A secret research institute on the outskirts of Z city.
"Huh? Did Mosquito Girl lose? Or was she defeated by someone else's punch?"
Genos used his wrist on his cheek, tilted his head, and looked at the virtual screen in front of him, which was full of photos of S-class heroes and some in-depth bioscientific analyses.
"Forget it, she is just an experimental product anyway. It's a pity that King's blood was not collected, and another precious sampling opportunity was missed. I don't know when we will be able to study King's genes. The wait is really melancholy."
"On the 28th, I remember that we used the surveillance system of our collaborators to keep an eye on Mosquito Girl, right? Send me the photos of Mosquito Girl's battle and death. I want to take a closer look at the final situation of our experimental subjects. This needs to be recorded. It’s on record!”
"Okay, sir."
Hidden in the shadows, a man who looked exactly like the young man, wearing an ancient white prison uniform with the number "28" marked on his chest, nodded to show his understanding.
clang!
After a moment, the virtual screen beeped slightly, and a data transmission progress bar popped up on it. After the beep, the progress bar filled up, and several clear photos of the Mosquito Girl's battle immediately jumped out.
The street filled with lava - the scene where Mosquito Girl's blood splattered on the high-rise building - the damaged battlefield - the still shot of Saitama reaching out and hitting Mosquito Girl!
Genos looked at the last photo of Saitama and asked doubtfully: "Huh? This guy... why is he naked? At least wear some underwear!"
No. 28 replied calmly: "I don't know."
"Okay." Genos looked at Saitama's naked body with interest and said softly: "It looks like a good sample. I hope to get him for experiments, as if I didn't get the king gene. Compensate for it, even if it's for hard work, I still want to study his body." He raised his glasses, his eyes were deep, and he smiled slightly: "Send an envoy to invite him back, and invite him to come to our Evolution House for experiments. , oh no, I should say... being a guest, haha."
"clear."
No. 28 nodded and opened the information in his hand, which recorded the new human elites who had succeeded in various experiments of the Evolution House, including Asura, the Beast King, the Armored Gorilla, etc.
He searched for it, checked a few elite warriors on the information, and showed it to Genos, "Sir, what do you think of them?"
Kinos looked at the elites on the list, "Beast King, Armored Gorilla, Mantis Man, Earth Dragon, Frog Man, Slug..."
No. 28 explained: "The slug has telepathic ability and can track the bald head. The earth dragon has the ability to drill into the earth and can catch it off guard and track..." to introduce the rationality of this lineup.
After Jinos pondered for a moment, he nodded, "Well, that's it. Find our bald sample as soon as possible and invite him back as a 'guest'. I can't wait to operate on him."
clang!
At this moment, a photo popped up on the virtual screen again. In the photo, King was holding a camera and was concentrating on shooting.
"Huh? Wait a minute? King?"
When Jinos saw the king appearing, his wise eyes burst into flames, "Why did he appear on the battlefield?"
No. 28 analyzed: "The battle is so fierce. With the king's strength, he will naturally notice it, so it is not surprising that he rushed to the scene."
Kinos pointed to the camera in King's hand and asked, "Then... what's this thing about?"
"Record, perhaps record the battle situation between the mechanical cyborg and the bald man. As an important member of the Hero Association, King is one of the few S-class heroes with a strong sense of justice. Perhaps, he discovered that these two people are potential materials, so I’m going to recommend it to the Hero Association, and the battle scenes are the best recommendation letter.”
"Is that so? Then we need to speed up the time. If these two people are caught by the Heroes Association, things will become troublesome and complicated."
"Understood."
…
City A, headquarters of the Heroes Association.
"What's the situation with the mosquito plague in City Z?"
Xiqi frowned and waited for Maria's report. As the director of the association's operations department, he was usually not in the war room. He was left to the deputy director Jess, Colson, who managed hero information, and Maria, who managed monster information. Only when ghosts appeared They will only come forward to preside over disasters of magnitude and above.
The outbreak of mosquito plague in Z City is too strange and strange. So far, it has caused a lot of casualties, and the death of a large number of livestock has caused huge property losses. According to his understanding, some small mosquitoes in the mountains around Z City The village has reached the point where it is almost impossible to make a living due to the death of livestock.
"A large number of mosquito swarms are gathering in the uninhabited area of Z City. The reason is unknown."
Maria stared at the data displayed on the computer and reported to Xiqi truthfully.
"Can you contact the king?"
"Mr. King is rushing to the no-man's land of Z city."
"Well, I hope the king can find the reason for the mosquito swarm and take the opportunity to eliminate the mosquito swarm."
Waiting is a very difficult thing. Xiqi has been the director of the operations department for a long time and has long been accustomed to waiting. Waiting for the reasons why the weirdos appear, waiting for the battle situation of the heroes to eliminate the weirdos, waiting for complaints from citizens, etc.
However, today, before he got the result he wanted, another call came in that scared him so much that he almost dropped his phone.
Yali, the only female super-rich man in City Z, is missing and is suspected to have been abducted by a criminal with a reward on his head.
Yali is not only a rich man in Z City, but also one of the important directors of the Heroes Association. Over the years, she has invested a large amount of operating funds in the Heroes Association, which has a decisive impact on the development of the Heroes Association.
It can be said that without Yali, the Heroes Association's logistics will suffer from insufficient "blood supply", and funds will suddenly become tight, entering an era of poverty and careful budgeting.
Xiqi's face darkened and he yelled into his cell phone: "Hey, shouldn't this kind of missing person case be taken over by the police? What's the matter with you reporting it to our association? The duty of our association is to eliminate weirdos and resist disasters. Find People are the prerogative of the police, do you think the heroes of our association are better than the police in solving crimes?”
That's stupid. Heroes are a group that fights with weirdos in an upright manner. How can they know how to solve crimes? Well, it seems that there is a hero who knows a little bit about solving crimes. The child emperor known as Tong Holmes, um, who is Holmes? Oops, that's wrong. The question is, should an S-class hero be involved in the missing persons case? Alas, this is overkill. If the public knows about it, I'm afraid letters of complaint will rain down on the association's suggestion box.
Unfortunately, his opinion no longer matters in this matter. The association's board of directors directly ordered him to send capable heroes to rescue Yali.
The good news is that he finally got the latest news about the mosquito plague: King eliminated the mosquito swarm, and it is suspected that he used the Purgatory Unparalleled Explosive Heat Wave Cannon!
King's elimination of the mosquito plague was an expected thing, but he didn't have any emotional fluctuations. What troubled him was—
"Which heroes should be allowed to save people?"
