I'm really just human

Unfortunately, the police seemed to be very dissatisfied with them. They put on a stern face and did not allow them to enter the scene. They even looked like they were about to take action.

"It's you reporters again!"

"Are you still planning on causing trouble for us?"

"This is not a case you can interfere with! We police will investigate it ourselves!"

Shinji Shirodo shrank his neck under the ferocious gaze of the police.

very scary……

"We'll be leaving soon."

Xia Chuan didn't care about the police's attitude, he just looked inside the room following the sound of the girl's crying.

The depressed figure of the man holding his daughter could be seen clearly through the crack in the door.

"Keep investigating, otherwise tragedies like this will continue to happen."

The old detective at the scene changed his expression slightly, vaguely feeling that he was not facing a reporter, but the police: "You guy..."

After leaving the apartment, Shiroto Shinji gave Natsukawa a thumbs up in admiration: "As expected of a senior, you intimidated them in an instant. Could it be that you were a policeman before?"

"Why are there so many questions? I'll leave the manuscript to you to write this time."

"Ah? How do I write it?"

"Whatever you want, just don't write about me."

Xia Chuan was still thinking about the crying little girl.

He has always had complicated feelings about these knights' time and space. No matter how he treats them as copies, what he is facing are ultimately living lives.

……

"Haha, I'm a knight too!"

"Is this the Mirror World Knight System? If I can bring it back..."

"I don't want to be a knight, let me go back, damn it!"

The whole of Tokyo was in chaos on this day, and many travelers from this world who accidentally broke into the world of knights were targeted by Shirou Kanzaki.

Except for honest and hidden people like Takahashi Kazumi, a large number of time travelers thought they had hit the jackpot and entered the legendary knight test space. Under the temptation of Kanzaki Shirou, they fought each other for the card box.

"Ha ha!"

"I won!"

In a dark corner, a bespectacled office worker was hammering madly with a stone, leaving a bloody corpse. He then gasped and left the flower bed, not even bothering to wipe the blood off his face, and excitedly picked up the initial card set.

However, before he could take a closer look, a tiger monster suddenly jumped out of the mirror behind him, bit his neck and dragged him into the mirror world.

"Roar!"

"what--!"

The screams spread in the night, and passers-by retreated, but some people took the initiative to approach.

Shirou Kanzaki stood in the mirror world in a windbreaker, his expression unmoved, quietly watching the card box being fought over.

Compared with the knights he chose, these people who suddenly appeared were also qualified to be knights, but each one of them was too bad.

I don’t know why, many people start out looking like desperate criminals who don’t care about life or death, but become like a different person when they are dying.

I feel fear only when I am dying...

It doesn't make sense, reality is not a game.

After watching the chaotic fight for a while, Kanzaki Shirou turned around and disappeared into the mirror.

In any case, he was happy to see this kind of fight.

This will make it easier to advance the knight battle. Only by fighting can the strongest knight be selected in the end to collect the life energy obtained by the opponent.

……

ORE Daily.

Two days passed, and the series of bizarre events made everyone look unhappy.

Disappearance, murder...all happened at the same time.

"How strange."

President Okubo touched his chin and asked Natsukawa and Shirodo Shinji.

"Have you heard about it? There seems to be a lot of discussion about the urban rumor about Kamen Rider on the Internet recently. It says that those missing people were eaten by monsters, and that Kamen Rider fought monsters and so on."

"I've heard a little bit."

Shinji Shirodo, who was thinking hard about writing a manuscript, subconsciously looked at Natsukawa who was drinking tea.

Just then, Takahashi Kazumi returned to the office with a pair of letters: "Whose letter is this? It says it's for Longqi..."

"Let me see!"

Director Shinji Shirodo breathed a sigh of relief and quickly left his seat to get the letter. After opening it, he found that there was not much content inside, only a meeting address.

I looked at the envelope again in confusion. Apart from the signature "Shiro Kanzaki", there was not even a return address.

"What does this mean?"

Shinji Shiroto hesitated and looked at Natsukawa.

"senior……"

"No." Xia Chuan also saw the address in the letter, but he was not interested.

Knowing Kanzaki Shirou's lies, he certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to participate in the knight battle.

Now he just wants to find the core mirror.

Regardless of whether this mirror world of time and space can be completely closed, at least the invasion crisis of this world can be solved.

"But……"

Shinji Shirodo looked at Okubo and the others who were busy with their own things, and whispered to Natsukawa.

"This is a good opportunity to investigate the truth, Senior. Maybe we can meet other knights."

"I have more important things to do." Xia Chuan still shook his head.

Finding the location of the core mirror was also a headache, so he had no time to play the Knight Wars game.

"Then can I go in your place, senior?" Shiroto Shinji gritted his teeth and asked with determination and anticipation.

"You are too curious."

“So I became a reporter.”

"whatever."

Natsukawa did not stop Shinji Shiroto.

Shinji Kido is no longer a dragon rider now, so even if he goes, he will not be able to participate in the battle and there will be no danger.

It would be nice to see the true colors of other knights.

"Great!" Shiroto Shinji was so excited that he almost shouted out loud. Finally, he clenched his fist in frustration and said, "I will publish the report with you, senior! It will definitely make the headlines!"

"as long as you are happy."

Natsukawa's eyes fell on the signature of Kanzaki Shirou on the envelope.

If you want to find the core mirror, you probably have to start with this person.

In the world of "Dragon Knight", it is impossible to bypass Shirou Kanzaki.

Difficult to handle.

but……

Looking at Shinji Shirodo who was full of anticipation, Natsukawa's expression also changed slightly.

This time it should be Kanzaki Shirou who is trying to gather the knights to fight.

Whatever the reason, Kanzaki Shiro himself will definitely be there.

Chapter 136 This Knight is Different

2023-07-31

Somewhere in a hotel underground parking lot.

Shinji Shirodo left the newspaper office on the pretext of going out for an interview, and waited early at the meeting place agreed upon in the letter. However, looking at the empty scene, he couldn't help but scratch his hair in confusion.

It seems that there is no specific time.

"Are you the Dragon Rider?"

A young man in his 20s walked out from the corner, glanced at the letter in Shinji Shirodo's hand and asked.

"You showed up like this, are you unprepared or are you really confident? Aren't you worried about being killed?"

"What do you mean?" Shiroto Shinji's heart tightened for no reason, "Who are you? Kamen Rider?"

"I'm an employee of this parking lot," the young man looked at Shiroto Shinji again, "Do you really not know or are you pretending not to know? This place has become our battlefield. There is only one knight who can survive to the end."

"battlefield?"

Shinji Shirodo remembered Natsukawa's reminder and always felt that something was wrong, as if he had misunderstood something.

It sounds like the knights will also fight each other, rather than specifically destroying monsters.

"Well, I'm not a knight, and..."

"what?"

The young man took a step closer to Shinji Shirodo with doubt, but the next moment his face changed drastically and he stepped back, facing the reflective mirror of a car and quickly took out the card holder.

"Transform!"

The V-belt buckle appeared, and after being inserted into the card holder, a knight with gazelle features suddenly appeared in front of Shinji Kido.

"Sure enough, there are other knights!" Shiroto Shinji asked with wide eyes, "What do you mean by battlefield? What do you mean by surviving to the end? You..."

"You're really not a knight?"

Gazelle Knight looked at Shinji Kido with an idiotic look, not sure if Kido was pretending to be stupid or really knew nothing.

"How did that letter end up in your hands?"

"This is Senior..."

"Go away!"

The Gazelle Knight's body was tense, and he turned back hastily while growling to block the attack of a white tiger monster, then he struggled and rushed into the body of the car next to him.

Soon, Shinji Kido saw two knights moving and fighting in the mirror world.

The knights really started fighting!

Shinji Shirodo chased after him and leaned against the car window, his face pale as he watched the battle in the mirror world.

He seemed to have wandered into a place where he shouldn't have been.

"Beep beep!"

After discovering that the entire underground parking lot was covered with various knights' figures in the mirror, Shinji Shirodo was in tears. Without thinking too much, he called Natsukawa while hurriedly running towards the exit of the parking lot.

Got to leave here quickly...

"call!"

Before he could get through to Xia Chuan, an orange-yellow monster with crab-like mirrors suddenly blocked the entrance to the parking lot.

On the other side, a rhino-shaped mirror monster approached with heavy steps.

Have we entered a monster's lair?

Seeing that he couldn't contact Natsukawa at all, Shinji Shirodo hurriedly put away his phone and took out a seal card from his pocket.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the two monsters ignored him.
