Chapter 108: Transforming Humans into Gurongi
Chapter 108: Transforming Humans into Gurongi
01:09pm.
Kanto Medical University Hospital.
On the way to the hospital, Kaoru Ichijo bought a box lunch for Kawahara to replenish his energy. Although he himself had not eaten lunch, he was not in the mood to eat at the moment.
At the hospital, Tsubaki Hideichi, who received the call, came out to meet them. His first reaction after seeing Kawahara was to be stunned.
"Are you really back?"
"Ichijo Police Officer should have made it clear."
Kawahara found that everyone had this reaction when they saw him, but his senses were only away for a day, but suddenly he felt that there was a generation gap between everyone.
Sure enough, time and space confusion is the most troublesome thing.
Tsubaki Hideichi said with a serious expression: "You came back just in time. What happened yesterday is probably beyond our comprehension. I just wanted to ask you if you have ever experienced something similar in the ancient times."
Kawahara frowned: "Can you just say it directly?"
"Come with me first."
Tsubaki Hideichi turned around and headed back the way he came. Kawahara and Ichijo Kaoru looked at each other and immediately followed him.
Tsubaki Hideichi, who was wearing a white coat and a mask, should have been working before, so the place he took the two of them to was also the forensic autopsy station where he was working.
Before, Tsubaki Shuichi had always said that he wanted to do an autopsy on him, but this was Kawahara's first time in the autopsy room.
After putting a pair of masks on the two people, Chun Xiuyi lifted the cover on the dissection table, revealing an ugly monster with dark green skin.
Kawahara was stunned when he saw this: "Gurongi?"
At this time, Kaoru Ichijo looked at Tsubaki Shuichi with a heavy face and asked another question: "Is he the man from yesterday?"
Tsubaki Xiuyi nodded silently.
After getting the confirmation, Kaoru Ichijo took a deep breath and explained to Kawahara: "He is the pilot of the G1 armor yesterday."
Kawahara: "...?"
Kawahara looked at him in astonishment, then looked at the corpse on the dissection table. After he realized something, he reached out to the monster's abdomen.
"There is no stone inside. I have studied it. When it was first delivered yesterday, it still had the appearance of a human, but after one night it completely turned into this." Tsubaki Hideichi said.
"What's going on?" Kawahara looked at them.
"Yesterday, the Metropolitan Police Department sent out G1 Armor and No. 4 to deal with No. 43. However, after No. 43 was defeated, No. 0 appeared. I don't know what he did, but the driver in the G1 Armor lost control."
Kaoru Ichijo clenched his fists and whispered, "That guy said... he became a warrior like 'them'."
This is why Kaoru Ichijo said before that "there is another reason why the G1 armor went out of control."
Kawahara looked uncertain, and recalled the ambiguous words that Baluba said this morning.
——He is the new Gurongi.
——Gurongi will never disappear.
And what Daguba said to him not long ago probably had another meaning.
That rascal……
Able to transform humans into Gurongi.
Kawahara slowly withdrew his hand. He indeed did not sense the Kidru belt in this strange man's body, nor did he sense any aura of excess power.
This person was probably just transformed into the lowest level Gurongi, which is why he could easily lose control because his beastly hunting instincts were completely magnified.
When Tsubaki Hideichi was about to speak, Kawahara calmly said, "This kind of thing has never happened in ancient times."
But after saying this, Kawahara paused again.
He looked at them seriously and explained, "At least, this has never happened in the Linduo tribe where I live, but it may happen in other places, so this possibility still exists."
Chunxiu opened her mouth, then took a step back in frustration: "This kind of thing..."
Turning people into mindless monsters...
This is more terrifying than the existence of unconfirmed life forms.
In the past year, Tsubaki Shuichi has been responsible for dissecting hundreds of human corpses that died from "unidentified life forms", but this is the first time he has seen the appearance of "humans who have been transformed into monsters."
In fact, he didn't even rest for the whole night, watching this person's transformation step by step. Will there be more such things in the future?
"Do all high-level Gurongi have this ability? Or only No. 0?" The relatively calm Kaoru Ichijo suddenly asked.
"No, there should only be the King of Gurongi."
Kawahara's eyes flickered slightly: "I think I understand. You don't have to worry about humans being transformed in large numbers. It won't happen before the final battle with that guy."
Hearing this, Xun Ichijo breathed a sigh of relief, but then became confused and worried: "But No. 0's action..."
"Leave this matter to me," Kawahara said.
He just remembered a Gurongi setting that did not exist in this world but was revealed in another parallel time and space.
The Wolf Clan Gurongi, the King of Gurongi from the Kuga world of Decade, is said to be able to use the power of "Ultimate Darkness" to transform humans into Gurongi.
Because it was a different world, Kawahara had never thought about this problem before.
but now……
Daguba, who had just returned from disappearing, also gained this power. Could it be that this guy had secretly traveled through time and space?
However, the greater possibility is that this world originally has this possibility. After all, the entire ancient times did not necessarily have only the Daguba branch of the Gurongi people.
And considering that madman Daguba doesn't care about the Gurongi clan, transforming the Gurongi is not his goal - the ultimate battle is.
Then this incident is probably just a threat.
A threat that forced Kuuga to fight him as quickly as possible.
"I'll take care of this."
Kawahara lowered his eyes slightly and his gaze fell on the human Gurongi on the dissection table.
The two people next to him looked at each other and then at him. Tsubaki Xiuyi suddenly said, "Ichijo said earlier that you seemed to be injured. Do you need me to check you out?"
Kawahara nodded upon hearing this: "My injuries are fine, but there are some things that I may need you to check for me."
Tsubaki Shuichi had been prepared for his usual rejection, but he didn't expect that he would agree this time.
He couldn't help but ask curiously, "So where did you go during this time you disappeared? Wu Dai said that you often mentioned the demon king who destroyed time and space. Did you go to fight the demon king?"
Kawahara: “…Just treat it as such.”
Unexpectedly, Godai Yusuke actually told Tsubaki Shuichi about his mumblings that day.
However, Tsubaki Hideichi didn't believe it: "Forget it, you are always mysterious and mysterious anyway, so just come back. Do you want to go see the Five Generations?"
"He never woke up?"
"without……"
When talking about Godai Yusuke, Tsubaki Hideichi's expression became a little gloomy again.
While Kaoru Ichijo went to retrieve the autopsy data, before he took Kawahara to the examination room, the two of them first went to the ward where Yusuke Godai was resting.
However, when he pushed open the door of the ward and walked in, Tsubaki Xiuyi found that there was no one on the bed.
He was stunned for a moment, then realized that Yusuke Godai might have woken up, and hurried to the bathroom to look for him.
As a result, when he walked quickly past the bed, Godai Yusuke suddenly jumped out from behind the curtain that half blocked the bed - "Wow!"
Tsubaki Shuichi was indeed startled, and when he turned around he saw Godai Yusuke smiling at him.
"What..." Chun Xiuyi was speechless.
"Mr. Tsubaki, good afternoon!"
Yusuke Godai's smile was full of energy, and his thumbs-up was full of vitality.
Seeing this familiar scene, Tsubaki Hideichi smiled helplessly, then pointed to the door. Godai Yusuke turned his head curiously and his eyes widened in surprise.
"Kawahara-senpai, you're back!"
