When Ai Li arrived at the crime scene, it was already surrounded by a cordon and the police were searching everywhere. Nangong Nayue, wearing a black Gothic outfit, stood inside the cordon, looking at the scene in front of her.

"This is the third time this month."

Ai Li controlled the broom to come to Nangong Nayue's side, then whispered, and Nangong Nayue nodded solemnly.

"Yes, it's really troublesome."

"What about surveillance?"

"It was destroyed. The other party was obviously very cautious."

"So I said, why not use my method?"

Hearing this, Ai Li curled her lips, and Nangong Nayue also raised her head and looked at her.

"You mean your magical version of surveillance? It's not that easy for the higher-ups to agree."

"I know, but it's a pity."

What Ellie was talking about was, of course, the magic she invented in the Harry Potter world, "All Things in the Universe", a magical version of surveillance with 360-degree coverage. In fact, she had proposed this suggestion after the first case, but the higher-ups had never approved it. After all, this wasn't Hogwarts in Harry Potter. In modern society, people always like to be serious about personal privacy, and Ellie's identity was the fourth true ancestor, so people were afraid that this magic had some hidden secrets...

"What are the autopsy results?"

"Killed in one blow, with basically no resistance."

"So the opponent is very powerful, and there must be a way to restrain the power of the demons..."

After all, Fang Zheng worked as a consultant for the Metropolitan Police Department in the Conan world, so he was naturally familiar with criminal investigations, so there would certainly be no problem if he was assigned to Ai Li.

"Let me take a look at the investigation report."

"Give."

Nangong Nayue handed the investigation report in her hand to Ai Li, who picked it up and flipped through it.

"So the demon who was killed this time was also a gangster with a criminal record... What is this, a modern version of Jack the Ripper?"

In order to classify the cases, they must be investigated. The reason why these three demon murders are classified into one category is based on the characteristics of the investigation - all the victims are notorious demon criminals. Of course, strictly speaking, they are not particularly dangerous criminals. After all, there are two magic attackers, the Void Witch and the Silver Witch, on Genshin Island. Most of those dangerous criminals who don't care about their lives have been dealt with long ago.

The victims of these three incidents were basically people with criminal records of petty theft, hooliganism, etc. So from the current situation, it can be basically confirmed that the other party deliberately lured these guys to take action and then killed them.

"The higher-ups have considered imposing a curfew, but they are also worried that if things get too serious, it will cause violence and chaos..."

"All we should do now is to strengthen patrols."

Ellie jumped off her broom, walked around the crime scene, and then frowned.

"It's almost a one-shot kill. It's a completely one-sided overwhelming advantage. What can we gain even if we kill this kind of trash?"

"Do you have any ideas?"

Nangong Nayue looked at Ai Li, who shook her head.

"That's the scene, but I want to see the body."

"To be honest, as a teacher, I don't think it's the right thing to do to take a student to see a dead body."

"What are you talking about, Nayue-chan? I'm a magic attacker, okay?"

Facing the Gothic Lolita's accusing gaze, Ai Li's smile did not change at all. The two looked at each other for a moment, and then Na Yue sighed as if giving up.

"Well, you'll go anyway even if I try to stop you... Anyway, be careful. I don't think you'll encounter any danger with your strength."

As soon as she finished speaking, Na Yue disappeared without a trace. As a Void Witch, her ability to manipulate space was first-rate. Yes, it was as if...

"Old purple lady?"

Ellie looked around and then shouted in a low voice.

No response.

That's right, even if it's all about manipulation gaps, not everyone would be as neurotic as a certain old lady.

At this moment, the police outside the scene have already returned home. The records here have been completed and the investigation has ended. The remaining difficult cases can be left to the magician to deal with - after all, Ai Li has cooperated with them more than once or twice, they are very familiar with each other, and have long established a trusting relationship.

"Ah, here! I finally found you, Senior!!"

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded, and then Ellie saw a black shadow jumping on the roof and landing in front of her.

"Really, you are so hard to find, Senior!"

"Setsuna?"

Looking at Himeragi Setsuna in front of her, Ai Li was obviously a little surprised, and the latter nodded.

"Yes, I am your supervisor...partner, so I should act together with you. But you ran away without saying a word, which made it difficult for me to find you."

She just wanted to say surveillance, this child is really honest.

Hearing Setsuna's answer, Ai Li smiled slightly, but soon she looked at the girl in front of her with a puzzled expression.

"But you ran out dressed like this?"

It's no wonder that Ai Li would have such a question, because Xue Cai was wet all over, with water droplets on her hair, and her white uniform was tightly attached to her skin, and one could even see inside.

"I, I have no choice."

Noticing Ai Li's gaze, Xue Cai blushed and quickly covered her chest.

"Because I was taking a shower when I noticed that Senior had gone out, so I hurriedly followed him...um...so..."

"Anyway, you should tidy up first. It will be troublesome if you catch a cold."

Looking at the flustered and shy Xuecai, Ai Li also sighed, then she reached out and picked up the magic wand and pointed it at Xuecai. Soon, a stream of hot and warm air rose from the ground and wrapped Xuecai in it. After a moment, Xuecai's originally wet clothes and hair were completely dried. She widened her eyes in surprise and looked at her body, appearing quite surprised.

"This is……"

"Magic is sometimes more convenient."

Ai Li put away her wand and looked at Setsuna.

"Then Xuecai, you should go back first. I still have work to do..."

However, in response to Ai Li's words, Setsuna clenched her hands and shook her head vigorously.

"No, please let me go with you, Senior. I'm also a magic attacker, so I'll definitely be able to help!"

"This has nothing to do with whether or not you are a magician..."

Although Ai Li wanted to refuse, she sighed when she saw the determined look in Setsuna's eyes.

"Are you sure you want to come? Let me warn you, what's coming next is going to be very exciting, and you might not be able to handle it."

"I, I'm fine."

Hearing what Ai Li said, Xue Cai was a little hesitant. Although she didn't know what Ai Li was going to do, the more she didn't want her to go, the more she wanted to go. After all, she still had the mission of monitoring the Fourth True Ancestor!

"Please let me go with you!"

"All right."

Ellie thought for a moment and nodded.

Because there were two of them, Ai Li did not send her off with a broom, but took a car, and then the two of them came to a funeral home in the northern part of Genkami Island. It was already late at night, and the entire road was pitch black, with no one in sight. Looking at the dark building in front of her, without any light, Setsuna was somewhat nervous.

"funeral parlor."

"Why?"

Hearing Ai Li's answer, Setsuna was shocked, but before she could say anything else, Ai Li had already walked to the door, talked to the guard for a few words, and then took out her magician license. After carefully checking it, the guard nodded and opened the door, and then Ai Li walked in. Setsuna hesitated for a moment, and hurriedly trotted to catch up.

"What are we doing here?"

"Investigate the victims and see if you can find any clues... You should have watched the news. There have been a series of demon killings in recent days. The victims are all small hooligans and other demons with a history of hooliganism. They include vampires and orcs, which are strong races. However, they were killed in a very short time. In order to investigate the situation and get clues, I plan to come and see their bodies... Is this okay with you?"

Having said that, Ai Li looked at Setsuna again. Although the latter's face was pale, she still forced herself to cheer up.

"No, it's okay, Senior! I'm a genuine magician, a sword wizard from the Lion King Organization, I won't be afraid!"

"I hope so. Of course, if you can't stand it, you can leave."

After taking a look at Xuecai, Ai Li retracted her gaze. Indeed, for a magician who is good at fighting, he would definitely have a higher tolerance for corpses. But the problem is that autopsy is not as simple as simply killing the target. You know, even Nangong Nayue is unwilling to watch these things and would rather find a reason to run away. Ai Li did not have high expectations for the reaction of this rookie sword wizard.

"Welcome, little Ellie."

When the two arrived at the basement, a female doctor in a white coat came over with a smile. Seeing her appearance, Xue Cai was so scared that she took a step back - not only because the female doctor in front of her looked thin and as if she had stayed up too late, but also because of the bloodstains on her white coat.

He is a real murderer who dismembers and kills people.

"Long time no see, Miss Haruta."

Ai Li nodded as a greeting, and the latter looked at Setsuna behind Ai Li curiously.

"Who is this child?"

"My assistant... I think you already know why I'm here."

"Of course, come with me."

The female forensic doctor snapped her fingers and led the two to an autopsy room. In the metal box in front of them, there was a corpse covered with a white cloth. The female forensic doctor strode over and pulled open the white cloth.

"Alas--!!!"

Seeing the body under the white cloth, Xue Cai screamed immediately. This was not because of the tragic state of the body, but because the body lying in front of them was a male body, and it was not wearing any clothes. For Xue Cai, this kind of stimulation was much greater than the body itself.

But Ellie didn't care about any of this and went straight to the chest of the corpse.

"This is the fatal wound."

"Yes, there was only one place where the other party acted very quickly and almost killed him with one strike."

“How strange…”

"Yeah?"

"Of course, because the deceased was a vampire. It's not that easy to kill an immortal vampire. Vampires have strong vitality, and they also have the ability to atomize. Even if you attack them from the dark, it's hard to kill them with one strike."

Staring at the corpse in front of her, Ellie's doubts not only did not decrease, but increased.

She took out a plastic glove, put it on, then stretched out her hand.

"Ms. Chuntian, please bring the knife over here. I want to see what's going on inside."

"OK."

After hearing what Ai Li said, the female medical examiner handed over a knife. Ai Li took the knife and stabbed it directly into the chest of the corpse, then slowly spread it downwards. She then stretched out her hand and pulled the surface skin and muscle layer of the corpse apart like peeling off flesh, revealing the bones and internal organs inside.

At this moment, Xuecai's face had turned pale and her body was shaking.

"What did you find?"

“There are indeed some discoveries.”

Ellie fiddled with the dead man's body for a while, then took out a heart.

"Look, its heart has shrunk. Not only that, its internal organs are also shrinking, and the shrinkage is rapid. There are signs of dissolution in the muscles..."

"so?"

"This is a sign of rapid loss of magic power, so I suspect that the murderer may have used some method to absorb or eliminate its magic power in a short period of time, causing it to lose its attack power and be killed..."

“Wow!!”

Just as Ai Li put the heart on the tray next to her, Xue Cai finally couldn't help covering her mouth, turned around and rushed out.
