Chapter 23 The Monster Unworthy of Sympathy
The monster was eliminated, and the scattered villagers boldly approached the quarry, asking when the quarry could be quarried again, and were also concerned about the whereabouts of the missing miners, even though It turned into stone. At least we can provide proof so that we can have a funeral and then talk about compensation.
TPC people had to continue to explain that although the monster had been eliminated, it still needed to be confirmed to be safe before it could be opened. As for the miners
the staff didn’t know what to say, and it was so big There was an explosion, another monster came out of the cave, and three behemoths were tossing back and forth for a minute or two. The mine had long ago collapsed into a state of disarray. Looking for the missing miners would probably involve turning over several mountains.
This workload is so huge that it may take hundreds of people and hundreds of engineering vehicles several months to complete, but it may not be possible to complete it.
I can only respond casually and try my best to find someone. Anyway, if I don’t try my best, that’s it.
The Victory Team also landed on the ground, assisting the people of the police station in defending, waiting for follow-up troops to support them, and finally repairing Feiyan No. 1 or hoisting it back before leaving.
Getting together, the discussion was naturally about the giant that appeared for the third time. Lina said excitedly. She thanked the giant and received a response. She believed that the giant could understand human language and be able to communicate. Yes, Dagu was on the sidelines and agreed with Lina's opinion unconditionally.
The rest of the people couldn't say anything against it. Today, the giant saved Feiyan No. 1 and helped Feiyan No. 2 block the petrifying light. It would be really ungrateful to say that the other party is not a friend. .
"It would be great if we can communicate," Xincheng said excitedly: "The giant restrains the monster, and then we attack, so we are no longer afraid of the monster."
Lina was about to say something when she suddenly saw someone outside the TPC blockade holding a camera and filming something. Upon closer inspection, she saw that it was the guy who leaked secrets yesterday, causing TPC to be criticized for concealing the truth. She was immediately unhappy. said: "Why is that person here?"
"Who?" Everyone in the victory team followed Lina's line of sight and saw a young man carrying a big backpack taking pictures with a camera, as if he had seen something. The members of the victory team pointed their cameras at them.
"It's him." Horii recognized this boy as the climber who was in Tiga Land last time, but how did he end up on this island?
"Dagu, Xincheng, go over and ask." Zongfang ordered.
“Yes!”
Before leaving, Shinjo proudly said to Horii: "Look, I'm not the one who scares people."
"What do you mean?"
"Use Think about it in your head."
Chiba Makoto saw everyone in the victory team early, and according to the experience taught by Onoda, he replaced the camera with a new memory card before approaching the quarry to prevent important photos from being taken away, so he dared to be careless. Take pictures there.
In a good mood, Xincheng also greeted Qianye Cheng leisurely: "Why did you come here?"
Chiba Cheng shook the camera, pointed to the ID hanging on his body, and said: "I was looking for big news, but I saw even bigger news."
Xincheng came forward and took a look, He was very surprised and said: "You are actually a reporter?"
He became a reporter at such a young age. When he was this age, he was still flying around in the sky all day long in flight school. Such a comparison , seems to be better.
“Thanks to Melba, her photos allowed me to exchange for these things, so I heard that monsters once appeared on this island, so I ran over immediately. After all, this is exclusive news and the most valuable.”< br>
Hearing this, Dagu quickly asked: "I heard? Who did you hear it from?"
Chiba Makoto did not answer this question, but said in surprise: "You don't think Kakuma just appeared recently, do you?"
The outspoken Shinjo immediately said: "Isn't it right?" "Of course not," Chiba Cheng took out his notebook, opened the first page, and said, "The legend of Gakuma has been circulating on the island a long time ago. According to the memories of the old people, It is said that a long time ago, Kakuma was regarded as a guardian beast by the people on the island.
Because Kakuma only eats stones, humans and monsters have always lived together in peace. I have lived on this island for a long, long time."
Da Gu glanced at the notebook in Chiba Cheng's hand and asked, "Can I take a look?"
"You can take it away, but you have to make a copy for me. I will also use these to write a press release." Chiba Cheng said and handed it to Dagu.
Dago thanked him, turned it over, and browsed through the story called Jakuma.
Chiba Makoto looked at the fragments in the quarry and said: "Kakuma lived here before humans appeared on the island. Later humans moved to the island. The ancient people cherished The respect for nature and living things can coexist with Gakuma. But now, Gakuma has been wiped out by humans, and this island completely belongs to humans.”
New City. He looked at Chiba Makoto who was filled with emotion in surprise, how could he act like an old man at such a young age, and said: "You are not sympathizing with the monster, are you?"
The words were full of surprise, as if he had heard that An onion lover squats in the ground to protect green onions. He feels like a lunatic or a fool. Before, his legs were so frightened by the monster that his legs went weak. He sat on the ground, but now he sympathizes with the monster?
Even Da Gu raised his head, unable to understand the idea of "sympathizing with such a terrifying and huge monster".
Chiba Cheng turned his head to avoid Dagu's sight, looked at the half-excavated barren mountain, and said: "I am not sympathizing with the monsters, I am just lamenting the power of human beings, and such ancient creatures have been wiped out. "It's a monster." Xincheng emphasized: "We are protecting the residents of the island. This monster will turn animals into stones and then eat them. If we don't destroy him, the island will be destroyed." The residents on the island are in danger."
Chiba Cheng took the notebook handed over by Dagu, stuffed it into his backpack again, and said: "The residents on the island will thank you, and I will also send them to you. I wrote my thanks in the press release and said goodbye.”
After that, Chiba Cheng walked towards the dock with his backpack on his back. He wanted to leave here and go home to have a good rest. It was really too much. Tired.
Dagu looked at Chiba Makoto, who was walking with his back to them. Shinjo patted Dagu on the shoulder and said, "Let's go. I didn't expect anyone to feel sorry for the monster."
The two returned to Next to Munakata, he told the content of the inquiry just now, and Dagu also roughly told the content of the story captured by the camera on his helmet.
Lina also used PDI to call up Chiba Cheng's itinerary by plane, ship, and all the way to the island. After looking at the date, Lina said: "After Dagu and I left, he Come here.
Zongfang was looking at the notebook photos recorded by Dagu, and when he heard Lina’s words, he said: “It seems that it is necessary to investigate. "
Xincheng said from the side: "But I didn't expect that the monster would turn the animal into stone first and then eat it. Isn't this unnecessary? ”
Dagu made a baseless guess: "Maybe the taste will be better?"
"Who knows, it is a monster after all." Zongfang sighed and ordered the team to return to the base.
