In the central conference room of the Citadel of Freedom, Executive Officer Matsunaga and several people sent from the headquarters sat at the circular conference table, each holding a thick stack of materials in their hands and watching intently. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Managing Officer Matsunaga's voice echoed in the silent conference room: "These are all the information we have collected about Riko Saida so far, and from the information we have so far, Riko Saida is likely to be the Ultraman Dark, which may be the reason why her blood can kill Xenobiotic Beast cells." ”

The investigation team sent by the headquarters, composed of four gray-haired officials, kept going through the information in their hands and roughly understood the current situation.

One of the gray-haired old generals with a shoshi hanging on his shoulders asked, "Commander Matsunaga, you TLT-J are inescapable of the death of Riko Saita, the particle in her body is currently the only practical weapon to deal with xenobiotics, and without her, our progress in developing a vaccine against xenobiotics will be greatly slowed down." ”

"This is indeed our mistake, but who would have thought that Ultraman Dark turned out to be Riko Saida, and this incident also involved Shinya Mizorogi, the former deputy captain of the Night Raid Team, and another unknown person. Managing Officer Matsunaga said without humility or arrogance, "We are not dealing with humans or xenobiotic beasts, but unknown lifeforms with super powers, although there is no evidence, but I suspect that there is a certain connection between xenobiotics and Ultraman Dark." According to the Night Raid team's report, Riko Saita's transformation into Ultraman Darkness has shown the ability to control Xenobiot. ”

"What you mean is that the reason why Riko Saita's blood was able to destroy Xenobiotic Beast cells was because Ultraman Dark had the ability to control Xenobiotic Beasts. ”

"I can't rule out this possibility, otherwise I can't explain that Riko Saida's blood has particles that destroy xenobiotic beasts. Managing Officer Matsunaga said speculatively, "But there is no evidence of any connection between the two at the moment, after all, we don't know much about whether it is Xenobiotic or Ultraman Dark. ”

"You can put it another way," Starry Night's voice suddenly appeared in the conference room, and at the same time, the holographic projector operated, condensing the figure of Yoshizawa Ryoyu in white clothes in the room: "Ultraman Dark is actually a type of Xenobiotic, but the degree of evolution is higher than that of Xenobiotics, which can explain why Ultraman Dark can control the behavior of Xenobiotes, and it also has factors that inhibit the evolution of Xenobiotes." ”

Everyone in the conference room nodded clearly when they heard this, and one of the officers with eyes stroked their eyes: "The conjecture you said is not impossible, but we lack relevant evidence, and there are no conditions for investigation." ”

Another official sitting next to him pulled out a very blurry photo and a clear photo and put it in front of him: "These two mysterious figures appeared in this Saida Riko incident, one was once the deputy leader of TLT-J's night raid team, Mizoro Kishiya, and the other is an unknown person, the headquarters has compared the databases of various countries and has not found relevant identity information, we suspect that he is a life form from outside the earth." ”

"About this..."Starry Night pursed her lips before speaking, "I suggest that you stop investigating this mysterious person, this involves the top secret of the headquarters, and your investigation will not lead to anything other than a waste of manpower and material resources." ”

Matsunaga was stunned, and his eyes flashed a few times: "Do you know anything?"

"All I can say is that he's not an enemy of humanity, and you're not high enough to know anything else. Starry Night looked at these old men, who were all over three hundred years old, and shook his head slightly.

Several people glanced at each other, and they all saw the helplessness in each other's eyes, and they could only pretend to look at the information on the table, and the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became very strange.

And here the lonely door Yihui walked on the street alone with a bag and lost his soul, surrounded by crowds of people, people came and went, so lively, but the lonely door Yihui did not feel any bit of the hot atmosphere, and the surrounding prosperity was extremely dazzling and even made the lonely door Yihui feel irritable.

Suddenly, the sound of animals chirping came to the ears of Kazuki Lonely Gate, calling the sleepwalking Lonely Kazuki back to the world, and he looked up to see that he had unknowingly walked to the zoo that Riko liked to go to in her life.

There were a lot of people inside, most of them parents with their children, and the family gathered together to spend this wonderful weekend. Lonely Gate Yihui hesitated for a long time before he walked into the zoo with heavy steps, found the familiar little pavilion, and sat down slowly.

It's a place that's all too familiar to him, and it's here that he meets, meets, and falls in love with Riko, who likes to sit here and paint different animals with a sketchpad to complete her animal family portraits.

But now that things are wrong, the beauty has passed away, everything familiar in front of me has become particularly dazzling, and the original beauty has become full of irony, which makes the heart of the lonely family ache faintly.

Sitting there in a daze with the phone in his hand, he called his mother, who was far away from home, and was about to go back to his hometown, he wanted to leave the city where nothing but grief and pain remained. Everything became meaningless, whether it was the Xenobiotic or the Night Raiders, Lonely Kazuki wanted to stay away, anything would arouse his sadness.

"Excuse me, can you take a picture for us?" A voice full of happiness sounded in the ears of Lonely Door Kazuki, pulling Lonely Door Ikki back to reality from his fugue and raising his head blankly.

A man about thirty years old looked at the lonely door with a camera in his hand and a look of expectation, and only three or four meters away, a young woman stood there with a pair of children, apparently the family had come to the zoo on the weekend.

"Can you take a picture for us?" the middle-aged man asked again.

Looking at the happy family in front of him, the softness in his heart was touched, he nodded, reached out and took the camera and stood up.

"Thank you so much. The middle-aged man bowed gratefully to the lonely door Yihui, then turned around and walked towards his wife and children, beckoning the children to stand up: "Here, it's time to take pictures, hurry up and stand up." ”

After taking the photo, he returned the camera to them, and stood there in a daze, watching the happy family drift away until they blended into the crowd. In this city, there are many such families who live such a plain and happy life, working hard just so that the family can live happily and beautifully in this world. They don't know that there are terrible monsters in this world, and they don't know that there are people who are silently protecting them.

Kazuki suddenly felt that sometimes ignorance was indeed a blessing, just like this family, if those two children knew that there were terrible monsters in this world, then they would definitely have nightmares. If they knew that those monsters were turned into animals, then the young minds of these two children would also subconsciously fear animals and would not come to the zoo again.
