Is there Kamen Rider 01 in Date Away?

"I am also responsible for knowing that you don't like the pungent smell of perfume but not taking any effective measures. Since I have a responsibility, I can't just sit there and do nothing." Zhenlian didn't say anything nagging like "We are partners" or "You can rely on me as much as you want". She just sat silently in front of the workbench and said it as if she was stating a fact.

"Man-chan..." Yakuya looked at Man-chan with a touch of emotion, "Thank you."

"No... I just want to say that although I'm not gentle, I can still do the most basic responsibility." Zhenlian turned her head away uncomfortably when she was suddenly thanked, and then stretched out her hand as if to change the subject, "Give me the tweezers."

"Yes!" Yakushi nodded and obediently handed the tweezers to Zhenlian.

"First, fix the base..." Shinrei carefully glued several pieces of grey glass together. Yakuya was just waiting for Shinrei's instructions. After all, Yakuya's previous works were too amazing, so Shinrei was unlikely to let her do the main work.

Looking at the 3D model of the artwork provided by the exhibition organizer on the computer screen, Zhen Lian spent a long time to complete the base. After assembling it, the two of them had to check it carefully. If they found any mistakes after the glue had dried, they would have to dismantle the part they had worked so hard to assemble again.

Zhen Lian couldn't let go of those small fragments. Regardless of whether throwing away these fragments would make the restoration less accurate, if these small debris fell to the ground and were stepped on by their bare feet, they would suffer.

After confirming that the base of the perfect world was correct, the next step was to repair the body of the perfect world. Compared to the simple base, repairing the body of the perfect world was not only significantly more difficult, but also required the cooperation of two people. It was impossible for Zhenlian to complete it alone. Although he was very reluctant, he could only take the risk of rebuilding it and let the somewhat unreliable Yakushi to help.

While Shinren was holding the fragments and aligning them, he instructed Yakuya, "Help me fix the lower part."

"Yes." Yakushi nodded and obediently followed Zhenlian's instructions to stabilize the part below that had not yet formed.

This was a delicate and patient job, and it took Zhenlian nearly an hour just to repair that small part.

Looking at the completed part, Zhenlian looked up at the clock in the workroom - twelve o'clock in the evening. Although it was not particularly late for Zhenlian who stayed up late all night, she felt that she was about to burn out because of this kind of work that consumed her patience and nerves. What's more, Yakushiya didn't even have dinner in order to complete her "Great Outer God".

"Let's eat." Manren stretched, but he and Yakuya discovered something was wrong the next second - Manren's left hand was actually stuck to Yakuya's right hand!

“Eh hey hey?” Yejuya looked at his hands that couldn’t be pulled apart and immediately became flustered. “What’s going on!?”

"What the hell! You're stuck with glue!" Shinren shook her left hand several times, but couldn't shake off Yakuya's right hand. "Hurry up and go to the bathroom to use hot water!"

The two of them ran to the bathroom, pulling each other. The hot, transparent liquid from the faucet flowed through the gaps between their palms, but it had no effect. Their hands showed no sign of separating at all.

In order to prevent the glue from losing its stickiness over time, Zhenlian specially bought the best quality super glue.

Seeing the two hands still stuck together, Zhenlian actually wished for the first time in her life that she had bought a fake product: "Shit! Does the merchant of this super glue know how to do business? Wouldn't it be better to mix a little fake stuff to make more money?"

Yejuya looked at the two hands stuck together, tilted his head and thought for a while: "I think I have a solution."

Zhenlian looked at Yakuya doubtfully, and an ominous premonition arose spontaneously.

A few minutes later, screams of Manreya and Yakushi were heard from Manreya's house.

Zhenlian used a medical cotton swab to apply burn medicine on the two people's stuck hands. Not only Zhenlian's hands, but also Yakushi's originally white and tender hands were now red and swollen like his hands.

Seeing Yakuya's tearful eyes, Zhenlian showed a look of despair: "You actually used boiling water, how can I explain it? You are worthy of it."

"I'm sorry..." Tears welled up in Yakushi's eyes, and he didn't know whether it was because of the scalding water or because he was upset about the bad idea he had come up with.

[But what on earth was wrong with me that I actually believed her proposal. ]

After all, Yui had mentioned before that Yakuya was rather clumsy. Shinren laughed at herself in her heart, and then continued to apply medicine to her and Yakuya's hands.

goo—

The two of them were hungry at the same time. In order to repair the artwork, Yakuya didn't even have dinner. Shinren didn't feel like finishing her meal, and her stomach was also playing the empty city game.

"My pity, I'm hungry."

"Me too."

Although their hands were glued together, they were still able to cook some simple dishes. After a while, some simple side dishes and a large bowl of rice were placed on the table - due to special circumstances, the two could only eat one bowl of rice.

With her right hand still free, Jin Lian naturally took on the responsibility of holding the chopsticks.

Whenever rice and dishes were brought to Yakushi's mouth, Yakushi would open his mouth wide like a baby bird waiting to be fed and obediently eat the food brought by Zhenlian.

[So cute…]

This was the first time that Zhenlian was so close to Yakushiya, and she was feeding Yakushiya.

Yakuya is an impeccable beauty, which Shinren knows very well. However, it is only now that Shinren truly understands this.

The way Yakushi opened his mouth to ask for food reminded people of those pet animals. Shinrei, who saw this, felt her heartbeat speed up and her cheeks felt a little hot. At this moment, Shinrei thought it might be nice for the two of them to stick together like this.

"So you can blush, Manrei." Yakuya looked at Manrei with a little surprise. After all, Manrei was the man who didn't react to the charm offensive of the Yamai sisters in the previous charm battle of Orimijima. Yakuya once doubted whether Manrei was not interested in girls.

"Your impression of me is a bit strange." After hearing this, the blush on Shinren's face faded instantly, and she complained, reflexively wanting to hold her forehead. However, she forgot that his left hand and Yakuya's right hand were stuck together, and the scene turned into Shinren rubbing Yakuya's hand on her face like a hand fetishist.

"Eh?" Seeing Shinren rubbing his hand, Yakushi's face began to turn red.

When Shinren felt that the nails on his face were not his familiar ones, but Yakuya's tender hands, he immediately put them down in a hurry: "Sorry, I didn't mean it."

Facing the apology from Shinren, Yakuya was a little embarrassed: "No...it doesn't matter, if Shinren wants to rub it, then go ahead. I was just scared, that's all."

After this awkward situation, the two continued to eat. Shinrei picked up a piece of green pepper and handed it to Yakushi, but this time Yakushi didn't open his mouth obediently.

"Zhen Lian, this green fruit of sin is extremely poisonous to the Son of Storm. Please put it down immediately." Yakushi's tone became childish again, but the disgust on her face could not be hidden at all.

"Your setting is copied from Kryptonite and Superman. And Yui seems to be the son of the storm, so how come she has no problem? Open your mouth!" Manren didn't let Yakuya use his chuunibyou to make jokes and directly put the green pepper to her mouth.

"I don't want it! You're obviously trying to force it on me because you feel sorry for yourself and you don't like it!"

“…Open your mouth!”

"Is that so! I don't want green peppers!" After saying that, Yakuya grabbed Zhenlian's right hand with her left hand, and then forcibly stuffed the green peppers back into Zhenlian's mouth.

"Kukuku! You are no match for me, the Son of Storm! Just finish eating the green peppers obediently!" Yakuya's left hand controlled her right hand. Being in an advantageous position, she immediately smiled triumphantly.

This action of Yakushi completely ignited the sad soul of Zhenlian who was determined to fight to the end.

Zhenlian held a green pepper in her mouth and spoke a little unclearly, but Yakuya could still understand: "Don't give me that, you have to eat this green pepper today no matter what!"

As she said that, Manren's face quickly moved over, trying to put the green pepper in her mouth into Yakushi's mouth.

Just at this time.

"I wonder how Mr. Manre and Miss Yakuya are doing. Let's bring some snacks to them..." Shiono, who came out of the Elf Apartment to bring midnight snacks to Manre and Yakuya, just opened the door and saw Manre and Yakuya holding hands, Manre's lips and Yakuya's lips were almost touching, and Yakuya seemed to be begging for mercy in a low voice.

"Mr. Manre and... Miss Yakuya, are... are kissing?" Shion's face turned red instantly. She covered her eyes with both hands and secretly observed the two of them through her fingers.

"Hate it, Manreya's kissing skills are so rough. But I don't hate it, wuhehehehe!"

Mana and Yakuya might not have thought that the green pepper war between them would make an innocent little loli grow a lot.

Chapter 3 Yamai Artwork (Part )

Even after using various methods, Zhenlian and Yakuya's hands could not be separated. It was getting late, and the two of them, who were already exhausted from the high-intensity work, could no longer bear the sleepiness, so it was inevitable that they would sleep in the same bed tonight.

In the room filled with darkness, the two of them lay quietly on the bed. Shinren stole a glance in the direction of Yakushi from the corner of his eye. With Shinren's eyes adapted to the darkness and the moonlight, he could barely see that Yakushi was not asleep either.

Seeing that Yakuya was still wearing her daily clothes, Zhenlian felt a little relieved, because their hands were stuck together, so Yakuya had no way to change into her nightgown.

If the girl lying next to him at this moment was only wearing a nightgown and underwear as usual, and if he treated her roughly, her body would be completely exposed to his sight, it would be hard for Zhenlian not to lose her mind and do something out of the ordinary.

When he thought of this, Zhenlian sighed secretly. When he watched ACGN works before, when he encountered such plots, Zhenlian always criticized those male protagonists for not taking action after sleeping with girls. But when he encountered such a situation himself, he could empathize with the feelings of those male protagonists.

After silently apologizing in her heart, Zhenlian decided to turn a blind eye to it and turned her back to Yakuya to avoid thinking too much.

However, Manren seemed to have forgotten the fact that his hand was stuck to Yakushiya, and when Manren turned over, Yakushiya's arm also hugged Manren.

【! 】

When Zhenlian felt the girl's arm touching his body, he finally reacted. Just when he was about to turn over, he felt the girl's body temperature and soft touch from behind, and even vaguely felt the beating of her heart in her chest.

Yakuya hugged Zhenlian from behind.

"Man, I'm sorry I got into trouble." Yakuya hugged Man and whispered like a child who had made a mistake, "If it was Yui, she wouldn't be as clumsy as me and make mistakes like me... Man feels the same way, right? Man should like Yui more than me, right?"

Hearing what Yakuya said, Shinrei frowned. It was impossible to have a happy ending no matter whether she answered "yes" or "no". After thinking for a while, Shinrei said, "I like Yui just like I like cupcakes, and I like Yakuya just like I like brownies. By the way, I like both cakes."

"Huh? Why do you say that?"

Yakuya was puzzled by Shinren's comparison of girls to desserts, but Shinren didn't seem to be planning to answer her question: "Because crows look like desks."

"What kind of answer is that?"

“It just means there’s no reason.”

"Cunning!" After saying that, Yajuya became angry and stopped talking.

Seeing Yakuya throwing a tantrum, Zhen Lian sighed: "Actually, you don't need to worry about these things. You have to believe that the so-called love and attention are equal. Anyway, for me, I am very happy to sleep in the same bed with a cute girl like Yakuya."

"This, this, this... then, that... of course! After all, I am the son of the storm, the wind spirit Yamai! The embodiment of charm!" Shinren's unabashed expression of her true feelings made Yakuya suddenly at a loss, and he could only use the attack of his second year disease to barely ease the embarrassment.

After calming down a bit, Yakuya seemed to have mustered up the courage to speak: "Actually, I'm also very happy to spend a night with Zhenlian!"

"..."

"Really pitiful?"

"Huhuhu..."

"Hey! She's asleep!" Yakuya suddenly felt that the feeling of nervousness that made his heart beat faster just now disappeared. Looking at Zhenlian's sleeping face that looked like a baby's, he stuck out his pink tongue and said, "You actually let me hesitate for so long and then fell asleep directly. How cunning!"

But this may not be a bad thing. At least Yekuya will not think too much. After closing his eyes, Yekuya whispered good night: "Good night, Zhenlian."

Tomorrow

The warm morning sunlight shines on Yakushi's face.

"Ha——" After standing up, Yakushi yawned and stretched.

But it was through this stretch that Yakushi discovered that something seemed to be missing in his hand.

“Separated!”

Yakuya looked at his right hand in amazement, but after the amazement, he saw Zhen Lian who was still sleeping soundly.

Looking at Zhenlian's face, Yakuya felt his face burning. As long as he stared at Zhenlian's lips, there was always a magical attraction that made Yakuya get closer and closer to his face.

"Good morning. Yakuya, Mayune, wake up!"

At this time, the only sounds were the door opening and the sound of evening strings.

"Aaaah, Xixian! I didn't cheat!"

"who!"

Not only Yakuya, but Shinren was also frightened awake. He jumped up from the bed reflexively, and his head hit Yakuya's head directly, creating a star effect. Then he groaned and fell down softly again.

"Condemned. Yakuya actually wanted to sneak away, not only to sleep with Shinrei, but also to kiss her."

During breakfast, Xixian was harsh in her words, but her face showed an expression of tax evasion.

"I didn't! And why did Yui run to Manreya's room without knocking? That's suspicious!" Yakuya, whose face was red with anger and shyness, touched his forehead that was swollen from the collision just now, "and it caused injuries to my forehead and Manreya's."

As the victim, Zhen Lian looked dead, "I was scared awake by you."

"It's funny. Shy Yakuya is so cute too."

"Wuwuwu..." Yakuya showed an expression like a sulking child, "I swear to make Yuxian embarrassed and laugh at you!"

"Fearless. Come on, Xixian will not lose."

"Zhen Lian, let's work hard together!"

"It's none of my business." After finishing her meal, Shinren stood up and put her hand on Yakuya's head and patted it hard. "Today we still have to repair the artwork and get an apology from the author, Mr. Nara. Let's work hard together."

Realizing that his crisis was not over yet, Yakushi suddenly softened like a deflated balloon: "Got it..."

Seven o'clock in the afternoon.

[A little further to the left…]

At six o'clock on Sunday afternoon, Zhenlian took the last piece and carefully placed it in the correct place.

"Finally finished!"

Looking at the perfect world that had been roughly repaired, Zhenlian stretched lazily. Although there were obvious signs of repair, there were basically no major problems.

Yakuya sat down on the sofa and said, "It's finally over!"

Zhen Lian rubbed her aching wrist and said, "It's not over yet. We must get the original author's forgiveness before this matter can be completely over."

Mr. Nara lives on a small hill in the suburbs of Tengu City. Faced with such a remote address, Zhenlian can't help but wonder whether those so-called artists or hermits are all socially anxious people.

Tomorrow is Monday, and Shinren doesn't want to ask for leave from school, so he can only take Yakuya to see Mr. Nara now.

Manren brought Yakuya to the garage of the Gokawa family. A motorcycle with black and fluorescent yellow as the main colors and Kamen Rider 01's iconic locust antennae on the front was a motorcycle with a near-future sense of technology. This is Manren's favorite car, the Leaping Locust.

"Wow!" Yakuya's eyes sparkled when he saw Manren's motorcycle, and he looked around like a curious child, "Manren, so you really have a motorcycle!"

"turn out to be?"

"No, I just feel for some reason that Zhenlian should have a motorcycle."

"It's incomprehensible." Zhenlian straddled the motorcycle, and the loud roar of the engine sounded. Zhenlian patted the back seat to motion for Yakushi to sit on.
