Unable to pay off my debts, I had no choice but to become a Kamen Rider.

What flavor do you like?

Asano Yu asked her about her drink preferences while almost laughing.

"I don't know! Don't ask me!"

Kirishima Chinatsu, who had already turned into a slime, let out a rather dissatisfied complaint.

Because he couldn't see the face at all, and didn't know what the vocal organs were, Asano Yu always found it very novel.

When she spoke just now, Asano Yu was startled. He suddenly transformed into Kamen Rider Decade and almost turned Kirishima Chinatsu into Kirishima Chinatsu-chan.

Fortunately, Kirishima Chinatsu revealed in time that she and Asano Yu were in a rental relationship, thus saving them from disaster.

However, Kirishima Chinatsu herself felt wronged, as she had only accidentally exposed her true identity and was almost killed by Asano Yu.

After that, Asano Yu questioned her for a very long time, so long that Hayami Mitsuki even called to inquire about the situation.

Asano Yu casually made up an excuse that he had already found it, but Kirishima Chinatsu was a little uncomfortable, and brushed it off. Hayami Mitsuki felt that the two of them were definitely slacking off, but since there was no substantial evidence, he could only give up.

After ending her call with Hayami Mitsuki, Asano Yu turned to question the unidentified slime creature in front of her.

Asano Yu isn't stupid. She won't believe that some strange person who comes to her and says things only she knows is really the person she knows.

He would only think about whether he had done something wrong, leading to the leakage of information, or whether his friends had been killed, forced to back down under coercion, or had their memories extracted or their bodies modified.

Therefore, when he saw Kirishima Chinatsu in her slime form, his mind went through three thoughts in sequence: "Kirishima Chinatsu has been possessed," "Kirishima Chinatsu has been modified," and "Kirishima Chinatsu herself."

And this was gradually confirmed during questioning.

What did Asano Yu ask?

From their first meeting to what happened at the hotel this morning, there were many questions and the situation was urgent, so Kirishima Chinatsu couldn't answer them all correctly.

That makes sense. If she could answer all the questions that were half true and half false, Asano Yu would really have to wonder if the slime in front of her was actually Kirishima Chinatsu.

In the end, Kirishima Chinatsu only answered 39 out of 63 questions correctly, but perfectly avoided the 15 questions that Asano Yu had fabricated. Therefore, she was indeed the real Kirishima Chinatsu.

However, because Asano Yu was a bit too strict, Kirishima Chinatsu's emotions kept fluctuating. At first, she was so scared that she cried, and she had to answer Asano Yu's questions while crying, which was indeed a bit difficult for her.

However, after all their efforts, they were still stuck in the alley.

For the time being, let Kirishima Chinatsu hide in the cool plastic bag to avoid contact with the ground.

Why are you staring at me!

When Chinatsu Kirishima complains, the Slime Gang shakes gently, like an upside-down jelly, which is quite amusing.

So Asano Yu stared at it for a while, which earned him a complaint from the grumpy slime lady.

It's probably because her current physical condition isn't what she wants, which is why she keeps complaining so much.

"I want you to quickly choose a flavor you like from here."

Asano Yu pointed to the plastic bags filled with drinks, and the plastic bottles filled with various drinks under her.

Why?

Kirishima Chinatsu shifted slightly, perhaps she was frowning?

Because her facial expressions and eyes are completely invisible, one can only judge her mood at this moment by the tone of her voice—it's interesting.

"Because I need to take you back, right?"

"and then?"

"I can't exactly hold you in my hands, can I? I need a container, you know?"

"But we can't waste food, can we?"

Kirishima Chinatsu immediately understood that Asano Yu wanted to empty a water bottle to hold her, but they couldn't waste food, especially since it cost money!

"Who said we should waste it? You pick one, and I'll down it in one gulp!"

Asano Yu felt that Kirishima Chinatsu was looking down on his title of "King of Water Drinking," because back in school, it was common for him to borrow water from others during PE class.

The ironclad rules of only taking a sip and never drinking directly from the mouth have given rise to the extraordinary feat of drinking more than half of a drink in one gulp.

Sacrificing future reputation for a moment of fleeting pleasure.

"No drinks, just bottled water is fine..."

Kirishima Chinatsu muttered to herself that she didn't want to be all sticky when she turned back into a human body, so she absolutely shouldn't drink any beverages!

However, after searching through the plastic bag, Asano Yu couldn't find even a single bottle of mineral water.

It's filled with sweet things, from well-known beverages to energy drinks, even green tea, honey tea, and barley tea—but there's no mineral water.

"Have you forgotten what you bought?"

Asano Yu asked a question in return, but did not hear her answer immediately.

"I remember now."

Chinatsu Kirishima sounded very tired.

In the end, Asano Yu ran back to 711-Eleven to buy water, drinking as she walked until she finished it all, and then returned to Kirishima Chinatsu's side.

Having transformed into a slime, she wriggled her body and slowly crawled into the narrow opening of the bottle, eventually filling it almost completely.

It's heavy, which is quite interesting.

Asano Yu picked it up and shook it, immediately drawing a roar from Kirishima Chinatsu:

"What are you doing! Stop messing with me!"

Chinatsu Kirishima's complaints sounded like they came from the bottom of the sea, carrying a vague quality that made them sound quite interesting.

However, after she shouted that, Asano Yu knew that she shouldn't continue playing around, so she picked up the two big bags and headed towards the hotel.

As for Kirishima Chinatsu, she was stuffed into the top of the plastic bag by him.

Asano Yuya was surprised to find that he could lift two large bags of water effortlessly without even stopping to rest, and he didn't even seem out of breath while chatting with Kirishima Chinatsu.

It seems that his physical attributes have improved because he completed a breakthrough mission, but these things have never been presented in numerical form, so we can only guess based on his daily behavior.

"Oh! Asano!"

When Asano Yu arrived at the hotel lobby with Kirishima Chinatsu, someone suddenly came out of the elevator and greeted Asano Yu.

Asano Yu knew this person; he was a senior colleague on the same set who also played a strange character, and sometimes he would be a bystander.

"Oh, you're going to buy water? Great, I'm dying of thirst!"

The senior waved and walked over, bending down to take the water from the plastic bag.

"Yes, but we might have to wait until next time to use these—you can have a bottle if you need one."

Asano Yu smiled and lifted the plastic bag, wanting him to take a bottle from it.

Unexpectedly, he reached out and tried to grab the bottled Kirishima Chinatsu!

Just before his fingers were about to touch it, Asano Yu snatched the bottled Kirishima Chinatsu away.

The senior looked up and glanced at it, seemingly somewhat surprised:

"What's wrong?"

"Uh... Ah! I drank from this bottle, really!"

Asano Yu quickly made up an excuse, but his senior frowned, looking at the overflowing bottle and then at the plastic bag underneath—

"Oh! There's Coke!"

He took the bottle of Coke and then turned and left.

Asano Yu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the bottled Kirishima Chinatsu in his palm.

"I was so scared... Waaaaah..."

She started crying again.
