Ultraman Any Key: Qiming

Chapter 58 57. I am the only one who puts pressure on others

Nothing happened in the next few days, and Qi Ming's Star Points reached 4 o'clock.
Huimei discovered that Zhu Xingtuan's expression was somewhat unnatural when facing Qi Ming these days.

Qi Ming was doing everything as usual, and was keeping an eye on the situation at Sediq Technology Company.

When he heard that Masaki Keigo was caught off guard and was in a panic and looked gloomy when the investigation team arrived, he was very satisfied.

Something new happened that afternoon.

Unusual vibrations were reported at a quarry in the suburbs of Tokyo, and the Victory Team was requested to investigate.

Zhu Xingtuan coughed and said, "Kishida, Qi Ming and I will go together. Is that okay?"

He looked at Qi Ming and asked for his opinion.

Qi Ming looked normal: "I'm fine."

Kishida nodded in agreement.

On the way to the hangar, Kishida looked around and saw that no one was around. He whispered, "Let's talk it over later. Fighting in the cabin is no joke."

He was worried that if things went wrong, Qi Ming would directly "fly over the air".

Qi Ming: "Am I a very bad person?"

Kishida nodded subconsciously, then quickly shook his head.

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

The yellow Feiyan No. 1 was flying through the stratosphere. Qi Ming, who was sitting in the back seat, heard the sharp whistling sound of the wings tearing through the air, and his eyes were focused on Kishida's hand pulling the control lever.

"Could he really see it?" This thought flashed through Kishida's mind.

If it were in the past, he would definitely say it was impossible.

But after seeing Qi Ming's various methods, he began to waver.

He cleared his throat and began to explain: "This is the joystick. It adjusts the control surfaces on the wings and tail..."

As he was speaking, the voice of Zhu Xingtuan rang out:
"Change of plan, a monster has appeared in that quarry!"

"Prepare for the attack. Saijo and his men will be here soon in Unit 2."

Well, no need to investigate, the monster has already emerged from underground.

Kishida immediately drove at full speed. When he arrived at the place, Qi Ming recognized the figure waving a whip in front of him at a glance.

It's Gudun! He would never mistake this hardworking monster.

Kishida: "I'm Kishida. I've arrived at the scene in the Hibiki-1. What's the evacuation situation for the people on the ground?"

Emi at the base: "It has been reported that all personnel have evacuated."

Kishida: "Okay!"

He planned to show off his skills in front of Qi Ming, a "flying novice", and let him see the superb skills of his predecessors.

"Boo! Hah! Hah!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Feiyan No. 1 continuously fired green sharp cannons, causing sparks to fly all over Gudun and causing it to shake.

It cannot fly and has almost no anti-aircraft means, so it can only passively take the beating.

After being beaten unilaterally for a while, Gudun realized that he could not stay there any longer and prepared to dig the ground to escape back to the surface.

"This is a quarry in the suburbs. There are not many buildings around and the people have been evacuated. It's a perfect opportunity to use the powerful 'anti-monster missile' to destroy it in one fell swoop." Kishida was full of passion at the moment.

Qi Ming looked around the battlefield.

"Gudun showed up at the quarry, and Kishida was on a plane. There's still one missing factor... Here it comes!"

Qi Ming pulled Kishida and said, "Team Leader Kishida, there's an emergency you must be aware of—a girl with a bug net is rushing towards Gudun."

Kishida was stunned: "You must be joking! The crowd has been evacuated!"

In the original drama of "Jack", Go Hideki and Kishida were on the same plane. Kishida asked Go Hideki to throw a missile, but Go Hideki saw the little girl because of the super vision brought by Jack's possession and did not launch it. As a result, he was beaten up.

Things like "Are you still asleep? Isn't there anyone here?", "I won't let you get away with such a nice excuse", "The village that made the mistake must be punished".

In the end, Hideki Go was sentenced to three days of solitary confinement.

Now, it is Qi Ming's turn to face this situation.

Want to pressure me? Sorry, you'll just have to "stand up and toast me."

Qi Ming was not polite either. He thrust a telescope he had prepared in advance into Kishida's face and asked, "Do you see it now?"

"It's true!" Kishida's face suddenly turned ugly.

He said into the intercom, "Captain, there's an emergency. A child wearing a yellow hat has entered the combat zone. Team member Qi Ming and I saw it. Now..."

Qi Ming took over the conversation: "Now launch the missiles and destroy the monster."

After saying that, he was about to push the joystick to launch the missile towards the ancient mound that had been locked.

Kishida was so frightened that he almost lost his soul and quickly stopped him: "Captain Qi Ming, what are you doing!"

Qi Ming: "Of course, to destroy the monsters."

Kishida: "If you fire the anti-kaiju missile at this distance, that girl will die!"

Qi Ming: "But if we don't kill Gudun here, what if it escapes and shows up in downtown Tokyo next time?"

"Now, firing an anti-kaiju missile only kills one girl. If it starts wreaking havoc in the city, how many people will die?"

Kishida was stunned after hearing this. His hand holding the joystick couldn't help but tremble, as if he was holding a huge problem.

"Then...why did you call me just now?" Kishida said in a dry tone.

Qi Ming said calmly, "Because once you become an insider, we become 'accomplices'. We share the guilt and responsibility."

In short - "Kishida did it too."

Kishida couldn't bring himself to do it and could only watch Gudun go back underground.

The other members of the Victory Team also heard the argument between the two through the communication channel. Even Shan Zhong was so shocked by Qi Ming's "ruthlessness" that he was speechless.

Finally, Zhu Xingtuan's voice sounded: "You guys come back first..."

On the way back, Kishida looked at Qi Ming with horror, thinking that this guy was a "devil".

So evil!

After returning to the base, the entire command room was silent, and everyone looked at Qi Ming with awe in their eyes.

Zhu Xingtuan wanted to say something but stopped himself. If it were before, he would definitely scold Qi Ming for not valuing life and criticize him harshly.

But he and Qi Ming had a little trouble in the past few days, and he was thinking about how to improve their relationship. Of course, he couldn't criticize him out loud.

He coughed a few times and let Nishijo Nagi say a few words.

Nishijo Nagi nodded, then walked up to Kishida with a gloomy expression. "What are you hesitating about? Why don't you follow Team Qi Ming's advice and launch the missile? Your mission is to defeat the monster!"

Zhu Xingtuan: “?”

His original intention was to let Xijo Nagi criticize Qi Ming and tell him not to go so far in the future.

But in the eyes of Nishijo Nagi, who believes that "defeating monsters comes first", Qi Ming's approach is absolutely correct!
It is normal for people to die when a monster causes destruction. If we let the monster go now, what if it appears next time and causes a more serious situation?
At that moment, she criticized Kishida harshly, and the latter lowered his head, his face turning pale and blue.

Qi Ming saw that it was almost over, so he came out to smooth things over:
"No, now that I think about it, maybe I'm too pessimistic and always think of the worst."

"After all, the fundamental purpose of our battle against monsters is to protect humanity and maintain peace."

"If we can find the monster and kill it before it appears again, then Team Kishida's idea is correct."

As soon as these words were spoken, Kishida couldn't help but look at Qi Ming with gratitude.

Look, he has to thank us.
