Is there anyone who really wants to be a partner of justice?

In this case, although Mai felt very surprised, she did not choose to stop her. She just waved her hand awkwardly and let Akiyama Li leave her room.

Just as Akiyama Li was leaving the room and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, a tall figure blocked her way.

"Um!?"

Akiyama Li was stunned for a moment. She looked up and found that the man in front of her looked so similar to Mai, and her expression suddenly became panic.

She swallowed, and suddenly lost the decisiveness she had when facing Zhenyi, and muttered: "Um... I, I have something urgent to do now..."

Shinichi raised his eyebrows, smiled kindly, and asked, "Well, do you mind telling me? I have a car. If there is anything urgent, I can take you there~"

Facing Shinichi's "kindness", Akiyama Li's body suddenly froze. You looked like a thief who was caught with a stolen bag. Your face was awkward and unnatural. You could only say stubbornly: "I... well, you don't need to send me... I can do it myself..."

"Well~ I don't think so. After all, I picked you up from the roadside. When I found you, you looked very worried. Generally speaking, the more stubborn a person is, the more likely they are to lose control."

"..."

Facing Shinichi's rebuttal, Akiyama Li frowned. The man in front of her was indeed much harder to fool than Mai... and...

She raised her eyes to look at Shinichi's playful eyes. In her eyes, that face was covered with a dark visor. That dark knight full of ominous, evil thoughts, and domineering...decade!

Akiyama Li looked back at Mai who was standing behind her and looking at her with concern, and she couldn't help but grit her teeth.

I didn't expect that Mai would live with this guy... Ah, that's not surprising. After all, it's not surprising that the real body lives with the dark side...

"Hah... Please wait a moment. I have a call."

After thinking for a moment, Akiyama Li used her convincing acting skills, covered the phone that was not making any sound, rushed into the toilet next to her, and answered the "call".

"..." Mai came closer curiously and couldn't help but ask a soul-searching question: "Um..., did her phone ring?"

"Who knows? Maybe she turned on mute?" Shinichi smiled softly, but did not point out Akiyama Li's poor acting skills. In his opinion, this girl obviously had a lot of secrets, and if he pointed them out directly, a lot of interesting things would be lost.

"Shizune? I see..."

Mai didn't think much about it. Since Kadoya Shikun said so, then I will believe it. Would your brother Shi lie to you?

After some obviously deliberate phone calls were heard in the bathroom, Akiyama Li opened the bathroom door again and said calmly, "Sorry, I made you laugh. I don't have anything urgent to do now."

"If there's nothing urgent, then sit down and take a break. Have a cup of tea, eat some snacks, and by the way, tell me why you fainted on the side of the road, and...what's your name?"

When he said the last sentence, Shinichi deliberately emphasized the word "name". After struggling for a moment, Akiyama Li looked at Shinichi's obviously amused expression and said a name she made up on the spot: "My name is... Xiao Meilian..."

Chapter 113: Qiu Shanli, you don’t want to...

"Xiao Meilian... Heh, this name shouldn't be your real name, right?"

Shinichi came over to Akiyama Li with a cup of hot cocoa and handed it to her.

Qiu Shanli looked at the steaming cocoa in her hand. The steaming appearance was just like the calories contained in this cup of cocoa. Giving a girl this kind of high-sugar and high-calorie drink... is this raising pigs? Although... hot cocoa is indeed delicious.

Akiyama Li took the cocoa and glanced at the bathroom door where the light was on and the sound of the shower could be heard. Mai was taking a bath in it at the moment. Without the biggest obstacle, Shinichi and Akiyama Li could finally have a frank and open chat.

After taking a sip of hot cocoa, Akiyama Li looked up at Shinichi's teasing smile and asked, "Mr. Kadoya, your name isn't real, is it?"

"Well, it's not true... Then, let's make a trade. You tell me your name and I tell you mine. How about that?"

Facing Shinichi's proposal, Akiyama Li pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay..."

"OK~ Then I'll go first. My name is indeed not Kadoya Shi, my real name is..."

Akiyama Li's ears twitched involuntarily, and her eyes revealed an incomparable thirst for knowledge...

"Inoue Masahiro."

"..."

Hearing this name, Akiyama Li's expression suddenly became a little weird. For some reason, although this name sounded fine, she always felt that this name was not real. It felt like this guy was still using a fake name to tease her...

"you sure?"

"Of course I'm sure! You don't think I'm still lying to you, do you? Look at my sincere eyes! Besides, what good will it do if I keep lying to you like this?"

Shinichi asked Akiyama Li in a serious tone, and the way he explained the pros and cons was as if it was really as he said, as if he was telling the indisputable truth.

However, Akiyama Li was obviously not so easily fooled. She raised her dead fish-like eyes, took a sip of hot cocoa, and nodded at Zhen, as if to say, please continue with your performance.

Seeing that his nonsense was defeated, Shinichi didn't get angry and smiled and spread his hands, saying: "OK, it seems that there is only one girl like Mai who is easy to fool."

Akiyama Li's mouth twitched, and she responded viciously: "If you treat me perfunctorily with the same attitude as you treated Mai, then I can also try to treat you with the same attitude as I treat Odin!"

"Deal with Odin? Oh? It seems that you have faced Odin directly? Tsk~ Well, then I should know who you are~" Shin instantly grasped the key words from Akiyama Li's mouth, his eyes narrowed and he smiled.

Akiyama Li was stunned for a moment, then gritted her teeth in annoyance. She spoke too quickly and actually let out such crucial information...

"He's hostile to Odin, and he's also related to the Knights, Night Knight, Akiyama Li, right?"

Akiyama Li looked a little embarrassed. Seeing that she could no longer hide it, she could only nod: "...Yes...But don't be too proud. You know my identity, and I know your identity too! The dark side of Mai, Kamen Rider Decade!"

Hearing Akiyama Li calling out this name in front of him with such confidence, Shinichi's smile suddenly couldn't be suppressed for a moment, but he still tried hard to cover his mouth with his hands, trying his best to control his facial expression.

"Ah...yes, yes, puff...wow...mmm!"

"..."

Seeing Shinichi obviously trying to hold back his laughter, Akiyama Li quickly realized, this guy... Could it be that even the identity of Decade is a fabricated piece of information!? Is there any truth in this guy's mouth!?

"You guy!"

Akiyama Li was immediately furious. She smashed the cup and grabbed Shinichi by the collar, threatening him: "You bastard! What on earth are you? What is your true identity?!"

"Don't be angry, let's talk it over. I have no ill will towards you, not to mention that I was the one who moved you here. Besides, what is my identity? How will it affect you? This is the first time we meet today, and you are showing hostility like this... I like to treat people the way they treat me. Aren't you afraid that I will kill you if I get upset?"

As he spoke, Shinichi's tone became more and more brutal, and he even grabbed Akiyama Li's neck with his backhand, threatening with a grim expression.

Shinichi's counterattack instantly suppressed Akiyama Li. Although she might be the most skilled Kamen Rider after transforming into Night Rider, she was just a girl in her ordinary human form after all. Facing Shinichi, a strong man who practiced ghost fighting, she was just a trash with a combat power of five.

"Gu..."

Akiyama Li grabbed Shinichi's wrist, which was like an iron handcuff, and tried to struggle, but she was unable to budge it at all. The improvement of Shinichi by the Ghost Warrior Breathing Technique was visible to the naked eye. Even though he had not really learned Ghost Warrior so far, the breathing technique had made Shinichi's physique soar to an astonishing level in the past few days.

Seeing that Akiyama Li was almost suffocating because of his iron fist, Shinichi let go and put her on the sofa, then smiled kindly and said: "So, be calm, I like fairness, we talk about reason and physics together, it's not fair to a girl like this~"

"Cough cough..." After coughing a few times, Akiyama Li sat down obediently with a resentful look in her eyes.

Shinichi also sat down, and asked with a hint of joking in his eyes: "After all, you still haven't told me why you are so excited about my identity? What does my identity mean to you?

Or, in other words, my identity has nothing to do with you, but it has a lot to do with someone very important to you, such as... the one taking a shower in the bathroom, my other side?"

Akiyama Li was speechless for a moment, and looked at Shinichi with a wary look in her eyes. Shinichi felt the hostility this woman showed towards him when he mentioned Mai.

Seeing this, Shinichi also speculated in his mind: "I see, it seems that you really care about my other side. But... this makes me very curious. As far as I know, you killed the previous Dragon Rider, Night Rider. Why did you kill the previous Dragon Rider, but you care so much about him, Mai?"

Qiu Shanli snorted coldly and replied: "Humph, I am just repaying a favor."

"Repay a favor?"

Shinichi raised his eyebrows, and Akiyama Li sneered and asked, "Why? Since you are the dark side of Mai, you should be very clear about what Mai did, right? Ah~ That's right, as a dark side, you are only full of anger and lies, how could you care about what Mai did?

"I was one of the victims of the religious case who was saved by Zhenyi two months ago. She helped me escape from the suffering of the Samsara Society, so I naturally want to repay her. Is there anything wrong with me caring about her safety? Is there anything wrong with me caring about you, a dangerous guy with unknown origins?"

"..."

Shinichi looked at the self-righteous Akiyama Li, curled his lips and touched his chin, and the memories in his mind quickly surged. Suddenly, a trace of some not-so-obvious details that he had buried in his mind suddenly connected together under Akiyama Li's explanation.

His eyes lit up, he snorted and laughed, directly exposing Akiyama Li's words, and retorted: "Ah~ I was wondering why the name Akiyama Li sounds so familiar to me, aren't you the Akiyama Li that Mai used as a starting point for the investigation, but still failed to find the person in the entire religious case?

You were not there when Mai was solving the religious case! You had never met Mai before that, and everything you said just now was a lie."

Akiyama Li was not panicked and explained directly: "Who stipulated that the two of us must meet? Yes, I was indeed not seen by Mai, but I was at the rally at that time. Although Mai did not see me, I saw her. I also learned from the subsequent reports that it was she who solved the entire religious case. So, I repay her, what's the problem?"

Akiyama Li's explanation was reasonable. Shinichi couldn't find any flaws at the moment and could only assume that the woman was telling the truth. However, this was still not enough to explain all his doubts.

He asked again: "So, your way of repaying is to kill the former Dragon Knight who did a favor to Mai? Are you sure this is repaying a favor, and not repaying evil with kindness?"

"..." When this was mentioned, Akiyama Li's expression suddenly became less firm than at the beginning. There was a trace of struggle and escape in her eyes. She said angrily: "That thing...that thing had a reason! I...I just made a mistake..."

"Missed?"

“…Missed.”

Akiyama Li showed a look of regret, as if she was still brooding over the fact that she had killed the previous Dragon Rider. Her expression didn't look fake, so Shinichi curled his lips and decided not to pursue the matter any further.

"Well, I'll just believe you for now. I'm not like my other side, who can't accept blood on his hands. I'm much more open-minded. I don't really care that you killed the former dragon rider. After all, it's hard to stay out of a knight war.

However, although we both have blood on our hands, we all have a common goal, don't we? I am the dark side of Mayi, and I can only exist by relying on her if she can exist soundly. You also have to repay her, and we both need to protect Mayi's safety.

Then, let's make another deal, just for Mai. After all, if she knew that one of us is her dark side and the other is the murderer of the previous Dragon Knight, she would probably go crazy~

I will help you hide your identity, and you will help me keep it secret. How about that?"

Looking at the devilish smile of the man in front of her, who looked like he was selling a contract, Akiyama Li hesitated for a moment. Should she make this deal?

"Akiyama Li, you don't want Mai, whom you care about, to turn against you after learning your true identity, right~"

"Okay! I promise you!"

Akiyama Li finally chose to complete this devil's deal, even though she was full of uneasiness in her heart, but it was all for Mai, wasn't it? The change that came with great difficulty had to be grasped when it was time to do so.

What's more...she still has opportunities...many opportunities...

very many!

Chapter 114 I'm not done with you!

"Phew~ It feels so good to take a bath~"

Mai, wearing a yukata, walked out of the steaming bathroom all wet. Her face was flushed by the heat, and her forehead was covered with beads of water like fragrant sweat. Her skin was also rosy and shiny because of the steam, making her look cute and attractive.

Wiping her still wet hair, Mai walked into the living room and found that Shinichi and Akiyama Li were leisurely drinking hot cocoa.

She was quite surprised that this girl, who was a little cold and aloof at first, now showed such a kind expression, so she walked up to him curiously and asked, "Hey, Kadoya Shikun, you seem to be having a good chat with Miss Lian."

"Hmm~" Zhen nodded and said to Zhenyi: "I just realized that Miss Lian likes to drink cocoa as much as I do. So~ So, if you want to capture a woman's heart, you must first capture her stomach. Let women open their bellies, and then they will open their hearts~"

"..."

Akiyama Li glanced at Shinichi. What kind of bullshit is this? He's trying to control a woman's stomach. When did I say I like hot cocoa? Although... hot cocoa is really delicious.

"Eh? So Miss Lian likes hot cocoa? I like it too! Although... uh, drinking too much will make you fat..." Mai said, and touched her belly with some regret, but she didn't know what she was doing and was shocked.

"Eh!?"

It's soft, fluffy, and a little bouncy...Oh my god! I actually felt some extra fat!

"Oh no, oh no, Kadokuni-kun, I feel like... I've gained some weight!"

Shinichi glanced at Mayu's smooth belly, which showed almost no changes, touched his chin, observed the curves, and asked, "Is there?"

"Look! Kadokuni Shikun, my pants are so tight that they're showing my flesh..."

"Wow~ That's it~ Can this be called extra fat? This is proof of health! I know whether a girl has extra fat or not! As long as I see a curve without enough fat to support it, I won't be moved!

As for your waist curve, in my opinion, it is like a tall woman over 1.7 meters tall is like a washboard, which is unattractive! So, don't worry! You don't have any extra fat, believe me, my eyes are the ruler! "

"..." x2

Shinichi's answer made the two girls fall silent at the same time. Mai was surprised at such a unique metaphor, while Akiyama Li was amazed at the dark side of this little angel. Her personality was indeed abstract enough.

"Ah...hahaha~ I remember now, Kadoya seems to like those with plump body shapes. Since Kadoya said so, there should be no such thing~"

Although Mai felt a little embarrassed, she nodded and agreed with Shinichi's comment. Akiyama Li on the side commented normally, "Although Mr. Kadoya's comment is a little...special, it is indeed correct. Mai, you are not fat. Rather, you have been thin for too long. You should add more fat to maintain a healthy body shape."

"Oh, I see! Thank you, Miss Lian!"

"Um... no, you're welcome..."

Seeing how Akiyama Li became inexplicably weak when facing Mai, Shinichi felt that the relationship between these two people might not be a simple favor, but something more fishy.

Hum~oh Moses Roy…

……

"Jingle Bell……"

"Hello? Who is this?" Shinichi picked up the phone and asked.

"It's me, your elder sister, brother Shi." An inexplicably angry voice came from the other end of the line. It was Kitaoka who had not been seen for a day.

"..." Shinichi frowned for a moment. Why is it this woman? After getting the Daya card box, Shinichi actually didn't want to have anything to do with Kitaoka, because he no longer had the purpose of contacting him.

But... if Kitaoka came over to get close to him himself, that would be a different matter.

"Ah, Miss Kitaoka, what do you want to talk to me about?"
