Chapter 68: Ultimate Prototype
Chapter 68: Ultimate Prototype (12)
So Kawahara successfully skipped work the next day.
In the end, it was Yusuke Godai who helped him take a leave from the company in time, so that the new administrative director did not find an excuse to fire him.
10:45am.
Kanto Medical University Hospital.
Tsubaki Xiuyi looked at the examination video in confusion: "What on earth did you do? Why did the belt suddenly become so exhausted? He hasn't recovered yet. The injury two days ago was not this exaggerated."
Godai Yusuke thought for a moment and said, "I'm not sure, but Kawahara-senpai seems to be a bit like he was back then..."
It was when he woke up in the hospital for the first time and the other person touched his belt, and he instantly understood modern language and what was happening at the time.
Hearing this, Tsubaki Xiuyi suddenly realized: "You mean his 'superpower' like mind reading, right?"
Yusuke Godai nodded.
After roughly understanding the situation, Chunxiu suddenly revealed a somewhat strange smile, staring at the person lying on the bed with shining eyes.
"This guy is incredible... He has completely aroused my interest in anatomy!"
"..."
Yusuke Godai took a step back with a little fear.
Tsubaki Hideichi, who was rubbing his hands, seemed to want to dissect the person on the spot. Seeing this, Godai Yusuke quickly stepped forward to stop him, saying awkwardly: "Um... isn't this bad?"
Chun Xiuyi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I was just joking~"
"That's true!"
Then Yusuke Godai also laughed.
Then when Chun Xiuyi tried to lift the quilt again, he quickly grabbed it. After the two of them looked at each other tacitly, they immediately started to compete with each other secretly.
At this moment, a cell phone rang suddenly from the coat on the rack.
The two people who were pulling each other turned their heads to look at the same time.
It was Kawahara's cell phone. Yusuke Godai quickly took it out and looked at it. The caller ID showed it was Kaoru Ichijo.
"Hello, Mr. Ichijo?"
[“Eh? Godai, where are you and Kawahara now? There is a case of suspected unidentified life forms’ actions!”]
Kaoru Ichijo called the cafe first, but the manager, Shikidama, said that Yusuke Godai went to visit Kawahara early in the morning, so he immediately called Kawahara again.
It’s just that the person who answered the phone didn’t seem right.
"I understand. I'll be there right now!" Yusuke Godai responded quickly.
[“Wait, where’s Kawahara?”]
"Ah... He was here with Mr. Tsubaki yesterday, and he hasn't woken up yet. I'll rush over there first!" said Yusuke Godai.
Although he was curious about what happened to Kawahara, this was not the time to ask further questions. After telling him the location of the incident, Kaoru Ichijo hung up the phone.
Godai Yusuke then looked at Tsubaki Shuuichi and said, "Mr. Tsubaki, I'm leaving Kawahara-senpai in your care!"
Chunxiu nodded: "Don't worry."
……
After watching Godai Yusuke leave, Tsubaki Shuichi turned on the TV again and watched the news reports about unconfirmed life forms. He was roughly sure that he would probably have a job again.
However, before waiting for the Metropolitan Police Department to send the bodies of the victims, Tsubaki Hideichi turned his attention to Kawahara again.
In his hands were two MRI images from this morning, one of Kawahara and one of Yusuke Godai, both images of the belt integrated into the body.
"It's weird..."
Apart from the defective part of the Agur Spirit Stone, this belt is actually not much different from Yusuke Godai's belt. The only difference is that one part of the connected nervous system has entered the brain, while the other is still lingering in the torso.
Then Tsubaki Shuichi took a closer look at Kawahara's head.
"Could it be that the nervous system affects the brain, so that something like 'superpowers' evolves? I wonder if Godai Yusuke..."
——If the influence of the spirit stone reaches the same level as this person, will he also gain unimaginable abilities?
Although Tsubaki Hideichi was curious about this change, after dissecting countless bodies of victims and monsters, he understood more and more what "unconfirmed life forms" meant, and he didn't want Godai Yusuke to reach this point. And the person in front of him had been influenced since the ancient times.
But it is this belt that has kept him alive until now.
While thinking about these things, Chunxiu's eagerness to explore became active again.
Just as his palm touched his abdomen, it was accurately grabbed by another hand and then thrown away skillfully.
"What are you going to do?" Kawahara rubbed his forehead and sat up.
"I just checked to see if you were awake. It seems like it's just in time. It's already time for lunch." Chunxiu rubbed his wrist without changing his expression.
"..."
Kawahara sat on the bed for a long time, then touched his abdomen and felt that the spirit stone had calmed down, which meant that the state that threatened his mental strength should have been replenished.
But I still feel a little tired.
He thought it was because he didn't have lunch.
"What's for lunch?"
Kawahara turned his head and looked at Tsubaki Shuichi.
……
00.19pm.
Tsubaki Hideichi put the lunch box he bought downstairs on the dining board in front of him, then sat down beside him and opened a lunch box for himself. Then he remembered something and said, "Oh, I forgot to tell you that an unconfirmed life form appeared today."
Kawahara, who was about to open the box, asked: "When? Has the fifth generation passed?"
"Around 10:30 in the morning, the main area attacked was Sumida District. The Five Generations set out immediately, but I don't know how they are handling it now." Tsubaki Shuichi said.
"Is that so... I'll go check it out later."
Kawahara opened the lunch box and saw the neatly arranged pork cutlet rice inside as expected.
Kawahara was silent: "..."
Chun Xiuyi was just about to start eating when his cell phone, which he had kept inside his white coat, started to ring. He reached out and took it out, and it was another Xun.
Chun Xiuyi raised an eyebrow and answered: "I'm Chun."
But after hearing what was said on the other end, Tsubaki Shuichi's expression gradually became serious. He responded and hung up the phone. He looked at Kawahara and was about to speak when the latter spoke first.
"I heard."
Kawahara closed his lunch box and stood up: "I'll leave the Five Dais to you. I'll go over there now."
——Godai was seriously injured and fell into a coma after fighting with the unidentified life form No. 39. Kaoru Ichijo had him sent to Kanto Medical University Hospital, but the problem of No. 39 has not been solved yet.
Kawahara couldn't quite remember which Gurongi No. 39 was, so he had to understand some characteristics to be sure.
However, there are not many enemies in the play who can give Kuuga a life-saving buff, and after the battle with Owl that day, Kawahara clearly felt that this group of Gurongi had undergone some different changes.
Not only is the "Go Group" itself uniquely powerful, but they have already begun to show the beginnings of their ultimate power.
Unfortunately, since Baluba was the riddle teller, Kawahara didn't have an accurate clue about it.
So he decided to go and meet him in person again.
Just use the new form he got!
……
……
I'll see if I can add more chapters today, the number of chapters left makes me a little desperate...
