This is the underground parking garage of a shopping mall that is being sold to the public in an effort to recoup costs due to poor management.

Due to poor management, some shopping mall owners have suffered significant losses, even resorting to shutting down numerous appliances that require long-term electricity but don't generate immediate profits in order to save costs. This includes a large number of security monitoring devices, such as cameras, in underground parking lots.

Therefore, the underground parking lot of this shopping mall is the most suitable place to do things that are not so aboveboard, or that need to be done in the shadows.

For example, the office building was used by powerful figures to conduct organ trafficking transactions with a wealthy businessman.

Uraraka Shige and his group were also lying in ambush here.

"Buzz... woo~..."

With the high-speed hum of the engine, a car that had just entered the underground parking lot precisely entered its parking space. The engine noise gradually decreased to a barely perceptible sound, and finally all the sounds disappeared, leaving only silence.

No one got out of the car.

The security team members around Uraraka Shige did not make any rash moves.

They didn't know if the person in the car was the Zōti Doctor they had been hunting. If not, taking any rash action would alert him, so they chose to wait patiently.

A moment later, a car that was all black and looked like a minivan slowly drove into the underground parking lot, then turned off its engine, and no one got out of the car.

However, the security team members around Uraraka Shige were not in a hurry at all, because it was not yet time for the handover.

Therefore, regardless of who is in those two cars, they still need to wait patiently for what they have to do.

Another half hour passed, and finally it was time for the transaction. The door to the black minivan was opened, and a man in a black suit with a small, earpiece-like device clipped to his ear was revealed.

The man in the black suit then went to the other side of the van, opened the door, and let a middle-aged man in a bright white casual shirt out.

It seems this middle-aged man is the wealthy businessman about to make a deal with the office building's powerful figures.

Upon seeing the arrival of the transaction partner, the representative from the office building's side emerged from the shadows beside a nearby load-bearing pillar and slowly approached the wealthy businessman.

In Uraraka Shige's eyes, this scene was very similar to certain scenes in some spy movies and TV dramas from his previous life.

This also made him afraid to even breathe, becoming unusually cautious and timid, as if he were the one actually conducting the transaction.

The transaction is still ongoing.

Since the representative of the office building business was penniless, the wealthy businessman did not contribute any money.

The representative of the office building business made a hand gesture across his waist, indicating to the wealthy businessman and his bodyguard to follow him to a red sedan not far away.

The red sedan and the van were only a few steps apart, so the wealthy businessman naturally didn't refuse. He nodded and followed behind the representative of the office building power transaction. However, the two bodyguards who got out of the van clearly indicated that the businessman didn't trust the representative of the office building power transaction as much as he appeared.

The wealthy businessman quickly arrived at the red sedan, protected by several bodyguards.

The office building representative opened the trunk of the red sedan, revealing a dull silver metal combination lock box.

The representative then opened the safe, revealing one of the containers, which was exactly the same storage device that Uraraka Shige had taken out from the hiding place of the Zōti Doctor.

At this moment, the container was filled with a translucent, pale red liquid, and a pair of fresh children's lungs were inside the liquid, giving the impression that they were about to fill the container completely.

Upon seeing the items to be traded, the wealthy businessman didn't hesitate. He turned around and gestured several times towards the black minivan behind him, from which another bodyguard in a black suit emerged, carrying a briefcase.

Without a doubt, the briefcase contained cash for the transaction.

And that was indeed the case.

After confirming that the transaction had gone smoothly, Uraraka Shige and the others began to keep an eye on the car that had arrived a while earlier than the van, but which had also remained silent.

However, after waiting for a long time, and even as the transaction of the fresh organs was about to be completed, the car still did not react or move at all.

Even the black-rimmed glasses-wearing man who was there to monitor Uraraka Shige couldn't help but cast a suspicious glance at him.

But just as the car remained silent and unresponsive, a commotion suddenly erupted from the red sedan not far away, where the transaction was about to be completed.

Uraraka Shige and the others turned to look.

The wealthy businessman, along with his four bodyguards, lay dead in pools of blood on the ground. Meanwhile, the man representing the business in the office building was shouting and trying to pull out a gun from his pocket.

Before this representative stood a figure covered in black fur, with sharp claws and teeth, vaguely resembling a human, but upon closer inspection, completely devoid of human characteristics.

Upon seeing this, all the security guards around Uraraka Shige, including the man with black-rimmed glasses, rushed over immediately.

Uraraka Shige. Then, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to her, she quietly groped her way to the dark shadows not far away and hid there, intending to observe from the shadows.

The figure covered in black hair paused slightly upon seeing the group of people with black-rimmed glasses suddenly rush out, but quickly reacted. It swiftly and decisively dispatched the office building agent with a swipe of its claws, then took the container containing the child's organs and began to flee.

The security team members activated their individual Quirk and gave chase. Only the man with black-rimmed glasses suddenly stopped in his tracks, carefully looked around, pulled out a pistol from his pocket, and fired a few shots at various places seemingly aimlessly.

A short while later, the figure suddenly seemed to be attacked by someone; his legs went weak, and he lost all strength, crashing heavily to the ground along with the briefcase containing the child's organs.

A crisp sound of shattering glass rang out.

Upon hearing the sharp sound, the black-haired figure let out a loud, desperate wail.

Judging from the voice, it seemed to be that of the Zōti Doctor with the hooked nose.

At the same time, the Doctor's Zōti seemed to be a signal, as a large number of footsteps suddenly came from the entrances and exits around the underground parking lot.

Along with the sound of footsteps came a loud shout.

"You despicable criminals! You've been caught red-handed! Surrender now!"
