Chapter 119: Qi Jielahua
A week later, Kishi leaves the base with Okaki, and they will return to the moon to rebuild the Carlo base, which is their responsibility, in the words of the two.
And the trouble that Tetsuya expected did not come, and there didn't seem to be too many questions about his situation, but then Tetsuya had a more in-depth negotiation with Director Sawai, and Tetsuya realized that it was Director Sawai who suppressed the matter.
In fact, there have been many meetings between the TPC leaders regarding Tetsuya's identity, and some people have proposed that Tetsuya be studied as an experimental subject, and such a powerful force cannot be controlled by Tetsuya alone. It's just that this idea is too radical and dangerous after all, and no one knows if it will provoke Tetsuya's disgust, so that Ultraman stands in opposition to humans, and no one can guarantee this, but as long as there is a 1 in 10 million possibility, they dare not try. There are also high-level proposals to further communicate with Tetsuya, win over the benefits, weigh the forces of all parties, and in the end it is Director Sawai who makes the decision, everything is still the same, no experiment, no monitoring, no difficulty. This established the principle of three no's for the Ultraman human body.
This kind of thing, Tetsuya just heard about it, laughed about it, and didn't take it to heart. Although he has no ill will towards humans, and is even more willing to protect humans and fight monsters, it is not the same as being a soft persimmon that is still rubbed by humans. In the world of Nexus, Ji Yajun is a guy who is cold on the outside and warm on the inside, and then he was directly arrested for experiments, and the end is not unmistakable. Tetsuya knows all of this, and if TPC tries to arrest himself for experiments, then he will inevitably resist and defect.
Now it seems that it is indeed an extra easy thing to have a wise leader above the head, but fortunately, Director Sawai is such an ideal leader.
Everything is maintained in such a delicate balance, and Tetsuya's identity as an Ultraman human body is no longer a secret within TPC, but everyone is invariably silent. Tetsuya still comes to the war room on weekdays, joking with the people of the victory team, and the days slowly return to calm and pass day by day, until the arrival of spring, the season of a hundred flowers has come.
Spring is undoubtedly a season full of life, the plants and trees are budding, the flowers are in full bloom, and in some inconspicuous corners of the earth, there is a seemingly ordinary flower quietly blooming, with the Far East as the center and beginning to spread to the world, it seems to be the same as the wildflowers on the roadside, but it is burying its head in sucking the nutrients of the land, slowly rooting its roots deeper into the ground, ready to usher in the moment of bloom, scattering pollen into the air.
The war room looked idle, Tetsuya sat in the corner boredly turning the Rubik's Cube in his hand, Ye Rui sat behind the central computer as usual, and Horii lay on the table as if he wanted to sleep. And Chiki was massaging Xincheng, and Xincheng kept giving him advice, warning him not to provoke his sister. Lina, on the other hand, was in a daze, and Dagu was watching stupidly, making lewd laughter similar to "hey, hey, hey" from time to time.
"Hey... Why do you keep looking at me and laughing!" Lina's eyes widened, and she puffed out her mouth to look at Dagu.
"That..."Da Gu lowered his head slightly, he couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart when he thought of marrying Lina and having two children, and the whole person began to imagine a better life in the future, so he couldn't help laughing.
Under Lina's sight, Dagu panicked and thought of an excuse, at this time, the door of the war room opened, Megumi and Munakata walked in side by side, everyone's eyes immediately looked over, and Lina didn't care about interrogating Dagu's lewd smile.
"Ye Rui, there is a new task, the picture has been transmitted to the central computer, you can check it. Megumi said as she sat down in the center and looked at the big screen.
It was a vast grassland, and it didn't seem to be anything unusual, Tetsuya frowned slightly, and his fingers that turned the Rubik's Cube slowly paused, and then he saw that there seemed to be a flash of light on the entire grassland, and a short moment made several people stunned.
"Is it possible that there is a UFO?"
"UFOs, then we'll probably have to investigate. The door behind her then opened, and Anri began to visit the door every day with a plate of fruit, followed by the timid Otohime, as her little tail.
Tetsuya smiled slightly when he saw this scene, picked up a piece of fruit to eat, and dug the well exaggeratedly shouted, "This task is our belch..."
However, although he muttered dissatisfiedly, he did not stop chewing the fruit, and nodded with a satisfied face at the end, "The fruit is delicious this time, and it is very comfortable to live such a day every day." ”
"Yes, yes, yes... It's all the same as a pig, so it's uncomfortable. Xincheng on the side shrugged, "I haven't had anything to do in the past few months, anyway, I'm going out on this mission, and no one wants to rob me." ”
"The plasma reaction is strong, but there is nothing. Over there, Ye Rui called the central system to conduct the corresponding detection, and said helplessly.
"Then what are you waiting for!" Xincheng almost jumped to his feet, moving his arms and exclaimed excitedly, "Then we have to investigate it properly!"
"What do you think of Blast?" Megumi looked at Tetsuya, who had not spoken.
"Maybe it's an ordinary UFO incident?" Tetsuya shrugged his shoulders and said in an indifferent tone, "But I agree with Shinjo's words, no matter what it is, we should investigate it properly." ”
"That's what you really think?" Megumi Karuma smiled, an expression that I could already see through you.
"Okay," Tetsuya pouted and stood up helplessly, "I'll admit it's too boring, so take this opportunity to go out for a ride." ”
In fact, Tetsuya is not the only one who is bored, Shinjo, Oko, Rina, Anri and Otohime all took this opportunity to set off, and several warplanes flew over the Pacific Ocean and slowly landed at the scene of the incident.
Facing the endless green grassland, the breeze mixed with the smell of flowers and soil, the feeling of spring came to the face, under the arrangement of Tetsuya, everyone scattered in the grassland in twos and threes, holding instruments in their hands for testing.
said it was a test, but in fact, it was rewound with a bit of the meaning of herding sheep, and Tetsuya was the first to find a grass to lie down and take the lead in stealing laziness. Otohime likes to follow Tetsuya, so she sits next to Tetsuya, and Anri doesn't look like she has a way to work hard, lying there lazily and not wanting to move.
As soon as he got off the fighter plane, he lay down three of them, Xincheng shook his head when he saw it, and while expressing his disdain in a straight way, he was about to sit on the grass, but Lina directly twisted his ears and picked him up.
"We have a mission! Dagu, don't tell him to be lazy. Lina's words were still very prestigious, and Dagu dragged the reluctant new city to work, and the three of them walked around the prairie with instruments and no brains.
"This... What kind of flower is it?" Lina looked at the cluster of flowers at her feet, the tongue was long, the flowers were pentagonal, and the yellow flowers bloomed in the sun, but she had never seen them before.
"Zigera!"
A crisp voice sounded behind him, and Da Gu looked back, only to find that it was a little girl who appeared at some point, wearing a dark blue long dress, with this strange flower in front of her ears.
"This flower... It's called Qi Jielahua?" Da Gu asked again with some uncertainty, but he felt as if a spring breeze was blowing, his nose was a little itchy, and he wanted to yawn but didn't make it, which made Da Gu rub his nose a little uncomfortably.
"That's... Why don't you go to the world of dreams?" muttered the little girl, her expression a little puzzled and puzzled.
"Dreams... The world of dreams?" Da Gu paused, he was still puzzled in his heart, but suddenly there was a burst of exaggerated laughter behind him, Da Gu turned his head to look, only to find that Lina was bent down and muttering something with her head down, and grabbed a cluster of Qi Jie Lahua flowers, with a stupid smile on her face, "Why do you always shake around..."
Not far away, Xincheng is smiling and running on the grassland, like a rhinoceros in heat, and the appearance of a wandering skeleton is unbearable.
"It's... What's going on?" Dagu looked at the situation of the two people in front of him with some confusion, and at this time, the PDI on his waist rang, and Tetsuya's cold voice came out.
"Dagu, is there an abnormality in your place too?"
"Yes, Lina and Xincheng... They're not in the right place. Da Gu tried to describe one or two, but he didn't know what words to use, and the two people in front of him seemed to have fallen into hysteria, and the appearance of dementia was like a child whose brain was not fully developed.
"Hmm... The same goes for Anri, I've knocked her unconscious for the time being. Tetsuya said directly: "You come over first, confirm the cause of the incident, and prepare to report the matter immediately." ”
"Understood!"
Dagu closed the PDI, watched the stupid Lina and Xincheng stomp their feet for a while, and had to temporarily take the girl behind him and walk in the direction of Tetsuya.
"It's the world of dreams, and after going to the world of dreams, no one wants to come back. Facing Tetsuya, who was frowning, the girl behind Dagu said softly: "This is the charm of Qijiela, it can give people the happiness they want." ”
Tetsuya looked at the girl fixedly for a moment, then looked at Lina and Shinshin who were flying in the distance, and then shook his head and said, "Is it like a poison? ”
The girl muttered and shook her head, wrinkling her little face and said, "Anyway, it's going to perish, wouldn't it be better to die comfortably in a dream?"
"Is it like the human race 30 million years ago, repeating that tragic era?" Tetsuya's face turned grim, he shook his head solemnly, and looked at Dagu.
"Dagu, do you remember the era we were in? That was the human race after the Cataclysm Age 30 million years ago, and the main cause of this may be this beautiful flower that seems harmless to humans and animals in front of us. ”
Tetsuya shook his head slightly, but the soles of his feet fell decisively, trampling the beautiful yellow flowers under his feet, slowly crushing them into the soil, with a killing intent on his face at some point, and said in a cold tone: "In the era of the Great Annihilation thirty million years ago, it was impossible for us to stop it, but now it is the survival of human beings of our contemporaries..."
"I will not allow it!"
Dagu looked at the yellow flowers that were trampled under Tetsuya's feet in a daze, but a scene appeared in front of him that he had never seen before, as if an old film was broadcasting, he saw the monstrous flames, the wandering human beings, the sleeping in the dream, and the human beings were gradually abandoned by the world.
There are constantly humans dying in dreams with smiles, but there is still no way to wake up humans, production has stalled, some have stalled. As a result, the entire human society slowly died under anesthesia without pain.
This is... Thirty million years ago, the Age of Calamity!
"Dagu, you go and knock Lina and Xincheng unconscious and bring them back. Tetsuya spoke decisively, and his gaze immediately swept to the girl, "In addition, bring her to the headquarters!"
Otohime has a constant flow of tachyon energy around her, but the Zigera pollen did not affect her, and with the good fortune of Tetsuya and Daiko, she quickly dragged the unconscious three people onto the fighter plane, and then carried the little girl, and flew towards the sky, heading to the TPC headquarters non-stop.
While still on the way, Tetsuya informed the headquarters of the matter first, and even communicated directly with Director Sawai, Tetsuya said very seriously about the big crisis in front of him.
"But... Wind, it's just an ordinary-looking flower. In the war room, Tetsuji Yoshioka shook his fan, and his face was puzzled: "Are you making a mistake?"
"That's right..."Ye Rui controlled the central computer, searching for the Qijiera flower in Tetsuya's mouth, and said in surprise by comparing the patterns: "This kind of flower has an extremely wide range of growth, and there are such flowers in the tropics, subtropics, and cold zones." ”
"It's just an ordinary flower, just like the grass under your feet, even if it's distributed all over the world, there's no fuss. The chief of staff of Nanyuan on the side shook his head disdainfully, "What destructive power can this flower have? It is just ornamental, can it still eat me, kill me?"
Megumi Kuruma clasped her hands together and looked at the report she had just printed, frowning: "There has never been a record of this kind of flower before, but this spring seems to have appeared out of nowhere, and it has spread all over the world..."
"This is the flower that almost completely wiped out the ultra-ancient humans thirty million years ago!" Tetsuya explained as he flew the fighter plane to the base urgently, trying to remain as calm as possible, but he still had to accentuate his tone to make everyone understand the importance of the moment.
"This is not an April Fool's joke, it is not a small event, this is a global event related to the survival of humanity!"
Dagu's voice also came, and he was more gentle than Tetsuya, and said in a sincere tone: "Chiefs, please believe the results of our investigation!"
"But... Even so... Zijie latte art can really produce the effect you said, and let people enter the world of dreams... It's just a flower, is it really that scary?" Tetsuji Yoshioka still couldn't believe that such a small flower could bring such a powerful harm, as the boss of the TPC hawks, what he had always believed in was a powerful weapon in his hand.
"Chief Yoshioka..."Tetsuya let out a sigh of relief, explaining word by word, "It's like a soft knife, and it has an effect when humans can't notice it..."
"Also, I don't know if you've ever seen... - drug addicts?"
Tetsuji Yoshioka thought about it, his face changed slightly, and he turned his head to look at the chief of staff of Nanyuan on the side, who was also silent and did not speak, Director Sawai also instantly understood what Tetsuya meant, he calmed down, and said sharply:
"Immediately begin investigating the distribution of Zigera on Earth!"
