Ultra: Heroes Don't Ask Where They Come From

Some time has passed since the Ace rescue operation.

An inexplicable program was playing on TV, with the light and shadow changing in varying sizes, forming one complete and continuous image after another.

It's not that the show is that good, but as long as the TV is turned on, the whole room seems to be no longer so quiet. Ogasawara Aiko was on the sofa, staring at the TV blankly.

The floor was clean, the table was tidy, and the sun had not yet risen completely, so the slightly dim blue sunlight was floating in the room.

The whole world is gradually waking up. It won't be long before the streets are bustling with people and cars, and subways are running back and forth like spider webs under the ground of big cities.

The hot temperature gradually revives on the surface of the city, just like a giant beast full of vitality gradually waking up from hibernation. People are like circulating blood vessels, constantly moving red blood cells to supply the city.

And now, the temperature is still a little cold.

She woke up in a daze in the darkness of the early morning. At that time, she heard the sound of raindrops hitting the ground and falling from above. She couldn't help but lie sideways on the bed and tighten her body, but still felt a chill flowing through her spirit.

When I woke up again, the rain had stopped and the house was quiet, like an abandoned cottage in a fairy tale.

Although I have gotten used to my usual life, I still feel like Cinderella after midnight.

In the fairy tale, the magic on Cinderella will disappear after twelve o'clock. The beautiful crystal shoes, the witch's pumpkin carriage, the luxury and magnificence are like the illusion of a one-night banquet, which will turn into drifting dust as the wind blows, and then all that will be left is the cold air.

That person is still not at home.

I curled up on the sofa, hugged my knees and watched the program on TV. I didn't know when the news about the Tucker team came on TV.

The general meaning is that it is about the last time a monster appeared in the city.

Some experts commented on the effectiveness of the Tucker team's operations, its social impact, and what the Tucker team should do in the future. The girl saw the man's face flash by in the one or two seconds of the Tucker team's combat footage.

"Who are you anyway?"

She couldn't help but hug her knees and asked softly.

Summer is almost over.

Aiko Ogasawara slowly got up and cooked for herself.

The man's kitchen was very empty. He added a lot of things to it after she came. The refrigerator, which was originally only filled with various drinks, was now filled with all kinds of ingredients. The variety was so complete and neat that it didn't seem like they were for eating, but rather for looking at.

When he cooked, most of the dishes were Chinese, but apart from the common ones, the other dishes could only be described as mediocre, so Aiko Ogasawara soon started cooking for herself and trying a variety of dishes.

She experimented with various Japanese dishes, and learned to cook Chinese dishes for his taste. Although he didn't know how to cook, he would occasionally guide her seriously, saying that real Chinese dishes are not prepared in this way, and that he was learning Japanese-style Chinese food. She also tried hard to correct him clumsily. Sometimes the girl would wonder why men like Chinese food so much and are so familiar with it.

The girl toasted two slices of bread in a toaster, fried an egg herself, put it on the dining table, put the egg on the bread, spread ketchup on it, covered it with bread, and ate it in small bites.

This is her breakfast.

——What are ordinary people?

Ordinary people can be powerful among ordinary people. They can use what they have built to protect themselves when facing the chaos of the world. They can be both weak and strong.

But in the end, there will always be something powerless.

Sometimes, powerless things will not happen to you, and sometimes you can only stand there in a daze facing the tragedy that is too grand, unable to move.

The girl suddenly wanted to go out for a walk.

The girl left home in the summer that was about to end. She had no friends to date. Although she felt sorry for him who had high hopes for her, there was nothing she could do. She could not find the motivation to make friends that she had in the past.

She walked to the subway, sat silently to the station, and got off silently.

As we walked along the road the sun began to grow brighter, but it was just the afterglow of summer.

Suddenly, she stopped. This was a residential area and she wanted to walk through here to catch the next tram, but she had to look back and stop.

There is a man's soul in front.

He actually looks no different from a normal person, but only when you look at his lower body can you see that the flesh starts to blur from his calves, and when it reaches the ground, there is almost no body. It looks like he is strangely suspended above the ground at the same height as when he was alive.

He will never be able to step on the ground, which is the right only for the living - to live in the world with feet on the ground.

The man's hand was resting on the electric pole standing on the roadside. Suddenly, as if he was aware of the girl's gaze, he turned around and looked at her. In the girl's opinion, although his appearance was flawless except for the small defect under his feet, the man had already revealed something fundamentally abnormal.

It was like the feeling of a hot torch, but the difference was that seeing the man was like seeing some kind of materialized emotion spreading. It was a palpable feeling of separation from the world, almost like air pressure.

The man looked at the girl expressionlessly, and then his body disappeared.

When the man completely disappeared, the girl exhaled and continued to move forward.

This is a rare situation -

Most of the time, he could not see this clear soul. What was more obvious was the black gas that emerged from various places, and sometimes a color behind people. This color changed according to different emotions. Blue was cold, red was passionate, and black was obviously malicious - it was like an emotional spectrum.

The girl continued walking, encountering a ghost was something she had not expected.

She continued on the tram for two more stops before arriving at her destination, the place she intended to see.

The roar of construction machines was endless as people carried cement and bricks back and forth, using scaffolding to build a basic skeleton and filling it with fillers.

The workers were silent but well-trained, like a team of soldiers. There were traces of ruins and broken buildings at their feet, but the scene before them was as lively as a crossroads with a constant flow of people.

The girl stretched out one hand and rubbed her arm. The sunlight shone on her body, but she did not feel any fear. She just stared blankly at the scene in front of her.

The tall building was broken into two pieces, the normal road surface was turned into debris, and the rubble was piled up into stones as high as two floors. There were also workers climbing and working on the stones.

This is where the monster appeared before.

"Little girl, stay away, this is a construction site."

"Yes, it is."

Ogasawara Aiko was a little further away, but when she looked back, the ruins had not changed at all. When she watched it on TV, she felt that it was like what happened in the canal on Mars. However, when she actually watched it, she was shocked by the scene.

That is violence that cannot be compared with everyday life, violence that ordinary people cannot resist.

Is that person always doing this kind of work...
