Japanese Terrorist: What? I'll fight Hellstar!

"Are you still sad for Kawahara Miyuki? It seems he had quite a few feelings for her."

Amamiya Rin sighed.

I hope Kogure can recover soon, and I also hope he won't be like those extreme fans of Fujino Terumi, who choose to die the same way as their idol and follow him to the underworld.

"By the way, Inspector Inudo, why did you suddenly ask me where I was and what I was doing yesterday?"

Amamiya Rin seemed to have just remembered, and asked with a hint of doubt.

"Let me tell you, we encountered the Slit-Mouthed Woman yesterday."

After finishing filing, Feng Haichun returned and took over the conversation.

"The Slit-Mouthed Woman? How's it going? Did you catch her?"

Amamiya Rin's gaze sharpened, and he immediately asked.

"You could say we caught her, right? Yesterday, when Kogure and I were on patrol, the Metropolitan Police Department received a call reporting that a slit-mouthed woman had appeared at Shimokitazawa Elementary School. However, before the call was even made, someone had already bravely killed her."

Thinking about what happened last night, Junya Kazemi's expression was quite strange.

"An act of heroism?"

Amamiya Rin asked in surprise.

"Originally, it was nothing, but the two people who intervened were both wearing Ultraman masks, so we didn't know their identities. We only knew that they were a man and a woman. The man was using a cane, and the slit-mouthed woman died because the cane pierced her eye and penetrated deep into her brain."

"Using a cane? So you think it's me?"

Amamiya Rin seemed lost in thought, muttering to herself.

"With my swordsmanship skills... defeating the Slit-Mouthed Woman... is indeed possible."

Feng Haichun gave Yu Gonglin a strange look, shook his head, and said firmly, "You can't do it."

"Can't do it? Why are you so sure?"

Amamiya Rin raised her head and asked, somewhat unconvinced.

"Your skills are very strong, but without enough strength, you simply cannot participate in such a battle. You did not see the traces after the battle. I highly doubt that the Slit-Mouthed Woman could win even if she were hit head-on by a car, but neither of the two masked men had their mobility affected after the battle."

As Kazemi Junya recalled the corridor he had seen last night, the damage to the walls and fire cabinet, his voice revealed a hint of astonishment.

Although I didn't witness it firsthand, the Slit-Mouthed Woman was definitely not human to cause such destruction, and the two people who fought her didn't seem like normal humans either.

"I understand your condition. Being able to move around with crutches is already quite strong. In a fit of rage, you could easily take down an ordinary person. But that masked person is different from you. Although he was using crutches, his gait and movements were very agile, clearly indicating that he was a healthy person. The crutches might just be a disguise, or part of a cosplay."

Junya Fukai had absolutely no idea that Rin Amamiya was the Ultraman Seven who defeated the Slit-Mouthed Woman.

Although Amamiya Rin had once displayed exquisite swordsmanship in the hospital lobby, his strength at the time was only at the level of an ordinary person. He relied entirely on his skills to escape and had no chance of fighting the Slit-Mouthed Woman.

However, this is also thanks to the great importance that Japanese society attaches to the right to personal privacy. Just like in Detective Conan, in this era, apart from important places such as hospitals, there are basically no surveillance cameras.

Otherwise, no matter how seemingly impossible it is for Amamiya Rin to defeat the Slit-Mouthed Woman, he would still reveal that he is the Ultraman Seven who destroyed the Slit-Mouthed Woman.

"That sounds exaggerated."

Amamiya Rin marveled.

"Of course, it's a ghost story after all. The legendary Slit-Mouthed Woman has a speed limit of 200 meters in three seconds. Even without weapons, she can kill an ordinary person by running over them."

Feng Haijun also sighed.

"That strong? Was the Slit-Mouthed Woman really defeated? Completely eliminated?"

Amamiya Rin asked incredulously.

"They should have taken them down, right? But... I feel like there are more suspicious points."

Feng Haichun also hesitated.

"What's wrong?"

Amamiya Rin asked curiously, but his heart remained calm. The so-called doubt was probably about the two suspicious people wearing Ultraman masks who acted bravely.

"Did you know? The Slit-Mouthed Woman has a child who is now 12 years old and attends Shimokitazawa Elementary School."

Feng Haichun frowned and told Yu Gonglin about the news he had heard yesterday.

Amamiya Rin also appropriately showed a surprised expression.

"Is this even possible? The child of the Slit-Mouthed Woman? Can you confirm its authenticity?"

"cannot!"

Junya Kazemi's answer was unusually decisive, which surprised Rin Amamiya.

Judging from Junya Kazemi's tone and expression, what seems uncertain isn't whether the Slit-Mouthed Woman's child attends Shimokitazawa Elementary School, but rather...

"The Slit-Mouthed Woman doesn't have any children because the timeline doesn't match up. According to her testimony, her child was born in the year she became the Slit-Mouthed Woman, but 15 years have passed since then, so her child couldn't possibly be 12 years old."

Seeing the doubt on Amamiya Rin's face, Kazekage also pointed out the suspicious points of this message.

"Could it be...?"

"Won't!"

Just as Amamiya Rin was about to ask if she was born after becoming a slit-mouthed woman, she was interrupted by Kazemi Junya.

"There's no reason for the Slit-Mouthed Woman to give birth to a child three years later. Putting aside whether a man would fall in love with her, does this urban legend of the Slit-Mouthed Woman really have the ability to give birth? There's never been a similar case before."

While Amamiya Rin and Kazemi Jun were discussing the Slit-Mouthed Woman, in a sixth-grade classroom at Shimokitazawa Elementary School...

During recess, sunlight streamed through the glass windows, filling the air with a restless excitement.

A group of students gathered around the window, their eyes sparkling.

"It's true! I saw it with my own eyes!"

Lu Cai, with her hair in pigtails, gestured excitedly as she spoke.

"That slit-mouthed woman is this tall! Her face is split all the way from here to here!"

Her fingers exaggeratedly traced a line from the corner of her mouth to her ear.

"She was holding really, really big scissors!"

A boy named Kenta spoke up quickly, spreading his arms as wide as they could.

"It swings so fast, you can't even see it!"

"And then what?"

The other students around craned their necks, eager to ask questions.

Yesterday, something happened at the primary school. Although the teachers asked the students to go home as soon as possible, all sorts of rumors had already spread.

"And then Ultraman Leo appeared!"

Another boy involved in last night's incident had a proud look on his face.

"He suddenly appeared in front of us! The Slit-Mouthed Woman charged at us, and Leo punched her in the stomach with a loud bang! That was amazing!"

"Not just one punch, but many—many punches! Like this, like this!"

Another child imitated Tomie's swift jab, thrusting his little arm forward rapidly, drawing gasps from those around him.
