The story we started

[Buzz—buzz—buzz—]

[The moment he entered the tunnel, as he moved his mind, a silver belt appeared around his waist with a buzzing sound.]

[What Makishima Saori said is correct. Although each time he uses the belt to transform, the erosion and assimilation of his body nerves will be accelerated, but at the same time, as the number of transformations increases and time passes, his ability will also increase. Now, as long as he wants, he can call out the belt with just his mind, even without making the initial transformation movements. ]

【And Zaimokuza didn't tell Kousaka Kyousuke one thing. With each battle, he could feel some power gradually awakening in his body. This feeling became clearer and clearer. This time, when the belt appeared, the cool feeling that roamed throughout his body made him more certain of this.】

[In this battle, he may be able to gain new power! ]

【“henshin!”】

[Looking at the light approaching in front of him, Zaimokuza shouted, and the spirit stone on his waist glowed red, and then turned blue in an instant, and changed back in the next instant.]

[Triangle Chaser 2000 rushed out of the tunnel exit, and the scarlet Kuuga reappeared in the world, with the golden horns on his head reflecting a light more brilliant than the sun.]

[Zaimokuza turned the code that Kousaka Kyousuke had told him earlier on the code dial on the seat. After entering the code, the body of the Triangle Chaser underwent a surprising change. The black body instantly changed to a silver and red background, and the front of the car turned golden, and the speed also increased suddenly.]

[And on the left side of the car body that Zaimokuza couldn't see, a black totem appeared on the car body. This totem was exactly the same as the mark that appeared on No. 1 and No. 5 when he kicked them with his right foot. There was also a faint flame on the surface of the totem. ]

[Zaimokuza drove the Triangle Chaser 2000, which had a completely changed appearance, and drove towards the distant Suginami District like a red whirlwind! ]

23.Who are you? Two in one

[Today's Tokyo is as beautiful as ever, especially the Suginami district, which is simply bustling with people, deafening, extremely lively and popular. 199txt.com]

[After all, when everyone is screaming and running away, it is really hard not to be deafening and lively, stampedes are constantly happening, and everyone is trying to escape as far as possible. ]

[On the scrolling screen of the building, in the Easter egg of the annual movie "The Recitation Lesson of the Imperial Master and the Prince", the Imperial Master Long Tang Shimen faced the indignant rebels and told everyone with a righteous face that those who dared to slander the colonel and the prince would be met with the thundering iron fist of justice! Even if they are ministers who have made contributions to the country! ? I firmly believe that we, the royal relatives, are the right way and justice. Why should we, who are born with luxurious clothes and delicious food, steal other people's property! This is a fabricated accusation! It is pure slander! ]

[His words were passionate and inspiring, his expression was like a lion and tiger with eyes wide open, his face as wrinkled as an old tree had never been so oppressive, just like an old general on the stage, with countless military flags behind him that could command the world's armies and ghosts, and he looked like the last Japanese prime minister holding a microphone and giving a speech on the street, his figure under the blazing sun was like a pillar reaching to heaven, both were so brave and fearless, a person with a clear conscience is not afraid of his own shadow, and he is the master of all armies! ]

[Below this big screen, bloody murders are happening one after another. Many figures are waving their hands helplessly and jumping down from tall buildings, just like the Americans who jumped down from the buildings back then. Despair and fear completely dominate their hearts before they hit the ground, until they fall into the deepest part of hell and their lives are completely cut off.]

【"ah!!!"】

[A shrill scream aroused the pigeons sitting on the edge of the roof, and a dark shadow with a fluttering scarf grabbed a slender figure and jumped onto the tall building.]

【“Mio-chan!”】

[“Mio! Let her go!”]

【Three girls stood at the bottom of the tall building and watched in horror as their friend was grabbed by the collar and taken away by the monster. The girl with long beige hair covered her mouth and watched in horror with tears in her eyes. The girl with short brown hair hurriedly took out her cell phone to call the police, but her cell phone accidentally fell to the ground and she immediately removed the problem after picking it up. The remaining girl with a hairband watched the monster that took away her best friend in horror and anger.】

[“You monster with a locust face! Let her go! If you have the guts, come down and challenge me in a duel! No, that’s not right! Don’t let go!”]

[Taizhong Ritsu, who was extremely worried about his friend's safety, yelled at the badu on the rooftop in a rage, and then he realized what he had said halfway through and immediately refuted his previous words in panic.]

[“Wow, you didn’t run away when you saw me?”]

[baduu looked at the three people downstairs in surprise, then looked down at the trembling black straight-haired girl in his arms and said.]

[“Rindo is quite brave now~ Have they always been this brave?”]

【Why did it become like this? 】

[Looking at the three friends who were almost like dots in her field of vision, Akiyama Mio's originally fair face turned even paler, almost dead. Her slender legs in canvas sneakers and black socks couldn't stop shaking, and the tears in her eyes were almost about to flow out.]

[It happened to be a holiday today, and it was also her birthday, so except for the juniors who couldn't come because they had to make up for their lessons, everyone in the light music club came to this city, which is also the number one in Japan and Asia, to relax. Her friend even ordered a cake, and they were going to find a restaurant to celebrate her birthday together in the evening.]

[Today is both a holiday and my birthday. Two happy things happen at the same time. These two joys bring more joy to everyone. What I get is a happy time like a dream...]

【But why did it become like this? 】

[Being kidnapped by a sudden monster only happens in movie plots, and in Hollywood superhero movies. In Japan, which has always been known as the "grave of superheroes", this kind of plot is not popular at all. This kind of plot should not appear in reality, because there are no such superheroes in reality! ]

[“Woo!”]

[A cold finger suddenly lifted her chin, and Akiyama Mio shuddered all over. She subconsciously wanted to lower her head, but the finger against her chin slowly lifted her head. The power from the finger made it impossible for her to resist. A face with strange black lines like tear marks appeared in her tearful eyes. Looking at that strange face that had nothing to do with humans, her petite and slender body trembled uncontrollably.]

[“Hmm? You’re a pretty good-looking Linduo~”]

[baduu looked at Akiyama Mio, who was locked in its arms with one hand, with great interest. His fingers brushed over the girl's delicate face and slender neck curve, feeling the cold touch on her face and neck. Endless fear wrapped around her body like a rope, and tears that had been accumulating for a long time flowed down her face. Her body stiffened for a while, like a frog entangled by a poisonous snake. Every inch of skin that the other party's fingers brushed over had her hair standing up, and goose bumps crawled all over her body. ]

[“It’s a pity to kill you like this. Your companions seem to want to take you back.”]

【“Stop… Stop…!”】

[Akiyama Mio had no idea what the monster in front of her was saying, but she intuitively felt that it was not a good thing. Even though she was already paralyzed by fear, she still trembled as she spoke her prayer. With that pale and beautiful face and such a pitiful expression, it was estimated that not many men with normal sexual orientation would refuse her request.]

[A beauty's tears are so touching that even a straight man will become soft as a finger. ]

[——But unfortunately, the other party was never a human being, but a complete monster. ]

[“Then I will return you to them.”]

[baduu said, reaching out and gently pushing Akiyama Mio's shoulder, pushing her body backwards.]

[“If you want to hate someone, then hate that Kuuga came too late.”]

【"--well?"】

[The girl felt the emptiness behind her, and looked at the figure of Badou, which was shrinking rapidly in her sight. Her eyes widened slightly, and her brain failed to react to the action of the monster in front of her, and she subconsciously made a puzzled sound.]

[Time seemed to stand still at this moment. The screams of her friends below were stretched infinitely in her ears. Her black hair fluttered in front of her eyes. Looking at the monster that was so close yet seemed so close, the black pupils of Mio Akiyama's eyes slowly shrank.]

[She clearly saw that the right corner of the mouth of that terrifying face, which was as stiff as a statue, was slightly raised at this moment, revealing an expression similar to the "smile" on a human face.]

【And that clear farewell. 】

【——"さよなら～(Farewell～)"]

[This time she understood clearly what the other person said, not missing a word]

【But she would rather not have understood. 】

[The tears in her eyes floated in the air under the potential energy, and under the sunlight, they were like crystal clear pearls. Akiyama Mio fell to the ground with her back to the ground like a broken doll.]

【"——Mio!!!"】

[Watching her best friend being gently pushed back from the roof by the monster, Tianzhong Ritsu's heart almost stopped beating, and she shouted with tears in her eyes.]

[Her good friend, Kotobuki Tsumugi, had covered her mouth with both hands and let out a suppressed scream, looking at Akiyama Mio in fear as she was about to fall, while Hirasawa Yui opened her eyes wide, tears slowly overflowing from those eyes that never shed tears.]

[How tall is a twenty-story building? ]

[It’s not that high actually. According to the average floor height in Japan, which is about 2800-3000 mm, it’s only about two to three meters. Multiply that by twenty and you get sixty meters, which is only ten meters longer than a fifty-meter run.]

【The world record for the 5-meter dash is 56 seconds. 】

[How long does it take for a person to jump from the 20th floor to the first floor? ]

[The answer is that it only takes about four seconds. Under the acceleration of gravity, anyone can easily break this world record, which is ten meters longer than the 50-meter dash. In the past 100 years, this record has been broken by people all the time, even if you are not a human.]

[——Then the question is, there are so many people who have broken this record, and there is irrefutable evidence, but why has this record never been included in the Guinness Book of World Records? ]

[It’s very simple. This record has never belonged to a living person, nor does it record how fast you are. The real meaning of this record is how long it takes a person to reach heaven from the human world.]

[At this height and speed, when a person falls to the ground, the huge impact force will completely shatter the organs in the chest and abdomen, and about 90% of the bones in the body will be broken. The head and neck will be twisted, the limbs will be broken, and the back or stomach that hits the ground will be smashed into a pile of rotten meat. The eyeballs will even pop out of the eye sockets under the impact force. The flesh and blood will "pop" like fireworks and spread out in all directions. The broken flesh and blood will form an irregular circle around about 5 meters. The person will die on the spot before he can even feel the pain. When the funeral home car comes to take the body away, the scene can only be described by hints or metaphors such as "packing", and cannot be described by declarative words such as "carrying away". ]

[People's perception of time is a subjective psychological experience. The definition of speed is different for everyone. For an ordinary person, the time it takes to turn a car is only one or two seconds in subjective feeling. But for a top racing driver, when he drives through a key corner for overtaking in a race, this short time can even be stretched to nearly ten seconds in feeling.]

[That is to say, if the brain works fast enough, then one second can be regarded as ten seconds.]

[And Akiyama Mio now feels that her brain is working at a speed never seen before since she was born, like a derailed and out-of-control Shinkansen, rushing towards a realm unknown to anyone.]

[The wind has never flowed so slowly before. The ears can clearly hear the whistling wind being stretched into strange moans. Each strand of hair floating forward reflects a certain strange rhythm and pace. The exclamations of friends gradually disappear in the silent world, until finally all sounds leave her world. The girl seems to be sealed in a different dimension isolated from reality. ]

[During this short yet extremely long time, Akiyama Mio thought of many things. Countless faces appeared in front of her eyes, including family, friends, teachers, classmates... Countless memories poured out in her mind, and then disappeared in a flash.]

【In the end, only two short sentences remained in her heart.】

[——Am I going to die? ]

[——I haven’t eaten my birthday cake yet.]

[With unspeakable regret, the girl's fragile figure fell from the sky closest to heaven to the deepest part of hell. ]

[Buzz——!!!]

[The roar of the engine, like a wild beast, broke the silence of the world and pulled Akiyama Mio's thoughts back to reality from the other-dimensional world. She "slowly" turned her head and saw a silver-red whirlwind rushing towards here from afar at a high speed. It arrived here in a flash before anyone could react. The wind and waves blew up the skirts and hair of the people below, attracting everyone's attention.]

[“Taku!”]

[A powerful roar sounded, and a red figure leaped up from the whirlwind, leaping high towards the girl falling from the sky.]

[Akiyama Mio only saw a shadow approaching her at a very fast speed. The next moment, she felt herself falling into a strong embrace. An arm wrapped in red armor and golden wrist guards hugged her waist, carrying a powerful force and carrying Akiyama Mio from the fall to the wall of the building.]

[It was as if someone had pulled the brake valve, forcibly changing the ending of the girl's descent into hell. ]

[The five black fingers opened and pierced into the wall. The exterior wall of the building made of reinforced concrete was like smooth cream in front of this palm. The concrete wall fragments broke and splashed between the five fingers. A huge bumpy feeling came, causing Akiyama Mio to subconsciously close her eyes. ]

[“Gu——!”]

【Zaimokuza held Akiyama Mio in his arms with his right hand, and stabbed the outer wall of the building with his left hand. The weight and gravity of the two dragged his body downwards. He gritted his teeth and used his hands as brakes to reduce the kinetic energy of the fall. He felt as if there were pieces of blunt knives scraping across his palms. He also turned his body sideways and landed almost with his back to the wall to avoid the flying gravel from hurting the girl in his arms.】

[The ground is approaching at a very high speed in this crude and primitive artificial landing method. Feeling that the potential energy has been almost reduced, Zaimokuza extends his left hand to hug Akiyama Mio, who is curled up in fear, and pushes his feet against the wall to rush forward.]

[He turned around in mid-air, with his back facing down and the girl in his arms facing upwards. The next moment, a strong impact and scraping sensation came from behind. He used himself as a "skateboard" and took Akiyama Mio on the ground for nearly 20 meters.]

【Sizzle! 】

[At the moment Zaimokuza jumped up, the Triangle Chaser 2000, which had lost his control, had already fallen down. Due to its extremely fast speed, the side of the entire vehicle body spun against the ground and rubbed a long distance. Dazzling sparks flew from the body rubbing against the ground until the entire motorcycle rushed into a cafe at the end of the road. The rotating body of the motorcycle smashed the glass cabinet of the cafe and sank into it. The glass fragments scattered around with the screams of the owner.]

【Zaimokuza now felt a burning pain in his back and left palm. If his face didn't allow him to make any facial expressions, he would have wanted to grimace.】

[But when he saw the girl in his arms still closing her eyes in fear, he still endured the pain and hugged her to stand up.]

[“… Ugh.”]

[With her eyes tightly closed, Mio Akiyama waited for a long time but did not feel the expected impact and pain of falling from the building. Her feet also felt the ground again. She was puzzled and tremblingly opened her tearful eyes. ]

[What caught her eyes were a pair of red compound eyes. This face, which was also different from that of a human, made Akiyama Mio subconsciously hold her breath, and her body trembled with fear.]

[But the next move made by this "monster" was completely beyond her imagination. ]

"Are you okay?"

[Listening to the words coming out of the other party's silver mouthpiece, Akiyama Mio suddenly opened her black eyes wide. ]

【"well?"】

[As she made a confused sound, Zaimokuza loosened his arms that were tightly around her waist and took a few steps back.]

【“You… why…?”】

【“——Mio!”】

[When Akiyama Mio was moved by Zaimokuza's human language and gesture of goodwill, an excited shout was heard. When Akiyama Mio turned around, she was hugged tightly by Tianzhong Ritsu who rushed over. The tomboy who was always fearless hugged her friend's slender waist tightly, feeling relieved that she had regained what she had lost, and buried her head in Akiyama Mio's shoulder and cried bitterly.]

[“You idiot! You know how worried I am! How am I going to explain to my aunt if you die?”]

【“Xiaolu… woo!”】

[Akiyama Mio felt the familiar warmth coming from her friend's embrace. When her hands touched Tianzhong Ritsu's back, the fear and relief of escaping death surged from her heart. The surging emotions were like an erupting volcano. Her eyes immediately became moist under the drive of this emotion. She also hugged her friend tightly and sobbed softly.]

[“I’m sorry! I’m so sorry!!!”]

[Akiyama Mio hugged her friend and said sorry repeatedly with tears on her face. Although she herself didn't know why she said it, the girl who had been defeated by fear before was completely unable to think and only knew to express her apology. ]

【"Mio-chan!"】

[Hirazawa Yui and Kotobuki Tsumugi, who were a few steps behind Tianzhong Ritsu, also caught up. They opened their arms and hugged the two who were originally hugging. The four girls hugged their friends and cried loudly together. ]

【"call……"】

【Looking at the girl who was saved by him and was safe except for being frightened, Zaimokuza breathed a sigh of relief. This breath immediately woke up the four girls who were hugging each other and crying. They were immersed in their previous emotions and realized that there was a "weird person" who was not human here. 】

[“Mio, Mio! Run! Stay away from this monster!”]

【Looking at the transformed Zaimokuza, Tianzhong Ritsu grabbed Akiyama Mio's wrist and tried to drag her away to escape. His eyes, still filled with tears, were filled with nervousness.】

[“Xiao Lu, wait a moment!”]

【“Mio!?”】

[To Tianzhong Ritsu's surprise, Akiyama Mio broke free from his hand that was holding her wrist, and turned around to look at the "weird guy" not far away at the opposite side after hearing his own surprised voice. ]

[Looking at Zaimokuza transforming into Kuuga, the timid Akiyama Mio subconsciously wanted to turn around and run away with her friends. ]

【But what just happened and what the other person said came to her mind. She swallowed her saliva and asked with some trembling.】

【“Just now! You—did you want to save me?”】

【“——”】

[Zaimokuza looked at the black-haired girl in front of him with some surprise. She didn't run away immediately. When he wanted to respond, a sound from above made his eyes sharp. The four people opposite him clearly felt that the atmosphere around the "weird person" in front of them became solemn and murderous.]
