Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

But that's also why, if it can make you feel a little more relaxed, I want to, I want to be able to bear at least some of your sadness for you, more or less.

I am really grateful to you. Although you are a very strange person, you did save me and you care about me very much. You are such an excellent person, but you never despise me.

If it's Ash, he will definitely understand me, right?

"Dr. Ash, Ash, I have something I want to tell you."

“Actually…actually!”

Finally, Nonoka mustered up the courage, no matter that she had been bullied in junior high school or that she was now a 22-year-old adult who had accomplished nothing.

She became a legendary warrior and received a mission. After eight years, she revealed the secret that she thought she would hide forever and take to the grave for the first time.

“I am…”

Even Ash was drawn to the photo frame in his hand by Hua's extremely serious aura.

"Actually, I'm the cure yell, precure!"

"------"

It was as if the picture on the player had been paused. As Hua raised her fists, mustered her courage, and opened her mouth to shout loudly, everything, whether for her or Ash, stopped and froze at this moment because of this sentence that contained a huge amount of information.

“…”

“…”

quiet--

Finally, the crisp sound of Ash putting down the frame broke the confrontation that was about to continue. The man, who was not affected at all, kept an unchanged expression and raised his hand to pat the shoulder of Hua, who was just waiting for the only answer.

"Nice joke, keep it up."

[Bonus] Case File 51 Nonoka's Tragic Day

Today is the day of the movie release for my good friend, Saaya Yakushiji’s latest movie, “Shin Metal Hero”.

Mom and Dad couldn't make it that day because they had work. Xiaoniao, who should have been fine, looked at the invitations in my and Ash's hands with a strange look, and suddenly said she couldn't go either. When I asked her why, she looked so glaring...

But among the people I know, besides us who were invited, there's also the resurgent Yu and Emi Ryo who are coming, and there's said to be a ton of industry celebrities coming too, even though I've never heard of any of them. But anyway, I absolutely can't embarrass my good friend! It's such an important day for an important friend, I can't be late no matter what!

Nonoka went to sleep with this mood, and didn't realize it until the sun shone on her face and she wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth.

I really overslept.

"Whoa, whoa--"

The water from the faucet splashed on my face a few times and I thought I had washed myself. I picked up the bread and stuffed it into my mouth. As a result, the choking feeling almost made my eyes pop out.

After finally putting on the prepared red dress in a hurry, she stepped on the skirt and hit her head because she was too anxious. When she stood up with her hands covering her head, she hit her foot on the edge of the table. She covered her head with one hand and her toes with the other, and jumped to the entrance on one foot. She put on her high heels, which she hadn't worn for a long time, and twisted her heels after walking only two steps.

“Ouch—it hurts!”

"What is this woman doing?"

What must have happened to Mr. Yaxiu to make him fall for her... With this face, she will definitely not be able to get married, right?

Nono watched everything that happened with disdain on his face.

In the end, the embarrassed sister crawled out of the door in a very indecent posture.

"You said you would let me wait for you, but you dared to make me wait for such a long time. You are really brave. Miss Nonoka, you are the first one. You can be proud of it."

The moment she stepped out of the house, she was startled by the voice calling her full name from the front.

"Hey, who was that person who said you absolutely can't be late?"

"Yes - I'm sorry!" Feeling the pressure coming down on him, he immediately straightened his body and bowed 90 degrees in that direction. He raised his head slightly and saw the man whose upper half of the face was covered by the shadow of black bangs, leaving him with only a scary black shadow and cold eyes.

"I was so nervous yesterday...I accidentally overslept..."

"Is that an excuse? You overslept and can't you hurry up? Too slow!" Ash, dressed in a smartly tailored suit, stood before Nonoka, his expression stern and unwavering as he reprimanded her for her performance. "Think about those special forces in Ultraman. If they were as lazy as you, wouldn't they have to wait until the Earth was plowed twice by monsters before leisurely flying out? In that case, they might as well just outsource national defense to the Land of Light!"

“You actually used Ultraman as a metaphor—what? Besides, if there really were some monster, I would…” Hua, who had been about to retort, lost confidence and spoke in a lower and lower voice.

Anyway, no matter when a monster appears, Tomorrow Energy will remind me... I haven't been late once in the past eight years...

"What am I?"

"It's nothing, I'm really sorry!" Facing Ash's increasingly cold eyes, Hua finally gave in and apologized honestly and admitted her mistake.

"But, Dr. Ash came so early, why didn't you wake me up?"

"What are you talking about?" Ash's eyes flashed with a strange light. "You are a woman, I am a man, there are differences between men and women, how can I enter a woman's room casually?"

"..."

Huo Huo, you have done so many excessive things in the past that showed you didn't treat me as a woman, and now you are talking to me about this?

I originally thought that I would be lectured by the angry Ash again, but I saw Ash sigh lightly, pat his slightly curly pink hair that covered his bangs, and walk to the back of the car with his leg, which was obviously numb due to a sprained ankle, holding up the side of his body.

"Really... you haven't even brushed your hair since you woke up." Ash said helplessly, pointing a thumbs-up at the pale yellow car behind him, which had what looked like some mysterious symbol printed on it. "I was going to take you for a motorcycle ride... but forget it, why don't you go to Sherlock's car and fix your hair? It's all a mess after sleeping."

"Chicken, chicken coop?!" He hurriedly ran to the rearview mirror of the car, and saw his messy hair in the mirror, revealing the flower hiding his right eye. He screamed "Wow wow" and ran quickly into the back seat.

"Ash, please drive a little faster!" Nonoka, with her hair tied up in a beautiful ponytail, saw Ash sitting behind the wheel. She glanced at the time and said nervously, "We're running out of time if we don't hurry up!"

"Drive faster? Then fasten your seatbelt. It's been a while since I've heard anyone tell me to drive faster."

Ash, seemingly waiting for her to say this, gave the flower behind him a bright smile that made her feel uneasy.

"Of course, taking a shortcut, right?"

"If we take a shortcut... can we catch up?"

"You know, I used to be known as the TPC's little car king! Even New Town couldn't beat me, so leave it to me!"

With dazzling movements of shifting gears, starting, and pressing the accelerator, and with the screams of people pulling at their seat belts at the back, Sherlock's car left two circles of tire marks on the ground and "soared into the sky" in an almost wild manner.

"Ash, stop talking about your delusional settings—Aaaaaaaaaaa—what are you doing!!"

No, my ponytail——why is it standing sideways! ?

"Aren't you trying to take a shortcut? I'm walking on the wall."

"No—don't—ah—!"

——The dividing line of Yaxiu’s car skills——

"Is that Ash and Hana?"

Looking at the man laughing wildly in the car that was passing by like a whirlwind tornado, and the pink-haired woman leaning against the car window with tears in her eyes, Yu and Emi who were passing by in a taxi were stunned with their mouths open.

"Besides them, there is no one else, right?"

"Yes, yes..."

"We're here! What? We still have time, right?" Ash glanced at the time on his watch, nodded with satisfaction, and then rushed to the woman behind him and said, "Ah, if you want to vomit, press the button to open the window. Don't make the car dirty."

"vomit--"

Hua Fei, who finally got Ash's permission, pushed the door open and got out of the car. He finally found a small corner and spit out a rainbow.

So shameful, so shameful, so shameful...

"Super shock..."

【Bonus】Case File 52 Beautiful People, Sad Heart

A yellow-painted Sherlock car was parked in front of the convention center where the film press conference was held. The passengers inside did not get off the car immediately, which attracted passers-by to stop and take a look.

"Hey, isn't this the venue for the movie "Neo Metal Heroes"? " Some people even looked up at the sign on the convention center when passing by, repeatedly confirming that this might be the venue for the filming of a remake of Ultraman Tiga.

People who know the business are all curious about who drove such a highly restored prop car here.

"This Sherlock car is so authentic!"

Of course it has been restored. Daigo and Noriko both rode in this car back then... If Ash could hear their thoughts, he would probably introduce it proudly like this.

After switching the car windows to blackout mode, the noise from the outside world was only a window away. A man was making inappropriate gestures towards the woman sitting in the back, even rubbing and kneading her face, touching her all over!

"You! You said you forgot to put on makeup and asked me to touch it up for you, so don't move!"

Hearing Ash's somewhat angry voice, Nonoka, who was constantly squeaking and struggling, could only suppress her shame and stop what she was doing, allowing the other party's large hands to continue kneading her cheeks, which were getting hotter and hotter.

"Kosu~Gu!" Hana-shy was at a loss as her cheeks were being pinched repeatedly, even her voice was distorted by the other person's hands. "How could I—how could I pretend to be like Nisuke to Ginka! Gu! Huhuhu, Hiroko! Stop pinching me, it's so itchy~ so itchydesu!"

"Just trust my skills. This is a unique combination of techniques I learned from that chiropractor and the freelance makeup artist. I guarantee that this will give you, a country girl, a completely new look. Just trust me!"

With a powder puff in his left hand and an eyebrow pencil in his right hand, Ash freely used Nonoka's face, which was unexpectedly delicate and cute after being kneaded and unfolded, as a painting, and unfolded his own "artistic creation"!

Ash, dressed in a stylish suit, walked out from the front of Sherlock's car, opened the back door, and extended an inviting hand to the beautiful lady inside.

"Please give me your hand, lady."

"Mr. Ash, flowers—this way!"

Having been waiting at the lobby reception desk for a long time, Yu and Emi waved to the two newcomers from afar. However, when Ash held their right hands and their slightly shy delicate face came into their sight, their raised hands suddenly froze in mid-air, and they were all stunned and speechless for a moment.

As if in response to their greetings, her face was as beautiful as a lotus flower and her carefully braided pink hair revealed her right eye, which was usually covered. Her skin was white with a delicate rosy red behind her elegant makeup, and her exquisite light pink lip color gave people a sense of mystery and sexy charm that she had never had before.

The exquisite red evening gown borrowed from her mother was like a red rose, which perfectly highlighted her petite and lovely figure. Her slender and fair legs could be vaguely seen from the parted hem of the skirt. The soles of her high heels made crisp sounds on the ground because she held Ash's arm so that she would not fall.

"Emi! Yu!"

Beautiful...beautiful girl, who are you?

It wasn't until they heard the familiar voice coming from the other person's mouth that they reacted. With her mouth twitching constantly, Emi couldn't help but want to step forward and ask, because compared with her usual impression of Noguchi Noka, the sight of such an ugly duckling leaping and evolving into a white swan was still too shocking.

How could she look like the reckless country girl they were familiar with?

"Ah, flower...little flower." As the unique flower approached, Yu felt a sense of inferiority, even the words he had prepared seemed to stumble. "You are so beautiful today."

"Really? It would be great if you think I'm beautiful too!" Hua Shiji also noticed the gazes coming at her from all directions. When she thought that there would be a day when she would be able to attract other people's attention with her feminine charm, she felt shy and at the same time couldn't help but feel surprised.

"Mr. Ash, Ash!" Hana shook the arm of the man who was acting as her crutch, her eyes full of anticipation. "How am I now? This is your masterpiece!"

"Hmm..." After hearing Hua's slightly smug voice, Ash lifted her chin without caring about other people's eyes, and after looking at her carefully for a while with his aggressive dark eyes, he finally came to an unexpected conclusion.

"She's really pretty." After hearing Ash's words, the corners of Hua's mouth curled up in satisfaction. "Indeed, she really does look like him."

If you look closely, Nonoka with light makeup and lipstick really looks like Cure Yell.

"Eh?"

Hua blinked, and the smile on her face quickly shrank, turning into a look of complete confusion.

Like....am I just like everyone else to him...?

"Ah, it does look alike..." Ash was thinking to himself, the more he looked, the more similar it looked. When he was about to figure out something from his increasingly lost face, Emi rushed in with blonde twintails.

"Stop—St—op!" Emi rushed in, waving her hands wildly in front of Ash with exaggerated movements, interrupting his thoughts, with a look of dissatisfaction on her face.

"Wait, what do you mean by that? Can you tell this to Hana-senpai?"

You, are you some light novel protagonist who can't see Hana's feelings? It's too much to say such selfish words!

"What?" Ash, who was suddenly scolded, naturally had a bad face. He didn't understand how he had offended her. "What did I say?"

"I'm talking to you, Hana-senpai, she—"

"Emi...."

"Ah, I finally found it!" Another voice interrupted at the right moment. "I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Saiya!"

As the heroine of the movie, the space criminal assistant "Mimi", Saya was naturally one of the stars attracting attention at the press conference, and she also walked forward with the attention attracted by the spotlight.

"What's wrong? The atmosphere doesn't seem good." At this moment, Sa Ling also saw the unhappy flower behind Ash and couldn't help but cover her mouth in surprise. "Ah, the flowers today are so beautiful. I can't take my eyes off them."

"Ha, how could that be~" The teasing from her companions diluted the bad atmosphere. Hua rubbed the hem of her skirt with her fingers, feeling a little embarrassed. "Compared to a big star like you, Saaya, I'm still far behind."

"Even if Hua compliments me like this, it's useless because we are friends~"

The relaxed chat with friends made Sa Ling, who had been deeply involved in social activities on the crew and in the entertainment area recently, smile sincerely.

"Okay, don't just stand there and watch. Let's go in first."

[Bonus] Case File 53: The Intruder

Thanks to Saaya's relationship, Nonoka and her friends got seats in the first few rows of the press conference. She was obviously in a better mood and was now swinging her delicate legs happily. Saaya, on the side, was quietly talking to her good sister Yu next to her.
