Do you like humans that much, Chihaya Aine?

　"Could it be that the Metronians are doing something bad again?"

　Aine couldn't help but think so, but it didn't seem like that guy did it, which made her puzzled.

　"It's enough to have a general understanding. If we continue investigating, there might be danger."

　Sanjiao Chuhua keenly felt that this situation was not simple, and it might involve some shady exchange of interests or political games.

　Since it has been a year since she debuted as an idol, Sanjiao Chuhua has some understanding of the dark side of society. Some things are best not to be touched in a lifetime.

　"Yeah~ Chuhua, you're right, let's go back."

　Chihaya Aine felt that it was time to stop. She suddenly realized something. No wonder Mephilas was not interested in this matter.

　From the perspective of aliens, this is the stupid behavior of Earthlings. Now it seems that it is really stupid. Aine is not sure what to say.

　She turned back halfway and did not investigate more inside information about the "Monster Friends Club". Chihaya Aine believed that human affairs should be left to humans themselves to resolve.

　Although she herself is also a human, for Aine, who is a human, this matter is beyond her ability.

　There is no Earth Defense Force that specializes in dealing with aliens and monsters, which has powerful law enforcement powers to send anyone who does such a stupid thing to jail for life.

　Ultraman is not a god and cannot save everyone. Chihaya Aine is not a saint either. She can only protect herself and those around her.

　This alone is enough. The world never needs one person to save it. This is the responsibility and obligation of everyone.

　Volume 1: 65. Chu Hua, the Planner

　After leaving the gathering point of the "Monster Friends Club", Chihaya Aine did not say goodbye to Sankaku Hatsuka. It was such a rare coincidence that she met her favorite idol, so of course she wanted to invite him to sit down and have a good chat.

　They found a coffee shop nearby, and Aiyin and Chuhua found a quiet place to sit down, looking like good friends who went shopping.

　"Chuhua, how did you and Xiaoxiang meet?"

　Aine knew all the members of the CRYCHIC band. They must have met when Toyokawa Shoko formed the band, but Aine really didn't know when Sankaku Hatsuka and Toyokawa Shoko met.

　How could Aine, a master of intelligence, miss such important information? Don't underestimate Aine's intelligence network.

　"Xiaoxiang and I met when we were little. She came to the island where I live for vacation. We became friends and had a very pleasant vacation together."

　"Wow! That's a childhood thing, isn't that childhood sweethearts?!"

　"It hasn't come to that yet."

　Sanjiao Chuhua was a little shy, but Aine was really nice to talk to, and she would love to hear her talk more.

　“But at first

　Hua, you and Xiaoxiang have known each other for so long, why didn't she invite you when she formed a band? "

　Chu Hua had just praised Aiyin for her nice words, but she stabbed him in the heart the next moment. He showed an awkward smile.

　"At that time, I had just arrived in Tokyo to debut as an idol, and had only recently transferred to Hanasakigawa. Xiaoxiang might not have invited me for this reason."

　"Indeed, if we want to form a campus band, inviting Chuhua would be a waste of your talent."

　CRYCHIC is just a campus band after all. They have never held a proper live performance. At best, they are just Miss Toyokawa's plaything~haha.

　"Speaking of which, how did you invite Xiaoxiang to join your band?"

　Sanjiao Chuhua was very curious about this matter. She also knew that CRYCHIC had disbanded, but she never expected that the girl in front of her named Chihaya Aine would actually invite Xiaoxiang to be a keyboardist in her band.

　"I heard Xiaoxiang playing the piano at school and thought she was a great speaker, so I invited her."

　"And Xiaoxiang agreed?"

　"No, I was severely rejected."

　Talking about their first meeting, Aine was still a little embarrassed. It seemed that she was a little too social at that time.

　"But then I invited her a second time, and after I made it clear that it was a professional idol band signed by the agency, Xiaoxiang said she was willing to consider it."

　"A lot of things happened after that, and it was really not easy to get Xiaoxiang to join my band."

　"It does sound very difficult."

　Sanjiao Chuhua expressed her sincere envy, saying that she also wanted to form a band with Xiaoxiang, and it would be great if she could form a band with Xiaoxiang for life.

　"Oh right! I forgot to ask for your contact information last time at KTV, Chuhua. Let's exchange and add each other."

　"it is good."

　Sankaku Hatsuka nodded in agreement. Of course she agreed to get more information about Xiaoxiang from Chihaya Aine.

　Just like that, Aiyin and Chuhua added each other as friends. Both of them won, a win-win situation.

　"I don't know when our band's commercial collaboration with Sumimi will begin. It's all my bad luck."

　Speaking of this, Aine couldn't help but lament. She transformed into Ultraman and fell in the battle with the volcano bird Barton. She was hospitalized in the ICU for several days. Even if Aine recovered and was discharged from the hospital, she could not resume the band's activities immediately.

　Because the lead singer was ill, everyone in the M78 band stopped activities with her, and Aine always felt very sorry for everyone.

　Although Mefilas, the president of the agency, said that there was no problem at all and he did not open the agency to make money from Earthlings, it was indeed Aine's fault that caused the band to stop. I just hope that the same thing will not happen again.

　"It's okay. Xiaoxiang is a very gentle person. She won't blame you for this."

　"Yes...really?"

　It is really hard for Chihaya Aine to connect the word "gentle" with Toyokawa Shoko. I'm afraid that Sankaku Hatsuka is not referring to the Toyokawa Shoko in a parallel universe.

　"Anyway, I hope you can get along well with Xiaoxiang. If you encounter any troubles, please send me a message."

　"Ok, no problem!"

　Hearing Aine's answer, Chuhua smiled with a plan in mind. This way, he could keep a closer eye on Xiaoxiang's movements.

　After the conversation ended, Chihaya Aine said goodbye to Sankaku Hatsuka and left, but what should she do next... Well, it turns out she still cares about her.

　In the RING store, Shiina Riki looked like she had seen a ghost, and she really had seen a ghost.

　"Chihaya Aine, what the hell are you wearing?"

　"I went to the 'Monster Friends Club' to gather intelligence. This is what I'm wearing as a disguise."

　"Hiss... That's good. I thought something was wrong with you! Wait?"

　Only then did Li Xi realize that Chihaya Aine seemed to have done something dangerous.

　"Wasn't the lesson from last time enough? You're doing something stupid again!"

　"Sorry, sorry~ But I'm fine, and I found some important information."

　"Tsk... Tell me, what did you find out?"

　What else could Shiina Riki say at this point? All he could do was listen and watch.

　"The founder of the 'Strange Friends' Association' was the same guy who assisted the Metrons in kidnapping humans and was arrested by the police. He established this organization."

　"It's so troublesome. I don't understand. Tell me the conclusion."

　"It's a bad organization founded by bad people. We must never let Deng get in touch with it."

　"I've known about this for a long time. The key is that the lights may not heed our warnings."

　"Well... I'll think of a solution then."

　What Li Xi said is indeed true. Deng is particularly obsessed with monsters for some reason. In her current state, she could easily be sold out without even knowing it. It's worrying.

　In this case, Aine had a reason to take action, and soon another person appeared in RING's store.

　"Hello~ Hello, members of the M78 band, I am your

　's agent."

　"It's just Li Xi and I here, so you don't have to introduce yourself like this."

　"Why did you call this strange woman over here?"

　The strange woman who calls herself "Meimei" is the manager of the M78 band and a good friend of Nagasaki Motoyo. This girl with a lot of DEBUFFs stacked on her has a favorability level in Lixi's eyes that is not 0, but at least not very high.

　"I have something I want to discuss with my agent."

　Aine pretended not to tell the truth, and then there was a conversation between Ultraman's human body and the alien, and there was no way for Riki to participate.

　The man named Taro Kobayashi was once an assistant to the Metron aliens. It is more accurate and saves time and effort to obtain intelligence information from the aliens themselves.

　Volume 1: 66. Suspected of being an Earthling because he looks so much like a human

　Chihaya Aine and Metron left the RING store. Shiina Riki looked at their backs and felt a little strange. What were these two guys doing, so mysterious?

　In a blink of an eye, Aine and Metron went to a nearby cafe and tried to find a seat with no one around to avoid their conversation being overheard by others.

　Afterwards, Chihaya Aine talked to Metron about the "Monster Friends Club", hoping to get some information from her about the man named Kobayashi Taro.

　"Oh! It's Kobayashi-kun. So he's already out of prison. That's great."

　"That's not good at all."

　If this inherently evil person from Metron Star hadn't been looking like she had reformed, Aine would have already killed Metron with a flash of her eight-point light wheel.

　"Kobayashi-kun is a very kind person. He funded my invasion of Earth for free. He's a rare Earthling."

　“It’s rare, right?”

　Aine muttered and complained that these things were not the main point. What she cared about was whether Kobayashi Taro would meet other aliens again and turn around to do things for them, so Chihaya Aine said it directly.

　"Metron, I have a favor to ask of you. Could you please contact Kobayashi Taro under your alien identity and find out more about the "Monster Friends Club" he founded after his release from prison?"

　Chihaya Aine has not forgotten the reminders from Mikado Hatsuka and Shiina Riki. It is indeed too dangerous for her to continue investigating this matter as an Earthling, so she has to think from a different perspective at this time.

　Since it is inconvenient for earthlings to move, then there should be no problem for aliens. Ultraman cannot interfere with human activities, so he has to ask other aliens for help.

　Mephilas has no interest in this, so the only alien that Chihaya Ai knows is the Metron, and she just happened to be an alien who met Kobayashi Taro after she came to Earth.

　"I see. You want me to help you question Kobayashi-kun."

　Metron understood what Chihaya Aine meant, and had to say that this was indeed a good idea, but what was the price?

　"Why should I help you, Chihaya Aine?"

　"Ah...this..."

　Aine was stunned for a moment. Really? Why would Metron help her? She almost killed him when she transformed into Ultraman.

　"Even if President Mefilas commissioned me to do something, he still has to pay me a salary."

　"You're not expecting me to do things for you for free, are you? Hey Earthlings, getting something for free is not a good habit."

　"Then what do you want?"

　Aiyin asked, as long as the conditions were not too excessive, she would agree to the Metron alien, provided that the other party was willing to behave like a human being.

　"It's very simple. Su Shi just joined Tsuburaya Agency as a trainee. I want you to take Su Shi with you to participate in band activities."

　"what?"

　It's been ages since I've opened my mouth and breathed out my little fangs. Did Chihaya Aine hear something? Nagasaki Motoyo joined Tsuburaya Agency? No way, is this a joke?

　"Isn't that strange? It seems like Su Shi is obsessed with Toyokawa Shoko. She won't give up easily."

　"No, what's the point of telling me this? I'm not a member of CRYCHIC."

　"It's only useful if I tell you. President Mefilas doesn't really care about the agency's affairs. It's up to you to arrange the activities for idol artists and bands."

　In essence, Mefilas established Tsuburaya Office to provide a cover for Chihaya Aine's transformation into Ultraman to fight monsters.

　Therefore, the activities of the idol agency are based on Aine's preferences. She can do whatever she wants, and Mefilas will only provide Aine with some convenient assistance.

　Therefore, if Nagasaki Motoyo joined Tsuburaya Agency and wanted to work with Toyokawa Shoko and others, the person who arranged this decision was not the president Mefilas, but Chihaya Aine herself.

　As the manager of the M78 band, Metron seemed to have seen through this a long time ago. Now that Chihaya Aine asked her for help, she could take this opportunity to do Su Shi a small favor, which could be regarded as a repayment for the kindness of staying at Su Shi's house recently.

　"That... okay, I'll find a way to help."

　Chihaya Aine has been doing what she does: to bring together the members of the CRYCHIC band to ease their relations. Although Ms. Nagasaki Motoyo is a bit of a heavyweight, her intentions are good and the problem should not be too serious.

　Besides, the matter of the "Weird Friends Club" is more important. This kind of thing, which is similar to a cult organization, will definitely bring harm to many people and cause trouble once its ideas spread.

　As an Earthling, Chihaya Aine cannot sit idly by. Everyone has the responsibility to eradicate evil cult ideas and strike hard against them.

　"Okay, I'll help you gather intelligence. Wait for my good news tomorrow."

　Seeing that Chihaya Aine agreed to her conditions, Metron also readily agreed. Now it depends on Su Shi's own efforts. She can only help up to this point~ Le!

　Today is almost over, and it's time for Chihaya Aine to go home. But before going home, she has to change back into the Landmine Girl's clothes. Aine doesn't want her mother to see her like this and be scared to the point of cardiac arrest.

　Dark mine-type Chihaya Aine is offline, and daily form Chihaya Aine is online.

　Aine, who had fully recovered, naturally would not miss going to school because she had to go online the next day. She arrived at Haneda Academy early.
