Simply put, it’s a phone watch—this lets you directly contact the Ultra Key.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Ming: “So you used this to send me voice mails before? But if it’s only for communication, it’s no different from a PDI communicator or a regular phone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xinjiao Qian: “No, even without signal, this phone watch connects directly to the Ultra Key. I made two—here, take them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hui Mei beside him: “So as long as you wear this, you can reach Qi Ming at any time, no matter what?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xinjiao Qian snapped her fingers: “Exactly—as long as it doesn’t run out of battery.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Ming took the two phone watches, thought for a moment: even without signal, Ultramen can communicate via telepathy, so this should go to a human who needs it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he gave the first one to Hui Mei of the Victory Team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xinjiao Qian: “Then give the second one to Karimira.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Ming thought: “That works for her too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After receiving the gift, Karimira’s eyes lit up: “Is this… a love token?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Ming, having learned how to communicate with Karimira over time, replied gently: “No, it’s a lifeline. So you can call me when you fall down a sewer and can’t climb out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karimira: “???”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xinjiao Qian burst out laughing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……………………………………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Birthday?
