Special effects: Saving the world starting from becoming a Zergling

Chapter 9: The Case Brought About by the Appearing Red Insects

"You're Kabuto, right?

Kagami led Tendou to the alley outside the shop and questioned him.

"Although I have never seen anyone under Kabuto, that familiar aura can only be found in the Heavenly Dao."

For once, Kagami was wise, gazing at the Heavenly Path a few steps away from him.

"That's right." Tiandao nodded with a light laugh.

The sun is right there; if you ask it for the answer, it will surely tell you.

"Join ZECT!" Kagami clenched his fists at his chest and prayed to the heavens.

"Why? If it were an organization that existed to eliminate the Zerg, I would already be doing that."

Tendou leaned against the wall, slightly raising his eyes to look at Kagami. The rising sun hung above his head, bathing him in a golden glow.

"..." Kagami remained silent. He couldn't very well say that if he didn't join ZECT, the organization would eliminate him, could he?

"But it was built to eliminate the Zerg!" Kagami argued forcefully, a statement that made Yuuma, who was hiding to the side, shake his head.

Just because it's an organization established to eliminate the Zerg, does that mean it's necessarily correct?

"Boring." Kagami's stubbornness made Tendou shake his head. He hadn't come here to listen to Kagami's nonsense.

"If you tell me something about ZECT, I might consider it." He posed a question, letting Kagami continue.

Upon hearing this, Kagami's eyes lit up: "I know ZECT was established to eliminate the Zerg!"

Yuma helplessly covered his forehead, almost unable to hold back; these words were enough to trigger his aversion to stupidity.

"Kagami, Kagami. I knew you were a bit silly at first, but why did you become this silly?"

We have to give this idiot a good beating before he gets the steel bucket!

Heaven was clearly speechless after hearing this.

"I'm really a bit silly."

He sighed inwardly, stopped talking to Kagami, and turned to walk outside.

"Hey, Heavenly Dao! Wait for me! What else do you want to know? I'll tell you anything!"

Kagami was anxious to keep up with Tendou's pace and kept muttering in his ear.

The heavens did not drive Kagami away, letting him nag in his ear, while he himself remained indifferent and walked forward gracefully.

"Sigh, will we still be able to run into Tiandao tonight? I really need to have a serious talk with him."

After the two had walked away, Yuma emerged from the shadows of the alley and sighed as he watched Kagami walk away.

"Your younger brother is a perfect starting point, Kagami..."

Thinking about Kagami Ryo's imminent arrival, Yuuma touched his chin and decided to add a little more to the filling.

Since Heaven already knows his identity, he shouldn't kick himself to pieces as an alien insect.

"Only a deeper darkness can make Kagami see his own reality."

He didn't want to see Kagami, who was constantly getting the short end of the stick in the original series, so Koudou had to become a true god of war!

"It's all because of that riddle-solving Tendou that he protected Kagami too well." Yuuma had just finished complaining when he caught a glimpse of a red afterimage out of the corner of his eye.

"No way...?"

Yuuma stood frozen in place, staring at Kabuto's open breastplate and the Insect Transcendence Device hanging from its waist.

Fortunately, Kabuto only glanced at Yuuma before disappearing from Yuuma's sight again.

"They're using cheats to arrest me, they must be doing it on purpose," Yu Zhen thought to herself, lowered her head, and hurriedly left the alley.

"Tendo, think about it again?" Kagami was still clinging to Tendo's side, while Tendo was already eating miso mackerel again!

Looking at the delicious fish, Kagami couldn't resist the urge to eat more and wanted Xiaoxu to make another one.

"This is the last mackerel in the store, there aren't any more."

Xiao Xu shrugged: "Didn't you say you wanted to repay me with the best mackerel? Once you buy the mackerel, I'll use it to make another one."

He hadn't succeeded in asking for help, and he hadn't even eaten a few bites of mackerel. Kagami slumped onto the table, looking utterly dejected, as if he had lost all his strength.

"Don't forget, you're still on the early shift today, and you haven't finished your work yet!"

Xiao Xu patted Kagami on the shoulder and handed her the broom.

Just as Kagami got up to get to work, his phone rang. He held the broom between his armpits and answered the call.

"Kagami, something's happened!" This time it was Mr. Tadokoro who called personally.

"I understand!" Kagami was about to say something more when the phone was hung up.

"Let's hurry over there!" Kagami put down the broom and ran out of the restaurant amidst Xiaoxu's annoyance.

"I'll help Kagami!"

Yuzhen's figure flashed twice at the door before running into the restaurant.

"No problem, my job is similar to Kagami's." Under Xiaoxu's questioning gaze, Yuma picked up a broom and started cleaning the restaurant.

When Xiao Xu shifted her gaze from You Zhen, Tian Dao, who had been sitting there, had disappeared, leaving only an empty plate.

............

"Yu Xuejing has been arrested on suspicion of murdering a police officer."

Misaki explained to Kagami, who had just arrived, "However, one of the Tamayuri has escaped. Clearly, one of them is a Worgen!"

"I'm going right now!" After hearing the general situation, Kagami picked up the specially made thermal imaging device next to her and prepared to run out of the car.

"Calm down!" Misaki pulled Kagami back, leaving Kagami somewhat bewildered.

"Are you always this reckless?" Misaki asked, suppressing her anger.

"I......"

"The first time, you took the belt and went off blindly, almost dying there; the second time, you rushed off on your motorcycle, only to lose it!"

"I really don't know why ZECT would tolerate someone like you who keeps making mistakes."

Misaki's words deeply stung Kagami, but Kagami had to admit that Misaki was telling the truth.

"Misaki," Mr. Tadokoro called out to Misaki, making Misaki swallow the last few hurtful words.

For a moment, the entire car fell silent.

"Go ahead." Tadokoro looked at his two subordinates, feeling quite troubled.

"I'll prove it to you!" Kagami shook off Misaki's hand, jumped out of the car, and disappeared from their sight.

"Tadokoro—" Misaki turned around and looked at Tadokoro, who was sitting in the main seat, calling his name.

"He's just a newcomer, give him more opportunities." Tadokoro's words made Misaki sigh helplessly.

"He's just an ordinary person. If he keeps acting recklessly like this, he'll die at the hands of the alien insects sooner or later."

"Misa, we just need to follow the organization's orders. Headquarters rejected Kagami's request to be dismissed, understand?"

"......yes."

The headquarters has been moved out, what else can Misaki say?
