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

The night breeze carried a hint of coolness, rustling softly through the large trees beside the outpost.

After finishing her meal, Yun Yu found a corner to take a nap and was now stretching as she emerged from the house.

The night sky is very clear tonight. The deep blue curtain is studded with stars, each one shining as if it had been polished. Sirius in the distance is particularly eye-catching, twinkling.

Yunyu leaned against a broken pillar with her arms crossed, looking at the star, her mind wandering.

To be honest, he really wanted to fly over to Sirius and take a look.

At the speed at which he transforms into a sphere of light, it would probably only take him a few days to fly there.

But Yunyu was only thinking about it. After all, what if another monster appeared during the few days they were on Sirius?

"I'd better just stay put," Yun Yu muttered to herself, scratching the back of her head.

Just as he was staring blankly at the starry sky, a series of intermittent sobs drifted over.

It wasn't the kind of loud, wailing crying; it was more like sobbing.

Yun Yu paused for a moment, pricked up her ears to discern the direction, and then walked towards the source of the crying.

After walking past two neatly stacked boxes of supplies, he saw the source of the crying: a little boy he barely recognized.

The child looked to be only five or six years old, with messy hair and streaks of gray and black on his face, like a little kitten that had just rolled out of the mud.

Her clothes were torn in several places, and there were dried stains on the sleeves. She was huddled in Risa's arms, her shoulders were shaking, and tears were falling down her face, soaking Risa's clothes.

Risa was holding him, gently patting his back with one hand and wiping away his tears with the other, softly comforting him:

"It's okay, it's okay, don't cry. You're safe now, no one will hurt you..."

"What's wrong?" Yun Yu walked to the side and asked Saki Kazuko, who was standing there, in a low voice.

Saki sighed helplessly and shrugged:

"After you took care of that monster this afternoon, the captain said that while it was temporarily safe, he took us out to search for more supplies."

When we came back, we found the child in the basement of a nearby building. He was huddled in a corner, and we didn't know how long he had been hiding there.

She paused, glanced at the still-crying child, and said with a hint of heartache, "It's rare for us to have a hot meal today, so Risa served him a bowl, but he started crying while eating, and we couldn't stop him no matter what we did."

Yun Yu was slightly taken aback after hearing this.

He looked at the dirty, sobbing child in front of him and didn't know what to say for a moment.

A person was hiding in a dark basement, not knowing how long they had been hiding. They had no food, no water, and outside came the roars of monsters and the sounds of collapsing buildings. They didn't know if they would be discovered any second later, or if they would even survive until tomorrow...

Yunyu felt a little sad, but this incident also reminded him that there are many people living like this child.

Risa continued to patiently coax him, her voice gentle, like a spring breeze:

"Okay, okay, don't cry anymore. Look, there are so many older brothers and sisters here, and so many friends. Everyone will stay with you. Wipe your face, you're all covered in pudding."

She took a clean handkerchief out of her pocket and carefully wiped the child's face, her movements so gentle it was as if she were afraid of breaking something.

With Risa's comforting words, the child's crying gradually subsided into sobs, his nose twitching, but tears still streamed down his face.

At this moment, Xiao Wu, who had been watching from the sidelines, stepped forward.

Xiao Wu walked up to the crying child, put his hands on his hips, puffed out his little chest, and said:

"From now on, we'll all have enough to eat, because we have the Team-U sisters and Ultraman!"

"Ultraman?"

The little boy raised his tear-stained face, his eyes red and swollen, looking completely bewildered.

When he was rescued, he heard the older women in the defense team mention Team-U and knew that it was a team that protected everyone.

But what is Ultraman? He had never heard of the word before.

"Yeah! Ultraman!" Xiao Wu got excited as soon as Ultraman was mentioned, his eyes practically sparkling.

He stood on tiptoe, craned his neck, and looked around. His gaze swept across the room and finally locked onto Yun Yu, who was standing next to him.

Then he ran over, grabbed Yunyu's hand, and pulled him in front of the child.

"Look! It's him! He's Ultraman!" Xiao Wu proudly introduced, his tone as if he were introducing his family's great hero.

After Xiao Wu pulled Yun Yu to the side of the other children, the other children also gathered around and started explaining to their new friend what Ultraman was.

"Let me tell you! Ultraman is amazing! He can destroy giant monsters with just a wave of his hand!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Ultraman is so cool!"

"And there's more! As long as we don't pick at our food, eat properly, and listen to our older sisters, we can become Ultraman too!"

The one who said this was the little girl who had been held by Yun Yu before, and she looked confident at this moment.

"..."

Yun Yu stood in the middle, listening to the kids bragging about him, and the stories getting more and more outrageous. He felt a little embarrassed.

He wondered if he had exaggerated too much before, causing these kids to spread increasingly bizarre rumors.

Fortunately, Yunyu has a thick skin.

He forcefully suppressed his embarrassment, calmly squatted down to look the new kid in the eye, then reached out and gently placed his hand on the kid's head, slowly rubbing it a couple of times.

The child's hair was messy and felt like a bird's nest, but Yunyu's movements were very gentle.

"It's alright." He looked at those red, swollen eyes, still glistening with tears, and spoke very softly:

"We won't let you hide in the dark alone anymore. We will protect you, your sisters will, and so will I."

The little boy sniffed, looked at Yun Yu, then at his friends surrounding him, and at Risa, who was squatting in front of him with a gentle smile.

His tears were still on his face, but his crying had stopped.

He blinked his swollen, red eyes and asked softly, with a hint of uncertainty:

"Really... there won't be any more monsters?"

Yun Yu smiled and reached out to wipe away a tear from his face:

"As long as we're here, it won't happen."

These words were spoken softly, yet like a pebble dropped into water, they created a warm ripple in the child's heart.

He looked into Yun Yu's eyes, which were bright like stars in the night sky, making people feel at ease.

The child bit his lip, then nodded vigorously, wiped his face with his sleeve, and wiped away his tears and snot.

Although it still looked like a dirty little kitten, the fear and confusion in its eyes were gone.

The night breeze blew again, but this time it didn't feel cold.

Warm yellow light shone through the windows of the house, and the laughter and playful shouts of children drifted out, mingling with the occasional chirping of insects in the distance, creating a peaceful atmosphere amidst the ruins.
