A Scientific Urban Detective

#585 - Take care of your Mikoto

"Speaking of which, Senior Nameless and Touma Kamijou are classmates, right? Since you've decided to make Touma Kamijou the savior, then hurry up and urge him on!" Misaki Shokuhou said, "Compared to Senior Nameless, the current 'savior' is still far behind!"

"I'll try my best," Lin Wuming responded.

But in fact, Lin Wuming wasn't particularly worried about this. Because according to the original plot, the series of events that followed would be enough for Touma Kamijou to grow and level up.

As long as he followed the original plot again, he should still be able to train a 'savior'... right?

During this period, Lin Wuming decided to maintain an appropriate distance from Touma Kamijou and try not to interfere too much with the original plot.

After all, Lin Wuming was still pretending to be "himself who doesn't know the original plot" on the surface, so it was impossible for him to contact Touma Kamijou too blatantly.

And to be honest, Lin Wuming was also quite afraid of Touma Kamijou's weird bad luck—it could easily affect him.

Therefore, at school, Lin Wuming only interacted with Touma Kamijou within the normal range.

Lin Wuming was a popular figure in the school and the branch manager of the Anti-Skill's 110th branch; so, students at a certain high school were used to seeking help from the 110th branch whenever they encountered various problems.

Like a "Jack-of-all-trades," it could also be regarded as a manifestation of Lin Wuming's "unchanged original intention."

And Touma Kamijou, who was plagued by bad luck, was undoubtedly a regular at the branch's activity room.

Over the course of a semester, Lin Wuming and his five branch members had lost count of how many times they had helped Touma Kamijou post missing person notices.

In addition, there were also quite a few cases of lost and reissued bank cards and student IDs.

With Lin Wuming's current status and position, plus Yun Chuan Qianya secretly giving the green light, reissuing documents was much faster than Touma Kamijou running the process himself.

It could even be said that it largely offset the inconvenience caused by bad luck.

Therefore, over time, Touma Kamijou developed a considerable degree of reliance on the "Jack-of-all-trades" run by Lin Wuming.

Finding Wuming when in trouble became Touma Kamijou's subconscious first reaction...

Just like today—July 20th, the first day of summer vacation.

After rushing to school, Touma Kamijou didn't go to his classroom right away, but went to Class 1-1 directly below, to find Lin Wuming.

Only after seeing the empty classroom did Touma Kamijou realize deeply—summer vacation had already started today!

As Class 1-1 was a gathering place for top students, no one in the class needed to come to school for tutoring during the holidays, and Lin Wuming was even less likely to come for tutoring...

"Miscalculated, damn it!" Touma Kamijou sighed and scratched his head as he left the empty classroom of Class 1-1.

Then he heard the school bell ring.

"Crap, I'm late!" Touma Kamijou jumped up and rushed towards the stairs, "What an unlucky morning! I can't believe my summer vacation started like this!"

Not only did he fail to find Lin Wuming and was late for class, but Touma Kamijou's misfortune had already started earlier today.

Specifically, in the morning two and a half hours ago—seeing the bright morning sun outside the window and the good weather, Touma Kamijou prepared to take advantage of the good weather to dry the quilt on the balcony...

"...I wonder how Index is doing now." Completely not in the mood to listen to Teacher Komoe's lecture, Touma Kamijou kept spacing out, "Damn it, it's all because I'm not enlightened enough that I can only let that girl face danger alone—if it were Lin Wuming, he would definitely stand up and fight against those magicians who are chasing her, right?"

"But come to think of it, this matter has nothing to do with Lin Wuming, and it's not good to rashly involve him—after all, Index, who is in danger, is not a citizen of Academy City, and there is no reason for Lin Wuming to protect her."

This was also the reason why Touma Kamijou decisively gave up looking for Lin Wuming and didn't call him.

In places where Lin Wuming didn't know, Touma Kamijou faced a lot of misfortune and battles, but he never bothered Lin Wuming with these things.

In Touma Kamijou's view, he could ask Lin Wuming for help with things like finding lost items and reporting lost documents.

Because these were just small things to Lin Wuming.

But he couldn't easily involve others in real dangers and big troubles that required facing battles. Even if he knew Lin Wuming was very strong.

Just like the silver-haired nun he met in the morning, he didn't want to involve others in the dangers he encountered, so he chose to leave on his own initiative.

Touma Kamijou also realized the danger of the incident, so he gave up the idea of asking Lin Wuming for help.

"I've decided, when I see Index again, I'll tell her to let me protect her!" Touma Kamijou clenched his right fist secretly, "Aren't they just magicians? The fact has already proved that my 'Imagine Breaker' is also effective against magic, so what's there to be afraid of?"

Index left in a hurry in the morning, leaving her hat at his house, so Touma Kamijou was sure that they would definitely have a chance to meet again...

What Touma Kamijou didn't know was that Lin Wuming had also come to school today.

But he didn't go to the classroom, but came to the activity room of the Anti-Skill's 110th branch.

Because Yun Chuan Qianya had something to ask him.

There were only two of them in the activity room, so Yun Chuan Qianya went straight to the point.

"Lin Wuming, I'll be blunt—please control your Misaka Mikoto! Don't let her torture those delinquents anymore," Yun Chuan Qianya said, "It has already attracted a lot of attention, do you know how many people have come to me to complain!"

"Uh... Mikoto? She's still doing this kind of thing?" Lin Wuming was also a little surprised.

"Also, who is meddling in other people's business, and how did they complain to you?" Lin Wuming complained again.

In theory, Yun Chuan Qianya had nothing to do with Misaka Mikoto. So Lin Wuming couldn't figure out how the logical chain was established.

"People are just too embarrassed to come to you directly, they want to save you some face," Yun Chuan Qianya said, "Coincidentally, they also know that I'm in the same school as you, so..."

Because of her comparable status and position, Yun Chuan Qianya could indeed talk to Lin Wuming, so she was chosen to pass the message.

"As for the complainants, you don't need to consider other small characters, the main ones are Tokiwadai Middle School and the School Garden," Yun Chuan Qianya said, "You can imagine that the spread of these rumors is not very beneficial to their school districts that focus on ladylike personas."

"Okay, this is really... undeniable," Lin Wuming said, scratching his head.
