Ultraman Any Key: Qiming

Chapter 28 27. Lead the Way to the End

"This guy is no longer just acting on impulse; he's completely lawless."

"Doesn't he consider the consequences of doing this?"

After confirming that Minister Yin and his men had left, Chief of Staff Gonto's confidant, Saeki Rika, walked out from the dark and looked at Qi Ming, who was helping to pick up the bullet, with complicated eyes.

She happened to pass by and saw Qi Ming being stopped by the guards. Knowing that Chief of Staff Quan Teng wanted to win over Qi Ming, she took out her pass and wanted to take him in with her.

Under normal circumstances, of course, only pass holders can enter.

But the guard knew Saeki Rika and knew that she was the confidant of TPC's third-ranked staff officer Goto. He was afraid that if he refused, this woman would hold a grudge against him, so after some hesitation, he let him go.

In order to avoid causing misunderstandings and provoking extreme behavior from the hawks, Saeki Rika did not show up just now, but was just listening to the noise at the corner.

The more I listened, the more frightened I became.

This guy might be more skilled than they expected, and braver than what they saw that day.

Beating up a senior on the same team was nothing. He even dared to beat up the minister and even threatened the staff directly through him.

I don’t know whether it is a good thing to recruit such a person who has no taboos.

Some rules that are clearly stated can be disregarded, such as requiring a pass to enter.

But the unspoken rules formed by the tacit understanding of all parties must be followed, otherwise big trouble will arise.

But then again, Staff Officer He Zhi had already dared to send people to kill people in the staff office of the maritime base. If we were to talk about overturning the table, they were the first to start.

Thinking of this, Saeki Rika left here and wanted to report what she saw and heard today to Chief of Staff Goto in person.

In the room, Qi Ming, who was helping Tongshan pick up bullets, moved his ears slightly, knowing that she had left and he could speak freely.

"Staff Officer Kiriyama, did the Kirieloid shaman just say something to you?"

Kiriyama looked hesitant, not sure if telling Qi Ming the top secret contents of the Omega files would harm him.

Qi Ming: "Let me guess... you're talking about Nongmalte, right?"

Kiriyama was shocked: "Did Tuan tell you everything?"

Qi Ming remained noncommittal. "What did the Kirieloids say? Could it be something like 'Nonmalt are the natives of Earth, and Earth is the invader'?"

Kiriyama nodded grimly.

"That's really strange." Qi Ming touched his chin.

If this conclusion was reached through his own investigation, Qi Ming would accept it - after all, he was not a local and had no inner burden.

But if this conclusion comes from Kirieloid, it is really doubtful.

Would these charlatans be so kind as to tell you the whole truth?
Lies that are 70% true and 30% false are the easiest to believe.

Qi Ming pondered for a while and said:
"You can't disbelieve his words, but you can't trust everything."

"If the Nonmalt are the original inhabitants of Earth, then what about the super-ancient people from 30 million years ago and those underground people?"

In this fused universe, the "truth" in "Seven OV" may no longer be the only one.

Kiriyama nodded: "That makes sense."

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

"Huh...huh..."

The Kirieloid man, who looked like a gray-robed man, fled to an abandoned house, panting and in a state of disgrace.

Who on earth is that guy? Why could he threaten me like that...

He recalled the moment he met Qi Ming in his mind, feeling puzzled, afraid and angry.

"Kirieloids, you can't break through the human fortress either? Why don't you cooperate with us underground people? You need an insider."

At this moment, a cold female voice sounded, and the woman wearing sunglasses reappeared, but with only one arm. "Cooperate with you underground people?"

The underground woman said, "That's right. We will help you defeat the human armed forces. Then you can take the remaining humans to your world. You can make them believers or slaves, whatever you like. We, the underground people, will return to the world above ground."

The Kirieloids asked a pointed question: "Do you represent all the Underworld people?"

The Kyrieloid clan had come to this world in the Middle Ages and had some understanding of the Earth.

Just as humans have different races such as black, white and yellow, and have established various countries, there are also different power divisions among underground humans.

Among them, the underground people who worship the [Victori Crystal] and the underground people of the [underground city of Delos] should be the two strongest groups.

And in his eyes, this underground group that could only use Telestone as a facade could only be described as "nothing special".

The grey-robed man agreed on the surface, but in reality, he had other thoughts: "Cooperation is impossible. They don't have the qualifications, but being cannon fodder is no problem..."

They made an appointment and planned to take action tomorrow night.

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

On the other hand, Minister Yin, who had a military style, was strong-willed. After simply treating his wound, he went to see Staff Officer He Zhi.

"What happened?" Looking at his swollen right cheek, Staff Officer He Zhi was very surprised.

Minister Yin told the story word for word, and when he mentioned that his four subordinates were inexplicably disarmed, Staff Officer He Zhi was surprised.

"You mean to say that the new foreign member of the Victory Team subdued you all in an instant? Some of your subordinates are the elite of the elite."

Minister Yin nodded without making any excuses.

He Zhi couldn't believe it: "What is this, the legendary Kung Fu?"

Minister Yin said that he had done research in this area. He believed that China's "Kung Fu" was a product of closed-door development in the old era. It was far behind various modern fighting styles and had long been eliminated.

Usually those martial arts masters talk about how powerful they are, but they are never seen on the ring.

He Zhi: "So you were attacked by him?"

Minister Yin: "I really didn't take it too seriously. If I pay more attention next time, it won't be so embarrassing."

Minister Yin continued speaking, and when he talked about the letter mentioned by Qi Ming, Staff Officer He Zhi immediately understood what he meant.

He was almost saying, "If you can send someone to assassinate Chief of Staff Kiriyama, I can do the same to you."

He Zhi: "Is this his intention, or is it that Zhu Xingtuan of the Victory Team wants to protect his old superior by any means necessary? Do you think they have the ability to do so?"

Minister Yin: "You'd better talk to Staff Officer Tongshan again."

This man, who is also an extremist among the hawks, actually wanted his superiors to give in today, which is rare.

He Zhi leaned back in his chair and thought.

Minister Yin, who received his signal, not only failed in the assassination, but also had evidence seized. The doves will definitely take advantage of this to attack him.

However, Director Yu Tsuchihashi also knows about the Omega files, and he will definitely support me.

This matter can be turned from a big thing to a small thing, or from a small thing to nothing.

"Since Chief of Staff Kiriyama already knows part of the truth, he will definitely understand me, because we both deeply love humanity."

In the end, He Zhi accepted Minister Yin's advice.

He planned to talk to the victim, hoping to reach an agreement with Kiriyama and put the matter to rest.

The earth is now surrounded by wolves, and countless monsters and aliens are eyeing it covetously. The internal struggle cannot be expanded any further.

"As for that team member named Qi Ming... let's thoroughly investigate his background."
