A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 582: First Contact with a Magician

"What's wrong, Senior Wuming?" Misaka Mikoto was a little confused when she noticed that Lin Wuming suddenly nodded in the direction of an empty place.

Shokuhou Misaki followed Lin Wuming's gaze, but with her eyesight, she could not see anything in the vast night except the silhouettes of tall buildings in the distance.

However, she still "saw" the two magicians in the distance through Lin Wuming's vision.

"Ah, it's finally here..." Shokuhou Misaki and Lin Wuming both sighed with mixed feelings.

"Is there anyone there?" asked Tiger Bee Toumi, looking in that direction with sharp eyes.

Hufeng Toumi accurately understood the meaning of Lin Wuming's actions, but she couldn't see that far.

"Two interesting... no, powerful guys," Lin Wuming said. "The straight-line distance is 5,600 meters. They actually hid so far away and spied on us. It's amazing they thought of this."

Although his duel with Sogiita Gunha was open to the public and no one was prohibited from watching, deliberately hiding so far away to watch the fight could only be understood as "peeping".

"Let's go." Lin Wuming retracted his gaze and said, "They're probably coming over too."

"Hey~~" The three girls immediately complained.

It’s fine that they have to duel with Sogiita Gunha every weekend, but why did this strange guy appear and disturb them and Wuming Senior!

Compared to the other two who were unaware of the situation, Shokuhou Misaki thought more.

——Why did Kamijou Kaori and Stiyl, two magicians belonging to the British Puritan Church, suddenly come to see Wuming Senior?
——Until now, we should have nothing to do with the magic side!

Lin Wuming shook his head secretly - I don't know either, but I guess it must be related to Chairman Aleister, right?
Whenever something that he couldn't understand happened, he would probably be right to blame it on Director Aleister.

This is a lesson that Lin Wuming has only recently learned.

Sure enough, after wandering aimlessly for more than ten minutes on the way home, just as Lin Wuming had guessed, they met two magicians coming towards them.

"Wuming!" Tiger Bee Toumi, who was keenly aware of the other party's strong eyesight, immediately became alert and put his hand on Lin Wuming's shoulder to remind him.

Lin Wuming patted the girl's hand and said, "Don't worry, leave it to me."

So, Hufeng Toumi let go of his hand and let Lin Wuming maneuver the wheelchair forward by himself.

But at the same time as he let go, Hufeng Toumi took out the ribbon and bandage, and stared at the exhibitionist girl holding a long knife opposite him with a fierce look.

Misaka Mikoto also quietly held a few coins in her hands.

Shokuhou Misaki smiled beautifully, but she never put down the remote control from the beginning.

This was the first time in Lin Wuming's life that he had dealt with a magician - not counting that guy Aleister - and to be honest, it was impossible not to be nervous.

But the three girls behind him were his strongest support. Lin Wuming, who was familiar with them, knew their reactions without looking back.

So he immediately felt relieved, regained his composure, and looked at the two magicians in front of him.

Although Stiyl was tall, he was surprisingly not good at close combat and was a standard magician. So Lin Wuming didn't pay much attention to him.

What needs special attention is the girl beside him—a "saint" of which there are no more than twenty in the world.

In terms of probability, it is even rarer than level 5 psychics.

Although they were all magicians, the very existence of "saints" was a form of "magic"—their powerful physical qualities alone were enough to crush 99.9999% of the people in this world. With such a rare specimen before him, Lin Wuming naturally had to observe it carefully...

From the outside, Kamisaki Kaori is undoubtedly an ordinary human girl.

From the exposed part of her body, it can be seen that she has indeed undergone rigorous and professional training, but that is all, and she is far from being "inhuman".

If he didn’t know the original plot, Lin Wuming probably wouldn’t have imagined how much powerful strength was hidden in the body of such a not-so-strong girl.

"That woman is very powerful!" Tiger Bee Toumi behind suddenly said.

"Huh? Did you see anything?" Misaka Mikoto asked in a low voice.

"Humph, otherwise why would Wuming keep staring at her!"

"...Tiger Bee has a point." Shokuhou Misaki nodded in agreement.

—Wuming Senior, did you hear that? Stop staring at me.
Shokuhou Misaki was broadcasting the conversation in real time.

"..." Lin Wuming was speechless for a moment, but he also realized that remaining silent was not a solution. "Since you two have invited me so late at night, why don't you introduce yourselves first?"

Kamijou Kaori coughed lightly and looked at her companions beside her. According to the prior agreement, all matters dealing with Academy City officials were to be left to Stiyl.

If he is called an “unknown director”, then he can be considered an official staff member, right?

Stiyl stepped forward and responded, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Lin Wuming...? I'm Stiyl Magnus, and this is my partner, Kanzaki Kaori. We're from the English Puritan Church, and we're here on official business."

"Anglican Puritanism? I've heard of it," Misaka Mikoto whispered, sharing the little trivia she knew. "It's said to be one of the three major sects of Christianity, and quite influential in the religious world."

The students at Tokiwadai Junior High School come from all over the world, including many international students from the UK, and this information was heard from them.

"But it's really strange. It seems that we rarely hear of religious people coming to Academy City." Misaka Mikoto added.

Ordinary citizens don't know the other side of this world - the opposition between magic and science.

However, based on common sense, we also realize that the Academy City of Science and religion are naturally incompatible.

"Uh... I'm Lin Wuming. It seems you already know this." Lin Wuming also introduced himself in return.

Then he turned around to look at the three girls behind him and continued, "They are Misaka Mikoto, Shokuhou Misaki, and Tiger Bee Toumi... Well, you should know."

Lin Wuming doesn’t know how to read people’s expressions, but it doesn’t matter, as long as Shokuhou Misaki knows how to do it.

Stiyl reacted quickly. After the "reminder", he seemed to understand Lin Wuming's response as some kind of threat. He reflexively took out a few cards and began to protect his mind.

"We have no ill intentions." Kamiya Kaoru said quickly. She was actually a little afraid of "psychological control", but as a saint, she was naturally more relaxed, so she took over the responsibility of the conversation on behalf of Stiyl.

Steele regretted it at this moment. If he had known that "Psychological Control" was there, he would not have been so anxious to see Lin Wuming.
