Ultraman: A good pilot doesn't choose his own Ultraman.

Chapter 102, Chapter 101: The Persistent Asuka Shin, the Helpless Nohara Sachiko (Second Update)

"Sir, I'm so sorry, I'm really sorry."

The woman in business attire turned around and apologized to Jiang Yu; she hadn't actually wanted to queue for such an extreme amount of time.

The company president made us work overtime tonight, and this store is too crowded.

Jiang Yu looked casually dressed; he probably wasn't in a hurry.

"Nothing, um, I wanted to ask, has this store suddenly become so popular? I saw so many people queuing up?"

Jiang Yu simply asked directly, as the current situation was puzzling to him.

The woman in business attire paused upon hearing this, her expression turning somewhat strange.

"Sir, are you here for tourism, or did you just return recently?"

"almost."

Jiang Yu nodded in affirmation.

"That's not surprising. This restaurant has been on the news. All the GUTS team members eat noodles here, including Captain Megumi Iruma."

The woman in professional attire seemed to have stars twinkling in her eyes, and her face revealed an emotion called longing.

Among public figures, Megumi Kijima is a role model for women.

Independent and self-reliant, able to succeed in one's career, is truly enviable.

"No wonder, it's all because of the celebrity effect."

Jiang Yu suddenly realized.

"Yes, but the noodles at this shop are really delicious."

The woman in business attire added, a look of fear suddenly appearing on her face.

"The boss used to say he set up a stall in the suburbs at 10 a.m. How could I dare to go to a place like that?"

Now, let alone the suburbs, even in the city center, hardly anyone dares to wander around.

"Huh? What happened?"

"I don't know. The Victory Team hasn't said anything either, but we've heard that many people have gone missing."

A male colleague of mine suddenly disappeared a couple of days ago; I heard it happened while he was jogging at night.

"Night jogging? Missing?"

Jiang Yu murmured repeatedly, his brows furrowing.

The supernatural events related to disappearances that I can recall from the Ultraman Tiga TV series.

Once it was the Crow People, and once it was the Red and Blue Cosmic People.

One option was to capture them and enslave them, while the other was to use them as a supplement to the warrior race.

Neither of them are good things for Earthlings.

If a large-scale invasion were to occur, it would create another problem.

These damn kidnappers!

Jiang Yu cursed inwardly. He had almost been kidnapped before, so he hated human trafficking, let alone aliens.

"I'll ask Megumi when I get back. I wonder which one it will be."

If I remember correctly, Gazort II appeared after the Crowman incident, but Jiang Yu couldn't be sure.

Reality isn't a TV show; it won't unfold exactly as the plot dictates.

But before that, let's eat ramen first.

Jiang Yu touched his flat stomach. Thanks to his constitution, he didn't feel hungry, but cravings were another matter, and he couldn't control them.

"So, Grandma's condition shouldn't be anything unusual?"

At the Obicra Noodle Shop, Jiang Yu sat in the lounge until nine o'clock.

Once all the raw materials were used up, Obik closed down for the day.

During the day, the old lady would also come over to help out and experience the lively atmosphere.

But it was mainly Obik and the two waiters he hired, a man and a woman, who were busy. There was no way to let the old lady, who was already quite old, be too busy.

After closing time, the waiter promptly went home, while Obik went to the lounge to talk to Jiang Yu.

When Jiang Yu asked if there had been any unusual events happening around the old woman recently, Obik gave a definite answer: no.

In that case, they are most likely not from the red and blue universe.

Despite being an old and powerful demon, Obik still possesses this kind of simple judgment.

However, we can't be completely sure. After all, there are so many people on Earth; maybe one of them is now living alone in an empty nest.

"Alright, you can go back by yourself now. Just remember to take good care of Grandma."

After saying that, Jiang Yu suddenly remembered the fact that he was in dire financial straits.

"Hey, Obik, do you have my card with you?"

"Sir, I'm here."

"Cough cough, not bad. Keep up the good work in the future. When I really make it big, I'll take you on a trip to space."

Jiang Yu took his special card, coughed, patted Obik on the shoulder, gave him a pep talk, and then left.

Obik watched Jiang Yu's departing figure, scratching his bald head in confusion.

Why does it feel a bit strange that the adult came back? He can go to space by himself now.

Never mind, I have to get to work tomorrow morning.

Tokyo at night, which should be bustling with activity, is now eerily quiet.

The skyscrapers were still lit up, but there were hardly any pedestrians on the streets.

Even in residential areas, the lights were almost always off.

"It seems this disappearance has really caused a lot of panic. I wonder if Daigo and the others have started investigating yet."

Jiang Yu can understand that the investigation into the Victory team has not yet yielded any results.

The GUTS team takes on all cases that may involve supernatural events, and in terms of priority, they will definitely deal with those monsters that are suspected of being able to grow to a gigantic size and cause large-scale damage first.

In the case of a missing person, if no one provides direct evidence, it will probably be handed over to the police station for investigation.

"I'm afraid even the police can't protect themselves."

Jiang Yu sighed and subconsciously stopped in his tracks.

There seems to be some commotion in the park ahead.

"Hey, how long are you going to stay out there? If you're really investigating some kind of supernatural event, that's something only the GUTS team can do."

In the park, Sachiko Nohara, dressed in thick clothes, looked helpless and quietly tried to dissuade the stubborn child in front of her.

She wouldn't have bothered with other people's business if it weren't for the child helping her.

This guy named Asuka Shin, although he is a family member of a martyr, is also a notorious problem child.

They always seem to cause trouble, and now they're even trying to investigate some kind of missing persons case, just like the GUTS team.

If supernatural beings truly exist, then that would be dangerous.

Sachiko Nohara's mind flashed to the image of a certain guy transforming, and even that guy couldn't easily deal with all supernatural beings.

If those two kids, who aren't even adults yet, were to run into them, wouldn't they just be easy prey?

"What do you know? I, Shin Asuka, am destined to join the GUTS team."

Asuka Shin walked ahead, pretending to observe carefully, and then retorted distractedly.

"That's for the future. Why are you being so stubborn now, kid?"

"I can't help but complain," Sachiko Nohara remarked, glancing at her watch.

It's so late, I'm sure Mom will scold me when I get home. It's all that little devil's fault.

"They all look down on me, even calling me a bastard without a father. I'm going to prove them wrong."

'

Asuka Shin clenched his fists, his small face full of resentment and anger, but he spoke with a sob in his voice and forcibly held back his tears.

He can't cry. His father used to say that a real man doesn't cry!

Once you show your vulnerable side, not only will you be ridiculed by others, but you will also be unable to protect the people you want to protect.

Thinking of his mother, who would sometimes hide away and cry secretly at home, Asuka Shin's eyes grew even more determined.

We must prove to them that even without their father, he is not someone to be trifled with!

Nohara Sachiko remained silent, which was also the reason why she subconsciously followed.

She had already experienced a childhood without a father.

"Something's wrong, hide quickly!"

Asuka Shin suddenly spoke urgently, his figure instantly dodging to the side, concealed by the bushes.

Sachiko Nohara subconsciously followed, secretly observing along with Shin Asuka.

"What is that?!"

"Shh, keep your voice down."

Asuka Shin made a shushing gesture, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

He really is a genius; such bizarre and grotesque individuals truly exist.

Beside the flower bed, a strange man with a crow's head, holding a long spear, slowly walked out.

That's strange, I clearly heard some noise coming from this side just now.

The next moment, Crowman was suddenly pleasantly surprised, because a drunken man was walking straight towards him.

Judging from his unsteady gait, he probably hadn't even realized what was going on. It really came to him without any effort at all.

The drunkard saw a strange man with a crow's head suddenly appear in front of him and realized something was wrong.

Will he run into the real culprit in the recent disappearance case?

Instinctively, I tried to run away, but I lost my footing and tripped over my right leg, falling to the ground.

Unable to dodge, the drunkard was desperately enveloped by the shrinking beam, his body shrunk and sucked into the shrinking gun.

Asuka Shin and Nohara Sachiko, who were secretly observing, didn't dare to breathe loudly. They hid behind the bushes, hoping that the crow people would leave quickly.

If they are discovered, they certainly won't be able to resist.

The crow-man paced back and forth for a while, and perhaps not finding anyone, finally chose to turn around and leave.

Asuka Shin also carefully took out his point-and-shoot camera, thinking that he could only gain people's trust by taking a picture.

Only those guys will know their own capabilities.

"Snap!"

The sound of a camera shutter suddenly rang out in the park, and Asuka Shin's face turned deathly pale. He had forgotten about it; the shutter sound hadn't been turned off.

Nohara Sachiko also looked desperate. They were almost safe when this trouble started again. Is Asuka Shin a brat with a natural tendency to court death?

Upon hearing the sound, the crow-man blinked his yellow eyes and let out a strange, loud laugh.

Luckily, he lingered here a little longer, otherwise he would have almost missed it. It seems there were two humans involved, which is quite a find.

"What do we do now?"

"Is that even a question? Run!"

Having been discovered, Shin Asuka and Sachiko Nohara exchanged a few words and then fled separately, one on the left and one on the right.

There's no other way at this point; we have to make sure everyone who can escape does.

If even one of them manages to escape, they can notify the winning team.

"Bang!"

A beam of shrinking light struck the spot where the two had been hiding, only to find they had missed their target.

The crowman leaped over the bushes, his leather shoes screeching against the ground. He glared angrily at the empty ground, but ultimately chose to chase after the bird letter.

The boss said that human males are easier to sell for manual labor.

After thinking it over, the crow man, carrying his shrinking gun and wearing leather shoes, began a chase with Asuka Shin.

I need to work hard so that I can have a better life when I go back!
