"Run! Success! Run now!"

The man tried his best to hold off the murderer and buy time for his family to escape, but he was too weak and was thrown out in the blink of an eye.

"Why?! Why did you do that?!"

With nowhere to run, the mother and child quickly clung to each other, watching the murderer slowly approach, playing with his fingers. The mother cried out in despair:

"Please, spare my child! Please, please!!!"

"very good....."

The man with blackened lips looked at the mother and child, his eyes filled with even more intense joy and pleasure. He murmured in a blissful voice:

"The more you suffer, the happier I am..."

Having said that, he seemed unable to control his expression, his cheek twitching slightly as he eagerly walked forward. At the same time, he shed his human disguise, revealing what appeared to be an inscription on his face.

Upon witnessing this scene, the mother, who was already on the verge of collapse, fainted. Helpless, Yamada Naruya could only hold his mother and cry out helplessly as the unidentified life form approached.

"Joker! Maximum Drive!"

At that moment, accompanied by a sudden, deadly shout, a torrential downpour of energy blasts rained down, blocking the path of Unidentified Life Form No. 42.

At the same time, a blue figure somersaulted out of the nearby rocks and turned black in mid-air. With a loud shout, purplish-black flames surged from the newcomer's feet and kicked towards the unidentified life form trapped in place.

Even though it was a surprise attack, the enemy's reaction and speed still exceeded Gensato's expectations. The unidentified life form No. 42 actually found the gap in the hail of bullets with perfect accuracy in such a short time and turned danger into safety with ease.

At the same time, she also pulled several white ornaments resembling canine teeth from the necklace on her chest and threw them at Yuanxiang. As soon as the projectiles left her hand, they suddenly transformed into thick, long spikes, moving with astonishing speed, as fast as lightning.

Genji landed just as the attack was anticipated, and before he could dodge, he could only raise his hand to block. But he was still a step too slow. The white spikes pierced through his armor and burrowed into his flesh. Before Genji could pull the spikes out, another wave of attacks came, this time aimed at Yamada Naruya and his mother. Helpless, Genji had no choice but to use his body as a shield in front of them. Even with all his strength, he inevitably suffered a new wound on his left leg.

"Trigger"

"Cyclone! MaximumDrive!"

However, Gengo also seized the opportunity to change forms and inserted the "cyclone" memory into the trigger magnum to launch a finishing move. A green whirlwind burst out from the muzzle, scattering all the incoming spikes. A high-speed energy bullet was hidden inside and attacked the torso of Unidentified Life Form No. 42.

But the enemy narrowly avoided the attack at the last second, letting the bullet graz his side. Clutching the wound in his waist, Unidentified Life Form No. 42 glared fiercely at Gensou, his voice filled with murderous intent:

"No matter who you are, if you dare to interrupt my game, you're dead. You'll have to make sure you please me!"

After saying that, it plucked off a handful of sharp thorns and threw them at Yamada Naruya's father, who had rushed over. Then, while Gensou was rescuing people, it escaped from there in an instant.

Looking at the spikes, Yuanxiang clenched his fists in anger, but he knew that losing his temper here would be useless. He glanced back at the family of three and saw that the unconscious woman had woken up after being called by her family. He then planned to leave and use the tracker to search for traces of the unidentified life form.

But at that moment, a muffled engine roared, and a knight in red armor and gold horns steered his motorcycle at breakneck speed, crashing straight into Yuanxiang.

112 Kuuga——Yusuke the Fifth Generation

I'm very tired.

These words were not an excuse to deal with Nanoha Takamachi and her gang. After returning from Mondstadt, although his injuries had inexplicably healed, the pressure he had endured during the battle and the exhaustion he felt after recovering from a serious illness made Gengo feel weak in the limbs. If it weren't for the money and food given by the kind shopkeeper, which allowed Gengo to fill his stomach when he had a chance, he really didn't think he would have the strength to protect this family of three.

Of course, Gensou also admitted that he didn't have the extra energy to pursue the incredibly fast unidentified life form, Number 42. To be honest, in his original plan, he intended to keep that elusive creature, as the citizen described, always appearing and disappearing mysteriously, but always managing to...

But after waiting and waiting, and seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, there was still no sign of Number 4. With no other choice, Yuanxiang had to take action and put himself in the open.

Right now, Yuanxiang just wants to escort the family of three to a safe place, then use the tracker to follow the white scarf, try to find the lair of the unidentified life form, then go eat something, close his eyes for a bit, and then go and wipe it out.

But to Yuanxiang's surprise, after finishing everything here, Number 4 rode out on a motorcycle and launched a fierce attack on him.

The key point is that he wasted his time tracking the white scarf. Gengo had already noticed that the white scarf had left the tree canopy, so Gengo did not intend to continue to entangle with Number 4. He thought of using his hand to brace himself against the front of the motorcycle, doing a somersault to avoid it, and at the same time using a back kick to strike Number 4 on the back of the head, so that he would temporarily lose his ability to move and avoid wasting any more time.

However, number 4's determination to defeat him exceeded Gengo's expectations. He preferred to tip his motorcycle over rather than let Gengo use it to escape. Gengo, who lost his footing, stumbled, but he quickly regained his balance, rolled on the spot, and then got up quickly. However, number 4's reaction was also extremely fast.

The moment Yuanxiang stood up, he had already driven his motorcycle and sped towards Yuanxiang again, crashing directly into Yuanxiang's lower back. Yuanxiang couldn't help but groan in pain and fell to the ground. As he fell, the spikes on his body that he hadn't had time to remove sank even deeper into his flesh. Yuanxiang tried to get up quickly, but as soon as he propped himself up, his wrist went limp, causing him to fall back to the ground.

So tired... So sleepy... If I were a cyborg like Takeshi Hongo, I probably wouldn't feel this way. Damn it, I've only been through two battles recently, why am I like this?

Yuanxiang gritted his teeth and twisted the spike, using the pain to stimulate his mind. He then tried to pull it out, stood up, and assumed a fighting stance.

But before Gensou could pull out the spikes, the unidentified life form #4 suddenly spread its arms to the sides, and electricity flowed through its entire body. Golden edges appeared on its red armor, and golden toenails appeared on its right leg. As #4 ran, lightning-like golden energy surged wildly on its right foot. Then it leaped high into the air, did a somersault, and kicked Gensou.

"You bastard, don't underestimate me!!"

Sensing the chilling killing intent, Genji released the spikes, quickly stood up, let out a low roar, and flames surged, condensing into an energy crystal armor on his left fist. Without flinching, he delivered a powerful punch to Number 4's foot. In that instant, a violent shockwave spread outwards like a hurricane, causing the entire villa to shake violently. Fortunately, Yamada Naruya and his family managed to hide behind the rocks in time, thus avoiding the impact.

"Well!!!"

In this intense burst of energy, Unidentified Life Form No. 4 flew out from the center, rolled on the ground, clutched his right leg, and couldn't help but cry out in pain. Genji also couldn't help but take a few steps back. At the same time, a strange symbol appeared on his fist. The energy contained in the symbol was extremely destructive. Genji could feel that if he didn't neutralize it in time, this energy would travel along his arm and completely destroy and dissolve him.

"Joker!!"

Yuanxiang gripped his left wrist and roared out his trump card with all his might. The purple memory immediately responded, shining with a light as bright as a star. A surge of energy poured out from it, instantly neutralizing the deadly symbol energy.

This scene made Unidentified Life Form No. 4 feel a chill, and he quickly stood up and charged towards Gensou with even greater seriousness.

"Wait, there's a misunderstanding between us. I'm not number 42."

Seeing Number 4 moving unhindered, Gengo couldn't help but click his tongue, envying his amazing self-healing ability. He also wanted to end this pointless battle, but Number 4 obviously didn't want to listen to Gengo's 'excuses' and threw a punch without hesitation.

Has this guy lost his mind with anger?!

Yuanxiang caught the murderous punch, and looking at the number 4's red compound eyes, his anger surged forth.

That only helped him calm down.

Yuanxiang sighed helplessly, then aimed at Number 4's abdomen, but it was caught steadily. He immediately exerted force with his feet, twisted his body, and used this force to throw Number 4 to the ground. However, Number 4 immediately swept him in the leg, causing him to lose his balance.

Meanwhile, Gengo seized the opportunity to strike No. 4 in the chest with an elbow. Faced with such a dangerous attack, No. 4 hurriedly rolled to the side. Just as Gengo's elbow sank into the ground, he seized the opportunity and threw a powerful punch at Gengo's face.

However, Gengo had anticipated this attack. With his other hand, he swiftly grabbed Number 4's fist. From then on, whether Number 4 withdrew his fist or charged forward, Gengo could use his momentum to launch an attack.

Just then, Gengo suddenly felt a hot and familiar stinging sensation in his palm. Without a doubt, strange symbols had been imprinted there again. Gengo shouted and activated 'Joker' again to neutralize it, but the energy explosion between his hands blasted Gengo and Number 4 away.

Staring at the 'unidentified life form' covered in spikes, Number 4 clenched his fists even tighter. Photos of the victims from Midorikawa School flashed before his eyes, and recalling the methods of toying with and torturing others' souls, no words could express his rage. Today, he would not let this damned murderer escape his sight!

"bump!!!"

However, just as Number 4 was about to go up again, a gunshot rang out, and the bullet hit Number 4's back armor. He looked back in astonishment and saw Yamada Naruya's parents pointing guns at him.

Although the man didn't know what those two things were, he remembered the image of the black figure risking his life to protect them. Therefore, he told his wife and children to leave first, and then pulled the trigger without hesitation. After all, if he had to choose between red and black, he would prefer that the black figure survive. At the same time, he also hoped that the black figure would remember his help and accept his request to protect Cheng Ye.

"...Are you really not number 42?"

Unidentified Life Form #4 sensed Yamada Naruya's father's thoughts. He slowly lowered his fist and somewhat nervously asked Genji. Genji finally breathed a sigh of relief, sat down on the nearby rock, and said helplessly:

"You're finally willing to listen to me, um..."

The movement aggravated the wound, and Yuanxiang groaned, throwing the thorn that should have been pulled out long ago aside. Seeing this, Number 4 realized even more how big a blunder he had made this time, and for a moment he didn't know how to respond.

Meanwhile, Gensato, while pulling out the thorns, looked at the man holding the weapon and said:

"Thank you so much just now. Now, go see your son. I'm sure he needs your company more. Don't worry, I'll be by your side."

"Thank you... thank you! Thank you!!"

Having received the answer he wanted, the man nodded vigorously, expressing his gratitude with excitement, and then obediently picked up his gun and went down the mountain.

After that person left, Gensou's gaze shifted to Number 4. He sized him up and said softly:

"I am Kamen Rider Joker. May I ask your name?"

"Huh?! Oh, you can call me 'Kuuga'."

As he spoke, the man gave Yuanxiang a thumbs-up and said with a smile, "Yuanxiang nodded and continued to ask:"

"Then may I ask if you are human?"

"Of course, I am human."

Upon hearing the question, Kuuga paused for a moment, then chuckled and patted his chest. But realizing he didn't look human at all, he quickly deactivated his transformation, revealing a handsome and gentle face. He patted his jacket, smiled, and pointed at himself, saying:

"My name is Godai Yusuke, nice to meet you."

"You really have a big heart."

"Eh?!"

Gengo looked at the honest-looking Godai Yusuke, stood up, and said coldly:

"What would you do if I were to attack you now?"

"No way!"

Godai Yusuke smiled brightly, gave Gengo a thumbs-up, and said:

"I believe you, you wouldn't do such a thing!"

Yes, regardless of his numerous wounds or the trust Yamada Seiya's father placed in him, Godai Yusuke believed he wasn't that kind of person.

"That's a cunning answer."

Gengo chuckled, intending to try and extract information from Godai Yusuke. Just then, he heard sirens and hurried footsteps; the police must have arrived. Gengo clicked his tongue and looked at Godai Yusuke, saying:

"The police are here, let's find somewhere else to talk. You don't want to be followed by the police, right?"

"Um... why do you say that?"

Godai Yusuke, however, looked at Gengo with a puzzled expression and blinked before tentatively asking:

"Is there some misunderstanding between you and the police? Um... actually, everyone here is very nice. If there's anything you need to say, you can tell me, and I'll try my best to help you reconcile! Mr. Ichijo! Over here!!"

Watching the ever-smiling young man approach the policeman in the gray trench coat and persuade the other officers to lower their guns, Genshou opened his mouth silently, shook his head with a wry smile, deactivated his transformation, and said with a slightly pale face:

"My name is Gensou, a detective. I've been hired to eliminate this unidentified life form. There's my equipment on the eastern cliff; it can be used to track the tracker I placed on the unidentified life form. However, I estimate that the unidentified life form is now out of the equipment's signal range. See if you can try using it, and then..."

Gensho pointed to his own body and said with a wry smile:

"Could you treat my wound and get me something to eat? I really have no strength left."

"Ah, okay, um, you guys go get the equipment over there, and get an ambulance! Get an ambulance here quickly!" (No further information provided)

Although they didn't know what was going on with this detective named Gengo, the police acted quickly out of trust in Godai Yusuke. Gengo's expression was quite subtle, which reminded him of the Fuuto Police Station, which wanted to blow him up along with the monster.

"Hello, my name is Kaoru Ichijo."

The policeman in the gray trench coat walked over, helping Gengo along with Yusuke Godai, and introduced himself:

"I am a member of the Metropolitan Police Department's task force responsible for unidentified life forms. There are some things I hope you can answer."

"Mr. Nai, you may be disappointed."

Yuanxiang moved his feet calmly and answered softly:

"To be honest, I don't know much about that unidentified life form. I've just been following the Midorikawa School case all the way here. If you guys hadn't shown up, I'd probably be trying to get information out of Mr. Godai right now."
