Self-cultivation of Kamen Rider ZIO

Chapter 309 Lucky Star
Airi Nogami is beautiful.

But that's not the point.

The point is, Nogami Airi has a peculiar magic power, her smile makes people unconsciously follow her steps.

No, when Gates came back to his senses, he found that he was already sitting in front of the bar with a cup of brewed coffee.

Gates: "..."

By the way, he was "woke up" by the bitterness of coffee.

Quickly put down the coffee in his hand, Gates got up excitedly.

"Wait! I'm not here for coffee, Miss Nogami, I'm here..."

"I know."

Airi Nogami interrupted with a smile.

"You are here to wait for Ryotaro, right? I know... so, calm down, guest, if you get too anxious, Lucky Star will run away."

Gates: "..."

Lucky Star?

Ah, this familiar déjà vu...

He doesn't know if Lucky Star will escape, but this time, he won't be easily hooked again!
"Miss Nogami!"

I saw Gates said with a serious expression.

"I wanted to say it before, I didn't come to wait for Ryotaro, I came... eh? Wait!"

Having said that, Gates' expression froze suddenly, and he looked at Airi Nogami in astonishment and asked.

"You just said... wait for Ryotaro!?"

"That's right, isn't it?" Nogami Airi asked back.

"Yes...uh, although that's true, but..."

Miss Nogami, that's not what you said before, hey!

The corner of Gates' mouth twitched, and he couldn't help asking: "Miss Nogami, how do you know?"

"A boy wearing a gray scarf told me that while drinking coffee in the store."

Nogami Airi replied leisurely while brewing coffee leisurely.

"He said that in the past few days, the demon king's subordinates will come to drink coffee. By the way, he will talk to Ryotaro about the maintenance of the time operation... Well, the demon king's subordinate he mentioned is you, right?"

[That bastard Woz—! ]
When Gates heard this, he gritted his teeth and cursed inwardly, and immediately denied, "No!"

"Eh? Didn't you come to look for Ryotaro?" Airi Nogami asked.

Facing Nogami Airi's puzzled gaze, Gates nodded hastily again.

"I'm."

Nogami Airi: "Sure enough, you are the subordinate of that demon king."

Gates: "..."

How did this come back again?No, he was trapped in it!

What Gates wants to explain is that he is indeed the person who came to find Ryotaro Nogami as described by Woz, but he is not a subordinate of the Demon King.

In Nogami Airi's cognitive logic, the person who came to Nogami Ryotaro described by Woz is the devil's subordinate.

In other words, Nogami Airi believes that if it is not the devil's subordinate, then it is not the person who came to Nogami Ryotaro as described by Woz.

Obviously, this is Woz grasping the character of Nogami Airi, and then deliberately misleading...

Therefore, if Gates only explained one of them, he would definitely be unable to explain it anyway!

[Woz that bastard——! ]
After reacting, Gates cursed Woz again and explained:
"It's not like that, Ms. Nogami! It should be said that I am indeed the person Woz said was looking for Mr. Ryotaro, but I am not under the Demon King... Ms. Nogami, do you understand what I said? "

"Yeah, I understand." Nogami Airi nodded, "I'm shy... right?"

"No! Why do you understand it like this?"

Gates was dumbfounded.

"Also, Ms. Nogami, why did you accept the existence of the Demon King so easily?"

"Eh? Is this hard to accept?"

Hearing Gates' question, Airi Nogami looked confused.

"Don't young people nowadays like this style?"

Airi Nogami explained.

"The hero is handsome, and the devil is also handsome, so the devil who becomes the hero is even more handsome... Such a setting seems to be quite popular."

After finishing speaking, Nogami Airi tilted her head, smiled and winked at Gates, and said.

"I also know how to watch anime and special movies, boy, don't underestimate adults."

Gates: "..."

Ah, now, it seems that I can't explain it clearly.

Because, now, no matter what he says, it seems that Nogami Airi can attribute it to a certain drama... It's nothing more than the difference between "seen" and "not seen".

[Woz, is this also in your plan! ? ]
Gates sat back on his seat with a slumped face, took a sip of coffee...

"so bitter!"

That smell, and his mood at the moment, is simply the Best Match (best match)!

So Gates started adding sugar to his coffee.

Then, the overly sweet coffee aggravated his inner anxiety.

In this way, the time came to the night.

Nogami Ryotaro never came back.

Lucky Star, seems to have really escaped from him.

Gates: "..."

……

……

The desert of time, the terminus.

Woz successfully met the station master of the terminal.

"Hello~~"

Hearing the stationmaster's greetings to him, Woz gracefully stroked his chest and saluted, and also greeted him back.

"Hello, station master."

Then, Woz cut to the chase:

"I came to visit this time because I want to ask the station master a thing or two about the upcoming divergence point."

Before coming to the stationmaster's office, Woz had already made a rough circle around and found no divergence points, so he added a "coming soon" before the new divergence points recorded in the book. adjective.

Hearing this, the station master smiled meaningfully.

"The point of disagreement that will appear...heh~~~"

He didn't answer Woz's question directly, but greeted Woz first.

"Come on, sit down."

Woz didn't refuse, and took advantage of the opportunity to sit down firmly.

He looked at the station master and said with a smile:

"I didn't doubt whether a new divergence point would appear like others did, webmaster. It seems that I came today in the right place, and I won't return without success."

"Hehe, I do know some information, but not much."

The station master took off the white hat on his head, flipped it around twice in his hand, put it on again, and continued.

"You know, in time, there are destiny and variables everywhere, can you understand?"

"Of course!" Woz nodded with a smile, "The monarch I serve is the ruler of time!"

Implicit meaning, needless to say.

At the same time, he involuntarily lowered his head and glanced at the calendar of encountering demons in his hand.

Yes, those words in this book, which are always unchanged and lack blank, are the perfect embodiment of that sentence.

He personally has a deep understanding of this.

"So, needless to say, the station master, unlike other people, you should be able to understand it, right?"

Woz said proudly and proudly.

"How important is it to let the future point to the future that my Majesty the Demon Lord believes in?"

Hearing this, the station master's eyes instantly became sharp, but soon, his peace returned, as did the smile on his face.

"That's true~~"

Saying this, the station master raised his hand and raised two fingers.

"Well, there are two things I can tell you."

"First, the terminal has been here for 11 years, so there must be a divergence point near here. It is not 'coming soon', but has already existed here, but we Its exact location has never been found.”

"Secondly, on December 2018, 12, the Den-Liner was in the process of traveling towards that date ... lost contact."
