Ultraman: It turns out this is the easy mode.

Cui Ming walked up to the Kahn alien, looked down at the gray-green-skinned alien covered in wounds but not completely unconscious, raised an eyebrow slightly, and said with a hint of surprise, "Hmm, this guy's got some strength. He's still alive even after the drill was destroyed."

During the chase, the special drill bit on the front of the off-road vehicle was deformed and detached due to repeated impacts with tree trunks and rocks. However, the Kahn alien was able to remain conscious despite being hit so many times and even being hit hard by the rear of the vehicle. His resilience was much stronger than Cui Ming had expected.

He crouched down, carefully examining the alien, Kahn—fragments of the suit he wore when disguised as the human "Sakamoto" remained on his body, grayish-green blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were filled with terror and resentment. He looked disheveled and pitiful, hmm... kind of...
Cui Ming stood up, wasting no more time, and shouted to Kotaro not far away, "Kotaro, take him away!"

“Okay!” Kotaro immediately stepped forward and took out specially made energy handcuffs from his waist. These handcuffs could suppress the energy fluctuations of aliens and prevent them from resisting or escaping.

He walked over to the alien, squatted down, and handcuffed him while looking at the alien who had tried to incite the villagers and even tried to give Orphi a stimulant. He couldn't help but smile, his tone both teasing and serious: "You're under arrest."

The moment the energy handcuffs were put on the Kahn alien, it felt all the strength drain from its body, leaving it without even the strength to struggle. Looking at Cui Ming's indifferent profile, then at Kotaro's smiling yet unwavering gaze, its despair finally erupted, its voice trembling with tears: "You bunch of lunatics!"

It couldn't understand why, when it only wanted to come to Earth to obtain Orpheus's energy, it was first chased and attacked by Showa-era troublemakers, then smeared by the Metropolitan Police Department, and finally chased and run over by Storm One in a car. Now, it didn't even have a chance to fight back before it was about to be arrested.

Tears streamed uncontrollably down the corners of the Kahn alien's eyes, mingling with the mud and blood on its face, making it look exceptionally pitiful. It watched as Cui Ming and Guang Taro lifted it up on either side and carried it towards the off-road vehicle, its heart filled with endless regret—if it had known Earth was so dangerous, if it had known Storm One was so ruthless, it would never have come to this planet!
Hearing the commotion, the surrounding villagers peeked out from behind the trees. Seeing that the Kahn alien had been arrested, they all breathed a sigh of relief. No one paid any more attention to the unfortunate alien and turned back to their fields to continue their farm work. For them, this little disturbance caused by the alien was finally over, and from now on, they could just focus on farming.

Meanwhile, Cui Ming and Guang Taro carried the Kahn alien towards the off-road vehicle. Sunlight filtered through the leaves and fell on them. Everything returned to calm, leaving only the Kahn alien's intermittent sobs gradually fading away in the forest.

Inside the interrogation room at the Sett base, the heavy metal door blocked out outside sounds, but it couldn't stop the piercing screams emanating from within: "Ugh ugh ugh ahh ...

The Kahn alien was strapped to a specially made metal chair. Its originally grayish-green skin was now deathly pale, and the wounds left from the previous impact were still bleeding. Its two arms had been removed and were lying in a metal tray next to it, with the blood at the cuts already congealed into dark green lumps.

Cui Ming sat behind the interrogation table, toying with a sharp energy dagger in his hand. His eyes were cold as he looked at the Kahn alien struggling and screaming in the chair. His tone was completely calm: "Tell me, what is your real purpose in coming to Earth? Besides wanting to make Orphi go berserk, do you have any other accomplices?"

The alien, Kahn, trembled with pain, cold sweat mingling with blood streaming down its forehead. Looking into Cui Ming's cold eyes, then at its own arm on the tray, its voice trembled with sobs and fear: "I...I just wanted to obtain Orphi's energy. I have no accomplices, really none."

“No?” Cui Ming stood up, walked up to the Kahn alien, and lightly ran his energy dagger across its cheek. “You think I’d believe that? Aliens always like to work in groups. You won’t tell the truth unless we completely dismantle you, will you?”

As for how the interrogation was conducted, one can only say that removing the guy's arms made the interrogation much easier—without the support of his arms, the Kahn alien's strength to struggle was greatly reduced, and the special devices or energy cores that might have been hidden in his arms were completely exposed, leaving him with no chance to use his special abilities to resist or transmit signals.

Kotaro, watching the scene unfold, found it somewhat cruel but said nothing—he knew that Cui Ming wasn't doing this to torture, but mainly to prevent the enemy from possessing special abilities. There had been instances before where aliens, using energy devices hidden in their limbs, had suddenly attacked during interrogations, injuring team members and escaping. Since then, when the Seth team interrogated suspicious aliens, they would first "remove" any limbs that might conceal abilities, just in case.

"Don't ask if it's too cruel," Cui Ming said without turning his head, as if he could see through Kotaro's thoughts. "Being merciful to the enemy is being cruel to yourself and your teammates. You never know how many secrets these aliens hold, or how many special abilities they possess that could kill us. Only by minimizing the risks can we get the information we want."

Upon hearing this, the Kahn alien cried even harder. It finally understood that it had no room for negotiation in Cui Ming's hands. Compared to being chased by the villagers and having the Metropolitan Police Department try to smooth things over, its current predicament was nothing.

"I'll talk! I'll talk!" The Kahn alien finally couldn't bear the pain and fear any longer and shouted, "I have an accomplice. He's in the abandoned factory in the west of the city. He's responsible for meeting me. We originally planned to let Orpheus go berserk and then seize Earth's energy core."

Upon hearing this, Cui Ming's eyes flashed with understanding. He gestured for the team members beside him to record the information, and then continued to ask, "Where exactly is the energy core located? How do you plan to seize it?"

The Kahn alien dared not hide anything any longer and told all the plans in detail. Every word it spoke was accompanied by a sharp pain, but it dared not stop—it was afraid that if it did not speak, the next thing to be ripped off would be its own leg.

The screams in the interrogation room gradually subsided, leaving only the intermittent confessions of the Kahn alien. Cui Ming looked at the completely broken alien before him without a trace of sympathy—he never showed mercy to these enemies who tried to destroy Earth and harm humanity, and "dismemberment interrogation" was just one of his many "risk prevention measures."

In the interrogation room, the sergeant led several team members in. They looked at the alien Kahn, whose arm had been dislocated and who was slumped in a chair, without a trace of pity in their eyes. In the Seth team, everyone knew the danger of aliens. Being soft-hearted towards these treacherous individuals would be cruel to Earth and to humanity.

Cui Ming stood up and handed the document containing the Kahn alien's confession to the sergeant: "The rest is up to you. This guy revealed that he has an accomplice in the abandoned factory in the west of the city. Make sure to eliminate them all cleanly, leaving no hidden dangers." The sergeant took the document, stood at attention, and saluted: "Yes, Captain! Mission accomplished!" After saying that, he led his team, escorting the Kahn alien out of the interrogation room, preparing to follow the clues to capture another alien.

Cui Ming rubbed his temples and walked out of the interrogation room: "Ruya, you did a great job this time! If it weren't for the birds you arranged to discover the abnormality of the Kahn aliens in advance and notify us in time, who knows how much trouble would have occurred. Now, tell me what you need."

"Haha, Cui, I was just doing what I was supposed to do. If you really need anything, just prepare a few jars of good wine for me. My drinking cravings have returned recently! Father wants to drink."

Cui Ming's lips curled up slightly, a rare smile appearing on his face: "No problem, I'll deliver it myself!"

Father-in-law: Don't come any closer!!!
If only monsters could be like Orpheus!
After all, Cui Ming really enjoyed listening to Orpheus's songs. Every time Orpheus played music with her unique "voice", Cui Ming would feel exceptionally calm inside, as if all his fatigue and stress could be dispelled.

As for the hurtful news about Orpheus, Cui Ming knew perfectly well—all he could say was, even Orpheus wanted to slap him, so there was definitely something wrong with his song.

But it wasn't Orphie's fault at all; it was those with ill intentions who shattered Orphie's inner peace and caused the chaos.

Carrying two jars of fine sake, Cui Ming stood outside the courtyard gate of Ru Ya's mother's house and knocked on the wooden door. A few seconds later, the door was carefully opened a crack, and Ru Ya's father-in-law peeked out. When he saw Cui Ming outside the door, his eyes instantly panicked, and his already somewhat hunched body shrank even further.

"Young Cui is here! Come in quickly." The father-in-law spoke politely, but his voice trembled slightly, and his hand shaking as he opened the door. Cui Ming had brought wine to Ru Ya's parents' house again, which was a "sweet burden" for the father-in-law—it was a good thing for his son-in-law to bring wine, but this son-in-law was Cui Ming, the one who exuded murderous aura and could strike fear into the hearts of aliens.

As Cui Ming entered the courtyard, the sharp aura emanating from him, honed from years of battle, instantly silenced the chirping birds. Even the flowers and plants in the corners seemed intimidated by this murderous intent, their leaves drooping listlessly. His father-in-law followed behind Cui Ming, his eyes frequently glancing at the energy weapon tucked into his waistband and the Star Guide weapon slung across his back, his heart pounding with anxiety.

The main thing was that Cui Ming was genuinely terrifying, especially his murderous aura—it wasn't just ordinary "fierceness," but the deathly aura that had settled after countless battles with aliens and monsters, stained with countless drops of blood and gunpowder. Every time Cui Ming approached, the father-in-law felt as if an invisible knife was held to his throat, and he didn't even dare to breathe too heavily.

"Dad, Cui is here!" Ru Ya heard the noise and came out of the house. Seeing her father's nervous look, she couldn't help but laugh and tease him, "Dad, do you have to be so afraid of Cui? He's not going to eat you."

The father-in-law sighed and said in a low voice, "What do you know? Look at his eyes, his aura. I always feel like he's about to pull out a weapon to 'deal with' someone. It's only because your Star Guide weapon is basically made of insects that it can ease the atmosphere a little. Otherwise, I guess Ruya's family would be scared to tears."

Indeed, the Star Guide weapon on Cui Ming's back was covered with tiny, metallic-looking insects. Although it looked somewhat eerie, it had a more "strange" feel than a "deadly" feel compared to the energy weapon at Cui Ming's waist that could pierce through steel plates. If Cui Ming had only brought the energy weapon with him, his father-in-law felt he might not even be able to hold a cup of tea properly.

Cui Ming placed the sake on the table and, seeing his father-in-law's nervous expression, softened his tone for once: "Dad, don't be nervous. I just came to deliver some sake and to check on you and Mom." But even though he deliberately concealed his aura, the murderous intent emanating from him couldn't be easily dispelled. His father-in-law still didn't dare to meet his gaze and could only nod repeatedly: "Alright, alright, sit down. I'll make you some tea."

Meanwhile, on the branches of trees outside the courtyard, several insect-like aliens were hiding behind the leaves, trembling as they watched Cui Ming in the courtyard.

Of course, insect-type aliens are the most afraid of Cui Ming. After all, they have a kind of fear based on their status. The aura of "destroying all threats" on Cui Ming's body just suppresses the insect-type aliens' instinct for "population reproduction and expansion". In front of Cui Ming, they are like small insects encountering their natural enemy, not daring to move an inch, let alone get close to the yard.

Of course, this aura of destruction refers specifically to Cui Ming's attack on insects.
after all
Cui Ming killed too many insects
Just how many insects and aliens did they kill?
Hmm. This is completely impossible to calculate.
Who will remember how many enemies they created?
Later, even Choi Myung himself became numb to it.
Watching her father hurriedly go to make tea, Ru Ya glanced at the innocent-looking Cui Ming and couldn't help but laugh, saying, "Look at you, you scared my dad so much. Can you tone down your murderous aura next time?"

Cui Ming shrugged helplessly: "I'm used to it. After spending so much time on the battlefield, it's not so easy to suppress one's aura. Besides, I didn't do anything."

"Indeed. But there's nothing I can do; the murderous aura emanating from you is truly frightening."

He didn't know that, to his father-in-law, his "not doing anything" was enough to intimidate him simply by standing there. After all, not everyone could calmly face a son-in-law who exuded murderous intent and could easily take down aliens. (End of Chapter)
