Ultraman Any Key: Qiming

Chapter 112 108. Undercover Agent of the Universe
"Isn't it just hitting the target every time? What's so great about it? I can do the same when I'm in good shape!"

Shan Zhong, who was full of anger, returned to the command room and complained there.

Huimei asked, "His name is Hirota? Does he look like this?"

She tapped on the keyboard and a man's face appeared on the home screen.

Kishida: "Yes, that's him. He's very arrogant and rude, even more arrogant than Qi Ming... I don't believe he has Qi Ming's ability."

Qi Ming touched his chin: "Guangtian...it turned out to be him."

This man appears in the 0.1th episode of "Ultra Seven" "The Second Kill".

In the original play, he prayed secretly in order to defeat his friend Soga in the shooting competition - "As long as I can win the competition, I will sell my friends and my soul at any cost."

So the Pega people answered his prayers and helped him cheat and win.

After winning this victory, Hirota mocked Soga while holding the trophy. Afterwards, he fulfilled his promise and helped the Pega people invade the earth, killing several of his colleagues.

In this world, this scumbag is in the defense force?

It’s so pure. This world really “will not let any bad guy go.”

Kishida urged, "Go ahead, Qi Ming! Let him know how good you are! We at TPC are the best."

Qi Ming made an "OK" gesture.

After humiliating the members of the Victory Team, Hirota returned to his residence in the Defense Force with a refreshed mind.

"Sure enough, today's humans are no match for me." He felt secretly happy.

After signing a contract with the alien, he has recently become famous thanks to the secret help of the Pega alien.

"Ryu Junya", "Aihara Ryu"... these guys became the steps that I stepped on to reach the peak of glory.

"Not only do I want to be number one in the defense forces, but I also want to win all the individual events in the military exercises tomorrow, becoming number one in Japan, and then number one in the world..."

At this moment, the voice of the Pega people appeared in the room: "Hirota-kun, it's time for you to fulfill your promise."

Guangtian shuddered: "What do you want me to do?"

Pega: "We have already found out that Dr. Segawa, who created the 'Super Weapon R1', will be visiting the Defense Forces and TPC."

"As long as you perform well in the next competition, you will be qualified to serve as Dr. Segawa's guard."

"When the time comes, you can take the opportunity to get rid of him, and we Pega people will have nothing to worry about."

Hirota nodded: "Okay, I'll do anything as long as it means I can win."

"I will make you win. I look forward to your performance." The Pega people in the dark were very satisfied.

It has the ability of hypnosis and can give intelligent creatures powerful psychological hints to make them obey it.

But if you encounter someone with strong will and who resists desperately, such as Thorga in the original drama, you will need to use the high-tech facilities on the spacecraft to complete the hypnosis.

Fortunately, due to his morbid pursuit of victory, Hirota was completely defenseless against them, and the power of his remote hypnosis was enough, without the need for a machine.

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

Soon, the day of the joint military exercises between TPC and the Defense Forces arrived.

The venue selected for the exercise is extremely large, and most of the personnel of the TPC naval base are seated in the western area, with more than 10,000 people.

There are more people on the defense side, with several black phalanxes of tens of thousands of people. They come here to observe the performance of the elites on both sides.

Director Yu Tsuchihashi and Staff Officer He Zhi sat high on the podium, together with Commander Sawara of the Defense Force and Military Attaché Saijo, looking down at everything below.

After some superficially polite but veiled speeches, the opening ceremony concluded and the individual events began. First up was the shooting event, with Yamanaka, representing TPC, taking the lead, scoring eight ten-rings, one nine-ring, and one six-ring.

"What happened? It seems like something stung my hand."

Yamanaka's face looked grim, his hands were shaking because of this, so the last shot was extremely crooked.

After returning, he felt a little ashamed to face his teammates.

Zhu Xingtuan comforted: "It's okay, everyone makes mistakes sometimes."

Saijo Nagi also said: "With Qi Ming here, don't worry."

Soon, Hirota came on the court.

Ten times of ten rings caused cheers from the whole audience!
"Okay, I am the strongest!" Guangtian was secretly excited.

Military Attaché Saijo was very pleased with this: "As expected, the quality of our professional soldiers is unmatched."

This run made Staff Officer He Zhi very unhappy.

Soon it was Qi Ming's turn. He pulled the trigger easily and also hit ten rings out of ten.

During this process, he also felt as if his wrist was stung, but he remained steady.

Staff Officer He Zhi breathed a sigh of relief: "It's not that no one can compare to him."

Military Attaché Nishijo's expression stiffened. "It seems your competitor has put a lot of effort into shooting, but Hirota is an all-around athlete. He's also far ahead in other weightlifting events."

But Hirota himself is not so confident.

He looked at Qi Ming who was walking off the field to receive cheers from other victorious team members, with a look as if he had seen a ghost.

What's going on? Why is he the same as me!
Qi Ming was also observing him.

"Something is wrong. Is he in a hypnotic state?" The ability to see through things took effect.

It seems that this Hirota, just like in the original drama, has become a lackey of the Pega people at this time.

Suddenly, important news came.

Dr. Segawa's assistant, Dr. Asano, an expert in astrobiology, was just assassinated at the airport!
Qi Ming: "Dr. Asano, you are the female doctor who chose Kielon as the experimental site."

Joint military exercises were suspended and emergency meetings were held on both sides.

At TPC, Staff Officer He Zhi frowned as he looked at the intelligence he had received:
"Not only Dr. Asano, but three people from Dr. Segawa's research team also died unexpectedly just now."

"This can't be a coincidence. Someone is trying to prevent Super Weapon R1 from appearing again!"

"Dr. Segawa's schedule has been changed. He will depart today and arrive in Japan immediately to accept our protection."

"The defense force has sent Guangtian and Qi Ming. You will represent TPC to protect the doctor. I believe you are no worse than anyone else."

"The exercise is now suspended. You must leave immediately and take the doctor to the exercise site first."

Qi Ming nodded, thinking that the plot had returned to the starting point very smoothly.

Hirota will definitely take this opportunity to assassinate the doctor, and I can take this opportunity to expose his true identity.

However, this process and technique need to be carefully considered.

In the original drama, Soga, who was shot by Hirota and almost died, also determined his identity.

But what Soga did was - he didn't tell anyone, didn't leave any backup plan, went to Guangtian's room alone, and then fell into the trap and died at the speed of light, and was also caught and brainwashed.

Of course Qi Ming would not give it away so easily. At this moment he suddenly had a "dishonest idea".
