Starting human body

"I don't think I've seen you before."

Because of the nature of the Shade people, Zena neither spoke nor changed his smile, and even the sound he made was very dull.

He doesn't look like someone from an insurance company.

"I am Gao Shuling, the owner of this cake shop."

Natsuki put away the business card, smiled and shook hands with Zena.

Zena was okay and remained expressionless, but Moe Aizaki was a little strange and was actually shaking when shaking hands.

"Are you afraid of me?" Xia Shu asked strangely.

He could feel the negative energy absorbed from Moe Aizaki.

"No, no!" Aizaki Moeya forced a smile, and the fingers hidden behind her back shook even more.

"Mr. Takaki," Zena briefly glanced inside the cake shop, pulled Aizaki Moya over and said goodbye first, "Our company has a wide range of business, please contact us if you need anything."

"Definitely," Xia Shu nodded and smiled, "The cake shop will probably open the day after tomorrow. If you two have time, you can come and join us. It will be 50% off on that day."

"50% off?!"

Aizaki Moya put her fear behind her in the blink of an eye, her eyes seemed to be shining, but before she could question her carefully, she was dragged out by Zena.

"What's wrong, Zena-senpai?" Moya Aizaki asked in confusion after returning to the car, "Aren't you going to investigate?"

Zena shook his head and said with doubtful eyes: "It's strange, the spaceman detection equipment doesn't work at all, it seems like it's really just an ordinary human being."

"Eh? No way?" Aizaki Moya said tangledly, "Then will we come the day after tomorrow?"

Zena didn't reply, just glanced at his partner lightly.

Call her timid. Sometimes she is very courageous. She also likes to rush to the front when going on missions. Call her bold, but she is always intimidated by the appearance of people from the universe.

"Please pay more attention here in the future and notify me in time if there is any situation." Zena drove onto the road.

"Understood!" Aizaki Moya saluted again, "I will always keep an eye on the cake shop!"

…

Natsuki watched the AIB agent car drive out of the shopping street on the second floor of the cake shop. When he was about to return to the light space, his eyes suddenly flashed, and then the figure of an elderly man appeared in his mind.

The old man's chest also had the light of the Litru Star. His eyes stopped at Natsuki for a moment, and then quickly moved to other places.

"Clairvoyance?" Xia Shu turned back and looked in the direction of the old man.

The Litru Star hosts all have different superpowers, showing the characteristics of a certain Ultra Warrior.

The old man who peeked at him just now has the "clairvoyance" of Ultra's father, which is a derivative of telepathy. He can see where he wants to see through perception.

The observation range is determined by the user's ability, and it is not impossible to see the entire universe.

Judging from the breath just now, this old man can at least see all over the earth.

Natsuki had a slight headache.

Generally speaking, the father of Ultra would not use this ability easily, let alone peek at the powerful at will, but the old man is just an ordinary earthling who accidentally obtained superpowers. He doesn't think too much at all. He just acts on his own. Interested in observing.

Fortunately, due to the power of his transcendent thoughts, his perception ability is strong, otherwise he would not have noticed that he was being spied on.

"It's probably just a coincidence that I saw you here."

Natsuki continued to pay attention to the old man, and when he sensed a bathhouse, his expression was subtle, but at the same time he felt relieved.

"Ellie, help me develop a virtual imaging system that prevents prying eyes."

"Okay, counselor."

Ellie's tone remained the same.

Although there is no problem with intelligence, the emotional aspect is still weird.

I don’t know if my emotional system has been damaged.

"In a while," Natsuki thought silently, "after Asakura Riku's underground base is unlocked, I will probably have accumulated enough robotics technology to repair Ellie at once."

"Any further instructions, counselor?" Ellie continued to ask.

"The new cake category...forget it, I'll just research it myself."

Natsuki returned to the kitchen, looking at the brand new oven and lost in thought.

He learned a lot of dessert categories in the previous time and space, including Kobe specialty cakes, but he ate too many and wanted to change the taste this time.

I don’t know since when, there are more and more types of cakes, such as fruit cakes, cheesecakes, mousse cakes... There are more and more creams, but the cakes themselves are getting less and less, and the more they eat, the more greasy they become.

“Then let’s have the original cake.”

Natsuki was fed up with the fillings and mixed varieties, and suddenly felt nostalgic for the original ordinary cake.

"Ningyo-yaki tastes good too. I'll improve it a little and make some other desserts by the way."

As soon as he thought of it, Xia Shu immediately got busy in the kitchen.

He is not short of money, and he doesn't care about whether the business is good or bad, as long as he likes it.

If I wasn't afraid of trouble, I wouldn't just open a cake shop.

Two days passed quickly.

"Xia Shu Cake Shop" was opened directly without any ceremony. Passersby just took a few curious glances and left in a hurry.

Satisfied, Natsuki put some of the products on the shelves and windows, then took a piece of donut to taste for herself.

At this time, Moya Aizaki, still wearing the AIB uniform, came to the door as promised and became the first customer of the cake shop.

"Mr. Takaki," Aizaki Moya looked around and looked at Natsuki blankly, "Didn't you say 50% off?"

"Oh, I forgot."

After Xia Shu finished the donuts in several bites, she went to the back kitchen and took out a "50% off today" poster and pasted it on the window outside.

Almost as soon as I put it on, several aunts came out from nowhere and crowded into the store. Even Natsuki was squeezed aside.

These people didn't buy it, they just looked around, and when they felt it was a good deal, they packed several pieces of original cake in one go.

Compared with the fancy cake varieties, the original cakes cannot be sold at a high price. They are much cheaper to begin with, not to mention that they are now discounted by 50%.

Aizaki Moya's eyes suddenly became anxious, and she didn't bother to talk to Natsuki, and immediately took several bags.

"Boss, check out!"

"Business is so good?"

Riku Asakura left the house a little late, and when he rushed to the cake shop, he could only watch the pastries being swept away, leaving only Natsuki's cream birthday cake for display.

"Xiao Lu, 50% off today!" Peijia said anxiously in the dark space, "Hurry up!"

"I can't afford a birthday cake."

Riku Asakura looked at the empty shelves in distress.

He doesn't want to disappoint his friends, but he doesn't usually have the habit of saving, and it's not time to pay his salary this month. Now he only has 2,000 yen in his pocket.

The cheapest cream cake actually costs 3,000 yen, 1,500 yen after discounts, but it’s still expensive. I can eat instant noodles for many days.

"If you're not in a hurry, just wait a little longer. There's still something in the oven." Natsuki glanced this way and warned.

He had also experienced the days when money was tight, and he immediately understood Asakura Riku's situation.

You know how uncomfortable it is to have no money, right?

this is life.

"No hurry, no hurry." Asakura Riku reacted and looked at Natsuki excitedly again.

He is indeed a hero, and his ability to make money in his spare time is so great.

No wonder the Flash on TV fights weirdos every day without any shortage of money.

Natsuki felt uncomfortable looking at him. He turned his eyes away and glanced at the shadow at Asakura Riku's feet. After glancing at Pejia who was hiding in the dark space and staring at him, he turned and walked into the kitchen.

"hiss!"

Pejia felt as if she was in an ice cellar, her eyes tightened and she stayed there in fear, as if she had seen countless abyss of terror. She was still unable to move until Xia Shu walked away.

"He, he saw me? Why is the boss so scary?"

"Pejia, what's wrong with you?" Asakura Lu was happy before he realized something was wrong with his partner.

"I'd better go back first, Xiao Lu." Pejia woke up, shivered and shrank back into the dark space, disappearing in an instant.

"Pega?"

Asakura Riku looked puzzled, but he was quickly attracted by the smell of the fresh original cake that Natsuki brought out.

"That's great, there really is more! Boss, give me one...two servings!"

"I want two too!"

Moya Aizaki raised her hand and shouted, and then she noticed Riku Asakura outside the crowd, who was stunned and said hello in surprise.

"Xiao Lu? Why are you here?"

He hadn't seen his childhood sweetheart Riku Asakura for a long time since he started working, and he didn't expect to come to buy a cake together.

It must be God's arrangement.

"Moeya?"

Asakura Riku was also surprised, but now was not the time to reminisce about old times.

"Wait a minute, buy the cake first!"

"Yep!"

Seeing the neighbors who came outside after hearing the news, Aizaki Moya felt nervous and quickly lined up with Asakura Riku.

She had already eaten a piece of cake. She had never tasted such a delicious cake.

This is a cake specially made by aliens, and you can't eat it normally.

I'm afraid even the aliens living on the earth will fight for it after they know about it, right?

"one by one."

"Don't crowd."

Natsuki regretted it a little.

Is the cake this time so delicious?

He didn't open the cake shop just to cause trouble for himself. It would be a good thing for him that the business would be quiet.

noon.

After selling all the cakes, Xia Shu decisively closed the store and suspended business.

Half a day open and half a day off is not too much.

After the original price is restored tomorrow, the number of customers should be less, but to be on the safe side it is best to hire a few employees.

He himself has eaten too many good things, including monster delicacies and alien delicacies, so he has somewhat underestimated the pursuit of delicious food by ordinary people.

At this rate, "Natsuki Cake Shop" is likely to become an internet celebrity shop like Shigemori Ningyoyaki.

Thinking about the long queues to buy Ningyo-yaki is overwhelming.

…

"Today's "Knowing the Broad" program will take you into the truth about the Park crisis."

"In the past, we all thought that the Inpark crisis was caused by a meteorite impact, but this is not the case.

Everyone, please take a look at this photo. Although the records at the time were destroyed due to the Parker Crisis, we accidentally discovered this photo. The giant in it is called Ultraman Beria..."

Galaxy Supermarket, Xingyun Village.

Asakura Riku brought freshly baked original cakes and Peijia for lunch, and also had a luxurious bowl of noodles.

After watching the TV report about the Parker crisis and Ultraman with relish for a while, Asakura Riku turned to Pejia beside him and asked: "Does it really exist?"

"Huh?" Pejia carefully studied the cake and said in shock, "What exists?"

"That's Ultraman," Asakura Riku said with admiration, "a giant warrior who fights with Belial to protect the universe."

"Both Ultraman and Beria are just urban legends. There is no evidence at all."

Pejia hesitated to take a bite of the cake, her eyes suddenly raised.

"How can it be so delicious?! Is this Earth's delicacy?"

"Maybe, but the boss's cake is better than the others."

Asakura Riku smiled.

He doesn't pay much attention to what he eats, but it can be seen from other people's reactions that ordinary cakes are not so popular.

Moreover, the boss’s cake was so delicious that he wanted to eat more pieces.

"The boss is really awesome. He just closed the shop and went out. He should be a hero again."

"Speaking of which, Xiao Lu, you are also very powerful," Peijia said while eating. "You were the only one who heard my cry for help at first, and your jumping ability is also unusual. Didn't you often jump up and hit the ceiling? Maybe? Xiao Lu, you are an alien just like me."

"I'm from Earth!"

Riku Asakura insisted.

His dream is to become a hero, and he became even more determined after seeing Natsuki defeat that gangster alien.

Excellent physical ability also gives him the conditions to become a hero.

"After a few days of getting familiar with it, I will become my boss' apprentice, and I will start as a cake apprentice."

"Why do you need to be a cake apprentice when you are a hero?" Pejia asked in surprise.

"You don't understand, Peijia, I will definitely be able to become a hero like the boss in the future, and the food I cook will also be popular." Asakura Riku watched the TV and made up his mind.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a violent shock rippled through Xingyun Village, debris was scattered all over the floor, and the TV was cut off and turned off.

Asakura Lu felt his whole body jump, and he stood up quickly and opened the curtains.

"earthquake?"

"Ji Ang——!"

As the windows opened, a huge roar mixed with screams could be heard in the distance.

Directly in front of him was a terrifying two-horned creature that was tens of meters tall, stepping on the ruins of a house and walking directly towards Xingyun Manor in the thick smoke of flames. Every step made the ground shake with rumbles.

"boom--!"

…

On the other side of Xingshan City.

After Natsuki closed the store, he found the place where the Inpark crisis occurred, the original center of the explosion, Jutsutsui General Hospital.

This is also the hospital where Lai Ye was born, which is why the Litru Star appeared in Lai Ye's body 6 years ago.

Among all Litru Star hosts, Laiye is the first and most special one, and the reason is because of this hospital.

"Wow!"

Affected by the strong energy of the Ultra King in the hospital, "Taiping Fengtu Ji" also shimmered and seemed to be resonating.

Xia Shu stood outside the hospital for a while, but still didn't dare to go in.

Maybe the Ultra King wouldn't regard him as an enemy, but he didn't dare to bet.

The level gap was too big, and he didn't like this feeling of not being in control.

“Boom—!”

The commotion caused by the monster spread as far as the hospital, and the air raid sirens rang out throughout the city.

Xia Shu's eyes tightened suddenly, and she relaxed her body after sensing that her cake shop was not destroyed.

A monster with huge red horns.

It is the Belial fusion beast Scarugomora controlled by Dek Fushii. Its strong body hidden in the thick smoke looks very powerful, and its energy intensity is A+.

However, the fusion beast did not attack at the moment, and even ignored the TV station helicopters flying in the air, and just walked with its head buried in the air.
