Outside the 9-to-5 restaurant, Tokiwa Junichiro was happily walking back with a full load of ingredients. He had obtained some rather rare ingredients today, and if he made them into a dish, it would definitely taste good. Sougo had been inexplicably irritable since he woke up this morning, and he believed that this would surely make him smile again!
Just then, Tokiwa Junichiro felt a gust of wind suddenly hit his face. He vaguely sensed that someone had darted past, but before he could react, he saw his child running wildly out of the house toward a roll of newspaper.
"Yuanxiang!!! Stop right there!!!"
"village......."
Tokiwa Junichiro watched Tokiwa Sougo disappear into the distance and shook his head helplessly.
"Seriously, slow down! What if you fall? By the way, is Genji here yet? Hahaha, great! He can have a taste of these ingredients now! Sougo! Genji! Don't forget to come back for dinner!!"
Hearing the voice behind him, Tokiwa Sougo, disregarding whether his uncle could see him or not, made an 'OK' sign and then chased after Genji even more diligently, and then...
"Your recent workouts have been very effective."
Gengo squatted on the grass and gently poked Tokiwa Sougo's cheek, who was panting and covered in sweat, and said:
"This really surprised me. I thought it would take you at least ten days or half a month to do it."
"This... haha... it's all fine..."
Tokiwa Sougo, panting heavily, tapped Gengo's head with a rolled-up newspaper and said:
"Delete it for me, haha... Hurry up!"
"Don't get agitated."
Gengo opened his phone's photo album, waved it at Tokiwa Sougo, and said:
"I didn't take any pictures, I was just trying to scare you."
"Ha... Gensou, you are."
After confirming that no photos had been taken, Tokiwa Sougo breathed a sigh of relief, tossed the rolled-up newspaper aside, draped his arm over his forehead to shield his eyes from the sunlight, and said helplessly:
"Why are you playing pranks like a little kid? Give me back that aloof and mysterious image you had before!"
"Hmph, that's impossible."
Gengo smiled and used ripples to soothe Tokiwa Sougo's fatigue, saying softly:
"You'll have to get used to this. I'm not that serious in front of people I know well. But of course, I'll be careful about pranks. To be honest, I don't play pranks very often."
really?I do not believe.
Tokiwa Sougo glared at Gengo, then grabbed the boy's hand, stood up, brushed the grass clippings and dust off his clothes, and then, as if remembering something, looked at Gengo and said:
"Speaking of which, Genji, your... um... that ability, you mean Ripple?"
"Of course not, this is just one of my auxiliary abilities. What? Want to see the real one?"
As he spoke, Gengo took out the Lost Driver, waved it at Tokiwa Sougo, and said with a smile:
"Watch closely, this is my transformation! Riderhenshin!"
'joker'
As black fragments clung to Genji's body, the jet-black Kamen Rider appeared before Tokiwa Sougo for the first time. The high school student's eyes lit up instantly. He stared intently at Genji, and after receiving permission, he couldn't contain his excitement. He stepped forward and stroked the Rider armor, shouting excitedly:
"Yuanxiang, your outfit looks a little strange at first glance, but it still makes you look really cool."
"Don't look at it."
Gengo flicked Tokiwa Sougo's forehead lightly with his finger and said:
"These things are almost all bound to me, so you can't use them. You should focus on your studies now. When you're really going to become a 'king' someday, we'll consider finding you a Gaia Memory with a high compatibility for protection."
"Then bring it over now."
Tokiwa Sougo confidently extended his hand towards Genji and said:
"I will definitely become king, so this gift of yours is hereby granted! Genji, what's wrong with you... Genji?"
Just as Tokiwa Sougo was about to argue with Gengo, he suddenly noticed that the person in front of him was acting strangely, as if he was rummaging through something. Finally, a broken Gaia Memory appeared in front of him.
"This is 'time'."
Gengo deactivated his transformation and looked at the memory with a strange expression. This was something he had created on the spot when he fought Nightmare, but the data on 'time' was really huge and difficult to define, so this memory was not further developed afterward. After 'cyclone' was further enhanced, Gengo got the same answer for the time being.
To Genji's surprise, this memory resonated with Tokiwa Sougo. Frankly, this was quite absurd, considering that the memory had been determined to be completely damaged during the examination. Was the compatibility between Sougo and 'time' beyond imagination? But why didn't it react last time? Was it because of his growth during this period?
Gengo scratched his cheek thoughtfully, then placed the damaged memory in Tokiwa Sougo's hand and said softly:
"It seems this child likes you quite a bit, but..."
Gengo earnestly explained the matter of 'time' to Tokiwa Sougo, and then said seriously:
“I will try to improve the storage method of 'time' and create a usable memory. You can take this for now, after all, this child chose you.”
choose?
Tokiwa Sougo nodded in agreement, but his gaze towards the memory was somewhat confused. Although it was only for a moment, what he felt was not selection or closeness, but rather... that feeling... how to describe it? It was like... like the feeling of encountering one's parents after failing an exam. Was this... really me being chosen?
276. Kirisu Mafuyu's Request
"What's wrong, Sougo?"
Gengo noticed Tokiwa Sougo's absent-mindedness and couldn't help but ask him curiously. The high school student who wanted to become king shook his head, solemnly put "time" in his pocket, and then patted Gengo on the shoulder, saying:
"Alright, alright, by the time we get back, Uncle's meal will be almost ready. Let's have another competition now."
Tokiwa Sougo wiped his nose and said with a smile:
Let's see who goes back first.
"Then you're doomed to lose."
Gengo gave Tokiwa Sougo a fake Zhang-like smile, then assumed a starting position and looked at the high school student beside him, saying:
"Ready, set, go!"
........
A moment later, Gengo returned to the agency, patting his round belly. Although Tokiwa Sougo had made great progress, he was still inferior to him, even though that little guy... wait.
Thinking of this, Gengo suddenly paused, then pinched his chin and frowned slightly. Come to think of it, he didn't seem to have asked Tokiwa Sougo how old he was yet. Was it a bit inappropriate to call him "little guy"? But then he thought about it again and silently ignored the question. After all, his birthday was too late, and he was usually at a disadvantage when compared to people who looked about the same age.
so!
He'd just assume Tokiwa Sougo was younger than him, and he could settle things properly with him when Tokiwa Sougo realized it himself.
Hmm~~~~
Gensho stretched slightly, looking at the sunlight outside the window. He felt that pulling up a chair and taking a nap in the sun would be perfect, but he wasn't very sleepy, so he gave up on that idea. Counting that the door still had a few uses left, Gensho decided to visit an old friend and end his friend-seeking journey for the day, but...
"Yusuke came back and stayed for a few days recently."
In the police station, Kaoru Ichijo looked helplessly at the boy in front of him and said:
“I also told him about your visit, and he agreed readily, saying he probably wouldn’t be going on another trip anytime soon. But his sister said that Yusuke met a friend the night before last and left in a hurry. Gengo, this really is just bad luck.”
"Haha, it's nothing, it's nothing. After all, compared to everyone else, I seem to be the one with more free time."
Yuanxiang chuckled and waved his hand, saying:
"And the matter that can make Mr. Godai so anxious must be an important matter that cannot be delayed. So please, Mr. Ichijo, pass this on to Mr. Godai."
The boy smiled and handed the gift to Kaoru Ichijo. Then, he smiled slightly at the policeman, reached behind his back, made a "whoosh" sound, and produced another gift, placing it in Kaoru's hand while giving her a thumbs-up and saying:
"This is a gift for Mr. Yitiao. I hope you will like it."
"Is this for me?"
Kaoru looked at the packaging with surprise, smiled gently, held the gift in one hand, and with the other, gave a thumbs-up in response:
"It will definitely suit my taste. I like anything that Yuanxiang sends me."
Hehehe~~~
Gengo scratched the back of his head, gave Ichijo Kaoru a sheepish smile, then waved goodbye to the policeman and prepared to return to the office. And then...
"Hey, isn't this our little detective?"
A passing policeman smiled and waved at Yuanxiang, then patted his little head and said:
"It's been a long time! I haven't had a chance to tell you until now. Thank you so much for your help with the matter of the unknown life form."
"Yes, yes."
The policewoman next to him also stopped, chuckled, and poked Yuanxiang's cheek, saying:
"You're a little hero, and a really cute one at that~~"
"Ok!"
At this moment, another burly policeman joined the group, looking at Yuanxiang with admiration and saying:
"Why don't you quit being a detective and come work for us? You're so young, you're bound to achieve great things in the future. If you come, I'll train you and guarantee to cultivate a strong sense of masculinity in you!"
"Hey~~~ Makino-senpai, your manly spirit isn't just about drinking, is it? Kogensato is so cute, don't let him become an alcoholic like Makino-ga-gorilla."
"Senior Makino, I won't say much else. Next time your wife calls after drinking, if you dare to openly admit that you're drinking, I'll admit you have manly spirit."
"I...I...I was just respecting my wife. You bunch of unmarried kids, if you don't understand, don't talk!"
Looking at the police officers laughing and joking around him, Yuanxiang's smile couldn't help but brighten. Although he really wanted to object to the nickname 'Little Yuanxiang,' well... he was just so happy that he decided to ignore it.
In the end, Yuanxiang returned to the office carrying several bags of peaches. He didn't know how the police officers knew he liked peaches. And he wasn't actually that fond of peaches anymore, but regardless, he truly felt their affection. Haha... it all felt like a dream.
Ok?
Just as Gengo was stuffing all the peaches into the refrigerator, intending to slack off, he suddenly noticed missed calls on his phone from Kirisu Mafuyu. The calls had been repeated several times, which immediately put Gengo on alert. This might be a secret signal from Kirisu-sensei to ask him to cooperate in a charade, since Kirisu-sensei wasn't home yet, and who knew what she had encountered at home.
Thinking of this, Yuanxiang cleared his throat and started recording, intending to tease his teacher later. Then he dialed the number:
"Oh~~~ My dear Tong..."
"Wait!! Yuanxiang! Don't bother dealing with my family!"
The call was answered instantly, and before Gensou could even speak, Kirisu Mafuyu's urgent voice came through:
"Um, have you been busy lately?"
"Me? I just finished my work, so there shouldn't be any new troubles for now."
Yuanxiang sat down in the chair, swaying back and forth, and said:
