Ultraman's opening scene: lifting up Kuroshio Island

"Grandpa's life is coming to an end, and he doesn't have much time left."

Caroline's face was filled with deep sorrow as she looked at the two of them and pleaded:

"Can you please help him?!"

"How is that possible? The professor was perfectly fine just two days ago."

Feng Yuan was struck dumb, frozen in place.

"He was just putting on a brave face, just to keep everyone company."

Caroline lowered her head, her voice trembling with tears.

Minghui didn't speak, but his heart sank heavily.

His worst fears came true: the lifespan of the Celestials was similar to that of Earthlings, and Professor Duduru was already very old when he came to Earth.

Now, more than twenty years later, he has finally met the end of his life.

A moment later, led by Caroline, Minghui and the other arrived at Professor Duduru's room.

By this time, everyone in the club had arrived.

Inside the room, Professor Dudu, whose hair had turned completely white, lay weakly on the bed.

Upon seeing Minghui and his companion, Professor Dudulu gave a strained smile, his voice weak as he said:

"You've arrived..."

Minghui stepped forward, his face tinged with sadness, and said softly:

"Grandpa, I can help you..."

"No, thank you."

Professor Dudu shook his head slightly and declined Minghui's offer with a smile.

"Ugh......"

Minghui sighed softly, having anticipated this.

He had noticed Professor Dudu's lifespan problem before and had brought it up with him, but the latter refused to comment.

This remains true today.

Perhaps Professor Dudu was just too tired.

He always cared about Celine and took the blame for the robots' betrayal and destruction of Celine upon himself—a sin that was far too heavy to bear.

"Minghui, Fengyuan, come here."

At this moment, Professor Dudu slowly raised his hand and called out to Minghui and the other person.

The two stepped forward, and Minghui grasped Professor Dudu's withered hand, whispering:

"We are here, Professor."

"I want to thank you."

Professor Dudu let out a slight breath, then looked up at the two of them and said softly:

“I know what you did on Celine. I want to thank you for stopping those guys from doing more wrong things, and I also want to thank you for helping Celine rekindle the flame of civilization.”

"No, it's because your people never gave up hope. Even without us, they could have succeeded."

Minghui shook his head, his sorrow deepening. He could sense the old man's life force growing dimmer.

Feng Yuan, who was standing to the side, kept his head down and didn't say anything, his shoulders shaking incessantly.

"And all of you, I'm so happy to have met you all."

Professor Dudu looked away and glanced at everyone in the room.

Chairman Ōmura, Takeshi Nomura, Momoko Yamaguchi...

The faces of everyone were filled with deep sorrow. No one wanted to see this old man, with whom they had lived for more than twenty years, leave this world.

"professor......"

Momoko Yamaguchi whispered, her voice trembling with tears.

"Don't be sad for me. I've lived more than twenty years longer than I should have. I'm already content."

Professor Dudu smiled and shook his head, the light in his eyes growing dimmer.

Then, he turned his head slightly to look at Caroline, who was already sobbing uncontrollably, and said with difficulty:

"I'm just worried about my granddaughter. I beg you all... please take good care of her..."

Before he could finish speaking, the light in Professor Dudu's eyes dimmed completely, and he closed his eyes.

"grandfather!"

Caroline's heart-wrenching screams rang out, and the sobs inside the house could no longer be suppressed and rose up together.

Minghui also felt a lump in his throat; this was the first time he had experienced the death of a friend.

He had intended to intervene in Professor Duduru's death, but ultimately he gave up, because it was not Professor Duduru's will.

But now, looking at the heartbroken Caroline, he wondered if his decision was the right one.

Perhaps I should intervene...

Minghui sighed inwardly and lowered his head slightly.

But just then, he suddenly heard a strange noise, like the sound of some kind of machine starting up.

At the same time, he saw Professor Duduru's eyelids twitch.

The next moment, to everyone's astonishment, Professor Dudru, who was lying on the bed, suddenly sat up and shouted:

"I'm back, everyone!"

"This...this is..."

Everyone stared wide-eyed, their tear stains still fresh on their faces.

“I’ve already reformed myself. With you all as my friends, how could I bear to die? Besides, I’m worried about my granddaughter.”

Professor Dudu got out of bed and started hopping and jumping around, not at all like an old man.

He laughed:

"But this chance to die is rare, and I was curious about what it would feel like, so I gave it a try. And let me tell you, it's not a pleasant experience at all. You should definitely not try it."

No one spoke; they just stared intently at Professor Duduru.

Professor Dudu sensed something was wrong, and he slowly stopped moving.

Minghui's face darkened further, and a dangerous glint flashed in his eyes.

That old man, Deng, actually dared to play us!

"Old man! You better pray your parts are tough enough!"

"Otherwise, you'll die here today!"

"Ah, prepare to unleash my fury!"

I had a little fun during the May Day holiday, so I skipped one chapter.

Happy Labor Day, guys!

Chapter 407 Attention! Your vacation days are almost over!

In the end, Professor Duduru escaped a calamity, avoiding a crisis where his apparent death turned into a real one.

This wasn't because Minghui suddenly remembered the importance of respecting the elderly and caring for the young, nor was it because he was stopped by others. In fact, when Minghui rushed forward, everyone else was also eager to try.

How could this old man make such a joke? He's really gone too far!

But just as everyone was preparing to rush up and vent their anger and vent their frustration at being deceived, a visitor interrupted their actions.

Inside the club's reception room, Minghui sat at the table that the club's members usually used as a mahjong table. He looked at the man opposite him with a hint of interest on his face.

He was a middle-aged man who looked refined and easygoing, with a faint smile always on his face.

At first glance, this person seemed unremarkable, nothing more than a typical nice guy. But Minghui could vaguely sense an aura emanating from him. It wasn't a sense of oppression, but rather a feeling of security and reliability that made people feel at ease no matter what happened.

Moreover, Minghui also sensed a familiar aura emanating from the other party.

That was the aura of an Ultraman warrior, but that didn't mean the person in front of him was an Ultraman; rather...

Someone has tagged me!

Force water Shingo!

"Hmm, this coffee tastes good. What kind is it?"

At that moment, Shingo Sakamizu was holding a cup of coffee and sipping it slowly. After taking a sip, his eyes lit up and he exclaimed in surprise.

"If you like it, I'll give you some before I leave. You can't find this anywhere else."

Upon hearing this, Minghui smiled and spoke.

He wasn't wrong at all; this was something he brought back from another world, and you couldn't find it anywhere else.

This is where the advantage of being able to travel to different universes comes into play. Although the Earths in each universe are largely the same, there are always some special things that the Earths in other universes do not possess.

Whenever Minghui comes across something like this, he collects some and brings them back as gifts for everyone.

Just now, Minghui recognized Shingo Sakami's identity, which is why he specially brought out the coffee he brought back from another world to entertain him.

Little did he know that the guy in front of him, the future captain of GUYS, was actually the director of GUYS's Japanese branch. He didn't have any special hobbies; his favorite thing to do was drink coffee whenever he had free time.

Akira had a good impression of Shingo Sakami, considering him the second perfect captain after Megumi Kijima.

No one can find fault with his performance in GUYS, whether it is his leadership or his care for his teammates.

If Feng Yuan saw something like that, she would probably burst into tears.

However, what Minghui didn't expect was that Shingo Sakami would come looking for him today.

After all, they had no connection whatsoever.
