Chapter 37 The Ghosts of the Cannibal Swamp
"Did you see the ghost fire?"
At the ZaT headquarters base, Mitsutaro said that he saw ghost fire while patrolling last night, but his teammates disagreed and instead joked.
At this time, a child called and said that he saw the ghost fire. The ZaT team members even laughed and said, "Hey, this is the ZaT team, the ZaT team that deals with monsters."
"Little guy, I'll say this," Nanyuan snatched the phone and smiled, "You call 4266342, that's the children's consultation room, find them!"
Because of the child, his teammates didn't believe in Guihuo even more, so Mitsutaro could only sulk.
"What are you quarreling early in the morning," Captain Asahina came in with a young man wearing the ZaT uniform. "Now introduce a new player, who is Ueno, to replace Nishida's player who was transferred to the Space Station."
"Please take care of it."
Having possessed her wild body, Xia Long looked at the ZaT team members who were quite familiar in front of him and greeted him as newcomers.
After Saburo and Shirai, he was in a bad situation this time. He did not encounter monster attacks as soon as he came up, nor did he become the target of monsters' revenge.
The ZaT team has no patrol mission yet. Captain Asahina gave a few words and left Xia Long to be familiar with everyone.
"After that," Bei Dao said bored while looking through the information, "I am still more interested in that black giant than the ghost fire. It hasn't appeared in recent times."
"Hey?" Nanhara approached Kitajima, "Are you talking about the Ultraman who saved Kotoro and Shirai Kan? Really, it has not appeared in the last few times."
"By the way, Kitajima, how was Shirai Kwan last time?" the deputy captain interrupted.
"Is that Shirai who was almost killed by a monster?" Kitajima shrugged, "I heard that I don't remember what happened to the young man who returned to Japan. Now I should go back to my hometown."
"Ah, it seems that I was quite stimulating."
Mitsutaro thought that Saburo had lost some memory for a while after he met, but was just teased by his teammates, so he didn't want to talk anymore, so he simply chatted with Ueno, a new team member possessed by Xia Long.
...
The next day, Xia Long was dispatched for the first time as a new team member. A child's father was swallowed by monsters in the swamp pond in the middle of the night.
"Deputy Captain, I also saw the ghost fire here." At the scene, Mitsutaro looked at the river water below and said quickly.
"It's really surprising that the ghost fire is actually the eyes of the monster."
"Jirou is so pitiful," sighed the middle-aged policeman who was also a witness. "Last year his mother died of illness, and now even his father has been eaten by monsters. How can a child live in the future? It's really worrying..."
Xia Long looked at the child who was silent by the river. The child stood by the water with a spear, not crying.
What a strong kid...
"Dad, I finally waited until today for your birthday... I will definitely avenge you!" The child held the spear tightly and patrolled the water surface motionlessly.
"Leave the revenge to us," Xia Long walked to the child and said, "The ZaT team will destroy the monsters."
"If you killed that monster last night, my dad wouldn't die!" The child said angrily, "I called ZaT team specifically, but you asked me to find a children's consultation room, you cowards!"
Xia Long looked at the Kwangtaro and the others beside him. Seeing that everyone was silent, he hurriedly said, "Can you blame us? Your father must not want something to happen to you."
The child looked at Xia Long without saying a word. His bright eyes made Xia Long think of the children he met in the Leo World in the past.
For ordinary people, even the most ordinary monster can bring about tragedy...
"Ueno," Nanhara said guiltily, "It's all my fault. If I had been serious yesterday, this wouldn't have happened."
"Now, destroy the monsters first, otherwise someone will be killed."
Xia Long sighed at the child and focused on investigation.
The monsters only appeared late at night, but there was no movement during the day. Several people were searching for the water in rubber boats, but nothing was revealed. In the end, Beidao used a fishing rod to catch many relics of the victims.
"There must be monsters lurking under the water," the deputy captain ordered, "Please send Rumida No. 2 to our headquarters!"
Rumida No. 2 is an underground chariot dedicated to ZaT team. After the female team member drove the chariot to transport the chariot in the Tianjing, Mitsutaro and Kitajima were responsible for riding the monsters in the underground chariot, and the others were responsible for attacking.
Xia Long originally wanted to propose to replace Bei Dao, but the legendary mark on his arm suddenly reacted.
Feeling the warmth of the mark, Xia Long did not speak, but quietly retreated to the back.
"I'll avenge the child."
Picking up the Imprint Spark and Zhaki doll, Xia Long directly merged into Zhaki and sank into the ground.
Following the aura of monsters, Xia Long found the nest. In addition to the sleeping monsters, there were many humans wrapped in ball capsules, which seemed to be not eaten to store winter food.
"Scared!"
The ZaT team's underground tank had not arrived yet, and Xia Long did not hesitate and picked up the monster and rushed out of the ground.
"What's going on? Did the monster act in advance?" The ground swayed violently, and the ZaT team members could hardly react.
"Quick, Moriyama is driving the Tian Whale, and the others are attacking on the ground. Where is Ueno Jun?"
"Person Captain, look!" Before the deputy captain could wonder where Xia Long was going, Nanyuan's scream interrupted, "It's Ultraman Black!"
"What?"
The deputy captain turned around and saw a red and black figure rushing out of the water with a monster in his arms.
"Why is that Ultraman here?"
"Bang!" After taking the monster out of the ground, Xia Long immediately crowded and threw the monster into the air. The light waves in his hand instantly penetrated the monster's body and brought out a violent explosion.
"Win?" The ZaT team members looked at the explosion in the sky and swallowed.
“Too fast!”
"Did Ultraman from Black come this time to destroy the monsters?"
By the river, Jiro stared at the monster and exploded into pieces, and tears finally couldn't help but flowed across his cheeks.
"dad……"
"Jirou, your father should not be dead yet," Xia Long returned to the ground and walked out from behind the child. "Happy, isn't your father's birthday today?"
"I saw my father being swallowed by a monster with my own eyes!" Jiro said with red eyes, "Dad will not come back."
"Jiro, Ueno Jun didn't lie to you," ZaT deputy captain ran over with his team members and smiled. "We found monster nests underground, and there were many people trapped as winter food. Your father might be inside."
"Really?" Jiro looked behind the ZaT team members and happened to see a group of confused people coming over. The figure in front surprised Jiro.
"dad!"
After wiping his face, Jiro shouted and rushed towards the middle-aged man who had not yet recovered his consciousness.
"Haha, Rou won't be alone next time." The deputy captain smiled and turned around and asked, "Mr. Ueno, where did you run away just now?"
"Well, why am I here?" Ueno looked at everyone in a daze, "Are you the seniors of the ZaT team? What happened?"
"What are you talking about, Ueno?" The ZaT players couldn't help looking at each other when they saw Ueno as if they had just met everyone.
