I adopted a child demon from the Gap, and I'm a special agent for the Bureau of Supernatural Ab

"Okay, goodbye Mr. Li and tide."

After saying goodbye and parting ways, Li Cheng carried the peacefully sleeping Xi on his back and slowly walked home. Pedestrians came and went on the street, and Li Cheng walked among them, not like a decisive member of an action team, but more like an ordinary old father, no different from the people around him.

However, beneath his slightly narrowed eyelids, his mind continued to wander.

Just now, when Mr. Aleister stopped, his gaze lingered very noticeably on Touma Kamijou. Later, when he said goodbye, he also frequently glanced at Touma. He clearly has an unusually high level of interest in Touma.

There's probably something wrong here...

The very addition of Kamijou Touma was already suspicious. However, by examining Kamijou Touma himself, neither Kiritsugu Emiya nor Mikiya Kokutou could find any valuable clues. Kamijou Touma is indeed just a simple, righteous young man. He is the kind of righteous young man who can raise Kiritsugu Emiya's favorability to over 80 after spending just a short time with him. There is absolutely no problem with him.

The only interesting thing is that he took in Index, the daughter of the president of the National Magic Association of the Free Alliance, a girl with an extraordinary memory who claimed to have preserved forbidden magic of the Free Alliance. However, after careful investigation, Kiritsugu Miyazaki discovered that the girl was just wandering around to escape her family's arranged marriage. She unexpectedly met Touma Kamijou, and Touma fought desperately to protect her from a powerful magician, winning her heart and deciding to stay. Meanwhile, her family inexplicably abandoned the arranged marriage and decided to test whether this young man was worthy of being Index's fiancé.

It's so absurd, it's totally like a light novel story. Especially since Touma Kamijou himself is completely unaware that he has become a so-called "potential fiancé," and he foolishly takes Index's staying as a matter of course, with an extremely innocent and herbivorous expression on his face, which makes Kiritsugu Emiya and Li Cheng, who are reviewing the data, feel a sense of exasperation.

However, since this is someone else's family matter, although they felt that this way of getting along was very annoying, as elders, Li Cheng and the others would not interfere rashly.

Given Mr. Aleister's keen interest in Touma Kamijou, could it be related to his efforts to get Touma into Team Six?

Li Cheng continued to ponder.

Aleister is the founder and president of the now globally influential Aleister Group, a vast business conglomerate spanning multiple industries including construction, entertainment, military, and information technology. In terms of wealth alone, perhaps only a nation-state can rival him.

The amusement park that tide always loved to go to was owned by the Aleister Group, and it was a very popular type of place; otherwise, tide wouldn't have been drawn to go there time and time again.

Li Cheng's team, the Sixth Group, had once come into contact with Aleister when he went to New Tokyo for a business presentation. As the strongest action team in all of Japan, the Sixth Group was assigned close protection. It was at that time that each of them obtained Aleister's contact information, and Li Cheng even developed a very good relationship with him, to the point that they would greet each other if they passed by now.

It was during that security operation that he encountered a guy in a red bodysuit who was incredibly talkative and obnoxious, seemingly on a mission to assassinate Aleister. He single-handedly stopped him, and after a four-hour-long battle, he finally managed to break the guy's limbs and subdue him, sustaining numerous injuries in the process.

As a result, he couldn't be killed and had to be temporarily locked up. The next day, he ran away. Before leaving, he stole a bottle of good wine that Li Cheng had gotten from Aleister, threw a grenade and blew up the toilet of the sixth division, spraying feces and urine everywhere in the building.

"..."

Forget it, stop thinking about that jerk.

In any case, Aleister definitely knows some inside information that the Sixth Group can't find out. Li Cheng isn't good at communicating in this regard, so I'll talk to Kiritsugu Emiya later and ask him to think about how to handle this matter.

Rubbing his temples with a slight headache, Li Cheng suddenly had a feeling that all sorts of troubles were piling up lately. Could it be that something big was about to happen?

Big news, huh...

A sudden jolt went through him, but he couldn't explain why he felt this way. Li Cheng paused for a moment, then shook his head and continued walking forward, thinking that he shouldn't dwell on such things and that living his life well was what he should be doing now.

The residential complex where Li Cheng lived was already visible on the side of the road ahead.

Li Cheng carried the sleeping tide on his back, walking slowly towards home step by step. The dim streetlights cast long, long shadows of the two of them.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the city, in front of a building under construction, another group of people were slowly moving forward.

"B, we have reached the designated location and have not detected any movement."

"G, we have reached the high ground and there is no suspicious activity."

"Y, the trap has been installed and is ready to be activated at any time."

"J, target locked, 7th floor, third floor, coordinates 57, 23, please provide instructions."

Listening to the reports from his teammates through his earpiece, the young captain looked up at the quiet, motionless building before him, took a deep breath, and then said solemnly:

"Listen to my instructions, prepare to advance. Everyone, pay attention. This fugitive named Kirei Kotomine is extremely dangerous. He has a history of single-handedly taking on two A-rank masters and successfully killing them. We must not underestimate this opponent. We're here to arrest someone, don't throw yourselves into the abyss."

"Haha, Captain, you're still so nervous."

"Don't worry, we're the fifth group, and you're one of the top A-level members, Captain. How could we be afraid of a fugitive?"

"Yes, after running for so long, the other party must be a scaredy-cat by now. We can take them out easily!"

"Don't worry, Captain, we won't lose. We've been preparing for this operation for a long time. This time, we'll prove with a great victory that we're no worse than Group Six!"

These guys really have absolutely no sense of crisis...

The captain sighed helplessly, wondering if he was being too nervous. However, he quickly composed himself and began issuing commands into the communicator.

"Since you're so confident, let's begin. They shouldn't have spotted us yet; a quick advance should take them out quickly. If you're ready, let's move out!"

"Understood!" ×N.

"Alright, let's move out!"

Section 47, Chapter 4: Construction Site Operations

(This chapter contains slightly intense content, please be aware.)

"B, the first floor has been searched and no one is there. Proceed to the second floor."

"Y, the fifth floor check is complete, no one is there. Now proceed to the third floor."

"G, the high ground is normal, with no suspicious persons or phenomena."

"J, everything at the intersection is normal, there are no suspicious circumstances."

"Alright, keep pushing. B, you lie in ambush on the second floor. Y, you go to the fourth floor and prepare the demolition point. J and G, keep an eye on the intersection. I'll rush in through the window in a bit, and then B and Y will coordinate with me to take them down in one go! Remember, it's best if we capture them alive, try not to kill them. Only by capturing them alive can we show the strength of our fifth group."

Calmly issuing orders over the communication channel, the captain walked to the window, looked at the sealed-off room across the way, and felt a surge of excitement.

Capturing an A-level fugitive alive is no small feat. Even the Sixth Team, comprised of two A-level members, can only kill an A-level enemy; they lack the ability to capture them alive. They even recently made a fool of themselves when an A-level criminal escaped and severely injured one of their rookies.

Hmph, once this operation is successful, you'll all be crushed by our Fifth Group!

Our fifth group is the best!

"B, we have arrived at the designated point."

"Y, we have arrived at the designated point."

"G, the high ground is normal, with no suspicious persons or phenomena."

"J, everything at the intersection is normal, there are no suspicious circumstances."

“Very good,” the captain said, suppressing his excitement and trying to remain as calm as possible. “Then we’re ready. G, J, keep an eye on the surroundings. We’re about to go in.”

"Understood!" ×2.

"Haha, J is usually quite talkative, why is he so reserved today?"

J remained silent and did not speak during the communication.

"Alright, quiet, Y," the captain said earnestly, staring at the window opposite. "Let's move out immediately. Don't get distracted, just listen to my commands!"

"3!"

As he spoke, the captain bent over.

"2!"

His body lunged forward.

"1!"

The captain of the fifth group leaped from the balcony, smashing through the thin brick wall and landing on the third floor. Simultaneously, the ceiling and floor exploded, and two other people burst out. The three instantly formed a pincer movement, charging swiftly towards the fugitive, Kirei Kotomine, displayed on the thermal imaging camera in the middle of the third floor.

"Just surrender, Kirei Kotomine, you're surrounded!"

"Oh dear, this is really strange. Aren't you the ones who are surrounded? Everyone in Group 5."

"Ah, who are you?"

Standing in the dark building was not the tall man named Kirei Kotomine from the records, but an orange-haired youth wearing a purple shirt and grinning.

"I'm Ryunosuke Uryu. Hello, everyone from Group 5."

This person, ah, he knows this person.

The captain of the fifth group suddenly realized something.

He was one of the other prisoners who escaped during the destruction caused by the Beyonders, besides Kirei Kotomine. He was a mentally ill serial killer. Because of his mental problems, he was spared the death penalty after his lawyer argued his case, and was only sentenced to life imprisonment. He was a complete madman, feared by everyone in the prison.

He's just an ordinary person, not even a B-rank, so why is he here? Could it be... that they've teamed up?

"Oh my, the action team is really smart. Did they already realize they'd been tricked? That's right, we've teamed up, the three of us."

Wait, three?

"exactly."

A completely emotionless voice rang out from the stairwell.

The captain turned around and saw Kirei Kotomine's tall figure slowly walking up the stairs, his face calm, but the few drops of blood on his hands were so clear and glaring.

"Hmph, I must say you've been quite careless. I found an opening so easily."

Another voice appeared at the large hole the captain had previously created. Countless insects gathered at the entrance of the hole and eventually transformed into a withered, stunted old man.

The captain knew him too; he was a Class B fugitive named Matou Zouken, a magician who controlled insects, not particularly strong, and a scumbag who enjoyed torturing young girls. This guy was quite famous in the New Tokyo Special District because he was caught red-handed by Tokiomi Tohsaka, who had already made a major breakthrough in martial arts, when he tried to harass Sakura Tohsaka, the second daughter of the wealthy Tohsaka family. The scene was horrific, and it was truly remarkable that he was brought back to life.

Incidentally, this equally inhuman criminal was also rescued by a spontaneous team of freedom-loving and peace-loving lawyers, who spared him the death penalty and only imprisoned him. The reason given was that he was a lonely old man who lacked love and care; he only wanted affection from children and accidentally hurt them, but in reality, he still loved them very much.

That was a rare occurrence. The fifth group leader thought it would have been much better if the sixth group had been the ones to arrest him.

"How did you end up here? Where's G? Wasn't she at the high point?"

Y suddenly shouted in alarm and anger.
