Chapter 859: The Fleeing Spatial Ability User
“Yumizuru Hyouka… Is this a mission from Anbu School?” Lin Wuming asked, following up, “Is it related to Sister Orsola?”
“No… Uh, it was indeed a request given to Anbu School,” Yumizuru Hyouka replied softly, “It was just a request to investigate Koura.”
Koura was suddenly startled, and couldn’t help but gasp, “You… you are also… Dark Side Organization?”
“Not me, I already said I’m just here to help,” Mi Yi Aiyu’s smile grew brighter, “This child is a member of Anbu School—you should have heard that name, right?”
Koura’s face instantly turned pale. Of course, he had heard of it. Anbu School, one of only two Dark Side Organizations in Academy City with a Level 5, was notoriously fearsome and terrifying in the industry!
Thinking that he had actually been targeted by Anbu School, he suddenly felt as if the sky was falling, and then he looked at Lin Wuming as if grasping at a life-saving straw.
“Don’t be afraid,” seeing him cower so quickly, Mi Yi Aiyu also found it a bit boring, “Since Our are willing to show ourselves, and you are still alive, it means you have passed—at least in this matter, Our will not trouble you again.”
He didn’t care to dwell on exactly “which matter,” Koura’s complexion recovered, and feeling the joy of surviving a disaster, he didn’t care about too many things for a moment.
“What exactly is going on?” Lin Wuming pressed.
He had some understanding of Anbu School’s situation, so he found it a bit unusual.
Mi Yi Aiyu explained, “Actually, it’s nothing much, it’s just that the nature of this case is a bit special—it involves the Cross Religion, so Our had to take it seriously, but the matter itself isn’t that important, so Anbu School only sent Hunter-chan alone to carry out this mission. I happened to be free, so I came along to take a look…”
She said it very casually, but Koura was still immersed in the feeling of relief from surviving a disaster.
As a mere mortal, Koura knew best that precisely because it was an “unimportant small matter,” the life or death of a small character like him was irrelevant.
In other words, to be on the safe side, it was not impossible to directly eliminate him as a “hidden danger.”
“But in my opinion~” Mi Yi Aiyu raised her phone and took a photo of Koura, “This Gao Ping-sensei indeed has no intention of betraying Academy City.”
“Yes, yes, Mii Aiyu, you are right!” Koura nodded repeatedly—the testimony of a high-Level Mind Reading ability user carries legal validity, and at this time, he couldn’t care about trivial matters like inner privacy.
“So that’s how it is, so that’s how it is…” Mi Yi Aiyu was also not polite, openly displaying her ability in front of him.
Then she looked at Sister Orsola, who was a bit at a loss, “You thought this Sister Orsola was Lin Wuming’s confidante, so you took matters into your own hands…”
“Uh… yes.” Koura, whose thoughts were exposed, was a bit embarrassed and didn’t dare to look at Lin Wuming.
After all, he guessed wrong.
But on the other hand, he also breathed a sigh of relief—although he messed up, he still put in effort even if there was no credit. At least, through Mii Aiyu, Lord Lin Wuming understood his painstaking efforts.
Lin Wuming also showed a surprised expression—so that’s what happened. He was wondering why this guy, who had no reason to be involved with him, would suddenly come knocking.
Orsola Aquinas, on the other hand, turned her head away, her face slightly flushed. She also didn’t expect that her smooth entry was actually due to this reason…
Shirai Kuroko had already guessed the truth, but now that Mi Yi Aiyu had exposed it publicly, she just rolled her eyes and let out a “Hmph.”
“What a pity, you tried to curry favor but chose the wrong target.” Mi Yi Aiyu chuckled, then suddenly her expression changed, “But Lin Wuming, you should quickly find a place to hide her, they are coming!”
As she spoke, Lin Wuming had already seen Shokuhou Misaki’s exclusive vehicle appearing at the end of the road.
Lin Wuming naturally ignored her—hide what? What is there to hide? And besides, to properly settle Sister Orsola, he really needed Shokuhou Misaki’s help.
“Tsk, that’s really nice, it’s so convenient to have no secrets.” Mi Yi Aiyu clicked her tongue.
No secrets, complete honesty, also means complete trust—for “psychic” ability users, there is nothing more desirable than this kind of trust.
Suddenly feeling a bit bored, Mi Yi Aiyu put away her phone and said to Koura, “What are you still doing here? Although this is a misunderstanding, you really wanted to help Lin Wuming hide her, didn’t you? And you knew to hide it from Shokuhou Misaki. Now that she’s here, are you staying here to wait for death?”
“Eh? Oh!” Koura suddenly realized, and rushed to his car without delay, “Lord Lin Wuming, please allow me to take my leave first, hope to see you again when there’s a chance!”
“Tsk, what a pity, this unfortunate man.” Mi Yi Aiyu shook her head and sighed.
Speaking of “unfortunate,” Lin Wuming inexplicably thought of Kamijou Touma—after settling Sister Orsola, he would contact Kamijou Touma and Tsuchimikado Motoharu. After all, it was a matter of the Cross Religion, so it was just right to let them handle it.
Anyway, according to the trend of the original plot development, directly taking her to the British Puritan Church would complete the mission, and there was no difficulty.
Moreover, tomorrow was the day of the Level test, and Lin Wuming temporarily had no mood or energy to deal with a trivial matter like Sister Orsola.
Soon, Shokuhou Misaki’s exclusive vehicle stopped by the roadside, and then a group of girls got out of the car.
Just as Shirai Kuroko said, after Lin Wuming left, the girls indeed couldn’t bring themselves to fight.
After all… fighting was not the goal, and even winning or losing was not important—on the premise that the competitor could not be completely eliminated, the losing side was more likely to evoke the boy’s pity.
The so-called battle was merely to show their respective wills and resolve in front of Lin Wuming.
After Lin Wuming was taken away, Shokuhou Misaki and the two other girls confronted Misaka Worst and Kazakiri Hyouka for a while, then chose to cease hostilities because they “felt bored.”
And then, they spent a little effort to find Lin Wuming’s whereabouts and came all the way here…
“Kuroko, so… what’s the situation?” After getting out of the car, Misaka Mikoto immediately grabbed Shirai Kuroko to ask about the situation.
Shirai Kuroko seemed to be frightened, and immediately activated Space Movement to escape.
“Eh?” Misaka Mikoto grabbed at empty air, and was also a bit surprised for a moment—in her memory, this was the first time Kuroko had fled from her, even at the cost of using her ability.
Could it be…
Misaka Mikoto looked up and saw Shirai Kuroko standing on top of a tall, unmanned truck. Their eyes met, and then Shirai Kuroko disappeared again.
