A Scientific Urban Detective
#51 - The last escape
Lin Wuming and the others were currently on the first basement level. Unlike the secret space on the lower levels, this first basement level was just a disguise, no different from an ordinary basement.
Returning to the surface from here didn't require taking the limited-capacity elevator; they could also use the stairs directly.
Kinuhata Saiai remembered Lin Wuming's instructions, to have everyone act collectively, so they wouldn't use the elevator if they didn't have to. Everyone lined up and took the stairs, a continuous stream, rushing out in one go!
Because of this, the children who came up first were waiting here for the others.
Victory was in sight, freedom was at hand, and both Goryou Ringo and Nagare Kaori had been rescued. Good news kept coming, and the children were emotionally charged, unable to contain their feelings. The atmosphere was about to explode.
Lin Wuming used his telekinesis to lift the wheelchair, and his whole body flew into the air.
"Everyone, quiet down and listen to me!" Lin Wuming's voice wasn't loud, but using his telekinetic ability to create a megaphone, he still managed to transmit his voice clearly to everyone's ears.
"Everyone, stay calm. We haven't really escaped danger yet!" Lin Wuming said. "Victory is just around the corner. Let's make one last effort and rush out in one breath!"
At Lin Wuming's urging, the children finally calmed down and actively cleared an area near the elevator entrance to allow the last batch of members to come up and join them.
"Remember what I said?" Lin Wuming asked again.
"Yes! Everyone acts collectively, and after escaping, run to a crowded place for help, but only trust the adults in teal uniforms," Kinuhata Saiai replied as the representative to Lin Wuming's question.
"Very good," Lin Wuming nodded in satisfaction. As expected of someone who had awakened to become a Level 3, she was indeed more reliable than other people her age. "There's one more thing. Nagare Kaori urgently needs treatment. Take her to a doctor as soon as you get up there. I'm counting on you for this."
As he spoke, Lin Wuming handed her his phone: "Do you know how to use it?"
"Yes," Kinuhata Saiai nodded. "I've seen adults use it."
Lin Wuming said, "I've already called an ambulance, but if you don't see a doctor for a while, keep calling. The only number in the contact list is Teacher Yomikawa. She's someone you can trust. If you have any difficulties or problems, just look for her."
"Little Lin, aren't you coming with us?" Kinuhata Saiai asked.
Lin Wuming shook his head: "I have other things to do. I'll be out a little later. But don't be afraid, I'm right behind you. If you encounter danger, I will definitely save you!"
"Like a hero…" Komori Tooru had arrived here with the last few children, seeing Lin Wuming speaking and comforting people in mid-air. "Not bad."
She came to Kinuhata Saiai's side, grabbed Lin Wuming's phone, and quickly operated it a few times.
Then she returned the phone: "My number is registered too. Call if you encounter danger or trouble. Acting with Lin Wuming is the same as telling him."
Lin Wuming also nodded. He only had one phone, and this was the safest way.
After a slight delay, Lin Wuming took the opportunity to count the number of people again, and after confirming that everyone was present, he gave an order and led the children towards freedom and a new life.
Thus, people who were working normally in the lobby on the first floor of the "Black Moon Technology" headquarters suddenly saw a strange scene—a girl wearing a white robe, like a patient in the hospital, rushed into the lobby.
Seeing the people coming and going in the lobby, Kinuhata Saiai was also stunned for a moment. She didn't expect there to be so many people after coming up.
If they were all members of the "Dark May" project team…
But this thought only flashed through Kinuhata Saiai's mind.
"Don't be afraid! I'm a Level 3, and I also have Little Lin and that great esper sister. Even if they are all enemies, we can defeat them!" After silently strengthening her resolve, Kinuhata Saiai called out to the back, "Keep up! The door is right in front!"
Immediately afterward, a group of children dressed in the same attire poured out and rushed towards the door under Kinuhata Saiai's leadership.
Contrary to expectations, the staff in the lobby, instead of stepping forward to stop them when they saw this scene, reminded each other to step back, not daring to stand in the way of these children.
They were all formal employees of "Black Moon Technology Development Co., Ltd." – but belonged to the legitimate part of the company.
And this company, in the end, was a shell company created to cover up the "Dark May" project. The above-ground and underground parts belonged to two completely different systems.
Only researchers at the section chief level or above, as well as the armed security forces, knew the truth about the "Dark May" project.
As for the other employees, they were part of the cover-up. They didn't know anything, they just accepted employment and came here to clock in.
But even so, among these peripheral ordinary employees, there were many legends about the company's "underground part."
There's no smoke without fire. As the people closest to the secret, these ordinary employees could more or less realize that some illegal experiment was being conducted underground—after all, this kind of thing was not uncommon in Academy City.
So, when they suddenly saw a large group of children running out from inside the building today, they weren't surprised.
Of course, it was even more impossible for them to step forward to stop them—as ordinary workers, they naturally avoided illegal experiments and the like.
Even if it later attracted an investigation by the security forces, they were just uninformed irrelevant personnel, not accomplices of the criminal group.
The newest novels are first published on Liu 9 Shu Ba!
Amid the astonished expressions of Kinuhata Saiai and the others, the last part of the escape route was smooth. Without any hindrance, more than two hundred children poured out of the "Black Moon Technology" headquarters building, without a single one falling behind.
The two security guards guarding the door initially intended to stop them, but they were not from the same company as the armed security guards in the underground training ground. They were just ordinary gatekeepers.
Seeing so many children popping up out of nowhere, they knew that something was wrong, so they just shouted symbolically a couple of times and stepped aside, giving way.
When all the children had escaped from the "Black Moon Technology" headquarters building, it had already attracted the attention of passers-by on the street outside, and Lin Wuming was finally relieved.
He exchanged a glance with Komori Tooru: "We need to hurry. The security forces will be here soon."
What they were about to do next would not be allowed either. If the security teachers arrived, they would definitely step in to stop them.
Komori Tooru looked at the staff member hiding in the corner, trying to minimize her presence: "Do you want to find someone to ask?"
"No need," Lin Wuming immediately shook his head in denial. He didn't need to guess to know what this girl meant by "asking."
"The computer room is on the top floor," Lin Wuming pointed to the guide map on the wall of the lobby. "The above-ground part of this company is public, so the map should be fine."
