A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 951 Brave Beach
Lin Wuming's telekinetic scanning accuracy was extremely high, almost completely replacing "sight" for observation. Therefore, even when he was still quite a distance away, he noticed Kinuhata Saiai and the corpses at her feet, as well as the unusual manner in which those corpses died.

Worried that the overly bloody scene might cause discomfort, he made an excuse to send Shirai Kuroko away early.

Misaka Mikoto's electromagnetic scan must have also seen the scene over there, which is why she cooperated with Lin Wuming to take Shirai Kuroko away.

Although Kofumi's face was a little pale, she quickly recovered and even dared to move closer to the corpse, seemingly wanting to check whether it was necessary to call an ambulance.

"Brother Lin!" Kinuhata Saiai noticed Lin Wuming immediately and ran over quickly.

The girl stepped over the pool of blood without a care, but thanks to the protection of her "nitrogen armor," not a single drop of blood got on her.

Immediately afterwards, Kinuhata Saiai noticed Kofunomi walking towards her, and also noticed the disciplinary committee member armband on her arm.

"Disciplinary Committee member?" Kinuhata Saiai immediately became wary. "Don't meddle in other people's business! I was acting in self-defense! Besides, even if we take a step back, this is a matter for our Anbu, and it's none of the Disciplinary Committee member's business!"

"Don't be too nervous, Kinuhata," Lin Wuming stepped forward to reassure her. "Don't forget, I'm also a member of the Disciplinary Committee, and Kofumi Miwa is my comrade."

As he spoke, Lin Wuming also took out an armband from his pocket.

“Of course I know that,” Kinuhata Saiai said, “so I just reminded her, not stopped her.”

"So these people here are..." Lin Wuming said, pointing to the corpse lying in a pool of blood, "the prisoners who kidnapped and coerced you?"

"It's amazing you were able to guess the truth so quickly," Hamazura Shiage muttered from the side. "Shouldn't they normally suspect us of murder first? Could it be that they're trying to find an excuse to cover it up because it's Kinuhata?"

Then he shut up because of Takitsubo Riki's elbow strike.

Hamazura Shiage didn't mean any harm; he just suddenly thought of it and couldn't help but make a comment.

Of course, there was a hint of complaint in his voice. After all, the troubles he was currently facing could ultimately be attributed to Lin Wuming.

Lin Wuming didn't pay any attention to him, or rather, he didn't have time to deal with him at the moment. He simply said, "The Black Night Seabird was also taken hostage just now. She mentioned that the enemy's real target is Kinuhata, so... it seems that the information she provided is correct."

"She also..." Suddenly remembering something important, Kinuhata Saiai quickly said, "Takitsubo, lend me your phone, I need to contact Mugino!"

Despite Takitsubo Riko's personal assurance, Kinuhata Saiai was still very worried about the situation at the orphanage.

As for Kinuhata's beloved cell phone, it had already been taken by the criminals, so of course it couldn't still be on her.

"I knew I couldn't find a signal," Misaka Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko said, appearing out of nowhere. "So you didn't have your phone with you?"

“You guys…” Lin Wuming looked at them with some helplessness.

“After all, teleportation is Kuroko’s ability, and I can’t stop her,” Misaka Mikoto said, scratching her head.

“Nameless Senior,” Shirai Kuroko approached Lin Wuming, “Don’t underestimate me, though…”

Shirai Kuroko glanced quickly at the horrific scene beside her and scoffed, "They're just a few corpses. We've seen plenty of those while handling cases! So I don't care..."

That being said, Shirai Kuroko's tense expression and somewhat deliberately averted gaze betrayed the fact that she wasn't quite used to this situation. But it wasn't that she was completely uncomfortable; after all, she didn't vomit or run away, she just subconsciously frowned.

Clearly, she wasn't entirely unfamiliar with "corpses."

"What cases were you handling while I was away from the front lines?!" Lin Wuming couldn't help but ask.

"It's not that exaggerated," Kofumi explained with a wry smile. "It's just that I've encountered a few murders while cooperating with the guards."

To be precise, the members of the 177th Disciplinary Committee are like the "Junior Detective Club," who are drawn into various murder cases by chance, so they are quite knowledgeable and have accumulated a lot of experience.

Of course, these are all unforeseen circumstances. After all, subjectively speaking, it's impossible for the security guards to allow disciplinary committee members who are still students to be involved in such serious cases.

"Ahem!" Shirai Kuroko coughed. "Actually, I saw a suspicious vehicle approaching from the rooftop just now..."

“That…” Hamazura Shiage raised his hand and said, “That should be the cleaner… we called him to clean up the mess.”

Although Academy City is advertised as "the safest city," what is it really like...?

It can only be said that everyone present had their own judgment.

If it were really that safe, then Kofunomi and Shirai Kuroko, as disciplinary committee members, wouldn't be so "well-informed".

Of course, the "good news" is that such dark and cruel aspects are basically confined to the other side of the city and are not easily discovered by ordinary citizens.

"Cleaners" exist to ensure the "peaceful daily lives" of ordinary citizens.

Seeing several workers in sanitation worker uniforms skillfully cleaning up the scene and packing the five bodies into a vehicle, Shirai Kuroko had a hesitant expression on her face.

How many times has this happened in places she can't see?

“Nameless Senior…” Shirai Kuroko gently tugged at Lin Wuming’s sleeve, “Is this kind of thing… very common?”

"I guess...right?" Lin Wuming wasn't entirely sure either. "After all, I haven't been involved in these cleanup matters."

Looking back on his past experiences, it seems that every time Lin Wuming went on a killing spree, the guards were responsible for cleaning up the mess.

After all, he had ample evidence that he was acting in self-defense, or that the other party was an illegal experimental institution that deserved to die, so there was no need for him to be so secretive and cautious.

“After all, you are ‘Hero Lord’,” Hamazura Shiage said. “And right now you’re just an ‘Nameless Director,’ so of course you don’t need to care about these things.”

If it were anyone else, they wouldn't receive such good treatment. Even a secret organization like "Props" has to pay a considerable sum when hiring cleaners.

"Hey, you!" Misaka Mikoto glared at her. "It seems like you've been picking a fight ever since! Do you have a problem with us?"
