Is that logic really so hard to grasp?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This disrespectful tone made President Hanabira’s eye twitch—he never expected a mere ordinary team member to be so insolent toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emi, long accustomed to Qi Ming’s domineering manner, added her own explanation: “After shutting down the PW waves, the monsters stopped moving, and the earthquakes ceased.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a victory of the controlled variable method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>President Hanabira, barely containing his anger: “Without PW waves, we can’t build the underground city! Your Victory Team—can’t you find a way to deal with that monster?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emi replied calmly, without a trace of anger: “We must first ensure safety on all fronts before the project can proceed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>President Hanabira nearly shouted, pointing his finger at Qi Ming and Emi:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ensure safety on all fronts? Are you going to destroy my life’s dream for that reason?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your Victory Team’s young people are useless—back down at the first sign of trouble, lacking the fearless, sacrificial spirit of the Defense Force!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you can’t come up with a solution, then get out of the way—the Defense Force will eliminate the monster if it appears!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So many original script lines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After listening, Qi Ming laughed and pointed at President Hanabira to Emi: “Yelling like that, he’s got the air of a domestic pig rolling in the mud, scaring everyone away.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emi struggled to hold back her laughter—this was Qi Ming’s style: sharp-tongued, fearless, and always slipping in a dry joke when least expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>President Hanabira froze in disbelief, then erupted in fury: “What are you saying?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Ming didn’t hold back: “I’m saying you should shake your brain matter around before speaking to me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Defense Force you’re counting on has been shattered by Jinyu—right now, dozens of soldiers are lying in hospitals screaming for their mothers.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Many things don’t bend to your money or will. I suggest you stop treating the monster like a government official you can bribe, stop using urine as spinal fluid, and stop thinking you can make a tree move out of your way by honking your horn.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, President Hanabira trembled all over—no one had dared to curse him in years, not at his rank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emi couldn’t help but sweat—what if he died of rage? That would be impossible to explain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“President, Dr. Koizumi has arrived and is waiting for you two Victory Team members in the lounge.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, President Hanabira’s female secretary entered, puzzled by his ashen face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine.” Qi Ming nodded, and before leaving, he left President Hanabira with a warning tone: “That’s all I’ll say—more words are useless. Do as you will.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he spoke, the string labeled “reason” in President Hanabira’s mind snapped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He roared at Qi Ming’s back, his voice as loud as a jet engine: “Who the hell do you think you are, speaking to me like that?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A passing archaeologist. Definitely not your father.” Qi Ming didn’t turn, waved his hand, and left without disturbing a single cloud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…………………………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, Qi Ming and Emi met Dr. Koizumi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wore a white lab coat and thick glasses, looking like a kind, benevolent old man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After taking a small sip from his water cup, Dr. Koizumi asked: “May I ask what brings you two here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emi: “About the urban facilities you designed for Tokyo, and this underground city…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dr. Koizumi: “The underground city is humanity’s dream, Earth’s dream—a grand charter for humanity’s exploration of the unknown.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Ming had no interest in these empty platitudes—he immediately activated the Ultraman’s “See Through” function.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, he saw an invisible thread piercing the back of Dr. Koizumi’s skull.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puppet…” The word flashed through Qi Ming’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Ming cut straight to the point: “Who are you? The person speaking to us now isn’t Dr. Koizumi.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dr. Koizumi looked confused: “What are you talking about, handsome young man? Who else could I be?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Ming: “Stop pretending. Do you think I don’t understand the flow of land and mountains? Your urban plans for Tokyo, this underground city—they’re clearly severing the dragon veins!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Dr. Koizumi stopped defending himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes turned sinister, his face darkened, and he let out a low chuckle: “So not all of you are fools…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, his demeanor changed completely—he was no longer the kind old man; something demonic had awakened inside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emi gasped: “You did this on purpose!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dr. Koizumi said nothing—he “coincidentally” stepped to the window and leapt straight down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was trying to jump to his death!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not a chance!” Qi Ming, who had been watching him closely, moved at blinding speed, grabbed his ankle, and yanked him back up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the returned Dr. Koizumi’s face was black and purple, eyes closed, lifeless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emi cried out: “Poisoned!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Ming frowned: “He swallowed the poison before meeting us—if he could bluff his way through, he’d take the antidote; if not, he’d end up like this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Emi had prepared herself mentally, seeing this still left her stunned: “Dr. Koizumi… is dead…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Ming shook his head: “Perhaps he was already dead—just now finally breathed his last.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Dr. Koizumi had revealed no information verbally, Qi Ming already knew the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mastermind was the [Underground King Bokkun] from the original series “Ultraman Jack”!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the original plot, he used ultrasonic waves to control the corpse of Dr. Koizumi and made him kill Ueno’s team members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, he controls Dr. Koizumi, posing as a world-class underground expert to sabotage the dragon veins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bang!” The door burst open—President Hanabira, who had been simmering with rage, barely holding himself together, stormed in with his secretary and over a dozen security guards, ready to teach Qi Ming a lesson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at the sight before them, everyone turned pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You… you killed Dr. Koizumi!” screamed President Hanabira’s secretary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emi quickly defended: “No, we didn’t! Something controlled Dr. Koizumi and made him commit suicide!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no one believed her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>President Hanabira’s face turned ashen—he waved his hand, and the dozen guards surged forward, pinning Qi Ming to the ground to await judgment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is this also part of Bokkun’s plan?” Qi Ming’s eyes flickered as the guards charged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the original “Jack” series, Bokkun used the same trick to frame Ueno’s team member for the murder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He created the illusion that Ueno killed Dr. Koizumi, leading to Ueno’s imprisonment and nearly causing MAT to be disbanded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now it was Qi Ming’s turn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wouldn’t sit quietly in a prison cell like Ueno—he’d smash his way through!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1122,"2026-06-19T16:40:33.318Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","5235464de575e4d6703d27ab5da34aba0c8fbd9b865a21b805de21241fd1fde5","ultraman-arbitrary-key-dawn-chapter-84","ultraman-arbitrary-key-dawn-chapter-82",547,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fultraman-arbitrary-key-dawn-cover.jpg"]
