"So each Special Squad has different duties?" Lin Qiye asked.
"That's right." Wen Qimo nodded. "Teams 001 through 004 are called Special Squads because their duties differ from those of ordinary garrison teams.
"For example, Team 004, Mask, is responsible for hunting down powerful Mysteries that appear in certain cities and cannot be handled by the local Night Watchmen teams. In a sense, they have the heaviest workload.
"Team 003, Phoenix, prioritizes cases related to Mysteries in the mist beyond Great Xia's borders. Such Mysteries are usually extremely dangerous, and their Forbidden Ruins are exceptionally strange. When no new foreign Mysteries appear, they also help Mask carry out its duties.

He searched the passenger cabin, the cargo
