The everlasting link of light

After a long time

"I'm sorry for making you worry. I will never do such a rash thing again next time."

Inside the Titan Base Operations Meeting Room

Kaito was constantly bowing to express his apologies to everyone present. After all, he couldn't say that he was Ultraman Max, so Kaito could only say that it was Ultraman Max who saved him at the critical moment.

"Well, at least Kaito, I hope you can come back safely."

Without waiting for anyone else to speak, Captain Hijikata stepped forward to defend Kaito, but then he changed the subject and said:

"But! Kaito, you have to remember that sometimes being reckless does not represent your courage. I know you are a very brave young man, but next time don't do such dangerous things and make everyone worry."

Although he was scolding, the concern in Captain Hijikata's eyes could not be hidden.

Kaito's heart suddenly warmed when he saw this, and then he quickly lowered his head and responded: "I'm sorry, Captain, I know I was wrong."

"Well, it's good to admit your mistakes and correct them."

Captain Hijikata held Kaitorou in his arms and patted his back a few times, then returned to his seat with a smile.

At this time, Kaito glanced at the combat meeting room and found that the figure he had been thinking about the most was not there, so he pretended to be calm and asked: "Captain, have you seen Team Member Mizuki? Why is she not here?"

Hearing this, Captain Hijikata immediately laughed out loud.

"Oh, you mean Ruixi~"

"Pfft!"

"Hehehe~"

Not only Captain Hijikata, but also Kitahara and Shin on the side covered their mouths tightly to hold back their laughter. Even the elderly Tomioka and Yoshinaga showed meaningful smiles.

"Hey?"

Seeing everyone looking a little abnormal, Kaito tilted his head in confusion, and just when he was about to continue asking, he suddenly felt a very beautiful little hand on his left shoulder.

"Ok?"

Kaito turned his head and looked along his arm, only to see Mizuki standing behind him with her head lowered.

Kaito said with great joy: "Mizuki!"

"bump!"

"Dangdang!"

Without any warning, Mizuki threw Kaito to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw, instantly leaving a dent in the floor tiles.

"It hurts! Ruixi, what are you doing?"

After being thrown onto his back, Kaito was about to ask Mizuki what this meant, but what he saw were Mizuki's red eyes.

"Rui Xi, you..."

However, before Kaito could finish, Mizuki shouted excitedly, "You idiot! Idiot! Why did you act on your own? Do you know how dangerous this is? If you don't handle it well, you will die!"

Kaito couldn't help but be stunned after being yelled at by Mizuki. After all, Mizuki was famous for her calmness and composure, and he had almost never seen her lose her composure like this.

"I'm sorry, I...I won't do this again next time."

After all, he was the one who was in the wrong first, so at this moment Kaito could only ask for forgiveness by apologizing and making promises, but Mizuki was obviously not buying it.

"Hmph~ You made me worry for so long in vain, and you just want to get away with it with a few simple apologies. You really look down on me."

With a slight smile on her lips, Mizuki then firmly grasped Kaito's legs and walked out.

"Come with me! I have to teach you a lesson today! Otherwise, you won't learn your lesson next time!"

"Wait! Mizuki! Hashidou Sack!"

Seeing that Ruixi was really going to do something ruthless today, Kaito panicked and quickly grabbed the door frame at the last moment before being pulled out.

"Captain! Team member Mu Ting! Team member Xien! Ellie! Why are you just watching! Hurry up and save me!"

However, in the face of Kaito's desperate call for help, the reactions of several people were surprisingly consistent.

Captain Hijikata: "Oh, I'm really getting old. My tinnitus has been really bad lately. I have to make an appointment to see a doctor."

Mu Ting: "Hiss~ My guns seem to have some minor problems. Looks like I have to send them for repair."

Sheen: "Don't bother, I'll help you with it."

Ellie: "Low battery~Low battery, entering power saving mode."

Seeing his teammates not helping him, Kaito shouted in anger, "You are so disloyal!"

"Stop talking nonsense! Follow me!"

Not wanting to stay here any longer, Ruixi released her ultimate power and pulled Kaito away.

"Ya Butterfly!"

As the door to the operations meeting room closed, Kaito's screams were heard.

"Remember to go to the third warehouse on the left side of Channel 2. The surveillance there happened to be broken yesterday, and the soundproofing is very good!"

Just after the two left, Tomioka suddenly ran to the door like a child and shouted a reminder. I don't know if Mizuki could hear it.

"Young people nowadays are so energetic, even more energetic than when I was young~"

After giving a thumbs-up to Kaito and Mizuki as they left, Tomioka put on a serious look and said to Captain Hijikata:

"Captain Hijikata, can we have a good talk now about your previous disobedience?"

"Well, I am willing to accept any punishment."

Without much explanation, Captain Hijikata stood up and walked up to Tomioka to apologize.

Staring closely at the old subordinate in front of him, Tomioka's expression looked extremely serious, as if he was thinking about something.

"Haha! As punishment for your disobedience, you will have to pay for my curry rice today!"

Tomioka suddenly laughed, then grabbed Captain Hijikata and walked out.

"Wait sir! I haven't got my wallet yet!"

"It's okay. My curry rice is not expensive. If it doesn't work, I'll just ask you, Captain Dash, to wash the dishes in the kitchen~"

Captain Hijikata was sweating! "Isn't this too hasty?"

"Not careless, not careless at all~"

No matter what Hijikata said, Tomioka looked as if he didn't care.

"Hurry up and eat. After you finish eating, help me fix the potted plants. My eyesight has not been good recently and I'm afraid I might damage them~"
