A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 630 Partner
The next evening, in Academy City, Stiyl set foot on the grounds of District 23 again after several days. After completing the immigration procedures with ease, he was planning to go straight to District 7 to visit an "old friend", but as soon as he walked out of the terminal, he was taken directly to a luxury hotel in District 2 by a car that had been waiting there.

It was said that this was a special reception arranged by Chairman Aleister to allow the reinforcements coming from afar to rest and adjust their condition.

Because he had faced Chairman Aleister directly just a few days ago, Stiyl did not raise any objections and wisely chose to follow the host's wishes.

In Stiyl's opinion, Academy City's ruler, Chairman Aleister, was similar to his own Supreme Bishop in many ways.

For example, at first glance, they all appear to be non-threatening.

One is a beautiful girl who looks like she has just reached adulthood. Apart from her exaggeratedly long hair, her whole body exudes a fragile temperament.

Although the other one looked very strange, his whole body was soaked in the jar, which was no different from being paralyzed. Naturally, he was not dangerous.

However, only when you face them in person will you have the opportunity to understand them instinctively from the depths of your soul.

Powerful and dangerous!
——If they wanted to, it would only take a moment to kill me, right?
Stiyl smiled bitterly inwardly. It was truly ironic. As the leaders of their respective factions, they clearly possessed the strongest combat power, yet they always had to make these small-time figures under them work their hardest...

Stiyl had no doubt that as long as Chairman Aleister was willing to take action, it would not be difficult to get rid of that Oreos!

“No, it’s really a troublesome thing.”

On a new day, when he once again came to the "windowless building" to meet Chairman Aleister, the human hanging upside down in the giant test tube said so.

"This isn't a simple battle of strength," Chairman Aleister explained. "The key is that this is a magician from your side."

"If I could move the pawns around at will, there would be plenty of ways to get rid of him. But doing so would mean 'science triumphs over magic,' and would inevitably trigger a new round of confrontation between factions."

Stiyl continued, "So that's why you traveled thousands of miles to ask the Puritans for reinforcements?"

"Yes," Chairman Aleister admitted. "Another important point. This time, the enemy is indeed very powerful. If it can be handled in a low-key manner, from my perspective, I would certainly prefer to handle everything privately. As long as the news doesn't leak out, even if 'science triumphs over magic' doesn't matter. Unfortunately..."

"Failed?" Stiyl frowned. "Have you sent people to try?"

"Of course, where else would the intelligence come from?"

"There is no relevant information in the intelligence I received."

"I've told you before, if this kind of information isn't managed carefully, it could lead to a confrontation between the factions," Chairman Aleister said. "I'm only revealing this to remind you not to be careless. The enemy is very powerful."

"Thank you for your kindness," Stiyl said, "but I will judge whether the enemy is strong or weak after seeing it with my own eyes."

"What I mean," Chairman Aleister continued, "is that you can find a partner. Even if a Level 0 powerless person gets involved in this incident, they can't represent Academy City, so you can use them with confidence."

"Ah, I understand. I will." Stiyl nodded repeatedly, but couldn't help muttering, "Could it be that you two colluded in advance?"

"This is the best decision for increasing efficiency and success rate," Chairman Aleister said calmly. "Even their cruel side is almost the same," Stiyl muttered. "By the way, that guy is still in hospital, right? Isn't that too cruel..."

"Don't worry," a huge clock popped out of the room, "Kamijo Touma has already completed the discharge procedures and is preparing to return to the dormitory."

In the ward, Kamijou Touma was packing his luggage with the help of Index, preparing to be discharged from the hospital and go home.

The day before yesterday, because I wanted to help Lin Wuming "break the curse", I asked Mingtu Zhuihun to remove the plaster on his right hand and also conducted a comprehensive re-examination.

It turned out that Kamijou Touma's recovery was very good. Although he could not be said to have recovered, he was already at the point where he could go home and recuperate on his own and no longer needed to stay in the ward for round-the-clock care.

I don’t know whether it’s because of the superb medical skills of the Soul-Chasing Doctor or Kamijou Touma’s own strong recovery ability.

After being allowed to be discharged from the hospital, Kamijou Touma immediately became eager to go home. After finally making it to today and completing all the procedures, he was finally eager to go home!

Although there were nurses to take care of him during the hospitalization and all the expenses were reimbursed by Lin Wuming, for Kamijou Touma, it was indeed more comfortable to return to his own home.

Not to mention, Kamijou Touma felt that his injuries were almost healed. Continuing to stay in the hospital was a waste of time and money. Given his habits and moral standards, he really didn't want to waste his friend's money any longer...

You know, Kamijou Touma has been plagued by bad luck since he was a child, and getting injured is a common occurrence; perhaps because of this, his self-healing speed is also different from that of ordinary people.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible for him to grow up healthily to this day.

However, it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone, and the injuries to his feet are indeed quite serious, so Kamijou Touma still has to use a wheelchair to get around for the time being.

"So... are you imitating Lin Wuming?" After blocking Kamijou Touma on the road, Stiyl frowned and looked at him for a long time before saying.

"What do you mean by imitating Wuming!" Kamijou Touma complained, "My injuries haven't healed yet, you bastard! It's only been a few days, you should know how badly I'm hurt!"

"It's okay," Stiyl carefully examined the boy in the wheelchair, especially his right hand. Noticing it wasn't covered in plaster or bandages, he nodded with satisfaction. "As long as he can move, it's fine. The plaster on his right hand has been removed, which is good."

“Hey, what do you mean? You talk as if I’m just an appendage of my right hand…” Kamijou Touma suddenly became alert. “Also, why are you, a magician, suddenly coming back?”

As he spoke, Kamijou Touma maneuvered his wheelchair to block Index behind him - could it be... that the Church of Necessary Evil was planning to take Index away?

Stiyl glanced at him and scoffed, "Don't worry, no one wants to deprive you of your duties as a temporary collar just yet."

Kamijou Touma heaved a sigh of relief.

"But," Stiyl changed the subject, "as a temporary collar, you also have responsibilities that you must shoulder. Let's go, there's a mission."
