Kamen Rider: Evolution

"Good morning."

Kagami immediately noticed the styrofoam boxes piled up in front of the door, as tall as a person.

"Kagami, come help me organize the ingredients. This was bought with your salary," Jiang Xia said.

"?"

Kagami picked up the middle part of the box, carefully examined the label on it, and then turned to look at Jiang Xia.

Then we had no choice but to obediently move all the items to the kitchen, one by one.

Being docked pay on her first day of work did not dampen Kagami's good mood at all.

He didn't care about the wages here; working was just an excuse for him to come here.

Of course, he was very willing to have his salary deducted for this, as it was a gift of premium mackerel for Xiao Xi.

Jiang Xia was holding a knife, processing a premium mackerel while talking to Kagami about ZECT.

Soon the doorbell rang, and a girl in white with a baby face pushed the door open and came in.

Good morning... Ugh.

The Heavenly Tree Flower looked at the person cooking in the kitchen, and her originally energetic greeting was completely overshadowed by surprise.

"My Lord, what are you doing here!"

The Heavenly Tree Flower quickly ran to the window and stared straight at Jiang Xia with its bright and clear eyes.

Their eyes, like stars, seemed to be filled with starlight, sparkling with curiosity.

The gemstone that had been hanging around her neck popped out from her collar.

"Long time no see, Tree Flower. You're here to pick up the mackerel, right? Tiandao timed it perfectly." Jiang Xia said with a smile.

"Lord God?"

A hint of doubt flashed in both Kusakabe Hiroshi's and Kagami's eyes; they had never heard of this title before.

"I'm going to call my brother and tell him I won't be coming home for dinner today."

Tendou Tree Flower quickly pulled out her phone and said, "I want to stay at Sal Restaurant for breakfast."

"Kang Dang"

Tendou Souji, who was cooking at home, nearly smashed the teacup that was placed next to him when he heard his sister's words.

"Tree Flower, what did you say?" Tendou Souji's voice trembled slightly as he asked incredulously.

"Brother, I want to stay in this restaurant. I want to eat the dishes made by the God every day," Tiandao Tree Flower said excitedly.

"That's all, bye-bye, brother."

Jiang Xia thought to himself, "That guy Tendou Souji is probably going crazy." Just imagining Tendou Souji's frantic reaction made him want to laugh.

"Wow, it smells so good! My lord, may I have this?"

The Heavenly Tree Flower watched as the mackerel gradually turned a golden-brown color, gleaming with an alluring sheen. It couldn't help but swallow hard, and prayed to Jiang Xia.

"of course."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. It is such a blessing to be able to eat food made by Your Majesty personally."

"Hey, who is this girl? And why is she calling you a god?"

Kagami looked at the Heavenly Tree Flower, then secretly walked up to Jiang Xia and asked in a low voice.

Hiroya Kusakabe also showed a hint of curiosity.

"She's Tiandao's sister. I only performed magic tricks with her." Jiang Xia shrugged. "Xiao Xi, this one is yours."

As he spoke, Jiang Xia handed another breakfast to Xiao Xi, but the taste was slightly different from the one from the Heavenly Tree Flower.

"Hey, Jiang Xia, what about mine? I bought it with my salary."

Kagami forced herself not to look at the tempting breakfast that Kusakabe Hiroshi was holding.

"Next time, please."

"Hey, is anyone else going to eat?" Kagami asked.

"I'm here." Jiang Xia didn't even look up.

"Brother, what brings you here?" Tendou Tree Flower, who was enjoying her meal, asked in surprise as the person walked in.

"Heaven's Way, this is yours."

As someone who dotes on his younger sister, how could he possibly feel comfortable letting Tendoujuka eat out?

And it was during the most important time of the day, breakfast, that they chose to stay outside instead of going home.

This was almost a severe blow to Tendou Souji's confidence; no, he simply couldn't believe such a thing could happen.

Tendou Souji arrived at the fastest speed he had ever traveled, transforming himself.

He had just entered the room when he heard Jiang Xia's words and saw a very tempting-looking, freshly cooked mackerel.

Seeing how happily the tree flowers were eating, Tendou Souji gradually calmed down and said:

"How about you stay here with your brother and cook delicious food for the tree flowers together?"

"Yes, brother, double the happiness!" Heavenly Tree Flower exclaimed excitedly.

"Phew." Tendou Souji exhaled and took away the breakfast that Jiang Xia had prepared for him.

He then gave Jiang Xia a serious look.

This guy actually calculated even this?

Seeing the way Tendou Souji was looking at him, Jiang Xia just smiled.

There's no need to even guess.

At this time, Kagami and Enka had also finished preparing their own.

Or perhaps they were made around the same time, just with different flavors and cooking times.

The five of them began eating breakfast, which was customized according to their own tastes.

Let's enjoy this quiet and brief time together.

As Kusakabe Hiro ate the exceptionally delicious food, she looked at Jiang Xia sitting next to her, and Tendo Souji, who was eating Kagami and taking care of his younger sister. These sights made her eyes involuntarily moisten.

She felt the presence of her family once again.

A warm current welled up in my eyes, and the crystal-clear tears seemed to overflow with emotion and joy from the depths of my heart.

She blinked gently, and the tears left a transparent trail on her cheeks. It wasn't sadness, but rather overwhelming joy.

"It's all over now, it's alright," Jiang Xia gently wiped away the tears from Kusakabe Hiroshi's eyes and comforted him.

This intense emotion infected everyone present.

The families here all have some problems, more or less. Tendou Souji's parents were mimicked, and Kusakabe Hiroshi's parents were killed by a falling meteorite.

Kagami Arata lost her younger brother and prefers to work outside rather than go home.

Jiangxia goes without saying, he's an orphan.

The only slightly better one was the Tendou Tree Flower, because Tendou Souji had always been by her side protecting her, and her grandmother was the only family she had left.

"Brother, we'll always be together, right?" When Tendo Juka saw Kusakabe Hiroshi crying, her eyes also turned red.

"Of course, the tree flower will always be with me."

“Brother, that title really brings back fond memories,” Kagami remarked upon hearing Tendo Juka’s address to Tendo Souji.

"What, you have a younger sister too?"

“No, I have a younger brother.” Kagami looked at this scene and slowly recounted her relationship with her brother.

Chapter 184 Kagami Ryo

After a while, their emotions gradually stabilized, and they began to enjoy the food and the feelings that connected them.

"Thank you for your hospitality today, Jiang Xia."

Before leaving, Tendou Souji said, "I can agree to let Juhan come here alone, but you are responsible for her safety."

"I welcome lovely tree flowers to come and have dinner anytime."

Jiang Xia looked at the Heavenly Tree Flower sitting on the back of the motorcycle and spoke with a smile.

"You rascal," Tendou Souji laughed, "I'm leaving."

Jiang Xia watched their figures disappear into the rising sunlight and chuckled.

Gently push open the restaurant door, and flip over the sign hanging on the door to reveal the words "Open for Business".

"Kagami, go deliver something. Someone called to order food."

During this period, the tradition of ordering food had already begun, but it involved calling the restaurant.

Then it's just delivered by employees; obviously, Kagami is the only one suitable for food delivery here.

"Understood, I'll go right away."

That's how it is when you're working; you can never disobey your boss's orders.

Pack a box, place it on the back of the motorcycle, and secure it. A simple delivery vehicle is now assembled.

"Your salary for this month has already been deducted. If you're late again, you might starve next month."

Jiang Xia reminded Kagami of her current debts, which made Kagami's face stiffen. "No, I won't be late again. I'm leaving."

As Jiang Xia watched Kagami ride away on her bicycle, she murmured, "You'll definitely be late."

As he spoke, a dark shadow swept across the sky, heading straight for Kagami. With Jiang Xia's eyesight, he could clearly see the identity of the dark shadow that swept across the sky: an alien insect.

The insect, known as the Bell-Stinging Cricket, mimics Kagami Akira, the younger brother of Kagami Arata.

"Go and keep an eye on Kagami, make sure he doesn't get hurt," Jiang Xia instructed.

A small black beetle flew through the air, closely following the bell-shaped insect.

"I'm a little curious about your choice, Kagami."
