I'm just an ordinary person passing by.

Gin: "......"

It turns out it wasn't just what looked like a tin shack, it really was a tin shack, even the door was made of tin!

Which department have I been transferred to?

"Come in!"

Just as Gin was about to complain but had to maintain his persona and not complain, a deep male voice came from inside the room.

'That voice!?'

As a top-notch spy investigator, Gin immediately understood that this person must be mature, steady, and extremely trustworthy!

Is he his future boss?

Gin put aside his contempt and opened the door to go inside.

Vodka followed him inside, and he casually closed the iron gate. Then, in an instant, he saw the man sitting behind the wooden chair.

There were no lights in the room; the only source of light was the window behind the man.

Light streamed in through the window, and Gin squinted. Because of the light, he couldn't make out the man's features, but judging from his seemingly ordinary appearance, the man didn't appear to exercise regularly. However, that man was dangerous!

The glasses that reflected the light obscured his eyes. He interlaced his fingers, rested his chin on the back of his hands, and leaned forward. It was an ordinary gesture, yet it gave off a powerful sense of oppression.

Gin knew, of course, that this forward-leaning posture created an invisible sense of oppression. He often did this when he went out on missions, using actions, words, and eye contact to deliver a psychological blow to his target in order to achieve his goal.

However, this was the first time he had ever experienced such a sense of oppression.

Such strong spiritual pressure... ugh, such a powerful aura!

Feeling the heavy pressure, Gin's previous contempt and complaints were instantly forgotten. His eyes became sharper, and his heart gradually warmed up.

Working under such a person must mean carrying out extremely serious and dangerous tasks!

"Gin, member of the Third Section of the Second Investigation Department, reporting for duty!"

"Vodka, the third member of Investigation Department Two, reporting in!"

The two stood up straight and introduced themselves in loud voices.

The next second...

"Can't hear me? Try again!"

Gin felt that he and Vodka had already been quite loud, but since his boss said he couldn't hear them, he would just have to raise his voice even louder.

"Gin, member of the Third Section of the Second Investigation Department, reporting for duty!"

"Vodka, member of the Third Section of the Second Investigation Department, reporting for duty!"

Then......

"Still can't hear me? You think you can be a top spy by speaking so softly? Try again!"

"Second Investigation Department, Third Section..."

"I can't hear you, I can't hear you, start over!"

Gin introduced himself four or five times, but the men were still not satisfied. Even Gin himself was getting a little annoyed.

Good grief, you think it's easy to talk without putting in effort? I just finished a task and haven't even had a break yet!

So Gin didn't hesitate to overthrow his superior.

"Sir, I've already spoken loud enough!"

"Huh? If the boss says he can't hear me, then he can't hear me. Subordinates can't argue with their bosses. Let's start over!!!"

But he was immediately scolded by his boss.

Gin was bitter inside, but he didn't say anything. He secretly remembered the incident and then shouted out his codename.

Finally, after he almost screamed, the man was satisfied!

"Okay, very spirited!"

The man sitting in his seat let out a satisfied sound. His face, which was impossible to read, seemed to be smiling, yet it also seemed not to be smiling. Gin couldn't tell whether he was truly satisfied or just pretending.

But no matter what, it's good to get through this hurdle.

Then, Gin heard his boss begin to introduce himself.

"My code name is Masakado, Taira Masakado, but I don't like the name Taira Masakado. I prefer Masakado, so you can call me Commander Masakado."

"From today onwards, I am your boss, your elder brother. You can rely on me and trust me completely, and I will give you plenty of guidance!"

"Gin and Vodka, welcome to the Special Operations Investigation Team! And welcome to be a member of this team!"

I can't hear you, start over!

Hearing his boss's calm voice, Gin suddenly wanted to speak, but the words caught in his throat. Remembering that this was his direct superior, he ultimately chose to remain silent. Then, he saw his boss take out a document and a video...

"Now, I'm giving you your first task!"

A mission? A first mission?

The reason you called me here in such a hurry must be because of some important task!

Gin felt a jolt of pride and a surge of self-esteem.

Special operations investigation team, first mission, ah, what an honor this is, this is the organization's trust in me!

I will definitely do my best to complete the task!

Chapter Fifty: Is this something a human could come up with?

"..."

"..."

The tin shack was silent. Gin stared at the videos and investigation documents on his phone, falling into a brief silence.

His smile faded, his enthusiasm vanished, and his fingers, which should have been as steady as a mountain, began to tremble.

This...this...this......

"An Investigation into Another World and the Digital World"?

Characters from the world of anime and comics have appeared in our world, and our mission is to investigate these characters and gather information to deal with them.

When Gin saw the document and the video on his phone, his initial reaction was that it was a joke.

As a special operations investigation team, an organization with such an impressive name, it certainly wouldn't be doing anything simple. How could such obviously fake documents be real?

However, as the video continued and the report confirmed the intelligence, Gin gradually stopped smiling.

This is true...

Characters from the comic book world and the anime world have actually appeared. They not only fight in public, but also demolish houses in public.

They even demolished the Tokyo Big Sight.

Investigating these visitors from another world and developing reports and countermeasures is undoubtedly an extremely serious and meticulous task, befitting the name of the Special Operations Investigation Team. But why... why can't Gin get enthusiastic?

He had thought it all out: what he would do if his mission was to assassinate some big shot, or what he would do if he were to infiltrate an international criminal organization... He had carefully considered all his possible actions.

But, but!!!

He finally got his moment of passion, and you made him lose so completely!

Blanch!

"Gin, is there a problem? Can you complete this mission?"

Commander Gin slightly raised his head. Although he couldn't see the man's gaze, he could sense that the imposing man was looking at him. Even though it was Gin who was looking up, he felt that he had to look down... What? I am indeed looking down. Never mind then.

Gin took a deep breath and did not directly answer Commander Masakado's question.

"Commander... is the Special Operations Investigation Team just me and Vodka?"

"No, there are other members as well. The best personnel from other departments have all been transferred here. People from the Fourth Section of Investigation Department One, the Fourth Section of Investigation Department Two, the General Affairs Department, and the Training Institute have all been transferred here."

"Those people who were mobilized..."

"They've already gone to investigate this incident... Erguotou and Laobaigan went among the people to gather intelligence, Dongkui and Hongcao went to investigate foreign spies, Zhuyeqing and Meilan went to Bandai to investigate, and others are investigating in other places."

"..."

So, actually, they came here early to accept their missions, and then this was the last mission left...

Gan!

The tasks that others were assigned were either on-site investigations or going deep into the community—tasks that were somewhat troublesome but without any problems. So why was his task this?

Assassination! Assassination! It's fucking assassination!

Oh, and there's also a mission to go to the Digital World.

You want me, an ordinary person, to fight an enemy who can stop time? To fight a monster that, if it goes all out, could wipe out all 23 wards of Tokyo?

And what about becoming one of the chosen children?

After taking atpx4689, I shrunk and became a child again...

Are you sure this is a task a human can do?

No, are you sure this is a task that a human could come up with?

Wait, what is atpx4689? Why does taking it turn me into a child?

Gin's hands trembled as he accepted the documents. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say. All that remained was, "I understand, Commander..."

"Ring ring~~~"

Just as Gin finished speaking, the phone rang on Commander Masakado's end. Commander Masakado answered the phone in front of Gin, and then the other end reported some information.

After hearing the information, Commander Jiangmen nodded and said, "I understand. In that case, you will be in charge of this matter. The other party is the daughter of a diplomat, so be careful with your attitude. Also, I will send two more helpers to you."

"I'll have someone send you the information."

After saying that, Commander Jiang hung up the phone.

"Gin, Vodka, and Lao Baigan have sent word that Digimon have appeared and fought again. There were no casualties, but they demolished the home of a British diplomat. They have gone to investigate, and you should also go and cooperate with their investigation."

"She's a diplomat's daughter, so be gentle, understand?"
