Under the night sky, the beach above was exceptionally quiet.
After flying around in the Victory Falcon, Daigo and Shinjo still hadn't found any sign of a monster.
"There's really not even a shadow of a monster." Shinjo scratched his head in bewilderment. "Right, Master Jianghe seems to be on vacation at the beach right now. Should we go ask him for advice?"
"Master Jianghe? Why would he be there?" A look of surprise crossed Captain Jujo's face when she heard this.
How could she not know that her husband was on vacation at the beach? It seemed that he hadn't mentioned it to her.
Meanwhile, Zong Fang, Norie, and the others in the base, who were waiting for Daigo and Shinjo to bring back news, were all envious.
This was the life, the good life.
They were just hanging out at the beach on vacation, blowing the sea breeze and enjoying a barbecue at night.
Compared to them, still stuck in the command room waiting for news, it was way more comfortable.
Even Lena, who was actually on vacation, was already in the command room after finishing her day back at the base.
"Master Jianghe's vacation at the beach this time actually has something to do with Daigo." Shinjo felt a bit upset when he brought it up.
If it wasn't for this, how would he be in the command room, saying something wrong and getting on the Captain's bad side?
Shinjo continued, "Daigo wanted to learn some monster knowledge from Master Jianghe, so he prepared two beach vacation vouchers as a gesture of goodwill. He even intended to give one of them to my sister, Mayumi."
"I know about that. He asked Mayumi, and then he asked me, and finally Dr. Berum took it." Lena nodded in confirmation, speaking from the command room.
As soon as she said this, the trio of Zong Fang and Horii looked at Daigo on the main screen with wide eyes and strange expressions.
Daigo, the little rascal, was the real tiger...!
He had already approached three of the four women they knew in the Victory Team base, and the last one was the Captain! He perfectly avoided the right answer.
Shinjo had only said to the Captain that he wanted to pair up his sister with Master Jianghe, but Daigo had practically taken action.
He was smooth...
Zong Fang and the trio could guess, even without sneaking a peek, that the Captain's face must be turning black.
"Daigo, after you and Shinjo finish your investigation, return to the base. Besides needing to learn about monsters, you, like Shinjo, need to practice Zen meditation. Considering the number of times you've crashed recently while dealing with monsters, which is similar to Shinjo, you'll both be adding this training that cultivates mental strength to your schedule starting tomorrow." Jujo rubbed her forehead in pain.
One after another, her subordinates were trying to introduce girlfriends to her husband.
The worst part was that she couldn't directly say it. If Shinjo's big mouth knew, then perhaps the whole base would know.
Lena's embarrassing situation before would be even more embarrassing. She would have to wait until the impact of this matter subsided, or until Lena forgot about it, before mentioning it.
Daigo, on the other hand, was bewildered. Why was he suddenly getting an additional training item?
.........
Hotel, seventh floor, room.
Jianghe had already heard about the explosion at the nearby offshore power station on the way back to his room after having dinner with Berum Reiko.
Even without seeing it with his own eyes, he could already guess the reason behind it.
"It's started, it has to be him." Jianghe leaned against the window balcony, casually glancing at the location of a room in the distance.
A man who was also leaning against the window balcony seemed to have some sense of alert. After reluctantly nodding to him in a composed manner, he immediately turned and went back to his room.
Abaddon cells, a type of cosmic cell discovered on a rock from outer space that TPC's Space Development Center happened to obtain.
It can enhance a creature's various abilities by leaps and bounds, but at the same time, it also amplifies the darkness within the creature's heart and extreme emotions.
It requires a lot of electricity to sustain life.
Thinking of this, Jianghe smiled slightly. He didn't pay much attention to it, and after blowing the sea breeze for a while, he turned and went back to his room.
"Beep beep."
He was just about to lie down when he found his communicator ringing twice.
"It wouldn't be Daigo coming to take credit, would it?" Jianghe was exasperated. Thinking about Berum Reiko's matter, he was already considering how to bleed Daigo... No, no, how to give him some good guidance later.
As soon as Jianghe opened the lid, he found that it wasn't Daigo on the other end, but his domineering wife, Jujo.
"I hope I haven't disturbed you." On the screen, Jujo looked at him with strange eyes, with an indescribable meaning in her voice.
"If you have to say it that way, it's a bit... Disturbing, I was just about to lie down." Seeing Jujo's strange expression and her question, Jianghe was stunned for a moment, then tried to answer honestly.
The disturbance this woman was talking about must be about disturbing his rest, right?
After all, it was almost twelve o'clock already.
"???" Jujo glared at him. This guy actually said he was a bit disturbed, and he was just about to lie down?
Was he with Dr. Berum right now?
After learning about the beach vacation, she couldn't help but feel uneasy. After thinking about it, she decided to check things out.
"Uh, is there something wrong?" Jianghe looked at Jujo, who suddenly narrowed her eyes, in bewilderment. Did this domineering wife have her period recently? Was she being a little moody?
"No, nothing wrong..." Jujo suddenly changed her words, a little embarrassed, because she realized she had misunderstood.
Not only was there no sign of Berum Reiko in the room, but there were also some of her belongings in an open clothes bag in the distance, seemingly prepared for her.
Combined with the use of Daigo's two beach vacation vouchers, she had figured out something.
PS: It's estimated to be put on shelves tomorrow night or the day after tomorrow. I'll try to add more updates then.
