Chapter 191 Battle Rabbit's New Toy
Inside the coffee shop, Hidetoshi Ukiyo was holding a coffee cup and drinking it quietly while watching Misora ​​and Yaon interacting live in the corner.

Their voices were clear and cheerful, and the camera occasionally swept across the furnishings in the store, obviously trying to recommend this treasure coffee shop to the audience.

But Ukiyo Hidetoshi did not comment, but just observed everything with a calm look.

"Your coffee."

A familiar voice came, and Ukiyo Hidetoshi looked up slightly, and saw Onoue Takumi walking slowly towards him with a cup of freshly brewed coffee, and gently placed the coffee in front of him.

"Thank you."

Hidetoshi Ukiyo took the coffee, whispered a thank you, and gently touched the cup with his fingers, feeling the warmth.

However, after a moment, he put down the cup without drinking the coffee immediately, his eyes flickered slightly, and he said:

"Gray... No, Mr. Manager."

Ooue Qiao raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at him: "What's wrong?"

Ukiyo Hidetoshi pursed his lips, paused, and then said, "Actually, that was not what I meant that day."

He was referring to the previous conversation in Jinghe. Also, because Onoe Takumi and Misora ​​were both in this cafe, Ukiyo Hidetoshi became more curious about this place.

After hearing this, Onoue Qiao smiled slightly. Her smile was gentle but carried a reassuring calmness. "Don't mind it. It's just that Jinghe is too delicate sometimes, so he needs proper guidance."

“Proper guidance…”

Recalling the scene of that day and the beating of Sumida.

Ukiyo Hidetoshi repeated this sentence in a low voice, and his eyes couldn't help but glance at Jinghe at the bar.

Jinghe was talking to Yaon and Misora ​​at the moment, his eyes bright, obviously happy about their arrival. There was no unnecessary worry in his expression, and his whole body exuded a pure warmth.

Hidetoshi Ukiyo seemed to be thinking about something, then he turned his gaze back to Takumi Onoue.

He always felt that this man had lived for more than a thousand years, just like himself.

The calmness that comes from experiencing so much is not something that ordinary people can possess.

"What's the manager's reason for fighting?"

After thinking for a moment, Ukiyo Hidetoshi suddenly spoke, looking directly at Onoue Takumi, with a hint of curiosity in his tone.

What is the reason for fighting.

He has asked this question to many people, and everyone's answer is different.

Some fight for power, some for desire, and some just for survival.

What is the reason of this store manager who seems to be so unclear?
Onoue Takumi smiled gently: "Are polar foxes also asking this kind of question?"

Ukiyo Hidetoshi shrugged, his tone casual: "Just curious."

Onoue Takumi raised his head slightly, looked at the sunlight shining through the window, was silent for a moment, and then spoke softly.

"Maybe, I hope for world peace first, and then I can go home in peace."

Ukiyo Hidetoshi was stunned for a moment.

His answer was both simple and complex.

World peace...and then go home peacefully?
He had heard many reasons for fighting in past competitions, but few people would describe their wishes in such simple terms.

Going home doesn't sound like a Kamen Rider's goal, but more like an ordinary person's wish.

For a moment, he didn't know how to respond.

Ukiyo Hidetoshi stared at his reflection in the coffee, a smile on his lips: "...That's a pretty good reason." Ukiyo Hidetoshi continued to shake the coffee cup, his eyes leisurely watching the floating coffee oil in the cup. The golden light reflected on the liquid surface, reflecting a warm color.

For him, such a moment of peace is rare.

The next second, Onoue Takumi pushed his coffee cup in front of him and said in a steady voice, "Drink your coffee first. The temperature is just right."

Ukiyo Hidetoshi was slightly stunned, took a look at the cup of coffee, then chuckled and said with a hint of ridicule: "I didn't expect the store manager to be so particular about coffee."

He picked up the cup, blew on it gently, and then took a sip of coffee.

"It smells good."

The taste is mellow and the aftertaste is long. The temperature of the coffee is just right, neither hot nor cold. The moment you take a sip, your whole body feels warm.

Onoue Qiao smiled slightly, with a hint of pride: "Yeah, it's just right to drink it now, so I let you try it."

Ukiyo Hidetoshi looked at his expression and suddenly felt that this person was really interesting.

Mingming can show amazing fighting power and calmness in the game, but in daily life, he can treat a cup of coffee so carefully, just to let people taste it in its most perfect state.

Hidetoshi Ukiyo leaned back in his chair, feeling a rare sense of relaxation of body and mind.

The competitive pressure in these few days of competition is huge, especially the performance of Onoue Takumi, which has almost become his biggest threat.

But at this moment, in such a warm atmosphere, all the pressure seemed to be diluted by the aroma of coffee, allowing him to temporarily put aside his identity as Polar Fox and simply sit here and communicate with people.

Just as Ukiyo Hidetoshi was enjoying this rare relaxation, his gaze turned slightly and fell on Misora ​​not far away.

She was chatting with Miyin, looking relaxed, with a warm smile on her lips, and her eyes showed her familiarity with the store and this place.

Ukiyo Hidetoshi looked at her for a while and asked casually, "Is she your girlfriend?"

There was no deliberate teasing or ridicule in his words, just pure curiosity.

After all, from the moment she entered the store, Misora's attitude towards Onoue Takumi was obviously different from that of an ordinary employee or friend. It was more like the trust of a family member.

Onoue Qiao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he smiled softly and said in a gentle tone: "She is the daughter of the previous store manager. I hope I can always take care of her."

His tone was very natural, without any deliberate concealment, but it carried an indescribable sense of responsibility.

At the same time, he also implicitly responded to his own question.

The somewhat gossipy Ukiyo Hidetoshi looked up at his expression and suddenly understood a lot of things. He smiled knowingly and said, "I see."

He did not ask any further questions, but just took a sip of coffee silently and looked at the scenery outside the window leisurely.

On the street outside the window, the sun is warm, people are coming and going, and life goes on.

"How does it feel to relax?"

Ooue Takumi spoke softly, his voice steady and with a hint of lazy gentleness.

Ukiyo Hidetoshi took a sip of coffee, smiled slightly, and said in a rare relaxed tone: "Very comfortable."

Just as he was immersed in this rare comfort, Onoue Takumi slowly stood up, took out a special buckle from his pocket, gently placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of Ukiyo Hidetoshi.

"This little toy is a gift for you and Jinghe."

Ukiyo Hidetoshi raised his eyebrows slightly and his eyes fell on the buckle. He could vaguely see the unique modification marks of the War Rabbit. It was obvious that he made two identical buckles.

Picking it up and taking a look, Ukiyo Hidetoshi's expression changed slightly: "This...!"
