Toaru Kagaku no Railgun Manga Chapter 112

Discernment (洞察) is the 112th chapter of the Toaru Kagaku no Railgun manga series, released on January 27th 2019 in Monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh.

Synopsis
Kuroko cautiously investigates the other escape vehicle after it has crashed into a tree. Not knowing whether Uiharu is still inside or not, she decides to pick the car's lock, only to be forced to step back upon anticipating an enemy attack. True enough, Tsurigane from Kimi's group appears in the nearby trees while one of their accomplices runs off. As she discards the tools she had prepared for an encounter with Mikoto, Tsurigane prepares to fight the Teleporter.

Immediately, Kuroko shows that she is already aware of Tsurigane's ability to detect her power in advance and uses a concrete tile to block an attack prepared by her enemy. However, she is unable to comprehend Tsurigane's superhuman ability to climb vertically and jump between trees at blinding speeds. Kuroko also discovers that her enemy uses throwing knives that carry a potent anesthetic that immobilized the escaping accomplice from earlier in moments from just one cut.

Tsurigane is amazed of Kuroko quickly identifying her ability as AIM Watcher which enables the observation of AIM diffusion fields, but is certain that this knowledge will not help her win. She then follows Kuroko as she teleports away and picks up a stick. Using the seemingly desperate move to her advantage, Tsurigane leaps onto Kuroko, predicting her to teleport a short distance closer to her, only to find a stone being teleported instead. Shortly after, Kuroko strikes Tsurigane with the stick.
