Chapter 280

Qi Ming remembers very clearly that in the episode "The Monster User and the Boy," this large group of people was not harmed by the boy's superpowers, and they didn't even see the boy release superpowers with their own eyes.

They just listened to the one-sided words of the three beastly middle schoolers, thinking "This kid who digs holes all day is definitely problematic; it turns out he's an alien who will bring us bad luck," and wanted to kill him.

At that time, Hideki Go chose restraint, did not use the super strength granted to him by Ultraman, and was tightly held back by the mob.

And the Metron Alien in the house, seeing Zoujiu Wenliang being dragged on the ground and about to be executed, couldn't bear it and stood out, eventually being shot to death by the police.

The cruel ending was destined, and Hideki Go could only kneel on the ground in pain.

And Qi Ming has always been accustomed to holding the situation firmly in his palm, not allowing even half a deviation.

A police officer quietly grips the gun at his waist, which immediately draws Qi Ming's attention.

He swings the bat down fiercely, making the officer's gun fly out of his hand, the wrist bone making a crisp cracking sound; he falls to his knees, clutching his wrist and wailing.

"I don't believe you alone can beat all of us!" A yellow-haired guy jumps out and shouts, and Qi Ming sweeps the bat across.

"Crack!"

The sound of ribs breaking is clearly audible, and the yellow-haired guy is thrown out like a kite with a broken string, lying on the ground coughing up blood foam.

At this point, no one dares to take the initiative to attack, but Qi Ming doesn't intend to stop, starting to settle accounts with those who just abused Zoujiu Wenliang.

"Do you think I can't see you just because you're hiding in the back?" He swings the wooden stick straight at a skinny monkey who was hiding in the back throwing stones.

"Smack!"

"Don't!" The man screams, his shoulder already collapsed, and his whole body goes limp on the ground.

The light in the eyes of the boy Zoujiu Wenliang keeps magnifying; in the past, he was always excluded and bullied as an alien, and this kind of situation had never happened.

Moroboshi Dan advises Qi Ming to stop, saying the lesson has already been given, and the reason they used private lynching on the innocent boy was also out of fear of the unknown alien, which is understandable.

Qi Ming stops swinging the bat and kicks a nearby police officer: "I don't believe they can learn a lesson."

The next moment, the roar of armored vehicles approaches from near to far.

Amidst the flying dust, three camouflage-painted armored vehicles surround this open space in a fan shape.

Soldiers in military uniforms hold guns, their black muzzles aimed at Qi Ming and Zoujiu Wenliang in the center of the crowd.

The Defense Force has arrived.

"Nobody move!" A cold and hard command comes from the loudspeaker.

The fully armed soldiers quickly get out of the vehicles, their eyes under the tactical helmets having no temperature at all.

Qi Ming protects Zoujiu Wenliang behind him; he can feel the boy's thin body trembling.

Aihara Ryu gets off the front armored vehicle; he frowns after seeing Qi Ming: "You are Qi Ming of the Victory Team, why are you abusing citizens?"

Qi Ming says unhurriedly: "These adults bully a child by relying on their strong physique, so I'll bully them too, letting them understand the feeling of being bullied; how educational."

Aihara Ryu gets a headache; Junya Ryu was indeed right, this Qi Ming is not only extraordinary in skill but also sharp in words.

He has to change the subject: "We are here to capture the evil alien; I heard he mimicked a child who can make objects float in mid-air."

Qi Ming: "There is no evil alien here."

At this time, a police officer with a bloody face struggles to get up and points at Qi Ming: "It's the kid behind him—he's an alien! An alien who will bring disaster!"

Intimidated by Qi Ming, the citizens who were about to scatter gain confidence when they see a dozen Defense Force soldiers with live ammunition.

They also start talking all at once, testifying one after another that Zoujiu Wenliang is an alien, but the crazy Victory Team not only doesn't eliminate them but also attacks them, the innocent citizens, to protect this bastard alien.

Hearing this, Aihara Ryu looks at Qi Ming with questioning eyes.

Qi Ming maintains the same attitude: "There is no evil alien here; also, don't blame me for not warning you in advance, if you dare to lose your temper in front of me, it will affect your height."

Aihara Ryu: "Affect height?" He has only heard that picky eating leads to nutritional imbalance and not growing tall, but he has never heard that losing one's temper also leads to not growing tall.

Qi Ming: "Yeah, if you dare to mess around, I'll break your legs."

Aihara Ryu's expression becomes visibly ugly.

The situation reaches a stalemate; Aihara Ryu's adjutant calls headquarters to report the situation.

"Minister Jiantong, the target has been found, but the Victory Team people are also here and have controlled the target first."

Minister Jiantong in the distance is already imagining the praise of the citizens and the affirmation of his superiors after the alien is eliminated; hearing the situation has changed, he immediately shows an unhappy look: "What's going on, how many people are on the other side?"

Adjutant: "Two people, one is Captain Moroboshi Dan, and the other is that Qi Ming."

Minister Jiantong: "Qi Ming? The 'coolest, strongest, and most handsome man' that the media often talks about on TV news?"

Adjutant: "Yes, it is rumored that he is the strongest man on the surface who can fight a hundred alone."

Minister Jiantong is dismissive: "It's just hype by TPC to launch a brand; any normal person can understand how much water is in those deeds of his."

"I don't care who is on the other side; in order to fight against those aliens with ulterior motives, we soldiers must be brave and forge ahead, clearing all obstacles!"

"To put it bluntly, it's just two people; can't a dozen guns suppress them?"

The adjutant is somewhat embarrassed: "If we use guns, it won't be easy to control; if we accidentally hit their vital parts, I'm afraid we won't be able to explain it to TPC."

Minister Jiantong has an indifferent tone: "There's no need to be hesitant; if they dare to be accomplices of aliens, even if they are really hurt, it's their own fault."

Since his promotion, he has learned many core secrets that only high-level officials have the right to know.

The Defense Force is far from as simple as it looks on the surface; they have many trump cards!

A year ago, "Salome Aliens" had manufactured a mechanical Ultraseven, whose combat power was almost not weaker than the real Imaginary Saiwen, and it was only shattered after losing one move to the real one.

The Defense Force secretly recovered the fragments of the mechanical Imaginary Saiwen but has been unable to repair it.

But recently, the progress of the experimental group seems to have advanced by leaps and bounds as if helped by God.

Not only is the mechanical Imaginary Saiwen in sight of being repaired, but it can also continue to be enhanced on the original basis.

Once successful, the Defense Force will obtain an Ultraman that can be controlled by them, and TPC will not be able to compete with them at all!

Let alone solving TPC, with the power of Ultraman, ruling the entire Earth will be a piece of cake!

Also, a few months ago, an alien who claimed to come from the Neriru Planet, named 【Kofu】, found the Japanese Cabinet.

It said it liked the beautiful Earth very much, and for this reason, it hoped to gain human trust and eliminate human prejudice and fear of aliens.

So it was willing to cooperate with human investigation and research on itself to prove that it really wanted to come to Earth to make friends with humans.

After a preliminary check that this alien named 【Kofu】 had no attack ability, the Cabinet secretly transferred it to the Defense Force's research facility.

Jiantong, who was asked to be responsible for this matter, was very surprised at the time; he didn't expect there would be such a naive alien; it seems humans can be considered a high-IQ species in the universe. In any case, having an alien with extremely high endurance who is willing to cooperate with them for high-intensity live experiments is definitely a good thing, which can make the Defense Force's technological level in the biological field advance by leaps and bounds.

Knowing the foundation of the Defense Force, he naturally won't take TPC too seriously.

On the other end of the phone, Sima Hui, as Jiantong's confidant, is also there, and he also suggests at the right time that TPC has been too arrogant recently and it's time to dampen their spirit.

Jiantong nods: "Let's do it this way; let the bumpkins of TPC see the ability of our well-trained elite soldiers cooperating with each other!"

After the call ends, the adjutant looks very helpless.

He looks at Qi Ming, who is calm and composed in the face of a dozen elite soldiers, and feels an invisible sense of oppression from him.

"I have studied his deeds... this guy probably underwent some gene modification surgery; he is terrifyingly strong."

"But we don't need to have a direct conflict with him; since capturing the alien alive is impossible, let's find a good opportunity to bypass him and kill that alien directly."

"After the alien's life activities stop and it reveals its true colors under the disguise, he will have nothing to say."

After thinking for a while, the adjutant gives such instructions.

The subordinates receive the order and start to disperse their positions, starting to find sniper angles.

The Metron Alien observing in the dilapidated shack sees this and hurriedly walks out of the house tremblingly: "Don't make things difficult for the child; I am the alien!"

After saying this, he falls to the ground directly; his physical condition is already so bad that he can't even stand.

"Uncle!" The boy Zoujiu Wenliang screams.

The Metron Alien barely stands up with a cane, panting while speaking: "Little Liang is just a child who kindly takes care of me; he is not an alien; let him go, come at me for anything."

He feels that he didn't have many days left anyway, so he might as well prove Zoujiu Wenliang's innocence in exchange for his future safety.

Hearing this, the whole field is in an uproar.

"Everyone, if we don't get rid of him, who knows what will happen in the future!" Among the citizens just now, a pastry shop owner shouts, immediately gaining everyone's approval.

Some people want to throw sharp stones to kill the Metron Alien like in the original series, but after being glanced at by Qi Ming, a chill rises from the bottom of their hearts, and they don't dare to act rashly.

Aihara Ryu is not bluffed; always speechless in the verbal argument with Qi Ming, he looks at Moroboshi Dan: "Team Captain, how do you explain this?"

Moroboshi Dan: "The Metron Alien saved this boy; he is a kind-hearted alien with no intention of aggression; he just wants to return to his hometown."

Aihara Ryu: "How can you trust an alien because of such a thing! What if these are its disguises? You can't have these expectations for aliens!"

Qi Ming is full of surprise: "You don't seem to be qualified to say this. Ultraman is also an alien, but you scolded the streets like a shrew because they were unfavorable in protecting the city when eliminating monsters and destroyed a few buildings; have you forgotten this?"

Hearing this, Aihara Ryu's face turns blue and white.

He lost control of his emotions at the time, not expecting someone to be filming and recording those words that he regrets to this day.

At this time, the adjutant makes a gesture, and the three soldiers who secretly adjusted their positions and found angles fire together.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

It's here; this scene in the original series still happens; the pitch-black muzzle sprays flames, and the evil bullets shoot toward the exhausted Metron Alien!

"I'm not blind; I saw your little actions long ago." At this moment, Qi Ming's speed is fast to the extreme.

"Ding!" Amidst the crisp sound of metal collision, Qi Ming's index finger flicks on the bullet head, causing the trajectories of the three bullets to deflect.

The first bullet grazes the earlobe of the police officer who just stood out to complain, plowing a blood groove on that greasy face.

"My ear!" The police officer who just treated the Defense Force as a backer falls to his knees, clutching his face with both hands and screaming.

The second bullet penetrates the right knee of the pastry shop owner who was clamoring to kill the Metron Alien; he falls immediately, clutching his shattered knee and letting out a pig-like howl.

The third bullet hits the middle schooler Taizhi's butt, and the bullet is deeply embedded in his gluteus maximus.

Although he was just slapped by Qi Ming with a stick until his mouth was full of blood foam and he couldn't get up from the pain, Qi Ming still remembers this culprit.

"Awooooo!!!"

A heart-piercing scream tears through the sky; Taizhi jumps up like he was electrocuted, clutching his butt tightly with both hands, his face twisted into an inhuman shape.

His legs go soft like cooked noodles, stomping and spinning crazily on the spot, looking just like a frog thrown into boiling oil.

"Hit the alien! Why use guns to hit us!"

"Why is the Defense Force so unreliable!"

The police and the pastry shop owner are also cursing, and the surrounding citizens also cast suspicious gazes.

What's going on; why is it that today the ones hurting people are the Victory Team, and the Defense Force who should have been protecting them?

The Metron Alien is also stunned; the moment the gunshot rang out, he closed his eyes in resignation, but after opening his eyes, he found that nothing happened to him at all.

"Uncle, are you okay!" Zoujiu Wenliang lunges over and hugs the Metron Alien.

"I'm fine, I'm fine..." The Metron Alien looks up at Qi Ming, vaguely feeling that it was the change made by the moment he raised his hand just now.

Aihara Ryu is stunned, then furious: "Who told you to fire!"

I'm still negotiating!

"Whoosh!" The adjutant, who doesn't believe in evil, pulls the trigger, and the bullet rotates toward the Metron Alien's brow.

Moroboshi Dan raises his cane, the metal tip colliding with the bullet to create dazzling sparks, and the bullet that changed direction grazes the adjutant's right hand holding the gun, knocking away the service pistol he just pulled out.

The scene is dead silent; the adjutant looks at his bleeding tiger's mouth, his eyes dazed.

Qi Ming jokes: "The Captain is really gentle; he only grazed the skin of his hand."

"Isn't this fine?" Moroboshi Dan, who just saw the micro-action after Qi Ming raised his hand, says.

"Hit too lightly; they won't learn a lesson." Qi Ming takes out the baseball bat again.

"Daring to fire in front of me, you should have been prepared, right." He shows a kind smile to the Defense Force soldiers.
