A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 666 A Curse

Hufeng Toumi took the initiative to leave the ward, leaving time for Lin Wuming and Stiyl.

"What a good girl, isn't she?" Steele said, looking towards the door.

"Well, time is limited, just tell me what you have to say." Lin Wuming reminded.

"Nothing special, except the usual thanks. I just came to tell you—after all, you have the right to know." Stiyl held a cigarette in his mouth, but since we were in the hospital, he didn't light it. "I'm ready to leave."

"It seems that your mission has been completed." Lin Wuming nodded.

"Thanks to you, it's done." Stiyl nodded and said, "Also, Aureos—he's dead. After that, the Alchemists will be taken over by the Church of Necessary Evil."

"So, he actually..."

"Things like changing one's appearance," Stiyl interrupted Lin Wuming, "can be accomplished with either magic or your science and technology. Well, let me explain this clearly here—it's a sort of 'extradition' procedure. We will be taking control of the alchemists from now on. I've already discussed this with the Chairman."

"I understand." Lin Wuming nodded, not surprised by the result. "But what does this have to do with me?"

"So it's the right to know. As the general director, you should have at least the right to know, right?" Stiyl explained, "Especially since you're so deeply involved in this incident."

"Tsk, what a cheap reward." Lin Wuming exclaimed in astonishment.

"I'm sorry, I can't pay you more." Stiyl apologized sincerely, "But consider it a small compensation. I'll give you some information for reference only, about this."

Stiyl pointed to his forehead as he spoke.

Lin Wuming immediately thought of the white hair on his head.

"This is the clue given by the Supreme Bishop," Stiyl said. "To put it in a way you can understand, it's a 'curse', inherently harmful."

"It's really an unsurprising explanation." Lin Wuming said calmly. He certainly knew that these white hairs were harmful, and he knew it from the beginning.

After all, this is the aftermath of the "Dragon King's Sigh" attack, so it's obvious that he can't be a good person.

"The reason it displayed the properties of a 'stigma' and even saved your life..." Stiyl continued, "The High Bishop's explanation is that you cannot curse an already cursed object, especially one that bears the highest level of curse."

According to Stiyl, there is a priority between the "curses". The "curse" that inherits the "Dragon King's Sigh" is undoubtedly the most powerful one. Therefore, if other forces try to affect Lin Wuming's body, they must first pass the "Dragon King's Sigh".

"The Sigh of the Dragon King" comes from the power of "St. George". In the power system constructed by Puritanism, "the power of St. George" is almost equivalent to "the power of angels".

——The power of “artificial angels”.

Therefore, in terms of rank, the "curse" that Lin Wuming carries is a very advanced power. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to encounter a power more advanced than it.

Therefore, Lin Wuming turned a disaster into a blessing. He used poison to fight poison and in disguise obtained a firewall against magical attacks.

While explaining, Stiyl looked at Lin Wuming as if he were a rare and exotic animal.

"...Well, that's roughly the situation. Just for reference." Stiyl shrugged. "If the Supreme Bishop hadn't told me this himself, I would never have believed such nonsense."

"Since this is a harmful curse," Lin Wuming twirled his bangs, "why can't I feel its 'harmful' properties now?"

"Who knows?" Stiyl spread his hands. "So this is just for reference. You're a psychic, so there are many things we can't delve into. Anyway, don't take it too seriously, but don't be too careless either. Pay more attention to this power."

"What's the point of this contradictory statement?" Lin Wuming was speechless. "In the end, doesn't it still solve any problems?" "If that's the case, then don't waste time here." Hufeng Toumi said at the door. "The time is already exceeded."

"That's really strict." Stiyl raised his hands in surrender. "Then I'll take my leave. I wish you a speedy recovery, Lin Wuming."

"Wuming." Hufeng Toumi put down the tray in his hand and reached out to touch the bangs on Lin Wuming's forehead. "Is this really okay?"

"For now, I don't feel anything unusual." Lin Wuming said, "There's no point in worrying now, so let it be."

"By the way," Tiger Bee Toumi turned and asked, "Wuming, how are you feeling now? Do you still have a headache?"

"To be honest, I still feel a little tired." Lin Wuming frowned and said, "But I know that my body has had enough rest."

"The doctor—Doctor Hellhunter—just told me," Tiger Bee Toumi picked up the cup from the tray, "If you still feel tired, go back to sleep."

"Still sleeping?" Lin Wuming showed an annoyed expression, "I'm almost tired of lying down..."

"Here are sleeping pills that can ensure a good sleep." Hufeng Toumi handed over the cup.

"..."

"The instructions from the ghost-chasing doctor in the underworld."

"Okay." Lin Wuming finally took the cup.

You still have to listen to the doctor's instructions from the underworld soul chaser.

……

When he woke up again, Lin Wuming felt much better. At least the lingering fatigue had been significantly relieved.

Lin Wuming slowly opened his eyes: "Another whole day? This break was really long enough."

"Having said that, for the sake of your health, it's best to sleep for a few more days." The voice of the ghost-chasing doctor came from the bedside.

"Senior Wuming, you're awake!" At a closer distance was Misaka Mikoto.

"Mikoto..."

"It's so great to be able to wait until you wake up, Senior!" Misaka Mikoto said excitedly, "If it's any later, I'll have to go back!"

Because Kuroko Shirai was accidentally trapped in a dangerous place before, the school has also strengthened protection measures for students - in simple terms, it is to further strengthen management.

Misaka Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko, who have been at the center of the storm in recent days and are the focus of surveillance, have no chance of violating the curfew.

"...Where are the tiger bees?" Lin Wuming asked.

After all, before he fell asleep, his last impression was of Tiger Bee's honey-soaked face.

"Hmm..." Misaka Mikoto pouted in dissatisfaction and glared at him fiercely.
