Special effects: Saving the world starting from becoming a Zergling

Chapter 18: The Beginning of Capturing Kabuto!

Kagami Arata looked at Kagami Riku, who had rolled down the car window, somewhat taken aback.

Under normal circumstances, Kagami Riku, as the Metropolitan Police Department Chief, is extremely busy, and Kagami Arata rarely sees his father.

"The incident at the Metropolitan Police Department last time took me a lot of effort," Kagami Riku said, looking at Kagami Shin with a hint of helplessness in his voice.

"I just wanted to go and take a look..." Kagami wouldn't tell him that he was going to investigate the Jade Snow Well, but he was knocked unconscious before he even got inside.

In the end, he was the only one found around the entire Metropolitan Police Department. As the victim, he was naturally arrested as the perpetrator.

If he hadn't been injured and his father hadn't been of such high status, he would have been imprisoned for several years.

"Shin-chan, it's time for you to get down to business. Akira is missing... Our Kagami family needs a capable successor."

Seeing Kagami Shin's appearance, Kagami Riku, as a father, couldn't help but say something.

"I know without you telling me." Kagami Arata's expression darkened further when his father mentioned his younger brother.

Encouraged by his words, Xiao Liang tried baseball again, but was killed by a worm.

Just two days ago, he personally ended the alien insect that had transformed into his younger brother.

The guilt, anger, and sense of loss felt here cannot be explained in just a few words.

Seeing Kagami's dejected look, Kagami Riku felt a pang of pity: "What happened to Ryo, it's not your fault."

It was my fault as a father. I knew about the existence of the alien insects, but I still couldn't spare the manpower to protect Xiao Liang.

Kagami Riku kept these thoughts to himself and did not tell Kagami Shin these things.

"Don't mention your brother anymore, it's all in the past." Kagami Shin's clenched fist loosened, looking rather powerless.

He waved to his father, "Father must have other things to do, so I won't take up any more of your time. Besides, I haven't finished my work yet."

He knelt on one knee and continued writing stroke by stroke on the signboard in front of the store.

Kagami Riku's car started and drove forward. Kagami Riku sat in the back seat, closed the window, but felt somewhat uneasy.

"Kagami Arata... you've grown quite a bit. I wonder if you can live up to the name of Steel Fighter?"

Thinking about the Kamen Rider project from decades ago, he inexplicably felt a greater sense of anticipation for what would happen next.

Kagami Arata, who was at work, didn't think much of it. To him, it was just an ordinary encounter with his father, and he had no idea that his father had come specifically to meet with him.

"Kagami!"

Before long, Xiao Xu called out to him from afar. He looked up and found that Misaki was also not far away.

He was flattered to see two beautiful women looking at him at the same time.

"What's going on? Why is everyone rushing to see me today?" Kagami asked, somewhat surprised. "Have I become as charming as Tendo?"

"What are you thinking about?" A heavy slap landed on Kagami's back, causing her to scream in pain as she grimaced and rubbed her back.

"Yuuma, could you go a little easier on me?" Kagami complained, her fantasy shattered.

"Look at you, you practically have the word 'pervert' written all over your face." Yuzhen looked at him with disdain.

"What? How could I!" Kagami shouted in rebuttal, but couldn't help rubbing the tip of his nose with one hand.

"Liars always like to rub the tip of their nose," Xiao Xu said with a smile as she walked over.

"I thought Kagami was very sad, and I wanted to come and comfort her, but I didn't expect you to still have time to think about these things." Misaki also walked over with a smile, crossed her arms, and questioned Kagami.

"So you came here to comfort me?"

Kagami ignored that long passage and precisely captured the words in the Misaki dialect.

"Actually, I'm fine, I'm just a little confused." Kagami turned to look at the sky, looking quite lost.

"Instead of wasting time on this, you might as well deal with more aliens..." Misaki was stopped by Kagami before she could finish her sentence.

Seeing the puzzled expressions on Xiaoxu and Youzhen's faces, Misaki realized that she had said something she shouldn't have in her haste.

"I'm sorry, Misaki is my colleague. What I just said was confidential work information and I can't disclose it to outsiders." Kagami's brain worked at lightning speed, quickly patching up Misaki's slip of the tongue.

"Oh..." Xiaoxu nodded thoughtfully, "Kagami hasn't been there for two days, has she?"

"Yes, I've come here to let Kagami return to work at the company," Misaki said solemnly to Yuuma and Xiaoxu.

"He hasn't come to work for two days, causing considerable losses to the company."

As soon as she finished speaking, Kagami pulled her away, and the two went to the other side to whisper to each other.

"Playing mysterious again." Tiandao, who had just arrived, shook his head and walked into the shop. Everyone here knew about the alien insects.

However, Kagami is unaware of Yuuma and Xiaoxu's true identities, so she has no choice but to resort to this method.

Yuzhen picked at his ear; at such a short distance, as an alien insect, he could hear it perfectly clearly.

"Hey, Misaki. What do you mean I caused the company a lot of losses?!" Kagami complained.

"Because of your strike, we lost our source of information about that strange insect. And the plan to capture Kabuto has also been delayed as a result."

Why?

Faced with Kagami's bewildered question, Misaki glared at him: "According to the latest news, Kabuto and that Worm are likely connected. Until their connection is confirmed, all activities are suspended!"

Oh, so that's what it is...

Kagami knew about this when she killed the Worm that Kagami Ryo had transformed into.

The reason why there is so little information about that alien insect is partly because he is deliberately spreading rumors.

He didn't believe in the alien insect, but he believed in the will of Heaven. He was afraid that if he really found out something, he would disrupt the plans of Heaven.

After all, the power of ZECT is still terrifying.

"That's really terrible." Kagami nodded, suppressing the urge to laugh.

"So you need to produce some results quickly; headquarters has already sent people down to reorganize the operation."

Fearing that Kagami might not understand the seriousness of the situation, Misaki quickly added.

"Understood, I'll do it as soon as possible," Kagami replied, turning and entering the shop.

Misaki watched Kagami enter the store, and was about to chase after her to say something more when she was interrupted by the voice coming from her earpiece.

"Misa, rejoin the team immediately. The plan to capture Kabuto has officially begun!"

Her expression changed, and without paying attention to Yuzhen leaning against the door, she hurriedly left.

"Is it finally here?" Yuzhen scratched her head, deciding to take the first step in the Heavenly Dao and kill that idiot.

However, we still need to inform the Heavenly Dao about this matter to avoid any misunderstandings.

He wanted to spend more time with Xiao Xu, and didn't want to be chased all over the world by the misunderstanding of the Heavenly Dao.
