Chapter 153 Seeing is Not Believing
After Komon returned to the Night Raid Team, he was unsurprisingly investigated by TLT's top brass.
What he had said earlier about the Silver Giant saving him was taken seriously by the top management.
Also summoned for questioning with him were the captain of the night attack team, Hekura Eisuke.
At this moment, three senior executives were sitting in the conference room, questioning Gu Men.
"Team Komon, you said you've encountered a silver giant before. Is that true?"
Gu Men replied without hesitation: "Yes, it was on the day I was assigned to work here."
Another person picked up Gu Men's report and asked, "You said that the Silver Giant saved your life. Is that true?"
"Yes."
"you sure?"
Gu Men said with a determined look: "I am absolutely sure that if the Ultra Warriors had not appeared at that time, I would have been eaten by the alien beast."
"Ultra Warrior?" The three commanders asked together, as if they were unfamiliar with the term that suddenly came out of his mouth. Even Captain Hekura next to him couldn't help but turn his head to look at him.
"When I saw the giant yesterday, I somehow thought of this name..." Komon explained.
The three commanders fell into thought, and after a moment of silence, they turned their attention to Wakura Eisuke.
"Captain Wakura, what do you think?"
"Is the Silver Giant a friend or foe to us humans?"
Captain Hekura sighed, "To be honest, I don't know either."
"But," Hekura said, a hint of worry in his eyes, "if that giant is our enemy, we won't be able to annihilate it with our current combat power."
"I think further investigation and research is necessary."
The powerful missile attack hit the giant, but failed to cause any obvious damage to it. Thinking back to what happened before, Captain Hekura couldn't help but feel a little scared.
The three senior officers nodded, seemingly agreeing with Hekura's point of view.
Whether the other party is an enemy or a friend still needs further consideration. Otherwise, if humans face such a terrifying combat force, the consequences will be unimaginable.
After the investigation and questioning, Komon and Wakura walked in the corridor.
Gu Men was a little confused by the captain's previous answer: "Captain, do you really not trust the Ultra Warriors?"
Captain Hekura shrugged, expressing his helplessness: "The other party is still unknown to us. At present, there is not enough evidence to determine whether we can trust him."
Gu Men was a little anxious, and his tone couldn't help but rise a little: "But Captain, the two survivors at the scene looked like they were rescued by the Ultra Warriors."
"Heh, maybe they're just fighting over food!"
A cold voice came from the opposite side, and Nishijo Nagi appeared not far away, her face full of confidence.
"That guy is also a monster, so this explanation might be more reasonable."
Saijo Nagi walked up to Komon, staring straight into his eyes, her tone leaving no room for doubt.
“What is happening before our eyes may not necessarily be reality.”
"Think about it with your simple mind."
After saying that, she poked Gu Men's forehead hard with her finger, and then walked back with disdain.
Feeling the other party's mocking attitude, Gu Men was a little indignant: "What does this mean?"
As he said this, he left Captain Kazukura aside and followed Saijo's footsteps.
Only after following all the way to the Night Raid Team's shooting training room did Nishijo Nagi stop.
"Please tell me what it means that what you see is not necessarily true?"
Nishijo Nagi did not answer his question, but directly picked up the training gun next to her.
"Bang bang bang!"
Several shots were fired in succession, and each bullet hit the bull's eye accurately.
"So amazing..." Even Gu Men admired his superb shooting skills.
But just as he finished speaking, Nishijo Nagi, who had finished shooting, pointed the gun at Komon!
"You, what are you going to do?!"
Nishijo Nagi walked closer and closer, and only stopped when the muzzle of the gun in her hand was against Komon's chest.
"How can you trust others so easily? Whether they are enemies or friends, you won't know until the last moment!"
With the gun pointed at him, Gu Men suddenly felt extremely nervous: "Could it be...that the Night Raid Team will attack their own members?"
Nishijo Nagi smiled, then suddenly pulled the trigger.
Gu Men subconsciously twisted his body to dodge, but heard a prompt sound from the gun.
"No bullets! No bullets!"
"Remember, always be aware of the number of remaining bullets." Nishijo Nagi put down the gun and left.
Gu Men was shocked and confused by her rash action, but he still wanted to clarify the doubts in his mind, so he hurriedly followed her.
"Wait a minute, you haven't answered my question yet!"
"What does it mean that everything you see is not necessarily true?"
Nishijo Nagi felt a little helpless. It seemed that if she didn't explain clearly, this person would probably keep pestering her.
Besides, he will come into contact with this aspect sooner or later.
"Then come with me, and you'll understand when you see it with your own eyes."
After saying that, she took Gu Men out of the base and drove to somewhere.
After arriving at the destination, Gu Men got out of the car and looked around at the surrounding scene, but couldn't help feeling very familiar.
"Uh, this place is..."
The place in front of him was exactly on the road where he was attacked by the alien beast and was rescued by the silver giant.
"Why did you bring me here?"
Saijo Nagi nodded and pointed to the distance: "Look over there."
Gu Men looked around and saw a group of people in black clothes on the side of the road in the distance. They were throwing flowers down the cliff with sad expressions, as if they were paying their respects.
"They are the families of those who were eaten by the alien beasts."
Gu Men couldn't understand this scene: "But why are they paying their respects at the bottom of the valley?"
Nishijo Nagi's expression was calm as she explained, "You were still in training at the time, so you might not have known. The incident, in which thirteen people, including the driver and passengers, were killed, has been treated as a bus falling off a cliff."
"A cliff fall accident?" Gu Men was puzzled.
Nishijo Nagi continued, "It's not just this incident. All those killed by alien beasts were declared to have died in accidents, and the families of the victims are unaware of the truth."
After this explanation, Gu Men finally understood what it meant. His expression suddenly brightened: "In other words, the truth behind these events has been covered up!"
"Needless to say? If the world knew the truth, it would cause chaos, so we all eliminated the alien beasts in secret."
"Everything you see is not necessarily true, and this is the answer."
Gu Men seemed to understand somewhat, but still felt something was wrong: "What about the witnesses? They can't possibly distort the facts, right?"
Nishijo Nagi sneered: "Witnesses? They can't tell the truth."
"The organization has a department that specializes in dealing with this kind of thing. They will erase all their memories related to the alien beasts."
Hearing this, Gu Men suddenly felt a little scared.
He vaguely remembered that Commander Matsunaga had said something similar to him on his first day at the base.
"If you regret joining, you can return to your original life by simply forgetting the entire incident. In other words, erase your memory."
At one point, Komon even thought that Commander Matsunaga was joking with him.
But now it seems that everything is true, they really can erase other people's memories!
Just as Imon was thinking, Saijo Nagi next to him suddenly turned her head and looked behind the two of them with a vigilant expression.
Her intuition told her that something was hiding in the dark and watching this place.
