The legend of Tiga

Chapter 1967 Price
The clean and tidy room, with milky white strip lights embedded in the metal-painted walls and the glittering lights, looks very sci-fi.

But in this youthful room, there stood a white-haired old man with a wrinkled face and a thick smile. He looked at the person who came in and said, "Hori, long time no see."

"Ryosuke? What's wrong with you?"

The excitement and joy on Horii's face had not yet faded away before they were replaced by extreme shock. His already large eyes widened to the point where they could be as loud as copper bells.

This. Is this Ryosuke?

How can it be?

How could this be possible?

He and Ryosuke are old classmates of similar age. Horii is 37 years old this year and just seems not as energetic as before. But the man in front of him not only has a head full of white hair without a single bit of black, but also has loose and wrinkled skin that looks like old tree bark, and even his back is rugged. He would look young if he were in his 70s or 80s.

How could this be Ryosuke?

"Haha," Sanada Ryosuke smiled, held onto the table and slowly sat down, saying softly, "Everyone will become like this."

"But. But you. You." Horii was trembling so much that he couldn't even utter a complete sentence. His brain was completely blank from what he saw and he almost lost the ability to think.

"I took a shortcut, so I arrived at the destination earlier than you."

Sanada Ryosuke said cruel words with a smile, but it made Horii almost cry.

From childhood to adulthood, I have never seen such a good agent.

He looked old and frail, as if a gust of wind could blow him down. However, what made Horii even more uncomfortable than his physical weakness was Ryosuke's current state. He no longer had the unwillingness to fall behind that he had in the past.

Thinking back to when we met in the new development zone a few years ago, Ryosuke could still recall the breath-holding competition he lost to Horii when they were little. This shows how competitive he was, wanting to be the first in everything, and would feel very uncomfortable if he fell behind others. But now, not only has his appearance become like an old man, but his mentality has also become like an old man, without any of his former vigor.

this.
What happened to make Ryosuke become what he is now in just a few years?

But Sanada Ryosuke seemed not to notice Horii's shocked expression, and continued to talk to himself: "I heard that you have started a family and have a pair of children. That's great. Your life is complete."

"Yeah," Horii nodded stiffly, then quickly unzipped his clothes, carefully took out a photo, held it in front of Sanada Ryosuke, and said, "The older one is six years old, and the younger one is four years old."

Sanada Ryosuke raised his hand, trying to catch the photo, but put it down again after raising it halfway. He just looked at it with cloudy eyes for a while before saying, "That's great, that's great."

"."

Horii didn't know what to say for a moment. He wanted to comfort him but was afraid to show off like he did before, because he had a son and a daughter and a happy family, but Sanada Ryosuke was not only as weak as an old man, but also alone.

Because he attended Sayaka's wedding two years ago, and the groom.
It's not Ryosuke.

Even though they had feelings for each other back then, Ryosuke has not been heard from since then, and even Horii couldn't find out, not to mention that this was just Sayaka, a researcher.
After a long silence, Sanada Ryosuke leaned back and leaned against the back of his chair, his eyes wandering as if he was looking at the light strip on the ceiling, and said, "Hori, in fact, it is not so good to strive to be the first in everything. Sometimes it is not bad to fall behind a little, because then you have time to do other things.

人生
In fact, you should enjoy it slowly. "

"Ryosuke."

Horii opened his mouth, but his throat seemed to be blocked by a huge rock, making him unable to speak. His eyes felt dry and wet.

Such words were totally not what the Ryosuke in his memory could say. Now hearing these words and looking at Ryosuke like this, Horii felt extremely uncomfortable.

Striving to be the best in everything, spending all his energy and time on striving to be the best, so the only thing left in life is striving to be the best. What's even more tragic is that now Ryosuke is not even qualified to talk about the word "slowly".

After Sanada Ryosuke sighed for a few words, he took a deep breath, cheered himself up, and returned to his previous smiling face. He said, "I'm going to enjoy myself next. You can work hard slowly. Raising a child is not an easy task. It takes a lot of time and energy."

As he spoke, Sanada Ryosuke held onto the table and tried to stand up tremblingly. His shaky appearance made Horii subconsciously reach out for him, but Sanada Ryosuke waved his hand to refuse, causing Horii's hand to stop in mid-air before silently withdrawing it.

At this moment, Horii saw a little bit of Sanada Ryosuke's past, and he would not let him help even if he needed it.

It took Ryosuke Sanada almost ten seconds to stand up, which Horii could do in one second. Beads of sweat oozed out of his forehead. Then he picked up the crutches beside him and walked out slowly, saying as he walked, "I'll go first. It's enough for me to meet you and know that you have a good life, haha."

When he reached Horii, he raised his hand with great effort, patted Horii's shoulder weakly, and continued to walk out.

Horii didn't move or look back. He just stood there, listening to the sound of Sanada Ryosuke's crutches tapping on the ground gradually fading away until the automatic door closed.

In an instant, tears fell!

His shoulders were shaking violently and tears were falling like rain.

It's extremely sad.

Because he was about to lose a friend, a friend he had grown up with.

He clearly had a bright future and a wonderful life, but he lost to the darkness in his heart.

Once you make a mistake, you will have to pay for it for your whole life.

Horii felt sorry for him and was sad that he was leaving, but she didn't dare to show it in front of him. Even though both of them knew it, she tried hard not to let Ryosuke see her tears, just to maintain Ryosuke's pathetic self-esteem.

After a long while, Horii heard footsteps and stopped behind him. Then he patted the shoulder where Ryosuke had just patted with a warm hand, and then said, "He wrote down all his experiences and feelings about Ebron cells over the years, as well as his previous research on Ebron cells. Because of him, many people have a deeper understanding of the harm of Ebron cells."

The description in words is never as shocking as the actual situation.

No matter what attitude people had towards Ebron cells before, after seeing with their own eyes that Sanada Ryosuke, who was not even 40 years old, now looked like an old man, they were left with a deep impression in their hearts, and they also knew more intuitively how terrible the harm of Ebron cells was.

It really goes like the saying goes, it’s better to see it once than to say it a thousand times.

Horii raised his hand to wipe away his tears, turned around, looked at Chiba Makoto with red eyes, then bent down and bowed deeply, saying: "Thank you!
Thanks to you, Ryosuke had a few years to overcome the darkness in his heart."

It was because Ultraman Tiga cleared the Ebron cells in Sanada Ryosuke's body that Sanada Ryosuke did not die on the spot. With these few years, he stopped, thought, and savored the past, and finally got rid of the "halo" that had been shrouding him and weighing on him for a long time.

Maybe it's a little late, but.
You finally let it go, didn't you?
Even if it is the last moment of your life, it is better than never letting go or figuring it out in your whole life.

So, Horii Yoshisuke said this several years late.

Thank you!

Chiba Makoto didn't say anything, but patted Horii's shoulder again and walked out, leaving Horii to sort out his curiosity before leaving the reception room.

Although there were still traces of tears on her face and her eyes were still red, she was no longer out of control.

Instead of asking where Ryosuke Sanada had gone, he directly talked about the Ebron alien beast that had caused such a commotion at TPC.

After Nakajima Tsutomu submitted his report, Director Fukami convened a staff meeting and immediately organized multiple investigations and verifications to confirm that there were indeed remnants of Ebron cells and that there was a rat infected with Ebron cells in the underground of the metropolis.

TPC attached great importance to it and organized a large amount of manpower and material resources to search for this Ebron alien beast at all costs and make sure to destroy it.

Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Horii. After all, he was no longer a member of the Victory Team. Now he has transferred to the scientific research department and is taking the lead in building the cosmic network with PWI. However, Sanada Ryosuke's matter has always been a thorn, which made Horii strongly demand to join in and contribute his own strength to completely eliminate the Ebron cells.

Yes, it means completely eliminating the Ebron cells.

After Ryosuke Sanada appeared at the General Headquarters, the staff meeting reached a consensus at an unprecedented speed, that is, Ebron cells must be viewed more cautiously and must be controlled with strict measures. Some radicals even proposed destroying all Ebron cells.

Even the most conservative police department did not immediately oppose this proposal. Instead, they believed that it should be carefully considered based on the overall situation and the future, and that judgments should not be made based on temporary issues.

Obviously, some people still have certain fantasies and expectations about Ebron cells, and are unwilling to destroy the Ebron cells, which can be called a "big killer", but they also agree to take more stringent control measures to guard against them and ensure that Ebron cells are preserved for the future.

The reason is very simple. The reason for studying and preserving Ebron cells is, firstly, that they can create giant organisms to be used as biological weapons, and secondly, they hope to develop human strengthening drugs from them, thereby greatly improving the physical fitness of the human body and even prolonging life.

But the appearance of Sanada Ryosuke directly shattered the second expectation. This was not prolonging life at all, it was clearly sucking bones and marrow, and in just a few years, a strong young man was turned into this dying state.

Even if it is possible to achieve the expectation in the future, it will definitely take a long time judging from the situation. Since I can't use it, why take the risk?
Therefore, even some people who have high hopes for Ebron cells believe that research on Ebron cells should not be restarted in the short term and that it should be more strictly controlled.

It is said that, privately, Chief of Staff Nanyun even gloated, "Whoever caused the Ebron cells to leak out will be in big trouble this time."

In fact, everyone knows that the person who can quietly obtain Ebron cells and support the research is definitely not an unknown person, but must have a very high status and power. But no matter what, he will not be pleased in the future, and even if he is not driven out, he will have to pay a heavy price.

While the top brass were holding various meetings, the Super Victory Team's command room was also busy formulating a plan to annihilate the Ebron Alien.

Horii, who regained his composure and reason, immediately activated his clever brain and brainstormed with Nakajima Tsutomu, starting to think of ways to find the Ebron alien beast and then completely destroy it with heavy firepower.

"According to the relevant data retained by the Space Development Bureau and the information provided by Ryosuke, the infection of the host by Ebron cells is divided into stages, and the desire for electricity in different stages is also different, so we can make an article based on this point."

Nakajima Tsutomu nodded in agreement and asked Midorikawa Mai to use a supercomputer to calculate a curve chart of electricity demand at different stages.

Horii pointed to one of the curves that suddenly rose and said, "At this stage, ordinary transmission lines can't meet the demand at all, so we must find a power station."

"But it's only a mouse?"

Yumimura Ryo expressed surprise, saying that a mouse could find a power station like a human.
Horii straightened up and said meaningfully: "Don't underestimate the hunting instinct of living things."

"So, we have to make a plan around the power station." Kibi Tsunade's brows were almost wrinkled. This was not easy to deal with. If you were not careful, it might cause great damage. After all, this was high voltage electricity. If you connected the wrong wire, it could cause an extremely terrible explosion.

"Actually, we can set a trap." Horii pointed at the solar power transmission station on the map that was the closest and largest to the metropolis. This was a new facility built after the Gazot incident that received space microwaves and converted them into electricity. It was responsible for supplying 43% of the metropolis' electricity.

"As long as the metropolitan area is the only place with sufficient electricity, the Ebron alien beast will have no choice." Nakajima Tsutomu's eyes lit up and he immediately understood Horii's point.

"That's right. It can only come here at that time." Horii slapped the map and said, "Then we can find a way to completely eliminate it."

"This will take time to prepare." Kibi Tsunade nodded, agreeing with this approach in principle, but it would require a detailed plan. After all, this was a metropolis with a combined population of 40 million in the urban and suburban areas.

Once a major power outage occurs, the impact will be huge, so advance notice and preparations must be made so that the power outage can be carried out in an orderly manner. Otherwise, there will be a big mess.

If we want to make it this big, even the staff meeting would not dare to make a decision, and we must hold a larger-scale meeting.
