A Scientific Urban Detective

#503 - Assassination Restart

Using the parade incident to buy low, Shokuhou Misaki took control of more than a dozen different companies and factories in one go.

Of course, "making money" was actually secondary, and Shokuhou Misaki would have done it even if she couldn't profit; because the companies she acquired were mainly factories producing daily necessities.

After all, their fundamental goal was to take care of the ten thousand Misaka sisters. Rather than money, it was more convenient to directly provide daily necessities.

Among them, the most important was a clothing factory specializing in the production of uniforms—Tokiwadai Middle School's uniforms were produced by this company.

It should be known that Tokiwadai Middle School's student uniforms, while taking into account aesthetics and comfort, also have considerable protective functions.

Bulletproof and stab-proof, the protective performance even exceeds many dedicated bulletproof vests!

Such black technology can only exist within Academy City.

This not only solved the clothing problem for the Misaka sisters, but also allowed them to obtain a steady stream of orders from Tokiwadai Middle School. Even if it couldn't generate profit, it could at least earn back the clothing expenses for the Misaka sisters.

In order to obtain this factory and become the exclusive uniform supplier for the School Garden, Shokuhou Misaki even borrowed Lin Wuming's newly acquired title of "Nameless Director."

Lin Wuming didn't say much after learning about her actions of directly monetizing her influence.

Compared to himself, Lin Wuming had more faith in Shokuhou Misaki's abilities in these matters. Since she could maximize profits, he would leave it to her to handle.

After all, everything was prioritized to support the Misaka sisters—this was the consensus between Lin Wuming, Shokuhou Misaki, and Misaka Mikoto.

"As expected of Tokiwadai Middle School," the guard teacher driving in the front row couldn't help but sigh after hearing their conversation, "Are extracurricular activities so rich and exciting?"

Starting a company, engaging in business warfare, acquiring other enterprises... such social practice activities would probably never be seen in other schools, right?

—Actually, it's not common in Tokiwadai Middle School either.

Lin Wuming thought to himself, Shokuhou Misaki was completely acting on her own and might even be violating school rules.

However, Shokuhou Misaki didn't need to pay particular attention to school rules.

Not to mention, Shokuhou Misaki now had a "Nameless Director" as a backer. Under the guise of borrowed power, as long as she didn't do anything too outrageous, no one would hinder her.

The guard teacher clicked his tongue in amazement, repeatedly sighing that "the younger generation is to be feared."

Looking at the two people sitting in the back seat through the rearview mirror—Shokuhou Misaki's activities were certainly exciting, but this side was no less impressive.

"Nameless Director" or something, even if it was just a rumor, the appearance of such a rumor was already outrageous!

"That's right!" Speaking of this, the guard suddenly thought of something, "Lin Wuming, there's something I need to tell you."

"Please speak, teacher."

"Recently, you need to pay more attention to your safety." The guard teacher said seriously, "Although you live in Family Side, and we have guards specifically picking you up and dropping you off when you go out to participate in activities, there shouldn't be any problems, but at other times and occasions, you need to be vigilant."

Because someone wants to assassinate Lin Wuming.

"Huh? Someone wants to assassinate me again?" Lin Wuming was a little surprised, "Is it a remnant of Director Scherbing?"

"Again someone..." The guard teacher was speechless, but remembering Lin Wuming's past experiences and achievements, he was relieved, "Okay, in your case, you are indeed experienced. But in any case, you still need to be more careful."

People fear fame, especially since Lin Wuming's status has ushered in a wave of soaring, having effectively entered a completely new class, which has given him many "enemies" for no reason.

Therefore, it's not surprising to be targeted and encounter assassination.

In fact, during these days' activities, the guards have secretly thwarted many attacks against Lin Wuming.

Because the attackers were not very strong and couldn't even get close to Lin Wuming, they were once thought to be ordinary vandals who wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble and create riots at the speech site.

It wasn't until today, when they finally had time to conduct a detailed investigation of these criminals, that they discovered that their real purpose was actually "assassinating Lin Wuming"!

"Assassins? Don't worry." Hahou Yomitsu said, "As long as they dare to approach..."

The girl hummed and sneered while twirling her hair.

"...Hehe," remembering the fierce achievements of these young boys and girls behind him, the guard teacher couldn't help but chuckle twice, "In short, you usually pay more attention to it."

As he was talking, she suddenly saw a pile of debris blocking the road ahead and quickly stepped on the brakes.

"Damn it, is it those parade guys again?" The guard teacher couldn't help but curse, "It's been so many days, and they're still putting this kind of thing on the road. They should all be arrested!"

The guard teacher honked the horn vigorously and soon saw a few young people in their twenties running over to move the debris on the road.

"Yomitsu..." Lin Wuming suddenly patted the girl's hand beside him.

"Yeah." Hahou Yomitsu had already leaned to the window, and the bandage in her hand turned into a sharp sword.

The young people on the roadside who were trying to get close to the vehicle they were riding in under the guise of clearing roadblocks were hit almost simultaneously.

Hahou Yomitsu's sword was as fast as lightning. With just one sword in her hand, she could "simultaneously" attack the other four.

"...Don't kill them..." Lin Wuming's words were ultimately a step too late.

Just now, he and Hahou Yomitsu had sensed the abnormality of the four people outside almost simultaneously—Hahou Yomitsu had a natural intuition, and Lin Wuming was "cured after a long illness," being very sensitive to assassination attempts against himself.

But in the end, Hahou Yomitsu was a step faster; and this girl had always acted faster than she thought, launching an attack the moment she discovered the enemy, striking first!

"Don't worry, I showed mercy." Hahou Yomitsu said somewhat proudly, "I don't need Wuming to emphasize and remind me anymore."

Sure enough, the four people outside had only lost their ability to move. Although they were seriously injured, they were at least still alive.

It wasn't until this time that the guard teacher in front realized what had happened.

"You two... Hahou!"

"Don't worry, teacher." Lin Wuming said, "They are probably assassins. You can search them later. They should be carrying weapons."

"Huh? Is... is that so?" The guard teacher's face was a little ugly.

Although she was also a resident of Family Side and was considered a neighbor with Lin Wuming and Hahou Yomitsu, she had only greeted them when she met them in the elevator before, so this was the first time she had seen such a scene...

"Sure enough, seeing it with your own eyes is completely different from hearing it from others." The guard teacher muttered.

Without saying a word... no, even without making eye contact, this pair of young boys and girls brazenly attacked strangers, which really gave her a lot of shock.
