Yuriko was feeling rather cheerful at the moment. Jack had been playing with friends earlier, she'd managed to stay in contact with that beautiful girl with the twin sibling Servants from a few weeks ago... all in all, today was a good day. And she'd already made it even brighter.

"Her you go, Jack," she said, smiling, as she offered a fresh, warm pastry to the little silvery-haired girl. She'd purchased two of them, a lovely pair of fresh red bean taiyaki, from a local bakery. Admittedly, her choice had been in part prompted by the idea of introducing the little Assassin to a completely new pastry(and one of her favorites). As someone whose blood lay both in the west and the east, she was fond of the sheer variety of pastries that both of her countries of origin exhibited. Taiyaki in particular was a favorite of hers, especially those with red bean paste.

Naturally, there was no way she would pass up on the opportunity to give her Assassin the chance to have a taste.

"Right. Sending request now."

Emilya swiftly opened her laptop. Benienma couldn't help but watch for a few moments... While it wasn't as if she had never seen such things before, and the modern era had been illuminated to her by the mechanism of her summoning, that didn't mean she didn't find the idea of something like a computer fascinating. In spite of the situation, she wondered if it would serve well as a way to distribute her favorite recipes to the entire planet... after all, if they could connect to any place in the world...

But right now, there were matters of justice to attend to.

"... Wow, already?" Emily seemed surprised, just moments later. "Request confirmed. You're set to access the main database."

This meant heading to central administration. They'd been given clearance so quickly, though... was something going on? Benienma was surprised, to say the least... but maybe it meant administration considered this enough of a serious matter to give them the go ahead?

"Let's go, masta," Benienma said, taking a step forward, "The fast we get this done, the faster we can discover the culprit's identity dechi!"

The Fusang Administrative Center was previously the largest building in the city. It resembled a towering obelisk of obsidian, jutting up from the island's skyline. Simply approaching it would let even the weakest mage feel the incredible magical energy surrounding it, as layers upon layers of defensive bounded fields shut out outside attack or influence. Both magical and technological defenses were employed to shield it from both direct assault and cybernetic attack.

It was not inaccurate to call it one of the most well-defended buildings on the entire planet because of this.

Simply approaching it, Benienma could feel the intensity of the bounded fields layered over it. None of them excluded actually entering the building at the moment, but she was certain that they could if necessary.

The only structure taller on the entire island was the in-progress space elevator, which seemed to jut higher into the sky with every passing month. The diminutive enma didn't truly understand its purpose, but the administration was apparently quite keen on its construction.

After a few moments, the doors slid open seemingly on their own, beckoning them inside.

Inside was a lobby, with a waiting area and a desk with a pretty dark-haired woman sitting behind it.

"You must be Benienma-san and Kishinami-san, correct?" she asked, her tone quite stiff and formal. Benienma couldn't help but note that, while she certainly looked like an ordinary human, something didn't seem altogether normal about her. "Your request was logged, it should only be a few moments. Another request came in at the same time. Normally you would be separated, but the administration cleared simultaneous access."

"Chirp chirp?" Benienma tilted her head. Why would they do that? Who else was accessing the database at the same time? "Masta, do you think someone else is participating in the investigation? We weren't informed though..."
