Masked Rider, but kindhearted

"There's a voice in my head telling me to devour you! I love you, Sho-chan... Let's become one!"

"Sayo Nala (Goodbye)!"

Muttering to herself, Marina took out a yellow Gaia memory and prepared to insert it into the memory port on her neck.

At that time, under the promotion of a mysterious salesman, she and her boyfriend bought Gaia Memory.

Revenge on Winscale was achieved, but her boyfriend Yosuke lost control and went berserk...

With the help of Shotaro, she successfully devoured Togawa Yosuke and killed him.

If she eats her boyfriend Yosuke, that rampaging idiot won't reveal himself, but well... Shotarou is actually Kamen Rider.

In order to solve the problem once and for all, she came here to eat Shotarou and silence him completely!

"T-Rex"!

......

......

At the same time, somewhere in a remote countryside, Fengyue Village.

The name is nice, and judging from the map, it barely falls within the scope of Fengdu. It is not actually uninhabited, but it is not far from being deserted.

Young people in Neon Countryside are all flocking to big cities. For example, there are not many young and middle-aged people in Fengyue Village. Most of them work in places like Fengcheng City and the neighboring Osaka City. Those who are more ambitious may go to Tokyo to work as migrant workers.

The severity of the aging problem in this country is hard for most ordinary people to imagine. According to statistics, there are more than 15000 villages that have reached the "limit", that is, there are so many villages where more than half of the residents are over 65 years old. In some villages, the youngest person is even 65 years old.

As the elderly continue to die and the young continue to leave, these villages will gradually develop into "ghost villages" and eventually disappear completely from the administrative map. This has seriously affected the stability of Japan's social structure and greatly reduced its resilience to economic shocks and large-scale natural disasters.

But this is a national affair, something that the government needs to pay attention to. The residents of Fengyue Village don't understand it at all. They only know that life will be better and easier in big cities, so they don't want their children to return to the village at all.

Even if they understood, they wouldn't want these young people to return to their rural villages. The older generation of farmers, with their husbands and wives toiling away for a year, could only earn about 1.7 to 8.1 million yen, while their children, after successfully graduating from university, could earn at least 3 million yen a year as a clerk in a big city. So why bother returning?

The aging population in Fengyue Village has reached an alarming level. All the villagers are over 65 years old. It has only been in the last 10 to 20 years that it has become a "ghost village" or even ceased to exist.

Under such circumstances, this "treasure land" was spotted by interested people - the museum deceived these old people in the name of investment and acquired a large piece of land at an extremely cheap price.

The Gaia memory refining plant was built in secret.

The leader is none other than the museum's big sister, Sono Saki Yako...and her loyal subordinate, the ace salesman, Sudo Kirihiko-san.

......

"Anata, your suggestion is really great~"

A cool and beautiful lady in uniform walks hand in hand with a handsome man in a well-tailored suit on a country road. The beauty looks beyond the layers.

Originally, according to the boss behind the museum, Sonosaki Ryubei, they would just find an abandoned factory and modify and build it according to the convention, which would save time, effort and money.

Well...mostly to save money (crossed out)

However, his prospective son-in-law, Sudo Kirihiko, proposed a completely new suggestion - "Avoid the sharp edge, be tolerant for the time being; bide your time and seize the opportunity"!

In simple terms: Kamen Rider is too brutal, let's just stay safe for a while.

What kind of person is Mr. Sonosaki? He's been unrivaled throughout his career, facing investment from Consortium X, yet he stood firm, made the money, and is now able to enjoy a peaceful retirement.

With his social skills and the man-eating tree, even if he holds up a museum in one hand and eats dessert in the other, he is still invincible in this world!

"What?! I'm avoiding him?!"

This was Sonosaki Ryubei's first reaction.

"Kirihiko, we, the Sonosaki family, cannot be so cowardly and retreat when faced with difficulties."

This was Sonosaki Ryubei's reply to Sudo Kirihiko.

However... when Sudo Kirihiko showed him two videos—one showing Kamen Rider Brand slicing the sea and splitting the waves with a single strike, and another showing Kamen Rider Brand's battle with the Correction Hybrid and other monsters, there was a crater-like structure left on the outskirts of Fuuto, and a hill in the distance that had been flattened...

Well... young people nowadays are so willful, it's okay to indulge them a little...

Times are changing, and museums must keep pace with the times. Perhaps Kirihiko has unexpected leadership skills...

After watching the battle video, Sonosaki Ryubei calmly agreed to Sudo Kirihiko's somewhat bold proposal.

You have to know that he is a son-in-law who has not yet married into the family, but he had the audacity to give advice to the most powerful person in the Sonosaki family!

It was like the return of the urban god of war, COSing the legend of Fengdu's son-in-law.

Of course, the truth is - Sonosaki Ryubei thinks that his fear memory is invincible. No matter how perverted the enemy is, as long as their intelligence is lowered by the fear light, they will all become his loyal minions!

However, we cannot generalize the physical constitution of different people, and the specific situation needs to be analyzed specifically.

Tendou Souji's fancy form looks a bit abnormal - there is no special mechanism, just pure numerical beauty.

Judging from the battle video, the opponent's attack range might be even wider than his mental attack range. It's unclear whether he used all his strength. After all, his attacks were all like "I switched forms, killed him in one blow, what's there to say?"

It belongs to the range of ADC, the value of the top laner, the length of the health bar is unclear, and there is a question mark whether there is a blue bar.

Supermodel, such a supermodel!

A noble wizard like Sonosaki Ryubei, who believes in equality for all, is ultimately just a squishy creature who will die if he is hacked... What if the other person is out of range and is killed by a single blow?

Thus, Sudo Kirihiko completed the historic first step - the first major change in the museum's development policy, and it was formulated by someone other than Sonosaki Ryubei.

——"Boy, you will handle this well, right?"

In order to restore his dignity and also to warn this son-in-law, Sonosaki Ryubei did not ask Sudo Kirihiko, but turned to ask his daughter Yazi.

Gradually, the daughter became the initiator of this matter, reminding Sudo Kirihiko that he was just a mediocre worker!

This move is really brilliant, Master Sonosaki!

It's a pity that the master is lonely and lacks a discerning butler to praise him.

——"Of course, Father, our museum is thriving~"

A victory declaration from the museum's second-in-command!

......

Back to the present.

A middle-aged man who is very familiar with the local area said confidently:

"Sir, follow me along this path!"

The two boys followed him and entered Fengyue Village along a small path that could hardly be called a "road".

Of course, this uncle claimed to be familiar with the local area, but he was not actually a native of Fengyue Village - the village was full of elderly people, and he was an unlicensed doctor wandering around the nearby countryside, selling some daily medicines to earn a hard-earned living, but more importantly, he could not bear to see these elders suffer.

His name is Tanaka Hiroji, and he's from the village next door... He's one of the rare people willing to stay in the mountain village for a long time these days—but he's getting old now, and I don't know how much longer he can hold on...

The sponsor came to inspect the factory construction and was willing to provide generous consumption. Naturally, Tanaka Hiroji was happy to lead the way. He also came to the village to chat with the familiar elders and give them some summer heat relief medicine.

Now that the weather is getting hotter, most of these elderly people are self-sufficient by farming... They are old, have been working hard for years, and are exposed to extreme weather... It is easy for their bodies to have problems.

Fengyue Village.

In an open space in the center of the village, a tall factory stands out, which is completely different from the low houses around it.

"This village really has no labor force at all..." Sonosaki-chan was a little dissatisfied.

This village is extremely remote, halfway up the mountain, and supplies can only be transported up by manpower.

If there were enough young labor in the local area, the worst that could happen would be to spend more money to hire them, and the construction progress of this memory refining plant would not be so slow.

The basic staff of the museum secretly used the memory and worked overtime day and night to speed up the construction. During this period, more than a dozen people died from overwork, and a few others did not want to work overtime and were killed as an example to others.

Chapter 116 Wakana's Date Strategy/Think about what the Heavenly Dao would do? (4K)

Saying it was "death from overwork" might not be entirely accurate—the Masquerade was, after all, a basic, mass-produced museum piece, with relatively few toxins and no particular compatibility issues... but it couldn't withstand 24/7 intense use.

These people basically collapsed due to physical collapse... In short, with some necessary sacrifices, the factory was successfully completed today!

Congratulations... Congratulations.

"It can be put into production today. The performance of the new product will be greatly improved. The future is bright. The ultimate evolution of mankind is just around the corner!"

Sudo Kirihiko led his lover Yazi into the factory, proudly introducing it while imagining the future.

......

On the other side, in a small house in Fuuto.

Sonosaki Wakana's private residence.

I had agreed to go on a date with her, so I told her the factory address, but ended up having to come to her house...

"The slippers are there."

The girl said this and hid in the bedroom.

Tendou Souji found the shoe cabinet with ease and changed into a pair of men's slippers.

This was his second time visiting Wakana's house, but with his good memory, he wasn't overwhelmed - this was just a typical neon-style single apartment, just a little bigger, and the overall structure wasn't too complicated.

Neon has a small land area, and land is very expensive. For young people, single apartments are generally the most popular choice of housing, with an area of ​​about 20 to 35 square meters.

This kind of house may be small but has everything: with the open kitchen and three-dimensional storage, it does not appear crowded or messy at all.

Miss Wakana is a simple-minded woman with a lot of money, so she probably rented the most expensive model. It looks to be more than 40 square meters, which seems quite spacious for one person to live in.

Although it is strange to prepare a pair of men's slippers in a place where a girl lives alone... maybe Miss Wakana has her own ideas?

"It can't be prepared specially for him, right?"

Of course, Tendo Souji wouldn't think so. Never having been in love doesn't mean he doesn't understand feelings. Call it narcissism, but with Wakana's personality, he doesn't think any other man can receive such treatment except himself.

It is really troublesome for women to put on makeup. It is such a waste of time.

After sitting on the sofa and waiting for a long time without any movement, he got up and walked towards Sonosaki Wakana's room.

The door was ajar, so he pushed it open without hesitation and saw a young girl sitting on a recliner in front of the window, her legs crossed and her toes swaying as she read a book.

She was wearing a slightly old-fashioned white pajamas, which was very different from her usual trendy dressing style. Her long black hair was softly draped over her shoulders, covering half of her face, and the ends of her hair were chestnut-colored and curled in the light.

The warm sunlight penetrated the glass like mercury and poured in, casting a golden halo on her body.

Her eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, and even the fine hairs on her face were all clear, as if she had applied light makeup and been illuminated, making her face even more delicate and beautiful, making it impeccable.

But her eyes seemed half open and her head was shaking, as if she was about to fall asleep... Obviously, she was not a good and focused student.

Tendou Souji looked closely and saw something on the side of the book that said "Girls' Date A Live, a dating guide that even beginners can quickly master!"... something that made no sense.

So, this guy had already put on his makeup, but only started planning when the time came?

"How about we make an appointment another day? Can you give me the factory address first?"

He walked over to Sonosaki Wakana, held her shoulders and shook her to wake her up a little, and made a tentative suggestion.

"No! We agreed on today, today is today!"

This woman is cuter when she's confused...

Obviously, when Miss Wakana regained consciousness, her inherent temper came out, and her tone was full of aggressiveness and unreasonableness.

"So, Ms. Wakana, where are we going on our date?"

Tiandao Zongsi said helplessly.

——"Be careful how you address me. Treat me as Yuuka today! I'm very experienced in dating, just listen to me! Anyway, anyway...don't rush me! Let me think about it!"

--"walk slowly"

He sat down on the edge of the bed very naturally and just stared at her.

I will always watch you...watch you...forever...

I, Tiandao Zongsi, will see today how long you are going to procrastinate!
