Is there Kamen Rider 01 in Date Away?

Although Miku has done many excessive things and is arrogant and conceited, after learning about Miku's past, although Shinren does not show it on the surface, she still feels very sympathetic towards Miku in her heart.

In Zhenlian's eyes, she was just a pitiful person. Although she was wrong, the two most serious space quakes did not cause any casualties. Although she was wrong, she was not guilty of death. And Zhenlian was not qualified to punish her.

And Miku also helped them a lot. But Shinren hurt her.

"Rei, are you okay?"

Boom!

Regardless of the possibility of reopening the wound on her arm, Zhenlian punched the bedside table, which was deformed and scarlet blood seeped out from under Zhenlian's bandage.

"Why..." Zhenlian covered her head and shouted loudly, as if crying and roaring, "I have already made up my mind to protect everyone! Why is it still like this! And it's still... and it's still me who made me... What have I done?"

"I am really the worst guy in the world..." Words of self-blame came out of her mouth, and even Zhenlian herself didn't realize that tears had already overflowed from her eyes.

Seeing Zhenlian's appearance, his normally calm expression was also moved: "Actually..."

"I'll go check on Miku."

Before Lingyin finished her words, Zhenlian had already stood up, leaning against the wall, and walked out the door. When she opened the door, she saw Mijiu's face with a complicated expression.

"Meijiu?" Zhenlian looked at Meijiu standing at the door in shock. According to Lingyin, she should still be lying in the emergency room. She looked intact, even her clothes were spiritual clothes instead of hospital gowns.

"So you're okay, that's great..."

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah--!"

Very suddenly, for no apparent reason, Mijiu screamed and ran away without looking back.

"Hey, wait!"

A hour ago

With the help of Yoshino, Yakuya and Yui who relieved Miku's brainwashing, Shiori successfully sealed Tohka, and Miku was temporarily taken in by Fraxinus because she was overdrawn and injured in both her spiritual power and physical strength.

"You must be joking! There is no way I will accept the seal!"

"Miku, this is really not your fault, Manrei-kun."

In the lounge, Miku was making a scene willfully, and Shiori wanted to go up to dissuade her, but Miku retorted: "Humph. Shiori-san, you are wrong. Not only did Hiden Manrei not protect me, but she also hurt me. I am right! Saying that you are a fan of Tsukino is just a false and pretty talk!"

Shiori, who was temporarily in the wrong, could only leave the lounge and sighed to Kotori: "I'm sorry, Kotori. I did lose the bet."

"It's not your fault, sis. No one would have expected the existence of metal locusts." Kotori held the pearls in her mouth and frowned slightly, "She was crying her eyes out when Manren was carried away. Why are you playing tsundere? Tsundere has been out of fashion for a long time."

In fact, to deal with a situation like Miku, you have to make things clear to her and let her know that Manren is really trying her best not to hurt her.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Meijiu will not listen to soft words now, and must use hard tactics. But the question is, who will be responsible?

Shiori is definitely not a good choice. If his favorability plummets, the seal will be in trouble. The other elves will have to get along with each other in the future, so it would not be appropriate to make things too awkward. As for the other crew members, their words will not be very credible.

"Let me do it."

Lingyin stood up and walked towards the lounge.

Seeing Lingyin coming in, Miku didn't look happy either: "If you want to persuade me to understand Hiden Shinren or something, forget it. I'm not a patient with Stockholm syndrome."

Lingyin didn't start by saying something about wanting to understand Zhenlian. Instead, she sat down and took out a tablet and handed it to Miku.

Mijiu turned on her tablet, and it showed a piece of news about Matsumoto. Mijiu would never forget Matsumoto in her life. He was the producer who fabricated a lot of negative news about Mijiu and ruined her reputation.

The news content was that a few days ago, Matsumoto was hung naked on the Tiangu Tower by someone, and then a lot of negative news and crimes of Matsumoto were exposed. This person was completely socially dead and went to jail.

"This is..." Mijiu looked at the news in shock.

"If nothing unexpected happens, it was done by Zhenlian." Lingyin said lightly, and suddenly changed the subject by asking, "Meijiu, do you know the habits of locusts?"

"Huh? Why are you suddenly saying this?"

Without answering Miku's question, Lingyin just explained to herself: "Locusts are very vicious insects. During a locust plague, if a locust swarm appears an individual that does not conform to the group's wishes, it will be torn to pieces and devoured."

"Wait, are you trying to say..." Miku's eyes widened. She had seen the locust plague not long ago. This was the attack method of the 01 Metal Cluster Locust.

"It wasn't without cost that Shinren stopped me from running away. His whole body, especially his right arm, was eaten by metal locusts. Although the injury is not serious now, I believe that Shinren was prepared to die to protect you at that time."

"And even if Zhenlian really killed you, we would feel sad about it, but no one would blame him except Zhenlian himself. Although this sounds very uncomfortable, it is a pity that this is the truth."

After hearing Lingyin's words, Mijiu fell silent. She didn't completely understand in her heart, but she was still afraid, still afraid that she would be betrayed again after trusting Zhenlian.

At that time, what should she do when she lost her "voice" due to the seal?

Proof. Mijiu needed proof.

If we want to obtain proof, we must experiment.

Now the experimental results are out. Mijiu, who was peeking outside the door, saw the boy feeling guilty because he thought he had hurt her. She saw the boy who didn't care about anything crying because he thought he had hurt her.

It's possible that he was acting, it's possible that he was afraid of retribution, it's possible that...

There are so many possibilities, but Mijiu still can't convince herself. The moment Shinren's first reaction when she saw her was not to blame her or why Lingyin scared her, but to feel relieved, Mijiu couldn't help it anymore.

All the emotions in my heart erupted like a volcano, my head was in a mess. After screaming, I kept running forward. I didn't know why I was running, it was just to make myself feel better.

[Why! Why! Why! Why…why didn’t I meet him at that time?]

After running for an unknown amount of time, Mijiu stopped in front of the window. It took her a while to calm her heart, which was pounding wildly, whether because of the intense exercise or other reasons. Looking at her own reflection in the glass, she was already in tears.

"Why are you running so fast? I'm so tired..."

Shinren limped on crutches to catch up with Miku.

"Don't... don't come over here..." At this moment, Mijiu didn't know how to face Zhenlian. With tears on her face, she could only turn her back to him.

[Are you angry again? ]

Zhen Lian sighed, and then said: "Happy Oxygen, My Sweet Heart, Doki Doki Crisis..."

Hearing these song titles, Miku was stunned. These songs were so familiar and nostalgic to her. These were the songs she sang when she was Tsukino Yomi. Yet, Shinren had memorized all of them!

"I've listened to all these songs. Now I'm your die-hard fan...!"

"Thanks……"

Meijiu burst into laughter and turned around to hug Zhenlian: "Thank you, thank you..."

--split line--

In the head office of DEM, Ellen, with bandages wrapped all over her body, walked out of the infirmary on crutches. Although she looked bruised and battered, her murderous expression made all other employees make way for the injured strongest magician.

Westcott was in the chairman's office, spinning around in his swivel chair like a child. "Oh, my dear Alan. The doctor recommends that you rest. If you don't follow the doctor's advice, you will suffer."

"No need." Allen denied, "Compared to this, I think it is necessary to raise the overall danger level of Hiden Shinren. His strength is no less than that of the reversed form. Isn't it a bit ironic to only give him a B?"

After hearing what Alan said, Vescott nodded: "Indeed. Previously, its performance was not even as good as Scorpion, so it was at the same danger level as Hermit. Now it seems that its growth potential cannot be ignored."

After that, Westcott teased Alan again: "I don't know if it's my illusion, Alan, you seem to be paying more and more attention to Hiden Shinren, are you in love?"

"Impossible." Allen directly denied Westcott's statement. "Also, how is the repair status of the manifestation device Pandragon?"

Westcott shrugged. "I'm sorry, Alan. Your exclusive manifestation device has been gnawed to pieces by the locusts and is completely scrapped. It's a pity that DEM's artwork will be thrown to the scrap tricycle tomorrow."

"how come……"

"Don't be sad, Alan. By the way, besides the strongest magician, are you interested in obtaining other strongest titles? For example... the strongest Kamen Rider?" A mysterious smile appeared on Westcott's face, and he took out two dark gold keys and placed them on the table.

One is etched with the Caucasus beetle and the English words "Amazing Caucasus" are printed on it, and the other is etched with the extinct creature Baryonyx aegyptiaca and the English words "Awaking Arsino" are printed on it.

"Sublimation Key and Extinction Key, why do you have these things, Ike?" Alan picked up the two keys in surprise.

"Of course it's Ark." Westcott opened his arms. "When I got back to the plane, I didn't go back home directly. Instead, I went to Dawn City. I didn't expect Ark to be so hospitable and give me such a big gift."

After that, Westcott turned to look at Allen: "I'm sorry, Allen. Your exclusive drive may need to wait for a while, you don't mind, right?"

"How could that be? If it is your wish, I will become the strongest Kamen Rider." Alan clenched the two keys in his hands, with a determined light in his eyes.

[I will definitely defeat you, Hiden Manren. ]

postscript

When I opened the shoe cabinet, there was a pile of garbage inside, including leftover potato chips, chewed gum, and rotten banana peels. There were also a lot of insulting words written on the door with a marker, such as "dead idol otaku", "idol otaku is so disgusting", and there were even a lot of sharp stones stuffed into the shoes.

This is the scenery of Zhenlian Shoe Cabinet today.

"These people are too much!" Shiori became angry when he saw the terrible state of Manren's shoe cabinet. This was pure school bullying.

However, compared to the angry Shiori, Shinren, the victim of bullying, looked nonchalant. She had no expression and didn't say anything. She just picked up a rag and started cleaning the messy shoe cabinet.

After all, at the Ten'ou Festival music competition, Shiori announced to all the teachers and students of the ten participating schools that Shinrei was an idol otaku. Although it is not known whether it is true or not, those who hate Shinrei will naturally not miss this opportunity to label Shinrei and bully her. Shinrei has long been mentally prepared for such a thing to happen.

However, it is not quite appropriate to characterize this kind of thing as bullying. After all, bullying is essentially bullying the weak, and Zhenlian herself does not seem to meet this condition.

Because although Zhenlian did not show any emotional fluctuations on the surface, she was already prepared to teach those ignorant guys a lesson in her heart.

However, compared to these things that are not very public, it is better to attend the summary activities of the Tenyou Festival, which is the after-night festival, as soon as possible.

Today is September 25th, Monday. It has been one day since the attack and defense of DEM. The previous riot caused by the nine beautiful angels was also covered up by Ratatosk using the ridiculous reason of hallucinogen leakage.

Alan of DEM was rescued by Xun and has now returned to the British headquarters; Kurumi disappeared after that battle, and no one knows what she meant by "having something to do with DEN"; Rai escaped in the chaos when Shiori was dealing with Tohka the Reverse, and now he is probably back to Thunder of Destruction. The key that absorbed part of the spiritual power of the Sword of the End is really worrying; Manren also tried to see if she could rub out the key and the Cyclone Riser with her bare hands again, but ended in failure.

But even if I want to know now, I have no idea where to start. So I should put all this behind me for now and enjoy the last carnival of Tianyang Festival.

When I came to the center stage, I saw Yakuya and Yui.

"Kukuku, he recovered in just one day. He is indeed the man I have chosen."

"Question, isn't Tohka here?"

Hearing Yui's question, Shiori replied: "It seems that there are a lot of necessary inspections after the reversal, so I may not be able to come."

"I didn't expect that I'd be in so much trouble after being shot." Zhenlian said nonchalantly while leaning against the fence, "It seems that after I get fatally wounded, I have to try my best to look fine, and then die in an empty alley. Hahaha..."

Although he knew that Shinren was joking, Shiori felt uncomfortable with the black humor of his own death.

"And look! This is the VIP badge that Meijiu gave me. With it, I can go backstage to give flowers after the performance. Aren't you envious?"

"Ohhh! That's amazing! Can I touch it?"

"no--!"

"Why can't you use anything other than transformation tools? You stingy bastard!"

Amid the quarrel between Manre and Yakuya, the final performance of the late night festival, Miku's solo, began.

Miku, dressed in spirit attire, appeared on the stage and sang a passionate song with her charming voice.

As usual, Mijiu's performance was still so perfect. After the solo, the audience immediately broke into thunderous applause.

A few minutes later

"Mare-kun, what are you wearing..."

Arriving at the door of the lounge, Shiori looked up and down at Manren's outfit - she was wearing a headband with "Miku" printed on it, holding a cheering stick in her hand, and her backpack was filled with a lot of Miku peripherals.

"Oh, you mean this outfit? After all, I promised to be her die-hard fan. Since I'm a fan, I try to dress like Miku's solo promoter. What's wrong? Don't I look like her?"

Not like? Obviously too much like. If she hadn't shown her VIP badge, Zhenlian would have been stopped as a sasaeng fan. To some extent, Zhenlian was completely unaware of these things.

"It's nothing... As long as you are happy, Zhenlian-kun..."

Knocked on the lounge door.

"Please come in."

After opening the door...

"You guys are finally here! Shiori-chan! Darling!"

"Darling?" Zhenlian tilted her head, and after confirming that there was no one else around, she pointed at herself with some confusion, "You're not talking about me, are you?"

"Of course! A darling is a darling!"

Although in psychology it only takes one key to cause a person's personality or values ​​to change drastically overnight, seeing the girl who was thinking about how to kill her before calling her "darling" so enthusiastically, Zhenlian felt more or less complicated.

"Pfft..." Looking at Zhenlian's dazed look, Shizhi felt that this boy was a little cute, so he leaned close to Zhenlian's ear and called out softly as if mischievously, "Darling~"

"Cough cough cough... Shiori, you've learned bad things." Manren's face turned slightly red, and she began to cough to cover up her embarrassment.

Although comic plots like idols having a crush on themselves are very enviable, it is better for comic plots to appear in comics after all. The difference in status between the two will inevitably cause a lot of trouble. I still have some idea of ​​how annoying those paparazzi who want to turn the private lives of celebrities upside down are.

After all, it is necessary to lower the favorability.

"Um, Miku. I want to confess something to you." Manren said suddenly.

"What's the matter, Darling?"

"Actually, Mayaya is me, a man dressed as a woman." After saying this, Mayan closed her eyes, mentally preparing herself to be beaten by Miku.
