"Stop right there. Give me your number first. The boss didn't tell me anyone else was coming to this place."

At the back entrance on the first floor of the mall, a thug with a cigarette in his mouth turned his head to look at Akihara Kazumitsu, who was fully equipped.

Akihara coughed lightly and adjusted his voice.

"It's me, 07."

Hearing Akihara's voice, the guy seemed to breathe a slight sigh of relief. "I remember the boss sent you to the monitoring room, didn't he? Why aren't you staying there quietly? What are you doing here?"

"It hasn't even started yet, and I forgot my cigarettes. Can I borrow one?"

Akihara answered in this way because when he was taking off "07's" clothes, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the other person's fingers and teeth. The yellowed fingertips and pigmented teeth both carried a strong smell of smoke.

The man chuckled.

"If the boss finds out you've abandoned your post, you can expect him to come after you."

As he said this, he looked down and rummaged through the pocket of his tactical vest for a cigarette pack. "Just you wait..."

The moment he uttered those words, Akihara seized the opportunity to quietly step forward and strike him hard on the temple with the butt of his rifle.

However, the calculation failed.

Qiu originally intended to launch a surprise attack while the other party was distracted, but to his surprise, the thug seemed to sense the subtle change in the air and, with his high level of alertness, instantly turned his head.

With a "bang," the blow landed on his forehead, but missed a vital area.

System: ...Don't expect to succeed in a sneak attack if you're a martial arts idiot!

The man clutched his forehead and staggered backward, but he was not knocked down as expected.

"You're not 07 at all!" The thug glared, gritted his teeth, grabbed the pistol hanging on his waist, and was about to fire.

"Oh dear, I didn't expect it to still be so clumsy. I was hoping you could sleep soundly until the finale." Qiu Yuan sighed with regret.

The other side had already pulled the trigger, and the bullet flew towards Akihara, about to pierce his head—

However, the expected bloody scene from the R18G did not occur. The bullet appeared to have penetrated Akihara's forehead, but in reality, it disappeared. Akihara remained unharmed, standing firmly in place.

"Alright, now it's my turn." Akihara smiled and stretched out his hand, as if to snap his fingers.

"3, 2, 1, bang~"

With Qiu Yuan's "bang" and a crisp snap of his fingers, a bright light shone through the gaps in the thug's clothes, then exploded into a magnificent firework in his terrified eyes.

"HuaQ! The whole thing almost ended just now! Don't make me open the system space at the extreme distance again!" the system roared in Qiuyuan's mind.

Ignoring the system's roar, Akihara stepped forward and kicked the dark-skinned man. Seeing no reaction, he hesitated before crouching down and reaching out to check his breath.

"Thank goodness, I wasn't blown up." Akihara finally seemed relieved and withdrew his hand, patting his chest. "I almost caused a massacre for Thermal-EX. By Jeragand's grace, I repent."

Although he said that, his actions showed no remorse whatsoever. He quickly looted the other man's weapons and ammunition—including the one still warm in his hand—and threw them all into his system space.

It's a pity. If I could sell these things, I wouldn't have to live such a difficult life.

System: Put away your dangerous thoughts, thank you.

After doing all this, Akihara took away the walkie-talkie that the other party had survived the explosion.

"Let's go, let's take care of the next one."

……

In the crowd, Shuichi Akai kept his head slightly lowered, trying to avoid drawing attention to himself. In reality, he was deep in thought, considering how to resolve the current crisis.

There were five robbers on the third floor where they were located: one mastermind and the other four scattered around. The mastermind was armed with a submachine gun, which appeared to be an IMI Mini-Uzi Compact. It had just had its magazine changed and was fully loaded; the standard magazine capacity is 25 rounds.

The other four henchmen were armed with revolvers, Smith & Wesson Model 690 “Shadow Hawk”, with a magazine capacity of 7 rounds.

He glanced at the mastermind's position; he was pacing back and forth in front of the broken French windows, occasionally glancing down and speaking into the walkie-talkie. As a sniper, Shuichi Akai's first thought was that this position was highly advantageous for sniping.

If his team successfully snipes the enemy's mastermind with the most firepower, he is confident that, with Miyano Akemi's cooperation, they can control the other four.

He subtly moved his finger, stopping it above the communicator.

But then, he suddenly hesitated. After a long while, he lowered his finger, ultimately choosing to wait and make his move.

He glanced sideways at Akemi Miyano beside him.

If the FBI shows too much obvious involvement in this incident, it will likely arouse suspicion within the organization immediately.

Miyano Akemi seemed to notice his gaze, and turned her head slightly, returning him with a reassuring smile, silently telling him not to worry about her.

He curled his fingers where no one could see.

At this point, the mastermind became noticeably agitated for some reason, and his voice became much louder.

"07, keep an eye on the monitoring, reply as soon as you receive this!"

monitor……

Shuichi Akai raised an eyebrow, looked around at the ceiling of the third-floor lobby, and finally spotted the red-glowing camera in the upper left corner next to him.

Whatever you choose to do next, the first thing is to prevent the other party from taking control of the overall situation.

So he tapped his cuffs lightly, alternating between long and short taps, which was the Morse code "monitor".

……

Akihara repeated the same tactic, taking down three more robbers in various corners of the mall.

Just as he clapped his hands, preparing to check the surveillance footage again to see if there were any remaining suspects, the screen flickered briefly before returning to normal.

"Hmm?" Akihara keenly sensed something was wrong. He looked up and searched for the nearest camera, waving his hand from below, but the live surveillance footage was empty; there was no trace of him.

"This has been hacked. They're using a loop of old footage instead of live feeds. If you were sitting in the monitoring room, you might not even notice anything amiss," Qiu Yuan commented. "Quite impressive hacking skills, and very clever at that."

The already irritated system erupted in fury. "Damn it, who hacked my surveillance system! You wait, if I don't throw a few viruses back at you on my way here, I'll follow Akihara and Hikaru in the footsteps of my father!"

Akihara:……
