Kamen Rider: Evolution

"At that time, because he saw that there were knights, he only appeared briefly in front of you and then disappeared."

"It is because you are present in your brother's life that the alien insect chose you as its companion, because your brother also wants to be with you."

"That's why you'll see Kagami Ryo again, even though she's already dead."

However, it seems the Worm's heart has still devoured Kagami Ryo.

"After mimicking, Kagami Ryo still has feelings for you, but those feelings have become distorted."

Because Kagami Ryo is currently thinking like a Worm.

Kagami looked up, her eyes filled with tears. Even though Kagami Ryo was being mimicked, she was still thinking about herself. In any case, Kagami felt very satisfied.

"Alright, wipe away your tears. Those are all things of the past."

Jiang Xia took out a metal ring inlaid with a red gemstone from his pocket and placed it on the table.

He said, "This is a Zerg limiter, or as it's called temporarily. By wearing it on a Zerg's arm, it can suppress the Zerg's mimicry and force them to be locked in human form."

"And its most important function is that it can suppress the consciousness of the Zerg. If you're lucky, it might be possible to bring your younger brother, Kagami Ryo, back."

"Really?" Kagami excitedly took the bracelet in her hand, as if she had grasped a lifeline and wouldn't let go.

"That's right, you now have two choices. First, kill that alien insect and avenge your brother's tragic death."

Second, capture that alien insect, then put a restriction on it and make it your younger brother, Kagami Ryo.

"While I can't truly empathize with you, I can give you a choice."

Jiang Xia stood up and said, "Whichever choice you make, just make sure your heart doesn't regret it."

I'm the owner and head chef of this restaurant now, not a psychologist. Sometimes I also have a headache dealing with the employees' mental health issues.

"Tiandao, don't stand outside the door, you'll block the other guests."

Jiang Xia opened the door, which was still slightly ajar.

I deliberately left a gap to let the sunlight in, but it was completely blocked.

Even if you're going to eavesdrop, at least choose a different place; don't be so blatant.

Jiang Xia stood at the door and pulled Tendou Souji, who was wearing a black coat, inside.

Good morning, Jiang Xia.

Tendou Souji swaggered in as if he hadn't heard anything.

He skillfully ordered his favorite breakfast.

"Let Xiaoxi do it for you; she should have just woken up."

This was his readjusted schedule. Since getting up earlier wouldn't get him to do anything anyway, he figured he might as well let her sleep a little longer.

As Jiang Xia spoke, she snatched the menu back from Tendou Souji's hand in an annoyed manner.

"Oh, I've never tasted Xiaoxi's cooking before?" Tendou Souji said, leaning back in his chair.

Chapter 186 Baseball

"It's time, Kagami."

Jiang Xia stood up from her seat and reminded him that it was time to solve the problem.

Kagami looked up at the already decorated restaurant and took a deep breath: "Thank you, Jiang Xia. I will give you an answer, and Liang will definitely respect my decision."

As he spoke, he looked at the Zerg limiter in his hand, opened the door, and the sunlight was just right.

Kagami's body passed through the scattered sunlight, and in the gradually dimming sunlight, he walked out, blending perfectly into the scattered sunlight.

A true warrior will always follow his heart and always remember why he fights.

At 10 a.m., Kagami arrived at the place he had agreed to meet with Kagami Ryo, dressed in a sharp black suit, white shirt and black tie, with his hair neatly combed and a serious expression.

"You look really handsome today, brother."

Kagami Akira waved her hands and ran quickly toward Kagami Arata, looking up and smiling.

"You've come, Liang."

"Of course I'll come. I failed to keep my promise two years ago." Kagami Ryo's voice still carried a hint of nostalgia.

“I was waiting for you here back then. After you disappeared, I felt like something was missing, something very important was missing.”

Kagami looked at her younger brother, who looked exactly the same as he had two years ago, and said softly.

"Is it because of me that you stopped playing baseball? I'm sorry."

Kagami Ryo bowed her head and apologized: "I've thought it through. I won't run away anymore, and I'll have a good talk with my dad."

"Thank you, Liang."

"No need to thank me, we're brothers." Kagami Ryo mimed playing baseball together.

He raised his palm high, wanting to give Kagami Arata a high five.

Kagami looked at the familiar movements and smiled, saying, "You haven't changed at all, Ryo. Memory is truly a wonderful thing."

As soon as he finished speaking, a unified voice suddenly rang out behind Kagami Shin, and ant soldiers dressed in black combat uniforms and holding weapons surrounded the area from all sides.

"aim"

The ant soldier, dressed in a black combat uniform, raised his gun and aimed it at Kagami Ryo, who was raising her right hand.

Then, with synchronized steps, they pressed towards the Kagami brothers, Akira and Arata.

"Brother, wait for me a moment. I need to take care of this trouble first, then I'll come back and catch up."

Kagami Ryo looked at the ant soldiers pressing down on him, a strange smile appearing on his face.

The person standing in front of Kagami Arata was no longer his younger brother.

He spread his arms, and with each breath, his tan appearance gradually replaced his human skin, while the pair of transparent wings on his back slowly unfurled.

A piercing shriek came from the ugly and ferocious face.

In addition to the ZECT ant soldiers, many different larval forms of alien insects suddenly emerged from the open space and launched a surprise attack from behind the ant soldiers.

With a powerful leap, the cricket-like insect spread its wings, its brown claws tearing at the tough combat suit. The larvae, with strength several times that of humans, not only knocked the ant soldiers to the ground.

The ant soldiers' dense barrage of firepower was utterly powerless against the swarms of alien insects, resulting in a one-sided massacre. The air was thick with the heat of battle, and the ant soldiers lay dead on the ground.

Having already defeated the ant soldiers, Kagami Ryo walked slowly toward Kagami Arata, who was dressed in a suit, in the center with a smile.

"The enemies have all been dealt with. Now I'd like to ask you for a small favor, brother."

Kagami Ryo smiled gently, "Brother, my companions want to become like you, but don't be afraid. After you die, you can live on inside the alien insects."

"Come on, become like me, let's play baseball together."

"Okay, Ryo, let's play baseball together."

As Kagami Shin watched Kagami Ryo approach, he did not resist, but instead reached out his hands to embrace her.

The two were getting closer and closer, and Kagami's smile grew brighter and brighter.

Kagami Shin slowly opened his hands. Kagami Ryo did not resist. He really liked this older brother. He would wait until his companion finished mimicking before killing him.

Moreover, he knows his brother very well. Kagami Arata is someone who would give anything to protect someone important to him, and he is undoubtedly that important person now. So he can rest assured that they have a lot of time together in the future.

Kagami Arata was much taller than Kagami Ryo. They were true brothers. He stroked Ryo's forehead, feeling the warmth of his skin. The terrifying and desperate feeling from two years ago suddenly disappeared. Kagami had truly come to terms with his brother's disappearance.

Just as Kagami Ryo was enjoying his long-awaited two-year-long hug, a clicking sound caught his attention.

"Brother, what are you doing? I feel... I feel like something's wrong with my body."

Kagami Ryo suddenly shoved Kagami Shin away and stumbled backward.

“Jiang Xia is right, what he gave us can indeed suppress the activity of the alien insects.”

As Kagami Shin watched Kagami Ryo's body contort, he realized that the Worm Bracelet was working.

"Get him! Tear him to pieces!" Zhong Shuai, the alien insect, shouted as it came to its senses, its head contorted in a grotesque manner.

It now feels its consciousness fading, accompanied by a feeling of physical weakness, as its body gradually slips out of its control.

"No, no, you can't hurt my brother." He waved his hand again, scareing away the surrounding alien insects.

The surrounding larvae looked at each other, then instinctively obeyed their leader's command and slowly retreated.

"You're back, Ryo." Kagami Shin said softly, looking at the alien insects that were far away from here.

"Yes, brother, I remember everything now. I waited for you as promised that day, but an accident happened halfway through, and I died by accident. I'm sorry, brother, I didn't keep my promise to you. I'm sorry."

"It's alright, Liang, we've met again now."

Kagami Shin's vision blurred, and everything in front of him became hazy.

"Brother, I may not be able to play baseball with you anymore. Let's do our moves one last time."

Kagami Ryo slowly extended her right hand and raised it high, like a child asking for candy.

"Okay, get ready." Kagami Arata also raised his hand and ran towards his younger brother.

"Snapped."

Kagami Shin's left hand firmly slapped his younger brother's outstretched hand, making a crisp sound.

"That would be perfect, brother."

As soon as Kagami finished speaking, blood gushed from his chest like a fountain.

Kagami Shin's right hand fell limply to his side, and the smoking pistol slowly slipped from his grasp.

"Ryo!" Kagami Arata cried out as he held him tightly in his arms.

He couldn't believe he had actually done it, that he had personally taken the life of his younger brother, Kagami Ryo.

"It's okay, this is my own choice, and it's what I wanted."

Kagami Ryo said, "I fired the shot for you, so brother, don't blame yourself."

Kagami Ryo slowly looked at the pistol that had fallen to the side; there might still be his fingerprints on the trigger.

"It's like I had a long nightmare in which I became a monster and started taking other people's lives."

"I am very grateful to my brother for waking me up and giving me the ability to end my own life. Having taken away other lives, I am destined to have no right to live on."
