The story we started

[“…Your cognition is still stuck in the perspective of the past, so you could only be ‘ME’ before.”]

【“Wait a minute, it’s about to start.”】

[Dorudo's tone was still unhurried, but this made Garima, who was not in a good mood to begin with, raise his eyebrows and open his mouth to express his dissatisfaction. ]

【“Huh? What do you mean——huh!?”】

[Plop——]

[Before he could finish his words, a sound like a heartbeat suddenly rang out from his belt, causing Garima to swallow back all the words that were about to be said.]

[A golden light lit up at the eyes of the demon belt, and then several electric currents of the same color flickered and jumped on the magic stone called Kiboron. Instantly, a severe pain spread throughout the body. The pain was so intense that even a determined Gurongi like Garima couldn't help but groan, curled up with his hands around his waist, and his body kept shaking.]

[“Ugh – my body – what’s happening – ugh!!!”]

[Garima suddenly raised its head, and its pair of black eyes suddenly turned purple, and a hint of green gradually emerged from its right eye, slowly replacing the original pure purple.]

[As the transformation began, cracks emitting purple and blue light began to spread upwards from the neck, and soon covered its beautiful face. The pain flowing through its body became even more severe, causing Garima to let out a scream that was almost like a roar from his throat.]

[On the dark silver belt, the golden light continued to expand from the eyes, and quickly spread to Garima's entire body. The dazzling light illuminated the area around the tunnel.]

[Crunch, crunch—]

[A creepy sound of bones rubbing against each other sounded in the golden light, and Dorudo's expression did not change at all when he saw this scene, and his body was gradually swallowed by the light.]

[“…Welcome to the world of GO.”]

[Dorudo's eyes narrowed due to the dazzling light, and the illuminated brown pupils reflected the figure that gradually distorted its original shape in the light and became extremely huge.]

【“GO-Garima-Ba.”】

【“——”】

[It responded with a roar like a monster's roar and two pairs of huge sickles swung at it.]

[The blood spreading on the ground reflects all of this, witnessing the terrifying demon that was born into this world by sacrificing the lives of innocent people.]

2. The subsequent restart (6K)

【Tokyo, Shibuya-ku. 】

【 10:54 PM 】

[Crash~]

[The armored hand lifted the bloodstained cloth, revealing the scene underneath.]

[The broken head and body were pieced together, and the expression on the man's face still vaguely showed a smile of hope for survival, but it had been frozen forever on his face along with the dilated pupils of his eyes, without any trace of life.]

【“…”】

[Kousaka Kyosuke silently put the cloth back on the body and waved to the medical staff to carry it away. The medical staff saluted him with respect, and then carried the stretcher with the body towards the ambulance parked not far from the tunnel.]

[Through the open back door of the ambulance, one could vaguely see that there were also several stretchers with bulges covered with white cloth inside, and the cloth was also stained red with blood.]

[“We are a step too late... B6 has already left.”]

[Watching the ambulance with the stretcher carried in and the door closed slowly disappearing from sight, Kousaka Kyousuke reached out and took off his helmet, revealing the iron-blue face underneath.]

[As he muttered to himself, Zaimokuza walked out from the shadow of the pillar behind him in a windbreaker. He also looked at the ambulance driving away in silence, but his hands were clenched into fists.]

[“Is there no new information?”]

[He lowered his eyes and asked softly.]

[“No, this is where B6 last appeared. There has been no sightings of it in the following hours.”]

【Kousaka Kyosuke shook his head and answered his question.】

[The so-called B-classification refers to the unique number of the group of unconfirmed life forms that have been witnessed in human form other than Gurongi. For example, Ra-Baruba-De, the first person confirmed by the police as a Gurongi in human form, her registration name is B-group No. 1.]

【As the sixth Garima to be confirmed to be in human form, its code name is B6. 】

[Starting from noon today, the Metropolitan Police Department has received calls from citizens about "a woman killing people with a knife in the street". The police officers who originally thought it was just an ordinary criminal case found that the murderer's image described by those callers was highly similar. This immediately attracted the attention of the Metropolitan Police Department, and they suspected that it was a large-scale serial killing case. ]

[They immediately retrieved the crime scene footage from surveillance cameras. It would have been better if they hadn’t checked, but once they did, they discovered a major problem.]

[A sharp-eyed police officer discovered the problem when the woman in the video was using a sickle to kill a citizen. After still zooming in, they found that the woman had a totem tattoo similar to a praying mantis on her right forearm.]

[The news about the Gurongi human body had been distributed to all subordinate agencies by the superiors long before, and one of the police officers who watched the live video happened to know this information, and confirmed on the spot that Garima might be an unconfirmed life form. ]

[This incident was quickly reported to the Metropolitan Police Department's Unidentified Lifeform Search Headquarters. Kousaka Kyosuke and others immediately took full control of the incident and conducted an intelligence summary.]

[After they collected data from various places, they found that more than a hundred people had been confirmed dead at the hands of Garima, and they completely confirmed the other party's identity.]

[This kind of single-person massacre is something that only that group of monsters are capable of.]

[But this time was different. Garima acted too quickly. By the time the police reacted, everything was already settled.]

[Kousaka Kyosuke and Zaimokuza Yoshiki, who arrived late, could only mourn silently in front of the remains of the victims who had been sent away, their hearts filled with heavy and unwilling emotions. ]

[“The Gurongi that appeared this time was very efficient in committing crimes. According to the crime patterns of those unconfirmed life forms in the past, it has committed crimes so rampantly and there has been no news for several hours. There is only one possibility.”]

[“That is… it has already done what it wanted to do.”]

[Speaking of this, Kousaka Kyosuke turned his head and glanced at the tunnel behind him, his gaze as cold as a knife.]

[Behind him, the entrance to the tunnel and the road inside had completely collapsed, and rubble filled the entire space, just like the disaster site after an earthquake. Firefighters were struggling to move away the rubble that blocked the road.]

[In addition, the ground and trees around the tunnel all looked like they had been hit by a typhoon. The ground was covered with scratches in all directions, and the trees collapsed in the middle one after another. The broken ends were as smooth as if they had been cut by a sharp blade.]

[“According to the eyewitness, he only heard a strange light emanating from the exit of the tunnel, and then a sound similar to that of a wild beast was heard, and the entire tunnel collapsed in an instant. Judging from the damage at the scene, it should be caused by some strong vibration that destroyed the load-bearing structure of the entire tunnel from the inside... or perhaps there are other reasons.”]

[Kousaka Kyosuke squatted down and picked up a stone from his feet - no, that was not a stone. ]

[Although the color and texture are very similar to the surrounding stones, if you look closely, you can see some subtle patterns on this fragment, similar to the remains of some insect wings.]

[Staring at the fragment, Kousaka Kyousuke said thoughtfully.]

[“It seems that my previous speculation was correct. They are not killing for no reason. Once a certain standard is met, these guys will be able to obtain a “reward”, which may be a stronger power, or perhaps something else.”]

[“And now it seems that their standard is obviously… the number of humans killed.”]

[“From the time the crime started to the time it ended, in just five hours, B6 killed a total of three hundred innocent citizens!”]

[The five fingers holding the fragment suddenly tightened. With the performance of the GO armor, not to mention this fragment that looked like a stone, even steel could be easily twisted into a dough stick.]

[Kousaka Kyosuke was obviously very angry. This speculation made the rage in his heart burn fiercely. He almost wanted to crush the scale to vent his anger at the brutal behavior of the Gurongi.]

【What do you think life is? 】

[But he finally calmed down. This fragment might have something to do with B6, which caused this tragic situation. If the speculation is correct, the people in the institute should be able to analyze something from this fragment.]

[“I’m sorry, Mr. Kosaka.”]

【Feeling the anger burning in Kousaka Kyousuke's heart beneath his stern appearance, Zaimokuza said with an apologetic expression.】

[“If I had discovered B6’s crime pattern earlier, perhaps we would have been able to stop it in time, and these people would not have died…”]

“It’s not your fault.”

[Kousaka Kyosuke shook his head slightly, stood up and brushed off the dust in his hands, looking at the dilapidated tunnel exit and sighed helplessly.]

[“You’ve done a good job. If you hadn’t discovered the pattern of B6’s crimes, we might still be in the dark.”]

[“No one expected that B6’s targets were all passengers on the Sobu Line, and even specifically targeted passengers on the same train at the same time.”]

[This unidentified life form case really exceeded everyone's expectations. No one could have expected that B6's crimes would follow a certain pattern, which was completely different from the disorderly killings of its kind in the past.]

[If Zaimokuza had not found the tickets of three consecutive dead people through their belongings by chance, the police might still be wandering around Tokyo like headless flies. Given the size of this city, searching for a specific individual here is like looking for a needle in a haystack.]

[“All of its targets were passengers on the same train. We retrieved the video footage of the Shinkansen train and confirmed that the B6 train was on the Sobu Line at the time. However, it did not kill the passengers on the spot. Instead, it waited until they all got off the train before searching for and killing them one by one... This behavior is really unnecessary and obviously abnormal.”]

[“I think… this should be its rule, that is, you must wait until all passengers get off the bus before you are allowed to kill, otherwise it will be invalid.”]

[“Then my other speculation seems to be confirmed by this discovery.”]

[Kousaka Kyosuke turned his head and looked behind him, his eyes were deep and wise, and that was the direction of the Shinkansen. ]

[“Killing people actually requires specific rules. This is completely different from the methods used by those unidentified life forms in the past… As expected, they have really entered a new stage.”]

[“Then Mr. Kosaka, what should we do next?”]

【Zaimokuza frowned and asked.】

[“Should we continue searching? Since we have discovered its modus operandi, do we need to wait near the Sobu Line and wait for it to come to us?”]

[“Looking for them… I’m afraid it won’t work. We have never given up searching for their hiding places since they woke up from the seal of the ruins, but we have only found them once so far, and they ran away in advance. Apart from that, we have found nothing else. This is enough to show that those guys are very good at hiding themselves and resisting tracking.”]

[Kousaka Kyosuke thought for a while, then shook his head and said.]

[“But just in case, since we already know the clues of B6’s crime, let’s go back to the Metropolitan Police Department and ask our superiors to suspend the entire Sobu Line for a day to see if it has any effect.”]

[“Although this will cause inconvenience to citizens’ travel and cause certain economic losses, human lives are at stake. I believe that citizens will understand.俖”]

[“Then let’s hurry up—ngh!”]

[Before he could finish his words, Zaimokuza suddenly covered his abdomen with his hands, groaned, and half-knelt on the ground. ]

[Plop——]

[He felt the belt inside his body suddenly emit a faint humming sound, and a heart-like pulsation spread from his waist to his body, paralyzing his entire body.]

[At an angle that Zaimokuza himself could not see, his black eyes instantly turned golden, his pupils were as transparent and glittering as crystals reflecting light, and then returned to their normal color in the next blink.]

[“Hey! Zaimokuza!?”]

【Kousaka Kyosuke's expression changed when he saw this, and he immediately squatted down and supported Zaimokuza's shoulders.】

["What's wrong with you? Are you okay?"]

[“I… I’m fine.”]

[Zaimokuza frowned, and with confusion in his eyes, he was helped up by Kousaka Kyousuke and spoke blankly.]

[“Is it that strange throbbing feeling again?”]

[After hearing what he said about the series of changes in the Yamadam belt, Kousaka Kyousuke immediately guessed what was going on and asked with a worried look on his face.]

[“Yes, in the past few days… to be more precise, since the day when I was attacked by that Gurongi, this feeling has become stronger and stronger. Sometimes I am even awakened by it when I sleep.”]

【Zaimokuza nodded with a slight hesitation.】

[“Every time I feel this vibration, I feel as if something is happening to my body, and I can clearly feel… my strength is growing stronger.”]

[“We still don’t know enough about this belt. Although we went to Makishima’s place to check it yesterday, we still couldn’t find any problems.”]

[Kousaka Kyosuke crossed his arms over his chest, tapped the armor on his arms with his fingers, and spoke thoughtfully.]

[“Since modern hospitals can’t find the problem, we can only change direction... Miss Yukinoshita, have you gained anything from interpreting the inscriptions on the ruins recently?”]

[“I have told the minister about this matter and she is investigating it now…but I think this may not be a bad thing.”]

[The numbness had gradually faded away, and Zaimokuza raised his still numb fist and opened it, then gently clenched his palms one by one.]

[Looking at his fist, the emotions in his eyes were very complicated, including disgust, desire, and determination. All kinds of emotions were mixed together. ]

[“Those guys are getting stronger and stronger. It’s too much to fight them with my current strength. If my strength can continue to increase, I should be able to fight them... and protect everyone’s smiles.”]

[At the end of his speech, Zaimokuza raised his head and looked at Kousaka Kyosuke. The familiar smile was on his lips again, and there was no negative emotion in his expression anymore.]

【Looking at this smiling face, Kousaka Kyosuke was silent for a while, then sighed softly and said. 】

[“Although I know you won’t listen to my advice…but I still want to remind you, don’t push yourself too hard.”]

[“You should still remember what she said when I first took you to Makishima for a checkup.”]

[“——If you continue to use this belt like this, you might actually become like them.”]

【"Big husband!"】
