knew that given the "tacit understanding" between Shokuhou Misaki and Mumei-senpai, what she said was undoubtedly the truth, which made her even more depressed.

Feeling unhappy, Misaka Mikoto suddenly felt that the tea in front of her was no longer fragrant, and the snacks were no longer tasty, so she raised her head and drank the tea in the cup in one gulp: "Okay, I already know the situation, so I'll leave first."

Shokuhou Misaki sat there without moving, watching Misaka Mikoto leave.

"Okay, Misaka-san has been appeased," Shokuhou Misaki thought silently, "So what should we do next? Should we be more proactive and give the sand fan a helping hand?"

Because the situation has developed to a point that was not mentioned in Lin Wuming's memory information, Shokuhou Misaki also felt unprecedented heavy pressure when making the decision.

In the absence of any reference answers, she could only rely on her own thinking to find a path to ultimate victory.

"Your Majesty," Hokaze Junko walked in, carrying a teapot, "Is the tea party with Misaka-san over yet?"

"Yes, let everyone in," Shokuhou Misaki said. "So," Hokaze Junko refilled the empty cup with tea, "should we announce our alliance with the Sand Faction?"

Shokuhou Misaki had no reservations about Hokaze Junko, so she told her everything about the "alliance" as soon as possible.

As the actual manager of the faction, Fanfeng Runzi also has to make a decision whether to inform the members below of this news.

"No, just a few of us know." Shokuhou Misaki shook her head. "If too many people knew, it would be troublesome."

"I understand," Hokaze Junko nodded. "However, word of your secret conversation with Lord Sha yesterday has spread, Your Majesty. Both the Shikura and Shuijing families are speculating whether we have reached some secret agreement."

"Tsk, what a damned intelligence capability! The factional politics in this school are really mature!" Shokuhou Misaki complained.

Although she had sent away everyone around the health room yesterday and ensured that the content of the conversation would not be leaked, the "secret conversation" itself could not be concealed.

"Ignore them and let them guess," Shokuhou Misaki said. "Since this is a 'confidential conversation,' there's no way they could easily find out what we talked about."

"Also," Shokuhou Misaki continued, "for the next period of time, we'll resume our extracurricular activities."

Because of the content of the "alliance" with Shadan Fan, the things that need to be investigated are mainly outside the school.

Moreover, participating in off-campus activities was also a disguised form of submitting a "safety statement" to let the other two factions know that their actions were not aimed at winning the title of "Eternal Princess".

"Okay," Hokaze Junko nodded, "So what are the specific activities?"

Closing her eyes and thinking for a moment, Shokuhou Misaki suddenly asked, "Were there any members of our faction attending the launch ceremony for the unmanned subway project the day before yesterday?"

"Yes," Hokaze Junko replied immediately. "Matsudaira-san and Ogasawara-san, their families' companies are involved in the unmanned subway project, so they represented their families in the related activities that day."

A considerable proportion of the rich girls attending Tokiwadai Junior High School come from families with businesses in Academy City.

Therefore, it is quite common for them to attend similar events as representatives.

"Not only us, members from the other three families also attended the ceremony." Hokaze Junko added.

"Then let's start the investigation with the unmanned subway project," said Shokuhou Misaki.

"Okay," Hokaze Junko didn't question the Queen's decision. She immediately took note of the matter and asked, "Is there anything wrong with the ceremony?"

"The ritual itself is fine," Shokuhou Misaki said, fiddling with the remote. "The problem lies with Director Sherbin."

When exchanging information with Sha Danshan yesterday, the other party directly revealed that the real mastermind behind the frame-up of Wulin Yexiao four years ago, the "big shot", was Director Sherbin!
It is said that this information was obtained directly from the director of the juvenile reformatory by Shadanshan using "psychological control".

Because she believed in her own abilities, Shokuhou Misaki decided to accept this information.
