A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 1128 Reasons and Excuses
With the intervention of two Level 5 girls, Accelerator quickly calmed down and regained his senses.

Facing a formidable lineup of three Level 5 opponents, including Kazakiri Hyouka who can transform into an "angel" at any time, even Accelerator was unwilling to easily become their enemy.

There's really no need to do such a thing.

Accelerator glanced at Misaki Shokuhou again—a Level 5 "Mental Control," and aside from the unidentified sixth esper, she was the most low-key esper.

It is said that she usually lives a secluded life, rarely leaving the school grounds, and due to the nature of her abilities, she has a very low profile.

However, a level 5 is a level 5, and every level 5 has their own unique strengths.

As the strongest in the field of psychological and mental manipulation, if you really treat Misaki Shokuhou as a fragile and harmless little girl, you will suffer a great loss!

Accelerator was quite certain that Misaki Shokuhou had activated her ability just now!
The reason I was able to calm down quickly and re-understand the situation must have been due to my "psychological control".

only……

Accelerator looked away, avoiding eye contact with Misaki Shokuhou, while simultaneously strengthening his defenses over his brain.

—Have you been too low-key and hidden in the shadow of Lin Wuming and Misaka Mikoto?

It doesn't make a fuss, but it subtly influences and changes other people's minds...

Accelerator shook his head again, shaking off his wild thoughts—that's not the point right now!

It doesn't matter how strong Misaki Shokuhou is.

Accelerator was confident that since he had already become aware of the danger, it would be difficult for him to fall for it again.

But Misaki Shokuhou is not an enemy, Lin Wuming is not an enemy, and even Kazakiri Hyouka is not an enemy.

So there's no need to fight them here.

After reminding himself to calm down again, Accelerator reflected on his impulsive actions.

Upon closer reflection, it turns out that the people on the other side are the ones who have been protecting the Misaka Sisters all along. From the very beginning, Lin Wuming, Shokuhou Misaki, and Misaka Mikoto have been saving and protecting the Misaka Sisters.

As for Accelerator himself, he only met the Final Signal by chance and formed some bonds with it afterward.

Just as he wanted to protect the final signal, Lin Wuming and the others were just as determined to protect the Misaka Sisters!

Therefore, in this matter, Lin Wuming and his group can be completely trusted...

If he knew this from the beginning, then why did he fight with Lin Wuming?
Aside from his genuine desire to duel with Lin Wuming, there was only one reason—he was provoked and given hints.

Based on preconceived notions, they mistakenly interpreted Lin Wuming's behavior as protecting Feng Zhanbinghua, and thus, in a moment of agitation...

Accelerator reflected on it and realized that it was indeed that strange guy who called himself "Aiwass" who was stirring up trouble.

But ultimately, the psychological and mental defenses are still too weak.

On the other side, seeing the situation ease, Lin Wuming secretly breathed a sigh of relief, while quietly asking Misaki Shokuhou, "Did you use your superpower on Accelerator?"

“Only a little bit,” Misaki Shokuhou said. “The rest is probably just his own imagination, right? The smarter a person is, the more they tend to overthink things.” Misaki Shokuhou wasn’t lying; she really hadn’t exerted much influence on Accelerator.

Accelerator himself may not have realized that what he really needed was just a way out so that he could end the fight in a reasonable way.

In fact, he knew from the beginning that this battle was meaningless and that he was the one who had provoked the fight and was just being unreasonable.

So after Misaki Shokuhou and Misaka Mikoto intervened, he decisively stopped.

However, they can understand Accelerator's feelings.

Misaki Shokuhou suddenly added, "Nameless senior, knowing too much can sometimes make you seem heartless."

Knowing the original plot, Lin Wuming was not surprised when he learned that the final signal had a problem; similarly, Lin Wuming was also convinced that the final signal would eventually be saved, so there was no need to worry.

However, to outsiders, Lin Wuming's calm demeanor throughout seemed somewhat heartless.

Not to mention that it's the other side who's so concerned that they're easily swayed, so it's not surprising that they'd anger the other side.

Lin Wuming rubbed his temples. He knew the problem Misaki Shokuhou mentioned was real, but difficult to avoid. After all, such instinctive reactions weren't easily changed, and the more one tried to cover them up, the more likely they were to make mistakes. It was better to let the misunderstanding continue...

Just then, Accelerator suddenly asked, "Do you know a guy named Aiwass?"

"Edwards?"

“Someone similar to that guy after his transformation…” Accelerator pointed at Kazakiri Hyouka, “No, strictly speaking, Aiwass is more in line with the traditional image of an angel.”

Lin Wuming then noticed the bloodstains and tears on Accelerator's chest: "Your injuries were inflicted by Aiwass?"

Accelerator nodded and pressed on, "So you know that guy?"

"Do I know... or do I not know?" Lin Wuming muttered, but finally decided to tell the truth. "Through some special channels, I've heard some information about her, but I've never met her, so I can't judge whether the information is true or false... What did Aiwass say? Did she send you to attack Fengzhan Binghua?"

Accelerator shook his head with a straight face. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that Aiwass had only told him that the symptoms of the final signal were related to Kazakiri Hyouka; as for coming to fight and trying to solve the problem with violence... that was entirely his own decision!
"Aiwass?" Feng Zhanbinghua reacted to the name, feeling as if she had heard of it somewhere before, or even seen the woman; but when she tried to recall carefully, she had no clue.

Since the safety of the final signal was at stake, Accelerator didn't hold back much and recounted his recent encounter with Evans in detail, including his own defeat.

"What is this?" Misaka Mikoto commented after listening, "While what she said may be true, she didn't mention any specific solutions to the problem at all. What kind of nonsense is this..."

"The specific solution? I can tell you." A new voice chimed in.

Everyone looked up and saw a figure appear before them amidst a burst of light.

“Aiwass.” Accelerator recognized him at a glance.

"It's nice to see you again, Accelerator." Aiwass looked at the crowd below. "Nice to meet you, Lin Wuming. It's truly wonderful that you've managed to maintain peace."

Despite saying that, there was a sense of dissatisfaction and even gritted teeth in Aiwass's tone, and his gaze seemed to linger on Lin Wuming and Accelerator.

“The root of the symptoms of the final signal lies in the superpower system,” Aiwass continued, turning his gaze back to the present, “so we need to find a solution from the magical side.”
