A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 678 Level 5, Gathering

Shirai Kuroko looked at the four people opposite with great vigilance. Although she didn't know much about the "Anbu Organization", she at least knew "Atomic Disintegration" Maizono Shiori.

——According to my elder sister’s description, this person is not an easy person to get along with.

Although both are level 5, compared to Onee-sama, Muname-senpai, and Shokuhou-senpai, Mugino Shiori's personality and temper are quite violent.

In other words, the few level 5 people who are easy to get along with are already around me.

"Saten-san," Shirai Kuroko asked quietly, "how on earth do you know them?"

You don't need to watch to know that Riri Saotome and the person opposite her are from two completely different worlds. What kind of fate could allow them to meet and become friends?

"Uh... because of the canned mackerel?" said Ryoko Saten, scratching her head.

"Forget it. I'll listen to your story later when I have time." Shirai Kuroko shook her head, indicating that she couldn't understand. She adjusted her armband and walked towards the drive armor.

Next, it’s “working time”.

On the other side, after using the powerful skull-splitting technique on Franda who tried to sneak through, the "Props" group also walked towards the driving armor.

The culprit who attacked Franda and Saten Ruiko is important evidence, and Maizono Shiori and the others are not going to give it up - especially the discipline committee member.

The Anbu organization and the discipline committee are like two sides of the same coin. Although they are not "hostile", they are definitely not "good friends".

Besides, no matter from the perspective of strength or authority, there is no reason for the Anbu "tools" to show weakness in front of the discipline committee members.

"Hey, Discipline Committee Member, this..." Mai Ye Shenli looked over with raised eyes, and pointed with his thumb at the drive armor beside him, "This is our trophy, if you know what's good for you..."

Before he could finish his words, he was grabbed by Takitsubo Rikou from behind.

This girl who is obsessed with sportswear seems to be the only one among the four who looks more like a normal person. She exudes a lazy and relaxed atmosphere.

As a negotiating partner, she is obviously more suitable than the "gangster lady" style Mai Ye Shenli.

"What our captain means," Takitsubo Rikou said, smiling as she "translated," "is that this drive armor is important evidence, so we will take it away for investigation."

After a brief pause, as if trying to find something in her wallet, but after searching in vain, Takitsubo Rikou looked up again: "Actually, we are the secret operations force of Academy City - do you understand how to put it? We have priority in the investigation."

——He looks very weak, but he seems to be at least a level 3 esper.

Shirai Kuroko silently assessed the opponent's strength, and the opponent seemed to be stronger.

But Shirai Kuroko was not afraid at all. While showing her armband, she said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know about the secret action unit. According to the regulations, criminals who attack citizens and endanger public safety will be dealt with by the security forces, and we, the discipline committee members, have the obligation to cooperate with the security forces in such cases.

"So you are not allowed to take this drive armor away before the guards arrive."

Shirai Kuroko refused to give in and maintained a very tough attitude.

In fact, no one at the scene called the police from beginning to end, and it was unlikely that any security guards would arrive in a short period of time... However, this did not prevent Shirai Kuroko from taking advantage of the power of others.

Shirai Kuroko's reason was also very realistic - Saten Ryoko was attacked, and if she had not been careful when dodging just now, she might have been killed!

Before finding out the truth and catching the real culprit, such key evidence must of course be firmly held in one's own hands. Otherwise, wouldn't Saten Ruiko be in danger all the time?
Moreover, as for means such as remotely controlling the driving armor, I believe the truth will be revealed soon as long as Hatsuharu Shiori comes to investigate.

On the contrary, if he was taken away by these girls from the "secret action team", the situation would be completely out of his control, and it would be difficult to catch the real culprit at that time...

"Huh?" Mai Ye Shenli took another step forward, arrogantly saying, "You're quite courageous, a mere disciplinary committee member!"

Maizono Shiori's reasons were also very sufficient - Frenda had just confessed honestly that Saten Ruiko was just an ordinary girl, and Frenda became friends with her largely because she wanted a taste of her delicious food... After all, Frenda has a wide range of friends, so this is also normal.

But how could an ordinary female junior high school student be chased by a driving armor in the street?

It goes without saying that the real culprit behind the scenes is definitely targeting Franda - as a member of the Anbu organization, Franda has too many reasons to become a target of attack.

As for Riri Saten, she must be just an innocent girl who was unfortunately implicated, right?

In Mai Ye Shenli's view, this attack was a conspiracy against their "props".

As a first-rate Anbu organization, faced with such a provocation, there was only one thing they could do.

——Fight back mercilessly, hit back, and wipe out the enemy completely!

If they were reduced to calling the police or seeking help from the Discipline Committee, it would be a disgrace for the Anbu organization.

"Uh... Shirai-san, calm down." Riri Saten hurried forward to mediate. After all, the senior student opposite looked very fierce.

But on the other side, Franda pretended not to see the look that Riri Saten gave her, rubbed her head and looked away, but did not dare to step forward to persuade Maito Shiori.

"Don't worry." Shirai Kuroko still refused to give in, and even looked more confident, "Senior is coming."

As if she had predicted the future, as soon as Shirai Kuroko finished speaking, she saw a wheelchair appear at the end of the road and rush towards her.

"See." Shirai Kuroko smiled.

It was precisely because she knew that Lin Wuming had arrived that she had the confidence to confront Level 5 head-on.

Not only Lin Wuming was a little slow, but also two level 5s, Misaka Mikoto and Shokuhou Misaki, arrived together.

"Shokuhou-senpai?" Shirai Kuroko was a little surprised.

It's not surprising that Misaka Mikoto would come here. It must have been Hatsuharu Shiori who notified her, but she shouldn't have called Shokuhou Misaki over as well, right?
—We’re not familiar with Shokuhou Misaki…

But in this situation, it never hurts to have more people.

"Three..." Franda muttered while hiding behind Mai Ye Shenli, "This is not good."

"Yeah, that's very bad." Juanqi's favorite also nodded, but with a happy smile on her face. She was just about to wait for an opportunity to go over and say hello to Brother Wuming.

"Tsk! I knew it would turn out like this..." Mai Ye Shenli said in dissatisfaction.

The moment he saw Lin Wuming appear, Mai Ye Shenli had a premonition in his heart.

Nowadays, even in the underground world, Lin Wuming is a celebrity.

What's more, what makes people fear Lin Wuming is not just his personal strength, but his network of connections is the most troublesome.

——From the current situation, it is clear that at least two level 5s will unconditionally cooperate with Lin Wuming's actions.

After cursing in his heart for a long time, Mai Ye Shenli finally breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down.

Now the two sides are not in a hostile relationship, they even have a common enemy and can be considered allies.

Although he felt a little uncomfortable emotionally, even Mai Ye Shenli had to admit that the feeling of having three level 5s standing on his side... was indeed quite good.
