Shirou Emiya stands on the Terra continent

Just like Emiya's shop, Lao Chen often uses his private time to investigate cases that are difficult for the Imperial Guard Bureau to take over.

Obviously no one asked them to do this, or there was no need for them to do this to that extent, but the two of them still resolutely did it.

When you think about it, they seem quite similar, don't they?

Xingxiong fell into thought.

"Ahem... Commander Xingxiong, please stop making fun of yourself. I know a thing or two about the ghost tribe. There are no rumors about the ghost tribe here eating people. Most of them are just rumors spread by people who don't know much about them."

After hearing what Hoshiguma said, Emiya certainly couldn't laugh, so he could only explain the rumors he knew about the demon clan.

Ghosts in Longmen are still rare, but he knows two of them.

Ah Xing and Xing Xiong.

Compared to Axing, Xingxiong gives Emiya the feeling of being more of a demon. Axing is more like a funny guy wearing a demon mask than a demon.

The kind that enjoys snatching food from children.

When he first met Hoshiguma, Emiya clearly felt an inexplicable pressure.

But it could also be because it was the first time he saw a ghost tribe, so he was a little nervous.

After all, he grew up listening to related stories.

It was only after collecting some information and listening to Ah Xing's popular science that Emiya gained a certain understanding of the demon clan.

But it is only to a certain extent. After all, the physiques of each ghost clan are very different.

Ah Xing didn't explain this specifically, he just asked Emiya to remember it.

"Oh? You know a lot! And you even did a special investigation?"

Seeing Emiya's serious look, Hoshiguma stopped teasing him.

Everything needs to be done slowly. Once you are familiar with each other, you can start more topics.

While sorting out the documents, Hoshiguma chatted a lot with Emiya.

It had nothing to do with the Guards, Penguin Logistics, or the slums; it was just pure chit-chat.

Once the topic is opened up, even boring document processing work becomes interesting.

The two of them chatted like this and finished processing most of the documents they needed to process.

However, before the two of them could finish, the communicator on Xingxiong's waist rang.

He stopped what he was doing and answered the call.

After a few seconds, Xingxiong stood up and said, "Emiya, stop for a moment, there is a problem."

"Ah."

Without hesitation, Emiya put down the documents in his hand.

He had already reviewed the procedures for field work last night, and he had to wear a communicator, headphones, and tactical suit.

As for weapons, Emiya took the standard sword of the Imperial Guard Bureau and put it on his waist. Although it was not necessary, he could not ignore the regulations of the Imperial Guard Bureau.

Tactical suit...that is, protective gear. Emiya chose the protective gear for the legs, and he didn't plan to use the protective gear for the upper body.

The main reason is that it is quite inconvenient and wearing it makes you more vulnerable to attack.

Besides, that little bit of defense is even worse than the magic effect, so it’s better not to wear it.

Of course, I have confirmed this with Xingxiong and obtained his permission.

"Just follow me. Lao Chen will lead another team."

After looking at the equipment Emiya was wearing and making sure there was no problem, Hoshiguma signaled Emiya to follow him.

Although I don't know how powerful Emiya is, there will definitely be no problem for me to follow her as her bodyguard.

After all, the other party just went out with a sword, so he couldn't be a sniper or a magician, right?

And if Hoshiguma remembers correctly, Emiya's Originium skills are also related to swords, and he doesn't even need to bring a standard sword.

Just in case, Hoshiguma still asked Emiya to carry the sword with him.

Although everything can be transformed into Originium skills, there are times when they don't work. At this time, it is very convenient to have a sword.

"learn."

Once he entered the mission state, Emiya put aside other thoughts and focused his attention on listening to Hoshiguma's words and the content in the headphones.

Sitting in the Imperial Guards' car with Hoshiguma, Emiya felt a little nervous.

The first time I took the Guards’ car was when I was brought back by Shi Huaiya as a suspect, and this time I was going to... fight crime.

Helping the weak and suppressing the strong, isn't that a good thing? It's like being a partner of justice.

Thinking of this, Emiya felt less nervous.

Hoshiguma, who was sitting in the front seat, noticed through the rearview mirror that Emiya had adjusted his mentality very well, and then he focused his attention on the communication channel.

On the communication channel of the Guard Bureau, Shi Huaiya could be heard directing her team to surround the building where the suspect was.

We can only surround them. If we want to attack them, we have to wait for Chen Sir to come with her team.

The suspects were confirmed to be a group operation, among whom there were people who could use Originium techniques, and they were most likely infected.

There are about seven people in total, and currently we can confirm that two of them have long-range attack capabilities, both of whom are magicians.

Through fragmentary clues, even though he was no longer at the scene, Xingxiong was able to roughly piece together the information of the scene.

This will help her to understand the situation more quickly when she arrives at the scene.

"Emiya, if you hear me, please answer."

Chen's voice suddenly sounded in the communication channel.

"This is Emiya."

Suddenly hearing his own name in the headphones, Emiya was stunned for a moment, then responded quickly.

"Wait, follow the sniper team's actions, observe the internal conditions of the building, and report back at all times. Remember to change the communication channel."

Chen didn't say much and directly included Shigong in the sniper team.

During the mission, Chen Ke didn't care about other things, and he had to make use of all useful human support.

Identity exposed? That kind of thing doesn't matter anymore. I concealed my identity just to avoid being affected too much during the investigation. It's not a big deal if Emiya finds out.

She really didn't care, unlike Shirou who was still worried about his Longmen identity which had long been stamped with the green seal by Wei Yanwu.

"clear."

Emiya did not question Chen's command.

After all, it was something he could do.

Xingxiong on the side did not question Chen's intention. She trusted Chen's command. Chen must have her own intentions for commanding Emiya to go to the sniper team in this way.

"The sniper team under Lao Chen should be near her. When you arrive at the scene, just report to Lao Chen directly."

Worried that Emiya might not know the people in the sniper team, Hoshiguma gave a special reminder.

She didn't even mention that she could take him there later. After all, the situation at the scene was constantly changing, and she might have to take over later.

It's best to explain things clearly first.

"Ok."

Emiya nodded, and at the same time began to mobilize the magic power in his body.

Chen asked him to observe the movements inside the building, which definitely meant that he needed to strengthen his eyesight.

After repeated use, Emiya has become more and more adept at controlling this aspect.

After arriving at the destination, Xingxiong immediately took Emiya to find Chen to report, and then after sending Emiya to the sniper team, he left directly.

This is the front line, she is not a babysitter. Since Lao Chen has given the order, it means that Emiya can keep up with the pace of others.

Then she wouldn't have to worry so much.

"Emiya, can you see the situation inside?"

Chen asked, standing some distance away from the building.

After all, the suspect was hiding in a building, so Chen chose another building not far away to observe the situation inside.

She should have been on the first floor ready to command the attack at any time, but Shi Huaiya was already there, so she came over first to determine the situation inside.

"this…"

After Chen asked this question, several people nearby wondered if Chen Sir was making things difficult for the newcomer.

But on second thought, Sir Chen is not such a person, so the other party's Originium skills must be effective.

This place is a short distance away from the building, and due to some external factors, the image inside the building was not very clear when they used the telescope to observe it.

We have to rely on drones to search, but the opponent's magicians will not let drones observe them.

This was very troublesome, and they couldn't do anything to the other party for a while.

No rash action will be taken before the internal situation is understood.

"Sure, but I can't do anything if you hide."

Instead of agreeing confidently right away, Emiya took a look at the target building first.

It is a very ordinary 15-story building with a large number of floor-to-ceiling windows, but one of the floors looks a bit gray.

Although it affects the vision a bit, Emiya can still see what's inside if he looks carefully.

There were many figures, but only a few were standing.

"There are about ten people. One of them is looking at the situation nearby with a telescope, probably to confirm the location of the drone. Another one is looking at the location of Sir Shi Huaiya below."

Looking at the building, Emiya converted what he saw into text, giving Chen an idea of ​​the conditions inside.

"About ten people...?"

Chen was not angry about this ambiguous statement, but was quite satisfied.

They just haven't been able to get any information about the inside situation.

Because of the influence of the opponent's Originium skills, they should have to wait for more professional equipment to arrive, but for now, Emiya is enough.

After all, Chen had cooperated with Emiya for many nights, so he naturally knew that if the other party did not have enough confidence in this aspect, he would not agree to the matter.

If you can’t see it, you can’t see it. If you see it, you will naturally be told.

"Stay connected, I'll go down first."

After confirming that there were at least three hostages inside, Chen did not stay for too long. She asked Shigong to continue observing here while she took some people away.

She also changed Emiya's communication channel to connect directly to her side.

When preparing to leave, Chen first stopped, then hesitated for a moment before saying: "...If necessary, I will let you attack, remember to be ready at any time."

150 The trainee boss favored by Officer Chen

After saying that, Chen took some people away.

The people on the side didn't know why Chen mentioned this matter specifically, but they still prepared bows and crossbows.

After all, he only had a standard sword, and it was the most basic model. Could he really expect him to throw the sword at him?

Well, maybe they can, but it's also good to have a crossbow nearby for emergencies. Even if Emiya can't use it, it can be used as a backup.

The building they were in was diagonally opposite the suspect's building and there was some distance between them, but theirs was slightly shorter.

Coupled with some weather factors, to be honest, it is difficult for them to attack the people inside.

At most, it's just an attack to interfere with the opponent.

This position is mainly practical for observing the interior of the opposite side, and there is no other choice, after all, other places are lower.

Boom──

The drone that just took off outside the building was immediately destroyed.

"In addition to the two people on guard, there is also a magician who is destroying the drone."

Although it was only for a moment, Emiya still caught a flash of fire.
