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

"A fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl in the prime of her life, ignoring her own professors at her college, comes to you every day, crossing half the campus. To provide guidance and training? You're kidding me, not even a ghost would believe such a clumsy lie."

In response to the boy's rebuttal, Ji Wen, being an elder and well-informed, scoffed and looked at the boy, whose face had turned red, with disdain.

"No, no, it's not true, it really isn't, I didn't, I didn't..."

"Alright, let's put everything else aside. Kid, you're a martial artist, and now is the time for you to improve and your body to reach its peak," Ji Wen's expression suddenly turned serious as he spoke earnestly, "You understand what I mean, right?"

"T-Teacher?"

The boy was a little taken aback, but he quickly recovered, composed himself, and waited for the teacher's next admonition.

"Having sex with your girlfriend occasionally is fine if it's just for fun and to maintain your relationship, but if it ruins your health, then you're putting the cart before the horse, you understand?"

Ha, what's coming? Send? What was it again...?

The boy was stunned by Ji Wen's words. Then, he quickly recalled some topics that his roommates had occasionally mentioned that he found extremely shameful and unhealthy. After understanding what had happened, he was instantly dumbfounded, while Ji Wen had already waved and disappeared from the scene.

This teacher can be surprisingly unserious sometimes...

Watching the other person's departing figure, the boy felt a mix of emotions. Then, glancing at the clock and realizing it was getting late, he quickly ran back to his dormitory to change his clothes before heading to the school's training ground.

As the undisputed number one in the school, the boy was assigned a separate training ground so he could focus on his training. He rarely used this place normally, but recently, because of a certain girl, he started frequenting it.

"Cheng, good evening."

The girl, dressed in simple training clothes and with her long hair tied in a ponytail, sat quietly in the training field. She stood up and smiled at the boy as he walked in.

"Ah, yes, yes, good evening."

Thinking of what Ji Wen had said earlier, the boy felt a little embarrassed and uncomfortable. He greeted the girl quietly and walked into the training field.

"Then, today I will continue to teach you how to escape when the enemy gets close."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."

Footwork, movements, awareness—the boy taught the girl as simply as possible what he knew, and she listened attentively and practiced. For a time, the two were like master and apprentice, conducting ordinary combat instruction and training.

"Therefore, in this situation, you must do your best to ensure that your dominant hand is not grabbed. You can use your shoulder or your non-dominant hand to block it. In short, the most important thing is to block it once and then quickly create distance..."

"Uh-huh."

"As a magician, although there may be occasional unexpected events, close combat is definitely not advisable in most cases. Ranged combat is what you should be doing. Therefore, what you need to master most is how to distance yourself when the enemy gets close."

"Uh-huh."

"In addition, your physical fitness is not very good. After thinking about it, I think it's better to reduce the learning of large, sweeping moves and just learn some simple combat techniques."

"Uh-huh."

No, that's not right, something doesn't feel right!

Sitting on a bench at the edge of the training field, the boy felt that his explanation was about to reach a point where he could no longer continue.

He was trying to give the girl some proper guidance, but she gradually moved closer to him during his explanation. Although she still looked like she was listening attentively, the subtle touch beside her and the faint fragrance he could smell made the boy feel quite uncomfortable.

What's wrong with me? I promised to teach her self-defense, so why am I being so indecisive?

"Cheng, why aren't you saying anything?"

A questioning voice came from beside her, and then she placed her hand on her forehead.

"Is he sick?"

Is this what a girl's hand feels like? Slightly soft, and a little warm...

The boy's foot cracked the already fragile ground, and he leaped into the air, nearly crashing into the ceiling. She was startled by his movement and froze in place, while he staggered back several steps, his face flushed, and remained motionless for a long time before finally recovering, panting heavily.

"Um, Cheng?"

"I...I...I..."

What should I say in this situation?! Can someone teach me?!

"Pfft, isn't that a bit of an overreaction? Or is Cheng actually the type who looks tough but is actually quite timid?"

Before he could figure out how to react, she burst out laughing and looked at him with an amused expression.

"I...I'm not a coward!"

Although he didn't know how the girl came to the conclusion that he was a coward, the boy was still quite dissatisfied with such a comment and retorted, forgetting his previous embarrassment.

"Really? So Cheng means he's very brave?" She smiled, then, as if remembering something, she continued, "I remember now, back in the village, didn't you hear my dad tell a ghost story once, and you ran away in fright before you even finished half of it, and you were too scared to turn off the lights to sleep that night?"

"What? You still remember that? Don't underestimate me, I'm not the same person I used to be!"

"Really? Then I'm planning to go see a horror movie this weekend. Do you dare to come along? If you dare, I'll consider taking back what I called a coward, okay, you coward Cheng."

"Who's the coward Cheng? Of course I dare to come! You wait, I'll definitely record the whole thing, the way you get scared!"

"Hehe, then I'll have to see who gets scared, you coward Cheng."

"Hey, don't call me Coward Cheng!"

Actually, that was the first time the boy had ever explored the academy's recreation area since entering the academy. In the past, he had devoted almost all his attention to training, to the point that he had never thought about entertainment. It was her invitation that gave him his first complete tour of the academy area.

Although he never quite understood why accompanying her to see a horror movie, which was supposed to be a test of courage, ended up being just spending the whole day playing with her in the school city.

After a long time had passed, when the boy looked back on it, he realized that it was the first time she had invited him out to play in the school city.

Section 207, Chapter 10: Dreams on the Way

"Starting today, you are a member of the Third Action Team of the Special Science Department, Central District Branch. I am the team leader, you can just call me Brother Xiao."

Inside the austere and simple building of the action group, the boy nervously looked at the tall and imposing man in front of him, while the man smiled very friendly and extended his hand to the boy.

"Don't be nervous. This isn't an academy, there aren't so many rules. Just do your best and everything will be fine. I know you, Li Cheng. You are the best student in this cohort, even the top students from previous cohorts couldn't compete with you. This is exactly the kind of talent we need right now."

Grasping the boy's calloused, hard hand, the man who called himself Brother Xiao paused for a moment, then couldn't help but show an expression of admiration.

From a martial arts student at the academy to a member of the Special Operations Department, four years have honed the young man, now 20 years old, into a stronger and more resilient individual.

His heart pounded, overwhelmed by an overwhelming surge of excitement. His long-held dream had finally come true through his own efforts, and a brighter future slowly unfolded in his heart.

The captain, who called himself Brother Xiao, guided the boy through the entire work process, including key points of daily tasks and information about the enemy and wanted criminals. The boy listened attentively, memorizing all the important details, which pleased Brother Xiao, who already admired him even more.

After a full day of getting familiar with their work, at 7 p.m., the normal time to leave work, some excited teenagers returned to their rented rooms, and as soon as they stepped into the room, they smelled a fragrance.

"That's really slow. It seems the first-place student is highly valued by the leaders."

The girl sitting at the dining table leaned on the table and smiled as she watched the boy walk in.

"Sorry, I did work a little late today to familiarize myself with the work."

The boy walked into the house with a smile, sniffed the aroma of food in the air, and then smiled.

"It's steamed fish."

"After all, this is your favorite dish, isn't it?" The girl smiled as she got up, went into the kitchen, and brought out a bowl of rice. "See how good I am to you."

"Yes, you're the best, the best in the whole world."

The boy smiled as he sat down at the dining table, a smile creeping onto his lips as he looked at the delicious-looking food laid out on the table.

"Thank you for your hard work."

"Stop with the nonsense. After you finish eating, just do the dishes. It's your turn to cook tomorrow!"

"Yes, yes, yes—"

The boy and girl are currently living together.

Of course, their relationship was a very platonic one, a purely platonic cohabitation where they slept in separate beds as friends.

At first, the boy planned to rent a house by himself. With his first-place scholarship in the school and some prize money from inter-academy competitions, he was not short of money and could easily rent a house even in a bustling big city.

But at this time, the girl found him and asked him to rent a house together.

It has to be said that at the very beginning, the boy had some ulterior motives, but the girl directly told him that she didn't get along with her roommate, that there was no one she could trust to live with, and that she was also unwilling to rent a house alone, which is why she found the boy.

The boy was a little disappointed, but also a little happy. It has to be said that humans are truly contradictory creatures.

The Central District, located on the outskirts of the central city of the Huaxia Alliance, is a relatively active area with a large number of factories and migrant workers. Its inherent complexity determines the immense difficulty of the Special Science work, and the boy thus begins his tiring and painful working hours.

Weekends off were simply not a thing. Getting two or three days off a month was considered a miracle. Even leaving get off work at 7 p.m. was difficult to guarantee, and he often had to work until midnight or even all night and continue the next day. If it weren't for the fact that the boy's physical abilities far exceeded those of humans, such a workload would be absolutely unbearable, although even so, he still felt extremely miserable.

The girl who chose to join the Special Sciences Department with the boy went to another department and they rarely met. However, whenever the boy was tired from working at night, someone would always be asked to bring him dinner or a late-night snack, and without exception, it was the girl who prepared it. This touched the boy deeply, but it also brought cruel smiles to the faces of his senior colleagues who worked with him from time to time.

After the initial tedious and tiring daily work, the boy's figure finally began to become active once the real tasks appeared.

In his first operation, to capture a thief with the ability to fly, he chased the suspect for several kilometers, damaging the exteriors of many buildings, before finally apprehending him. Then, he was reprimanded for an hour in the office by his captain, who had been the subject of numerous complaints.

In the second operation, to deal with a drug trafficker armed with foreign forces, the boy and his squad, in coordination with three other teams, launched a surprise attack. That operation was anticipated by the enemy, turning into a very difficult battle. However, he turned the tide by brute force destroying the load-bearing pillars of the enemy building, thereby destroying the enemy's entire base.

In the third operation, he single-handedly defeated three powerful A-level escaped exile martial artists and brought them to justice. One of them succumbed to his injuries during the battle, and the boy himself paid the price by spending a full month in the hospital.

The fourth operation successfully dismantled a large child organ trafficking ring. According to official accounts, its leader refused to surrender and was killed in battle, but some sources indicate that he was beaten into a pulp by an extremely angry young man, completely losing his human form.

The fifth time, the sixth time...

For over a year, every operation the boy participated in yielded results. Possessing formidable strength and intuition, he fought with exceptional bravery against various enemies and consistently emerged victorious. Even when he frequently suffered severe injuries, he always managed to recover and return to the front lines within two months. As a result, he began to attract increasing attention.

Special Affairs Division, Central District Branch Building, Inside the Supervisory Office.

"To be honest, based on the results you've already achieved, you're good enough to lead an action team on your own," the inspector in charge of review and supervision said slowly, looking at the quiet young man in front of him. "But you yourself are also aware of how much unnecessary damage has been caused by you in these operations."

"Reporting to the inspector, I understand."

The boy gave a calm answer.

"Chasing thieves, I trampled through walls and roofs, causing complaints from residents; I destroyed a building to defeat drug dealers, indirectly causing surrounding houses to collapse; I caused a bloody battle in the street to arrest a fugitive, destroying the ground and injuring several passersby; and I disobeyed orders, turning the mastermind of an organ trafficking ring, whom I was supposed to capture alive, into mincemeat... There are too many to list."

As he flipped through the boy's resume, the inspector sighed.
