Chapter 58

The next few days passed without incident, and Qi Ming's Star Gift points reached 4.

Emi found that Moroboshi Dan's expression was somewhat unnatural when facing Qi Ming these days.

Qi Ming was as usual, paying attention to the situation of the Sedic Technology Company during this period.

When he heard that Masaki Keigo was caught off guard and was now in a hurry, with a gloomy expression when facing the investigation team's entry, he was very satisfied.

This afternoon, a new situation occurred.

An abnormal vibration occurred in a quarry in the suburbs of Tokyo, requesting the Victory Team to be dispatched for investigation.

Moroboshi Dan coughed: "An Tian, and Qi Ming, go together; no problem, right?"

He looked at Qi Ming, seeking his opinion.

Qi Ming's expression was normal: "I have no problem."

An Tian also nodded in agreement.

On the way to the hangar, An Tian looked around and saw no one, whispering: "Speak well in a while; fooling around in the cabin is no joke."

He was worried that if things went wrong, he would be "flying man in the air" by Qi Ming directly.

Qi Ming: "Am I a very bad person?"

An Tian subconsciously nodded, then hurriedly shook his head.

…………………………

The yellow Victory Feiyan 1 traveled through the stratosphere; Qi Ming in the back row listened to the sharp whistling sound of the wings tearing the air, his eyes focused on An Tian's hand pulling the joystick.

"Can he really learn by watching?" This thought flashed through An Tian's mind.

If it were in the past, he would definitely say impossible.

But after witnessing Qi Ming's various methods, he began to waver.

So he cleared his throat and explained: "This is the joystick, it can adjust the control surfaces on the wings and tail..."

As he was speaking, Moroboshi Dan's voice sounded:

"Plan changed, a monster appeared in that quarry!"

"Prepare to attack, Xin Xi Tiao and the others will arrive in the No. 2 plane immediately."

Forget it, no need to investigate; the monster has already rushed out from underground.

An Tian drove at full speed immediately; after arriving, the figure waving a whip in front of him was recognized by Qi Ming at a glance.

It's Gudon! He would definitely not recognize this model-level monster wrong.

An Tian: "I am An Tian, have driven Victory Feiyan 1 to the scene; how is the evacuation of ground personnel?"

Emi at the base: "It has been reported that everyone has evacuated."

An Tian: "Good!"

He prepared to show off in front of Qi Ming, this "flight novice," and let him see the senior's superb technology.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Victory Feiyan 1 kept firing green sharp-edge cannons, hitting Gudon with sparks flying all over its body, swaying for a while.

It couldn't fly and had almost no means of attacking the air, so it could only be beaten passively.

After being beaten unilaterally for a while, Gudon realized that it couldn't stay any longer and prepared to dig the soil to escape back to the ground.

"This is a quarry in the suburbs, there are no buildings around, and the crowd has been evacuated; it's just right to use the powerful 'anti-monster missile' to eliminate it in one go." An Tian was passionate at this moment.

And Qi Ming observed the battlefield around him.

"Gudon appeared in the quarry, in the same plane as An Tian, and one factor is still missing... here it comes!"

Qi Ming pulled An Tian: "Team Member An Tian, there is an emergency situation you must know—a girl with a bug-catching net rushed toward Gudon."

An Tian was stunned: "Are you kidding! The crowd has already evacuated!"

In the original *Jack* series, Go Hideki was in the same plane as An Tian; the latter asked Go Hideki to throw the missile, but Go Hideki didn't fire because he saw the little girl with the super vision brought by Jack's attachment.

The result was being scolded well.

Things like "Are you still not awake, isn't there no one there," "I won't let you get away with such a beautiful excuse," "Go needs to be punished for making a mistake."

Finally, Go Hideki was punished with three days of confinement.

Now, it was Qi Ming's turn to face this situation.

Want to pressure me? Sorry, only others have the share of "toasting me."

Qi Ming was not polite either, forcibly sticking a telescope he had prepared in advance onto An Tian's face: "Can you see it now?"

"There really is one!" An Tian's face turned ugly immediately.

He said to the intercom: "Captain, there is a sudden situation; a child wearing a yellow hat has entered the combat area. Qi Ming and I both saw it, now..."

Qi Ming took over the conversation: "Now fire the missile to eliminate the monster."

After speaking, he was about to push the joystick to let the missile fire at the locked Gudon.

An Tian was so scared that his soul flew away, hurriedly stopping him: "Team Member Qi Ming, what are you doing!"

Qi Ming: "Naturally, to eliminate the monster."

An Tian: "Firing an anti-monster missile at this distance, that girl will die!"

Qi Ming: "But if Gudon is not eliminated here, what if it appears in downtown Tokyo next time?"

"Firing an anti-monster missile now only kills one girl; how many people will die if it makes a scene in the city?"

An Tian was stunned after hearing this; his hand holding the joystick trembled, as if holding a huge problem.

"Then... why did you call me just now?" An Tian's tone was dry.

Qi Ming said calmly: "Because after you become a person in the know, we are 'accomplices'; we will carry the guilt and responsibility together."

In short—"An Tian also did it."

An Tian couldn't make a move at all, watching Gudon return underground.

Others in the Victory Team also heard the dispute between the two in the communication channel; even Shan Zhong was shocked by Qi Ming's "ruthlessness" and couldn't speak.

Finally, Moroboshi Dan's voice sounded: "You guys come back first..."

On the way back, An Tian looked at Qi Ming with horror, feeling that this guy was a "person of the demonic path."

Too evil!

After returning to the base, the entire command room was silent, and everyone looked at Qi Ming with awe.

Moroboshi Dan wanted to speak but stopped; if it were before, he would definitely scold Qi Ming for not valuing life and criticize him severely.

But he had been a bit stiff with Qi Ming a few days ago, and he was thinking about how to improve the relationship; of course, he couldn't come out to criticize.

He coughed a few times and let Xin Xi Tiao Miss Qian say a few words.

Xin Xi Tiao Miss Qian nodded and came to An Tian, her face low: "What are you hesitating about? Why didn't you follow Team Member Qi Ming's suggestion to fire the missile? Your mission is to defeat the monster!"

Moroboshi Dan: "?"

His original intention was to let Xin Xi Tiao Miss Qian criticize Qi Ming a few words so he wouldn't go too far in the future.

But in the eyes of Xin Xi Tiao Miss Qian, who "takes defeating monsters as the priority," Qi Ming's approach was very correct!

Isn't it normal for people to die when monsters destroy things? Now letting the monster go, what if a more serious situation is caused when it appears next time?

At this moment, she criticized An Tian severely, and the latter's face turned blue and white.

Qi Ming saw it was about enough and came out to smooth things over:

"No, thinking about it now, perhaps I was too negative and pessimistic, always thinking about the bad side."

"After all, the fundamental purpose of our fighting monsters is to protect humanity and maintain peace."

"If we can find it before the monster appears again and eliminate it, then Team Member An Tian's idea is correct."

As soon as this was said, An Tian couldn't help but cast a grateful look at Qi Ming.

Look, he still has to thank us.
