Masked Rider, but kindhearted

Even at this point, Moriyama Jun was still prepared to struggle - if he couldn't deceive Jun anymore, he absolutely didn't want to fight this man who looked so invincible head-on!

"Um, Kamen Rider-san..." Moriyama Jun quietly took a few steps back, keeping a safe distance, "There's an executioner watching me. If I fail the mission, I'll die!"

"Please be magnanimous, and let me go..." He kept bowing, almost kneeling and kowtowing, "I only ruined the performance, I didn't hurt anyone!"

What he didn't say was: he wanted to ruin the show and make Ozawa Yuka fall into deeper despair and pain again... It wasn't a big deal that the Thorn Memory in her hand was taken away by Kamen Rider, the important thing was that her pain must not be reduced!

As long as she maintains compatibility with her memory... then the boasts he made to Master Yazi will have a chance to come true, and he won't be punished!

"Stop right here, no one will get hurt... I'll take care of the executioner as well," Tendou Souji said, approaching with the Thunder Sword in tow. "Choose now, submit to me, or die here."

Moriyama Jun had a conflicted look under his mask, and finally his eyes fixed - he didn't believe in promises!

Even if he works diligently, he will only be treated as a cheap and useful cow or horse. He has to betray his colleagues, please his superiors and discredit his opponents, which is why he has come this far!

Even though he has done so much for the museum, he will be held accountable if he makes a small mistake, let alone the Kamen Rider who only knows the appearance of a person but not his heart?

If he can be shaken by just a few words from the other party, then all these years have been wasted!

"Of course I am willing to submit to you..." Although he said this, he began to gather strength with his feet.

Moriyama Jun sprinted across half the stage and grabbed Ozawa Yuka. His sharp claws dangled in front of her fair neck, and he smiled a triumphant yet twisted smile: "If you continue to attack me, I won't guarantee this lady's safety~"

Seeing that Tendo Souji was standing there motionless, he became even more presumptuous - these so-called righteous guys would be bound by such simple moral rules. He, Moriyama Jun, was the winner who laughed last, the real trump card!

"To tell you the truth... Saotome was coerced by me. I know her family's information. If she doesn't do as I say, she'll be left alone like you the next day! Hahaha..."

Moriyama Jun felt even more pleased when he saw the angry expression of the girl in front of him.

That’s it, be angry, be in pain... In the end, turn all of this into nutrients and become the strongest [Thorn Dopant]!

At this moment, he was suddenly knocked away by a powerful impact. He turned his head and looked behind him in disbelief: "Shark?!"

A shark formed from the condensed water flow attacked him out of nowhere and knocked him directly to the edge of the stage, even eating away a large piece of his elbow armor.

Until this moment, he was still fearless.

"Kamen Rider... you are indeed very strong," Moriyama Jun laughed maniacally. "You didn't think that Saotome, that idiot, would take the blame for me just by threatening me with surveillance, did you?"

"Hahahaha—" He spread his hands, facing Tendo Souji with his chest, "Come and kill me... If I die, Saotome's family will be buried with me!"

"Hey, it doesn't matter if innocent people sacrifice for this... Aren't you Kamen Rider?" Moriyama Jun was stunned - this Kamen Rider not only had no intention of giving up the attack, but continued to approach him!

"What a pathetic clown-like character..." Tendō Souji walked over while putting the Thunder Sword into the drive, ready to activate the ultimate move.

......

......

Chapter 45 Heavenly Dao: You are too lazy to listen!

Tendou Souji threw two shattered memory sticks at his feet, his words calm and composed, yet each one piercing the heart: "I killed your men long ago. The information about contacting you was faked by police professionals."

On the day Miss Saotome was arrested, Tendo Souji privately went to the solitary room where she was imprisoned to inquire about her and made a promise with her - Tendo Souji would help her protect her family and find the real murderer... Miss Saotome would need to apologize to Miss Yuka and make the truth public.

On the same day, he killed the two thugs who were monitoring the Saotome family, and with the help of police officers, he lured this guy out.

Of course, he didn't know who this guy was beforehand.

However, as long as you are patient enough...the prey will always take the bait.

None of his tricks worked. Looking at the giant man in gold and blue armor approaching, Moriyama Jun was completely terrified. He burst into tears and said, "Brother, I will tell you everything, please spare my life..."

"I'm an ace... How could I fall here..."

【Must-kill read】!

【（Alngina Shark）Alngina Shark】!

"The stage accident three years ago was an accident. I'm just a salesman and have never really killed anyone. This was all just to make Ozawa Yuka and the memory fit better..."

"Are you the salesperson?!" Ozawa Yuka became even more angry.

The power of the thorn memory allowed her to regain her health, and she was secretly grateful to Moriyama Jun.

Three years ago, Yuka Ozawa was forced to retire at the height of her fame due to a stage accident. From then on, she lived the life of a disabled person, lost the chance to dance that she loved, and witnessed the death of her mother... She was devastated.

Just before Moriyama Jun appeared, she heard a rumor that someone had deliberately framed her for the accident... Just when her sorrow turned into pain and anger - he appeared.

Moreover, when the other party was promoting the Gaia memory, they were full of rhetoric such as "for lofty ideals" and "for promoting human evolution".

Now, the other party admitted that the accident was just an accident, and her pain and anger were deliberately channeled, just to cultivate a memory adapter...

Thinking about it now, it’s so hypocritical!

Ozawa Yuka collapsed to her knees, staring at the black impurity with hatred, gritting her teeth and saying, "Mr. Tiandao... help me... kill this guy!"

"At this point, any excuses are useless... Selling memories alone is enough to get you killed ten times over," Tendo Souji sighed and shook his head. "I'm too lazy to reason with you. You don't deserve to hear it!"

【Two volumes of beheading】!

——"Go to hell!"

The lightning and waves intertwined and slashed across, and the Fengdu Grand Theater returned to peace.

The purple-black [Joker Memory] shattered, and the Ace dopant transformed into a human form. The Earth Drive on his waist was completely damaged after a burst of lightning.

As the transformation was lifted, the erosion of Gaia's memory toxins on him also eased. Moriyama Jun was still unwilling to give up, and squeezed out the last words from his throat, "I'm sorry, I am a despicable villain, but I really... I have never killed anyone..."

"People who don't go to the battlefield themselves but incite war are not innocent..." Tendo Souji took out the Fantasy Drive Book to dismantle his transformation and walked towards Miss Yuka without looking at him again. "You will bear these sins and tell the victims."

Afterwards, Jun Moriyama turned into dust and was blown away by the wind, leaving only clothes on the ground and a black baseball cap with a [J] engraved on it.

The museum’s former sales champion, now a clown, can’t make a comeback.

At least, Tendo Souji doesn't think that this kind of person deserves the title of "Ace". Even Shotarou is more suitable than him.

Ming Hai Shouji lowered his hat and warned Shotarou beside him in a deep voice: "He doesn't know he's wrong, he just knows he's going to die."

"Yes, Master!" Zuo Xiangtaro excitedly watched the extra performance on the stage and exclaimed that it was so exciting - he was worthy of being Brother Tiandao...

No matter how insidious and cunning the enemy is, as long as this man appears, it means victory is at hand!

"Ms. Yuka..." Tendo Souji stretched out a hand and placed it in front of Ozawa Yuka who was kneeling on the ground. "Are you okay? Can you stand up?"

Yuka Ozawa had been forcing herself to perform on stage despite a leg injury, and she had just suffered a strong emotional fluctuation. She felt her body was extremely weak. She barely held the hand extended by the man and stood up shakily.

"Should I take you backstage to rest?" Tendo Souji glanced at the audience below. Because of the previous battle, most of the audience had run away. At a glance, only the detective master and apprentice were still sitting calmly. "Don't force yourself. You can perform again next time."

"Mr. Tendō is so gentle," Ozawa Yuka noticed his eyes and realized that her comeback performance was probably ruined, so she couldn't help feeling a little lonely.

"My body is so useless. I really want to agree to it... If I act a little bit cute, maybe I can get Mr. Tiandao to hug me..."

"But... my first dance after I've recovered... I really want to dance for him..."

"It's okay," Ozawa Yuka tried hard to suppress her frustration. After she steadied herself, she pulled her hand away from the man's warm palm. She took a deep breath and smiled sincerely, "Hey, there are still viewers, right?"

Tendō Souji was speechless. Zuo Shoutaro in the audience took the lead in applauding, followed by Ming Hai Shouji beside him. Finally, Tendō Souji on the stage also clapped silently, looking at her intently, admiring her dance.

In this dim, shabby stage without accompaniment or audience, the applause of the three people overwhelmed the silence in the darkness.

Yuka Ozawa met the gazes of her three companions and danced gracefully and softly to the rhythm of applause.

As she spun, the hem of her skirt brushed past Tendou Souji's calves. She leisurely stopped in front of him, her face half covered by a sandalwood folding fan, revealing only her seductive eyebrows and eyes, which were full of longing and girlish affection. She looked up slightly at the young man.

"Mr. Tiandao, you are my salvation, my dawn, my unique sun... I want to dedicate to you—not just this dance... but also my life, my soul, everything I have..."

She said to herself silently in her heart.

After the dance, Ozawa Yuka relaxed, and the accumulated pain burst out. She staggered and almost fell to the ground. Seeing this, Tendo Souji hurriedly supported her.

"Mr. Tiandao..." Yuka Ozawa threw herself into his arms.

It works every time when you bump into people with the ball!

"My legs hurt so much, can you carry me back?"

'This woman, here she comes again...'

Tendo Souji didn't reply to prevent Miss Yuka from getting any further. He just reached out and easily picked her up and walked behind the scenes.

'good chance! '

Taking advantage of the princess hug, Ozawa Yuka stole a kiss: "Hehe, I love Mr. Tiandao the most."

Tendou Souji narrowly avoided the assassination, allowing the kiss to brush past his cheek like a dragonfly skimming the water.

"Miss Yuka, if you tease me again, you'll be thrown down."

Image: "Cheers to the celebration party?"

Chapter 46 We need to go deeper

A week has passed since the incident involving Miss Yuka, at the Narumi Detective Agency.

"...Kamen Rider Brand, along with his fellow Kamen Rider Skull, with the support of the police and the Narumi Detective Agency, destroyed the Gaia Memory Processing Plant, which primarily produced Violent Memory... After this battle, Ms. Ozawa Yuka was able to return to a normal life, and Wind City ushered in a rare period of peace."

After recording the incident on a typewriter, Shokichi Narumi lay down on the back of his swivel chair, turned half a circle to the right on tiptoe, and faced his disciple Shotarou next to him.

"Master, do we have to record events in English..." Shotaro was a little discouraged. He could learn everything else, but his English wasn't that good...

Ming Hai Shouji picked up the coffee on the table, took a sip, and frowned slightly at the bitter taste: "Can we just use Romanization to deal with it?"

"That's not what I meant..." Shotaro said with a bitter face, thinking, it seems I still need to study English hard...

"Is it really true that coffee can't be brewed well without adding sugar?" Ming Hai Shouji muttered to himself, "But that guy Tian Dao, he can make delicious coffee without adding anything..."

"So it's not the sugar or the coffee beans that's the problem! It's your cooking skills that are terrible!"

Shotaro Sae complained inwardly, but didn't dare say it in front of Uncle Minghai.

A doorbell rang.

"Come in." Shotaro Zuo went to open the door.

A handsome man and a beautiful woman walked in side by side. The girl was radiant and youthful, while the young man was elegant and handsome, but with some dark circles under his eyes...

"It looks like he's been drained..." Shotaro sighed rudely in his heart.

"Brother Tiandao, thank you for your hard work," he quickly poured the young man a cup of coffee.

"Thank you," Tendo Souji reached out to take it, raised the cup expressionlessly and took a big sip of bitter coffee.

Fortunately, he has gradually adapted to Uncle Ming Hai's devilish coffee. In a sense, it is quite good for refreshing himself...

This week was a rare peaceful one, with no adulterants popping up to cause trouble.

The police are busy with the aftermath, and the reconstruction of the Gaia Memory Processing Plant has entered the investment promotion stage. The factory originally used to produce "violence" is expected to be used to build a food processing plant.

Probably processing the raw materials into instant desserts or something like that.

Only the stage of Fengdu Grand Theater was damaged. Some audiences and staff were invited to receive psychological counseling. The stage was also quickly repaired with a large investment of funds and manpower.

Among them, the investors behind the theater paid the largest share and also sent a thank-you letter to the Minghai Detective Agency. The remaining part was supplemented by special support funds applied for by the Fuuto police.

The Fuuto Police Station meant that they wanted to express their gratitude to Mr. Tendo and his companions for their continued help. They would also do their best to handle these miscellaneous matters so that the Kamen Riders could devote themselves to the battle without worry.

There's a new guy at the Fuuto Police Station, and according to his colleagues, he's a tough guy who's difficult to get along with.

Tendou Souji has been too busy lately and hasn't had time to meet him.

The masked woman who called herself Shroud came to him again, and said something mysterious like "He is the most suitable candidate" and "He and that child will become the best partners"... and so on.

But she was always reluctant to reveal more information about the museum, and whenever asked, she would simply say, "It's not the right time yet" and "You still need to grow up."

Riddlers who appear in TV dramas will be scolded by the audience, let alone such important matters in reality where human lives are at stake!

Ms. Yuka's comeback was relatively smooth. As a once-popular dancer in Fuuto, many people felt sorry for her retirement that year. Although her first performance was ruined by that clown, there were still many fans willing to support her afterwards.

It is worth mentioning that after Sonosaki Wakana, Miss Yuka became Shotarou's second idol. Ozawa Yuka was dissatisfied with this and complained that she was such a big shot that she could not compare to Sonosaki Wakana.

Shotarou could only reply awkwardly that he could sing all the songs released by Princess Wakana, but he was not very good at appreciating the dance. Besides, it was really hard to tell which was better between the mature queen style and the energetic sweet girl style...

What Tendo Souji found more troublesome was that Miss Yuka's leg injury was still not healing well.
