There is no tragedy in Kamen Rider

However, Toru Takahashi did not kill the beetle immediately, so the beetle still had enough time to take action.

"lead the way."

After putting the beetle down, Toru Takahashi turned his back and spoke coldly, at the same time regretting in his heart why he didn't have an ability similar to X-ray vision, otherwise he wouldn't have to wait for this timid guy to react.

Beetle looked at the oppressive back, took a few deep breaths, stood up, and walked in front of Takahashi Toru with a slightly hunched body, leading the way.

Outside the window, a colorful butterfly saw this scene and immediately flapped its wings and flew away.

Beetle walked in front of Takahashi Toru and entered a corridor amid the astonished gazes of the employees of the Intelligent Brain Company. After reaching the camera of the corridor, Beetle put his hand on it, and then a hidden elevator appeared in front of the two of them.

boom!

When Toru Takahashi pulled the beetle into the elevator, he was directly rewarded with a supernatural rage, turning the beetle into countless ashes.

"Thanks, unknown guy. I'll remember your help."

If the dead beetle knew what Takahashi Toru said, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood. His servile behavior was just to survive, but Takahashi Toru didn't seem to realize it, or maybe he behaved like this because he realized it.

Ding!

The elevator went down all the way, and after descending several hundred meters, it finally opened in the eyes of Takahashi Toru who was a little annoyed.

Takahashi Toru looked at the dim staircase in front of him, and considered that his stag beetle form might scare the two workers who might still be alive, so he immediately transformed into Kuuga's red all-mighty form.

Number 4 in the eyes of most people!

Da da da!

The sound of Takahashi Toru's footsteps on the stairs could be heard, but all he could hear was a hollow sound. He walked for about several dozen meters before he began to hear obvious breathing sounds.

"It looks like it's not far away."

Hearing three different breathing sounds, Takahashi Toru felt it carefully and then started running. In a blink of an eye, he saw two dying workers.

boom!

With one punch, he knocked away the glass in front of him, and as the two workers looked at him as his savior, Takahashi Toru put the two down.

"Number…four."

Takahashi Toru looked at the two workers' weak mouth shapes and immediately read the words of trust.

"Leave it to me from now on. You two should take a good rest first."

When Takahashi Toru's voice was heard, the two workers fell asleep immediately.

Bang!

Takahashi Toru raised his hand and directly grabbed a hand that looked like a goat's.

"You're number four? No! You're not!"

"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is whether you have figured out how to tell me all this."

boom!

As soon as he finished speaking, Takahashi Toru used one hand to knock Hanagata away, breaking the instruments in the laboratory and collapsing the wall before stopping.

"Cough cough..."

Hanagata looked at the unfamiliar Takahashi Toru in front of him, and controlled his body that had been directly transformed into a human form to walk to the fallen belt. After picking it up, he said with regret: "Sure enough, it failed again?"

Toru Takahashi looked at the belt in Hanagata's hand, and immediately switched forms and launched a supernatural rage at everything in the laboratory.

In an instant, the only people left in the laboratory were Takahashi Toru, two workers who had fallen asleep, and Hanagata, whose eyes were filled with death.

"Your body won't last much longer, so tell us everything. Whether it's the King of Ophino, the origin of the lucky four-leaf clover, everything that happened at the Meteor Villa party, or the laboratory on the beach."

When Hanagata heard Takahashi Toru talking about Meteor Villa, he immediately sighed, and then began to talk about the questions about King of Orphino, Meteor Villa, Lucky Clover, and the laboratory one by one.

"The King of Orphino has the ability to grant Orphino eternal life, but will permanently lose the ability to become a human being when he is born. The King of Orphino was born among children who experienced a death event. Meteor Villa was built to find the existence of the king. I only found out about what happened at their party that night later. That action was ordered by the board of directors. By the time I found out, it was too late. I could only use the technology of the Intelligent Brain Company to cure him, but..."

"The origin of the Lucky Four-Leaf Clover existed when the Intelligent Brain Company was first established. They are related to the King of Orphino. A long time ago, the King of Orphino fought a battle with the four original Orphinos. After the battle, the King of Orphino fell into a slumber, and so did the four Orphinos. However, the four Orphinos' subordinates established the Intelligent Brain Company because their apostles had the ability to control life and death after regeneration. Their main purpose was to find the King of Orphino and kill him."

"It's just that as time went by, that group of people changed their minds in private. In order to fight against the four powerful Orphinos and to protect the birth of the king, they made the belt. As for the laboratory you mentioned, it was built by a director of the board of directors in order to save the fate of Orphinos. Behind him were the four Orphinos. But it was destroyed a year ago. If my guess is correct, I'm afraid you are the result of the experiment in that laboratory."

Takahashi Toru shook his head in the face of Hanagata's speculation.

"Where does the power of the belt come from?"

"The source of the belt's power is something completely opposite to the Ophir Factor. It can only be used after being modified by our experimenters."

Takahashi Toru pondered for a moment, then asked uncertainly: "Since the source of the belt's power is completely opposite to the Ophi factor, why not develop something that can suppress the Ophi factor."

"That group of guys had too strong a desire for immortality, even I was the same before."

Takahashi Toru was silent. After thinking for a while, he said to Hanagata, "I need you to write down the detailed data and composition of the belt's power source and give it to me."

Hanagata was silent for a while and then nodded in agreement. He walked in front of Takahashi Toru, lifted a worker and walked towards the elevator.

Chapter 23 Betting

Kimura family.

Ding-ling~Ding-ling~

Hearing the ringing of the phone coming from the living room, Saya Kiba walked over after putting the clothes in her hands on the hanger, her little face slightly red.

"Moshimoshi, this is Kiba Saya, what can I do for you?"

The familiar but somewhat hoarse voice of Kiba Saya was then heard from the other end of the phone.

"Kimura, this is Sawada. Can we meet at Green Park at 3 pm? I want to ask you a question about the belt."

Saya Kiba was stunned for a moment when she heard Sawada's somewhat unfamiliar words, but she agreed without thinking too much.

"I understand. I'll be there at three in the afternoon. Beep~"

In the public telephone room, after getting the response from Kiba Saya that she would keep the appointment, Sawada agreed and hung up the phone. He lowered his head to think for a while, then took out origami and started folding paper cranes again.

……

Zhinao Company, top floor.

All the employees were stunned when they saw the long-missing former president Hanagata, but soon, led by an executive, they all expressed their congratulations on Hanagata's return.

"President, welcome back!"

"Mr. President, welcome back. We have been waiting for you for a long time."

"President, please let me do it for you."

The executive nearby wanted to take over the worker from Hanagata, but Takahashi Toru, who was walking behind, spoke up when he saw this.

"Let this guy hold it. This is what he deserves. Also, call me an ambulance and make a compensation plan for these two workers."

When the senior executive heard Takahashi Toru's tactless voice, he immediately wanted to teach him a lesson, but when he saw Takahashi Toru's cold face, his expression immediately became exactly like that of a lackey in a villain novel.

"Haha. I'll go right away, Mr. Takahashi. Please wait for a moment."

Toru Takahashi did not respond to the senior executive's courtesy. He just followed Hanagata's steps into the president's office with a serious face.

The clerk nearby saw his boss being ignored by Takahashi Toru and wanted to protect him immediately, but was stopped by his colleague next to him.

"You want to kill yourself? That's Mr. Takahashi! A second-born Ophio can turn you into sand with just one punch."

The clerk looked at his colleague's serious expression and nodded belatedly, but at the same time he was also regretting that he was too eager for quick success.

Takahashi Toru had no idea what was happening outside the president's office. At this moment, he took the towel handed to him by the smartlady, covered the two workers with it, and then sat quietly on the sofa waiting.

Hanagata looked at the familiar president's desk and recalled some memories. Then he turned on the computer and connected to the internal website of Zhinao Company. He used his authority to copy everything that Toru Takahashi needed about the source of the belt power to the USB flash drive. At the same time, he also downloaded a criminal record about Zhinao Company.

"This is the information you want. All the information about the opposite substance of the Orpheus Factor is in it. There is also a part of the information about what Zhinao Company has done over the years. I am not allowed to see more with my authority."

After Takahashi Toru took the USB flash drive from Hanagata, he smiled with satisfaction. Then he looked out the window, sighed deeply, and said, "You have the blood of too many people on your hands."

Hanagata just shook his head after listening to Takahashi Toru's regretful words and then expressed his inner thoughts.

"My own fate has long been determined, as has the fate of the so-called King of Ophieno and the Four Ophis. We are all too extreme, and the path of extremism leads only to death."

After that, Hanagata was silent for a while before raising his hand, which had completely turned into sand, and said to Takahashi Toru with some pity: "If possible, I hope that for Saya's sake you can kill as few children as possible from Meteor Villa."

After Hanagata finished speaking, his body could no longer hold on and completely turned into sand, flowing in the president's office.

Seeing this scene, the smartlady just pretended to be very sad as usual, and waited for Takahashi Toru's instructions and arrangements.

After all, only Takahashi Toru in the Intelligent Brain Company has the strength to completely suppress the other Orpheinos!

"I would never kill anyone who is innocent. As long as they haven't killed anyone, I won't do it."

Takahashi Toru turned around and looked at the gravel on the ground and spoke seriously, then turned his gaze to the smartlady.

"Smartlady, call the two police officers, Hojo Toru and Hikawa Cheng, and tell them to wear the G3X and G3 systems and come to the Zhinao Company to receive all the criminals who have violated the law. Also, tell the people on the list that President Hanagata gave me to gather in the conference room. Just say I'm the convener. Those who don't attend the meeting will bear the consequences at their own risk."

Smartlady's eyes fixed on Takahashi Toru who had completely turned into a white devil (stag beetle). She stopped pretending to cry and agreed seriously, and began to proceed in an orderly manner according to Takahashi Toru's instructions.

……

Inside the Metropolitan Police Department.

Hikawa Makoto and Hojo Toru were very surprised after listening to the conversation at the Intelligent Brain Company, but considering that Takahashi Toru had investigated this for a long time, they did not think too much about it. After reporting the matter, they quickly received a reply from above.

G3x and G3 systems are allowed to be deployed, and special operations teams can be mobilized as appropriate.

On the other side, the Western Laundry.

Mari Sonoda looked happy as she hung up the phone call from Sawada, who had been bullying her all day at Meteor Villa, and prepared to pick up her small shoulder bag to go out.

Seeing the look on Sonoda Mari's face, Ken Takumi and Soka Masato both looked unhappy.

Especially when I saw Mari Sonoda going alone to meet a boy, and he could be said to be her childhood sweetheart, this kind of love plot is definitely a typical love story in Japanese novels.

How could Ken Takumi and Kusaka Masato not be jealous?

"Truth, can you go alone? What if you meet Ophino?"

Qian Qiao really wanted to persuade Sonoda Mari to reject Sawada's invitation, but when he thought that he and she were just ordinary friends now, he could only use the attack of Orpheus as an excuse.

Sokanobu on the side could only worry. He wanted to speak out to stop it but was afraid of leaving a bad impression in Sonoda Mari's mind.

After thinking about it in his mind, Keitaro Kikuchi agreed with Qian Qiao's statement.

"Zhen Li, it's not safe for a girl like you to go out and meet a boy, even if that guy is your most familiar playmate from childhood. But you haven't been in touch for a long time, and the frequency of Ophiino's attacks has increased recently. It's better to let Aqiao and the others go with you."

Mari Sonoda felt embarrassed when she saw Keitaro Kikuchi's rare serious face, but after thinking about it for a while, she agreed.

"Okay then. But Aqiao and Caojia, you two are not allowed to say anything excessive."

Ken Takumi and Soka Masato were somewhat dissatisfied with what Sonoda Mari said, but they had no choice but to agree.

After all, it is better to go openly than to follow secretly and take the risk of being scolded.

Mari Sonoda, Takumi Inui, and Masato Soka drove away on a motorcycle. Mari Sonoda sat on the back seat of Takumi Inui, holding her arms tightly around his waist just in case.

This scene made the actor grit his teeth but he could do nothing about it.

Green Park, 2:51 p.m.

Mari Sonoda arrived at the designated bench according to the location Sawada told her on the phone.

Looking at the paper crane on the bench, Sonoda Mari picked it up and carefully placed it in her hand. After observing it carefully, she whispered, "Sawada, why did you call me over here?"

Carefully feeling the warmth from the paper cranes in her hands, Mari Sonoda seemed to empathize with the little boy who grabbed her hair and chased her that afternoon of that year.

Click!

Qian Qiao looked at Sonoda Mari who was not far in front of him, as if he felt that something beside him was broken. However, when he turned his head to look, there was nothing else except Masato Kusaka, whose acting was always on point.

"Strange?"

Qian Qiao touched his hair awkwardly, then shifted his gaze and looked around vigilantly.

2:58 pm.

Ding-ling~Ding-ling~

Mari Sonoda heard the ringing of the phone in her pocket, took it out, saw that the caller was Rina Abe, and after a moment of confusion, she pressed the answer button.

As soon as the call was connected, Abe Rina's anxious voice came, "Mari! That guy Sawada has become Ophio, and he also made an appointment with Saya at Green Leaf Park today. You guys should quickly find where she is."

The incident happened suddenly, and Rina Abe didn't have time to tell her companions in Meteor Villa that they saw Sawada transform into Orphino and attack humans. Sonoda Mari also didn't have time to ask more questions. She just froze for a moment and then ran towards Inui Takumi and Soka Masato.
