I'm really just human

"More than a month has passed since the first Gurungi killing incident. Today, the relatives of the victims will hold a three-day prayer event in the central square to commemorate their loved ones..."

central square.

A lot of people gathered before it was dark. There were chrysanthemums in front of a photo wall. From time to time, sobbing could be heard, but order was still maintained at the scene. The victims' families seemed to have a tacit understanding, no matter how sad they were, Or leave the position to the latecomers.

Hiroko Asami and her partner Kazumi Takahashi stood on the edge of the square, looking at the crowds of people walking back and forth in the depressing atmosphere, and they felt heavy.

"In just one month, more than 100 people were killed. This is the result of Kurangi being solved in time every time. Otherwise..."

As if infected by the atmosphere, Asami Hiroko's eyes were moist and she sniffed slightly.

Unlike the numbers in the report, the tragedy of the incident can only be felt at the scene.

Every life represents a family.

"Really," Takahashi Kazumi complained, "The higher-ups don't think about how to deal with the Gurungi to reduce casualties, and they are still urging us to track down Kuuga. I wanted to beat them up in the meeting yesterday, but they actually said that seniors are useless. …”

"Okay, I'm the one being blamed. Why are you angry?" Asami Hiroko exhaled speechlessly.

During the Ultraman period, she was asked to investigate Ultraman, and now she is also investigating Kuuga.

I've long been used to it.

"Of course you have to be angry. Senior and I are of the same mind and body!"

Takahashi Kazumi showed all her unhappiness on her face.

"Actually, it's very strange to me. I always feel like Konga knows what we're doing. There's no clue every time. Maybe there's an insider inside those guys..."

"Have you watched too much TV?"

Asami Hiroko glanced at her partner.

"It's not a police movie, so where did the insider come from?"

"That's how I feel." Takahashi Kazumi whispered.

Asami Hiroko ignored her partner, but looked at the commemorative crowd in surprise, and unexpectedly spotted Natsukawa's figure in front of the photo wall.

"Kamiyaga?"

"Ugh."

Xia Chuan put down the chrysanthemum amidst the low cries around him. His eyes paused for a moment on the photo of mother and daughter, and his memory briefly returned to the day of the Mantis incident.

A qualified warrior needs to be baptized in blood.

Whether it was the fusion of Kaminaga Shinji's memories or the extremely brutal killing game played by the super-ancient Gurungi, he became different from ordinary people and had a particularly firm heart as a warrior.

But this doesn't mean that he doesn't take human life as seriously as Gurungi or Zoffi.

Even if he continues to evolve in the future, and even becomes an advanced life form like Zuo Fei, he will still not give up his identity as a human being, and he will still not forget the sadness and tears at the scene.

After carving the smiling face of the girl in the photo into his eyes, Xia Chuan silently stepped aside.

He is still encountering a lot of problems when it comes to dealing with Gurungi.

First of all, there is no ability to capture the traces of Gurungi. Basically, it is a matter of luck every time. Several times, I was almost blocked by the barrier.

The Kamen Rider seems to have a special device for crossing the barrier, so I'd better get one if I have the chance.

The other thing is rushing.

Without the knight motorcycle, he had to run through the blue dragon form every time. Although the level of stealth was higher than that of the motorcycle, he always felt that it was not the case.

There is nothing we can do about this for the time being, unless we can obtain an ability similar to Mirror Space.

There are mirrors everywhere in the city. If you have the special ability to travel through mirror space, you can go anywhere easily.

"The latest news," the square's morning broadcast suddenly came, "the mysterious Gurungi appears in the Ota District Central Tower..."

"Bang bang bang!"

Ota District.

Because of the "crime notice", the police evacuated the crowd in advance and sealed off the central tower area. A large number of police cars gathered, and the police officers stood ready, and gunfire rang out.

After just one round of shooting, not only was there no trace of Gurungi, but several policemen were injured and killed in succession.

He couldn't even clearly see the opponent's attack. The police officer who was still shooting was suddenly pulled into the air, as if his face was sucked by something. When he fell, his head was fractured and his face was red.

"hateful!"

"Where? Get out!"

The veteran detective at the scene hid behind the police car and observed the surroundings. Faced with the unknown and unknown enemy, sweat dripped from his forehead.

"Haha," the outline of Chameleon Gurungi emerged above the tower, "The next time will be tomorrow at 10 a.m., and the location will be in the Central Square."

"What?"

The police followed the source of the sound and fired another burst of shots, but the chameleon Gurungi seemed to leave the scene after finishing speaking, and never made any movement again.

"Hoo ho!"

The old detective gasped and walked out of the police car bunker.

"I really left a notice, and it was still in Japanese. What happened to that guy?"

"It was the same with Mantis Gurungi last time. Many passers-by heard 'Don't look back'. These guys are learning from us humans."

"Are you studying? But it's getting more and more difficult to understand. Last time Mantis Gurungi killed people specifically, and this time there was a warning to kill people. What on earth are these guys thinking?"

"Let's leave it to the Kamen Riders and the special forces next." The old detective put away his pistol and turned his attention to the police officers who died on the scene.

Many police officers looked dejected, confused and sad.

Since the advent of the Age of Chivalry, the role of the police has also changed.

"What are you doing standing around stupidly?" the old detective yelled, "Cheer up, even if we can't deal with Gurungi, we still have things we can do! We can't give up easily!"

"Officer Kudo..."

"Okay, let's clean up the scene first."

The old detective bent down and picked up the bullet that fell from the ground.

The higher the Gurungi level, the less effective ordinary bullets are. Unfortunately, the higher-ups don't seem to have thought about equipping the police with enhanced equipment, and have defaulted to the fact that special forces are the main combatants.

But with so few special forces personnel, the police are ultimately responsible for city security.

…

evening.

Xia Chuan made a rare trip back to Leo's house.

The boss handed over a cup of hot milk as usual and asked curiously: "Why do you have time to come here today?"

"The school has sent all the students to the front line. I have nothing to do for the time being. I will come back and stay for two days." Xia Chuan responded casually.

In fact, the base is too remote, and it takes a lot of time to go back and forth every time, making it inconvenient for him to hunt Gurungi.

It just so happened that I heard that Gurungi had predicted a murder today. The location was the central square where a commemorative event was being held. Of course, it would be more appropriate to stay in the city.

"Ding dong!"

The bell at the door rang, and an old detective wearing a coat pushed open the door and found a corner to sit down with a sullen face.

"Boss, a glass of sake."

"Officer Kudo seems to have something on his mind. Is it because of the Grunge who foretells murder?"

The boss asked familiarly.

"Since the appearance of Gulungi, the effect of the barrier seems to be getting smaller and smaller. Will it not be useful this time?"

"There is no way, the barrier is just to deal with infected bodies."

The old detective said tiredly.

"Instead of putting your hope on the barrier, it would be better to find a way to find those guys' lair. If this continues, you may not be able to notice that Gurungi is around in the future."

"Oh?" The boss became interested, "How do you say this?"

"I can't tell you too much," the old detective sighed, "I can only say that those guys are getting better and better at pretending now."

Xia Chuan glanced at the old detective after hearing this, and was about to say something when some blurry images flashed through his mind along with bursts of howling sounds. At the same time, his waist also felt slightly warm, and the empty belt seemed to appear on its own.

Is there Gurungi nearby?

Natsukawa pressed down his belt and hurriedly walked out of the izakaya after speaking to the boss.

"Buzz!"

Ota District.

Fujiwara Saiji was driving a motorcycle along the river, and was worrying about how to find traces of Gurungi, when suddenly a motorcycle sped past beside him.

It's obviously an ordinary model, but it's incredibly fast.

"snort."

The knight glanced back at Fujiwara Saiji, his eyes under the helmet were bloodthirsty and excited.

"It will be a dark game soon, and you will be my first prey."

"What?"

Fujiwara Saiji was suddenly startled and felt a chill in his heart. When he realized what he was doing, the motorcycle in front of him had disappeared into the darkness.

"The prey...could that guy be Gurungi?"
