A Scientific Urban Detective

——Although it was indeed an accidental injury, and I generously forgave him, saying I wouldn't pursue any responsibility... but those were just polite words! Aren't you Japanese supposed to be good at reading the air? Understand me properly! At least change my roommate and keep this guy away from me!

Lin Wuming was frantically complaining in his heart.

Unfortunately, he was new to this place, and being an orphan, he was all alone; if he didn't keep a low profile at this time, he might get into trouble...

——Wait, I've already transmigrated, and I even have superpowers, I'm not the humble office worker I used to be, why am I being so cautious?

Lin Wuming suddenly realized that he had been the one reading the air all along!

Besides, he was just an eleven or twelve-year-old child, he should just say what he wanted to say, children are always forgiven for their frankness.

"Lin Wuming, do you know that girl from before?" At this moment, Kohachi Mitsu suddenly leaned in close to his ear and asked the same question again.

Lin Wuming could almost feel the hairs on the left side of his body standing on end. His body had a deep impression of how terrifying this girl was.

Even though he knew rationally that this girl wouldn't attack him again... probably?

Resisting the urge to use his telekinetic powers to blast her away, Lin Wuming said, "That girl from before? It's more like I know her name than actually know her. I know her, but she might not know me."

"Is she famous?" Kohachi Mitsu seemed to have entered a normal chat mode, asking casually.

"Shokuhou Misaki, is a mental系 ability user." Lin Wuming thought for a moment, then added, "It is said that she has the qualifications to become a level 5, so she is quite famous."

Shokuhou Misaki's qualifications shouldn't be a secret, right? Lin Wuming spoke while looking back to observe the expressions of the doctor and the guard teacher.

Just in case, he had to give a plausible reason, otherwise there was no way to explain how a test subject locked up in an illegal research institution knew about such a person.

Sure enough, other than Kohachi Mitsu, no one else showed any surprise.

After all, Shokuhou Misaki was the "advisor" that the security force had hired, how could they not know her basic information?

"Level 5... is that very powerful!" Kohachi Mitsu also looked back at the girl who had already walked away, and couldn't help but snort.

"She only has the qualifications, she's probably not a level 5 yet." Lin Wuming quickly added.

"I am level 4," Kohachi Mitsu said suddenly.

"As expected..." Lin Wuming wasn't surprised, after all, she was someone who could easily defeat him, it was normal for her ability level to be higher.

"However," Lin Wuming thought of another thing that bothered him, "Why is Shokuhou Misaki in the hospital?"

She didn't look like she was sick or injured.

Thinking carefully, Shokuhou Misaki was wearing a white gown, the style was similar to a patient's hospital gown.

Could it be... Lin Wuming suddenly had a nonsensical guess in his mind—could this be the base of "Artificial Paradise"?

But then he shook his head and threw away this unreliable guess.

"Lin Wuming, you really care about that girl." Kohachi Mitsu's voice came from behind again.

"I'm just a little concerned, after all, she's a mental系 ability user." Lin Wuming said, "Aren't you also concerned about her?"

"I just find her a little annoying."

"Don't go attacking her!" Lin Wuming said quickly.

"How could I, I'm not someone who would hurt innocent people..." Seeming to feel that saying this in front of Lin Wuming was a bit unconvincing, Kohachi Mitsu quickened her pace, pushing the wheelchair forward quickly, "So, back to the ward or to the restaurant?"

"The restaurant would be good, thank you for your trouble."

Lin Wuming rubbed his forehead with his telekinetic powers, feeling a wave of exhaustion. After being interrupted like this, he seemed to have missed the opportunity to ask for a roommate change...

"Queen... is she calling me that?" Leaving the hospital, sitting in the car, Shokuhou Misaki recalled the moment she met Lin Wuming just now.

To be honest, Lin Wuming's logically consistent self-explanation really opened her eyes.

If she hadn't repeatedly confirmed it, she would have thought Lin Wuming was deliberately performing a monologue for her!

The harvest from this meeting was greater than expected. Moreover, it was credible.

For one thing, at least Lin Wuming mentioned Chairman Aleister and the "Kihara Family", only those who were quite knowledgeable would know of their existence. Compared to them, most of Academy City's illegal laboratories were not worth mentioning, and were even just low-level organizations working for them.

From this alone, it could be determined that Lin Wuming's mind did indeed contain real information.

"So-called transmigrator, could his superpower be time-based?" Shokuhou Misaki also made a reasonable guess.

Otherwise, how could he know that she would join "Artificial Paradise" and eventually become a level 5?

Although Lin Wuming misjudged the time, thinking that she had not yet entered "Artificial Paradise", it was precisely because of this deviation that it further proved that Lin Wuming possessed "correct" information.

In the second half of the meeting, Lin Wuming tried to get away with it by "playing dumb", but it didn't cause the slightest trouble to "Mental Out".

On the contrary, Shokuhou Misaki saw right through him without any resistance...

If it weren't for the limitations of level 4 "Mental Out", such as "reading speed", she would have read the entire "A Certain Magical Index", "A Certain Scientific Railgun" and "Astral Buddy" series just now.

In this fleeting glance, Shokuhou Misaki only had time to peek at what Lin Wuming was thinking about.

But even with just this, it was enough to surprise her and give her something to digest for a while.

However, due to the preconceived first impression, Lin Wuming's image of having "delusions" lingered in Shokuhou Misaki's mind.

Therefore, she couldn't completely believe the information she obtained from Lin Wuming's memory.

"First of all, according to the information he provided, Academy City will have seven level 5s in two years, and my 'Mental Out' will be ranked fifth..." Shokuhou Misaki was a little dissatisfied with this ranking.

Or rather, she was dissatisfied with the "Railgun" ranked third.

She didn't know why, but in Lin Wuming's memory information, the proportion of the other female level 5, "Railgun" Misaka Mikoto, was particularly large.

"A year later, both I and that girl named Misaka Mikoto will enter Tokiwadai Middle School, one of the five prestigious schools. It seems that taking this as an opportunity, the two of us are like we're tied together, and we're always being compared..." Shokuhou Misaki pinched her chin and recalled the memory information she had just seen.

Of course, this statement was actually embellished by Shokuhou Misaki herself.

In fact, in Lin Wuming's memory information, "Shokuhou Misaki" was instead an appendage of "Misaka Mikoto"; every time Misaka Mikoto was mentioned, people would "incidentally" remember that there was another level 5 queen in Tokiwadai Middle School, of course, her presence wasn't very high.

"It's as if that Misaka Mikoto is the heroine... she's clearly just a girl who randomly discharges electricity and flicks coins!" Shokuhou Misaki judged that this memory information was definitely inaccurate.

"Moreover..." She looked down, flat as a board, she could directly see her abdomen.

Comparing it with the image of herself after she grew up in Lin Wuming's memory...

"How could a normal human have such a growth rate, it's completely his delusion as a boy!" Shokuhou Misaki couldn't help but complain.
