A Scientific Urban Detective

Strictly speaking, the reason why Lin Wuming and Torafune Sukimitsu got involved in the "Underground Arena" case was largely due to Kurozuma Mutsuru... or rather, his gang, "Great Spider."

Because one of the "Great Spider" members suddenly disappeared and was suspected of being involved in the "Underground Arena", Kurozuma Mutsuru and Hezuyatsugi Tsuguo asked Kiyama Harumi for help, hoping to obtain "official information" support from Judgment.

During the investigation, Kiyama Harumi sought help from Lin Wuming and Torafune Sukimitsu...

Then came the "100 Million Yen Cash Heist" and the "Serial Bomber Case", which eventually led the clues to the "Underground Arena."

And last night, key clues related to the "Underground Arena" converged on Lin Wuming.

Now, Lin Wuming is only one step away from solving the case.

Seeing Lin Wuming's confident appearance, Kurozuma Mutsuru immediately showed a relieved smile.

"It seems I found the right person." Kurozuma Mutsuru said, "That's right, I'm investigating the 'Underground Arena', but after all, I'm just a small-time thug who doesn't do serious business, and the information I can grasp is very limited."

"Kiyama-san didn't..."

"Probably worried that we would be impulsive and take risks, she seems to have decided to investigate on her own." Kurozuma Mutsuru said.

"I see..." Lin Wuming nodded, calculating in his mind.

"Don't think about it, Lin Wuming-kun," Kurozuma Mutsuru said, "This is our 'Great Spider' business, how can we let an outsider who has left the organization take risks for us?"

"It's not like an outsider. To be precise, this is also our Judgment's duty." Lin Wuming said.

"Okay, let me put it another way." Kurozuma Mutsuru said again, "Although I'm a Level 0, if I really get into a fight, I can say without exaggeration that a Level 3 esper like Kiyama isn't my opponent. For cases like this that may require combat, I'm more suitable than that guy Kiyama, right?"

Thinking for a moment, realizing that the boy in the wheelchair in front of him was also a Level 3, Kurozuma Mutsuru quickly added: "What I mean is, I can fight better than some Level 3s, of course, not including strong people like Lin Wuming-kun."

"Okay, okay, what do you want to know?" Lin Wuming asked.

The other party had no ill intentions, and he was right, he did have considerable strength, so Lin Wuming had no reason to refuse him.

"As far as I know, last night, you obtained information about the time and location of the new season of the 'Underground Arena'." Kurozuma Mutsuru said.

"Your news is really well-informed." Lin Wuming exclaimed.

"Actually, Kiyama told me this, but that's all." Kurozuma Mutsuru smiled bitterly, "Unfortunately, no matter how much we pressed her, she wouldn't tell us more detailed information."

"So you thought of coming to me?"

"Yes, you and Kiyama are members of the same team, I believe you must also know this information."

"I see..." Lin Wuming nodded thoughtfully again.

"Ahem," seeing Lin Wuming still hesitating, Kurozuma Mutsuru took out his trump card, "We can exchange information, in fact, my investigation has also yielded some results."

"Exchange information? Is it necessary?" Lin Wuming asked somewhat impolitely.

Not only did he have information from the Chairman, but Lin Wuming also had "exclusive news" provided by Misaki Shokuhou. Now he had everything: time, location, and people.

Therefore, Lin Wuming didn't think Kurozuma Mutsuru's so-called "information exchange" was of much value.

Kurozuma Mutsuru showed a confident expression and explained, "Lin Wuming-kun, you don't think that you can enter the 'Underground Arena' just by knowing the specific location, do you?"

"Isn't that so?" Lin Wuming asked, but at this time he already vaguely felt that something was wrong.

"Of course it's not that simple." Kurozuma Mutsuru lowered his voice and explained in detail, "According to the information I've gathered, the 'Underground Arena' implements a membership recommendation system. Not only do members of the secret website need recommendations from regular customers, but offline on-site viewing also requires the guidance of regular customers."

The location of the Underground Arena is not the only difficulty—anyone can see the time and location information of the competition as long as they can log in to the secret website.

But the specific way to enter is another matter, and these will not be displayed on the website.

In addition to the location, specific methods, routes, passwords... these are all "tests" that must be experienced for offline on-site viewing.

Usually, newcomers can only truly enter the arena with the guidance of regular customers.

As for those who do not enter in this special way, they will trigger an alarm at the first time and attract the attention of the organizers.

And next, whether to send someone to eliminate the threat or stop the game and transfer immediately depends on the organizer's decision.

It can attack and defend, and can be said to be naturally invincible.

After listening to Kurozuma Mutsuru's explanation, Lin Wuming and Torafune Sukimitsu were dubious, but this kind of thing is always better to believe than not to believe.

It's always better to be careful and prepared beforehand than to be caught off guard when a sudden situation really occurs.

"Coincidentally, I happen to have a way to enter," Kurozuma Mutsuru said, "The only problem is, I don't know the specific location. If I have to check each place one by one, I'm afraid it will be too late."

"What a coincidence?" Torafune Sukimitsu, who had been silent all along, suddenly said.

"It's a bit of a coincidence indeed." Lin Wuming also nodded.

One side knows the detailed address, and the other side knows the way to enter, like two puzzle pieces that can just be put together to form a whole.

"Actually, it's not a coincidence," Kurozuma Mutsuru coughed awkwardly, "Originally, we should have been able to obtain complete information, but... the guy who was supposed to take us in suddenly disappeared, so..."

Next, according to Kurozuma Mutsuru's explanation, Lin Wuming and Torafune Sukimitsu learned the reason for this.

Kurozuma Mutsuru of "Great Spider" is quite famous among delinquent youths, or rather, armed Level 0 groups. He knows many people and has many friends, so he has a wide network of contacts.

Since he is determined to investigate, he can dig up a lot of information even about the "Underground Arena".

In this way, through his network, Kurozuma Mutsuru really found a VIP member of the "Underground Arena".

However, the interaction between the two sides was not pleasant when they came to negotiate...

Kurozuma Mutsuru vaguely glossed over the specific process of the negotiation, only knowing that the end result was that the president of a medium-sized studio disappeared overnight, and the clue was cut off.

"But the members under him know the specific method and rules for entering—because the steps are so complicated, the whole process has not changed." Kurozuma Mutsuru said, "Of course, only regular customers can master this whole process. And that boss has a bad memory, so he brought a deputy and let the second-in-command remember the entry rules—every game, he will take people to watch it live!"

In other words, their boss knows that he has a membership to the secret website and can see the location and time information of the new season; but because of his bad memory or laziness, the specific way to enter is remembered by his second-in-command...

According to Kurozuma Mutsuru's meaning, he can find the second-in-command, but it's too late to find the missing boss.

"Can you still bring your subordinates to watch the game?" Lin Wuming asked in surprise, "What kind of identity is the person you found?"

"In short, he's a loan shark," Kurozuma Mutsuru said, "and also one of the 'agents' who sends contestants to the Underground Arena."
