A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 986 Let's use mind control on them.
Huang Quanchuan Aihui's timely intervention resolved the awkward atmosphere. As Lin Wuming's legal guardian, she is essentially his parent, so Lin Wuming can no longer be considered an orphan.

“However…” After the tap, Aiho Yomikawa stroked her chin thoughtfully and said, “I’ll probably be very busy during the Daihasei Festival, so I really won’t have time to attend parent-teacher meetings or cheerleading sessions.”

Aiho Huangquanchuan is a physical education teacher, and the Daihasei Festival is her busiest time. Not to mention that she is also a bodyguard, which is also one of the busiest professions at that time. She probably won't even have time to watch the events Lin Wuming is participating in, let alone find time to do other things.

Although Huang Quanchuan Aisui herself felt she had failed in her parental responsibilities, she also knew that Lin Wuming wouldn't care about those things. Her current stance was primarily to persuade Lin Wuming on behalf of the school.

As things unfolded, seeing that Huang Quanchuan Aisui had stepped forward, Lin Wuming could no longer refuse and finally agreed to the principal's request to serve as the school's student representative, making an appearance at the parents' meeting.

After Lin Wuming agreed, the principal turned his expectant gaze to Yifang Tongxing.

“This great one… tsk,” noticing Aiho Yomikawa’s frowning gaze, Accelerator changed his tune, “…I don’t care at all. Since Mumei has agreed, I have no objection.”

The principal was overjoyed and stepped forward to shake hands with the two men to express his gratitude.

Afterwards, seeing that the goal had been achieved, and knowing that both Level 5s disliked tedious meetings, the principal immediately adjourned the meeting and let Lin Wuming and Yifang Tongxing go home.

Leaving the principal's office, Accelerator didn't dwell on what had just happened, but he was quite concerned about another matter.

"Nameless, you..."

Lin Wuming raised his hand to interrupt him: "Excuse me, I suddenly thought of something very important. If it's not urgent, let's talk about it tomorrow."

Accelerator frowned, but ultimately said nothing more, waved his hand, and walked away.

Lin Wuming maneuvered his wheelchair at breakneck speed down the corridor, rushing towards the school gate while simultaneously dialing a number on his phone.

I hadn't thought of it while I was in the principal's office, but after coming out, inspired by the topic of "parents' meetings," Lin Wuming suddenly realized that there was a parent who might run into trouble during the Daihasei Festival!

Misaka Misuzu—Misaka Mikoto's mother. According to the original storyline, she will definitely visit Academy City!
So here's the question: should we tell her about the Misaka Sisters?
Thinking of this, Lin Wuming immediately contacted Misaka Mikoto by phone.

Coincidentally, Misaka Mikoto and Shokuhou Misaki also noticed the same problem.

"Oh no, if my parents find out about my sisters, they'll go ballistic!" Misaka Mikoto said worriedly. "They might... no, they'll definitely make me transfer schools and leave Academy City!"

Despite the many dark aspects of Academy City that cannot be seen in the light of day, despite the numerous traumas it caused Misaka Mikoto, and even the tragic creation of the "Sisters"...

But to be fair, Misaka Mikoto found that she still couldn't truly hate the city.

In fact, she already considered Academy City her second home.

This is not surprising. Despite its many problems, Academy City is the only home for superpowered individuals in this world.

As a Level 5 esper, Misaka Mikoto was already aware that she was different from ordinary people. If she were a lower-level esper, it wouldn't be too difficult for her to integrate into ordinary society after leaving Academy City.

However, high-level ability users, especially the few level 5 superpower users, have found it difficult to integrate into normal society because their power is too great.

Misaka Mikoto has experience leaving Academy City to travel and give lectures in the outside world, so she has a deep understanding of this.

For a short period of time, she can hide her abilities and live a normal life like an ordinary person. But this won't work in the long run. For high-level ability users, superpowers have become one of their "instincts," just like breathing and heartbeats. It is undoubtedly very difficult to suppress these "instincts" for an extended period.

In this world, besides Academy City, what other human society would allow espers to freely use their abilities?
Academy City may indeed have many bad aspects, but the relationship between espers and it is like that of fish and water. At least Misaka Mikoto cannot imagine what her life would be like after leaving Academy City.

More importantly, she didn't want to be separated from Lin Wuming!

Lin Wuming is now a "nameless director", and there are even rumors that he will soon become the "vice chairman". No matter how you look at it, Lin Wuming has no reason to leave Academy City.

Therefore, leaving Academy City is equivalent to separating from Lin Wuming, and Misaka Mikoto absolutely does not want that to happen!

As for the nameless senior accompanying him to leave Academy City—he wouldn't even dream of such a thing.

—Shokuhou and Tobi-chan definitely won't leave, so it's impossible for the nameless senior to truly abandon them...

So in the end, you'll be the only one left to be abandoned, right?
I don't want that kind of future!
"Shokuhou!" Misaka Mikoto gripped Shokuhou Misaki's shoulders tightly with both hands. "I can only ask you for help! If my parents really find out... I can only ask you to step in!"

"Eh~" Misaki Shokuhou looked over with a surprised expression, "You really are ruthless, aren't you? You even want to tamper with your family's memories..."

"I just don't want to hear you criticize me..." Misaka Mikoto said dejectedly, "but I don't have any better options, unless they don't come to Academy City..."

“Then tell them not to come,” said Misaki Shokuhou.

“Impossible,” Misaka Mikoto said with a wry smile. “My parents are both very determined and have a strong drive to act. Once they’ve made up their minds about something, it’s very difficult to change their minds!”

"And if I suddenly stop them from coming, it will definitely backfire." For Misaka Mikoto, this is a complete dead end.

Unless a miracle happens and the parents are suddenly unable to attend the Daihasei Festival...

My father is alright, since he's busy with work and travels all over the world, so he might not be able to find the time to come over. But my mother, Misaka Misuzu, is much freer. As a full-time housewife, she has plenty of time, and recently she's even had enough free time to go back to school and continue her studies.

Without a doubt, at least her mother, Misaka Misuzu, will definitely come.
