Lin Hai circled a spot on the map.
"Two days ago, the two teams from your Xinghai University were last active in this area. After that, we lost contact with them completely."
"There's an abandoned factory there. Normally, hardly anyone goes there."
"We sent people to investigate afterward, too, but found no useful leads. I'm ashamed to admit it."
Haicheng was only so big.
In theory, the Haicheng Esper Bureau should have had a clear grasp of everything happening in the city. Otherwise, how could it manage an entire city?

Three areas and three teams acting separately-it worked out perfectly.
"Oh, there's one
