A Scientific Urban Detective

After sending Aiho Kiyama back to her bedroom, Lin Wuming leisurely tidied up the kitchen and living room, and after washing up, he returned to his own bedroom. He even had the energy to play with the new phone he had gotten today for a while.

Because he had stayed up too late this morning, Lin Wuming also woke up later than usual.

"Wuming... it's only 6:30," Aiho Kiyama, who had gotten up to use the bathroom, rubbed her eyes and looked at the time, then looked at Lin Wuming, who was busily working in the kitchen, and exclaimed sincerely, "Don't you need to sleep?"

"I'm used to waking up at this time," Lin Wuming said with a smile, "Good morning, Teacher Kiyama. What do you want for breakfast?"

"Call me 'Onee-san'~" Aiho Kiyama, in a low mood from waking up early, yawned and said groggily, "Also... I don't want breakfast. I'll sleep a little longer and just have lunch when I wake up..."

"Okay, then I'll just prepare my portion," Lin Wuming nodded, then suddenly thought of something, "Oh right, there aren't enough ingredients in the fridge."

Because Aiho Kiyama was in charge of the grocery shopping, but she had been too busy with work these past few days to find time to go to the market, the stock in the fridge was almost empty.

"Eh~~" The sleepy woman was struggling to choose between sleep and delicious food.

Unfortunately, in this state, sleep undoubtedly had the upper hand.

"Then... let's just eat instant noodles... I remember there's a big pile in the cabinet..."

"Although I don't dislike instant noodles," Lin Wuming said helplessly, "what I mean is, I'm planning to go out myself later. If you need anything, I can buy it for you while I'm out."

"Is that so..." Aiho Kiyama, feeling even sleepier, stood there and thought for a while, "Nothing... just be careful, Wuming..."

With that, she staggered back to her bedroom and plunged into dreamland.

"In any case, I've reported to my guardian," Lin Wuming nodded, "She shouldn't forget after she wakes up, right?"

After several days of careful preparation, Lin Wuming finally decided to leave this apartment building and enter Academy City alone.

The act of "reporting" to Aiho Kiyama, apart from being a basic courtesy to his guardian, was also so he could ask her for help if he got lost.

After eating breakfast and washing the dishes, Lin Wuming changed into outdoor clothes, then checked his wallet, phone, student ID, and other items, and reviewed the route to the nearby supermarket again.

After making thorough preparations, he finally left home with confidence.

After eight days, Lin Wuming left the apartment building for the first time, and it was also the first time since his transmigration that he came to this new world of "Academy City" alone.

Looking up at the sky, Lin Wuming was filled with emotion.

"New world, here I come..." He cheered himself up and drove his wheelchair forward.

At the same time, in a black sedan parked on the side of the road, the person in the passenger seat suddenly woke up his partner.

"Hey, wake up! The target has appeared!"

"Hmm... eh? He finally appeared?" The man in the driver's seat also perked up, "That's right, it's the mission target! Good thing, I thought he was going to stay in that house for the rest of his life!"

The two, who had been waiting for eight days, were deeply moved.

They were professionals, but facing the nest of the security force, even as members of the dark side, they did not dare to break in easily, and could only wait outside.

Moreover, they had to constantly change their surveillance positions and vehicles, otherwise it would be easy for the security guards in the entire building to see through their disguise.

It was a very difficult and challenging job.

Now, they had finally reaped the rewards!

"The target is in a wheelchair, so it's normal that he doesn't go out," the partner said.

"Don't be careless, the target is a Level 3 esper. Even if his hands and feet are crippled, he still has some combat power. Don't be fooled by his appearance," the driver said, "We'll stay put and let the underlings continue to follow him. Also, notify the leader to prepare to capture the prey!"

"Understood." The partner made an OK gesture while taking out his phone to contact the outside.

The black car did not move at all, as if it was just an ordinary car parked on the side of the road.

So Lin Wuming didn't notice anything unusual when he passed by it.

However, in a slightly more distant alley, the figures of some delinquent teenagers faintly appeared.

Those delinquent teenagers also did not arouse Lin Wuming's vigilance. He just thought that those punks were very bold to be active in a place where security teachers were gathered.

Soon after, the leader of the dark side "Hunters" received a message from his subordinates.

The latest novels are first published at 6 9 books!

"The target has appeared. Take action immediately and prepare to capture him!" The leader picked up a large travel bag, got out of the standby van, and went straight to the predetermined high point.

With his order, more than ten members of the "Hunters" also launched their operations, weaving an invisible but extremely tough net around the target - Lin Wuming.

The dark side "Hunters" - as the name suggests, is a dark side organization whose main business is "hunting humans". Experimental subjects like Lin Wuming, who escaped from experimental institutions, are their main targets; even when certain illegal experimental projects lack experimental subjects, they can hire them to capture more "guinea pigs".

Even among the dark side organizations in Academy City, they are the most inferior. It's simply because their mission is too base.

The dark side organizations in Academy City are essentially unacknowledged semi-official organizations. Their existence is generally to maintain the basic operation of the city. Although other dark side organizations occasionally receive tasks such as "capturing escaped experimental subjects", these are orders directly issued by the higher-ups, and the dark side organizations, as tools, have no room to refuse.

But the "Hunters" are different. They make this their main business, and even advertise to the public, specializing in experimental subject capture operations - which is why the "Dark May" project team chose to hire them.

Lin Wuming was unaware of the danger around him. The "Hunters" were not numerous, and they were also experienced hunters, very good at hiding themselves in the urban environment. Even other dark side organization members might not be able to detect their existence, let alone Lin Wuming, a complete ordinary person.

According to the planned route, Lin Wuming successfully arrived at the largest supermarket nearby. According to the plan, he would be able to buy everything on the list here without having to go to a second store.

Moreover, Aiho Kiyama also had this supermarket's shopping card and membership card, which made it very cost-effective to use.

Even when shopping at the supermarket, Lin Wuming had made preparations in advance, with a clear purpose, going straight to the point, and making a quick decision.

Including the time wasted due to unfamiliarity with the environment, Lin Wuming completed this purchase task in less than an hour, and then checked out and went home.
