Ultraman Time Repairman

"Captain, there's someone here who claims to be a Balgi alien."

Inside the Mac headquarters, female team member Haruko Momoi suddenly spoke to the team leader, who was sitting in a chair looking at documents.

"What? Which guy is so bored?"

Upon hearing this, Moroboshi Dan put down the documents on the table with some surprise, walked over, and took the phone from her hand.

"Hello, Balgi alien, what do you want to do by calling?"

Chishu was puzzled when she heard a man's voice on the phone.

The boss next to her also overheard Qian Shu's conversation on the phone, and his expression changed, it was hard to tell whether he was afraid or suspicious.

An alien came to my shop looking for a job?

"Who are you? Let that little girl talk to me."

"What? I'm Dan Moroboshi, captain of Team Mac! Watch your language!"

Hearing the flippant words from the other side, Dan Moroboshi was somewhat annoyed, becoming even more convinced that the other person was joking.

The MAC team's phone number is public, because very few people would call them for no reason. Furthermore, they're not an ordinary organization; those who join the MAC team are not ordinary people. Even the young woman mentioned earlier, the female team member who answered the phone, is a top-notch communications expert in China.

As a soldier who is always on the front lines, he was somewhat angry about the other party's disrespect.

"Boring guy, stop wasting public resources! Beep beep beep..."

"Hey! I haven't finished speaking yet!"

Seeing that Moroboshi Dan had hung up the phone, Chiki regretted her earlier careless remark.

But this old Deng has quite a temper...

However, the middle-aged man in front of me seemed to have quite a temper.

"You wretched brat! How dare you come to my shop and joke around!"

As a result, not only did the Mac team not believe him, but he was also kicked out of the restaurant by the owner.

"Ok."

Chishu sighed.

Today has been a really unlucky day.

He rubbed his stomach, which was feeling a bit hungry, and looked up at the sky.

The sun is quite close to the horizon; it should be lunchtime by now.

He planned to visit the old woman.

As dusk approached, the pale yellow light shone on the neatly arranged baskets of flowers outside the small flower shop, making the place feel incredibly warm and inviting.

However, through the half-open door, one could see a hunched figure bustling about inside, appearing somewhat lonely at that moment.

"Hey, Grandma!"

Qian Shu called out from outside the door.

"what."

The old woman inside the door answered, put down the flowers in her hand, and ran over to open the door with a smile.

"Oh, Kenta's back. Come in, Grandma has prepared dinner."

"Then I would be disrespectful."

Qian Shu was led into the shop by the old woman. There was a small garden behind the shop, with many flowers and plants that he did not recognize. Finally, they entered a room.

The items inside are arranged in a style that clearly reflects home decor.

Seeing that it was a tatami room, Chiki politely took off her shoes.

Luckily, I don't have sweaty or smelly feet.

A small table was placed in the center of the room, and on the table was a black iron pot.

The old woman plugged the slightly damaged plug of the appliance into the socket, and then beckoned Qian Shu to sit down beside her.

"Hey, why are you still standing? Come sit down."

Chishu agreed, and seeing that there was nothing she could do to help, she simply sat down.

"Are you hungry? There are some sausages on the plate on the table. You can eat them with the soy sauce over there first."

The old woman smiled and, seeing that the pot was hot enough, she spread a piece of butter on it. The high temperature melted the butter, making a sizzling sound.

Then, she took some slices of meat from a bowl containing ingredients and laid the thin, almost transparent slices of meat flat on the surface.

Next comes white sugar, soy sauce, and various sauces, as well as some sliced ​​onions.

As for the side dishes, tofu, konjac noodles, shiitake mushrooms, and enoki mushrooms were all arranged appropriately.

"Would you like some water?"

The old woman looked at him with a smile.

"It's all right."

As the temperature of the pot rose, the aroma gradually wafted into her nose, and Chishu, who was already starving, began to salivate wildly.

"Hehe, my mother-in-law likes to add a little water. Please wait three minutes."

After saying that, the old woman put the lid on the pot, but her hands were not idle; she stirred the raw eggs in a bowl next to her.

Just as the ninth and a half of the egg mixture was poured, half of it was poured into the small bowl in front of Chishu.

"The hot pot should be ready by now."

Lifting the pot lid, the sealed aroma burst forth all at once. Looking at the pot of food in front of her, the old woman was filled with emotion.

"It's been so long since I've had sukiyaki with anyone. I usually just grab something to eat for dinner by myself."

"Mmm, it's delicious."

Qian Shu chewed on a sausage dipped in sauce and used her chopsticks to pick up a handful of enoki mushrooms from the hot pot.

"By the way, Grandma, has Kuroshio Island always been this safe? Haven't any monsters appeared there before?"

"Ah, you mean monsters? I've only heard about them on the radio, I've never seen one before. They must be beasts tens of meters tall, but the Mac team and the red giant are protecting us. What's wrong, Jianyi? Have you ever seen a monster?"

Upon hearing about the monster, the old woman looked at him with some interest.

"Yes, that's a terrible beast. By the way, Grandma, have you thought about moving? I mean, the monster will be coming here soon, you'd better move in advance."

"My suggestion is that you shouldn't just eat vegetables. Do you like enoki mushrooms?"

"Grandma, you haven't answered my question yet. The monster really will come, and this place will be submerged."

Qian Shu put down her chopsticks and said seriously.

"No, don't worry too much. If the monster really comes, the Mac team will protect us. Besides, if I leave, Jianyi won't be able to find me."

The old woman shook her head, not wanting to discuss the topic any further, and picked up a piece of softer food to chew slowly.

"Grandma knows you're a kind child. If you don't have anywhere to go for the time being, stay here and keep me company. There's a room there that Jianyi used to live in. Let me tidy up and I'll stay there tonight."

"Thank you, Grandma."

Qian Shu glanced at her intently.

"Don't waste this food. My teeth aren't good, so I can't eat much."

"Ah."

…………

After declining the old woman's help, Qian Shu quickly tidied up the room.

There wasn't much dust to begin with, perhaps because the old lady used to clean it up frequently.

Then he lay quietly on the bed, thinking about what to do next.

He's going to keep harassing us with phone calls tomorrow, so I need to figure out a way to make Dan Moroboshi believe me.

And what about the old lady? How can we get her to move out?

The submersion of Kuroshio Island is something neither Leo nor Seven can prevent...

Thinking of this, he took out the crystal spark and the Balgi alien doll that he had brought from the Milky Way space-time.

Can he change the fate of Kuroshio Island?

Adding his words...

Forget it, that Balgi alien is a half-baked expert; he doesn't even know if he can grow to gigantic size.

It would be more reliable to find a way to get all these people to move out.

At least save the old lady...

He turned his head and saw a photo frame sitting quietly on the bedside table.

Below the mirror in the picture frame was a somewhat faded photograph. The man in the photo was around thirty years old and handsome; he must be Jianyi, the one Grandma had mentioned.

However, the clothes that person was wearing caught Chishu's attention.

Orange team uniforms.

Mac team, huh...?
