A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 591 This is Wuming’s territory
"Wuming-senpai also met that girl named Index? What a fate... Huh? She ran away again?" Misaka Mikoto was very dissatisfied. "That's too much! That girl is so ungrateful!"

Lin Wuming, in turn, comforted Misaka Mikoto: "She is on the run after all, so it's normal for her to be a little cautious. Besides, she probably left us on her own initiative because she didn't want to implicate others."

"Actually, there is no need to leave. We can protect her." Misaka Mikoto was still indignant, especially after learning that Stiyl, Kanzaki Kaori and Index were actually in the same group.

"Okay, don't think about it anymore. After all, this is a private matter within their organization, and it's not convenient for us to interfere." Lin Wuming ate two hamburgers and had no appetite for the rest.

So, I packed up all the remaining burgers, bought more burgers, making a total of 100, and sent them to "Misaka House" as a reward snack.

After comforting the Misaka sisters who helped find Misaka Mikoto today, Lin Wuming and Misaka Mikoto took the final signal along the way, and the three of them walked towards Family Side together.

Tonight, we are having a family gathering to celebrate the end of the first semester and the start of summer vacation.

At the same time, just when Lin Wuming and the others were returning home, Index also accurately found Kamijou Touma's apartment address.

She left in a hurry that morning and left the hat from her nun's uniform at Kamijou Touma's house.

Because the "Mobile Church" is a magical spiritual equipment, even if it is completely destroyed, there are still obvious traces of magic on it, making it an easy target for those magicians to track.

In order to prevent Kamijou Touma, an "irrelevant person", from being involved in her troubles, Index came back to retrieve her hat.

That morning at Kamijou Touma's house, Index glanced at the calendar and knew his schedule for the day.

So he calculated the time perfectly and appeared at the apartment door when Kamijou Touma was returning home from school - to minimize the time he spent with him, so as to avoid the two magicians who were chasing him from targeting him as well.

Get the hat and leave—that was Index's original plan.

"Index, I've decided. I'll protect you!" Kamijou Touma patted his chest and swore as he faced the girl who had returned. "Just like you said this morning—even if hell awaits us, I will use this right hand to shatter it for you to see!"

"Huh?" Index's eyes widened. "Are you... okay? Why did you suddenly..."

"You said you were being hunted, right?" Kamijou Touma said as he opened the door. "If that's the case, I can't just sit there and watch."

"It's really dangerous. You might die from this." Index said seriously.

"Yes, I understand. I've already made this up." Kamijou Touma nodded. "Okay, come in first. You've been out alone today. I guess you didn't get enough rest, did you?"

After hesitating for a moment, Index finally took a step forward - no matter what, she had to get the hat back first.

Kamijou Touma had no idea of ​​the severity of the situation. "Don't worry. This apartment isn't in the heart of the city, but it's not a particularly remote place either. If we were to encounter danger, it would be easy to escape to safety."

Index suddenly stopped. "I appreciate your kindness, but it's impossible. Kamijou Touma, you have no idea of ​​the dangers involved. If I were to involve someone like you, I would regret it for the rest of my life."

“No, no, no, I’m really prepared,” Kamijou Touma said quickly. “Don’t look at me like this, I’m actually a seasoned warrior.”

"I think the kid is right. Being reckless and unable to face reality is definitely not heroic." A strange voice suddenly came from the other end of the corridor outside the door.

Index was instantly alert and shouted, "Hide!"

As she spoke, the silver-haired nun rushed forward, pushed Kamijou Touma into the apartment, and then pushed the apartment door shut, locking him in the relatively safe room, while she remained on the other side of the door.

"This person has nothing to do with me. He was just talking nonsense just now," Index stood outside the door, facing Stiyl alone, "so we can't involve him." "Is that so?" Stiyl said, "But that's not what the brat said just now."

"So that's nonsense!"

Before Index could finish her words, the apartment door suddenly opened and Kamijou Touma rushed out.

"Hey, what are you doing? You got the wrong person to protect!" Kamijou Touma stood in front of the girl. "Is this the person who's chasing you? He doesn't look like a good person at first glance!"

Stiyl ignored his taunts and said, cigarette in hand, "Since you still have a bit of courage, I'll give you a 'hero' ending."

With that, a huge ball of fire suddenly ignited in front of Stiyl, pounced on Kamijou Touma, and engulfed him...

Index, who was being protected by Kamijou Touma, suddenly let out a cry of pain.

"Don't worry, we'll just teach him a lesson. He won't die." Steele said.

“Of course I can’t die!” Kamijou Touma roared, tearing through the flames and escaping. “Do you think this kind of attack can defeat me?”

"Touma!" Index exclaimed in surprise.

"Don't worry," Kamijou Touma turned around and gave her a thumbs-up, "I told you I'll protect you!"

The first to respond to him was Stiyl's three consecutive fireballs.

Kamijou Touma remained calm and swung his right hand to knock it away.

"Damn it, another one..." Stiyl cursed under his breath when he saw this. Ever since he came to Academy City, he had encountered troublesome people with special abilities.

There were so many strange and bizarre superpowers! To be honest, Stiyl was no longer surprised by them.

But what's even more troublesome is that, strictly speaking, these ability users are not "enemies"; from the perspective of protecting Index, they can even be said to be "comrades."

Therefore, we can't really fight...

Of course, as a magician, Stiyl doesn't mind getting serious about it.

As long as no one is killed, even if a war with a person with special abilities causes a dispute between the two major forces, it is not something he needs to consider.

Stiyl and Kanzaki Kaori came with a mission, and completing the mission was the only thing they needed to consider, everything else was secondary.

If he were to go into direct battle with Kamijou Touma today, Stiyl wouldn't mind being a little more serious and teaching this ignorant guy a lesson.

But the problem is, before encountering Kamijou Touma, they first met Misaka Mikoto and Hayashi Mumei.

The force headed by the "Unknown Director" sent a signal to the two magicians - don't go too far, otherwise he will take action.

After all, this is Lin Wuming's territory.
