A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 759 The Girl Who Hasn't Greeted Us in a Long Time
The girl in the suit jumped out of the car.

It's worth mentioning that even her suit was a unique design with a yellow base and black stripes.

It didn't look bad on her, but it was just... a little strange.

She gives the impression of a capable and beautiful young woman with a somewhat eccentric personality.

"Senior Wuming..."

As if sensing the piercing gaze directed at him again, Lin Wuming frowned deeply: "I really don't acknowledge this..."

“This is Kumokawa Maria, the accounting maid you hired—she was originally going to remind you,” Misaki Shokuhou said helplessly.

"...If she were wearing a maid outfit, I would definitely recognize her!" Lin Wuming muttered to himself.

Yun Chuan Juya sighed, "It's okay. I know my current appearance is quite different from usual. Besides, my boss is a hands-off manager, so it's not surprising that he didn't recognize me."

Although it was somewhat awkward, Lin Wuming had no choice but to step forward and ask since the other party was, after all, his "subordinate."

"Long time no see, Yun Chuan. What brings you here all of a sudden?"

"Please, I manage all your assets now," Yun Chuan Juya said. "Even for the sake of those tens of billions of yen, please pay a little attention to the foundation's operations, okay?"

To be honest, after receiving the first "10 billion subsidy", Lin Wuming had become indifferent to money. After several more huge sums of money were injected into the foundation, completely solving the living expenses of the Misaka Sisters, Lin Wuming never cared about things there again.

Normally, it's all managed by Yun Chuan Juya, with Shokuhou Misaki occasionally checking the accounts.

As it turns out, Kumokawa Maria did a great job, living up to her reputation as an outstanding student at the Ryouran Housekeeping Girls' School. She managed her employer's assets very well and even made a profit—after deducting the Misaka Sisters' daily expenses.

Therefore, no one cared about Yun Chuan Juya's extravagant salary and the fact that she equipped herself with her favorite exclusive vehicle.

"You think I like it?" Yun Chuan Juya pointed to the "Bumblebee" behind her. "Okay, I do like it, but that's not the point!"

"I'm just a middle school student. How can I manage so many companies and enterprises under the foundation? If I don't intimidate them, do you think those adults will listen to me?" Yun Chuan Juya complained. "I'm a sporty beauty. Do you think I like this kind of tight little suit?"

"Uh... You've worked hard, Miss Yun Chuan!" Lin Wuming also felt a little guilty.

She was forced to become a successful career woman from a female high school student...

"Alright, people seem to be enjoying what you're doing, don't they?" Misaki Shokuhou interrupted her complaints, saying bluntly, "So stop complaining, it's just a mutually beneficial arrangement."

Yun Chuan Juya glanced at Shokuhou Misaki with some apprehension, and as expected, stopped complaining.

Unlike her older sister, Yun Chuan Qin Ya, Yun Chuan Ju Ya is still quite wary of "psychological control".

Lin Wuming asked again, "So what brings you here all of a sudden? Is there something wrong with the foundation? Are you out of money?"

Yun Chuan Juya shook her head: "No, the foundation and its various industries are operating normally, there is no need to worry."

"I just heard that you were injured and hospitalized, so I came to visit you..."

Before she could finish speaking, Yun Chuan Juya noticed that the people opposite her were all giving her looks that said, "We don't believe this nonsense."

“Okay, that was just an excuse.” Yun Chuan Juya shrugged.

After all, Lin Wuming had been hospitalized more than once or twice, and she had never visited him before. And now, she claimed to be visiting, but hadn't even brought a bouquet of flowers—it was truly insincere. Yun Chuan Juya stopped trying to hide it—since "Psychological Control" was present, there was no point in trying to conceal it.

"Actually, it's because I heard a rumor, so I wanted to confirm it directly with the boss," Yun Chuan Juya said. "It's said that during yesterday's battle against the invaders, you... used magic?"

Yun Chuan Juya stared intently at him: "Senior Lin Wuming, does magic—really exist?"

For ordinary people—even someone like Yun Chuan Juya, who is already qualified to access many secrets—"magic" remains a closely guarded secret.

According to Academy City's consistent explanation, so-called "magic" is nothing more than "superpowers of other systems".

The main reason why Yun Chuan Juya suddenly started paying attention to things related to "magic" and thought of seeking answers from Lin Wuming was that the person she cared about seemed to be coming into contact with a special power called "magic".

After much thought, Yun Chuan Juya realized that the only person who could provide her with accurate information about "magic" was Lin Wuming.

That's why she came all the way here to ask.

Just now, Misaki Shokuhou exposed that when Kiyomi Kumokawa said that it was a "mutually beneficial" situation, it wasn't that Misaki Shokuhou was bullying anyone; she was just telling the truth.

Within the foundation, Yun Chuan Juya can be considered Lin Wuming's fully authorized representative, effectively possessing all the conveniences and authority of a "nameless director."

Therefore, many things that could not be investigated before, and for which there were no channels, can now be investigated with the help of Lin Wuming's influence.

Thanks to this, Yun Chuan Juya finally found the whereabouts of the person she cared about...

“There is indeed magic,” Lin Wuming said without hiding anything, “and your sister knows about this too.”

“I asked her, but she just wouldn’t give me a clear answer,” Yun Chuan Juya said. “She’s always so secretive, it’s unbearable.”

"So, why are you suddenly asking this?" Lin Wuming countered.

"It's nothing..." Yun Chuan Juya blurted out, but when she met Shokuhou Misaki's gaze, she could only awkwardly add, "It's because someone I care about seems to be getting involved with magic, so I'm a little concerned..."

As for more details, Yun Chuan Juya did not reveal anything, but hurriedly took her leave.

She was worried that Misaki Shokuhou would see more of what she was seeing...

After driving a distance, the "Bumblebee" car suddenly reversed and returned to Lin Wuming and his group.

Yun Chuan Juya lowered the car window: "I almost forgot, I also need to ask for leave... There are things going on at school for a while, so I can't focus all my energy on the foundation like before."

"Don't worry, they'll send someone to help manage it for a while," Misaki Shokuhou said before Lin Wuming could respond.

"Also," Yun Chuan Juya turned to look at Misaka Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko, "Misaka-san, Shirai-san, you two should get ready too. You can't keep spending all your time outside like this."

As if suddenly remembering something, Misaka Mikoto's face fell, revealing an expression of disgust.

"What's wrong?" Lin Wuming asked, puzzled.

Yun Chuan Juya made no attempt to explain, and after finishing her sentence, she took her leave again and hurriedly departed.

"The Midsummer Festival starts the week after next," Misaki Shokuhou explained on her behalf.
