NO.252:The happy little bird who's good at saying cool remarks

If there are guards, then there's no problem.

Majibasa watched the two people leave, then immediately turned back to do the explanatory and comforting work.

Although the Carrot Hero, like most tokusatsu-style transformation systems, even if one writes down numerical data such as punching force, kicking force in tons, speed in meters per second, the actual performance remains unpredictable, and records across generations inherently show clear differences; moreover, refining conclusions about how each form performs becomes even more varied.

But if a ninja-styled character takes on guard duty, their professional match could be considered a Best Match.

After all, it's well known that a ninja's main duties are always assassination, guarding, or scouting.

The ninjas of Xinqiyu and the ninja village are obviously a different matter, while the ninja in the Carrot Hero team…… the Aomo main body beside the racetrack exhibition hall entrance simply sketched some data and let Xiqi Feng go, not even planning to send a puppet clone.

After all, it's a feat of single-handedly breaking through even a B‑level disaster, and with Xiqi Feng obviously consciously spending money to equip himself with various miraculous and expensive little gadgets, if this were to fail, it would probably be because they ran into a lunatic gunman.

Anyone capable of causing a B‑level disaster or greater in the city can only be a lunatic gunman, after all, because taking action means preparing mentally to face a coordinated response from the entire Jiemen district police and military; even if you're confident you can flee, you have to think about how you'll spend your days hiding east and west.

For higher‑rated criminals, the Federation always shifts from its usual passive laziness to show you what the information age, the sublimation age, cross‑border manhunt, and united strength of the Star Alliance are like.

Even having reached this crime level and still looking in decent shape, Aomo has indeed seen such types before—the Beast King is undoubtedly a typical example—but you obviously can't expect a second Beast King to appear.

By contrast, the chat room member named Kanlong in the Gui Yuan Zhi Tang is a wanted‑person of middling rank; Aomo occasionally wonders, while idling in the water group, whether this person will one day prepare to take on a high‑difficulty achievement in the underworld, but so far there's no sign of it.

Only seeing that the updates and market discussions of the Secret Key have been increasing month by month, the status of the relatively quiet Aomo group has gradually risen, and each time they post they can be greeted by a bunch of people.

That's certainly not because his collection keeps growing, but because everyone in the chat room has their own information channels; even though Aomo's desire to share outwardly is extremely low, and internet bragging hardly ever falls to him, it doesn't hinder the fact that everyone knows about his work promoting the monster‑related industry.

Among them, a certain friend who has met in reality several times and even greeted during holidays—the dragon manager group member—naturally played a major role.

Yes, the manager of the Magic Dragon clan, Xingjiali, is a typical contrast: his work is an intelligent magic staff, while his hobby is entirely in dragon form; considering his species, this preference is indeed normal, even somewhat traditional, but the point here is not that—it's that he and Aomo both keep tabs on recent developments, and he also enjoys group chats.

Hope you understand, when you have a friend who's always in the work‑related water group and keeps asking what you've been busy with, and that friend is also in the same group, and the group's topics often relate to your achievements——

How will he strongly trigger your keyword reminder in the system settings?

Huh? You ask why Aomo would set a keyword reminder?

It's the opposite—it would be stranger if he didn't set a keyword reminder for what others call him.

Although after becoming a notable figure he blocked most private messages and emails via the intelligent management service, if someone in his social circle mentions their situation, he still won't miss it at all.

After all, this is information too.

Information is intelligence, it's a resource; once stacked, it can prepare against future mishaps, turning every variable into a constant‑like sense of security. Aomo Lindun has always been accumulating them in a proactive‑yet‑relatively‑passive way, so as to avoid losing another close one.

"Xun… where's Xizi?"

"There was no reply during the process of guarding against the manipulator," facing the few Carrot Heroes who swiftly returned after the battle, Aomo's puppet bluntly replied, "But I guess he'll soon contact you all for help—after all, that spacetime monster's withdrawal just now was very unnatural."

"Huh? Guess…"

"Where should we go to find him?"

"MINOLTA Planetarium and its surroundings."

"Don't be impulsive, Caoni!"

The Carrot Hero with the blue helmet and belt pattern still wanted to remark on Aomo's response, but the green‑teammate's quick question and quick answer were followed by the teammate leaping up swiftly, so fast that even the yellow‑shouted could not keep up, turning their head to look at the blue‑gold little bird.

"Are you sure what you said is accurate?"

Although wearing a helmet, that distrustful tone came through completely; without needing Aomo to answer, their own communication devices would ring, and upon answering they'd receive the same instruction:

"Everyone hurry to the MINOLTA Planetarium! The target is fleeing! We need personnel to tighten the encirclement!"

"What do you want me to do?"

"Go!"

A brief stare invited that retort; the yellow‑system Carrot Hero didn't say more, immediately flashing to fall in step with the green teammate, still holding the authority to lead the team.

According to the usual squad stereotype, this kind of captain‑like role should always be taken by the red‑system, yet in this team the red‑system is not only below average in height, but also shows a clear problem of hesitant silence whenever facing Aomo's puppet's gaze.

If it weren't for having anticipated the face beneath that helmet, one could suspect the other was just a fan; but precisely because we anticipated it, the limited interaction still producing this reaction merely points to what Xizi Feng and Sai Luo might have said.

Perhaps even that yellow‑system's slight hostility toward themselves is also due to the misunderstanding caused by the red‑system's reaction.

But it's not important either.

In the short term, and possibly even long term, there will be no interaction beneath the mask; that courteous little bird, appearing to strive earnestly to discuss the situation and compensation sharing with everyone (mainly via the neutral account provided by government regulations and the AI Three Goddesses), merely glanced at the direction where a batch of people were about to suffer, sighing with extraordinary indifference.

"Directly at the planetarium, sounds pretty smooth."

Compared to the nearby alleys, shops, or even farther places, taking the planetarium interior as the battlefield clearly means that Xizi Feng's side is holding on tight, after all, in his simulation calculations the opponent should not have the leisurely premise of 'let's just play with them for a while.'

Given that staying a few more minutes would invite police encirclement, the otherworldly believers already accustomed to hiding east and west ought to display extraordinary cunning and vigilance.

But even so, the very act of hunting using the planetarium as a game reserve obviously carries obvious risks of friendly fire and loss.

Once this is taken into account, it really shouldn't be called smooth.

But that's also a problem the Carrot Hero team itself needs to consider.

Has nothing to do with Aomo.

After all, Majibasa is just a little bird.
