A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 600 Bystanders

——Well done, Misaka Mikoto!

Seeing that Kamijou Touma finally found an idea, Lin Wuming said goodbye and left with satisfaction.

The rest can be left to Kamijou Touma to figure out on his own.

Just as planned before, Lin Wuming did not want to intervene too much in the plot of the magic side of the original work.

At most, he would observe from the shadows, and help Kamijou Touma when necessary, to prevent him from accidentally dying prematurely...

After all, the main storyline has already begun, and the development of the "savior" is imminent.

"Senior Wuming, do we really not need to worry about them?" On the way home, Misaka Mikoto couldn't help but ask.

And because she didn't see the incident resolved satisfactorily, Misaka Mikoto still felt very concerned.

"That's all," Lin Wuming said. "This is an internal matter among the mages. Kamijou Touma was chosen by them. As for us... we are all high-level espers in Academy City, so it's best if we don't get too close to the mages."

"Huh? This really doesn't seem like Wuming-senpai's style." Misaka Mikoto said, "I thought Wuming-senpai would save people to the end."

In Misaka Mikoto's opinion, what the British Puritans did to Index could be considered "illegal human experimentation" no matter how you look at it, right?
"The real world is very complicated, Misaka-san." Lin Wuming said, but his eyes met Misaka Mikoto's eyes full of expectation and trust.

"But don't worry, I'll be patrolling around here these few days. If there's any emergency, I'll rush over as soon as possible."

"I'll go with you too!" Misaka Mikoto's eyes lit up and she said immediately.

——Senior Wuming, just pamper her...

Shokuhou Misaki silently rolled her eyes.

—Well, it's not really a pampering, I was just planning to observe from the shadows. If necessary, I really wanted to save that unfortunate Kamijou Touma, at least to prevent him from losing his memory again.

Originally, some of Kamijou Touma's experience points were taken up by Lin Wuming. If he were to delete his account and start over... I'm afraid he really won't be able to catch up with the Third World War in a few months!

By the way, Lin Wuming also wanted to save the innocent satellite "Vega 1" in the sky and the "Tree Diagram Designer" on it.

Technology itself is innocent. You have to know that the "Tree Designer" is the most powerful supercomputer in Academy City; it can even accurately predict the weather within Academy City - it can be called the "Laplace's Demon" in a specific area.

Such a powerful computer was inexplicably killed by a "stray bullet" at the very beginning of the game. It was really unfair that it died.

Therefore, Lin Wuming planned to keep an eye on the situation in the safe house, and intervene in time when the "Dragon King's Sigh" appeared to prevent it from hitting the "Vega No. 1" in the sky.

To this end, after returning home, Lin Wuming specifically retrieved the orbit of the "Vega-1" satellite and calculated its relative position to the safe house based on the map.

At that time, all we need to do is destroy Index's foothold to indirectly control the shooting trajectory of "Dragon King's Sigh".

It may be difficult to make it hit a target accurately, but it is much easier to make it avoid a specific target.

In the next few days, Lin Wuming kept in touch with Kamijou Touma every day to get the latest information about Index.

Perhaps because it was not the last moment yet, the "collar" on Index had not been activated, so Kamijou Touma could not find a magic circle to destroy it for a while, and could only stay by Index's side as much as possible and continue to wait.

By the way, he also continued to try to find the traces of magic of the culprit. During this period, in order not to miss any suspicious traces of magic, Kamijou Touma had been punished by Index many times for crimes such as "being a hooligan", and his head was covered with bite marks every day.

Of course, there was no need to tell Lin Wuming these details over the phone... "It looks like today is another peaceful day." Misaka Mikoto stood in the alley and looked in the direction of the safe house.

There were a lot of bad boys lying on the ground at her feet, and some of them had their hands and feet twitching from time to time to show what kind of attack had knocked them down.

"You really never get tired of this," Lin Wuming shook his head helplessly after seeing this scene, "Be careful or someone will complain again."

Lin Wuming was not obsessed with the functional differences between ordinary citizens and discipline committee members. As long as Misaka Mikoto was happy, it was fine. Anyway, she was controlling the strength of her attack very well. Those who were electrocuted would not even have any sequelae, but would just suffer some pain.

"Don't blame me for picking a fight!" Misaka Mikoto quickly explained, "It's all their fault!"

She pointed at the delinquent boys at her feet and said, "A classmate came to me today and complained that she was molested by some delinquent boys while out playing... It was this group of people!"

"Are your classmates... okay?" Lin Wuming asked.

Although the young ladies of Tokiwadai Middle School are all high-level esper users above level 3, they are inexperienced in the ways of the world and therefore appear particularly naive and slow in some aspects, making them easily suffer losses.

This is especially true for the freshmen who entered this year. Because factional struggles have almost ceased to exist, this year's freshmen have not even been trained in the most basic "fighting spirit."

"Don't worry, those young ladies are just innocent, not stupid," Misaka Mikoto said. "If they encounter danger, they can always escape. Besides, these little hooligans only dare to do evil in dark corners like this, and they won't dare to chase them out."

Misaka Mikoto had been planning to "challenge" the bad boys, and this time she had a legitimate reason, so it was even more impossible for her to let them go.

Naturally, Lin Wuming would not have any good feelings towards the bad boys - or the group of armed disabled people.

It is undeniable that there are special cases like "Big Spider" among them, but generally speaking, they have all become "thugs" and it is obvious that they cannot be good people.

Therefore, Lin Wuming only symbolically reminded Misaka Mikoto and never really stopped her behavior.

"It's getting late, and it looks like today will be quiet." Lin Wuming checked his phone, then looked in the direction of the safe house. "Where are you planning to stay today?"

Misaka Mikoto said with a look of regret: "Go back to the dormitory. It seems that I have been doing too much recently and have made the dormitory supervisor unhappy."

It turns out that the warden who rules the entire dormitory building actually knows everything, but sometimes he just cooperates and turns a blind eye.

But if you go too far, like not coming home for several days in a row, you might really offend the dorm supervisor.

"And I do feel a little guilty about always bothering Kuroko." Misaka Mikoto said, scratching her head.

"You will also bring food back for her, so we're even." Lin Wuming said with a smile.

During the days since the start of summer vacation, although she didn't stay at Family Side every day, Misaka Mikoto had dinner at Yomigawa Aiho's house every day.

In order to express her gratitude to Shirai Kuroko, Misaka Mikoto specifically asked Lin Wuming to prepare an extra dinner for one person and bring it to Shirai Kuroko when she returned to the dormitory.

"Because Kuroko said that he was very interested in Wuming-senpai's cooking." Misaka Mikoto said, "This kind of thing is just a small favor for me. The one who should be thanked is Wuming-senpai, it has nothing to do with me."
