A Certain Scientific Code Vader

Chapter 19 - A Certain Prince Detective

"Ah yes, the disappearance involving the missing students." Akira note, "We indeed have permission from both their parents to announce the names Eiichi Itō and Fumihiro Yamamoto reportedly missing from a kidnapping."

"Oh dear that's terrible." The female anchor sadly said getting the cameraman to do a close up on Akira.

"Yes indeed it is, it's terrible that families have to worry on a day such as the daihaseisai festival, but things happen, crimes enters the territory of all places even Academy City. Hiding it behind the bushes is an coward's act. It is why the more others are aware increases the possibility of reports being sent to judgement and Anti skill."

"You are indeed correct Akira-Kun, and let's not forget that the ratio of crimes solve by the Takahashi family is absolute." The anchor confirms as everyone begins to applauded. "Are there any leads?"

"Actually there is." Akira said with a smirk. "I have been doing this investigation along without my family and I'm actually quite impressed how far I gotten along. I believe the culprit is actually multiple members, perhaps an group. The culprits seemly targeting multiple espers because they lack the fundamentals necessary for their own objectives, even with what there capable of. So I'm suspecting there either scientists or level "0s"."

Mara's eyes widened and the bandanna guy's shook from afar.

"Just who the hell is this guy!? That bastard should mind his own damn business." The bandanna boy said clenching his fist.

"You also mentioned capabilities?" The female anchor ask, "If you think the culprit are non espers then what could they possibly be using and or you really certain the culprit really is?

"It's because there's another force that plays an role in this. Academy City is the city science, even someone unfortunately resulted as in being a level 0, with the resources they could just about anything, after studying the damages left of the kidnapping I detected precise cuts, perfected damages, no human being can construct such results, and not consistently even though espers have abilities even a level 5 can create such results. I mean are gonna ask if it was magic? Yeah I thought so." Akira said sarcastically. "Magic isn't real but science is, the culprit is using advanced tech."

Tedashii smirk from the crowd as he continued to watch this confident detective put the pieces together.

"But there's one more thing I have add." The detective lower his head the crowd couldn't see his eyes he became completely unpredictable. "I've been doing some investigation, the culprits needed an act, to seem strong so close the route of becoming their ideal self."

"What are you getting out Akira-Kun?" The male anchor ask.

"I think there was another force behind this an injustice act being inspired by another. But it's just a hutch."

"Hmm?"

"Hoshi-Sama, do you know what they call those heroes who take on their own justice to find their ideal self? A vigilante, but I'm here to say those who take on injustice acts are cowards. Afraid to show their face to the world among the light. The group is nothing more than cowards. Even the ones who are rumor to exist, the ones from the urban legends of Academy City, A copycat esper and an Digital Hero if their supposed to be ideal heroes than our society is doom one whose afraid to show themselves to light or the ones they desire to protect are nothing more than shady untrustworthy characters."

Tedashii's eyes widened shook it was almost as if the boy stare at him. Tedashii clench his fist he felt personally attack. A glimpse thought of Akahana flash between his eyes.

"Now where gonna have a student around the same age group as Akira-Kun." The anchor female said approaching Tedashii. "What do you think an hero should be?"

"An hero?" Tedashii repeats ask his hair cover his eyes, he clench his fist, "A hero doesn't care where there are, the light or the shadows. If they can hold their wishes, if they can maintain that smile, they can fall to abyss and died if that promises remains."

"Hmm? Is that so?" Akira notes studying Tedashii's face.
The two glare at each other as a new rivalry was born.

"Oh!? That's the opposite of what you believe Akira-Kin?" The male anchor said.

"I'm aware, and this quite interesting, Well I have one more question for you then. What would happen if that person whose smile that hero was supposed to protect discovered the nature of that supposed hero, and no longer wants that hero involved in their life ever again? Betrayal at its finest."

Tedashii pause for second he lower his head once more than look up at Akira straight in the eyes, "Then hero will continue his justice amongst the shadows."

"Hmph, well there's also one more question we all should be curious about, is the why?" Vigilante is a hero to their own story there methods are their own fundamental actions. They can target innocents like the once's before us, or they could actually act in good as these urban legends rumor. They could stop crimes by killing, their limitations are questionable and their objectives or questionable. Because we don't know we could suspect all this is being perpetrated."

"Hmm? You're absolutely correct!" Akira-Kun!" The anchor appalled.

"I do apologize I didn't mean to go so deeply are offended anyone, I'm just concerning the audience to be aware of any possible threats among the horizon just as any city. The criminal crime rate is low, but just to be secure please notify any suspicious acts to judgement and anti-skill and they will directly report it to me. The secure is strengthened to prevent anymore suspicious activities."

"And that will be all for this interview," The anchor said. The show closed down and the crowd separated after Akira left to search for the detective.

"Man this is crazy! Owwww! I can't just sit here!" Li Mei shouts angrily. I'm with judgement also just everyone else taking action makes me wanna do something."

"Then how about investing yourself than." Mara said walking up behind Li Mei.

"I dunno." Li Mei sigh, "Do you think I can fine led somehow?"

"Hmm? Well how about tomorrow we can try finding out where these trouble makers are!"

"I dunno that sounds dangers to bring you, I don't want you to get hurt."

"It's fine! It's fine I swear! And I can say because that handsome detective said they are non espers.

"But he could be wrong." Li Mei said.

"He sounds pretty smart and besides your really strong! There's actually some information that a warehouse got damage recently! They say the vigilante was there!"

"Really!!" Li Mei said excitedly hoping up and down.

"Yeah really." Mara said with a fake smile.

"I'm sorry Li Mei! But you're our target. My Justice won't be ignored..."
