Chapter 303 Analysis of Reasons
The relaxed atmosphere in the Victory Team's command room at the TPC Far East headquarters was broken by an urgent communication.
According to the medical center, Lin Yeming, an advisor who had just returned to base to rest after dealing with the Cosmic Snail incident, suddenly developed unexplained physiological abnormalities during a routine physical examination, accompanied by brief dizziness. He has been transferred to the special intensive care unit for observation.
Upon receiving the news, the command center fell silent.
Everyone's faces showed worry.
Lin Yeming was not only an important tactical advisor, but also a partner who fought alongside them and guided them through many crises.
“Senior Yeming, he…” Daigo was the first to stand up, his brows furrowed.
He recalled Lin Yeming's resolute charge into the battlefield in the White Snow during the previous battle, and the undisguised exhaustion on his face when he returned.
"He must have exhausted himself trying to intercept that giant snail!" Lina said with certainty and concern.
They all saw the timer flashing violently as Ultraman Tiga tried to withstand the impact.
Then, Lin Yeming saw Ultraman Naga appear, and suddenly fell into a coma.
However, no malfunction was detected on the Snow White.
“Let’s go see him!” Xincheng suggested, and everyone agreed.
Just as they were about to set off, Megumi Kijima had the Science Bureau staff protect the rainbow shell.
Before its function is fully understood, we should protect them for now.
Of course, it must be kept away from the base for protection.
Outside the special intensive care unit, the Victory team members saw through the observation window that Lin Yeming was sitting on the hospital bed, talking with the attending physician and Director Sawai who had rushed over after hearing the news.
His face was rosy, but he looked to be in good spirits, as if he was trying his best to explain something.
After a while, Director Sawai and the doctor came out.
Director Sawai, with a serious expression, said to the Victory team members who had gathered around, "No organic lesions were found in Consultant Yoru's body, but many of his physiological indicators are indeed fine; in fact, you could say he's very healthy. He insists that he's just overworked and needs some rest." The attending physician added, "However, from a medical perspective, we recommend further observation and rest to rule out any potential risks."
At this moment, Lin Yeming, who was in the ward, also saw his teammates outside the window. He smiled at them, waved, and indicated that he was alright.
Director Sawai glanced back at Lin Yeming, then gave instructions to Captain Megumi and the team: "I have spoken with Advisor Yeming. Given his recent involvement in handling high-intensity anomalies, which has taken a heavy toll on his physical and mental health, I, as the director, am forcing him to take a week off for a comprehensive medical check-up and sufficient rest. During this period, Captain Megumi will be in full charge of the Victory Team's daily affairs, and Advisor Yeming's rest should not be disturbed except in major emergencies."
The order, though imbued with concern, was not to be questioned.
Everyone understood that this was both to protect Lin Yeming's personal health and possibly to reflect the cautious attitude of TPC's higher-ups towards this advisor who possessed special information and abilities. "Understood!" Captain Megumi responded, standing at attention.
"Captain Megumi, you must take this matter seriously regarding what happened to Advisor Yoru."
"During this period, update the physical data of the Victory Team members."
"Don't be afraid of the trouble, investigate in detail."
After saying that, he left.
The team members went into the ward to visit Lin Yeming.
Seeing that he was indeed in good spirits, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. "Yeming, are you really alright? We were so worried."
Daigo asked with concern, as he felt things weren't that simple.
Lin Yeming smiled and reassured everyone in a relaxed tone: "I'm really just a little tired and haven't recovered yet. It's probably because analyzing the data was too mentally taxing, plus running around, my body is protesting. The director is making a mountain out of a molehill. I think a day or two of rest will be no problem at all."
However, the observant Horii noticed that although Lin Yeming spoke casually, there seemed to be a subtle hint of seriousness in the depths of his eyes, which was not entirely due to the relaxation after exhaustion.
Moreover, his fingers, resting on the edge of the bed, were tapping lightly unconsciously, as if he were deep in thought.
Xincheng patted his chest and said, "Don't worry about resting! We've got the team covered! Whatever monsters come, we'll take them all down!" Deputy Captain Zongfang also said in a deep voice, "Take good care of yourself; health is the foundation of everything. Don't worry about the team's affairs."
Lina then asked thoughtfully, "Is there anything we can help you with? Or would you like something to eat? I'll bring it to you."
Lin Yeming smiled and politely declined everyone's offers of help: "Thank you everyone, I'm really fine. I just need to sleep quietly for a few days. You all go ahead and get busy, don't let me delay your work." After the brief visit, the team members left the ward. Walking down the corridor, Horii couldn't help but whisper to Munakata: "Vice Captain, I feel like Advisor Yeming seems... to have something on his mind."
His recovery was too fast; it was somewhat unusual. Zong Fang nodded without saying much, but his eyes were thoughtful.
Captain Megumi has already begun arranging physical examinations for all staff. The director's orders must be strictly followed, and it is indeed necessary to eliminate any potential risks.
The ward fell silent again.
Lin Yeming's relaxed smile gradually faded. He walked to the window and looked at the occasional flight paths of planes passing over the TPC base's takeoff and landing pad in the distance. His eyes became sharp and deep.
What concerned him was not his physical discomfort, but the intelligence mentioned in the system—the clandestine activities of the Kirieloids.
The plot has already shifted because of his appearance, and he can no longer rely entirely on the memories of the "original work".
He quickly pieced together the clues: the Kirieloids' goal was to create chaos and replace Ultraman as the "savior" in the eyes of humanity.
What they crave most is a powerful vessel for power.
The Ruins of R'lyeh do indeed harbor the Dark Lord Gatanothor and many more giant statues, but it is also filled with the ultimate darkness that even the Kyrielords fear. They dare not, and may not, be able to, touch that forbidden place at this stage.
So, excluding R'lyeh, and considering the unusual energy fluctuations he had vaguely sensed from the direction of Kumamoto City, as well as the activities of that mad scientist Masaki Keigo in this area... the only possibility has surfaced, and it is highly probable—the giant stone statue of light that is of the same origin as Tiga, which should have been discovered and attempted to be used by Masaki Keigo underground in Kumamoto City, has likely already been found by the Kirieloids!
This deduction sent a chill down Lin Yeming's spine.
If the Kirieloids were to gain control of the statue and use their evil power to transform it into a dark giant, the consequences would be unimaginable!
We must confirm the situation as soon as possible!
