Tokyo, Bunkyo-ku, Jonan University Archeology Laboratory

The morning sunlight shone in through the window, and the chirping of birds could be heard vaguely outside. Miss Sakurako, who was sleeping on the computer desk, frowned slightly, and then opened her eyes.

What catches the eye is the analysis of Linduo text displayed on the computer screen.

"Why did you transform, Godai..." Miss Sakurako murmured when she saw the fax given to her by Godai on the side, with the word "power" written in the Linta script on it.

At this time, the door of the archaeological laboratory was pushed open by a handsome foreigner. He was one of the members of the archaeological laboratory, a Romanian graduate student studying at Chengnan University, Jan Midusuli Sorel.

Seeing the other party come in, Miss Yingzi smiled and said hello: "Good morning, Zhan."

Zhan smiled heartily and said: "Good morning, Miss Yingzi. You came so early."

"Haha, it's better to say that it was already morning when I realized it." Miss Yingzi stretched her body and smiled helplessly.

Zhan turned on his computer and said, "You work very hard."

"No. I have no motivation and no clue at all. It would be great if I didn't have to analyze it..."

When she thought of the Fifth Generation transforming into Kuuga to fight against unidentified life forms, Ms. Sakurako felt a sense of resistance to analyzing the Linta text.

"However, things have become very serious."

"Eh?"

"Don't you know?" With that said, Zhan took out a newspaper and handed it to Miss Yingzi.

"An unconfirmed life form appears in Tokyo, and the police publicly announced the existence of the life form... No way."

Ms. Sakurako looked at the photos of unconfirmed life forms No. 4, Kuuga and No. 5 in the newspaper, and her eyes widened in disbelief.

…

Tokyo, Bunkyo-ku, Pole Pole coffee shop, 09:28 a.m.

[Reporting to you again, the H system of the Yamanashi Prefectural Police captured a mysterious figure, Unconfirmed Life Form No. 5, appearing near Myoga Valley Station...]

Reports about the unconfirmed life form were broadcast on TV. After a joint meeting of all prefectures, the police have decided to disclose the existence of the unconfirmed life form.

"Since last night, these things have been broadcast on TV. Two of the three actually escaped. What are the police doing? No, no, I keep hearing such ominous reports recently..." Tamasaburo

Dad was making coffee in the kitchen and complaining to Kaoru Ichijo who was sitting in front of him.

Hearing this, Kaoru Ichijo could only show an awkward and impolite smile, and then he turned his head and glanced at Long Tianyu, who was sitting next to him and reading the newspaper. After returning last night, Godai Yusuke went to Long Tianyu and told him

Tomorrow he had to accompany himself to Kanto Medical University Hospital for a physical examination, so Long Tianyu asked his father for a half-day leave.

Sensing Ichijo Kaoru's gaze, Long Tianyu smiled and took a sip of coffee, then chuckled and said, "How is it? Dad's coffee is delicious. It's simply the best."

"Hahaha, Tianyu can still talk." Dad smiled, then picked up the remote control and switched to the idol program.

Kaoru Ichijo nodded. He looked at the newspaper in Long Tianyu's hand, his expression solemn as he recalled the bill drafted during the previous meeting.

[Special Measures Law for Unconfirmed Countermeasures against Attacks by Unconfirmed Life Forms, etc., referred to as the Special Measures Law for Unconfirmed Countermeasures (OM Law)]

[Article 1: This law originated from an attack from an unidentified life form that occurred in Japan on January 30, 1999. It was determined that the incident threatened the peace and security of our country. In view of the need to take appropriate measures to extinguish and prevent it.

The existence of indiscriminate killing of unidentified living beings is now regulated by law, and in order to actively and proactively eliminate its existence, the following matters are hereby enacted to achieve the purpose of ensuring peace and security of our country.】

[1. Unconfirmed definition of life form

(1) The unconfirmed life form is the life form that appeared at the Mt. Terazawa Mt. Kurō ruins in Kamita-mura, Kamiina-gun, Nagano Prefecture on January 29, 2011. The Metropolitan Police Department named them in the order in which they were discovered.

It is Unconfirmed Life Form No.

Group No. X.

(2) It is not confirmed that living beings are different from us humans. When they commit killing or other acts classified as crimes, regardless of their form, the same measures must be taken as if they are dealing with ferocious beasts.】

(omitted)

[9. Use of weapons

(1) When the police are performing their duties, if they face a threat to life or body and believe that there are sufficient reasons to defend themselves, they can use necessary weapons within the scope of what is judged to be reasonable and necessary.

(2) The use of weapons against unconfirmed living beings must be arranged based on on-site judgment. In this case, it is necessary to prevent the use of weapons that may cause life or physical threats or chaos, and to ensure that weapons are used appropriately.】

9(2) The content of this law allows the police to use new types of weapons and other response measures based on the situation on the spot. Even if the object identified as an unidentified life form takes on a human form, the police can still shoot at it.

In other words, once the identities of Godai Yusuke and Long Tianyu are exposed, in theory, it is legal even if they are shot on the spot.

Throwing the newspaper casually on the table in front of him, Long Tianyu gave a thumbs up to Kaori Ichijo and said with a smile: "Mr. Ichijo, it will be fine. Simailu, Simailu."

Seeing the familiar like action, Ichijo Kaoru's smiling face of Godai Yusuke appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but chuckle.

'If it's Godai and him, everything will be fine...'

"By the way, that guy hasn't come yet. Is Yusuke your friend from college?" Tamasaburo asked with a smile while making coffee.

"no."

"Ah, is that an adventure partner? Oh, I have done many life-threatening adventures before. I have climbed to the top of many famous mountains, such as Mount Zhumurangma and so on."

After refilling a cup of coffee for Ichijo Sang and Long Tianyu, the old man, who had already started chatting, kept telling stories about his adventures like a barrage of words.

"Oh, it's really not easy to climb Mount Murangma. When I climbed the mountain, it was still called Everest. Young people probably don't know much about it. Do you know?" Father Tamasaburo laughed.

He smiled, then pointed to the photo of Mount Everest hanging on the wall, and continued, "In the past, there were people who pronounced Everest as Ephesus. Do you know?"

"Um... I don't know." Ichijo Kaoru replied in confusion, and then looked at Long Tianyu as if asking for help. He really couldn't stand his talkative father.

"Ahem... Speaking of dad, this photo is really good. Did you take it?"

"Well, I didn't take this photo. It was taken by Yusuke's father, who is a battlefield photographer..."

Just as the father's expression became nostalgic and he was about to tell the story of Yusuke's father to the two of them, Yusuke Godai happened to finish buying the ingredients and came to the store.

"Then let's go first. The coffee is delicious." Saying goodbye to Tamasaburo's father, Ichijo Kaoru led the two of them out of the coffee shop.

"By the way, Ichijo-san doesn't have to come to pick me up, right?"

"It's not like you always refuse to go, so I plan to take you to Chun's place to have a look. Mr. Long will also go together."

"Just call me Tianyu."

Kaoru Ichijo smiled and nodded. Regarding Long Tianyu, Kaoru Ichijo's senses were quite good, at least much more stable than Yusuke Godai's impression.

"Ah... By the way, remember to tactfully remind the store manager that the correct pronunciation is Mount Everest."

"Eh?"
