Ultraman Any Key: Qiming

Chapter 556-552 The Death of the Scumbag Reporter Hirukawa!

Chapter 556, Section 552: The Death of the Scumbag Reporter Hirukawa!
When Feng Yuan and the other two woke up, they found themselves lying in a boundless desert, with the scorching sun mercilessly baking the earth.

Momoko Yamaguchi opened her eyes, looking around blankly: "What's wrong with us?"

Hirukawa also looked terrified: "What kind of place is this? We were just in the city a moment ago!"

Feng Yuan stood up: "I don't know either, let's investigate first."

Hirukawa snapped out of his daze and adopted a fawning demeanor: "Then I'll leave it to you. I'll cooperate and won't cause any trouble."

The group walked forward for a while, and after climbing over the top of a sand dune, they saw a scene that filled them with despair.

A destroyed city!
The broken skyscrapers stood crookedly like the skeleton of a giant, their shattered glass and twisted steel bars gleaming blindingly in the sunlight.

The streets were buried under rubble, and the ruins were covered with charred marks, as if telling the story of the terrible disaster that had occurred.

A deathly silence enveloped the entire city; there was no sign of life, no activity.

Only the wind and sand howled through the empty streets, stirring up clouds of ash.

The group walked aimlessly through the desolate city for half an hour, hearing nothing but the sound of the wind and their own footsteps.

Hirukawa's last glimmer of hope was finally extinguished.

"It's over, it's all over!"

"While we were unconscious, this city, and even this world, was destroyed by monsters and aliens!"

Fengyuan stepped forward to comfort him, saying, "Don't worry, such a thing is impossible."

Seeing Fengyuan approaching, Hirukawa suddenly turned around, his fawning expression instantly shattering, revealing a sinister malice beneath.

His eyes flashed with ferocity, and without warning, he slammed a heavy punch into Feng Yuan's face!
With a muffled thud, the unsuspecting Feng Yuan staggered and fell to the ground.

Momoko Yamaguchi rushed forward, screaming, "What are you doing!"

Hirukawa roared hysterically, "It's all this kid's fault, it's all TPC's fault! Because of your incompetence, the Earth was destroyed!"

Now that everything is over, there's no need for him to keep humbling himself!

He kicked him in the stomach like a madman, each blow filled with long-suppressed resentment.

Fengyuan's face immediately contorted in pain, but Hirukawa still seemed unsatisfied, kicking Fengyuan in the stomach repeatedly.

Why? He had already begged for mercy so humbly and shamelessly, and in the end, he still ended up like this!

"Hey, don't go too far!" Yamaguchi Momoko stepped forward to stop him, but was rudely pushed aside by Hirukawa.

Anyway, it's all over, so he doesn't need to pretend anymore.

He wanted to vent all the resentment he had accumulated over the past few days!

"Isn't that Qi Ming supposed to be so powerful? Why didn't he stop the world from being destroyed? He's just a useless piece of trash who only knows how to show off to his own people!"

He kicked and punched Feng Yuan frantically, spitting and cursing, even spitting a mouthful of saliva hard on Feng Yuan's face.

"Bang!" Just as he was about to kick down again, Feng Yuan's left hand gripped his ankle tightly like an iron clamp, but he did not make any further moves.

This is Gen. In the original Leo series, even when his teammates misunderstand and insult him, he will kneel down and beg them for forgiveness.

Even Feng Yuan, as he was, had a change in his expression at this moment.

Seeing his glaring eyes, Hirukawa shuddered and couldn't help but take a step back: "What... what do you want to do? Are the Victory Team members going to beat up ordinary citizens?"

Feng Yuan's voice was low and suppressed: "I...don't want to argue with you!"

Seeing that he still seemed hesitant, Hirukawa became arrogant again: "Then why are you glaring at me like that!"

But he still didn't dare to be too reckless. After letting out a cold snort, he left the two behind and walked forward.

Feng Yuan, enduring the pain, said, "Hey, don't wander off!"

Hirukawa didn't even turn his head: "Shut up. Does being with you guys guarantee my survival? I can survive on my own."

He was determined to get to the nearby supermarket before Fengyuan and the others, and loot all the usable food and medicine, leaving nothing for anyone else.

Just then, a fourth, cold voice suddenly echoed through the ruins, carrying undisguised sarcasm: "See? Humans are such selfish creatures."

A man dressed in black and wearing a black hat appeared out of nowhere in the dark corner.

This is mimicry by the Yabo people!
Hirukawa Kazuki: "Did you come from a safe place? If you do, please take me there."

However, the only response he received was the Yapool's indifferent raised hand, from which an invisible, immense force suddenly erupted.

Hirukawa didn't even have time to scream before he was sent flying like a kite with a broken string, crashing into the rubble of a distant wall.

After finishing, Yabo looked at Fengyuan and said in a voice only he could hear:
"You're protecting this kind of inferior humanity, Ultraman Leo."

"Ultraman can't protect them. If you give them benefits, they'll show this side of themselves."

"Stop being stubborn, just say frankly that you're disappointed with humanity."

"How about joining forces with the Yapools? With our capabilities, restoring your L77 to its peak condition shouldn't be a problem."

"You had no obligation to protect humanity in the first place."

Thinking about what had just happened, Feng Yuan fell silent for a while.

The Yabo people felt that Fengyuan was wavering, and that they were about to succeed.

But the next moment, Feng Yuan shook his head firmly, his eyes blazing: "I refuse! I will never help you peace-disrupting bastards!"

The Yabo man didn't care: "You still don't understand. I need to make it clearer for you."

After saying that, the Yapool took out a gun and handed it to Hirukawa, who was clutching his chest.

His voice was seductive yet icy: "I ask you, do you cherish your own life?"

Hirukawa looked tremblingly at the gun in front of him, then looked up at the Yapool who had just severely injured him from a distance.

The arrogance he had shown when he bullied Feng Yuan was gone from his face; only utter fear remained.

"Then I'll give you a chance."

The Yabo man handed the gun to Hirukawa, pointed it at Ootori, and said:
"Use this gun to shoot that man."

"If you can do it, I will save your life."

Hirukawa's voice was hoarse: "R-really?"

The Yabo man laughed: "I promise."

Hirukawa made a decision instantly. He raised his gun and pointed it at Oogen: "Don't hate me."

He felt there was nothing wrong with what he was doing; people should live for themselves!

Momoko Yamaguchi stood in front of Gen: "If you're going to shoot, then shoot me first."

"Get back!" Feng Yuan's expression changed drastically, and he pulled her behind him.

Seeing Yamaguchi Momoko struggling to step forward, Hirukawa cursed, "You... do you want to die that badly?"

Yamaguchi Momoko: "If it weren't for Mr. Fengyuan, I would have died yesterday. Some things are more important than life. I wouldn't abandon my dignity like you." "What did you say!" Hirukawa was as if stung and enraged. He pulled the trigger sharply.

The destructive light bullet was fired at Feng Yuan. He gritted his teeth, and his right leg suddenly burst forth with intense light.

With a fierce flying kick, he forcefully sent the light bullet flying to the side!
Gen used the Leo Flying Kick in his human form!
This scene, which was far beyond common sense, completely shocked Hirukawa. How could a human do such a thing?

"Monster...you are a monster. No wonder Qi Ming could take on so many people by himself. The Victory Team members are all monsters!" He fired his guns incessantly as if he had lost his mind.

When Feng Yuan heard the word "monster," his body stiffened almost imperceptibly for a moment, but he still kicked the light bullets aside one after another.

The Yabo people watching this scene couldn't help but chuckle.

He felt that with Fengyuan's abilities, he could easily take down Hirukawa.

But he only plays defensively... Ultraman are such pathetic, overly kind people, always trying to win people over.

If I had been the strategist to address this point during the Great War of Ultra 30,000 years ago, the Emperor Empire would definitely have won.

If we capture one hostage and warn Father of Ultra, "If you retaliate, this life will die because of you," then Father of Ultra will definitely not dare to act rashly, and His Majesty the Emperor will be able to defeat him.

He continued to pressure Feng Yuan: "You see, Earthlings will never treat you as one of their own. Once you show any difference, you will be treated as a monster and ostracized."

The next moment, the roar of an engine came from afar, growing louder and louder, violently tearing apart the silence of the ruins.

This caused the Yabo people's expression to change.

What's going on? There can't possibly be anything else in this illusion he created.

Feng Yuan was also moved.

He recognized that sound all too well… it was the engine of a Jeep!
It's Qi Ming! He's here in his Jeep!
The aggressive jeep didn't slow down at all and drove straight toward Hirukawa.

Hirukawa was terrified and screamed, "Hey! What are you doing? Stop! Stop!"

He no longer cared about firing his gun, and scrambled to the side, narrowly avoiding the impact.

He dared not fire again and quickly rolled to the side, avoiding the attack.

"Yo, Fengyuan, sorry to keep you waiting." Qi Ming jumped out of the driver's seat with a nimble movement, greeted Fengyuan with a smile, and spoke as casually as if he were just passing by.
Hirukawa, who had just gotten up from the ground covered in dust, looked up and saw that the person who came was Qi Ming. His face instantly drained of color and was filled with undisguised terror.

This guy may be a member of the Victory Team, but he doesn't follow the rules!

By this time, Momoko Yamaguchi had also come to her senses.

Recalling the scene of crimson light igniting on Feng Yuan's legs, she exclaimed in surprise, "Mr. Feng Yuan... how did you train just now? It's amazing!"

"This..." Feng Yuan was at a loss and didn't know what to say.

Qi Ming smiled, glancing at Hirukawa, who was gripping the gun, and then at the grim-faced Yapool man:
"This whole thing is pointless. Besides proving that Hirukawa is a complete traitor and an ingrate, what else can it prove? That humanity is worthless?"

"Come on, I think you really don't understand. Don't you know he's a public enemy, a rat that everyone despises?"

“He does not represent humanity, does not represent Ms. Yamaguchi Momoko, and certainly does not represent me.”

As he finished speaking, he glanced at Hirukawa, a look that sent a shiver down the latter's spine, a strong sense of foreboding washing over him.

Feng Yuan asked, "Senior Qi Ming, are you... everyone alright?"

Qi Ming: "Of course it's fine. This is a subspace illusion created by Yabo. It's all fake."

"The others have gone to the moon, you should go too. I'll join you after I deal with the Yapools."

After saying that, he greeted the golden and silver dragons outside and had these two monsters with time-space abilities reopen the passage between the subspace and the real world, taking Feng Yuan and Yamaguchi Momoko out.

"Wait, take me with you too, take me with you too!" Upon seeing this, Hirukawa scrambled towards the closing passage.

But the passage was immediately closed, and Hirukawa missed his target and fell face-first into the mud.

"Leave? Where can you go? You shot a member of the Victory Team, is there anywhere for you to hide over there?" Qi Ming looked down at him, his tone so calm it was chilling.

This made Hirukawa shudder, realizing that this matter couldn't be resolved by just getting a beating.

"You... what do you want to do... don't come any closer!" Seeing Qi Ming approaching step by step, Hirukawa pulled the trigger repeatedly in terror, and three bullets whistled out.

Qi Ming took out the ultimate combat device and casually waved it to block all the light bullets.

"What is this!" Hirukawa continued firing, but only heard a hollow click—the bullets had already been fired.

Qi Ming calmly pulled out his Victory Hyper gun: "I'm a very reasonable person. If you fire three shots at me, I'll fire three shots back at you."

This made Hirukawa's face turn pale, and his voice became sharp: "Hey, what do you think you're doing? Stop it right now! How can the GUTS team attack ordinary people like us?"

"Ordinary person? Can you even be considered human?" Qi Ming smiled, pulled the trigger, and a laser pierced through his thigh.

A black hole was torn open in Hirukawa's right leg, and immense pain spread throughout his body, his face contorted with agony.

He screamed and crawled toward the Yabo people: "Save me, please save me!"

The Yabo man, with a cold expression, pondered what to do next, completely indifferent to his life or death.

Qi Ming continued, "Monsters come to Earth almost every day. I have too many things to do, so I don't have time to deal with someone like you."

"But if you insist on jumping out to seek death, I can only kindly grant your wish."

He fired again, this time piercing Hirukawa's abdomen, dark red blood slowly seeping from the charred wound.

The intense pain nearly made him faint. Hirukawa continued to wail, letting out inhuman screams: "I was wrong, I know I was wrong. I was forced to fire the gun. Please forgive me!"

"I was forced to fire now," Qi Ming said. "If I let a disloyal and unjust person like you live, then the next time I pass by the statue of Guan Yu, Guan Yu will come back to life and stab me."

After saying that, he fired the final shot into Hirukawa's head.

"Whoosh!" After the gunshot, everything fell silent.

Hirukawa collapsed to the ground, his eyes wide open, and he fell completely silent.

Seeing this, the Yabo people felt a chill and began to re-evaluate Qi Ming as their opponent.

Yabo: "You actually killed him."

Qi Ming smiled nonchalantly: "What, is it rare for people to kill each other?"

He put away his gun and pointed at the Yabo people:

"Alright, this guy who's been jumping around for so long is done for, the world is much quieter now."

"Your turn next, Yapool."
