How did I become famous?

Chapter 345 Masked Girl!

The next day was the Japanese New Year.

Well, in the past they wanted to learn from the West, so they set all the festivals they learned from China on the Gregorian calendar.

Then, something dramatic happened.

They launched the "March War" against China.

So now we have this result.

That is, Japan has many more festivals than China.

Besides traditional festivals, they also celebrate many Western holidays.

What's even more remarkable is that many of the festivals they learned from China are celebrated twice.

For example, on the evening of January 1st, Fang Bie and his group strolled around a certain celebration here.

Today is New Year's Day in China, and also the Gregorian New Year in Japan.

Similarly, it was also the young lady's birthday.

The streets were bustling with people, all dressed in their traditional ethnic costumes.

There are many more yukatas from Japan than from China.

Han, Tang, Song, and Ming dynasties.

Just like the traditional clothing of Japan has been evolving and improving, basically everyone wears modified styles from these four dynasties.

Many domestic ethnic minorities who come to visit also wear their traditional costumes.

The Yao, Miao, Tibetan, Dai, Manchu, and so on.

Fang Bie, dressed in a dark robe, held hands with Su Mulin; neither of them wore rings on their fingers.

The two rings were a bit too big, so they planned to go back and have them resized.

That being said, Fang Bie was actually quite angry about what happened yesterday.

But it was only for a short while; he stopped being angry afterward.

That was exactly what he wanted to do, but he was outmaneuvered.

Put yourself in his shoes. If his plan had worked, wouldn't the young lady have reacted the same way he did?

Thinking about it that way, he stopped being angry.

You can't be too hypocritical.

However, although the New Year's atmosphere here is very strong today, it feels like something is missing.

What's missing?

"Mom! I want to see the same fireworks as yesterday!"

A little child is crying and fussing with his mother nearby.

By the way, they both spoke Mandarin.

They are probably Chinese tourists or people who have settled here.

Fang Bie then realized what was happening.

Oh right, there are no fireworks at the Japanese New Year celebration!

He looked at a woman with long, straight black hair.

Because of their height difference, the two were almost eye-to-eye.

"What's wrong?"

She tossed her long, straight black hair aside, her eyes filled with confusion.

"fine."

Fang Bie looked up at the bustling area ahead: "What's going on over there?"

"It's probably cosplay."

Wu Kai added a comment.

Of course, Yoshikage Kira and the others didn't come today.

It was the Japanese New Year, after all, and they had all gone home to celebrate.

And there's something they haven't told Fang yet.

That is, Yoshikage Kira had an ambition; he was not content to be just an actor.

His ultimate dream is to become a film director!

Over the past year or two, he believes he has learned a lot from Fang Bie.

He felt that if he had Nie Fang and his group of super experts by his side, he could achieve 20% of Director Fang's level of success!

Well, actually he felt he was a little too arrogant.

However, if he could achieve even 10% of Director Fang's level, he felt he could do whatever he wanted in Japan.

Their first script has already taken shape.

That's right, the team he found was the same group of people as Shinichi Kudo, Kindaichi, and Light Yagami.

Conan Edogawa?

A little kid like him should just go to school.

For his first script, he planned to make a mystery/suspense film that was very popular in Japan.

The inspiration came from Fang Bie's routine and anti-routine events this time.

The story is set against the backdrop of a murder in a mountain lodge during a snowstorm.

Then the killer will not be identified.

Or rather, the murderer is the detective.

The film's perspective will then focus on this detective.

However, he will not tell the audience that he is the murderer.

Because there are two murderers involved.

Moreover, it's not until the very end of the film, after the murderer has been caught, that they reveal a few details to confuse the audience.

This leaves the audience unsure of who the real killer is.

This script is too complicated to explain in a short time.

However, the script was co-written by Yoshikage Kira, Shinichi Kazuma, his relative Conan Edogawa, and others such as Kindaichi and Light Yagami.

This demonstrates just how complex the movie's plot is.

However, none of these matters are currently relevant to Fang Bie.

He was now speechless, staring at the eight or nine-year-old girl in front of him, dressed in a sailor uniform and wearing a mask, striking a pose.

The little girl first placed her right fist on her waist, and then raised her left fist with her arm at a 90-degree angle.

Then place your left hand on your lower abdomen, raise your right hand high with your fingers naturally spread, and slowly lower it.

Then, he clenched his right fist and swung it to the right, moved his left hand horizontally in front of his body, clenched his fist, and raised his arm vertically, while bringing his right fist to his waist.

"Henshin!"

The little girl shouted in a childish voice, and then sparks began to appear from the eyes of the mask on her face.

After striking a pose, the little girl shouted, "I am the child of the sun! I will protect all living things in the world!"

"Kamen Rider BLACK RX!!!"

Fang Bie: "."

Liu Mang asked in a low voice, "Old Fang, what does that 'very good' that the little girl said mean?"

This guy doesn't understand Japanese.

To be honest, Fang Bie doesn't really understand either.

However, he still understood that "it's very good".

And that line of dialogue later on...

So he explained, "It's probably some kind of game."

When I yell "Great!", you'll be killed by me.

"Hahaha! Isn't this Fang Biesang!"

A hearty laugh came from behind.

Fang Bie turned around and saw a middle-aged man with ramen-noodle hair wearing glasses.

"Mr. Onodera?"

This person is someone I don't know.

It was Shotaro Onodera, whom I had met once before.

Of course, he also has a pen name—Ishinomori Shotaro.

Yes, that's the root of all evil that led to the creation of Kamen Rider.

It looks like he'll be here.

"Fang-kun! What do you think of the masked girl I made, inspired by you?"

Shotaro Ishinomori said smugly, "A pure middle school girl, whose body was modified for various reasons, became a masked cyborg, the Masked Girl, to fight against the enemy!"

Ultimately, the idea he advocated was that "enemies and foes share the same origin."

The enemy and the Kamen Rider share the same source of power.

What determines people's behavior is not their birth, but the choices they make afterwards!

The masked girl is destined to fight while bearing the malice of humanity!

But they will still protect humanity and nature!

This is their cruel yet magnificent destiny!

Fang Bie: "."

"Onodera-san, I never thought you'd actually pull it off."

"Oh my, this is the inspiration I got from reading your League of Legends trilogy, Fang-kun!" Ishinomori Shotaro warmly shook hands with Fang Bie. "However, there's one thing I'm not too satisfied with. Why did you choose a man to play Kamen Rider DECADE?"

Wouldn't that eliminate the sense of destiny and magnificence surrounding the masked girls?

Fang was speechless.

Because the character is right there, who else can Kamen Rider cast if he doesn't get him to act?

But why is it that only teenage girls can express this feeling?

Is it true that beautiful girls bear a heavy price, their beauty only lasting a fleeting moment? Is this what the Japanese consider beauty?

Japanese people are truly perverted.

"Fang-kun! You've come at the right time!" Ishinomori Shotaro pulled Fang Bie away. "I have a new project, but it's not finished yet! I need your help!"

After all, there are already three seasons of "Masked Girl" so far.

He plans to make a theatrical version.

And to be honest, he's not too satisfied with the current state of the Masked Girl.

In his view, the masked girl was a cyborg with a modified body.

The human girl who merged with the locusts is a messenger of nature!

However, in reality, the Kamen Rider series so far has been unable to shake off the hero character element. The so-called cyborgs are nothing more than wearing helmets and suits, which is far from the Kamen Rider series that Ishinomori Shotaro truly expected.

The deeper meaning, sadness, and sense of destiny did not achieve the effect he desired.

And now, the source of this inspiration—Fang Bie—is right here!

He definitely needs to learn from him!

After all, he always puts those words at the beginning of every "Masked Girl" series:

"Original: Fang Farewell"

My cat has a bladder problem, and his cries are making me very anxious.

It's only two years old and already has so many illnesses; will it even live to be ten?

But what can we do? Since we decided to raise it, we have to take good care of it.

So today I took the cat to the vet. They inserted a catheter, gave him medication, and gave him an injection.

The doctor said it was blocked by a stone and there was also inflammation.

Sigh, I have to wear it to get my shot tomorrow.

And myself.

I don't need to wear a neck brace anymore, but the doctor said I need to exercise my neck muscles.

Because the neck, which supports the head, cannot be too thin, otherwise it will put a lot of pressure on the cervical spine.

So, how should I exercise my neck?
