A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 477 The real Yondaime-kun

"Thirty hours? That's almost a two-day delay!" Director Sherbin practically jumped up. "What happened? What was the dean doing for so long?"

"The dean..." the secretary said, "is currently hospitalized for treatment. He has been under the control of security forces and is under investigation."

Since the channels of communication with Director Sherbin have always been controlled exclusively by the director, the juvenile reformatory is now leaderless. The old employees loyal to the director are unable to pass on information, and are even busy competing with the new employees who are conducting self-inspections. How can they have time to take care of other things?

As for the dean himself, he was monitored and investigated by the guard force throughout the process. Because of his series of chaotic commands during the invasion of the juvenile reformatory and his order to shut down the AIM diffusion field interference device, he was considered to be an accomplice of the invader.

The dean is now busy trying to clear his name, so how could he have the mind to leak information?

Therefore, Director Sherbin did not receive the information until this time.

Fortunately, due to the significant progress made in "unmanned" technology in the past two years, Director Sherbin shifted his main investment direction to this project.

The "mechanization and generalization of capabilities" project has also passed the initial primitive accumulation stage and no longer requires bloody and cruel human experiments. Therefore, it has been a long time since the "recruitment" of experimental subjects from juvenile reformatory schools.

Therefore, even if the guard forces launch a full investigation, they will not be able to find evidence against them!

In fact, nowadays, Director Sherbin is no longer the biggest supporter of the juvenile detention center.

The reason why we didn't completely cut off ties with the juvenile reformatory was just to be on the safe side - perhaps the "FIVE_Over" project will still need new experimental subjects?
In short, Director Sherbin is not worried at all if it is just the security forces that are targeting him.

Until he saw more detailed information...

"The intruder? Suspected to be Lin Wuming, a Level 5, with a 'Super Electromagnetic Cannon' and 'Psychological Mastery'?" Director Sherbin slammed the table and stood up.

Three level 5 ability users join forces to invade a juvenile reformatory?
He doubted the accuracy of the information before him.

"Are you kidding me?" Director Sherbin glared at the secretary standing in front of him. "What's going on?"

"This is just a hypothesis," the secretary explained quickly. "According to the data collected by the AIM diffusion field detection device at the juvenile reformatory, fluctuations in their abilities were indeed detected during the invasion. However, there is no other evidence proving that Lin Wuming and his group were involved in the invasion."

"With so many prison guards, you couldn't even see the intruder's face clearly?"

"Well... considering that 'mental mastery' might also be involved, this situation is not incomprehensible..."

Director Sherbin stared at the intelligence for a while. "This is just an excuse for those incompetent idiots!"

"Your Excellency, you have a point." The secretary nodded. "However, at least the director does show signs of being mentally manipulated—this is confirmed by both the hospital and the security forces."

Director Sherbin narrowed his eyes and sat back in his chair. "'Psychological Mastery' Shokuhou Misaki, level 5..."

Because of his role in the FIVE_Over project, Director Sherbin is very familiar with those level 5s.

"She...is also a student at Tokiwadai Junior High School?"

"Yes, she just started school this year," the secretary responded quickly. Due to the demands of his job, he had memorized this information even more thoroughly. "And right after she started school, she formed the Shokuhou faction and openly declared her intention to seize the title of 'Eidai-hime'."

After a brief pause, the secretary continued, "Since she is level 5, and has the strong support of 'A Certain Scientific Railgun' Misaka Mikoto, and the reputation of 'Hero' Lin Wuming outside, after evaluation, the possibility of Shokuhou Misaki becoming Eitai Princess is very high." "How high?" Director Sherbin asked.

"If nothing unexpected happens, Shokuhou Misaki will most likely become the 'real Eidai-hime'." said the secretary.

The so-called "true Eidai Princess" means that after obtaining the title of "Eidai Princess", one can keep it until graduation without it being taken away.

Only when these two conditions are met at the same time can one be considered a "true Eternal Princess" and have the opportunity to become a member of the board of directors.

Throughout the history of Tokiwadai Junior High School, there have been many faction leaders who have seized the title of "Eidai Hime-kun", but without exception, they all failed in the process of "defending the title" and were taken away by other factions the following year.

Therefore, no one has ever become a director through this channel.

"If nothing unexpected happens..." Director Sherbin murmured.

The reason why his secretary was able to make an accurate assessment of the possibility of Shokuhou Misaki becoming "Eidai-hime" was because he had already done his homework.

You know, one of the most important tasks of Director Sherbin's personal staff is to track and observe the strength and influence of each faction in Tokiwadai Middle School and evaluate their possibility of seizing the title of "Eternal Princess".

This is a task that Director Sherbin has never relaxed over the years.

Over the years, Tokiwadai Junior High School has never produced a "true Eidai Princess", and it cannot be said that there is no interference from Director Sherbin.

Director Sherbin rubbed his temples hard, then suddenly slammed the table with a loud noise.

"Damn Tokiwadai! When will that damn system be abolished?!"

What Sherbin was referring to was, of course, the system whereby a true Eternal Princess could become a director.

As a vested interest and the director most likely to be replaced, Director Sherbin is of course the one who hates this system the most.

He had proposed to abolish the privileges of "Eternal Princess" more than once at the General Council, but his proposal was rejected without exception.

The only thing to be thankful for is that becoming the "true Eidai-hime" is a very difficult goal to achieve. Even if there are no outsiders interfering, the fierce competition among the factions within Tokiwadai Middle School alone is enough to interrupt the re-election of most "Eidai-hime".

After all, once you get the double-bead badge representing "Eternal Princess", you will inevitably become the target of criticism from all other factions, and then be besieged by all factions.

Even a Level 5 Shokuhou Misaki couldn't go against this trend...

"No, if it's 'psychological mastery', then it's really possible..." Director Sherbin's expression became more serious.

"Sir, so this time we also have to..." the secretary said in a low voice.

"No!" Director Sherbin suddenly looked up. "Let's not move yet! After all, I'm not the only one who doesn't want those little girls to become directors!"
