A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 900 The Arrogant Lin Wuming
"...Senior Wuming, you are being far too arrogant!" Shirai Kuroko stood in front of Lin Wuming with her hands on her hips and said righteously.

Because her relationship with Lin Wuming was the most special—in a sense, it was close enough, but in fact, it was relatively unfamiliar and could not be compared with the other three—only Shirai Kuroko could make such a straightforward evaluation of Lin Wuming under these circumstances.

Misaka Mikoto, standing to the side, sighed softly, revealing a helpless and troubled expression—Kuroko was right, but Mumei-senpai has always been like this!

Because they understood, Misaka Mikoto and Shokuhou Misaki both had an "I knew it" expression, but didn't rush to refute it.

Only someone like Shirai Kuroko, who is a newcomer in every sense, would try to argue like this...

At this moment, they were at the southeast gate of Academy City, just one step away from leaving Academy City.

Half an hour ago, thanks to the mediation of Tsuchimikado Motoharu, Lin Wuming and the Knight Commander resolved their misunderstanding and reached a peace agreement. Immediately afterwards, Lin Wuming and Shokuhou Misaki followed Tsuchimikado Motoharu and the Knight Commander outside the castle, where they found Kanzaki Kaori and Stiyl.

Of course, Sister Osora Aquinas and a group of people from the Amakusa Cross Church were also present.

It can be said that, apart from Sister Agnes's troops who were the first to board the ship and leave, almost all the parties involved in this "Book of Law Incident" gathered together.

Taking this opportunity, each party present gave a recap of the details of the incident they knew, conducted a comprehensive review of the event, and shared intelligence to avoid a repeat of the pointless battle.

Overall, Lin Wuming and Misaki Shokuhou, as members of Academy City, actually had no direct connection to the incident itself—if Lin Wuming hadn't personally taken action to wipe out Sister Agnes's entire force, he could have completely ignored it; moreover, Lin Wuming had no interest in the matters of the Church of Christ, so after the exchange, he and Misaki Shokuhou returned to Academy City.

Then, at the city gate, they encountered Tomi, Misaka Mikoto, Shirai Kuroko, and others who had rushed over.

Although the girls had reached a tacit agreement to keep their distance and avoid meeting each other for the time being, and to allow themselves to calm down; in addition, they also wanted to keep their distance from Lin Wuming so that he could also calm down...

However, unexpected events occurred frequently. When the Knight Commander attacked, Misaki Shokuhou notified the others as a precaution.

However, the battle ended quickly, and after the misunderstanding was cleared up, they immediately headed to the docks outside the city...

Misaka Mikoto and the others were still worried, so they eventually made their way to the city gate and finally met the two who had just returned.

After sharing the information, Misaka Mikoto and Shokuhou Misaki also learned that the Rear Water might attack Lin Wuming.

Moreover, according to the Knight Commander's judgment, this possibility is quite high!

Therefore, Lin Wuming decided to stay at the city gate for the time being and not go back. If the water from the rear really attacked, he planned to go out of the city to fight directly, so as to avoid causing a big commotion in the city, causing a lot of unnecessary damage, and possibly affecting innocent citizens.

Faced with a formidable enemy, the girls naturally put aside their previous entanglements and grudges, and all expressed their willingness to stay and fight the enemy together.

Lin Wuming was naturally unwilling; that was the water behind them! Even he himself was unsure of what to do with it, so how could he let them take the risk?
Thus began the initial argument, which resulted in Shirai Kuroko criticizing him for being "arrogant."

Lin Wuming was speechless, because Shirai Kuroko was right; it was arrogance.

Essentially, Lin Wuming believed that no one else was reliable, especially these girls in front of him. In other matters, Lin Wuming would undoubtedly trust them unconditionally, but when it came to "combat"—having realized his feelings for them, how could he possibly let them face danger directly?
Rationally, Lin Wuming was also very clear that these girls were not weak at all; in fact, they could be said to be at the very top level of Academy City.

However, in Lin Wuming's heart, he still regarded them primarily as people he wanted to protect...

“Nameless senior,” Misaki Shokuhou suddenly spoke up, “before our relationship is truly established, you are not in a position to unilaterally treat us as objects to be protected. We also have our own dignity.”

“Shokuhou is right!” Misaka Mikoto nodded repeatedly. “Muke-senpai has no right to criticize our decision!”

Just then, Gao Ping Hongliang emerged hesitantly from the corner—he was the commander in charge of managing this city gate, which was why he allowed Lin Wuming and his lovers to block the gate and chat.

Of course, as someone who had been through it all, Gao Pinghongliang could also see that the situation around Lin Wuming was indeed quite complicated.

In addition, given his previous record of acting on his own initiative and causing a blunder, Gao Ping Hongliang was actually very reluctant to show himself in front of these girls.

only……

“Mr. Lin Wuming, there’s something I feel I must inform you of.” Gao Ping Hongliang, knowing the urgency of the situation, spoke rapidly as he approached, “Radar has detected someone rapidly approaching this city gate, so just in case, we are preparing to enter a state of emergency here…”

In other words, we can't let those few people block the entrance anymore.

"Someone... The radar here can even detect human bodies?" Lin Wuming was somewhat surprised.

"To be precise, we were scanning for hypersonic objects heading towards Academy City, but this time the target we found was just one person," Kouyoshi Takahira explained.

Before Lin Wuming could ask any more questions, he saw the tiger bee Toumi beside him raise its chin and say, "They're here."

Looking back towards the outside of the city, a figure appeared at the end of the road.

"They're here..." Lin Wuming exclaimed, seemingly resigned to his fate.

Lin Wuming wasn't good at recognizing people, but the moment he saw that figure, he knew it was Houfang Zhishui.

The real big boss has arrived!
Lin Wuming had mixed feelings, but he wasn't afraid... after all, he was a veteran of countless battles and confident in his own strength.

This time it was just that we encountered a stronger enemy than before; as for anything else, there was nothing particularly special.

It's like a high school senior being dragged into the exam room right at the start of the last semester... You only have less time for review and integration, but you've already mastered everything you need to know, so there's nothing to be afraid of.

"Now there's no reason for us to stop, right?" Misaka Mikoto rubbed her hands together, her body crackling with electricity.
