GUYS team base, Phoenix Nest headquarters.

The members of the GUYS team gathered together.

On the table of the base, there is a photo frame with a photo embedded in it.

The background of the photo is pink cherry blossoms, with cherry blossom petals drifting in the wind.

The main shot shows all members of the GUYS team.

Kirisaki and Sakomizu Shingo stood in the center, with the rest of the people scattered on both sides.

In the photo, everyone's face is filled with smiles.

However, in comparison, Future's face looked slightly pale and his smile seemed very forced.

After defeating Pedron, at the invitation of the Tokugawa family, all members of the GUYS team rested for a night in Nagoya Castle.

The next morning, everyone wanted to leave immediately.

However, the head of the Tokugawa family, Tokugawa Asado, said that he had sent people to buy ingredients for lunch, and strongly requested that everyone finish lunch before leaving.

It was hard to refuse such a kind invitation, and after Tokugawa Asado's repeated requests, everyone was finally forced to stay.

Tokugawa Miho took the time to take everyone to visit various attractions in Nagoya, satisfying everyone's desire to travel.

The camera that Teppei Kuze brought also came in handy.

Now that all the members of the GUYS team are here, it is natural to take photos to commemorate this happy reunion.

With the help of Tokugawa Miho, this photo was placed on the desktop.

……

Time flies by like a white horse.

Two days have passed since the Nagoya Castle Monster incident.

During these two days, the whole world has returned to its former peace and tranquility.

The missing person report at the police station seemed to have been paused, and suddenly there was no news.

This is rare good news for the busy police.

The missing persons cases that broke out a few days ago are still being investigated, but those missing persons seem to have evaporated from the face of the earth, with no trace of them at all.

In this regard, the GUYS team also came forward to explain to the police: those missing people were most likely buried in the stomachs of the alien beasts.

However, the police need to present facts and reason when investigating cases, and cannot make conclusions on all disappearance cases based on speculation.

Even if they have learned relatively authoritative results, they still have to try to find evidence and clues.

This is also a responsibility to the families of the victims.

Although the members of the GUYS team were willing to help, they were unable to do so and could only leave the rest of the matters to the police to handle.

Kirisaki and Sakomizu Shingo were both sitting in their seats, drinking coffee comfortably.

The members of the GUYS team were chatting.

The rare peace relaxed their tense nerves.

Kirisaki looked at the smiles that inadvertently appeared on everyone's faces as they chatted and laughed, and was a little absent-minded.

After returning from Nagoya Castle, Kirisaki immediately went to the basement where Hirikawa was hiding.

But unfortunately, when he arrived, the basement was empty.

Just as he expected, his remote fight with Dark Zaki ended up alerting the enemy.

This made Kirisaki feel stuffy in his heart, as if his blood vessels were blocked, and he felt suffocated from time to time.

Looking at these lively and well-behaved team members in front of him, Kirisaki secretly made up his mind to find the clue of Dark Zagi as soon as possible, to protect the team members he cherished and to protect this planet.

Aihara Ryu suddenly asked, "Where's that guy from the future? Where did he go again?"

"I don't know. It seems like he never returned to the base in the beginning."

"What a rude boy! Look at the future in this photo, he looks so weak! Does he have kidney deficiency? We need to make some wolfberries to nourish him."

Everyone's eyes immediately fell on the group photo.

"Hahaha, he is already thin in the future, and with his pale face, he is simply a man with kidney deficiency!"

Everyone burst into laughter.

Tian Gu Mu Zhimei restrained her smile, and then said angrily: "Okay, don't speak without restraint just because you are kind in the future."

"Didn't Instructor Kirisaki explain it to us? The Alien Beast Pedron released a powerful force field at close range. Mirai rushed too far forward and was frightened by the aura of the force field, so his face turned pale."

"Everyone has seen the horror of the alien beasts. If we really have to fight them at close range, we might not be as good as the future."

Amatani Kiyomi's words reminded Aihara Ryu. A trace of worry flashed across his eyes, and he muttered to himself, "Could this guy really have been hurt by the alien beast? In previous battles, he never missed a fight no matter how seriously injured he was."

"No...I need to go check it out."

Aihara Ryu immediately walked towards the entrance of the base.

But before he could step out of the door, Hibino Mirai came towards him.

At this moment, Future's face has returned to normal.

His steps were steady and his breath was long, and he didn't look weak at all.

"Future?" Aihara Ryu was startled, then asked in a somewhat reproachful tone: "Where did you go? I thought you were lost."

Hibino Mirai was stunned for a moment, then scratched her head and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's my fault for not coming to meet up with everyone the first time."

Then Future changed the subject and raised his left hand which had been hidden behind his back.

He smiled and said, "I made gifts for everyone myself!"

All members of the GUYS team were immediately curious and looked at his left hand.

I saw about ten pendants, necklaces, ornaments and the like hanging on her left hand.

These pendants are all strung together by a black rope, and the objects on the rope have different shapes.

There are crescent-shaped objects that look like ivory, pendants that look like car keys, and bracelets made of beads...

But the same thing is that the color of these objects is uniformly black.

A bright red pattern is engraved on the black color.

"This is……"

"Various necklaces, bracelets, and pendants?"

"You made all this yourself?"

The GUYS team members gathered around curiously.

"This is the amulet I made for everyone," Future explained. "Everyone has one."

Aihara Ryu took the piece he liked directly from Mirai's hand, looked at it carefully, and then put it in his arms.

"Why did you suddenly think of making amulets for us?" asked Ryu Aihara.

The others also looked towards the future with confusion on their faces.

Weilai scratched his head and explained sheepishly: "I heard that amulets can ward off disasters, so I thought of making one for everyone."

"During this alien beast incident, the white fog that erupted in Nagoya obscured our vision and almost caused us to get separated."

"With this amulet, if we encounter a similar crisis again in the future, perhaps fate will be able to guide us to meet again."

"They are not only a symbol of our friendship, but also my blessing to everyone!"

As the future was speaking, it distributed the amulets to everyone.

Only after every team member had received a piece of money did Weilai walk towards Captain Poshui.

"Captain Sasui, this is for you!"

Shingo Sakumui showed a look of surprise, and then took it from Mirai: "Thank you!"

Kirisaki looked at this heartwarming scene and couldn't help but smile.

"Instructor Kirisaki, this last piece is for you!" Mirai handed the last piece in his hand to Kirisaki.

Kirisaki put down the coffee in his hand, looking surprised.

"And my share?"

Future nodded and said, "You are an indispensable member of our GUYS team, so of course you have a share of the amulet!"

Kirisaki really didn't expect that he would have a share in the amulet made in the future.

He took the amulet from the future. It was a bracelet. The round beads on the bracelet were delicate and smooth, and felt cool when rubbed.

Kirisaki nodded with satisfaction and put it on his wrist.

"In that case, thank you for your gift!"

Mirai seemed very happy to see Kirisaki put on the amulet right away.

"Instructor Kirisaki, as long as you like it."

At this moment, Assistant Officer Toriyama Shigekichi, who had just returned from a business trip, and his secretary Maru walked in from outside.

“This visit to the US National Defense Guard headquarters to see the latest technological achievements was truly an eye-opener!”

As soon as he walked through the door, Toriyama Shigekichi's voice was deliberately amplified by several decibels, drowning out the chatter of the crowd and reaching everyone's ears.

Toriyama Shigekichi raised his head slightly 45 degrees, with the corners of his mouth turned up, looking exactly like a crooked-mouthed dragon king, appearing very cocky and arrogant.

Secretary Maru was holding a photo frame in his hand. The photo in the frame showed two people giving a thumbs-up and smiling.

Secretary Wan deliberately pointed the photo to show everyone and said, "Yes, the leaders of the headquarters even took a photo for us as a souvenir! Even the cadres of the headquarters look at you differently!"

Shigekichi Toriyama laughed heartily, enjoying it very much, but he kept saying, "No, no, no!"

Secretary Wan immediately flattered him: "Assistant, after your trip abroad, your temperament has become more profound!"

"You must have learned a lot of knowledge you had never seen before and seen a lot of cutting-edge technology abroad, which made you even more unfathomable despite your already profound knowledge!"

This is exactly what Toriyama Shigekichi fell for. Upon hearing this, the corners of his mouth almost stretched to his ears.

Captain Sakamizu was already familiar with Shigekichi Toriyama's temper and character.

He stood up from his seat and said to Toriyama Shigekichi with a smile, "Assistant Officer, you're back?"

Shigekichi Toriyama immediately seemed to be honored and responded, "Captain Sakamizu, I'm back! Oh, I didn't expect that a week would pass in the blink of an eye while I was on a business trip. Captain Sakamizu, I miss you so much in the United States!"

"If you miss me, you can call me!" Captain Sashui responded.

Then he pretended to be confused and muttered to himself: "I don't know if my phone is out of payment or if domestic and foreign calls cannot be connected normally. Why haven't I received any calls from you this week?"

The smile on Toriyama Shigekichi's face froze, and he immediately looked embarrassed.

He was just being polite, why did you take it seriously?

Embarrassing! So embarrassing that I wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

Then he looked around and inadvertently saw the photo of the GUYS team on the table.

His attention was instantly drawn to it.

“This… this is…” Toriyama Shigekichi picked up the photo and looked at it carefully with wide eyes.

"The cherry blossom forest, and the building in the background... Is that Nagoya?"

He walked quickly to Captain Poshui with the group photo in hand and asked, "Captain Poshui, did you go traveling while I was away?"

Sakumui glanced at the photo and explained, "It's not a trip. A monster appeared in Nagoya, so we went there to carry out a mission and took a family photo of the GUYS team."

Shigeyoshi Toriyama didn't listen to Sakamizu's explanations at all.

All the key information was automatically eliminated by him, and now there were only three words left in his mind.

Family portrait!

All the members of the GUYS team actually carried him on their backs...

Shot! A! Family! Happiness!

No! How can this be a family photo?!

Can it be called a family portrait without his assistants in the photo?

Toriyama Shigekichi was so angry that his body was shaking.

He pointed at the photo and said, "Captain Sasui, you call this a family portrait?"

"What about me? Am I not a member of the GUYS team as the assistant officer?"

"This is absolutely not okay, I want a retake!"

Kuze Teppei explained with some embarrassment: "Assistant, it's not that we don't allow you to be in the photo, it's because you were abroad during that period!"

Toriyama Shigekichi pouted, looking as aggrieved as a duck.

Suddenly, he thought of something and his eyes fell on the photo in Secretary Maru's hand.

Toriyama Shigekichi said to Maru, "Maru, I remember there is a software called PS, right?"

"Can you think of a way to remove the photo of the two of us and move it to this photo?"

"My idea should be feasible, right?"

When Wan saw the family photo, he suddenly felt unwell.

His ideas are similar to those of Shigekichi Toriyama.

Clearly neither of them are in the photo, so how can it be considered a family portrait?

This is absolutely not okay!

However, he did not dare to oppose openly like Toriyama Shigekichi.

Hearing the assistant's words at this moment, Maru's eyes lit up instantly.

"Yes, Assistant Officer, this technology does exist!"

The assistant officer was overjoyed.

"Then I'll leave it entirely to you!"

Secretary Wan put down the photo frame in his hand and immediately got busy.

But it wasn't until he actually got started that he realized PS was far from as simple as he had imagined.

He racked his brains but couldn't fit the photo of the two of them together into the family portrait.

Just as he was scratching his head, an idea suddenly came to his mind.

"Have it!"

Secretary Maru found a pair of scissors, took out a photo of him and his assistant, and cut out their silhouettes.

Then, he took the family photo frame and pasted the two silhouettes directly on the empty space in the photo.

It is worth mentioning that there is indeed some empty space on both sides of this family portrait, which is just enough to accommodate the silhouettes of two people.

Soon, Secretary Maru completed the task.

He showed the photo to Shigekichi Toriyama.

Although there are still some white edges in the silhouettes of the two people that have not been cut cleanly, it looks a bit abrupt when placed in the entire photo.

But after all, it was successfully integrated into the family portrait.

Toriyama Shigekichi was very satisfied.

"Family portrait, family portrait, if one is missing it won't be complete."

“This is a real family portrait!”

Satisfied, he put the photo frame back in place.

Everyone looked at it curiously and were a little surprised.

Although these two silhouettes still have some edges and corners that have not been trimmed properly, making them look a bit abrupt, if you don't look carefully, you really can't tell much difference.

Soon, Toriyama Shigekichi discovered the amulet in everyone's hand.

He blinked and asked, "What is this?"

"Could it be a souvenir you brought back from Nagoya?"

Future took the initiative to explain: "Assistant Officer, this is the amulet I gave to everyone."

The assistant officer immediately pursed his lips again and looked towards the future with a dim gaze.

"So that's how it is! In the future, I don't need it. I really don't need it at all. Do you understand me?"
