The social phobia substitute will not dream of the band girl

Bow, apologize, then lie down and let yourself be beaten. Even if it means exchanging one life for another, he must make Tōzuki Rin satisfied. This is Serizawa Ichiro's awareness!

Well...

Regardless of how ethnic his method is, and regardless of whether he has been infected with the funny bacteria of ordinary people at some point, at least his awareness is genuine.

"Well, I believe you..."

Having just left her office, Tiao Yue Liyin trembled as she took off her glasses. Her expression was filled with sadness and disbelief, like a leader of state...

I knew this day would come.

"I'm leaving..."

"where are you going?"

"I'm going to go find him... He must still be alive. He's the same guy after all, isn't he?"

"..."

Looking at the superb acting skills of Rion Chozuki in front of him, Ichiro Serizawa fell silent.

He also wanted to believe that his good friend was still alive in this world, but if the situation was not so urgent that he could not think calmly, how could Serizawa believe that people could survive a close-range nuclear explosion?

Damn it!

It was Ichiro Serizawa who miraculously survived the Hiroshima bombing. He should have returned the life he borrowed from the gods instead of watching his best friend die!!!

After being told by Liyin that he needed to calm down for a while, Serizawa waited outside the door, waiting close to the door, because he wanted to hear whether Liyin lost control of her emotions inside and tried to commit suicide.

But surprisingly, no matter whether it was 30 seconds, 3 minutes, or 10 minutes, there was still no sound from inside.

There was no sound of things being smashed, no emotional shouting, not even the sound of typing on the keyboard or using the mouse.

Just as Serizawa was wondering if his hearing was bad or if the door was too soundproof, the door opened...

But it was not opened by the person inside, but was knocked open by him, or rather squeezed open by him.

"Gone..."

Without any warning, Diao Yue Liyin, who was supposed to be inside, disappeared from the world, just like a dewdrop in the morning encountering strong sunlight, disappearing in an instant.

"I lost it again... I'm sorry—I'm so sorry, Hirashin-kun!!!"

Serizawa's roar reached the next floor, alarming the secretaries and managers, but at this moment he also discovered the letter on the table.

A piece of paper wrapped in a white envelope. What could be inside? A suicide note?

It's a suicide note, but it's not Tiao Yue Liyin's handwriting, but...

"Pingxin-kun?"

It turned out to be the handwriting of his best friend, but judging from the handwriting on the letter, it must have been written not a short time ago, and the ink handwriting was deeply imprinted on it.

......

...

..

Brother Serizawa, I am glad to see you in person. Good morning, noon and evening!

...Although I want to say this, when my wife Liyin passes this letter to you, I will probably no longer be in this world, haha.

Is one's own death something to be happy about?

Or do you want me to laugh and forget my sadness?

No matter what, what Serizawa should do now is to read this letter...read it in its entirety.

In the letter, Ping Xin was still as talkative as before, and several times his witty remarks made Serizawa's mouth curl up slightly.

But happy times are always short-lived, and in the end, humans have to face the cruel reality of life.

Because of the hasty diving system and the exposure to the radiation environment in Godzilla Temple, my body has long been exhausted.

Even though I still look young on the outside, I've actually turned into a mess on the inside...

So if I could have a heroic death, a heroic death, I would be very happy!

The former Liyin would not have seen this, but no one can predict what will happen in the future.

So, to be on the safe side, I'll ask you, my best friend in this world, Ichiro Serizawa, to tell Liyin for me—

Pass it on?

But now that things have come to this, what else can I say?

With a wry smile, Serizawa turned the page, and the following content made his eyes widen.

Tell her that I don't love her anymore, that I have gone far away with another woman, and that I never want to see her again.

What’s more, I have plenty of informants and money, and everyone in the company is my spies, so she will never be able to catch me.

"this......"

It doesn't matter if she can get over it after being depressed, or if she gives up on herself in anger and plays cat and mouse games all over the world chasing the messages I left behind -

I hope she forgets me.

And I'll leave this difficult task to you, Serizawa.

My best friend, I wish you all the best and great success in your career.

“I, I, I…”

Kneeling on the ground, crying silently, the guilt and sadness of not being able to do the last thing for his friend burst out, bringing Serizawa Ichiro's emotions and thoughts to the brink of collapse.

But at this moment, he suddenly discovered something, and then he began to interpret it frantically as if he had grabbed the last straw.

And what he discovered...

This was the code he and Ping Xin used to communicate. After the Emperor Organization did something that disappointed them, the two began to communicate using this code.

Ichiro Serizawa, you have been bound by chains such as your family's mission, the survival of mankind, and the secrets of giant beasts for too long. If you have the chance, go travel!

Traveling is a wonderful thing. It allows people to regain the feeling of freshness and surprise when they first see something. It allows people to realize their own insignificance from the magnificent nature, and to see the development and progress of mankind from advanced technology and ancient buildings.

But you know what the most amazing thing about it is?

That is to allow people to rediscover themselves through the scenery, encounters and stories along the way after experiencing one thing after another!

So go travel, Serizawa!

The funds I left for you are in...

"..."

Tears welled up in my eyes, flowed down my cheeks, and finally dripped onto the paper.

Under normal circumstances, Serizawa could still use his rationality to restrain himself and tell himself not to destroy his friend's last message.

But at this moment, how could he hold back?

"Resign...I want to resign——"

Regardless of how much impact that short email had on the Imperial Organization and the entire world, Serizawa Ichiro embarked on a journey.

At the same time, he also began his journey of finding himself...

Chapter 34 Intermission Go be a hero, Serizawa!

After Hirashin's death, Ichiro Serizawa began traveling around the world on a journey to find himself.

But as fate would have it, it seemed that his fate was closely linked to the existence of the giant beast, so wherever he went he would make new discoveries, and even if he wanted to ignore them he would be drawn into the events.

This unprecedented wave of monsters lasted for several years, and Dr. Serizawa's journey also lasted for several years, until some kind of fate or a terrifying existence in the dark dragged him into the quagmire of the monster war again -

King Kong, one of the giant beasts that was discovered on Skull Island.

Godzilla, the undisputed king of the monsters, is also the best-selling peripheral product.

But these two talented people are about to have a final battle.

The reason lies in the conspiracy of Apex Corporation. They are plotting to use the giant beasts to create super mechanical monsters, and then expel all the giant beasts from the earth, leaving no one alive...

But in this world line, Ghidorah did not "leave one head behind", so their Mechagodzilla could not find a suitable head, and finally they set their sights on the MUTO hatchling.

Speaking of this MUTO hatchling, it was a gift that Hiranobu brought to Serizawa back then, and it is also one of the collections in his monster museum.

After learning that his good brother's dream was destroyed and trampled upon, Serizawa was furious and vowed to get to the bottom of the truth.

During a series of thrilling expeditions to the inner world, Dr. Serizawa remembered the words:

"Go be a hero, Ichiro Serizawa!"

Shouting like this, with the help of Okaz (an AI modified version of the giant beast language translator) left behind by Hira Nobuyuki, Dr. Serizawa rushed out and saved the world once again.

After allowing Godzilla and King Kong to coexist peacefully and informing them of the importance of humans, the world ushered in a brief period of peace.

I wonder who or which giant beast will become the source of disaster next time?

No matter what, Dr. Serizawa, who was previously recognized by the world as the pilot of Mechagodzilla (a weakened version of the MUTO core), will take action!

"...That's it. What a nice ending, isn't it?"

"...No, you've completely changed it, haven't you?"

A middle-aged man becomes the driver of a huge mechanical monster. Even ordinary science fiction writers dare not use such an exaggerated setting.

At the moment, it is really hard to say whether it is a bad movie or something new, or whether it is simply too far beyond current human understanding.

"Well...anyway, as long as the result is good, right, Kei~?"

At Ping Xin's feet, three yellow loaches that looked like miniature oriental dragons were wrestling with each other. Today, they were also competing for food.

But in the end, it was the eldest brother ONE who ate the most, the second brother TWO was not hungry either, and only the third brother THREE looked at them with tears in his eyes. Not only was he beaten and cried, but he also had no food to eat. He looked so pitiful.

"Hehe...but the preparations are complete. I don't know why it took so long this time, but let's set off now—"

To the next world!

Chapter 35 Who is the King?

"This world... looks quite futuristic. Could it be some cyberpunk world?"

"I don't know, but—"

Before Ping Xin could finish the second half of his sentence, he opened his eyes wide in surprise because of some "phenomenon". Then, in a ten-thousandth of a second, he realized the cruel fact and finally regained his composure.

"Anyway, let's go and take a look... I think the old tricks should still work."

Use power to block all perceptions except vision, use "bait" to draw a lottery, and then randomly select a lucky passerby to provide information.

All kinds of martial arts, this is magnetic field fishing!

"I see. The time in this world has already reached 2087... Then these things don't seem strange at all. After all, 2077 has already passed."

After erasing the memory of the clueless passerby, Ping Xin already knew what era it was and which Earth this was.

First of all, this is not a singularity, but just one of the results of the evolution of ordinary human civilization on Earth... and it's not a good one.

First of all, there is no unification of the Earth, nor is it divided into two factions like the Federation and Zeon. Humanity has not even entered the space age.

On this planet that is no longer so beautiful, those countries are still playing their own games, but they have all entered a cyberpunk-like stage of super-solidified classes.

This planet is still full of poverty, famine and war. Apart from some technological advances, product iterations and changes in popular sayings, human beings themselves have made almost no progress.

The monopoly of various resources has even led to a population with even more uneven quality than it was 50 years ago. The world has become a toy for a small elite, while the lower classes live in a muddle-headed state...

Eh, it doesn't seem much different from before?

In short, except for the smaller scale of the war, the fact that it broke out locally in the form of proxy wars just like more than 50 years ago, and the fact that there was no network outage, other aspects are similar to the worldview in the game Cyberpunk 2077.

But that only applies to the majority of countries. Although some countries still don’t understand the exact form, at least on the surface people are human beings, and both the appearance and the substance are better.

"So what should we do now? Does your ability tell you what we should do this time?"

Even though he and Liyin have been married for many years in many different worlds, there are still secrets between them, such as the true nature of some of their abilities.

He usually only says "what I can do", but avoids talking about the principles, true nature, and origins of those abilities.

For example, suppose a person's ability is to fly. Even the same performance has many possibilities:

For example, growing wings to fly, defying gravity, controlling the wind, communicating with spirits in the atmosphere, moving by generating support points in the air, walking in the air with one's own physical strength, using magic and energy, etc.
