==Plot==
The military shoots down an Invader UFO. Dr. Mitarai arms Chief with the new Sol-Gun because, as a former police officer, he is the only member of SGM with the training necessary to use it. He and Fujimoto investigate the crash site and discover a box left by the Invaders. They retrieve it, but are attacked. Murakami, however, refuses to use the Sol-Gun, and they are very nearly killed before being rescued by Kyotaro.
Kyotaro approaches Murakami and asks him why he did not shoot. Murakami promises to treat Kyotaro but refuses to answer. 
Kyotaro discovers from Dr. Mitarai that Murakami used to be a police detective. During that time, while pursuing an Invader, he was knocked out. The Invader took his gun and shot his partner. Since the bullet was from his gun, he was dishonorably discharged from the police force. He vowed from that time never to shoot a gun again. 
When they analyze the box taken from the UFO crash site, they discover that it contains a highly contagious and deadly virus designed to wipe out humanity. The Invaders had planned to scatter it over earth but had been shot down before accomplishing that. Murakami and Fujimoto are sent to deliver the case to the Biological Warfare Department so the virus can be properly destroyed. On the way, however, they are attacked by Invaders, this time armed with guns. Murakami still refuses to shoot, and when Fujimoto takes the gun from him and attempts to use it, he is injured. 
Kyotaro arrives in his car, giving Murakami and Fujimoto time to escape. One of the Invaders transforms into a monster, Zailas. Separated from the others, Kyotaro transforms into Mirrorman and begins to fight. 
Meanwhile, Murakami and Fujimoto are ambushed by one remaining Invader who grabs the box and runs. Murakami and Fujimoto pursue him. Another Invader spaceship arrives to retrieve the box and the Invader races towards it. Injured, Fujimoto is left far behind. Murakami is unable to catch up with the Invader. Meanwhile, Mirrorman defeats Zailas. 
The Invader reaches the door of the spaceship. Realizing that it is his only chance of stopping the virus plot, Murakami pulls out the Sol-Gun and fires. The Invader dies and the spaceship departs without him or the box containing the virus, which Murakami retrieves as Fujimoto and Kyotaro run out to greet him. 
Back at base, Murakami returns the Sol-Gun to Dr. Mitarai, reminding the others that SGM is a scientific organization, not a combat-oriented one, stating that true victory cannot be attained if they forget this.
Later, Kyotaro reminds Murakami that he had promised to treat him. The two men drive off together, but the narrator warns that, for Mirrorman, the fight never ends.
