Ultraman Time Repairman

Bang bang bang.

A knocking sound came from outside the glass door.

"Who is it? It's so late."

Masashi Ōmura yawned and walked helplessly toward the door, where he saw Kotori and Kaori.

"Um?"

Da Cun looked at the brother and sister with a puzzled expression. Under the lamplight, there were still tear stains on their cheeks. Xiao Tong held his sister's hand tightly, his whole body trembling as if he was having difficulty breathing, and gurgling sounds came from his throat.

"what happened?"

He quickly opened the door and helped the two inside. Omura immediately sensed something was wrong and called out in the direction Hōgen and Chiki had just left, "Quick, Hōgen! Something seems to have happened!"

"what happened?"

Fengyuan, who was training with Chishu not far away, quickly pushed open the door and came over. Chishu, who didn't know what was going on, also came over.

"what happened?"

Fengyuan placed her hand on Xiaotong's shoulder, patted him reassuringly, then circled around him before pushing open the glass door to look for the other people.

"Where's your father?"

Mentioning his father, Xiaotong trembled even more violently as if suddenly stimulated. Qianshu looked down at him, puzzled, and saw his face covered in tears, his eyes filled with despair and immense sorrow.

"Something happened?"

A bad feeling suddenly crept into Feng Yuan's mind.

"Brother Fengyuan, Daddy... he was killed by aliens! Waaaaah..."

Xiaotong's words came to an abrupt halt, and Umeda Kaori covered her face and burst into tears.

"What!"

"This guy killed my dad!"

Xiao Tong suddenly threw the blue crystal he had been clutching tightly to the ground and stomped on it a few times in anger.

"This is……"

Chishu gently patted his back, then looked down at the spot where he was standing. After Xiaotong moved his foot away, he could see the object clearly. It was a piece of cosmic metal that looked like crystal and was carved with the head of a Balgi alien.

what happened?

"That damn Balgi alien! I'll kill him sooner or later!"

Xiao Tong screamed hysterically, and after his emotional outburst, he began to sob quietly.

"Someone must have framed us..."

Feng Yuan picked up the piece of cosmic metal that looked like blue crystal and weighed it in his hand.

It is not made of materials from Earth.

"Alright, Fengyuan, you guys hurry up and contact the Mac team. Come on, kids, come with me first."

After leaving a message for Fengyuan, Masaji Omura's expression also turned grim. He pulled the two siblings aside and led them to a nearby room to rest.

Everything depends on the Mac team coming to investigate.

…………

"A series of murders has occurred in Tokyo!"

"According to our station, the police have launched an investigation into the Tokyo serial killings and have preliminarily determined it to be a case of deranged murder."

"After analyzing the items left behind by the killer, experts requested the police department to declare that these were not items from Earth, that the killer was an alien, and that the Balgi alien who had previously fought alongside the Red Giant became a suspect. They also stated that this incident was the responsibility of the Mac team."

"Supporters of the Balgi aliens protested, and the Mac team also tried their best to defend the murderer."

"Because the perpetrator usually chooses to commit the crime at night and in sparsely populated areas, witnesses are unable to provide any incriminating evidence. This station strongly urges citizens to be careful when walking at night..."

"Below are the accusations made by the victim's family against the perpetrator..."

Qian Shu put down the newspaper in his hand, his brows furrowed. He couldn't bear to read any more of the content; he hadn't expected so many people to be murdered in just one day.

How could I have become a criminal suspect without my knowledge?

The media is just trying to attract attention, and the experts are fools.

The identity of the murderer is still unknown.

Regarding why suspicion arose over a piece of metal with the image of a Balgi alien, the media suggested that the perverted aliens couldn't think about their motives from a human perspective.

Anyway, aliens are all demons, which fits the image they've always had in the minds of the citizens.

Ugh.

Qian Shu sighed.

He didn't care that he had become a scapegoat for no reason, but he felt sorry that Xiao Tong and his sister had become orphans.

The mother died because of the monster, and the father also died at the hands of the aliens.

It seems like people are dying all the time in this world. These are the tragedies that the media sees, but how many more go unreported?

Damn aliens!

"You saw what was in the newspaper too?"

Dan Moroboshi opened the door of the Maddie and got in, sitting next to Chiki.

"team leader."

The Suzuki team member sitting in the driver's seat turned his head and saw him.

"Ah."

Dan Moroboshi nodded to him.

"Let's go to the South City Club first. Feng Yuan should still be there at this time."

"Yes."

Due to the recent series of murders by aliens, the patrol duties of the Mike team have increased significantly. Chiki and Suzuki have been assigned to a team to be responsible for daytime patrols.

As for the night patrols, they are handled by several other groups and are conducted more frequently than during the day.

After all, the perpetrators currently appear at night, and the daytime patrols mainly serve to apprehend the citizens, while the nighttime patrols are responsible for the arrest mission.

"This matter is still under investigation. At present, the only way to prove the innocence of the Balgi aliens is to catch the murderer, besides the Balgi aliens coming forward to testify themselves."

Dan Moroboshi patted Chiki's hand, took the newspaper from his hand, and continued talking.

"Now that the media has turned its attention to the Balgi aliens, even if we come up with some strong inferences, we won't be able to make any waves."

"But Captain, why do you think there's someone else involved?"

Suzuki, in the driver's seat, turned the steering wheel and suddenly interrupted.

"Putting aside the evidence, that black giant was also our comrade back in Tokyo Bay. Mac has been fighting aliens for so long, and he's used this kind of framing tactic on Ultraman before."

Dan Moroboshi shook his head in reply, glancing at Chiki beside him. Chiki's expression was indifferent, showing no displeasure at being misunderstood.

In fact, he had this idea back when he served in the Ultra Guard. He always felt that his superiors' attitude towards aliens was too extreme, to the point of blind fear, and many innocent aliens were killed for no reason.

This distrust also extends to Ultraman. No matter how much Ultraman protects humanity, his superiors always maintain an attitude of exploitation and vigilance. This leads to foreign invaders often being able to incite conflict between humans and Ultraman using only crude methods.

There's no way around it; it's not just because there's a despicable side to human nature, but also because Ultraman is just too powerful.

The weak cannot protect the Earth, while the strong will be feared by humans, causing them to distance themselves from trust.

Ultraman has always been in this awkward position.

Only comrades who have fought side by side can trust Ultraman without any reason.

But Seven's era has passed.

The former Ultra Guard was disbanded due to a brief period of peace, and the members had all retired. After all, maintaining such a team required a lot of financial resources. It wasn't until the monsters reappeared that Team MAC was formed.

While Dan Moroboshi was still lost in thought, Suzuki had already found a parking space by the roadside.

He pressed the clutch and then lightly applied the brakes, shifted the gear to neutral, and turned the key to turn off the engine.

"Captain, we're here."

"Ah."

Bringing his thoughts back, Moroboshi Dan agreed, opened the car door, and led Chiki to the entrance of the South City Club.
