The Strange Cat from Fuuto

At this moment, Saeko arrived carrying Miku. Upon seeing this scene, Saeko suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. The guy in front of her could no longer be called human. He was willing to use anyone or anything to satisfy his craving for memories!

"That guy!" Saeko muttered to herself, "I have to report this to Father before he causes any more trouble!"

Saeko, who turned and left, had long forgotten the purpose of her visit. Now, the most important thing was to report this matter to her superiors. Sougo Ichiro noticed but didn't care. In the Sonozaki family, in the museum, the old man was the god, and nothing could threaten this fearsome emperor.

"Someone come here and tidy her up!"

After opening the cage, Sougo Ichiro looked at the woman inside with a smug smile.

............

Mi Xuanlinzi was no longer the filthy woman she once was. Now, dressed in a well-fitting women's suit and high heels, she was still reflecting on her life over the past month. Her marriage had been ruined by her husband's infidelity. The soles of her shoes made a crisp sound as they hit the ground. Sougo Ichiro led the way, remaining silent.

Living alone with her daughter, she lost her job due to layoffs at her workplace. After a long period of unemployment, she had no source of income. Someone recommended a job to her, but unexpectedly, she was sold into prostitution as a guinea pig. During her time in captivity, she contemplated suicide many times, but the thought of her daughter kept her going until today. Although the future is uncertain, anything is far better than fighting for a rice ball and a cup of water in a cage.

Behind a metal door that suddenly opened, Mi Xuanlinzi saw that person. Although it was only a back view, it was enough to instill boundless fear in people.

"Lord Sougo, I've brought her!"

The lab technician bowed respectfully and then led Mi Genlin forward. Looking at the well-dressed woman, Sougo Ichiro couldn't wait to approach her and carefully examine this madman.

"Bring the adapter over here!"

"Oh right, and that useless thing we developed before!"

Sougo Ichiro casually ordered his men around the grove of Migen, clicking his tongue in amazement. It was as if he were admiring a priceless treasure. "Your name?!"

"Mi Xuan Linzi, sir!"

Mi Xuanlinzi bowed his head respectfully. Sougo Ichiro stood up and said, "I will give you everything you want, but you will have to sell your life to a museum, to some supreme emperor!"

"Understand?!"

"Yes!"

As they spoke, the lab technician retrieved the adapter and a delicate wristwatch. Unlike other watches, this one had a small connector in the center. This was an extremely useless device developed by the experimental department, inspired by the Earth Drivers worn by the officers. Even though the inspiration came from the Earth Drivers, this thing was a consumable. The original plan was to develop a new generation of Earth Drivers, but instead, they ended up with this!

It can briefly protect the user's rationality when the user mobilizes the power of the memory, but the more the user uses the power of the memory, the shorter the lifespan of this watch will become. It can also ensure that the memory will not be forcibly crushed by external force, but its cost is too high, and after a few are made, it is put on the shelf.

After the compatibility test, Sougo Ichiro retrieved a deep purple memory device with a serpentine "M" on it and personally handed it to Miko Miko, saying slowly, "Welcome to the museum!"

"Medusa!"

Having already put on his wristwatch, Mi Genlin pressed the memory key and inserted it into the wristwatch's slot. A deep purple light membrane rippled around him, and as the membrane expanded, a snake-haired hybrid covered in scales appeared before Sougo Ichiro.

Chapter 22: The defeated Shotaro!

Swah——

The curtains on the half-open window were lifted by the wind, and the morning breeze blew in from outside.

Inside, sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains, which weren't fully drawn. In a huge cat's bed that resembled a luxurious castle, the glaring sunlight made a plump cat with gray fur and a large, round head frown.

Miku's eyelids twitched, and he opened his eyes a crack.

The sunlight was shining on my face. I suddenly woke up and saw the sunlight. I immediately closed my eyes, which I had just opened, and reflexively raised my hand to block it. Then I closed my eyes again.

"It's already morning! I had a really good night's sleep!"

Miku yawned and lazily got up. After pressing a doorbell, a maid came in to serve him attentively. After taking a bath and having breakfast, Miku walked with his tail held high to the door of the main house, where a beautiful woman wearing a pleated skirt and with her round, full thighs encased in stockings was waiting.

Miku, who used to help Sougo Ichiro, took the day off today. Although there wasn't much for him to do there anyway.

He had promised Wakana to go shopping with her, which led to this scene, but the long wait made Wakana angry and her face turned into a bun.

"Let's go..." Miku, with a serious expression, came to Wakana's side, looking straight ahead without glancing to the side. However, judging from the tail sweeping back and forth behind him, this guy was extremely uneasy.

"Humph!"

.................

Narumi Detective Agency is located on the second floor of the Seagull Billiards Hall.

Shotaro was reading the morning newspaper, the coffee on the table steaming. "Morning is the start of the day, and starting the day with a newspaper and coffee is just too manly!" Shotaro, his eyes filled with rapt attention, took a small sip of coffee. Suddenly, the office door burst open, and a woman in a white dress with a ponytail shouted anxiously, "Hello, I have a request here, I'd like to entrust it to Mr. Narumi Shokichi!"

"Hey, Shotaro, hasn't Healing Princess aired yet today?!"

Philip pushed open the door to the inner garage and anxiously asked Shotaro, "What happened? Princess Wakana's show usually ends at this time!"

"But why wasn't it broadcast today?!"

Shotaro stood up and greeted Philip, saying, "There was a notification just now. It seems that Princess Wakana has something to do today, so she has taken the day off!"

"how so!"

"that?!"

The woman who had entered earlier tentatively asked, "Do you accept cases here?"

"Ah!" Shotaro scratched his head and forced a smile at the woman: "It was answered here!"

"Akiko, we have a guest! Come out quickly!"

After calming Philip down, Shotaro and the woman sat facing each other, with steaming cups of black tea on the table.

"Ahem, what requests do you have for us?!"

"Hello, my name is Asou Fuyumi, and I'm a bank employee!" Asou Higashimon introduced himself politely, then said angrily, "My request this time is for you to help me find Kamen Rider!"

Upon hearing this, Shotaro concealed his smug smile and whispered to Akiko, "I didn't expect that Philip and I would become so well-known in the city!"

"Yes, yes, other requests require a lot of work, but this one is just too simple!"

"After all, the Kamen Rider was right in front of her!"

"Boom!"

Fuyumi Aso slammed her hand on the table, her eyebrows furrowed in anger, and roared, "Kamen Riders are a cancer in Fuuto City, using their abilities to run rampant in the city!"

"What's even worse is that a few days ago, he attacked the bank where I work, stealing a large amount of cash and causing numerous injuries and deaths among the security guards!"

"This is absolutely unforgivable!"

Asou Fuyumi's righteous indignation deeply affected Shotaro, while Philip also got up from a bed inside, looking around. At that moment, Shotaro was filled with doubt. After all, as a Kamen Rider, he had always been busy protecting Fuuto, the city he loved so much; how could he possibly go back and hurt it?!

Thinking of this, a flash of inspiration struck Shotaro: someone was using his name to cause trouble in the city!

Thinking of this, Shotaro's eyes blazed with fury, and he puffed out his chest and said, "Ms. Aso, leave this to me!"

"I will never forgive anyone who makes this city weep, let alone someone who uses the name of Kamen Rider!"

"Then I'll leave it to you!"

After seeing Fuyumi Aso off, Shotaro took a hat off the door and hurriedly left, leaving Akiko standing there alone, tilting her head in thought.

"I have a feeling that there's something seriously wrong with Fuyumi Aso!"

....................

After running around searching for his intelligence agents, Shotaro finally found a clue at a bank that had been attacked. His old acquaintance, Officer Renno, was already guarding the place.

"Hey, Shotaro!"

Renno greeted him with a smile, while Shotaro went straight to the point and asked for information. After obtaining the relevant information, Shotaro wandered around the city in a fit of rage, eventually stopping at a pier near the sea.

After taking out the bat camera, press the bat mimicry memory button and insert it into the camera. The camera then transforms into a bat and flies away.

"No matter what, I won't let you run wild again!"

.......................

"Cai Cai, you don't seem very enthusiastic!"

In a private room at a beauty salon, Miku looked at Wakana, who was frowning, and asked softly, "What's...on your mind?!"

"Hmm?" Wakana, who was lying on the massage bed, suddenly came to her senses and forced a smile, "Nothing!"

"profound!"

"If anything happens...be sure to tell me, I'll help you!"

Miku, who was squatting down, stared wide-eyed at Wakana, his furry face full of seriousness.

"You're still the best, Miku!"

Wakana pulled Miku into her arms.

..........

"Drip drip!"

A signal came from Shotaro's phone. He quickly turned it on and stared at the screen with a look of surprise on his face.

In the video, a hybrid wearing a red mask is seen speeding along a ring road on a motorcycle.

"finally found you!"

Shotaro, now transformed, drove his motorcycle towards his target location.

On the ring expressway, next to an overturned armored truck.

The scattered banknotes should have been eye-catching, but no one paid any attention to them. All because of a red-masked figure, a hybrid of a demon carrying a broad, broken sword, his body wrapped in firearms, his right hand transforming into a rotary machine gun, grinning sinisterly at the bank teller slumped on the ground.

"Come on, guess who I am?!"

The cash transport clerk, who had heard a little about the guy in front of him, stammered in terror, "Fake...fake...fake...camouflage rider!"

"Correct answer!"

But there are no prizes!

Kurata Kenji spun around in place, turning the machine gun in his right hand, unleashing a torrent of fire and bullets. As sparks and smoke erupted from the ground, the cashier, his trousers soaked, screamed in terror.

"trigger!"

Upon seeing Kurata Kenji's violent intimidation from afar, Shotaro immediately drew his trigger memory and switched to Gale Trigger. A pale green bullet flew from the muzzle, pure wind-elemental energy surging towards Kurata Kenji like weary birds returning to their nests.

"bass!"

Kurata Kenji drew the broken sword from his back with his left hand and held it horizontally in front of his chest to block Shotaro's energy bullets. Then, the cylinder of his right hand gun spun rapidly, and a bright yellow flash appeared at the muzzle before the bullets were fired at an angle.

After disengaging the clutch and slamming on the brakes, Shotaro jerked the car around, sending it sliding sideways toward Kurata Kenji. Kurata Kenji simply laughed wildly, neither dodging nor avoiding the attack, and placed his right hand over his right eye. After a flash of light, Kurata Kenji deactivated his transformation.

Upon seeing the other party transform, Shotaro screamed and desperately flipped the motorcycle, narrowly missing Kurata Kenji. Kurata Kenji, whose trench coat was lifted by the wind from the motorcycle, took out the memory enhancer given to him by Sougo Ichiro from his pocket, embedded it in the memory, and then, laughing wildly, inserted it into the bio-connection port in the corner of his right eye.
