I, the Stand-in, Kamen Rider

The chest seemed to be empty, empty.

"..." Gu Chengxiu raised his hand and looked at it.

There is nothing to hold hands.

nothing protects...

"...Gu Chengxiu...you trash." Gu Chengxiu laughed at himself in a low voice.

He clearly promised to protect her.

In the end, isn't this a complete failure...isn't this a complete failure to keep a good agreement...

A strong sense of exhaustion surged up, Gu Chengxiu lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

……

Gu Chengxiu had a dream.

When he woke up, Liuli was still standing in front of him, playing harmless jokes with him.

As always, eating breakfast, as always, opening the store and waiting for customers...

……

wake up.

Dreams are dreams after all...

In the corners of Gu Chengxiu's eyes, tears still remained.

A man doesn't flick his tears lightly, but he doesn't reach the sad point...

It was dawn, and Gu Chengxiu walked out of the room in a daze.

"..." I don't want to do anything, I don't want to eat anything.

Kojou sat quietly in this dark room.

After a long time, he reached into his pocket, but the touch of his fingertips made him stunned.

He grabbed the thing and took it out.

That's a candy.

"The candy brother Axiu gave me that day was delicious, but brother Axiu never ate it, so I ran out to buy it myself... Brother Axiu won't blame me, right? '

In a daze, Gu Chengxiu saw that young Liuli smiling at him again.

He tightly clenched the candy in his hand, then let go of it after a while, and put the candy aside.

……

For Gu Chengxiu, the concept of time has become dispensable.

It's fine to just sleep like this... Maybe I can go to Liuli.

When she was with Liuli, seven years seemed to be just a moment.

But now, every minute of the ancient city repair feels like a year.

Gu Chengxiu turned on the Stag Phone, and then slowly flipped through the photo album.

However, his pupils suddenly shrank.

there is none left?

why? !

Gu Chengxiu flipped through the photos one by one, he clearly remembered that there were Liuli in some photos, but there was nothing on them!

Yes, only Gu Chengxiu was alone, or the place where Liuli was originally standing was empty.

Gu Chengxiu frantically flipped through his phone until a call came in.

Not many people know his phone number, this call is from Zhantu.

There was hope in Gu Chengxiu's eyes, and he immediately connected the phone.

"Moxi, Moxi~Axiu, where are you now~" Zhantu's voice came from the other end.

At this time, Gu Chengxiu regained his sanity.

"...I just came back and didn't have time to open the shop." Gu Chengxiu said in a hoarse voice.

On the other end of the phone, Zhantu and Longwo looked at each other. The voice sounded like Axiu, but something was wrong...

"Ash?"

"……it's me."

"What happened to your voice?"

"...no...nothing."

"It scared me to death. Last time you said you were going on a trip, I thought your voice was like that. What happened?" Zhan Tu's voice was like a bucket of water, pouring the hope in Gu Chengxiu's eyes. on the flames.

"... Zhantu, do you remember Liuli?" Gu Chengxiu asked after being silent for a long time.
