Ultraman, is this defense team up with you?

……

Carmilla's dormitory.

Ye Cheng came here again, but it was clear that he no longer had the chance to return to the goddess's bed.

Sitting on the sofa.

In his hand was a cup of black tea that Carmilla had personally brewed.

Opposite her was Carmilla, dressed in loose black pajamas, displaying a full V-shaped figure.

"What does the vice-captain want to talk to me about?"

Sitting across from Carmilla, Ye Cheng felt as if he were experiencing an unbearable challenge.

Carmilla naturally noticed Ye Cheng's embarrassment and found it quite amusing.

Especially when I think of those serious and earnest Ultraman characters in tokusatsu shows.

Leaning forward further showcased her exceptional personal strength, her arms supporting her chin on her crossed, rounded legs as she carefully observed the contrast provided by Ye Cheng.

"Don't be nervous, we're just having a casual chat." And incidentally, they'll decide Tsuchibashi Yu's fate.

Of course, Carmilla is no longer the straightforward and naive girl she once was.

In order to get the true thoughts of Ye Cheng, the prime minister on whom she placed high hopes, Carmila did not choose to ask directly whether or not to kill Tsuchihashi Yu, but decided to use a roundabout approach.

Will Ultraman unconditionally protect all humans?

After teasing Ye Cheng a little, Carmila, having satisfied her wicked sense of humor, quickly sat up straight.

"I don't think so."

This is true even if we disregard Ye Cheng himself.

Even Seven, who loved humanity the most, showed a wavering in his beliefs after learning that humanity had devised a "friendship" plan to invade other planets.

It is clear that Ultraman does not protect humanity unconditionally.

"What kind of person would Ultraman abandon?"

"Perhaps...someone who invades others?"

Ye Cheng answered this question from the perspective of Ultraman from the Land of Light.

After all, he didn't think Ultraman was referring to him, or rather, he didn't think that someone like him, whose thoughts were more like those of an ordinary person, was worthy of the heroic role models on screen from his childhood.

That's too tiring. He doesn't deserve it, nor does he want to. He just wants to be himself and do what he believes is right and within his capabilities while living a comfortable life.

As for Ultraman from the Land of Light, as long as you don't cross the line, even if you point a gun at him and berate and insult him, he will still save you when you are in danger.

But once the bottom line is crossed!

For example, Earthlings could invade other civilizations just like aliens.

Even Seven, who loves humanity the most, would choose to investigate first, and only after witnessing the death of his friend Furuhashi and seeing the evil of the enemy would he acquiesce to Earth taking revenge.

"Invasion?"

"If someone attacks you when you transform, hindering your protection of the Earth, wouldn't that be considered aggression?"

"No, but if he's in danger, I won't save him anymore."

As he answered, Ye Cheng smiled, finally understanding Carmilla's purpose in meeting him.

"Is the vice-captain worried that I'll act impulsively and go straight to get rid of the director? Don't worry! I..."

Carmilla's deep, jewel-like eyes suddenly lit up. "Is it possible?! If you want, we can go and get rid of him together!"

Ye Cheng: "???"

Not a girl? Is this...right? Shouldn't you be telling me to calm down?

Is there something wrong?

Chapter 39 The women around me are all very ambitious

Carmilla's reaction immediately reminded Ye Cheng of the scene where Captain Hebikura pointed a gun at Matsunaga Kaname's forehead. It seemed like the GUTS team members were all a bit strange.

They want to take down the director and even plan to commit crimes as a group. Is this even human language?

"The other party is a director, who is responsible for the safety of billions of people. Think about it carefully, doesn't the other party have even the slightest merit?"

“Is there…is there?”

Ye Cheng's question really stumped Carmilla.

This also prompted Ye Cheng to analyze the situation seriously.

Judging from the fact that Old Deng ordered them to kill the enemy before Ultraman could, and even to attack Ultraman himself who was bravely protecting the Earth, it was indeed a novice.

Especially from the perspective of a purely Earthling,

What if this Ultraman quits? How many innocent Earthlings will this old bastard implicate?

Leaving aside distant examples, the alien behind the Baba-2 fusion beast is, in Ye Cheng's view, a potential case study.

It's hard to say whether the other side won't be turned into an enemy unit by Old Deng's incredible maneuvering.

Thinking about it this way, he himself had to worry about Deng betraying him, and also had to endure Deng creating enemies for him, thus increasing his burden...

"Kill him! He must be killed! This guy is no ordinary menace; we have to strike hard!!!"

Carmilla's eyes lit up, and she instantly stood up. "Alright! I'll go kill them!"

Ye Cheng: "..."

"No, no, no, Vice Captain, I'm not asking you to kill him. Besides, if you kill him, how can you still stand on Earth? And what if the replacement is another scourge like him?"

I can use dark magic to control a monster and kill him without showing my face.

Carmilla really wanted to answer the question in the previous paragraph, but she was afraid that the trust she had painstakingly built with Ye Cheng would be shattered because of this matter, so she could only be extremely cautious.

Moreover, if the goal is to prevent the next director from being just as outrageous, she really can't think of a way.

"How about I become the director?!"

Carmilla's eyes lit up. The so-called director was actually the empress and the head of Earth, a top-level cadre. Not only did he solve the problem, but he also helped her achieve her dream in one step. He was simply a genius!

Moreover, she will support Ye Cheng unconditionally, just like Liu Shan!

Well, she's not like Liu Shan (A Dou), but she could be Ye Cheng's Emperor Zhaolie of Han.

Ye Cheng: "?"

When I put a question mark, it's not that I have a problem, but that I think you have a problem.

Ye Cheng curiously peered over and asked, "Vice Captain, do you have a lot of influence and connections?"

"Uh, (⊙o⊙)... no!"

Carmilla, despite being a mature and sophisticated woman, looked completely bewildered when asked the question.

Ye Cheng: "..."

"Don't joke with me at a time like this, Vice Captain. How can you become the director without someone recommending you? If you want to seize power, you need to have your own core team."

"Isn't having you enough?"

"I appreciate your high regard for me, but even if Zhu Yuanzhang were alive, and I had a person growing on my liver, I couldn't possibly handle all the problems that should be dealt with by high-ranking officials all by myself."

"Then what do you suggest we do?" Carmila hung her head in dejection, rubbing her temples in distress.

But at the same time, he also became interested in Zhu Yuanzhang, whom Ye Cheng had mentioned.

Judging from the Prime Minister's tone, the other person seems to be a very hardworking person. I wonder if there are any admirable qualities she has that I can learn from. I might find out about her another day.

"Of course, we should deal with Tsuchibashi Yu's faction first, and ensure the normal transfer of power in the way of Earthlings, handing power over to a normal person."

This approach is compliant and leaves no hidden dangers; even if the Kingdom of Light were to come, they wouldn't be able to find fault with it.

"Okay, so what are the specifics?"

"First, dig up his dirt."

How do we dig?

"Of course... we'll send out the invincible Emi!"

"and then?"

"Take action against him based on the dirt on him."

Carmilla had thought Ye Cheng was helpless, but she didn't expect him to come up with an idea so quickly and speak so eloquently. She immediately thought to herself that he was indeed her good prime minister and her external brain.

But... "Do I really have no chance?"

Carmilla was still a little unwilling to give up, so she hugged Ye Cheng's arm and winked cutely at close range.

"Even using a honey trap won't work, Vice Captain. I can't decide whether you become the Director."

"Sigh..." Carmilla sighed.

"I remember Ye Cheng once saved a high-ranking official? Is he reliable?"

……

After that, Ye Cheng and Carmilla went out together and found Hui Mei.

Now that it's been determined that Tsuchihashi Yu is no ordinary pest, Ye Cheng naturally won't show any mercy.

Time waits for no one. The period during which Tsuchihashi Yu is in prison is almost the easiest time to obtain dirt on him. Maybe... well, there are definitely many people already taking action right now.

When Ye Cheng brought Carmilla to Huimei's room, he saw Huimei in her cute form, dressed in fluffy pajamas, ready to go to sleep.

So much happened tonight that she was only just getting ready to rest.

Huimei was very happy and enthusiastic when Ye Cheng came to visit for the first time. "Why did you come in the middle of the night? Could it be that..."

Hui Mei raised an eyebrow, wanting to tease Ye Cheng.

But upon noticing the beautiful figure behind the other person, his expression changed instantly, he rolled his eyes, and his enthusiasm waned considerably.

"come in."

In the makeshift kitchen, Huimei was fiddling with tea utensils.

"Is boiling water okay?"

"Let's switch to black tea."

Huimei raised an eyebrow. "Or the unconscious version?"

Where did this "still" come from? Ye Cheng could tell at a glance that she was jealous and wanted to deliberately provoke Carmilla.

Whether it was genuine jealousy or just playful teasing, Ye Cheng had no way of knowing.

But Ye Cheng was very clear about one thing: Hui Mei had misjudged the vice-captain's feelings for him. How could such a petty scheme possibly anger Carmila?

With a thousand thoughts swirling in his mind, Ye Cheng couldn't help but chuckle, but quickly became serious.

"A pick-me-up, we have something big to do tonight."

Sensing the seriousness in Ye Cheng's tone, Hui Mei also became serious, taking out tea leaves and brewing three cups of strong, invigorating tea.

He handed the teacup to Ye Cheng and Carmilla, who were sitting on either side of the long sofa, and then sat down between them.

"What's the big deal? Tell me!"

Throughout this time, Huimei observed Carmilla's reaction, and what puzzled her was that Carmilla did not show any emotional fluctuation in response to her actions.

Is he a master? Or...?

They treated Ye Cheng like that, they must be experts, right?

"...That's just the way it is."

When Ye Cheng fully explained his intentions, Hui Mei, who had been multitasking at first, was completely stunned, her mouth agape in an "O" shape.

"what?"

After a while, Huimei, who had come to her senses, frowned.
