A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 890 Misunderstandings and Prejudice

Does his own life even matter?

Looking at the boy beside him, who wore sunglasses and a floral shirt and had a carefree attitude, the knight commander thought that he probably didn't even care that much about his own life.

A person who is afraid of death cannot be a spy.

—That said, when he came in, he seemed to have fabricated an entire family, but he hasn't received any news about them since…

The Knights Commander suddenly remembered a sentence mentioned in the archives, so he casually asked, "How have you been lately? Are you doing well? Are your family members all healthy?"

Originally, this was just a casual remark—after all, there were more and more pedestrians around, and the two of them were pretending to be acquaintances walking together, so they had to say something to avoid arousing suspicion.

At times like these, people talk about the weather or their own and their loved ones' recent situations—formulaic social phrases that can be answered casually without even needing to think.

but……

Tsuchimikado Motoharu narrowed his eyes, his smile remaining unchanged: "Please rest assured, we are all fine."

As he spoke, Tsuchimikado Motoharu took out his student ID and swiped it to enter the gate.

The knight commander, who was queuing behind, was stunned for a moment before being ruthlessly stopped by the machine.

As a visitor who arrived in a hurry, the Knight Commander hadn't had time to get a card yet, so if he wanted to take the subway, he had no choice but to buy a ticket from the machine next to him.

But when he looked up again, Tsuchimikado Motoharu had already blended into the bustling crowd and quickly disappeared from sight.

A mere turnstile is certainly no match for the Knight Commander, but there's no need to damage public facilities over such a trivial matter.

"Was I too forceful, or are you really hiding something?" The Knight Commander turned and left the subway station. "But you don't actually think you can get away like this, do you?"

……

"Damn it, what is that madman trying to do?" Tsuchimikado Motoharu squeezed onto the subway—he didn't mind using the crowd as cover at all, and given the gentlemanly demeanor of the knight commander, this tactic was indeed effective.

While it's possible that he was overreacting, Tsuchimikado Motoharu had no room to back down on this matter—anyone who tried to harm his family was unforgivable!
The question is, what should we do next?
Tsuchimikado Motoharu was certainly not naive enough to think that this would allow him to evade capture. He knew very well that if the Knights Commander were to set aside his reservations, he could catch up and capture him at any time!

"Go outside the city to find Kanzaki? But that guy's original target was Kanzaki!" Tsuchimikado Motoharu complained. "After all that, we've come full circle. It's ridiculous."

Moreover, at this point in time, Kanzaki Kaori should be with everyone from the Amakusa-style Cross Cult.

The decision by the Amakusa clan to collectively convert and join the Puritan Church is a good thing for High Bishop Laura, but not necessarily for the Knights Commander.

It's important to understand that the Knights had always been critical of the Puritans' formation of the "Church of Necessary Evil." As both were violent fighting groups, the Church of Necessary Evil and the Knights had many overlapping functions, inevitably leading to competition and friction.

Now that the Church of Necessary Evil is about to expand again, it's easy to imagine what the Knights' faction will think; it's hard to guarantee that the Knight Commander won't act impulsively at that time...

Tsuchimikado Motoharu never hesitated to assume the worst about others' thoughts.

If it were him, he probably wouldn't have let Amakusa-style people join in so easily!

"Of course, the more crucial question is... whether I can successfully escape from that monster's pursuit and reach Kanzaki-san's side..." Tsuchimikado Motoharu murmured.

"Sorry..." Amidst the crowded carriage, Tsuchimikado Motoharu successfully "borrowed" a cell phone and then informed Stiyl of his situation.

Immediately afterwards, on the platform of the next subway station, a tall, burly blond foreigner stood out from the crowd of students, seemingly having been waiting there for some time. "Tsk, I knew he was a monster!" Tsuchimikado Motoharu clicked his tongue in amazement.

After casually deleting the call log, Tsuchimikado Motoharu patted a boy on the shoulder: "Your phone just fell on the ground."

"Huh? Really? Thank you..."

"No need to thank me, after all..." Tsuchimikado Motoharu waved his hand, then forcefully pulled down the emergency brake handle above the car door!
"After all, I'm not a good person either!"

The entire subway line suddenly began to brake before it had reached its destination.

The commotion quickly spread throughout the carriage...

Immediately afterwards, the emergency procedures were activated, the doors were opened urgently, and the passengers rushed out.

At the same time, Tsuchimikado Motoharu opened the fire extinguisher in the carriage, letting white powdery smoke fill the carriage.

The chaos worsened, and Tsuchimikado Motoharu seized the opportunity to obtain a uniform jacket and hat, allowing him to quickly change his clothes.

Finally, he took off his sunglasses and stuffed them into his pocket, then, like other ordinary passengers in the chaos, he surged out of the carriage with the crowd.

The reason I dress so uniquely in normal times is to disguise myself by "eliminating my individuality" in situations like this.

Even if the Knight Commander is incredibly powerful, it's impossible for him to pinpoint his location accurately in this foreign land!

……

"Your Majesty, it's a call from the nameless senior." Junko Hokaze followed behind Misaki Shokuhou, holding her phone.

"They already know." Misaki Shokuhou said without turning her head.

"Aren't you... going to answer?" Junko Homikaze followed closely behind.

“No need to answer,” Misaki Shokuhou turned around and looked over. “Anyway, I’ve already mentioned what I needed to say in the email, so there’s no need to answer.”

"Huh?" Junko Hokaze was somewhat surprised. "But the nameless senior..."

"Hmph, I know the nameless senior. He's not the kind of man who's good at sweet talk." Misaki Shokuhou said, as she picked up a cabbage with some difficulty and tossed it low into the air. "For everyone's sake... Hey! Let's all calm down for now."

Despite her weak physique, Misaki Shokuhou could only throw the cabbage less than three meters away, no matter how hard she tried.

But the other side caught it well. A low gust of wind whistled past, and a huge dragon head swept across the ground almost touching the ground, opening its mouth to snatch the cabbage.

Then, with a crunch, he chewed it up, tilted his head back, and swallowed it.

"Very good, very good. Eating more fruits and vegetables will ensure a balanced diet." Misaki Shokuhou nodded in satisfaction, while extending her hand.

Feilong Xiaofei cooperated by bending down and bringing his head closer.

Seeing the Queen's attitude, Junko Homikaze said nothing more. She put away her phone, put on leather gloves, grabbed a large piece of raw steak from a bowl, and threw it forcefully.

Unlike Misaki Shokuhou's weakness, Junko Hokaze easily tossed a steak weighing over 30 kilograms into the air.

Little Fei let out a joyful neigh, flapped its wings, and soared into the sky!
