RETURN OF ULTRAMAN

INVITATION FROM HELL

You can see it too The Star of Ultra

Far away Alone on Earth

Dedicating his life to defeating monsters

Any moment now He'll reach the burning town

With the echoing roar in his ear

He's returned He's returned

Ultraman

Featuring Primitive Underground Human Kingbockle.

The Underground Science Center was destroyed and nothing's left.

It looks like it was completely buried in dirt.

PROFESSOR KOIZUMI DROWNS SELF IN LAKE SHINJU?

That's impossible!

Koizumi sensei of all people...

He'd never commit suicide!

"Koizumi sensei'? You knew him?

Yeah. He wasn't such a weakling!

Hmm. He was a world-renowned scientist.

There must have been some reason.

Dammit! I swear I'll get to the bottom of this!

You're really pumped up.

Don't trip yourself up like usual.

Ueno-san, you have a call. Someone named Chidori Koizumi.

Okay!

Yes, this is Ueno.

Hey, isn't Chidori Koizumi...

Yeah. Professor Koizumi's only daughter.

Yeah. I read in the paper. Ah.

I thought Ueno was acting strange.

Yeah. Yeah.

I was hoping to ask about it, too.

At school? Sure. Give me the address.

Why's everyone smiling in the middle of the day?

Well, about that, Captain...

Ueno, get to work immediately. Investigate the Professor Koizumi case.

Yes, sir!

Lucky bastard!

Ueno-san.

(Em-Chan.

You've grown so much. I hardly recognized you.

Ueno-san.

I'm so frustrated. They're saying it's a suicide.

I am, too. Anyone who knew Koizumi sense/ would never believe such a thing!

Thank you, Ueno-san.

Did Koizumi sense/ often go to Lake Shinju?

Yes. Whenever he came to Tokyo from the Underground Science Center,

he always used the highway bus.

I see.

Oh!

Look out!

Are you okay, Chi-Chan?!

Yes, this is MAT HQ.

What? A Whirlwind?

Fortunately, it wasn't bad, so I'm heading to Lake Shinju now.

Oh, yeah. Chi-Chan is fine.

Oka-kun, what's a "Chi-Chan"?

He calls her "Chi-Chan." What do you think?

From the sounds of it, Ueno's smitten with that young girl.

I don't think such an opinion is fitting of a MAT member.

Professor Koizumi was Ueno's teacher. You could even call him Ueno's father figure.

When Ueno was young and got lost in the mountains,

it was Professor Koizumi who risked himself to save him.

Oh.

It's unfair to look at Ueno that way.

I'm sorry.

By the way, Captain,

we've obtained film of Professor Koizumi walking towards the lake.

They said it might help MAT. Should we process it now?

Yeah. Do it. Yes, sir.

JAPAN GEOLOGICAL RESEARCH CENTER

It's like someone's playing a trick on us or something.

He said he was going to Tokyo, so we thought he'd take the bus.

Then he wanders off down the valley towards the lake.

Towards the lake?

That must be what sleepwalking is like.

Then some strange smoke came out.

This must be where the smoke came out.

Dad loved this view.

Oh! Look out, Chi-Chan!

It's fine. This is where Dad always stood.

(Em-mam!

Hold on!

Are you all right?

Ueno-san, I'm scared!

Scared?

Strange things keep happening.

What sort of strange things?!

Wherever I go, there are accidents.

Accidents?

Let's just get out of here! Okay.

Chi-Chan, hold on tight!

Let's go to HQ. We'll need to protect you.

-Really? I'll have to let my dorm know. -Okay.

Oh!

-Ueno-san! Help! Ueno-san! -Chi-chan!

Help me!

Ueno-san!

(Em-mam ON.!

Help!

Chi-Chan, hold on!

Are you okay?!

Dammit.

Oh! Dad!

Sensei!

Dad, wake up! Dad! Dad!

I killed him?

I killed Koizumi sensei?!

Dad!

Stop! Ueno!

A civilian. Not only that,

how could you shoot the world renowned Underground Scientist, Professor Koizumi?!

But, Staff Officer, Ueno says he was shot at before he fired his MAT Shoot.

We searched the area, but there was no such evidence.

More importantly, Ueno's bullet was extracted from Professor Koizumi's heart.

There are people in the government who are saying MAT should be disbanded.

If this incident is made public, it'll only be a matter of time.

Captain! Captain!

Captain!

Ueno-san, do you want anything?

If there's anything you need me to do, just ask.
