A Scientific Urban Detective

Using the small mirror provided by Shokuhou Misaki, Lin Wuming fiddled with the strand of white hair on his forehead—it was annoying no matter how he looked at it.

But apart from that, everything about Lin Wuming was normal, so healthy that he didn't need to see a doctor at all.

But it was because of these strange white hairs—Lin Wuming had tried to cut them off more than once, but every time he looked away, he found that they had grown back!

He tried every method but couldn't get rid of them.

Even the two magician experts, Kanzaki Kaori and Stiyl, couldn't explain why.

They could only wait for Index to wake up and consult her, to see if her knowledge of 103,000 magic books could provide a clear explanation.

Before that, Lin Wuming, who felt uneasy, and several girls who were even more concerned than he was, finally decided that it would be safer to go to the hospital for a check-up.

As a result, even Heaven Canceller, who Lin Wuming had placed high hopes on, couldn't see any problems.

Lin Wuming touched the white hair on his forehead: "So... it can only be like this for now?"

"I don't think you need to worry so much," Heaven Canceller said, "As far as the current situation is concerned, your physical condition can be regarded as completely fine. Weren't you very brave when fighting magicians? Why are you so worried now?"

"I guess that's all I can do." Lin Wuming shrugged, "Help me with the discharge procedures."

"It's already done, you can just leave later." Heaven Canceller said casually, "Compared to you, the other young man you sent is quite uniquely injured. A fractured right metacarpal, multiple muscle strains throughout the body, soft tissue contusions, mild concussion, internal organ displacement, accompanied by slight bleeding... it feels like he's been through a meticulously planned and tragic car accident. The injuries aren't very serious, but they're very evenly distributed and comprehensive. Even I rarely see such patients."

"Uh... put all his expenses on my account," Lin Wuming said, then still felt a little guilty, "Forget it, I'll go see him. Which ward is Touma in?"

A moment later, Lin Wuming and his group arrived in front of Touma's ward.

"Ah, those two magicians are inside too, so I won't go in." Shokuhou Misaki suddenly stopped and said.

"That's good, so people won't worry about you stealing their memories." Misaka Mikoto nodded in agreement.

"Heh." Shokuhou Misaki just sneered, Misaka Mikoto's skills were far from enough.

"I'll wait over there too, the ward doesn't seem to have enough space for too many people." Misaka Mikoto added.

Hachimiya Megumi, on the other hand, pushed her wheelchair and entered the ward with Lin Wuming as a matter of course.

Seeing this scene, Misaka Mikoto couldn't help but open her mouth, feeling a little regretful.

Because she suspected that Shokuhou Misaki was hiding some secrets from her, Misaka Mikoto decided to adopt a follow-the-leader strategy—whatever the Queen Bee did, she would do.

At least, trying this strategy in such trivial matters wouldn't be too serious even if problems arose.

But now it seemed that their competition here only benefited Hachimiya Megumi in the end...

"Alright," Shokuhou Misaki could see through Misaka Mikoto's thoughts—even without her superpower, it was written all over her face, "Since you've chosen to wait outside, be patient. I didn't lie to you, the ward really can't fit so many people."

She could see in Lin Wuming's ward just now that the three girls, plus Doctor Heaven Canceller and a nurse, had already filled up the single room.

Although it wasn't as crowded as a subway car during rush hour, the ward was, after all, a place for patients to rest, and having more than four people in it would inevitably give people a cramped and crowded feeling...

—Of course, all of the above were just excuses made up by Shokuhou Misaki, they made sense, but not much.

The real reason Shokuhou Misaki chose to stay outside was that she was deliberately avoiding meeting Touma.

Shokuhou Misaki didn't know how to face the protagonist of the original story—the person that the original her could never obtain.

From this point of view, Misaka Mikoto was right to make the same choice.

Of course, there was no need to tell Misaka Mikoto this reason, she wouldn't understand anyway.

After staring at the ward door for a while, Shokuhou Misaki turned and left.

"Where are you going?" Misaka Mikoto quickly asked, she looked at the door, then at Shokuhou Misaki's departing figure, feeling conflicted for a moment.

"I don't want to stand here, I'm going to find a place to sit down and rest."

Misaka Mikoto thought for a while, and finally chose to stay where she was, leaning against the wall and waiting: "What is Shokuhou so worried about?"

Shokuhou Misaki didn't want to meet Touma, especially when Lin Wuming was also present.

What she was worried about was certainly not that Lin Wuming would be jealous—if he really was, she would be thanking God.

In fact, it was the opposite.

Because of her previous experience of meeting Touma, Shokuhou Misaki discovered speechlessly that Lin Wuming's mentality still hadn't changed.

Perhaps it was because the official start of the original story—this concept further strengthened Lin Wuming's self-awareness as a "transmigrator", making him feel like he was on a "pilgrimage to a holy site" or "experiencing history firsthand" when observing or even personally experiencing these events.

The result was that Lin Wuming looked at Touma and the others from the perspective of "story characters" or "stage actors".

The newest novel is first published on 69shu.com!

—She and Misaka Mikoto were also "original story characters".

—Perhaps Wuming-senpai himself didn't realize it, but his subconscious still retained some "spectator" mentality.

That was all, Lin Wuming also shipped CPs—this time he went to the ward to see Touma, and he might have wanted to see his interaction with Index.

What made Shokuhou Misaki unable to bear it the most was that, according to the information from Lin Wuming's memories, the original novel in this world was the most classic "harem" work, and in this regard, the protagonist of the original story, Touma, had the so-called "four major orthodoxies".

As information, Shokuhou Misaki certainly knew who these "four major orthodoxies" were.

—It was really worrying, what if Wuming-senpai's dull brain misfired again and he shipped CPs between her and Misaka Mikoto...

You know, although they had been fighting openly and secretly for a long time, Lin Wuming hadn't yet regarded them as women he could date!

Shokuhou Misaki was really worried—if she really saw Lin Wuming's brain floating with thoughts that shouldn't be there, she would definitely not be able to help but brainwash him!

"Well, I'm not noble enough to that extent. If I could, I wouldn't mind taking action." Shokuhou Misaki played with the remote control, muttering to herself.

It's just that Shokuhou Misaki knew herself, she was very clear that once she used her superpower to cheat, she would definitely have to completely monopolize Wuming-senpai, fair competition or sharing was absolutely impossible. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of effort?

"But if it really comes to that, I'll definitely be killed by those two women, right?" Shokuhou Misaki muttered.

—So before gaining an absolute advantage, she can't take that step.
