We asked you to make tokusatsu films, and you actually became Ultraman?

As night falls, the streets have long since shed their daytime hustle and bustle, and the evening breeze is gentle, creating a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere.

Yun Yu was on night shift, and since there wasn't much to do, she turned on her phone and started watching the latest episode of "Ultraman Sirius".

Originally, he just wanted to casually watch and see how handsome he looked in the show, but after watching the latest episode in its entirety, Yun Yu, who hadn't thought much of it at first, felt an undeniable sense of embarrassment.

"Dude, am I that shy?" He stared at the image on the screen of himself standing on the mudflat, avoiding eye contact, and felt a surge of anger rising within him.

Because the camera captured his awkwardness when facing Su Mo so clearly, even preserving the subtle shifts in his eyes.

Seeing this, Yunyu's mind uncontrollably replayed the scene at the beach that evening, the evening breeze carrying the salty smell of the sea, the scene of the two of them standing side by side on the beach chatting.

At first, he thought it would be the same as what happened with Ake and Omega, but he didn't expect it to turn out like this.

As Yun Yu was deep in thought behind the cashier, Su Mo's voice interrupted his chaotic thoughts:

"Haha, that polluting factory has been thoroughly investigated, and all of its management have been punished to varying degrees."

The impact of this ecological damage incident was far too severe. The factory owner was sentenced to life imprisonment, and the other responsible persons involved in the illegal dumping all received sentences of twenty to thirty years. Furthermore, they will be required to participate in marine environmental maintenance work at the beach every month thereafter.

Su Mo held up her phone and showed Yun Yu the official court announcement page, her tone full of surprise.

Su Mo was a little surprised to see such a severe punishment.

Having covered news for a long time, she has seen many similar pollution cases. In the past, the responsible persons of enterprises with serious violations were mostly sentenced to only three to seven years, and those with extremely serious violations were at most sentenced to seven years or more.

This sentence, which combines life imprisonment with a fixed term of twenty or thirty years, is truly unprecedented.

For more than half a month, she traveled around Shawei Village, collecting villagers' testimonies and collecting polluted water samples. Now that she sees the perpetrators receiving the punishment they deserve, she feels all the fatigue she had accumulated over the past few days has dissipated.

Seeing Su Mo's happy expression, Yun Yu couldn't help but feel that this outcome was truly gratifying. However, remembering Su Mo's news, she softly asked:

"So, how's the press release you're preparing?"

Upon hearing the question, Su Mo did not answer immediately. She quickly swiped her fingers across the phone screen for a moment before handing the edited news article to Yun Yu.

Yun Yu reached out and took the phone, carefully reading Su Mo's news article word by word. He found that the narrative style of the report was very delicate, and it did not directly accuse the factory of its evil deeds at the beginning.

  [At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: 101 Read Novels, 101🅺🅺🅢.🅒🅞🅜 (Super smooth reading experience)]

Instead, it first slowly lays out the impact of marine pollution on the lives of ordinary fishermen in Shawei Village, depicting how the villagers have relied on the sea for generations, but have lost the sea area they depend on for survival due to sewage discharge.

Only after the reader empathizes with the story does the author objectively and completely state the whole truth about the factory's long-term secret discharge of industrial wastewater, accompanied by water sample test reports and on-site photos as evidence.

The entire text is restrained and calm, without any fierce accusations, simply stating the facts. But after reading it, one can't help but feel heartbroken for the people of the fishing village and disgusted by those who pollute nature.

"It's so well written," Yunyu exclaimed sincerely.

Su Mo put away her phone, her eyes crinkling with amusement as she teased:

"Haha, since you think my writing is good, how about I do a special interview with you?"

Yun Yu quickly waved her hand, subconsciously shrinking back: "Then let's forget about it."

"..."

The two stood by the cashier and sat in a chair, joking and laughing at each other from a distance.

Just then, a crisp bell rang out from the convenience store entrance, and Yun Yu instinctively raised her voice to greet them: "Welcome!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, he looked up at the door and found that a very young child had come in.

Yunyu was on the night shift, which was a time when there were hardly any adults on the streets, let alone children going out alone. The scene before her was truly rare.

The little boy was wearing a faded school uniform and carrying a worn-out canvas backpack. He was thin and small, and he hesitated to walk in through the door.

Seemingly sensing that Yun Yu's gaze was fixed on him, the child instantly became timid, lowered his head, gripped the backpack straps tightly with his fingers, and tensed his shoulders, looking fearful and uneasy.

Fortunately, Yunyu had some experience in interacting with children and could tell at a glance that the little boy was shy and sensitive. Staring at him would only make the child more nervous.

So he immediately looked away, pretending to bend down and wipe the countertop, slowly rubbing the surface back and forth with the cloth, deliberately avoiding paying attention to the figure at the door, giving the other person enough time to process.

Realizing that Yun Yu was no longer watching him, the child seemed to have unloaded a heavy psychological burden, let out a long sigh of relief, and tiptoed into the convenience store, making extremely light footsteps, afraid of making any noise that might disturb the two people inside.

Seeing the child relax and walk into the store, Yunyu and Su Mo exchanged a glance. The two tacitly refrained from approaching him and quietly went about their business, leaving the little boy alone to choose his items.

The little boy lingered in the shelf area for a long time, tiptoeing and repeatedly looking at the stationery shelf. His eyes were fixed on a bottle of glue. After hesitating for a long time, he carefully reached out his little hand, picked up the glue, hugged it tightly to his chest, and moved step by step to the cashier.

Yunyu stopped wiping her hands when the child walked to the counter with the glue he had chosen. She gently took the glue from the child, scanned the barcode with the barcode scanner, and the soft "beep" sound was particularly clear in the quiet convenience store.

"Five yuan." Yun Yu softened her voice and quietly announced the price, handing the glue back to the little boy.

But after the little boy took the glue, he hesitated to take out his money. He frantically rummaged through his school uniform pockets, pulled out a bunch of loose coins, counted them over and over again, but still didn't have enough money.

A flicker of disappointment crossed his eyes. After a moment of hesitation and struggle, he finally bit his lower lip, made up his mind, turned around, and decided to put the glue back on the shelf.

Just as the little boy turned to leave, Yun Yu saw his lonely and timid back and quickly and gently called out to him.

"Can you tell big brother what you need the glue for?" Yunyu's voice was gentle and calm, without any urging or coercion, quietly waiting for the little boy's answer.

Five yuan is a small amount, and the child had money with him, but not enough. So he could help the child, but he didn't want to give without any limits. Therefore, he planned to ask the child what he intended to do with the glue before making any decisions.
