A Scientific Urban Detective

"Wulili, let's not talk about this for now," Sha Danshan changed the subject. "What about the others? The number of people attending the event today shouldn't be too many, right? After all, it's troublesome, and it's so early… I'm really sorry for issuing such an unreasonable order due to my selfishness…"

"No, that's not the case!" Wulili shook her head vigorously. "Everyone is here!"

As she spoke, a group of girls in Tokiwadai Middle School uniforms walked over from the other side of the street.

Early in the morning, the entire Sha faction mobilized and came to this place outside the academy city.

All to respond to an order from Sha Danshan, the leader of the faction.

Seeing this scene, Sha Danshan was also very surprised, and a look of emotion immediately appeared on her face.

"Everyone… actually came…"

"After all, even you, Sha-sama, have personally come, so what reason do we have to refuse?" Wulili said.

This was the first time that the Sha faction had such a large-scale collective activity outside the school so early, and the theme was still charitable public welfare activities.

Because of yesterday's march and demonstration, and the sudden large-scale riot in the evening, many criminals took the opportunity to do evil, smashing, looting, and setting fires everywhere.

Although, on the whole, the damage caused to the city was not too serious, the number of shops and urban public facilities affected and damaged was still considerable.

The theme of this Sha faction activity was to raise donations to repair and rebuild these damaged buildings and facilities.

The Sha faction could take this opportunity to further increase their influence in order to counter the Shiokishi faction, which had been gaining momentum recently—at least that was the reason Sha Danshan gave.

Next, a group of young ladies from the Sha faction surveyed the damage to the streets along the way, assessing the funds and other building materials and equipment that needed to be mobilized.

Having done a lot of public welfare and charity work, they had gained some experience.

During the journey, they unexpectedly encountered the teams of "prison guards".

Because of the previous "intruder" and the inexplicably erupted prison break commotion, the juvenile reformatory had been in chaos for a while, but the prisoner still managed to escape.

The prison guards, unwilling to give up, chased after him, determined to catch the intruder.

Of course, seeing a group of Tokiwadai Middle School students walking towards them, although they were wondering why they were here, the prison guards were unwilling to provoke these young ladies, and silently changed direction, avoiding them.

Sha Danshan narrowed her eyes and smiled.

…

After completing the survey, the Sha faction announced their donation activity through pre-arranged reporters, and then returned to the academy city in a grand manner.

Today was a normal school day, and they were just getting up early to participate in faction activities, which did not mean they could skip class.

At the same time, Lin Wuming also yawned and drove his wheelchair to school.

As a student, Lin Wuming, having chosen to come to school, also cared about his attendance rate and was reluctant to ask for leave or skip class easily.

Last night… no, it should be said this morning, because he helped the security forces deal with the march and demonstration, as well as the subsequent large-scale riot, Lin Wuming worked overtime until after one o'clock in the morning before going home to rest.

Now he had to get up early to go to school, which was indeed a bit tiring.

Of course, this level of fatigue was nothing; with Lin Wuming's current energy and physical strength, he could stay up for two or three days without sleep without any problems.

It was just that the classroom environment was unexpectedly suitable for sleep.

It was also because Lin Wuming had already mastered the course content that he felt bored, which in turn led to a sleepy feeling…

Lin Wuming persevered with great willpower, not allowing himself to fall asleep.

Just ten minutes before the end of class, Lin Wuming, who was struggling to stay awake and counting down six hundred seconds, suddenly perked up.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw two security teachers in dark blue uniforms passing by in the corridor outside the classroom.

—Something's up!

Lin Wuming thought instinctively.

Sure enough, at the first moment after class, the security teachers waiting outside the classroom door walked directly to Lin Wuming.

They were unfamiliar faces; Lin Wuming did not recognize these two security guards.

However, their identities and credentials were not a problem, so Lin Wuming invited them to the Disciplinary Committee's activity room.

After there were no irrelevant people to interfere, the security teacher finally stated the purpose of their visit.

"Wuming-san, we're just doing a little investigation," one of the security teachers said, while the other took out his phone and turned on the recording mode. "Please explain where you were and what you were doing between 2:00 AM and 6:00 AM today."

"Two o'clock in the morning… of course I was sleeping at home!" Lin Wuming said. "I live in Family Side; you can retrieve the surveillance records there."

"Understood." The security teacher who asked the question nodded, then signaled his partner to end the recording before continuing, "Don't mind, Wuming-san; this inquiry is just a formality, a necessary procedure. We are also residents of Family Side, so of course we wouldn't suspect you."

Lin Wuming said "Oh"; not being good at recognizing people, it was impossible for him to remember the appearance of every resident in Family Side.

Moreover, he had gone to the security forces to cooperate with investigations and make statements many times, so he was already familiar with this procedure.

"Did something happen?" Lin Wuming asked. "And is it related to me?"

After hesitating for a moment, the two security teachers exchanged glances and decided not to hide anything.

Anyway, with Lin Wuming's identity and ability, it was meaningless to hide it from him; he would definitely find a way to get the information.

Moreover, after telling Lin Wuming, he might be able to help solve the case and become a rare assistant.

"Last night… around 2:00 AM today, someone broke into the juvenile reformatory," the security teacher introduced. "And he turned off all the AIM diffusion field interference devices, directly leading to the subsequent large-scale prison break."

Lin Wuming immediately said, "Because last night's commotion sent many people into the juvenile reformatory, maybe they took the opportunity to sneak in? Did that guy want to rob the prison? That would be a good opportunity."

"However, the juvenile reformatory discovered it in time, and the intruder's purpose was not achieved," the security teacher said. "After checking, no personnel escaped; nor were any items or materials lost. Apart from the gate and guard robots destroyed by the intruder, there were no other losses. But the intruder didn't leave any useful clues either, so it's difficult."

"Okay, I roughly understand the situation." Lin Wuming spread his hands and asked, "But the question is, why would you suspect me?"

After a pause, Lin Wuming continued, "Could it be… that the juvenile reformatory is also suspected of participating in illegal experimental projects?"
