Ultraman: It turns out this is the easy mode.

The members of the Victory Team were all elites who had undergone rigorous selection. They were as clear-headed as mirrors and could distinguish right from wrong very clearly. No one thought that Cui Ming's handling of the developer's affairs was excessive. On the contrary, they were all happy for the workers.

Lina sat at the control panel, twirling a pen in her hand, the tip lightly tapping on the table. Her tone was full of disdain for the developers: "Exactly! I heard they even think TPC has to protect them. What a dream! These guys who treat human life like dirt should be taught a lesson, otherwise they'll dare to push workers into the fire again next time!"

Xincheng leaned against the wall, arms crossed, brows furrowed, his voice deeper than usual: "I have relatives back home who were cheated by such heartless bosses. They worked hard for half a year, only to not get their wages and were threatened not to speak out. Instructor Cui is doing this to stand up for those workers who have nowhere to turn for justice, and he did the right thing!"

Hori pushed up his glasses, his fingers swiping rapidly across his tablet—he had just pulled up the relevant legal provisions regarding the developer's illegal construction, his tone professional and assertive: "From a legal perspective, circumventing the TPC ban and forcing workers onto the island constitutes illegal detention and endangering public safety; from a moral perspective, they are trading other people's lives for their own exorbitant profits, and they don't deserve any sympathy. Instructor Choi's handling of the situation, while direct, was absolutely satisfying. I would have done the same!"

Deputy Captain Zongfang stood aside, not speaking as passionately as the team members. He simply looked at the information about Jiuliang Island on the big screen and nodded slightly. He knew better than anyone that dealing with people who crossed the line by insisting on "procedural justice" would only harm more innocent people. Cui Ming's decisiveness could eliminate the hidden dangers at the root.

"An instructor is an instructor; he never slacks off when it comes to doing things!" Daigo put down the training manual in his hand, his tone full of admiration. "If it were someone else, they might still be haggling and negotiating with those developers, only to let them find a lawyer to exploit the loophole and then turn around and harm others."

Hearing this, Lina couldn't help but laugh and added, "So the instructor did the right thing! This kind of scum needs to be taught a lesson so they'll remember—not all money can be earned, and not everyone can be bullied!"

The team members chatted amongst themselves, feeling increasingly relieved as they spoke. There was no argument in the command room, only a clear judgment of right and wrong: the developer's "sending people to their deaths" behavior deserved to be punished! Instructor Cui Ming did absolutely the right thing!

Just then, Megumi walked in, holding a new mission briefing. Looking at the team members' indignant expressions, she gently tapped the command console table to signal everyone to be quiet: "Alright, that's enough about the developer. I'm letting you know so that you can understand how to stand when you encounter people who disregard life. The rest is not our concern."

The team members immediately stopped their discussion and all looked at Megumi, waiting for her next instructions—they knew that their captain's sudden mention of this matter meant there must be a follow-up mission.

Kijima walked to the large screen, tapped the touchscreen, and brought up a satellite map of Jiuliang Island. The red marker in the center of the island was particularly eye-catching: "However, this incident also serves as a reminder to us—the geological activity on Jiuliang Island has become increasingly abnormal recently, and the monitoring department has repeatedly detected traces of the Gakuma brothers' activities. Cui Ming has decided that he will personally go to Jiuliang Island to negotiate with the Gakuma brothers to see if an agreement of non-interference can be reached."

"A strange and bizarre style?!"

As soon as Megumi finished speaking, Horii jumped up from his seat, his voice filled with disbelief, excitement, and envy. He had been researching monster language communication technology for almost two years, always hoping to have the opportunity to communicate with monsters personally and decipher their behavioral codes. He never expected that Choi would achieve his goal first, which excited him even more than if he had completed the mission himself!
Daigo and Rena were also taken aback for a moment, then showed curious expressions—although they knew Choi Myung was exceptionally capable, they didn't expect him to be able to negotiate with monsters; Shinjo raised an eyebrow, his tone filled with anticipation: "Negotiating with monsters? That's exciting enough, I wonder if the instructor can succeed!" Seeing the team members' reactions, Kijima smiled gently: "Choi Myung has his methods. Our next task is to cooperate with him in conducting geological monitoring of Kyura Island to ensure that no accidents occur during the negotiations."

The team members immediately straightened their backs and replied in unison, "Understood!"—Although they didn't have the opportunity to participate in the negotiations themselves, they were still filled with anticipation to be able to protect Cui Ming's mission.

Just as the Victory Team was discussing the negotiations with Gakuma, the door to the command room was suddenly pushed open, and Choi Myung and Saeko Busujima walked in side by side—both of them still had bloodstains on their faces that had not been wiped clean. Choi Myung was clutching a blood-stained towel in his hand, and although Saeko Busujima's sword was already sheathed, there were still dark red marks left on the edge of the scabbard.

Megumi was the first to react, raising an eyebrow slightly. Her tone was knowing, but she still asked, "Hmm? What's going on here? Did you just finish dealing with the developer's issues?"

Daigo and Rena froze on the spot, their eyes unconsciously falling on the bloodstains on their faces. Daigo couldn't help but ask, "Um, Instructor, what's this blood on you?" He didn't finish his sentence, but he guessed that it must be the accomplices of those uncooperative developers causing trouble again.

Cui Ming didn't explain much, but simply crumpled the towel in his hand into a ball and threw it precisely into the trash can in the corner, his tone as calm as if he had just finished dinner: "It's nothing, it's all taken care of. Those accomplices who refused to confess have finally behaved themselves."

Saeko Busujima stood beside Choi Myung, raising her hand to wipe away a trace of blood from her cheek with her fingertips, a faint smile on her lips—clearly, the "dealing" just now was another satisfying "activity" for her.

Cui Ming glanced at everyone in the command room. Seeing that they were still staring at the bloodstains on the two men, he raised his hand and tapped the table next to him. His tone became a bit more serious: "Alright, now is not the time to talk about this. The developer's matter has been settled. It's time to make preparations for the matter of Gakuma."

Ju Jianhui immediately composed herself, stepped forward and handed over a geological report of Jiuliang Island: "We just finished discussing it, and the team members will cooperate to carry out geological monitoring. The equipment you need is also being prepared."

Cui Ming took the report, quickly flipped through a few pages, and paused his fingertip on the mark of "frequent Gakuma activity area": ​​"Hmm, we'll set off first thing tomorrow morning. Jui-jing, take the monster flow support equipment you researched earlier; it might come in handy." (End of Chapter)
