Everyone else is a trainer, but you are a swordsman?

After reading it, Feng put the information on the table and fell into deep thought.

He knew that this mission was very risky, but also very profitable, and Feng also believed in his own strength. However, he decided to make a detailed plan to ensure that nothing could go wrong.

planA, planB, planC...

Feng began sketching out the factory's floor plan on paper, thinking about the best entry and exit routes. He also had to consider various possible situations and come up with countermeasures.

Before he knew it, the clock had already reached one in the morning. Feng stretched himself, stretched his muscles, looked at his plan, and nodded with satisfaction. Then, he put away his drawings and lay down on the bed, ready to rest well and face the next challenge.

Before closing his eyes, Feng looked at the target's photo again and gently drew a cross on it with his hand.

"Liang Yi...die."

……

Saturday, at the Zhuqing City Investigating Officers' Division.

This place is located in the city center, with a constant flow of people and is extremely prosperous.

Not far away stood a towering building, the famous Zhuqing Building. The Investigator's Branch was an equally magnificent building, its glass exterior reflecting the sunlight and gleaming brightly.

Teams of search officers patrolled the perimeter of the building. Their uniformed steps, measured and orderly, gave off a sense of authority. Passersby on the street couldn't help but cast awe-inspiring glances at them.

At this time, a car made of special materials was driving out of the investigator's branch. The two people in the driver's seat and the passenger seat were talking about the work mission this time.

"Liang Yi, do you really not need me to apply for assistance for this mission?"

The speaker was a sturdy man with a strong build, bright eyes and a loud voice. The scar on his forehead gave him a hint of ferocity, but the investigator's uniform he wore gave him a sense of security.

"Brother Yamazaki, doing this will scare away the informant. We have been tracking this clue for a long time and we can't miss it again." A young man with thick hair and a confident smile on his face spread his hands and said.

"But your safety is more important. What if this is a trap?" Yamazaki looked at Ryoichi seriously and said stubbornly.

He used to have a very bad impression of Liang Yi.

When he was first transferred to Ryoichi's side, Yamazaki was still a little resentful. After all, he used to be a battle-hardened captain of investigators, but now he became the bodyguard of a kid who didn't know how he got in.

Many of those who were recruited without going through the formal process, like Liang Yi, were second-generation investigators with deep backgrounds who were brought in by someone else to gild their reputations. Therefore, many senior investigators secretly looked down on them.

But soon, Yamazaki changed his attitude.

The reasoning and investigation skills displayed by Liang Yi shocked many investigators including Yamazaki. He easily solved one mystery after another, and even Junsha tried to poach him several times.

Fortunately, the branch director resisted the pressure in time, so Liang Yi, this treasure, was not poached away.

"Don't worry, Brother Yamazaki. You're the one protecting me. My life is in your hands, haha." Liang Yi patted Yamazaki's shoulder and said with a smile, "Besides, even if it's a trap, we can follow the clues and find the person behind it."

Seeing Liang Yi's confident look, Yamazaki nodded helplessly: "That... okay, but in dangerous moments, you must hide behind and don't take risks."

"Alright, hurry up and open it. Time is almost up. I hope we can find the Nishikawa family's weakness this time..."

……

The two arrived at the agreed location, a remote factory in the suburbs.

After the car stopped, Yamazaki got out first, released his Infernape, and looked around vigilantly to see if there were any dangerous spots.

Liang Yi then opened the car door and got out. He observed the factory in front of him, wondering why the informant chose this as the transaction location and whether there was anything special about it.

The factory's exterior walls have peeled off, revealing the brick or concrete structure underneath, and the windows have been shattered, leaving only their frames. The metal structure outside has rusted due to long-term exposure to the air, showing reddish-brown rust spots.

As time went by, the surrounding plants invaded the factory area, and vines and weeds entangled the buildings and equipment. A few wild Ladas that were nibbling on the plants saw the car approaching, squeaked a few times, and then fled.

"Come out, Inspector Mongoose."

Ryoichi released his Pokémon, who was also his assistant.

As soon as Inspector Mongoose came out, he began to observe the building in front of him. He and Liang Yi were old partners and had solved many cases together. He had contributed to Liang Yi's achievements so far.

"Inspector Mongoose, check the ground."

After giving the Pokémon the order, Liangyi also lay down and looked at the soil and weeds on the ground nearby, especially the grass in front of the factory. His behavior seemed a little strange.

"Liang Yi, what are you doing?"

Although he was used to seeing Ryoichi's strange behavior, Yamazaki still felt a little confused and didn't know what he was doing.

"Brother Yamazaki, do you still remember the tragedy that happened not long ago?" As he said this, Liang Yi parted another patch of grass.

"Is it the one where the captain of Investigator Team 7, Shinji, died, nearly all the team members were wiped out, and the subsequent reinforcements Team 12 suffered heavy losses?"

Speaking of this, Yamazaki's face grew serious. "I heard that this case will also be included in the textbooks of the Investigator Training School as a negative example to warn future generations."

He used to be a captain and had experienced a lot, but it was rare for him to severely damage two teams of investigators at once, not to mention that the murderer was still at large.

"Yes, do you know who did that?"

"Oh, everyone knows that he's from the Nishikawa family, and some of the evidence was found by you, but... ah!"

Yamazaki sighed and hammered the tree next to him hard, scaring the few Mukles perched on it and causing them to fly away, leaving only a few leaves and feathers falling.

"But we can't catch him, right? Without Junsha and the army's cooperation, even if all the investigators in Zhuqing City were mobilized, they wouldn't be able to arrest him at the Xichuan family, not to mention that we're not united internally. We can only start from other places."

Liang Yi's tone was calm, as if he took the matter lightly. "We've been to the scene of the tragedy. Team 7 was destroyed by the combined efforts of several hunters, but Team 12 was different... They were killed in the explosion."

Yamazaki said with a look of sorrow: "Yes, it was such a huge pit, and many of our brothers were killed. Only a few of us used our Pokémon in time to defend it, so we were able to escape with our lives."

"Last time it was the Nishikawa family, and this time it's the Nishikawa family too. Now that we know their methods, we must be on guard against them in the future."

As he spoke, Inspector Mongoose had already finished searching the nearby underground and made an "OK" gesture to Liang Yi.

Yamazaki suddenly understood Ryoichi's intention: "Are you saying there might be a bomb underground?!"
