Chapter 24: It's always like this for the victims
"That was when the world's countries, centered around the United States and the Bear Country, were competing for space. One country's artificial satellite had an incident where it could not return to Earth. The astronaut's name was Jamila."

"However, in order to compete for space resources, the appointment was ignored. It would be bad if this matter were made public."

"This country has forever hidden the failure of Jamila and its satellite from the world."

As the narration sounded, an ancient black-and-white image appeared in front of everyone.

The picture froze for a long time on the photo of astronaut Jamila wearing a space suit, which made people feel suffocated.

At this time, the station director Chu Guoming was also watching TV, unable to believe it.

As we all know, space in a spacecraft is limited, and food and water are limited. It is completely impossible for humans to survive alone in space.

So, how did Jamila, who was unable to return to Earth and was abandoned in the vast universe, survive for decades without food or water?
In the long darkness of the universe, how did Jamila survive the loneliness that could destroy a person's spirit?
Thinking of Jamila's cracked skin, Chu Guoming felt as if his chest was hit by a heavy punch and was in dull pain.

Perhaps, what has kept Jamila going for so many years is the hatred of being ruthlessly abandoned by the country she loves so much.
Because of his strong hatred, even after decades, he still has to develop spacecraft to return to the Earth he longs for, to his hometown.

But he must have loved his country deeply, so he chose to become an astronaut, a very dangerous profession.

However, his country gave up on him after weighing the pros and cons.

Chu Guoming suddenly felt that Jamila might not only hate the person who made that decision, but also the hypocritical peace.

For the sake of superficial vanity, he became a discarded option.

Now someone is trying to raise the banner of false peace and, just like many years ago, make innocent people become pawns for the upper class to gain greater power. How could he not stop it?

After watching so many episodes of Ultraman, Chu Guoming actually wants to stand on the side of the monster this time.

He was surprised at his own thoughts, but sighed for Jamila's tragic fate.

Maybe Shen Ming will give him a good ending. This is the only way Chu Guoming can comfort himself for now.

At this moment, Team member Yin Chu, who had been shouting about killing the monster, suddenly threw away the gun in his hand. He didn't want to fight with Jamila anymore.

He did not just act out of simple sympathy, he did it after careful consideration and ultimately thought of himself.

Will Jamila's fate befall them one day in the future?
They are willing to fight and risk their lives for their sincere ideals, but this does not mean that others can use them as sacrifices.

No one can arbitrarily decide their lives without asking their own wishes!

Team member Yin Chu's roar silenced all members of Team Kurt.

They also thought of themselves.

No one wants to be used by others.

However, those who were affected did not include the commissioners sent from the headquarters.

He announced the headquarters' order in an almost mechanical and cold tone:
"Since Jamila's true identity is unknown and involves military secrets, she must be eliminated as a monster from another universe."

Such a cold-blooded and ruthless order provoked a barrage of curses from the audience in the live broadcast room.

Some people denounced the ruthlessness of politics, some felt sad for Jamila, and some couldn't help but think of themselves. Aren't they also part of the group being exploited by the capitalist bosses?

Beyond that, many people were impressed by the depth of the episode, and wondered if kids could understand such satire.

In fact, most children cannot understand it.

But even though we don’t understand the cruelty of reality, our emotions are mutual.

The children could feel the pain and suffering shown by the Kurt team members.

In front of the TV, the girl Xiaoxiao suddenly looked up at her mother and asked, "Dad was also abandoned, so he can't come home?"

Xiaoxiao's mother was drawn into the plot and was feeling sad. She was startled when her daughter asked her this.

But when faced with her daughter's problems, she didn't know how to explain. She wanted her daughter to take her father as a role model, but she was afraid that her daughter would follow her father's old path.

The mother and daughter looked at each other in silence, and the TV screen changed.

The war against Jamila finally broke out.

But this battle was almost a crushing victory.

Not only was Jamila not afraid of human fire attacks, she even spewed out large amounts of flames to destroy the prosperous town.

Houses were reduced to ashes under Jamila's attack, and despair lingered in the hearts of every refugee.

At this moment, two people running against the refugee crowd attracted people's attention.

It was a boy and a mother frantically chasing after her son.

When everyone felt helpless about the naughty kid, the boy actually rescued a chubby pigeon from home, picked it up and ran away.

For a moment, the audience seemed to see the hope of peace from a child, a child who loves small animals.

A mother desperately ran towards the fire to save her child.

With the existence of these beauties of humanity, the world may not be so bad as to be destroyed.

Just when everyone was feeling conflicted, seeing Jamila approaching and about to take the lives of both mother and child, Team Yin Chu suddenly raised his voice and asked:
"Jamila, have you really lost your human heart?"

This questioning voice.

Inspiring and enlightening.

Jamila seemed to have her mind awakened and actually stopped.

He looked at the destroyed towns around him and at the people fleeing in panic in the distance, and hesitated for a moment.

Now he seems to be a real monster
But at first, he just wanted to seek justice for himself and tear apart the hypocritical fairness.

These ordinary people are innocent.

It was the monster's doing to hurt them, not Jamila's.

So Jamila turned around and walked towards the venue of the international peace conference.

However, the humans who saw through Jamila's weakness used rain bombs against him.

Jamila, who has become his current state due to lack of water over the past few decades, is now tormented by water.

The Earth, a planet that is 70% ocean, cannot accommodate Jamila who is afraid of water.
He struggled in pain and fell into the mud, but his eyes were always directed towards the culprit who caused all this—

International Peace Conference!

The flags of various countries are still flying under the blue sky and sunshine.

But to people, it looks like cold and ruthless gazes.

In the end, in order to stop Jamila from continuing to harm humans, Team Member Tian Jin had to transform into Ultraman and use the Ultra Water Gun to deal with Jamila.

Jamila howled in pain as the source of life eroded her.

He fell completely into the mud, covered in dirt.

Even so, he still did not resist.

Even if he had to crawl, he kept moving towards the venue.

Hadn't he endured decades of loneliness and pain just for this day?

And his wails gradually became more like human voices, like crying.

Is he going to turn back into a human?
Or is this just an illusion?
no one knows.

Because Jamila had completely stopped struggling.

Even though he tried his best and risked his life, in the end he only pulled those fluttering national flags into the mud and failed to cause any substantial damage.

The defenders of humanity have triumphed over the victims of humanity, and it is a losing battle
At the end of the story, Jamila was finally buried secretly in a corner.

And the International Peace Conference was held successfully.

On the day of the meeting, representatives from various countries were dressed in fancy clothes and walked hurriedly, with ugly masks tainted by power on their faces.

No one noticed that there was a monument under their feet, which recorded the deeds of the human hero Jamila.

No one noticed!!
They even walked over it without showing any emotion!!
At this moment, the words engraved on the monument are simply humiliating!!

[The souls of warriors who sacrificed their lives for human dreams and scientific development rest here]

Looking at this string of words, the audience even thought it would be better not to carve it, but if that were the case, there would really be no trace of Jamila left.

Jamila, the victim of false peace, is not remembered by anyone.

Until finally, the members of the Kurt team who came to visit Jamila also left.

Only team member Yin Chu was still standing there.

He turned his back to the sun and said gloomily:

"It's always like this with the victims, they are just praised with beautiful words."

What about these people?

Will they be pushed into the same situation as their predecessor Jamila?
