Ultraman: A good pilot doesn't choose his own Ultraman.

21. Daigo, you are both light and humanity.

"Mr. Jiang Yu, what about the Kirieloids? Have you wiped them out?"

As Daigo struck up a conversation, he walked around with his Victory Hyper gun, warily observing his surroundings as if Mitsuo Itabashi might suddenly appear at any moment.

The five armed men behind them were even more professional, each leaning against a wall and setting up their guns, ready to fire at any moment if there was any unusual movement.

Jiang Yu's lips twitched. High professional competence is a good thing, but it's unnecessary to exert so much effort on thin air; it just seems perverted.

"Daigo, the Kirieloids have left. Send your companions back."

It's so late, go to bed early, don't keep doing anything unnecessary.

"Huh? The Kirieloids have left, Mr. Jiang Yu, are you sure you're not mistaken?"

Daigo asked suspiciously, his face practically screaming disbelief.

Two days ago, during an internal screening at TPC, two Kirieloids with high-ranking positions were discovered; both were already at the staff officer level.

Among the hawks, those two were the ones who led the research on the giant statues.

If it hadn't been identified in time, who knows how much trouble it would have caused for future TPC decisions.

Because of this incident, Director Sawai became unusually stern and reprimanded all the personnel involved in conducting dangerous experiments in secret.

Police Chief Yoshioka, feeling embarrassed, personally led a team to investigate all those who might be involved.

Unfortunately, even if you find out about the Kirieloids, you can't actually catch them.

Humanity does not yet possess the means to intervene in the unknown realm of soul energy.

The good news is that, according to large-scale sample analysis, the Kirieloids cannot possess humans unconditionally; certain conditions must be met.

The conditions are still under investigation...

That's why Daigo is so sensitive. The Kirieloid people suddenly appearing at this time and approaching Jiang Yu must be to achieve some unspeakable purpose.

"It's alright, just let them go back first."

Jiang Yu pointed to the five people who remained silent and posing in place, indicating his presence.

Put yourself in their shoes. If you were already in bed at this moment, and then suddenly you were dragged out and told that you had to fight unknown aliens, you would definitely be very unhappy.

While it's a responsibility, it's definitely not a pleasant experience.

After explaining the situation to the five people, Daigo then took the PDI and spoke with Megumi Iriyama in the command room, explaining the situation on the ground.

The operation was only concluded after obtaining permission from Megumi Kijima.

"Mr. Jiang Yu, please get in the car. I also have some questions for you."

Daigo drove up to Jiang Yu in his bright yellow Sherlock car, rolled down the window, and leaned out to invite him.

The Sherlock car looked exceptionally bright in the dead of night, especially with the newly installed laser cannons on its body; it gave me a really damn safe feeling.

"You don't even need to tell me. I've wanted to ride in your car for a long time. It looks so impressive."

Jiang Yu casually tossed his backpack into the back seat, opened the car door, sat in the passenger seat, and fastened his seatbelt in one smooth motion.

To be honest, as long as Daigo doesn't fly the plane, I feel quite safe.

The car started slowly, and Daigo displayed his driving talent, driving the car steadily while asking Jiang Yu a question.

"Mr. Jiang Yu, how did you deal with that Kirieloid?"

I just looked around, and there don't seem to be any signs of a struggle at the scene.

Daigo, despite being a member of the Victory team who transferred from logistics, still possesses a solid grasp of knowledge in all aspects, far exceeding that of ordinary people.

The training included a special course on observing the scene, so Daigo was quite confident in his judgment.

"You're right, I didn't fight her, we just talked for a while."

Jiang Yu made no attempt to hide anything from Daigu.

As Tiga's human form, Daigo's only thought now is to protect humanity and help them overcome the crisis.

As long as you haven't done anything inhumane, just speak up openly.

Hiding things only increases suspicion and distrust between people.

Given Daigo's honest nature, he is the least tolerant of being deceived.

"Oh, speak?"

Daigo was very surprised. The only Kirieloid he had ever met was Mitsuo Itabashi, the kind of guy who talked about Kirieloid gods and ruling over humanity all the time. They were people he could communicate with normally.

"That's right, it's about conversation. I only learned today that the Kirieloids also have disagreements."

Jiang Yu stared at the streetlights, his eyes somewhat dazed. If he hadn't actually come here, even if he had watched TV to death, he would never have imagined it would turn out like this.

Then, Jiang Yu told Daigu everything he knew, so that Daigu could relay it to Iruma Megumi.

Jiang Yu didn't want to wake up one morning to find the captain of the Victory Team sitting in the living room again.

Not to mention the heavy responsibilities and countless duties of the captain of the GUTS team.

If too many people come, it might cause Zongfang to misunderstand.

The thought that a middle-aged man believed he was going to become his rival and was secretly observing him all day long was unbearable for Jiang Yu.

The captain is indeed very beautiful, but he's not interested in older women.

Besides, if you want to become a person of light, what kind of woman are you talking about?

Women will only slow down the speed at which he becomes light.

In short, by the time the Sherlock car entered Tokyo, Daigo had already heard Jiang Yu explain the whole story.

"Mr. Jiang Yu, you're not really going to join them, are you? What if they have some evil plan? These aliens just don't seem very trustworthy."

Daigo stopped at the intersection and said with concern.

"It's alright, what do I have to worry about? Even if they have ulterior motives, I won't be afraid."

This is a rare opportunity, and having multiple information channels is a good thing.

Besides, unlike you, I don't need such fancy transformations.

Jiang Yu looked at Daigu with a hint of teasing; losing the Spark Lens wasn't a one-off incident.

His Paragidite was different; it seemed as if that thing had become one with him.

Normally, it's just an outward appearance. As long as Jiang Yu's thoughts change, the Paragi Stone will disappear. There's no way he'd be in the same predicament as Daigo, where his Spark Lens was stolen and he couldn't transform.

"Um, Mr. Jiang Yu, I won't lose it."

Daigo said awkwardly that Nori had only picked him up once before.

"Also, Mr. Jiang Yu, I'd like to ask you a question."

"Go ahead and ask."

"Can't humans and monsters really coexist?"

"..."

Jiang Yu stared at Da Gu, who was earnestly seeking advice, feeling somewhat helpless.

Daigo was probably influenced by the sentimental Rena when he asked this question.

Jiang Yu could figure it out with his own eyes; it was just another matter of agonizing over right and wrong.

What do you mean if humans don't excavate Jiuliang Island, then Gakuma won't cause casualties to humans?

If humans didn't use electromagnetic waves, the Lightning Man wouldn't have created the monster Gazort, which caused considerable casualties.

"Daigo, the moment you start thinking about whether these things are right or wrong, you're already destined to be confused."

You should know that you are not only light, but also human, and you are much better than an irresponsible guy like me.

I only think about protecting myself, but you take the initiative to protect everyone.

The pace of human development will never stop; it will either lead to extinction or progress.

There aren't that many "what ifs" in the world. What if TPC had chosen to compromise on all these issues?

Will humanity make more concessions if more monsters appear?

In the long run, what purpose will TPC serve? It will only ever make concessions anyway.
