In the command room, Hoshikawa slumped in a chair, his eyes vacant.

He spent two days finally memorizing all the contents of those forms.

Just then, the phone rang.

Kishida Fumio, who was sitting next to the phone, answered it: "Hello, this is the Fukui Team."

A child's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Is this Team Fearless? I saw an alien!"

Fumio Kishida spoke casually, his eyes fixed on the news on his phone: "Really? Could you please tell me your name and location, and what an alien looks like?"

Ichiro: "My name is Ichiro. I saw an alien in my own house. The alien was very ugly."

Fumio Kishida was speechless. What kind of adjective is "very ugly"? You can't find any aliens just by saying "very ugly".

Kishida: "Hey kid, if you give false information, your parents will be notified."

Ichiro immediately became anxious: "I'm not lying, I really saw aliens. They came down from a round spaceship, and there were three things on the spaceship that looked like antennas."

"They also have something that looks like a gun. I saw them use that gun to shrink people and put them in bottles."

"Please wait a moment." Fumio Kishida put the phone aside, picked up a pen and a piece of white paper, and began to draw on it.

Hoshikawa quietly walked behind Kishida Fumio and watched him paint.

"Alright! Absolutely perfect." Kishida Fumio capped his pen and picked up the blank sheet of paper with satisfaction.

On the white paper, there is a circle with three lines and an ugly human figure. The person in the figure is holding a gun and has a bottle at his waist with a small person inside the bottle.

Xingchuan was speechless; he felt that even an elementary school student's drawing would be better than the one in front of him.

Yuka Ota came up behind Fumio Kishida, looked at the contents of the white paper, and asked curiously, "Kishida, what are you drawing?"

Fumio Kishida: "A child called and said he saw an alien. This is the portrait I drew based on his description."

"He said the aliens had a round spaceship with three antenna-like objects on it, and they also had a shrinking gun that could shrink humans."

Upon hearing this, Hoshikawa began searching his mind for aliens who used shrinking guns.

In his memory, there are the three-faced monster "Dada" from "Ultraman", the kidnapping alien "Lebik Alien" from "Ultraman Tiga", and the space pirate "Barossa Alien" from "Ultraman Zeta".

The first two aliens used their own planet's technology to create the shrinking gun, while Barossa's shrinking gun was stolen, specifically from Dada.

The problem is, we don't know which alien the kid was talking about.

Thinking of this, Hoshikawa picked up the phone: "Hello, kid, are you still there?"

Ichiro: "My name is Ichiro, and I have a name."

Hearing that Ichiro was still on the phone, Hoshikawa voiced the question that was on his mind: "Okay, okay, Ichiro, what color were the aliens you saw?"

Dada's body is white, Lebik's body is black, and Barossa's body is dark gold.

As long as Ichiro can accurately describe the color of an alien's body, he will know which alien it is.

Ichiro thought about it carefully for a moment, then said uncertainly, "They seem to be black, and their heads look like bird heads. Oh, and they also have yellow eyes."

The case is solved. Ichiro saw a Lebik alien, also known as a crow person.

Crow people typically act in groups; they are ruthless, cunning, and indifferent to life.

Moreover, the Crow People came to Earth with only one purpose: to capture humans using shrinking guns.

Being so efficient, they must have already captured quite a few humans. With so many people missing, the police station must have records.

Hoshikawa: "Yuka, check if there have been any recent cases of multiple people going missing."

"Okay." Yuka Ota returned to her computer and began searching.

"Seriously, do you really believe that kid? A spaceship landed on Earth, but the radar didn't detect it at all." Kishida Fumio was skeptical of Ichiro's words.

Hoshikawa rolled his eyes where Kishida Fumio couldn't see: "Still believe in that radar? Dr. Iwamoto is still in jail."

He wouldn't believe someone who had been hypnotized by aliens didn't tamper with the radar system.

"Found them! The police department released an updated report yesterday; someone has been missing for several days now."

Yuka Ota projected the report onto the big screen.

Aihara Ryu, who had been training regularly, put down his dumbbells and stood in front of the screen: "Is this for real? In just a few days, dozens of people have gone missing."

Hoshikawa glanced around and found that the missing people included men, women, and children of all ages. It could be said that the Crow People were not picky at all and basically captured everyone.

Yuka Ota: "According to the Metropolitan Police Department's report, these people all disappeared at night, and all in places without surveillance cameras."

Fumio Kishida: "That is to say, the aliens that appeared this time are nocturnal creatures, and they only hunt humans at night."

"Oh, right, there's something else very strange, which is this article." Yuka Ota projected another article onto the screen.

The article is titled "Five researchers from the Cosmic Research Institute have mysteriously disappeared and have not yet been found."

[Cosmic Research Institute], [5 researchers have gone missing].

Combining these two conditions, Hoshikawa immediately thought of the three-faced monster "Dada" that appeared in episode 28 of Ultraman.

In the storyline, Dada needs the internal organs of six high-quality humans to make specimens.

Although he was defeated by the original Ultraman later, this episode still scared many people after it aired, especially Dada, whose face was burned off, which left a deep impression.

Are Earthlings some kind of hot commodity? The Dada come to capture Earthlings, and the Lebik aliens also come to capture Earthlings.

In ancient times there was triangular trade; today there is interstellar trade.

At that moment, Dan Moroboshi arrived at the command room and immediately saw the report on the large screen.

"Captain, you've arrived." Yuka Ota quickly told Dan Moroboshi the whole story.

After understanding everything, Dan Moroboshi frowned: "From your description, the aliens that appeared this time use shrinking guns to capture humans and only travel at night."

After learning about the habits of the Crow People, Fumio Kishida and Ryu Aihara suggested taking the initiative and acting as bait to lure them out of their hole.

Dan Moroboshi thought the plan was feasible and immediately agreed to it.

Dan Moroboshi: "Yukana, have the Metropolitan Police Department issue a notice that, starting today, all companies must close early, and after 6 p.m., there should be as few people on the streets as possible."

Before the operation began, Hoshikawa approached Ota Yuka and asked her to check how many car accidents had occurred on the highway near the Space Research Institute.

If the frequency of the car accidents is abnormal, it means that the disappearance of the five researchers was Dada's doing.
