Self-cultivation of Kamen Rider ZIO

Chapter 725 Domestic Support

The exploding research institute, and the crowd of people wearing the same armbands rushing out of the fireworks-filled research institute?

The silver-and-gold clock disappeared from his sight. Tokiwa Sougo couldn't help but sigh, with a hint of ridicule on the corner of his mouth:

"Oh, it seems that no matter which world we are in, the only lesson that humans can learn from history is that humans cannot learn any lessons from history."

The forbidden biological experiment produced a forbidden creature, which was then lost due to an accident at the research institute and turned into a monster that wreaked havoc on the world...

  Tsk tsk, it really is... Tokiwa Sougo feels that his top priority, perhaps, should not be to look for Negishi who has gone nowhere, but to first look for any cyborgs in this world, and by the way, see if there is a knight system with local characteristics in this world!

After all, as a demon king who possesses all the power of a knight, he is naturally close to cyborgs.

Thinking of this, Tokiwa Sougo closed the webpage and logged off.

Someone was riding a motorcycle through the rain, passing through the streets and passing by the window.

The rain gradually lightened up and became a drizzle.

When Tokiwa Sougo, who did not bring any rain gear, pushed the door open and stepped onto the street, the last drop of rain fell from the sky, splashing ripples in the puddle.

A girl passing by with an umbrella noticed the change, tilted her umbrella to look at the sky, and then folded the umbrella.

This is a short-haired girl of about seventeen or eighteen years old. She is wearing a thick scarf and her school uniform's pleated skirt can be seen under her black coat.

There was obvious sadness on her face, and she seemed to be worried.

Tokiwa Sougo, who had just stepped out of the Internet cafe, turned his head and saw the girl. His eyes paused obviously and he was quite surprised.

"Senior sister..."

He thought of his noisy, energetic junior, Yu Kinoshita, who had a vague connection with urban legends.

Isotope from another world?

"..."

Tokiwa Sougo's overly direct gaze aroused Mizusawa Mitsuki's vigilance.

She heard Tokiwa Sougo's soft call just now.

However, because of what happened in school, she not only did not relax her vigilance, but instead took a step back and subconsciously tightened her hands holding the umbrella handle.

She seemed to have remembered something bad, and because of Tokiwa Sougo's impolite behavior, she associated him with that incident.

As a result, her gaze towards Tokiwa Sougo began to become resistant, even containing a hint of disgust.

  [Bullying…?]

Seeing this scene, Tokiwa Sougo couldn't help but frown.

He had originally planned to just pass by without interfering, but now he looked directly at Mizusawa Mizuki with an even more direct gaze than before.

During this time, a silver-and-gold clock appeared in his deep black eyes, and its hands moved rapidly.

Tokiwa Sougo decided to take a look at Mizusawa Mizuki's future.

In the absence of information, this glance is truly a random picture of the future that depends entirely on fate.

However, just with this one look, Tokiwa Sougo completely gave up the idea of ​​"not interfering".

  [Schoolmate... without me as your senior, your connection with urban legends would have turned into an ill fate, right?]

The corners of Tokiwa Sougo's mouth twitched as he looked at Mizusawa Mizuki's face, which was exactly the same as his schoolmate's, and felt very weird.

The look in his eyes when he looked at Mizuki Mizusawa was so gentle... and conflicted.

Being looked at like this by Tokiwa Sougo, Mizusawa Mizuki's beautiful eyebrows were furrowed even more tightly.

An impolite word came out of her heart:

  [Is this person sick?]

But what was strange was that the dislike she had just developed towards Tokiwa Sougo because of the association disappeared quietly.

He wasn't the guy those bastards in school were looking for. Maybe he just wanted to chat up someone? Or maybe he got the wrong person?

Mizusawa Mizuki thought silently.

then.

  She heard the senior in front of her who might have... well, recognized the wrong person asked with pity:

"Yuu, are you okay?"

Mizusawa Mizuki: “…”

Mizusawa Mizuki: “!!!”

…    …

Unlike her usual worried self, Mizusawa Mizuki looked visibly dazed when she returned home today.

悠。

Mizusawa Yuu.

This is a frail and sickly brother who was adopted by my mother two years ago.

As the daughter of a single-parent family whose mother is a strong woman, the lack of family affection makes Mizusawa Mizuki very lonely.

At school, Mizusawa Mizuki was disliked by the bad girl group because of her identity as a "young lady", and was subsequently alienated and isolated by everyone in the school, which further exacerbated her loneliness.

It's a hole that's growing bigger and bigger.

In this case, a brother who is adopted by the mother, gentle and caring, undoubtedly fills this gap.

Mizuki Mizusawa likes this brother.

She gained the family love and friendship that she desperately lacked from Mizusawa Yu.

Therefore, she did not understand why her mother treated Mizusawa Yu so harshly and cruelly.

  If my mother didn't like my brother, why did she adopt him?

Although the door was not locked, the mother used a stern tone to forbid Mizusawa Yu to step out of the house, effectively imprisoning Mizusawa Yu.

Not only that, her mother warned her more than once to stop bothering Mizusawa Yuu...

Mizusawa Mizuki didn't understand.

Don't understand it at all.

  If it is due to illness, then what exactly is that illness?

Why is it that in the past two years, not only her, but even her brother himself, doesn't know what his illness is?

Today, Mizuki Mizusawa was originally planning to muster up the courage to question her mother, but now... she changed her mind.

Because she had a better choice.

Mizusawa Mizuki came to Mizusawa Yu's room and looked at Mizusawa Yu who was setting up the water tank. She hesitated for a moment, then mustered up her courage and said in an extremely serious manner: "Yu, have you used the medicine? If not, use it now!"

Mizusawa Yu: “…”

Mizusawa Yu: “???”

Just when Mizusawa Yu was staring at Mizusawa Mizuki blankly, feeling a little overwhelmed, Mizusawa Mizuki spoke again.

She urged, "Hurry up! After you're done, I'll take you out to see someone!"

“!!!” Mizusawa Yu was shocked.

He looked at Mizusawa Mizuki in astonishment, opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but couldn't say anything for a moment.

You wanna take me out? You said you wanna take me out!?

He completely ignored the second half of Mizusawa Mizuki's sentence and only paid attention to the first half: "get out".

Seeing that Mizusawa Yu was stunned, Mizusawa Mizuki started rummaging through the drawers and helped Mizusawa Yu find the medicine box.

Behind the girl's hurried actions lies the rebellion and excitement that has been suppressed for so long.

She seemed to be doing something huge.

When Mizusawa Mizuki took out the medicine box and put it in Mizusawa Yu's hand, for some unknown reason, Mizusawa Yu obediently took the medicine that he was most reluctant to use.

"Conserve your energy, we will act at night!"

Mizusawa Mizuki put her hands on Mizusawa Yu's shoulders and gave him instructions very seriously.

What was reflected in the girl's mirror-clear eyes was a smile that Mizusawa Yuu himself had not noticed: it was on his face that was involuntarily filled with desire and joy.

He longs for freedom!
