In this crossover anime, I fight against the supernatural in my everyday world.

My imagination is too limited.

but...

Yotsuya Miko seemed to finally understand why Yohoshi's adaptability and strength were so much higher than hers, even though they were both psychics and exorcists.

In Rio Futaba's analysis, the materialization of the soul is a capacity that leans more towards idealism than materialism.

I hadn't developed more of my abilities before because I was completely limited by my own imagination.

But no normal person can compare to Ye Xing.

This guy was a weirdo who tried to devour evil spirits the first time he awakened his Yin-Yang Eyes.

And he actually ate it!

How could a normal person possibly do such a thing?

.......

Meanwhile, in a Metropolitan Police Department vehicle.

"Drive faster!"

Sitting in the passenger seat, Soichiro Yagami urged the Metropolitan Police Department member driving the car, his square face full of anxiety and his heart heavy.

Unexpectedly, something happened.

The Kyoto City Museum, which houses the famous sword Onimaru Kunitsuna, was brazenly invaded by two mysterious individuals.

Even Soichiro Yagami, who has decades of experience in criminal investigation, has never seen such an arrogant criminal.

The fact that they dared to covet a renowned sword of Onimaru Kunitsuna's caliber is secondary.

The key question is, didn't the other party consider how they would escape even if they stole Onimaru Kunitsuna?

At this time, the Metropolitan Police Department had mobilized all its personnel, and not only the Kyoto City Museum, but also several surrounding streets were completely blocked off.

This is what is meant by "unable to escape even with wings".

Even so, Soichiro Yagami still had a bad feeling.

Surveillance footage from the Kyoto City Museum shows that one of the intruders was dressed exactly like the mysterious person he had seen at the Kyoto City Kindergarten.

As for whether it is the same person, it is too early to say.

But if it really is the same person as the criminal codenamed "Masked," and this time, the perpetrator has an accomplice...

Recalling that day, the white-clad woman he had seen—exaggeratedly tall and exuding a chilling, terrifying aura—Yagami Souichirou felt a heavy weight in his heart.

His thick eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and his eyes, behind his square-framed glasses, showed a very complex and hesitant expression.

In the end, Soichiro Yagami made up his mind, picked up the walkie-talkie, pressed the call button, and spoke in a deep voice.

"The Metropolitan Police Department's heavy weapons unit is fully mobilized."

"The team will be led by... Kiyoaki Akoya."

A reply came through the walkie-talkie.

"Understood, Commander Night God."

Souichirou Yagami sighed heavily, looking out the window at the street rushing by, wondering whether the decision he had just made was right or wrong.

Kiyoaki Akoya is the strongest fighter in Kyoto, and even in the entire Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department of Sakura Province.

Height 191cm, weight 114kg.

With such a powerful physique, it can practically be called a humanoid tank.

In addition, based on the Metropolitan Police Department's arrest techniques, he developed an unrestricted fighting style that he studied for many years.

Kiyoaki Akoya is the undisputed strongest person in the Metropolitan Police Department.

However, Souichirou Yagami does not like the other person.

Rumors circulate that in his spare time, Kiyoaki Akoya often seeks out criminals on his own and uses vigilante justice to severely injure or even kill them.

However, because there was no clear evidence to prove this, and because the higher-ups in the Metropolitan Police Department had always been inclined to protect this strongest person in the Metropolitan Police Department, even Soichiro Yagami, as the head of the Criminal Investigation Bureau, was unable to control him.

At that meeting, he mentioned procedural justice and substantive justice.

In Yagami Soichiro's view, Akoya Kiyoaki's actions were even more serious than those of "Masked".

At the very least, the kidnappers killed by "Masked" were all armed and mentally unstable thugs, which was unavoidable for the safety of the hostages.

However, Kiyoaki Aguya sees all criminals the same, regardless of the severity of their crimes.

This guy is an extremely dangerous individual.

If this incident hadn't involved the famous sword Onimaru Kunitsuna, Yagami Soichiro would have been unwilling to send out a monster like Akoya Kiyoaki.

.......

On the other side, inside the Kyoto City Museum.

"Time is up."

Rio Futaba's calculated seven-minute time limit has been reset to zero.

Yotsuya Miko knew that at any moment, the Metropolitan Police Department's forces could launch a frontal assault and storm into the museum.

Her fair palms were sweating with nervousness.

"You can stay here."

Yohoshi gently squeezed Yotsuya Miko's hand, then patted her head, as if teasing a small animal.

Although her pretty face flushed red, she did not flinch, but just muttered a complaint.

"Honestly, they're treating me like a child."

Immediately afterwards, Yotsuya Miko added in a low voice.

"be careful."

"rest assured."

Ye Xing smiled, walked out of the long passage, waved his hand, and said a very arrogant sentence in an extremely calm tone.

"Ordinary people in the Metropolitan Police Department are not on the same level as me at all."

"This guy..."

Watching Yoru's figure gradually disappear into the distance along the corridor, Yotsuya Miko shook her head helplessly and muttered to herself.

"He's really arrogant about his own abilities."

......

As Ye Xing walked out of the corridor and returned to the main exhibition hall, she heard hurried footsteps in the corridor outside.

And the sound of the bolt being pulled.

"Heavy weapons troops...?"

Night Star was not surprised by this.

His outfit this time was exactly the same as last time.

It would be incredibly foolish for Soichiro Yagami to send out those ordinary Metropolitan Police Department members who were just wearing bulletproof vests and carrying ordinary pistols.

A few seconds later.

Wearing heavy full-body bulletproof vests, along with riot helmets and riot shields, armed to the teeth, the Metropolitan Police Department SWAT team, equipped with a full range of professional gear, rushed in simultaneously from several entrances to the main exhibition hall.

The dark muzzle of the gun was pointed at Ye Xing, who was standing there.

"Don't move! Raise your hands!"

Surrounded by more than ten special police officers, Ye Xing merely glanced at them and spoke softly.

"Your Criminal Investigation Bureau Chief, Soichiro Yagami, didn't come this time?"

"I am here."

As the dull sound rang out, Soichiro Yagami, wearing a bulletproof vest, appeared behind one of the special police teams.

Logically speaking, a high-ranking official of his level would not need to take the risk of going directly to the scene.

However, Soichiro Yagami had a lingering sense of foreboding.

Even though the entire Metropolitan Police Department was mobilized this time...

Can it really stop "masks"?

Was the tall woman in white I saw last time some kind of hypnotic technique that caused me to hallucinate?

Or is it that there really are strange things in this world that ordinary people don't know about?

Soichiro Yagami's gaze first swept over the display case of the replica Onimaru Kunitsuna in the very center of the exhibition hall.

Seeing the replica still lying quietly within the protection of the bulletproof glass, he visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Xing noticed this subtle change in expression and thought it was an interesting detail.

Could it be...

Soichiro Yagami was unaware that the Onimaru Kunitsuna displayed in the showcase was just a replica.

To say it was a deliberately faked performance would be far too perfect.

Besides, what reason would the other party have to do this?

"It's really you."

As Yoshinori pondered, Yagami Souichirou looked directly into his eyes and spoke in a deep voice.

"The commotion you caused this time is no less than the last time we met."

Soichiro Yagami is now confirmed.

The "masked" person in front of me is the same one I saw last time at the Kyoto Municipal Kindergarten.

That kind of unwavering gaze, even when facing a gun, is something that ordinary people simply cannot possess.

"Chief Yagami, we meet again."

Yosei's voice, like her eyes, was devoid of any emotional fluctuation. She simply looked directly into Yagami Souichirou's eyes and spoke slowly.
