A Scientific Urban Detective

#277 - Multiple parties gather

A few minutes ago, Huangquanchuan Aiho, who was still searching for the SKILL OUT trio on the street, suddenly caught a glimpse of a blond, blue-eyed figure flashing past the edge of her vision.

Due to her professional instincts, Huangquanchuan Aiho was very good at recognizing people, so she immediately identified the figure as Bifeng Toumi.

Huangquanchuan Aiho knew what Lin Wuming and Bifeng Toumi were doing, but she didn't know what they were specifically going to do.

Because Huangquanchuan Aiho had only received the news from headquarters less than half an hour ago, saying that the Disciplinary Committee had important information about the "underground arena" and needed the support of the security forces in a timely manner.

Huangquanchuan Aiho almost immediately thought of Lin Wuming and called him, but as expected, he didn't answer.

Then she quickly tried to contact Bifeng Toumi, but then she saw Bifeng Toumi's figure flashing past.

Huangquanchuan Aiho was a little concerned, so she put away her phone and quietly followed to find out what was going on.

Unexpectedly, Bifeng Toumi's movements were quite agile, and Huangquanchuan Aiho lost track of her target.

So, Huangquanchuan Aiho took out her phone again, but after thinking about it, she still didn't call Bifeng Toumi directly, but instead went to Tiezhuang Zhui Li and asked her to help find out more detailed information.

After spending some time together, Huangquanchuan Aiho also knew that the two children at home were very individualistic and opinionated; especially Bifeng Toumi, who also had some paranoia and irritability. If she rashly tried to stop them from doing something, it might backfire.

Moreover, apart from their somewhat extreme behavior and their tendency to put themselves in danger, Lin Wuming and Bifeng Toumi were doing commendable things to some extent, and as a security teacher, she couldn't simply pour cold water on them.

"Anyway, even if I call Bifeng, she won't tell me the truth, and she might even startle her and make her more careful, right?" Huangquanchuan Aiho muttered softly and shook her head helplessly, "Talented children are also troublesome."

Of course, even if she called now, Bifeng Toumi probably wouldn't be able to answer, because she was also on the phone, and the line was busy...

"Hello, is this Juanqi Zui Ai? I am Bifeng Toumi."

Compared to Huangquanchuan Aiho's deep thoughts, Bifeng Toumi didn't think so much. After discovering someone she knew on the street, she decisively took out her phone...

According to the plan she had discussed with Lin Wuming, after separating from him in the morning, Bifeng Toumi went to the Disciplinary Committee headquarters to report the latest information and their action plan.

After that, she rushed here non-stop, disguised herself as an ordinary passerby, and began to lie in wait, waiting for Lin Wuming to send a signal.

The Disciplinary Committee also sent people, like Bifeng Toumi, to remove their armbands, become ordinary students and citizens, and spread around the indoor theater.

According to the chairman's order, these people were all under the command of Bifeng Toumi—because only she could contact Lin Wuming, who had infiltrated the underground arena.

Bifeng Toumi didn't care about this "on-site commander" status. She was used to being alone and was good at solo combat.

She also didn't think she had the talent to command others like Lin Wuming.

Therefore, Bifeng Toumi simply ordered the Disciplinary Committee members who were cooperating with her to act as naturally as possible and act according to circumstances.

This was not difficult for the Disciplinary Committee members who were originally students—they just had to act naturally.

Even Bifeng Toumi couldn't distinguish between ordinary citizens and Disciplinary Committee members among the pedestrians on the street.

For the same reason, Bifeng Toumi herself was impeccably disguised and did not attract anyone's attention.

It was just that she was constantly walking around the street because she was anxious, which might make people a little concerned if seen by someone with ulterior motives.

During Bifeng Toumi's extensive "patrol," she also saw an acquaintance—Juanqi Zui Ai, whom she had just met yesterday.

Beside Juanqi Zui Ai were several unfamiliar girls, from whom Bifeng Toumi inexplicably felt a threat.

This made Bifeng Toumi immediately guess that they were probably members of "Item"—the dark side organization that Juanqi Zui Ai had joined.

—The most fierce-looking girl was probably the level 5 "Atom Smasher" Maiye Shenli.

So, Bifeng Toumi was a little concerned, why would a dark side organization with a level 5 member appear in this place at this time?

Then she easily thought of what she was doing—it must also be related to the "underground arena"!

This was Bifeng Toumi's intuitive judgment, and she also believed in her intuition.

Moreover, not to mention that yesterday their "Item" also helped capture Meituo Gaoyu, so it was not surprising to continue investigating the case related to the "underground arena".

Compared to those Disciplinary Committee members who had never seen blood, Bifeng Toumi believed that people from the dark side organization were more trustworthy—at least, when it came to fighting.

Not to mention that there was also Juanqi Zui Ai, an acquaintance, in "Item".

So, Bifeng Toumi wanted to go over and join them.

But she found that the "Item" members just flashed past in the crowd and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

After searching in vain, Bifeng Toumi gave up this useless effort and simply took out her phone...

"Eh? Bifeng-san!" Juanqi Zui Ai was also very surprised to receive the call. "Chao-good afternoon, what can I do for you..."

"Ah, sorry, it's someone I know." Noticing the stern look Maiye Shenli was giving her, Juanqi Zui Ai quickly explained, "It's from yesterday..."

"I know," Maiye Shenli said impatiently, "Business is important, get rid of her quickly!"

"..." Juanqi Zui Ai was silent for a moment, then said softly into the phone, "Chao-sorry, you heard just now, we can't act together."

Fortunately, Bifeng Toumi was only thinking of joining forces because of her acquaintance with Juanqi Zui Ai. She herself didn't really care about it.

So she wasn't angry after being rejected, which made Juanqi Zui Ai feel much relieved.

"Speaking of which, do we really have to walk around outside like idiots for a few hours before we can enter that place?" Fulanda couldn't help but complain, "The destination is not far away..."

"There's no way," Juanqi Zui Ai said, putting away her phone, "This is the chao-prescribed route. According to that man's explanation, if we don't follow the prescribed method, we will chao-alert the enemy and let the prey escape."

"Be patient, Fulanda!" Maiye Shenli said calmly.

But her companions who were familiar with her knew that their leader was already very impatient.

Taking a deep breath, Maiye Shenli continued: "Be patient... We won't let any of them escape!"

The three girls behind her looked at each other, and had already begun to mourn for the targets of this mission in their hearts.

Even to their own people, the "Atom Smasher," who was accumulating anger and was always on the verge of going berserk, was a terrifying existence.

"Longhu, Longhu, quickly think of a way!" Fulanda said softly.

At this time, only Longhu Liho, who had the best relationship with Maiye Shenli, could possibly appease her.

Shaking her head helplessly, Longhu Liho slowly walked forward.

"Maiye, we've circled back to the parking place." Longhu Liho looked at the business car parked across the road, "Why don't we get in the car and rest for a while?"

"Are you tired?" Maiye Shenli frowned.

"Don't worry, I feel fine." Longhu Liho said, "It's just that I don't think it's necessary for everyone to participate in this time-wasting process. Anyway, as long as someone among us can enter the arena."

"That makes sense." Maiye Shenli nodded, "However, there are suspected powerful espers among the enemies. I'm not comfortable with just you guys going in."

According to the clues they had, especially the "rant" released by Meituo Gaoyu after being defeated—saying that the leader of the organizers, Nadeshiko Koji Kaede, was an esper who was "much more powerful" than Maiye Shenli.

Then there was reason to suspect that the other party might also be level 5!

After all, two new level 5s had been added recently, so it wouldn't be surprising if there was one more.

The other three members of "Item" also thought of this, so they didn't mention letting Maiye Shenli go back to rest.

In Academy City, probably not many people knew how powerful level 5s were more than them.

If possible, they would definitely not want to be enemies with another level 5.

Therefore, they had to continue to move forward according to the prescribed route...
