Yuanxiang smiled and casually pointed around, then said softly:
"As long as this place hasn't been demolished when I come back, that's fine."
"Okay, have a safe trip and come back soon."
"OK, see you later."
After a swift and decisive farewell, and witnessing that the Cangxuan Danzhu had successfully integrated into his body, Yuanxiang once again appeared on the rooftop of the building. At that moment, Shijima had just stood up and, after stretching for a few moments, raised an eyebrow at the suddenly appearing Kamen Rider Joker and said softly:
Is that all?
"Yes, it's all arranged."
Gengo nodded, then ignored Shijima Tsuyoshi beside him, switched 'Joker' to 'Cyclone', looked up at the sky, and opened his arms.
"What the heck?! You're not... Wow!!!"
Shijima Tsuyoshi looked at the familiar emerald green figure and couldn't help but want to complain. After all, someone had just denied this incarnation. But before he could finish speaking, a terrifying gust of wind suddenly erupted from Gengo's body, instantly pressing Shijima Tsuyoshi against the wall. This Kamen Rider Mach tried his best to keep his facial muscles normal so that his lips wouldn't be blown open, revealing his teeth and gums, which would be too unsightly.
At the same time, he also saw strands of data, like elves, descending from the sky and surrounding Yuanxiang in the gale. To his surprise, those data streams naturally merged into his body, thus helping him to create an even bigger storm.
However, Genji, who was in the eye of the storm, sensed something unusual. He was using the 'Earth Library' to search for detailed data about when Shijima first arrived in this world, and then using inversion to open a spacetime passage to his other world. This was no small project, nor was it an easy task. With 'Glory' unstable,' the idea of achieving this through 'blankness' made Genji's expression change slightly.
However, at that moment, that strange aura inexplicably came. It wasn't aimed at him, but rather used some means that even Yuanxiang couldn't understand to help him complete this inversion. It has to be said that this really saved Yuanxiang a lot of effort.
When the world gate, as dazzling as the aurora borealis, opened again, he curiously followed the direction of the aura and found Sakura Kinomoto and Tomoyo Daidouji standing outside his office. They must have come to visit during their free time. However, he didn't expect that Sakura would sense the abnormality of the 'wind' as soon as she arrived. The strange aura also came from the book in her hand. Without a doubt, it was the 'Creation Card'. Although he didn't know what she had written on it, she deserved some credit for opening this world gate.
"Sakura, thank you."
Genji's lips moved slightly, and the wind carried his words to the child's side, gently smoothing her hair before pulling Shijima Tsuyoshi along. They passed through the Gate of the World and disappeared into the City of Wind. After all, maintaining this gate required considerable power, and Genji was not about to overdraw his strength and lose his memory.
"They actually came back?! Hey, isn't that a bit too much? How did they do that?!"
After the blinding light flashed, Shijima looked at the familiar scene around him, scratched his head in disbelief, turned around, and looked at Genji in an incredulous tone. But at that moment, he noticed that the black knight had deactivated his transformation and revealed the appearance of a boy. Although his face was a little pale, he still looked somewhat naive.
"Simple data reverse engineering—it's like comparing apples and oranges; just knowing this is enough, cough cough cough!!!"
Gengo coughed, turning his head to spit out a mouthful of blood. At the same time, white smoke flashed from his sleeve, erasing the 'Joker' power from the blood. He then looked up at Shijima and said:
"I'm a detective in Fuuto, so do I need any help?"
"...Of course we need to, but I think we should go to the Special Cases Division first."
The Special Case Division, officially known as the "Special Cases Investigation Division," is a department established by the Metropolitan Police Department. Its headquarters are located within the Kuruma Driving License Examination Center, and it is specifically responsible for investigating special incidents related to "heavy acceleration."
However, although nominally under the police department, the investigation work was not highly valued or recognized within the Metropolitan Police Department. It was questioned whether any so-called "strange incidents" had ever occurred, and was even criticized for being ineffective due to the existence of Kamen Rider.
Shijima Go's sister is also one of them, so it's only natural for her to go there to let them know she's safe. But more importantly, no matter what, even though the Special Investigations Division is not subject to penalties within the police department, the medical resources they can access are quite plentiful. So, they should hurry up and get this Kamen Rider Joker checked out first; it feels like he's about to die!
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say here. After all, I'm an outsider and not very familiar with this place."
Yuanxiang shrugged and said casually:
"Of course, I would also like to hear more about Roidmude. After all, I have only met one Roidmude before, and a part cannot represent the whole. So I am quite curious about how far the situation has developed here."
"Ha... well, let me explain it to you briefly."
Shijima sighed helplessly, pressing his phone as he recounted the speech he had prepared on the rooftop. However, the first thing he mentioned was something called Core-Driviar, a light-type drive mechanism developed by Dr. Kurim Steinbert. The occurrence and cancellation of 'heavy acceleration' are also generated by this drive mechanism. Although different in size and characteristics, it has become a common power source for Kamen Riders, mechanical mutants, and the like.
Heavy Acceleration is a reduction in relative speed caused by the "core drive mechanism". All objects move at a slower speed. Humans, while maintaining consciousness, will only move their bodies slowly. However, Kamen Riders and mechanical mutants can move at normal speeds under Heavy Acceleration.
So from a certain perspective, both the mechanical mutants and the Kamen Riders on Shijima's side are acting in an accelerated state.
However, when the 're-acceleration' state deepens to a certain point, everyone affected will be in a state of absolute stillness, unable to move their bodies, while their consciousness remains clear. People are essentially frozen, which is the ultimate goal that Roidmude wants to achieve—'global freeze'!
"That's why my brother-in-law and I have to deal with those damned Roidmude. They've caused a lot of trouble since they were created."
Shijima Tsuyoshi crossed his arms behind his head and stretched, speaking casually as if he were discussing where to eat ramen that evening. But Gengo, standing beside him, raised an eyebrow and looked at Shijima Tsuyoshi, saying softly:
Is it really that simple?
"Ok?"
Shijima turned to look at Genji in surprise, and said in confusion:
"It's that simple, what did you think?"
"Then I might be mistaken."
Yuanxiang coughed, covering his mouth, and white smoke rose again from his sleeve. After catching his breath, he said softly:
"Just now I sensed a vengeful aura emanating from you, which was quite intimidating. So I was wondering if there was something more to say that I was waiting to respond. Since you've said that, I guess I was just being too sensitive. Sorry."
"...It's okay, I forgive you."
Upon hearing Gengo's words, Shijima Tsuyoshi's eyes flickered for a moment, then he replied in a casual tone. However, after turning his head away, he pursed his lips, seemingly lost in thought, and a resolute look suddenly appeared in his eyes. Gengo, on the other hand, was pondering the matter of 're-acceleration'. Heart had mentioned this to him before, but at that time he was busy dealing with the incident caused by Shinichi, and Heart's own abilities had not yet awakened, so Gengo hadn't paid much attention to it.
Now that Roidmude has become the enemy, I need to think carefully about whether this 're-acceleration' is a time-based ability. If it is, then my 'time resistance' should be effective in the battle against Roidmude. But if it isn't, then how should I deal with it? After all, he doesn't have Core-Driviar. I can't just copy the data and conjure one up on the spot.
377 Reunion with Takeru Tenkuuji
Gengo couldn't quite understand the underlying principle, but he didn't dwell on it too much. After all, he was confident he could handle the heavy acceleration of the Roidmude (mechanical mutant) in any form. At that moment, Shijima had already brought Gengo to the entrance of the police station. The boy subconsciously stopped and waited for the next procedure. After all, there were still some procedures to follow when entering the police station.
However, as he watched Shidao walk in with such ease and the surrounding police not say anything, Yuanxiang raised an eyebrow in surprise. In any case, this seemed quite different from Fengdu.
"What are you standing there for? Come here now!"
Shijima dusted himself off and waved to Genji, saying:
"Don't be nervous. After a few more visits, this place will feel like home. Hurry up."
Aren't you taking it a little too easy?
Gengo silently complained to himself, but he didn't put down his feet and followed him into the police station. During this process, the police noticed Shijima and Gengo, but they didn't say anything. The boy also noticed the unfriendly looks in their eyes, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
However, since Shijima didn't say anything, Gengo naturally wouldn't cause any more trouble. He followed behind Kamen Rider Mach, turning around and around in the police station. The more they walked, the more they felt that they were moving towards the side or back door of the police station. But in the end, they didn't leave the police station. Instead, they came to a small office. The small room had several tables and other things, making it look too crowded.
"Haha! Today is a very auspicious day!"
An elderly man in a police uniform sat in the middle of the office. He seemed to be in charge, but he wasn't busy with his work or looking at Shijima Tsuyoshi and Gengo who had just entered. Instead, he was holding his phone, seemingly excited about the divination results from a mobile app.
"Inspector, where's my sister?"
Shijima casually found a chair and sat down, his left leg crossed over his right, flipping through the text beside him. Just before arriving at the police station, Gengo had used 'Luna's' power to repair the man's jacket, so he didn't seem to have suffered any setbacks. It was precisely because of this that the old policeman said nonchalantly:
"Wuzi went out with you to arrest someone, didn't she? She hasn't come back. What happened? Is something wrong?"
"No, I sent my sister a message asking her to help me reserve some things. Didn't she tell you?"
Upon hearing the old policeman's words, Shijima realized that he might not have been missing for long, so he casually changed the subject, saying:
"If you didn't mention it, could you please help me make an appointment for that little brat over there, a medical check-up?! !!!!"
Before he could finish speaking, a crisp sound rang out. Shijima Tsuyoshi cried out in pain, clutching the back of his head and jumping up. Genjiro, expressionless, slowly withdrew his finger from the forehead, giving the startled old policeman a gentle smile. After recovering from the ringing in his head, Shijima Tsuyoshi rubbed the spot where he had been flicked and said somewhat angrily:
"What are you doing! Using so much force will hurt like hell!"
"I'm seventeen years old now, isn't it a bit inappropriate to call me a little kid?"
Yuanxiang glanced sideways, but his smile remained unchanged as he said:
"Or do you think I look like a child?"
"........."
Although he desperately wanted to admit it, looking at Gengo's smiling face, Shijima felt immense pressure. It was as if the man was ready to continue pounding his head if he dared to nod. So Shijima silently shifted his gaze to the side, pretending not to hear anything and whistling. Then, Gengo looked at the old policeman and said softly:
"Don't worry about it. I know my body. It's just a minor accident, and I'll heal on my own in no time, so there's no need for a doctor's checkup..."
"Wow! You guys have such a relaxed atmosphere here!"
Just as Yuanxiang was explaining the situation to the old police inspector, the door to the Special Investigations Division was suddenly pushed open. A bespectacled man with neatly combed hair and a small fan in his hand walked in with a very hypocritical smile. He looked around as if he were an upper-class person inspecting a slum, and said in a disdainful tone:
"Is your Special Investigations Division taking the police station's mission too lightly? You clearly said in the meeting that you would definitely solve the recent strange incidents, but we haven't heard any news about it yet."
"This kind of thing is none of your concern, Section Chief Renliang."
The veteran inspector put down his phone, crossed his arms, and said in a relatively kind tone:
"Whether we're making any efforts to resolve the case or whether there's been any breakthrough, our Special Investigations Unit will give the police station an explanation later. So, is there anything else?"
"what."
Section Chief Renliang, holding a fan, chuckled contemptuously, seemingly quite dissatisfied with this explanation and even considering making a sarcastic remark. At this moment, his gaze fell on Shijima Takeshi beside him, but after thinking about it, he decided against it. Shijima Takeshi had apparently studied in the United States, and his teacher was a rather impressive PhD. Apart from his sister Shijima Kiriko, he didn't know much about Shijima Takeshi's network of connections, and there was no need to invite any potential trouble for himself.
So, he turned his gaze to Gensou. To be fair, Gensou was quite frugal when it came to clothing. He would generally not buy a new set of clothes until they were worn out or faded from washing, except for formal attire, which was his livelihood. But today he was wearing casual clothes, so he looked rather shabby. And now, this seemed to be the source of this kind-hearted section chief's teasing of Gensou.
However, just before he could speak, Gengo slowly raised his head, his cold gaze meeting that of Section Chief Jinliang. In that instant, even Shijima Tsuyoshi, sitting next to him, couldn't help but pull his coat tighter, somewhat overwhelmed by the intimidating aura emanating from the young man. Gengo, expressionless and without inflection, said:
"Is something wrong?"
".....No."
Section Chief Renliang's throat bobbed a few times, as if he had several sets of words on the tip of his tongue but swallowed them back in that short time. In the end, he answered honestly. Yuanxiang tapped the table lightly. Although the sound was not loud, it became quite jarring in the quiet office at this moment, and even people's hearts trembled.
"Then I won't bother you any longer. Please continue."
Gengo quickly ended the conversation, but the atmosphere in the office continued to grow increasingly tense. Section Chief Jinliang's forehead was covered in sweat. He didn't say another word and turned to leave. At the same time, the atmosphere in the Special Investigations Division immediately lightened, like a warm spring after a cold winter. Shijima breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say something to Gengo when he saw Gengo's brow furrowed as he looked in the direction Section Chief Jinliang had left, a hint of murderous intent in his eyes. This made Shijima hesitate, and after a moment's thought, he cautiously said:
"Well, that person is indeed a bit annoying, but... that's all."
"No, he..."
Yuanxiang was about to say something, but suddenly stopped, shook his head, and said:
"Forget about that for now. Are you going to find your sister? To be honest, I'm really interested in the mission your Special Investigations Division has taken over. What kind of incident could have prompted that guy to come here and be so sarcastic?"
"In that case, Xiao Gang, you should take this gentleman to find Xiao Bo and the others."
At this moment, the old police inspector smiled and said to Shijima Tsuyoshi:
"Although I'm reluctant to say this, having outside help at this time would be a huge help."
"Hey, let me make this clear first."
Shidao glanced at Yuanxiang and said softly:
"The place we're going to is quite remote. If you suddenly feel unwell, the ambulance might not be able to get there in time."
"It's alright, don't worry, I have no intention of dying right now."
Gengo smiled and waved his hand. Since he had said so, Shijima didn't say anything more, and was about to take the boy off on his motorcycle, but at this moment...
'Poke, poke, poke...'
"Um?!"
