The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

Transforms into a smoke rifle.

He stretched out his palm, and the next second, a fully filled bottle with a rocket relief engraved on it appeared in his hand, and then inserted into the slot of the smoke rifle.

"Full Bottle!"

He thanked everyone in the Yamashita group again in his heart. Without their active cooperation, he would not have been able to get new full bottles.

Then he pointed the gun at the sky.

"Steam Attack!"

As Lin Qiao pressed the trigger, in front of Hina Fueguchi's confused but shocked gaze, a missile shot out from the muzzle and flew towards the investigators not far away.

Chapter 28 Henshin!

"Look! What is that?"

"Looks like...fireworks?"

"It's going to fall, be careful--!"

Trailing a long trail of smoke, a small missile no bigger than an arm drew several elusive spiral trajectories in the air and fell straight to the ground.

boom--!

The loud explosion made my ears hurt.

The thick smoke instantly covered Kirishima Touka and Fueguchi Ryoko, and even the two branch police investigators who were relatively close were also affected.

The power generated by the missile explosion is not great. It feels like a firecracker with a loud noise. Compared with the killing effect, it is more like a deception.

Despite this, Mado Goo and Amon Kotaro, whose vision was obscured by the thick smoke, still stopped.

"Mr. Nakajima, Mr. Kusaba!"

"Wait a minute, Yamen-!"

A little worried about the safety of the two, Kotaro Amon wanted to go forward to check, but was stopped by Wusuo Mado who was standing nearby.

The happy expression on his face quietly disappeared, and he looked at the thick smoke in front of him with a serious expression.

His intuition was constantly warning him!

Some tentacle-like existence was vaguely seen lurking in the smoke, along with the painful whimpers of the other two branch investigators.

If he had not considered that there were his own people inside and might be injured by mistake, he would have swung the bone whip Quinque in his hand without hesitation.

"Be careful, Amen, there's something in there..."

"Spider!"

A deep male voice came from the smoke.

"Rider System!"

The two investigators' vigilance instantly reached its highest level, but they still did not act rashly.

"Evolution!"

In the smoke, blue and red lights began to flash alternately.

At the same time, a pleasant and joyful music sounded in the alley.

A large number of transparent tubes appeared out of thin air, passing through the smoke blockade. They were filled with red and blue unknown gelatinous substances, forming a half-body that looked like armor.

This also made Mado Wuxu's ominous premonition even stronger.

Stop him! You must stop him!

Otherwise, something terrible will happen next!

There was no hesitation anymore, even if he was fired because of accidental injury to his subordinates, it didn't matter.

The giant bone whip in his hand chopped towards the light spot that was still glowing in the smoke.

but....

Ding!

The moment it made contact, the white python-like bone whip was bounced aside and almost slipped out of the hand.

"Mr. Mado!?"

"Don't worry, Amen. I'm fine."

After moving his numb hands, Mado Wuxu answered.

Despite this, the sound in the smoke did not stop, but instead continued to the final step.

"Are you ready?"

A deep voice sounded, and as the smoke slowly dissipated, a figure with his hands crossed over his chest could be vaguely seen.

"Henshin!"

Lin Qiao looked straight ahead, his hands slowly pointing forward, and as he moved, the air around him seemed to become restless.

Three huge gears and armor quickly slapped towards him, and after circling in front of him for a few weeks like a restraint, they completely merged with him.

Dazzling arcs of energy burst out from the armor and black mist emerged from all parts of the body at the moment the transformation was completed.

"Spider! Spider! Killbus Spider!"

“FUHAHAHAHAHA——!”

The voice was still strange and low, but it was an undisguised crazy laugh.

When the smoke gradually faded away, what appeared in front of everyone was Lin Qiao after her transformation. Her scarlet figure was undoubtedly the most eye-catching presence in the whole venue.

At his feet, there were two unconscious branch investigators lying.

Amazon?

After seeing the scarlet figure, the two investigators suddenly connected it with the man-eating monster recently discovered by CCG.

Not long ago, scenes from CCG’s internal meeting flashed through my mind.

"Mr. Mado, that guy should be the one that Marute Tokutsu mentioned a while ago, right?"

"Yes, it seems that we really caught a big fish this time, Amen..."

Mado Wuxu's expression changed suddenly. There were too many and too big accidents today.

No. A023

A being with power far beyond that of an average Amazon.

From the data gathered from just two appearances, it can be seen that he is completely different from the Amazon that CCG has encountered in the past.

In just a few minutes, he easily killed two Amazons and completely ignored the kagune attacks of the S-rank ghouls... If I had to make an analogy, it was roughly equivalent to the gap between a kagune ghoul and a non-kagune ghoul.

Despite having no clear record or tendency to prey on humans, it is still labeled as extremely dangerous.

....But then again, what is that belt-like thing?

Other Amazons don’t seem to have this structure, and there are two bottles of unclear meaning inserted on it, but it feels a bit strange to say that it is a decoration.

And the sound from before... Spider? Spider?

This is obvious at a glance. You can tell without even looking that this guy is a spider.

But what does that Rider System mean?

No, there are too many things I don’t understand, but there is no doubt that this red guy must be difficult to deal with.

Ignoring the two investigators who were constantly thinking, Lin Qiao waved towards the dying Kirishima Touka on the ground:

"Hey, isn't this Dong Xiang? How come you're like this after just one day of not seeing each other?"

"...Who are you...?"

"That's not a good question to ask. Um... he's just a Kamen Rider passing by."

“…I’ve never heard of it…”

Although I was very grateful to the other party for saving my life, that infuriating tone made me want to punch him twice, but at the same time I felt inexplicably familiar with him... Was he someone I knew?

"elder sister!"

"Wait, Hinami...? Why are you going back.... Did Hinami bring this guy here?"

Kirishima Touka supported herself on the ground with one hand, then took a breath, and while trying to get up, she saw the brown-haired girl following closely behind Lin Qiao, and suddenly became a little uneasy.

He looked at Lin Qiao in surprise and doubt, as if questioning why he brought Fuekou Hinami back to such a dangerous place.

"Well...after all, I need someone to help me find the way." Lin Qiao shrugged helplessly.

He walked to Kirishima Touka leisurely, then squatted down and reached out his hand towards the rabbit mask on her face.

Not wanting her identity to be discovered, Kirishima Touka subconsciously turned her head away.

But in this state, she couldn't offer any other resistance, and it might even hurt her wounds, so after just a symbolic struggle, the mask was taken off.

"....What do you want to do?"

"I'm just curious, do you lift your hair up when you wear a mask...Since it's a hairstyle like this, there's no need to use both eyes when choosing a mask, right?"

Lifting aside the bangs that covered half of the other person's face, Lin Qiao flipped through the mask in his hand.

He put it on his face and compared it, then tilted his head to the side, causing the cute bunny ears on the mask to sway.

"And don't you feel that you lose your sense of three-dimensionality when you only use one eye to see things? And your field of vision is also reduced by half out of thin air... Hmm, I suddenly seem to understand why you were beaten so badly."

What does it have to do with you!?

As if seeing the dissatisfaction in her eyes, Lin Qiao flicked Kirishima Touka's forehead.

"Not bad, very energetic! Since he still has the energy to speak, it seems he won't die for a while."

He gently placed the mask on her face... It was so light that it would slide off her face if she moved too much.

Then, he turned his attention to the unconscious Fueguchi Ryoko: "But the situation on the other side is not so good."

Even though the ghoul's vitality saved her from death on the spot, she had multiple injuries on her body. If she didn't receive prompt treatment, she would be in great danger if she continued to suffer like this.

Lin Qiao turned around and in the process leaned close to Fuekou Hinami's ear and whispered in a low voice.

"...Take them both away and find a place to hide."

"Eh? But I should go..."

He quickly pointed to the recessed corner of the wall. Although the place was a bit small, it was big enough for three people to hide in if they squeezed together.

He pushed the girl, who had not yet reacted, towards Kirishima Touka, and then looked at Mado Goo and Amon Kotaro who were ready for battle.

Under the heavy rain, there was a distance of several meters between the two sides.

It was like the prelude to a duel between masters, they faced each other, but no one made the first move...

If that's really all.

His attention was not entirely on the two people in front of him. His sight passed over the two investigators in front of him and extended to somewhere farther away.

After the transformation, his vision was greatly enhanced, but when he looked around, he still could not find any trace of another time traveler.

Whether it was the slow transformation or the defenseless exposure of his back, it was all done deliberately to attract the opponent's attack.

But the result was somewhat different from what he expected.

This situation where the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light is a bit troublesome.

But never mind, let's just take it one step at a time.

Behind them, Hinami Fueguchi was pulling Ryoko Fueguchi and Touka Kirishima backwards quickly.

Although she still didn't quite understand why Lin Qiao had become so scary, just as Lin Qiao reached out to her in the deep darkness, she still chose to believe him.

Chapter 29: Unfortunately, my opponent is me

Although Lin Qiao had no intention of targeting the two investigators, there is a saying that goes "the speaker may not mean it but the listener may take it seriously."

"Arrogant guy!" Amon Kotaro smacked his lips and rushed forward waving the huge metal rod in his hand.
