Ultraman: Because I am Gatanothor

Unless they can kill all of humanity, they can stop the growth of Zijra at its root.

For a moment, the entire command room fell silent.

Even Horii and Shinjo, who usually don't get along, have lost their usual liveliness.

Seeing them like this, Fengdu sighed.

He suggested, "I recommend you all go for a walk!"

Everyone: "???"

When they realized what Fengdu meant, everyone gave a wry smile.

"With humanity facing extinction, who has the mind to go out and explore!"

Fengdu stood up, placed his hands on the table, and his expression became serious.

"Actually, I only just realized that you've started to separate yourselves from human society!"

"What do you mean by that?" Daigo asked, frowning.

The others also looked at him with puzzled expressions.

“I hadn’t noticed this problem before, but seeing how dejected you all looked just now made me realize how serious it is.”

You've all been confined to the Far East base. How long has it been since you've had a proper outing and experienced the vibrancy of the city?

Horii immediately retorted, "What are you talking about? We went to the market the day before yesterday!"

As he spoke, he pointed to everyone around him, "When they have something to do, they also... they also... they also..."

He paused at this point.

His gaze gradually froze, as if he had realized what Fengdu meant.

"I'll only go out when I have something to do!?" Zongfang murmured these words.

Fengdu nodded. "That's right. We only go out when there's something to do. Otherwise, we stay in the base. Even patrols are done in the air or in the vehicle. Whenever a monster appears, we fight it and come right back."

The cleanup was handled by other departments.

So, we're essentially living in a Far East base, gradually becoming disconnected from the outside world!

As he spoke, he stood up, put his hands in his pockets, walked to the front door, and said with emotion, "How long has it been since you've seen a child's smile? How long has it been since you've seen a parent's pride? How long has it been since you've seen a wage slave's genuine smile after receiving their paycheck!"

With that, he walked out of the command room.

In the command room, only the group of people remained, looking at each other in bewilderment.

"How long has it been since we... last saw... their smiles?!" Director Ji Gang murmured.

Yuan Zhenzhi sighed, "It seems like it's been more than ten years!"

Every day I'm either at work or on a plane traveling to different parts of the world; I rarely have time for myself.

Little Sayuri, holding a book, spoke in her childish voice in the command room.

"I'm reminded of a saying that goes something like this: When I reach a high place, I find myself always alone. The desolate winter makes me shiver. What is my purpose at such a high place?"

Director Sawai looked at the lines on his palm and sighed, "Yes, we've risen to a high position, and we're gradually losing sight of the humans below who sustain us!"

Yoshitsuji said, "Then, everyone get a day off and have a great time. The command room will be guarded by the police!"

"This..." He hesitated for a moment, then looked at Director Sawai.

Director Sawai smiled and nodded, saying, "Go ahead and have a good day!"

"Let's go play with humans for a day!"

Chapter 724 Fengdu naturally granted her wish.

Horii and his group drove a specially made minibus out of the base gate.

"That's what we say, but the question is, where are we going to have fun?"

Sitting in the passenger seat, Fengdu shrugged and said, "Whatever, you can go wherever you want, it's not like we have a specific destination!"

Lina, with her arm around Megumi, heard their conversation and her eyes showed a hint of interest. She said, "Actually, there's a place I've always wanted to go. Why don't we take this opportunity to go and have some fun?"

Behind her was Daigo, who stood up curiously upon hearing this and asked, "Where?"

As Lina's boyfriend, it's incredibly irresponsible of me not to know this place.

"Hehe...I won't tell you!" she said, grinning mischievously at Daigo.

He then quickly moved to the back of the driver's seat and entered a destination into the navigation system.

Daigo stared at Rena's round, perky buttocks, completely mesmerized.

"hey-hey……!"

(??)

Xincheng was sitting next to him.

Seeing Daigo's expression, he pouted, crossed his arms, and muttered with a hint of jealousy, "As a woman, I'm a hundred times prettier than Rena!"

Daigo was too lazy to pay attention to him and simply blocked his messages.

He looked around and saw that only the GUTS team members were on the bus; Director Sawai and the others were not there, they had gone somewhere else.

Ye Rui and Karen were holding Xiao Baihe and scrolling through jokes on the internet.

Commander Zong Fang rested his chin on one hand, looking out the car window with a melancholy expression.

Clearly, he was still worried about Zijra.

When Horii, who was driving, saw the destination, he was stunned.

"Metro Zoo!?"

Lina sat back down and said with a grin, "That's right, I was planning to go there with Daigo when we had some free time!"

This decision was originally thought to be made after the final trial.

After all, monsters appear every few days, and as the main force, they simply don't have any spare time.

The original vacation plans have also been completely cancelled.

Upon hearing Horii's words, Megumi nodded and said, "A zoo, huh? Not bad at all!"

……

Meanwhile, Director Sawai, along with Yoshitsugu Yoshitsugu, Ryosuke Sanada, Mitsukuni Shizuma, and Makio Kirino, went on a road trip.

The space station is not yet completed, or rather, it has only just begun producing screws.

Therefore, Ryosuke Sanada is still on Earth.

So Director Sawai hired him as a driver.

After hesitating for a moment, Ryosuke Sanada finally couldn't help but ask, "Director, won't the base be in trouble if we just come out like this without any regard for the consequences?"

Their vehicle was also a seemingly ordinary minibus, but it could actually withstand RPG artillery fire.

Director Sawai and his colleagues sat in the second row.

Hearing Sanada Ryosuke's words, Director Sawai smiled and reassured him, "Don't worry, we're just out for a day trip, nothing will go wrong!"

He has people he trusts watching over the base, so how could anything possibly happen!

Inside the command room.

Yuan Zhenzhi sat in front of the computer desk with a miserable expression.

He couldn't help but complain, "Time after time... you never include me in your games, damn it!"

Nanase Shiro gave him a speechless look. "What, is being with me a hardship for you?"

Staff Officer Na Yuan sighed, took off his glasses, rubbed his temples, and said, "Director Nanase, you know what I mean. I wasn't talking about you!"

Nanase Shiro, playing the first game on his computer, casually said, "I know everyone has been under a lot of pressure since the Great Cataclysm, but actually the director and the others, as well as Megumi and the others, are under the most pressure."

Constantly keeping them on edge isn't necessarily a good thing. Letting them completely relax is actually quite beneficial!

Listening to the music playing and watching Nanase Shiro's gameplay, Motoyuki turned around and suddenly asked seriously, "Has something changed recently?"

He noticed the change in the director's and the others' emotions that morning, but unfortunately, they didn't tell him.

Nanase Shiro paused in his game, looked at the screen indicating he had failed to complete the level, put down the keyboard, and turned to look at him.

"You're overthinking it, there's nothing wrong with it!"

Yuan Zhenzhi stared intently into Nanase Shiro's eyes for a long time.

The latter's eyes showed no change whatsoever.

Finally, it was Yuan Zhen who withdrew his gaze first, and he put his glasses back on.

"That's it!"

Nanase Shiro was taken aback. He hadn't given anything away. What had he figured out?

He couldn't help but ask.
