Well, the feeling of being used as an indicator is quite subtle.

Gengo scratched the back of his head. The ideas of the X Foundation have been wildly imaginative for a long time, so there was nothing to criticize about the content of this plan. Now he was just curious: was that strange Joker really a product of that plan?

The answer is incorrect.

Miki Daidou reviewed all the experimental records of this project. No Kamen Rider was successfully created in the simulated Fuuto. It can be said that this thing has no results except burning money. Therefore, it will soon be stopped by the Foundation X. Even the experimental personnel will be transferred to other experimental projects.

But just as the researchers destroyed the simulated Fuuto and shut down the project, the terrifying Kamen Rider Joker appeared. In just two minutes, the entire experimental base, including the adjacent South American branch, was destroyed, leaving not even a foundation. If it weren't for the base's internal surveillance system directly uploading data to the terminal, no one would know how it disappeared.

"This...it's definitely not me."

Yuanxiang thought about it carefully and said:

"The more I fight, the more I understand myself. Although this guy is holding the Joker, I didn't do this. I didn't even sense him when he appeared."

"I understand that too."

At this moment, Daido Katsumi composed himself, his somewhat out-of-control expression vanished, and looked seriously at Gensou, saying:

“But Gengo, you have to understand that almost everyone in the Zaibatsu X and the forces behind it understands that the ‘Joker’ will only fall into the hands of the ‘Ace of Fate’. With current technology, this is something that cannot be solved. So you have to be careful. If this strange Joker appears in other places, you will inevitably be blamed.”

"Ah."

Gengo nodded seriously. This was just an experiment, nothing to worry about. Anyway, it was all Zaibatsu X's stuff that was destroyed. He even wanted to go out for a stroll to celebrate. But if the Joker appeared in an ordinary city next time and caused chaos, he would be speechless. Then Kamen Rider Joker would truly become the representative of evil.

"But you don't need to worry too much."

Dao Keji sighed and said:

“During this time, my mother and I also tried to recreate this experiment to see if we could bring out the strange Joker, but after three attempts, nothing happened. Maybe it was really some kind of accident or coincidence that caused that thing to appear.”

That's true, but we still need to be careful.

Yuanxiang sighed and fiddled with the key ring next to him with his finger, saying:

"To be honest, I'm really bad at manipulating public opinion. If that kind of bad situation really happens, I'll be pretty much dead."

"You're really unlucky. Alright, alright, open your eyes and clear your mind."

Dao Keji waved his hand and said:

"You're not alone now. We're still here. If anything happens, call me right away. Don't try to tough it out by yourself, okay?"

"Don't worry, I'm being very good now."

Yuanxiang laughed and joked with Dadao Keji, saying:

"The most important thing is that I feel like there's no one in Fengdu I can't beat right now, don't you think?"

"Look how capable you are. Let's spar a bit after I'm done with my work."

Dao Keji reached out and flicked Genji's forehead on the screen, laughing as he said:

"Alright, the important things have been conveyed. Let's end this conversation now. It must be very late where you are. Get some sleep."

"I don't mind. If you're free, I can chat with you for a few dollars. By the way, Keji, let's get serious."

? !

Upon hearing this request, Daido Katsuji paused for a moment, then followed the instructions. Gensho seized the opportunity to take a screenshot, saved it with a note, and said with a smile:

"Okay, I've saved your handsome picture. We can reminisce about it together in the future. Okay, I'm hanging up now."

"Wait a minute, explain yourself clearly..."

'drop'

Before Daido Katsumi could finish speaking, Gengo hung up the phone with practiced ease. He could practically picture Daido Katsumi's expression at that moment, and he couldn't help but laugh. However, after a few laughs, Gengo fell silent, gazing at the bright moon outside the window, and pursed his lips.

Who exactly is this Joker...?

272 Visiting an old friend

Gengo leaned back in his chair, pondering all sorts of random things until dawn. After stretching a bit, he slowly went to open the door. Just then, Takamachi Nanoha, dressed in her morning exercise clothes, also came out of her house. Upon seeing Gengo, she happily waved and greeted him. Then, the two of them, one big and one small, held hands and went to find Yagami Hayate to prepare for their morning exercise.

Today, Nanoha Takamachi and Hayate Yagami adopted a strategy of all-out attack, abandoning all defense and launching an attack on Genji. However, this was exactly what Genji was good at. With the addition of the new 'cyclone', the two girls were defeated even faster than yesterday. After they finished fighting, they still looked a bit doubtful about their lives. Genji wondered if he had bullied them too much by directly using the new form. But then he thought, it's all training anyway, so it doesn't matter if this thing is a bit stronger. At least they have adapted to their own rhythm, and at least they won't have any major mental problems when facing other enemies in the future.

Yes, that's right. Let's take out 'fang·fang' tomorrow and let them try it out. I believe that the power of void destruction will definitely bring them a surprise.

"Brother Yuanxiang..."

Suddenly, Nanoha Takamachi looked at Genji and said quietly:

"Are you thinking of something naughty...?"

"No, no, there isn't."

Gensou chuckled and gently patted Takamachi Nanoha's head, saying with a smile:

"This is all for training, hahaha!!!!"

"Ugh... Gensou-nii, your wickedness is practically overflowing."

Nanoha Takamachi pouted and protested a little to Gengo, then happily went to Hayate Yagami's house for breakfast. Although she felt a little embarrassed to trouble him like that, Hayate's cooking was really good.

"By the way, Nanoha, what criteria do you use to invite people to your group?"

At the dinner table, Hayate Yagami continued the conversation they hadn't finished discussing last time:

"I always feel that the basic standard for joining the group is women. Look, there isn't a single guy in your group."

"Well... I can't say for sure..."

Nanoha Takamachi smiled helplessly and said:

"Everyone was confused about joining the group. There was no relevant information in the group, especially after this maintenance. The group items that were unusable but whose functions could still be viewed were all hidden, as if they were afraid of us, no, afraid that Sakura would find bugs in them."

From a certain perspective, this makes sense.

Gengo recalled Kinomoto Sakura's incredible luck and nodded silently in agreement. If the real entity of that dimensional chat group could actually speak, he might be able to find a lot of common ground with Linfus.

"By the way, Nanoha, how are those two new members getting along with you guys?"

At this moment, Yuanxiang's curiosity was also piqued. After taking a sip of porridge, he asked:

"Are you guys planning to visit each other again?"

"Hehehe..."

Nanoha Takamachi smiled sheepishly, realizing that she had just met everyone. However, Madoka Kaname and Illya were both easy-going children. Once they got to know each other better, they would probably explore each other's worlds together.

Of course, they have to wait until they have accumulated enough group points.

"That's good. There are far fewer weirdos in Fuuto now. When everyone comes this time, we can definitely have a great time without worrying about anything causing trouble."

Hayate Yagami, standing to the side, chuckled and poured Gensou a cup of tea, saying:

"I still remember when we first moved here, things were quite turbulent in Fengdu."

I think the main reason is that those guys were terrified by the Battle of the Sky Rift...

Gengo took a sip of tea with a subtle expression. In any case, Kamen Rider Joker still has a lot of intimidation power, especially after Kamen Riders like Tsukasa Kadoya also appeared.

However, a very subtle problem has arisen. The so-called Kamen Rider fan clubs have started an endless debate about which Kamen Rider is the strongest. But recently, the debate seems to have taken a wrong turn. Compared to strength, they seem to care more about whether the pink (magenta) Kamen Rider is male or female.

Hmm, I'll organize these comments later and use them to tease Tsukasa Kadoya.

After breakfast, Gengo returned to his office to prepare for the day's work. Business was surprisingly good; he received three requests, none of which were too troublesome for Gengo at the moment, and he easily received his payment. After the moonlight came on, Gengo declined his guests' invitation to have dinner together, returned to his office, stretched, leaned back in his chair, looked at the door for a moment, got up, walked over, and opened the passage to the Demon Slayer Corps.

Looking at the ancient buildings around him, Gensou couldn't help but feel a little emotional. When he first came to this world, he saved Kanae Kocho, which also started his journey through various worlds, and he made many friends along the way.

Well, it's just that we've probably forgotten a lot of the past between us now.

Gengo walked along the street, wanting to visit the Demon Slayer Corps members, but unfortunately, he had forgotten Kagaya Ubuyashiki's address and how to get to the base he had stayed at before. He could only wander aimlessly, hoping to run into an old acquaintance.

This time, Yuanxiang was lucky. After walking around the bustling city for a long time, he wanted to find a quiet place to sit for a while. Unexpectedly, he saw Beimingyu Xingming, a blind man sitting in a small pavilion in the woods. He didn't know if he was waiting for someone or simply chanting sutras there.

Wait a minute, this guy carries prayer beads every day, but I don't think I've ever seen him chanting scriptures. Am I misunderstanding something about monks in this era?

Yuanxiang scratched the back of his head, thought for a moment, then spread his hands and shrugged.

Why worry about so much? If Himejima Gyomei really keeps chanting scriptures around here every day, I'll really get a headache.

"Friend over there, is there something you need? You've been watching me since just now."

At this moment, Himejima Gyomei put down the prayer beads in his hand and looked at the location of Gensou. Even though there was no longer any need to kill demons, this guy did not seem to have given up practicing his breathing technique, and his physique seemed to have become stronger.

"Hey, Beiming Island, long time no see. How have you been lately?"

Yuanxiang walked over with a smile, sat down opposite the monk, and unceremoniously flicked his prayer beads, saying:

"You're staying here so late at night. Did you find the temple too noisy and run away on your own?"

"...Mr. Gensou?"

"Ah~~~ Judging from your tone, it seems you don't remember me either, right?"

Hearing the slightly distant and unfamiliar way Himejima addressed him, Gengo sighed helplessly and looked at him with a smile, saying:

"But you can still call me by name, so it seems there are still people here who remember me. Let me guess, is it the Butterfly Sisters, or your lord?"

“All three of them remember you, except for Kanae’s Pillars who have forgotten you.”

Beiming Island hesitated for a moment before answering truthfully. Although he genuinely had no recollection of it, the familiar tone and the fact that he didn't feel any aversion towards this 'stranger' made the monk lower his guard somewhat. He said softly:

"I'm sorry, it was you, Tsukasa Kadoya, and Daiki Kaito who helped us defeat the Demon King, but we forgot about you."

"There's no need to blame yourself. You'll forget. It's mainly because of my side. I encountered some troublesome enemies, so you've lost your memories related to me."

Gensou patted Himejima Gyomei on the shoulder and said:

How is your lord's health lately?

"My lord is doing very well."

When this topic came up, Himejima Gyomei revealed a genuinely happy smile and said:

"With the death of the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji, the curse on the Lord's family has been lifted. After this period of careful recuperation, I believe the Lord's lifespan can be extended for a very, very long time."

"That's good. By the way, could you take me to see your master, and then take me to see the Butterfly House? I've forgotten how to get there."

After saying this, Gengo noticed a slight change in Himejima Gyomei's expression. He realized that Gyomei still didn't quite trust him and didn't want to let a complete stranger like him meet Ubuyashiki Kagaya. Himejima Gyomei seemed to sense Gengo's thoughts and quickly said:

“It’s not that I’m unwilling, it’s just that… in order to better recuperate, my lord has temporarily moved to another place, and the three children from Butterfly House have gone with him. Ren said that he shouldn’t go to the other side of the door for about a month, and someone is very busy every day and probably won’t have time to come and play with them. It would be better to pay more attention to my lord’s health first.”

It was clear that Gyomei Himejima was genuinely afraid that Gengo would misunderstand. This burly man had managed to mimic Shinobu Kocho's voice in a strained, high-pitched voice. To be honest, although it was really inappropriate, Gengo almost burst out laughing.
