A Scientific Urban Detective

From the bottom of his heart, Lin Wuming didn't want to work hard to cultivate and become stronger.

According to Academy City's "aptitude assessment," everyone's ability level ceiling is predetermined from the start, and there is almost no possibility of improvement through "effort" or "ability development courses."

Lin Wuming's Level 3 "Telekinesis User" will probably be his limit unless something unexpected happens. No matter how hard he tries, he won't be able to advance to Level 4, let alone Level 5.

In fact, if it weren't for the special boost of being a "transmigrator," the original "Experiment Subject Number 007" of this body would probably still be Level 0 until his death.

In the two months since arriving in Academy City, Lin Wuming had read a lot of books and taught himself many courses related to "superpower development."

In conclusion, he didn't see any possibility of his ability level advancing.

As a "transmigrator," Lin Wuming's golden finger was the passive special state of "bullet time."

Compared to telekinesis, "bullet time" was the one that could potentially improve and be enhanced.

But the problem was that, until now, Lin Wuming still didn't know how to improve the effect of "bullet time."

In the end, to summarize, cultivating telekinesis was meaningless, and there was no good way to train "bullet time," so it seemed that doing nothing was the best way to deal with the situation at hand...

Of course, saying this conclusion out loud would definitely be ridiculed and reprimanded by Hachiwaki Mitsubee, right?

So, Lin Wuming just glossed over it, saying that he was thinking about cultivation and training.

As expected, Hachiwaki Mitsubee strongly agreed with Lin Wuming's idea of strengthening his training and said that she would accompany him.

However, being an expert in one field doesn't make you an expert in another. Hachiwaki Mitsubee couldn't provide any feasible plans on how to train specifically.

"Why don't you ask other telekinesis users?" In the end, Hachiwaki Mitsubee suggested, "There must be many telekinesis users among the Judgment members."

"Telekinesis User" is a large category of superpowers—including Level 1 and even Level 0, it would undoubtedly be the most numerous type of superpower.

Judgment is originally the organization with the most espers, so it shouldn't be difficult to find a few telekinesis users to exchange ideas.

Lin Wuming didn't reject this proposal. Although he wanted to lie flat, if he could improve his self-defense ability, it wouldn't hurt to do so.

...

"Eh? Telekinesis User?" Uiharu Kazari looked over curiously, "But isn't Wuming the most powerful telekinesis user already?"

"You flatter me, Uiharu-san," Lin Wuming shook his head. "I'm just Level 3, I don't deserve the title of the most powerful."

Lin Wuming knew best that the reason he seemed so powerful was entirely due to the boost of "bullet time," which, in combination with telekinesis, produced an effect greater than the sum of its parts.

In terms of telekinesis alone, even among Level 3s, Lin Wuming was of below-average standard.

"It's not an exaggeration," Uiharu Kazari shook her head. "This is a comment given personally by the Chairwoman."

The Chairwoman—the Chairwoman of Judgment is the highest commander of the Judgment student self-governance organization.

Although essentially still a student, as the commander-in-chief managing tens of thousands of Judgment members throughout Academy City, the Chairwoman's actual authority is very high, approaching the level of the Board of Directors.

At that level, she would naturally be able to access many secrets that ordinary citizens cannot.

"The Chairwoman knows a lot, so she can make more accurate judgments." Uiharu Kazari had a deeply convinced expression. "The Chairwoman says that Wuming-san is the most powerful telekinesis user, so it definitely won't be wrong!"

"Whether I'm powerful or not is another matter, superpowers aren't just for fighting," Lin Wuming changed the subject. "I'm just better at combat applications. But in other aspects, I can still learn a lot from other telekinesis users."

Lin Wuming smiled modestly.

But Hachiwaki Mitsubee, who was walking beside him, had already rolled her eyes to the sky.

—Other aspects? This can only deceive Uiharu Kazari, who isn't very familiar with us yet.

Wuming's application of telekinesis in "other aspects" is at the level of perfection!

In fact, on the contrary, what Lin Wuming really wants to train and strengthen is precisely the "combat" aspect.

Uiharu Kazari didn't intend to delve deeper. She was just habitually extending the conversation topic just now.

"I understand, I'll keep an eye out for you." Uiharu Kazari immediately nodded in agreement. "There are quite a few telekinesis users in Judgment, but most of them are Level 2 and Level 3. If you want to find a Level 4 esper, you might have to ask the Chairwoman."

"That's enough, thank you very much, Uiharu-san!" Lin Wuming said.

Following that, Lin Wuming tentatively asked, "Uiharu-san, do you... have any worries?"

"Eh, do I?" Uiharu Kazari suddenly seemed to come back to her senses, subconsciously raising her hand to touch her cheek. "Is it that obvious?"

"Of course it's obvious," Hachiwaki Mitsubee retorted, "Even Wuming noticed it."

Although there was a hint of teasing Lin Wuming in her words, Uiharu Kazari nodded in agreement. "It seems I was indeed very distracted. Sorry!"

Today, the trio was still patrolling the streets as usual, but because Uiharu Kazari was often lost in thought, all the incidents they encountered along the way were handled by Lin Wuming.

"Well... I encountered a rather tricky... no, it should be said a very troublesome case." Uiharu Kazari carefully considered her words, while also thinking about whether to reveal everything to her two companions.

—The "underground arena" is obviously a very troublesome and dangerous event. Just like Kurozuma Mitori insisted on not letting me get deeply involved, I don't want to drag Wuming-san and Hachiwaki-san into it either.

But on the other hand, the three of them are now teammates in a group. Unilaterally concealing secrets from two companions is not conducive to group unity—especially since they have already noticed it.

Moreover, Lin Wuming and Hachiwaki Mitsubee have close relationships with the Anti-Skill, maybe they can seek help from the Anti-Skill teachers through them...

Seeing her hesitate and stammer, Hachiwaki Mitsubee couldn't help but say, "Don't worry too much, Uiharu-senpai! Just tell us if you have any difficulties, Wuming will definitely help you wherever he can."

"Yes," Lin Wuming nodded, "Hachiwaki will also help."

"As expected of the 'Hero' duo." Uiharu Kazari couldn't help but smile, she put down her worries and prepared to speak.

Just then, a strange voice suddenly came from her personal radio: "Attention all units, attention all units, all Anti-Skill members and Judgment members in the 7th District, please note..."
