"Ah, of course."
Amidst the expectant gazes of the others, Minghui smiled gently and began to speak:
"But she's in a very, very far place."
The car became even quieter, and the atmosphere grew somewhat somber.
The light in Ida and Matsumura's eyes dimmed. They pursed their lips, their lips moving as if they didn't know whether to speak or not.
It was Komon Kazuki who broke the silence, his face filled with apology as he spoke with difficulty:
"Sorry, I don't know..."
"Huh? What's with those expressions? Have you misunderstood something?"
Seeing the expression of 'condolences' written all over Komon Kazuki's face, Akira exclaimed in surprise, and said:
“My girlfriend is fine, but we live quite far apart, and I don’t know when we’ll see each other again. I’m afraid she’ll complain a lot when we meet next.”
Minghui sighed softly, and a white figure appeared in his mind.
What he said was all true; there was a distance of an entire universe between them, which cannot be described by the word "far".
He still doesn't know when he will be able to return to his original universe, nor does he know how time is calculated in between.
If the time in the two universes is synchronized, then by the time he returns, a considerable amount of time will have passed.
After such a long time apart, Niki must be feeling pretty anxious...
Hmm, it doesn't seem like that...
Thinking of this, Minghui's thoughts suddenly paused, and he blinked gently.
The two of them originally met only once a year. He had just returned from Alpha Star before coming to the Nexus world, so it wouldn't matter if the next meeting was a little later.
Hey, long-distance relationships aren't all bad!
"Ah, I see. I didn't know what to say just now."
Hearing Minghui's explanation, Komon Kazuki breathed a sigh of relief, and he felt the atmosphere in the car liven up again.
Over the next few hours, the two had a heated discussion about dating. Minghui shared some of his own experiences with him, while he also brought some new ideas that Minghui had never thought of before.
Both men benefited greatly from the conversation, and Komon Kazuki felt that he had grown closer to Akira.
Only Ida and Matsumura in the front row remained silent, leaving behind envious tears that belonged to single people.
We shouldn't be in the car, we should be under the car!
The black sedan drove from the suburbs into the city and then drove to the vicinity of a zoo.
From a distance, Kazuki Komon spotted a beautiful figure standing by the roadside. Before the car had come to a complete stop, he opened the door and jumped out.
However, he didn't run away immediately. Instead, suppressing his joy, he thanked them again.
"Thank you all for giving me a ride."
"No need to say more, go quickly. Riko is waiting for you. Remember to give my regards to Riko."
Minghui smiled and waved at him.
Under his watchful gaze, Kazuki Komon crossed the road and finally embraced Riko Saida, who had been waiting for him.
Both of them had bright smiles on their faces, which conveyed genuine and intense emotions.
Kazuki Komon bowed his head and said a few words to Riko Saida, who then turned around and waved in greeting.
Minghui smiled and nodded at him, his eyes gleaming as he gazed at Riko Saito.
In his vision, a faint light was flickering deep within Riko Saita's body.
The light was not particularly dazzling; rather, it was rather dim and hidden deep within Riko Saito's body.
That was his protective light!
Minghui's consciousness reached out and gently touched the ball of light, sensing the information contained within it.
The next moment, he raised an eyebrow slightly.
Is something wrong?
Is it... Mizoroki Shinya?
This protective light was extremely well hidden; in Minghui's judgment, even Goro Mujin would have a hard time detecting it.
That is indeed the case; otherwise, Gorokijin would not have been so careless.
Are they finally going to make their move again?
Minghui smiled inwardly, closed the car door, and slightly raised his chin:
"Let's go!"
"Yes, team leader!"
Matsumura, who was driving, responded and asked as the car slowly started moving:
"Team leader, where are we going?"
Minghui thought for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his lips:
"Let's go back to the fried chicken place we used to go. It's on me today, let's go eat fried chicken!"
Chapter 260 Brother Zhun is on his way.
"Buzz!"
With the roar of its engine, the black sedan sped along the mountain road leading to the suburbs, its speed now even greater than when it arrived.
"It's just ahead!"
Inside the car, Kazuki Komon examined the armed communicator in his hand and said in a deep voice.
On the screen of the communicator in his hand, there was a bright red coordinate mark on the map.
Their current destination is the location indicated by those coordinates.
This is an emergency order; a strange beast has appeared at the location shown on the map.
Not only did Kazuki Komon, a member of the Night Raid Team, receive this order, but Akira's group was also ordered to go to the destination to carry out a possible memory erasure mission.
"How do you feel about having your long-awaited reunion date interrupted?"
Minghui sat down next to Komon Ichiki, glanced at the screen on the communicator, and chuckled.
"It's nothing, dates can happen anytime, but the alien beasts must be eliminated as soon as possible."
Kazuki Komon looked away from the communicator in his hand, his expression becoming somewhat serious, already showing a hint of a warrior's demeanor.
This emergency order was issued shortly after Kazuki Komon and Riko Saita's date began. Although Kazuki Komon was slightly disappointed by the situation, he didn't really have any complaints.
As he said, eliminating the alien beasts was far more important than a date.
"A commendable level of awareness."
Minghui smiled and praised him.
Komon Kazuki didn't react much to Minghui's praise; in fact, he was a little nervous.
Although he was aware of the danger, he hadn't been on many missions, and he still found it difficult to remain calm in the face of such a terrifying monster.
Kazuki Komon pursed his lips, his nervousness causing him to frequently glance at the screen in his hand, silently calculating the distance to his destination.
"Relax, the alien beasts aren't that scary. They can still die if they get hurt. Besides, Captain Hecang and the others are all great warriors. You have to trust your teammates."
Minghui noticed his nervousness, patted Komon Kazuki on the shoulder, and said:
"Being nervous won't help anyway, so how about... I'll have some fried chicken!"
"Ok?"
Kazuki Komon blinked, chewing on the mouthful of meat he had stuffed full, and muttered something.
"Waaaaah..."
............
"boom......"
A not-too-intense roar sounded, and as the surging air spread out, the two fighter jets slowly descended from the sky.
The branches of the tree beside Minghui swayed in all directions as the air currents blew, and the leaves on them rustled.
Under his watchful eye, the two Chromium Chester fighters separated and flew to either side of the narrow tunnel that ran through the mountain.
These two fighter jets were different from the ones he had seen recently; they were enhanced models specifically prepared for the alien beasts that had evolved into enormous sizes.
Faced with alien beasts tens of meters tall, the small pistol was no match; a larger one was needed.
"That's so cool! I wish I could fly one of those fighter jets!"
A somewhat envious voice rang out beside Minghui. Jingtian stared wide-eyed at the two fighter jets not far away, his longing almost overflowing.
Although Matsumura didn't say anything, Akira could tell from his micro-expressions that he was moved.
No matter the world, fighter jets are something every man desires.
Not to mention, the two fighter jets in front of us are among the most powerful and aggressive of them all.
Compared to the Chromium Chester fighter, the Mackey next door is probably left far behind.
"Don't even think about it. You can't just drive that thing by trying."
Minghui withdrew his gaze, glanced at the two people beside him, and said:
"It's time to get to work. The headquarters' investigation results indicate that there are no unauthorized personnel nearby, but just in case, we still need to search again."
"Other areas are handled by other teams; we only need to manage this area. The two of you will work together, and contact us immediately if anything happens, understand?"
Holding a communication device in his hand, Minghui looked at the information displayed on it and gave instructions to the two of them.
"learn!"
Ida and Matsumura both straightened their expressions and responded.
"Then let's set off."
