Volume 1: Chapter 111 You At Least Have... Something to Say

Chihaya Aine took a look at the Ultraman Mecha Zero Spark Doll in her hand, and controlled her right hand to squeeze the Spark Doll in her hand.

"This thing looks this big based on our current size. Where should we let everyone keep it?" Chihaya Aine looked at the Spark Doll in her hand with some worry.

"Don't worry about this. The Spark Doll can change its size according to the user's ideas." Infinite Zero was confident about this.

"Now that things are over, go back to everyone. Everyone is worried about you, Aine." Infinite Zero pointed his right hand slightly at the location where Nagasaki Motoyo, Takamatsu Touma, Shiina Riki and Kaname Rana were. As for the old father, he was easily ignored by Zero.

"Ah, today's victory over Fushigi Ide K and the little golden man Absolute Tartarus is also thanks to everyone." Chihaya Aine smiled happily when she saw Nagasaki Motoyo, Takamatsu Touma, Shiina Tatsuki, Kaname Rakuna and the trembling Goto Ichiri waving at her and Infinite Zero.

The Ultraman-made mecha Zero Spark in his hand turned into a light and disappeared. Without seeing Infinite Zero make any movement, a purple light had already appeared at a speed that could not be captured by the human eye.

It soared into the sky and disappeared in a short while.

Nagasaki Suyo, Takamatsu Touma, Shiina Tachibana, Kaname Rakuna and Goto Ichiri also raised their heads and watched the purple light disappear into the sky.

"Hey! I'm back! Everyone!" Chihaya Aine's pink hair shone in the setting sun.

Yes, kids, in 2024, Chihaya Aine and Infinite Zero defeated the so-called invincible Fushigi Ide K.

Later, in the "Death of Absolute Tartarus" incident in 2024, Chihaya Aine and Infinite Zero defeated the so-called invincible Absolute Tartarus.

"Little Aine!" "Aine-chan!" After seeing the familiar pink color, Takamatsu Deng and Nagasaki Motoyo excitedly ran straight to Chihaya Aine.

Although Shiina Riki and Kaname Rakuna did not say anything, they silently quickened their pace and followed closely behind Takamatsu Deng and Nagasaki Motoyo.

Goto Ichiri had a satisfied smile on his face, like an old father, and he was left at the end of the group.

"I'm back, everyone!" Chihaya Aine saw everyone coming to greet her, and she happily grabbed the hands of Takamatsu Touma and Nagasaki Motoyo who came first.

"Ain, your injury..." After the joy just now, Takamatsu Deng remembered the injury that Chihaya Ain had suffered before the battle.

"Hehe, I'm a complete man now!" Chihaya Aine released the hands of Takamatsu Touma and Nagasaki Motoyo, stretched out her right hand and gave a thumbs up.

"Injury? What injury?!" Nagasaki Suyo, who had prepared a lot of words, also keenly realized something after hearing Takamatsu Deng's words.

"I don't know?!" Chihaya Aine felt that her back was soaked with cold sweat. When facing Nagasaki Motoyo's squinting eyes that seemed to be smiling but were not smiling at all, Chihaya Aine felt more pressure than when she faced the little golden man just now!

"Uh uh uh, I'll explain it later." Chihaya Aine's tone sounded a little aggrieved.

"That's right...things here have been resolved, so I'll go back first!" After surviving the crisis just now, Goto Ichiri felt that the aura of his social anxiety was about to spread out, and his quota for staying with strangers today had been used up.

"This classmate..." Shiina Riki was just about to reach out and grab the pink-haired No. 2 who was wearing a pink sweatshirt and suddenly appeared beside him to solve the crisis, and then planned to run away after the crisis was solved.

However, before Shiina Riki's outstretched hand could touch Goto Ichiri, the pink-haired No. 2 had already turned around and ran away.

"By the way, Mr. Seven said that Mr. Zero might have been a little lax recently, and he is considering whether to give you some special training!" Goto Ichiri, who had already turned into a gust of wind and left against the setting sun, heard a voice from afar.

After hearing that Ultra Seven was going to undergo special training, Chihaya Aine and Ultraman Zero in the consciousness space trembled together.

"Regarding the injury that Deng-chan just mentioned and the matter with Goto Ichiri, Aine-chan, you should have a few things to explain to us, right?" Nagasaki Motoyo grabbed Chihaya Aine's wrist and dragged her towards the black luxury car that had been prepared nearby.

After Chihaya Aine and everyone else left, a golden light hidden underground found an opportunity to escape far away from this area. This was a piece of Absolut energy left at the bottom of the feet of the little golden man Absolut Tartarus when he just fought against Bo.

This Absolute energy remained dormant underground until Ultraman Zero's human form Chihaya Aine and Ultraman Seven's human form Goto Ichiri left, and then it appeared and escaped.

In the black limousine, due to the presence of the driver, no one spoke a word throughout the journey.

"Ding~" After a few twists and turns, everyone returned to Nagasaki Suye's "duplex high-rise, overlooking the sea and the river" home that they had just left at noon today.

On the dining table was the dinner that Nagasaki Suyo had ordered prepared just now in the car.

As soon as you enter the door, you can smell the aroma of food. These aromas especially make Chihaya Aine, who has consumed too much energy from the series of battles today, feel her stomach growling.

After hearing the sounds coming from Chihaya Aine's stomach, Nagasaki Motoyo's pretty face, which had been a little frosty, melted like an iceberg, revealing a helpless smile.

"Now that things have come to this, let's eat first." Nagasaki Suyo sighed, feeling that she really had no way to deal with this pink-haired girl who always liked to smile foolishly. Perhaps she had met her destined nemesis.

Chihaya Aine was like a child who had received her parents' consent. She rushed to the dining table and started eating and drinking. The two consecutive battles today had consumed a lot of energy. In addition, Chihaya Aine didn't even eat at noon in order to cover up her injuries. She only drank a cup of tea and made an excuse to leave. All these situations added up, Chihaya Aine felt that she could eat several cows now.

"Huh~ I'm full, I'm full." After eating 80% of the food on the table, Chihaya Aine stroked her slender and firm belly, and sank into the sofa in a Ge You-like posture.

"Can you tell me what happened to your injury now?" Nagasaki Suyo picked up the teacup and took a sip of Earl Grey tea. As soon as the tea entered her mouth, Nagasaki Suyo's pretty eyebrows frowned.

Perhaps it was because of her current mood, but Nagasaki Suyo felt that her favorite Earl Grey tea was a bit bland after taking a sip.

"Emm, uh, ah...this matter has passed, can we just let her go?" Chihaya Aine said coquettishly to Nagasaki Motoyo.

If it was any other trivial matter, Nagasaki Motoyo might have been able to get away with it by being acted like this by Chihaya Aion, but the battle just now, which seemed like she was about to lose Chihaya Aion, made Nagasaki Motoyo attach the highest level of importance to this matter. Even if Chihaya Aion herself thought it was a small matter, as long as it was related to Chihaya Aion's own safety, Nagasaki Motoyo would not have room for compromise.

Chihaya Aion tried to look at Takamatsu Tou for help, but Takamatsu Tou now felt the same as Nagasaki Motoyo in this regard. They both didn't want to see Chihaya Aion forcing herself to fight with her prickly body after being injured. The feeling of almost losing Chihaya Aion today made their hearts tormented.

Chihaya Aine, who did not get the help she wanted from Takamatsu Touma, first glanced at Kaname Rakuna who was concentrating on making the matcha parfait, and finally, with the mentality of trying everything, she turned to Shiina Tatsuki for help.

The moment Shiina Ritsuki received Chihaya Aine's pleading gaze, his eyes suddenly sparkled.

"Su Shi...don't force her to speak like this. Give her some time to prepare and she will tell you." Although Shiina Riki didn't help Chihaya Aine to say that she should stop asking, it did ease the atmosphere a lot.

After Shiina Riki spoke, except for Takamatsu Touma and Kaname Rakuna who was concentrating on making the matcha parfait, Nagasaki Motoyo and Chihaya Aine could see disbelief in each other's eyes when they looked at each other.

"Rikki actually spoke up for me!" "Rikki actually spoke up for Aine-chan!" Thunder rumbled in the minds of Chihaya Aine and Nagasaki Motoyo.

"Since Li Xi said so..." Nagasaki Suyo picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

"It's not a big deal, it's just the battle at noon today. I was attacked unexpectedly by Fukui Ide K after he transformed into a lightning killer.

"Did you injure my abdomen? That's when I got hurt. I drank a cup of tea at noon and left immediately because I didn't want you to notice I was injured." Chihaya Aine also picked up the teacup and took a sip of the Earl Grey tea brewed by Nagasaki Motoyo.

"Isn't this a big deal?! If you had told me that you were injured, I could have immediately arranged for the best medical team to treat you! You just insisted on holding on just to show off? If it wasn't for that classmate Goto Ichiri in the pink sweatshirt who brought those four Ultra Capsules, if we hadn't been able to activate those four Ultra Capsules, would you have died there today?" Nagasaki Suyo's tone became more and more excited as she spoke, and she was a little hysterical in the end.

"It's true that Aine was wrong in this matter!" Takamatsu Deng's beautiful amber eyes were full of support for Nagasaki Motoyo's statement.

"I just didn't want to worry you too much... After all, the injuries caused by the Lightning Killer can only be healed step by step even with the use of light energy. Modern medicine can't give me a quick and effective treatment." Chihaya Aine lowered her head, and her pink bangs cast a shadow in front of her eyes.

"Even if we can't help you, I hope you can come to us to share your burden instead of leaving alone with your injuries..." Nagasaki Suyo once again felt the powerlessness on that rainy night.

"I know I was wrong! From now on, I will discuss things with everyone before taking action. And with these Ultra Capsules activated by everyone, Zero and I are already invincible~" Chihaya Aine took out the four Ultra Capsules that were activated today by Nagasaki Motoyo, Takamatsu Touma, Shiina Tatsuki and Kaname Rakuna and shook them in front of everyone.

"So don't show that expression, okay?" Chihaya Aine smiled and pulled Nagasaki Suyo's pretty face, which looked a little gloomy after recalling the past, and raised her hand to touch Takamatsu Deng's head.

After Chihaya Aine's actions, the gloomy aura on Nagasaki Suyo was swept away.

"So the injuries suffered by Zero will be reflected in you exactly?" Shiina Riki was a little curious about the fact that the part where Chihaya Aine was injured was the same part where Zero was injured by the Lightning Killer today.

"It makes me angry just talking about this! According to Zero, except for Ultraman himself who has transformed into a human, and the more special adapted ones, other human bodies that have become one with the Ultra Warriors generally will not respond to the damage they received when transforming into Ultraman." Although Fushigi K had exploded and scattered in the previous battle, Chihaya Aine was furious when she thought of the abdominal injury she had today.

"It seems that you have to try your best to avoid getting injured in battles in the future." Nagasaki Suyo said with some concern.

"It's okay, it's okay. Cero is known to have the strongest body in the universe and his skin is thick and tough. Normal monsters' attacks can't actually cause any harm to us. Think about it, in the previous battles, Cero and I were also attacked, but we were completely fine, right?" Chihaya Aine tried her best to explain that today's situation was just a special case.

"Be careful though!" Takamatsu Deng Xiaoxiao wrapped Chihaya Aine's hands in his hands again.

"I understand, I understand. In future battles, Zero and I will be extra careful." Facing Takamatsu Deng's pitiful eyes that looked like a little animal, Chihaya Aine couldn't help but agree.

"By the way, have Fushigi K and the little golden man Absolut Tartarus really been completely eliminated?" asked Shiina Riki with some concern.

"I'm certain that Fukui Ide K has been completely destroyed. As for the little golden man Absolut Tartarus, it's a little harder to say. After all, he still possesses the ability to manipulate space. I and Zero don't know if he has any hidden tricks up his sleeve. But after this battle, even if Absolut Tartarus isn't completely dead, he won't be able to cause trouble for a long time."

Volume 1: Chapter 112: Toyokawa Shoko's Stockings Fell Off

Chihaya Aine vowed and patted her flat chest with her free hand.

"You are the expert in this area and you have the final say..." Shiina Riki secretly made up his mind that after returning home tonight, he must use the Xio terminal to make up for the knowledge related to monsters and aliens.

While everyone was enjoying the joy after the victory, the last bit of strength of the little golden man Absolut Tartarus who was escaping came to a house with wine bottles all over the floor. The golden light looked left and right in the slightly damp house, and finally chose a doll placed high up as a temporary shelter.

When the golden light condensed from the last strength of the little golden man Absolut Tartarus was about to fly towards the puppet high in the sky, a figure who was on his way to his second job suddenly rushed out and absorbed the last remaining strength of the little golden man Absolut Tartarus into his own body.

Her smooth, light blue hair is combed back, with neat bangs hanging in front of her forehead. The side ponytails tied with ribbons on both sides give her a slightly youthful look. The two strands of bangs on her forehead seem to have been permed before, highlighting her noble and ladylike temperament.

Although her expression was indifferent, her delicate facial features were still lively, her light golden eyes were bright and elegant, and her small face had the cuteness unique to a 16-year-old girl. This person was none other than Toyokawa Shoko.

"Huh? Did I bump into something and my stockings fell off?" Shoko Toyokawa suddenly had the illusion that she had bumped into something, but after looking around, she didn't see anything else in the room except those beer cans that only made her feel disgusted.

"Ding ding ding!" The part-time job alarm set on the mobile phone rang again, which brought Shoko Toyokawa back to her senses.

"If I don't go out now, I'm going to be late for work and my stockings will fall off. Today is the first time I'm late for work, which is not good..." Shoko Toyokawa adjusted her thoughts, picked up the only bag she brought from that house, and walked out without looking back.

Following the address given by the agent, Shoko Toyokawa found her way to an indoor fishing ground that can be found everywhere on the street, but she saw a huge sign with the word "Universe" on it.

"Universe Indoor Fishing Ground? It's clearly a place for fishing, but why is it called Universe? How weird..." After Shoko Toyokawa raised her head to confirm that she had not come to the wrong place, she was about to raise her hand to knock on the door.

Just as her slender fingers were raised and before she knocked on the door of the Universe Indoor Fishing Ground, Toyokawa Shoko suddenly thought of the intermediary figure who looked a little strange and claimed to be a prophet.

Shoko Toyokawa hesitated for a while, but when she thought about the salary amount that the other party had mentioned before, which she could not refuse, she made up her mind and knocked on the door of the Universe Indoor Fishing Ground.

"Knock, knock, knock." Slender fingers knocked on the glass door, making a pleasant sound, which made people wonder whether the owner of the fingers was engaged in any musical activities.

"Creaky" The old glass door made a stiff creaking sound when it was pulled open by someone inside.

A figure covered in a black robe appeared from the Universe Indoor Fishing Ground. Seeing the other person's appearance, Shoko Toyokawa took two steps back in surprise.

"Are you the fat sheep today?" The voice of the black-robed figure sounded like two weathered bones colliding and rubbing against each other.

"Fat sheep? I don't understand what you are saying, sir. I am Shoko Toyokawa who is here to apply for a job today." The etiquette that Shoko Toyokawa had cultivated over the past ten years allowed him to respond politely and appropriately when facing the black-robed figure opposite him.

“Yes

"Yes, it's you! Everyone's been waiting impatiently." The black-robed figure looked as if he had found a top-notch find. He chuckled twice, then turned and was about to lead Toyokawa Shoko into the Cosmic Indoor Fishing Grounds.

After the black-robed figure took a few steps, he found that Toyokawa Shoko behind him had not yet taken a step to catch up with him, and he was a little confused for a moment.

"Oh, yes, this is the deposit we agreed on before." The black-robed figure took out two stacks of money from his arms and threw them to Shoko Toyokawa who was still standing outside the door.

Shoko Toyokawa quickly reached out to catch the money that the black-robed figure was running towards him. After holding the money in his hand, Shoko Toyokawa looked closely and found something wrong.

"Wasn't it originally agreed upon that it would be one million? But here we have two million worth of stockings." Even though Shoko Toyokawa was in dire straits and very short of money, she was still unwilling to get the extra money without any explanation.

"Think of the extra money as my appreciation for you means I'm giving you an advance on your salary." The black-robed figure said this and then laughed.

Shoko Toyokawa looked at the money in her hand, and quickly followed the black-robed figure and handed him the extra stack of money.

The black-robed figure felt more and more satisfied when he saw the stack of money handed over by Toyokawa Shoko.

The black-robed figure knew that if he didn't take the stack of money, the girl of outstanding character in front of him would not follow him in, so the black-robed figure happily took the stack of money handed over by Toyokawa Shoko.

Seeing the black-robed figure silently taking the money and continuing to walk deeper into the darkness, Toyokawa Shoko put the deposit that belonged to her into her small bag and hurriedly followed the black-robed figure and disappeared into the darkness.

Shoko Toyokawa curiously followed the black-robed figure through the fishing grounds under the Universe Indoor Fishing Grounds and came to a cashier counter underground. The black-robed figure did not make any movement, and the ground of the cashier counter suddenly cracked, revealing a secret passage hidden in it leading to the underground.

"!" Shoko Toyokawa didn't expect that in the cosmic indoor fishing ground that can be seen everywhere, there is such a secret passage leading to the underground.

"I believe you also know that if you are just working in an indoor fishing ground disguised as an outside job, it is impossible to give you one million as a deposit, right?" The voice of the black-robed figure became more and more gloomy.

"Of course I know about falling stockings..." Toyokawa Shoko gritted her teeth, and after thinking about the stack of money that she had put in her small bag, she still followed the figure in black robe.

After passing a relatively dark staircase leading underground, a little light suddenly illuminated Shoko Toyokawa's vision.

There was a red carpet at the end of the stairs, and at the end of this carpeted road was a gorgeously decorated gate.

Standing at the door was a row of young girls of marriageable age wearing various clothes and stockings. They were all of different shapes and sizes, and their looks could be considered above average. They looked like girls who came to work part-time at a nearby school.

"Hehehe, are you relieved now? They also work here like you." The black-robed figure spoke, as if he was afraid that Toyokawa Shoko would run away in the next moment.

"Do I have to work here dressed like this too..." Shoko Toyokawa swallowed and wondered if she really had to give up her last bit of dignity for money?

Didn't I choose to be a customer service representative and be self-reliant just to protect the last bit of dignity I have left?

But when she thought about the current situation at home, Shoko Toyokawa was still unable to turn around and leave.

"Don't worry, I didn't call you here for this." The voice of the black-robed figure became increasingly dry.

These girls were obviously very familiar with greeting customers, or maybe the hidden entertainment venue here was run by gangsters. In addition to gangsters, the people who usually come here to consume include strange guys like the black-robed figure. Therefore, even if a strange combination like Toyokawa Shoko and the black-robed figure appeared here, the girls did not feel any different. If they had to say something, it was Toyokawa Shoko's pretty face and the aristocratic temperament on her body. Some of the girls with special interests and hobbies were already thinking about how to secretly give their contact information to Toyokawa Shoko.

"Welcome to the underground red-light district~" No matter what the girls were thinking, they all bowed and greeted each other obediently.

Shoko Toyokawa followed the black-robed figure into the gate, and what came into view was a bustling street built underground, with all kinds of people. There was no entertainment activity here that Shoko Toyokawa could not find.

Perhaps it was because of the black-robed figure or the aura that had infected Toyokawa Shoko for many years, but as soon as they walked in, a person who looked like the lobby manager hurriedly came up to greet them with a smile after seeing the black-robed figure and Toyokawa Shoko walk in.

"Excuse me, do you two have reservations already, or would you like us to recommend some entertainment activities?" The man who seemed like a lobby manager spoke in a tone that was obviously professionally trained and in the most comfortable voice.

"I'm here to look for someone. Is Itabashi Mitsuo at the Colosseum?" the black-robed figure asked. After all, this top-quality item today was found and introduced by Itabashi Mitsuo. If Itabashi Mitsuo was here now, he would have to be brought along when enjoying it. This was an unwritten rule between them.

"Sir, we have a rule here that we cannot disclose the information of our guests. How about changing your request?" The man who seemed to be the lobby manager suddenly realized that the strange combination of the black-robed figure and Toyokawa Shoko were here to seek revenge. After all, working in a place like this, he had seen too many scenes of people coming to seek revenge.

What men like lobby managers fear most are those who come to the Flower Street to seek revenge but whom they cannot afford to offend. After all, they are just a humble worker, and the salary paid by their boss is not high enough for them to stop the troublemakers for the sake of this Flower Street regardless of their own safety. If it were just ordinary people causing trouble, they would just need to ask the security guards to drive them out. However, the mysterious man in front of him, who was wrapped in a black robe, and the beautiful girl beside him, who looked extraordinary in appearance and temperament, did not look like ordinary people at all. If they made this old man unhappy, they might lose more than just their job.

"Um, what do you think of this guest?" The man who looked like the lobby manager took out a handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat from his head.

"Tsk, what a hassle." Although the black-robed figure could directly change the cognition of men like the lobby manager, his main purpose today was to go to the Colosseum located in this underground red-light district and enjoy the top-quality goods he had just found today.
