Titan Base, Ward.

The injured Kaito sat on the hospital bed and let the nurse wrap his bandages, while Shigeru and Rishi, who were leaning against the wall on the other side, calmly watched the scene in front of them with their arms crossed.

After some entanglement, the nurse skillfully cut the bandage with medical scissors and tied a knot, put away the tools to confirm that they were correct, and got up from the chair next to the bed.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Seeing that the nurse had finished treating the wound on Kaito's hand, Shigeru Hijikata and Rishi hurriedly stepped forward and spoke.

Bowing slightly to the two, the nurse reached out to lift the silver medical box at her feet, and then walked towards the outside of the ward.

After the nurse leaves, Shigeru Hijikata and Rishi step forward to the hospital bed where Kaito was.

"Captain, Team Rishi."

Although the two of them were in the early morning, because the nurse was dealing with his wounds, Kaito only opened his mouth and shouted at this time.

Nodding at Kaito, Shigeru Hijikata's gaze immediately fell on Kaito's bandaged arm, and he couldn't help but sigh lightly.

"You're lucky to have only suffered a minor injury in that situation."

Glancing at the bandages on Kaito's hands, Rishi sat down on the chair next to Kaito and spoke softly.

"It was the giant who saved me...... Otherwise......"

Whispering softly, Kaito lowered his eyelids slightly, "Speaking of which, what about Reguira?" ”

"It's gone, and we're searching for its whereabouts."

Looking up at Kaito in front of him, Shigeru Hijikata replied.

"It's all my ...... to blame"

Some silently lowered his head, and said guiltily.

"Do you know what you're doing, Fighter?"

Calmly staring at Kuaito who looked guilty on the hospital bed, Rishi spoke in a soft tone, but with great seriousness.

"What ......"

Not daring to look directly into Rishi's calm eyes, Kaito tilted his head slightly and said unnaturally.

"I know you must have thought that as long as you act rashly, Ultraman Max will come to help, so that you can prove that Ultraman Max is a friend of humans, right?"

With a slight smile on his face, looking at Kuaito, who had dodged his eyes in front of him and didn't answer, Rishi said softly, "I guessed right, right? ”

"Captain!"

Looking at the silent Kaito, the smile on Rishi's face suddenly turned into a calm color, and he turned to look at Shigeru Hijikata on the side and said, "I don't want to fight side by side with the Kaito team members in the future. ”

"Team Rishi?"

Hearing Rishi's calm words, Kaito suddenly turned his head to look at her in a daze.

"I also believe that Ultraman Max is our friend."

Calmly speaking to Kaito, Rishi got up from his chair and walked to the door of the hospital room, "But I guess, we can't rely on Ultraman Max completely. ”

"I'll take my leave."

Nodding to Shigeru Hijikata on the other side, Rishi took one last look at Kaito on the hospital bed and turned to leave.

"Ugh."

Sighing slightly, Shigeru Hijikata raised his eyes to look at Kaito and said, "Kaito, can I ask you a question?" ”

"What's the problem."

Rishi's words seemed to echo in his ears, and Kaito replied a little distractedly.

"What are we fighting those vicious monsters for?"

Looking at Kaito calmly, Shigeru Hijikata asked.

"Of course, for the peace of humanity and the planet."

Without a moment's hesitation, Kaito raised his eyes and looked at Shigeru Hijikata in reply.

"That's right, to protect the peace of humanity and the planet." Nodding at Kaito, Shigeru Hijikata repeated his words.

"But, Kuaidou, is it necessary to prove all this?"

"What we DASH does, Ultraman Max is also doing, do we need to prove all this?"

Whispering to Kaito, Shigeru Hijikata slightly tilted his head and glanced at Kaito's credentials placed on the table on the other side, "Before the injury is healed, think about this carefully." ”

As he spoke, Shigeru Hijikata got up and picked up the black ID, took out the DASH badge in Kaito's nervous eyes, and motioned to Kaito, "Until you think clearly, I'll keep this first." ”

After speaking, Shigeru Hijikata put the badge in his pocket and turned to leave the ward, leaving Kaito alone in the ward with chagrin and remorse.

"How's it going?"

On the same side, Rishi, who had been leaning against the wall since coming out of the ward, saw Shigeru Dokata coming from the corner and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

Nodding at Rishi, Shigeru Hijikata turned around and looked at the location of the ward and said, "He will definitely be able to find the answer on his own." ”

"Let's hope so......"

Also glancing in the direction of the ward, Rishi said softly.

"Alright."

Reaching out and taking out the DASH badge he had taken from Kaito, he gestured to Rishi, and Shigeru Hijikata said, "We should trust him." ”

Understanding the meaning of Shigeru Hijikata's words, Rishi nodded, then responded with a smile, "Yes." ”

......

DASH Command Room

"Haven't caught Reggira's whereabouts yet?"

Standing up and walking to Ellie's side, Kenjiro Kiwa asked, looking at her rapid tapping of buttons, the speed of her hands beyond ordinary people, and the flow of data flashing in her eyes.

"Scans are done continuously until they are captured."

With her eyes glued to the screen in front of her, Ellie replied without raising her head.

"It's all up to you."

Smiling and nodding at Ellie, Kenjiro Kiwa patted her on the shoulder and said.

"Well, he's fine."

At this moment, Sean sighed and walked over from the side, watching Ellie and Kenjiro Kiwa speak.

"Who are you talking about?"

"Samurai boy, the whole person seems to have become melancholy."

Spreading his hands, Sean replied.

"Sean, could you please say something less that would affect my analysis?"

Continuing to tap the buttons at a rapid pace, Ellie reminded without raising her head.

“I am sorry.”

Bowing slightly to Ellie, Sean said with some embarrassment.

"That guy must be fine!"

With a lot of confidence in Kaito, Kenjiro Kitewa spoke.

Hearing what Kenjiro Kiwa said, Ellie, who was tapping the buttons, suddenly stopped moving, turned her head to look at Kenjiro Kiiwa and said, "If that guy is a member of the Kaito team, I think there must be something wrong with him." ”

"Why?"

"The conclusions I came to based on the numbers after analyzing the mental damage he had suffered."

Looking at Kenjiro Kiwa very seriously, Ellie turned her head again and tapped the keys after she finished speaking.

"This kind of thing can't be understood in numbers."

"That's right, the human mind cannot be analyzed."

Taking Kenjiro Kibiwa's words, Sean also spoke.

"Shh——!h

At this moment, the door of the command room opened, and the captains Shigeru Hijikata and Rishi walked in, and when they saw the two people around Ellie, they couldn't help but wonder, "What are you doing together?" ”

"I'm talking about the samurai boys."

Looking up at Shigeru Hijikata, Sean replied.

Nodding at Kenjiro Kibiwa, Shigeru Hijikata turned to look at Ellie in front of the instrument and asked, "Ellie, is there any news from Reyguira?" ”

"It's still being scanned."

As before, Ellie replied.

Nodding slightly, the next moment, Shigeru Hijikata suddenly thought of something, and said to Ellie, "Ellie, project the image of the blue giant recorded today on the screen." ”

"Understood."

Nodding at Shigeru Tsujikata, Ellie reached out and pressed a few buttons to project the screen at breakneck speed.

"Tick ——!"

With a soft sound, all but Ellie, who was still scanning, all the attention of everyone else fell on the screen that appeared on the screen.

Sudden light ...... Divided Seas...... Giant Shadow...... The move to rescue DASH1......

Although he was a witness to this incident, after seeing the screen again, everyone's eyes were still full of surprise, and they were full of deep curiosity about the mysterious blue giant.

"Kaidou, he was saved by this blue giant......"

Looking at the blue giant on the screen, Sean Na said.

"Ellie, have you named the files and records of this giant?"

Looking at the screen in front of him, Shigeru Hijikata suddenly turned his head to look at Ellie in front of the instrument and asked.

"Not yet."

With a slight sound of machinery running, Ellie turned to look at Shigeru Hijikata and replied truthfully.

"We don't know much about this giant at the moment, and we can't make him a friend because of his momentary actions."

Frowning slightly, Shigeru Hijikata said as he pondered, "The existing analysis materials only have this image, and I don't understand what the purpose of this giant's appearance is. ”

"Indeed."

Acknowledging Shigeru Tsujikata's point of view, Rishi continued, "And we don't know if this giant is related to Ultraman Max, or if he is the same Ultraman as Ultraman Max. From the same place. ”

"Since we don't know anything about this enigmatic giant!"

Suddenly raising his eyes to look at everyone, Kenjiro Kiwa proposed loudly: "Then let's temporarily distinguish this giant from Ultraman Max, how about a code name zero?!" ”

"Codename Zero?!"

Hearing Kenjiro Kitena's words, everyone subconsciously repeated.

"Zero...... Pretty good codename. ”

Muttering and nodding at Kenjiro Kibi, Shigeru Hijikata looked at Ellie with a smile and announced, "Ellie, name the Blue Giant's file." ”

"According to Mu Ting, the giant's code name is ...... Zero! ”
