He recalled the confrontation with the masked man just now, and reaffirmed that his faith did not lie in the so-called "fate"
, but your own choice and effort.
However, faced with his friends' concern, he had to make up lies to cover up his true experience.
"Ling Yang!"
A familiar voice came from the alley, with warmth and care.
Shengzhen walked closer quickly, and her dark blue scarf fluttered gently in the autumn night breeze.
"Are you really okay? I was so worried."
There was a hint of anxiety in Sheng Zhen's eyes. He looked at Wu Lingyang carefully, as if wanting to confirm whether he was okay.
"Ha ha,"
Wu Lingyang smiled casually, "Don't worry, I just ran into some trouble. But luckily I met another Kamen Rider who helped me."
"Other Kamen Riders?"
Shengzhen raised his eyebrows slightly, obviously questioning this story.
"Um,"
Wu Lingyang nodded calmly, "It is indeed another Kamen Rider. I have never seen him before, but he is very capable and helped me solve a big problem."
Sheng Zhen's mouth curled up slightly, and then he patted Wu Lingyang's shoulder, "I'm glad to hear that you are safe. Let's go in quickly. It's a bit cold at night."
Because this is a fusion world, Sheng Zhen has indeed encountered other Kamen Riders, so he believed what Wu Lingyang said.
As you enter the Yorozuya, a warm feeling hits you in the face.
Wu Lingyang felt a little relaxed, and the tension just now and the lies he told to calm Sheng Zhen gradually turned into a sigh.
Gangen Xingguo asked with concern: "Are you all right?"
Wu Lingyang smiled and said, "I'm fine!"
Shengzhen agreed: "I'm fine too."
The warm light of the Yorozuya softly shines on the old wooden floor, and the picture frames on the wall appear slightly mottled due to the changes in light and shadow.
Wu Lingyang walked into the room, gently took off his coat and hung it on the hanger next to the door.
He breathed a sigh of relief, finally being able to temporarily put aside the burden of the day.
"Looks like we need something to drink to warm ourselves up."
As he spoke, Shengzhen walked towards the kitchen and suggested, "Anything you want to drink? Coffee or tea?"
"Be careful not to spill it again,"
Gangen Xingguo reminded with a smile, the scene of Shengzhen staggering to serve coffee last time was still vivid in his mind, "It would be troublesome if it gets all over you."
Shengzhen exaggeratedly made an aggrieved expression and said, "I have experience, okay? I can help you all fix it!"
Wu Lingyang laughed softly.
Just as he was about to share this rare relaxing time with his friends, the mysterious masked man involuntarily emerged in his mind.
He felt a little uneasy. Even if he could get away with it temporarily with a lie, he could not forget the things the masked man mentioned.
19. A new day begins (asking for flowers)
Shengzhen came back with three cups of steaming drinks and placed them on the table one by one, creating a comfortable atmosphere.
"Come on, drink it. Warm coffee is best for an autumn night like this."
"Thanks."
Wu Lingyang took the cup and blew away the hot steam.
At this moment, he seemed to have regained a sense of security.
"What are you going to talk about tonight?"
Gangen Xingguo asked, half leaning on the back of the sofa, with a leisurely light in his eyes.
"Actually, I just made some new graphic designs and wanted to get your opinions."
Shengzhen suddenly became interested, opened his backpack and picked out a few design drawings.
Wu Lingyang put aside his worries and looked at Sheng Zhen's work seriously.
The three of them sat around a small table. The patterned table lamp cast a warm halo of light, and their conversations could be heard from time to time in the quiet atmosphere.
"This color combination is good, more lively than the last one,"
Gangen Xingguo said, pointing to one of the works and looking at it carefully.
Shengzhen smiled proudly, then turned to Wu Lingyang, "What do you think?"
“Yes, it’s really creative.”
Wu Lingyang praised with an insincere smile, even though his mind was still struggling with other things.
And so they chatted for a while, talking about design, life and those unimportant little things.
In this pleasant atmosphere, they all temporarily forgot their troubles.
On the quiet night, the three of them fell into silence one after another.
After a while, they said good night to each other and went back to their rooms to rest.
Wu Lingyang lay on the bed, looking at the swaying shadows of trees outside the window, his thoughts drifting away.
He knew that he might face more unknown challenges tomorrow, but at this moment, having friends by his side at least made him feel a little warmth and calm.
He slowly closed his eyes, hoping for a wonderful dream.
The next morning, the morning light quietly filtered through the gaps in the curtains and fell onto the floor of the room.
The birds singing outside are clear and melodious, as if awakening everything that is sleeping.
Wu Lingyang rubbed his eyes, sat up from the bed, and sighed softly.
His mind was still filled with thoughts from last night, but the morning air made him feel a little more refreshed.
He quickly washed up and walked out of the room.
In the living room, Shengzhen had already prepared breakfast and was leaning against the kitchen door frame while drinking a large cup of strong tea.
"Good morning, Lingyang! The weather is nice today."
Shengzhen greeted with a smile.
"Morning, Shengzhen."
Wu Lingyang responded with a smile and walked to the dining table.
On the table were some golden toasts, a small bottle of jam and some fruit.
He reached out and picked up a piece of toast, spreading jam on it, doing the action almost mechanically.
"Is breakfast ready?"
Gangen Xingguo, who had just washed her face, also came out, her hair still slightly damp.
He smelled the fragrance in the air and a look of pleasure appeared on his face.
"That's great, it's Shengzhen cooking again!"
"Hey, I'm used to getting up early."
Shengzhen shrugged complacently and continued drinking his tea.
Three people sat around the dining table, and their simple breakfast seemed particularly leisurely in the quiet morning.
The sunlight shines on their faces, illuminating every smiling moment.
Occasionally, pedestrians walk by outside the window, and the hawkers' cries can be heard not far away. Everything seems so peaceful.
The silence of the early morning was gradually broken, and the sunlight shone through the curtains onto the dining table, adding a touch of vitality to this warm little house.
The three of them enjoyed their breakfast quietly, chatting from time to time, and seemed particularly leisurely.
"Any plans for today?"
Wu Lingyang raised his head and his eyes moved between Gangen Xingguo and Sheng Zhen.
At this moment, he had a relaxed smile on his face, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
A new commission means new challenges, and the unknown always makes people uneasy.
Gangen Xingguo put down the coffee cup in his hand, smiled slightly, and said: "Actually, I'm used to starting every day like this. After breakfast, it's almost the quietest time. I think when I receive the commission, everything will be busy. But no matter what, with you by my side, I can always face it easily."
Shengzhen nodded in agreement, with a hint of relief in his voice: "Yeah, we've been through so much together, we've seen all kinds of messes, these are nothing."
He shrugged slightly, looking completely unfazed by the possible challenge.
Wu Lingyang smiled gently. Although he was still a little worried, he understood that no matter what difficulties he faced, he would feel more at ease with such a friend around.
The air was filled with the aroma of coffee and jam, the sunlight gradually moved to a corner of the living room, and the shadows became shorter and shorter.
Silence does not seem heavy, but instead brings a sense of security.
Outside the window, the birds are still singing and the hawkers’ cries are still rising and falling, adding a layer of bustling shadow to this early morning.
In the warm sunshine, just as the three of them were enjoying the tranquility of breakfast, the bell at the door rang softly, breaking the silence in the room.
An old figure walked in hesitantly.
20. New commission, the Yorozuya trio is out! (Please give me flowers)
The old woman held a cane tightly in her hand, and every step she took seemed a bit difficult.
Shengzhen immediately put down the plate, stood up, walked quickly to support her, and asked carefully: "Are you okay? Sit down and rest for a while."
His voice was gentle and concerned.
Wu Lingyang stood aside and watched the uninvited guest with a caring smile on his face. He hurried to the kitchen to make her a cup of hot tea and placed it on the table.
"Thank you, thank you."
The old woman looked up at them, her face full of wrinkles and her eyes full of fatigue.
After she sat down, her hands holding the teacup trembled slightly, and the tension on her face eased a little.
Gangen Xingguo sat opposite her, leaned over slightly, and asked in a gentle voice, "Is there anything you need our help with?"
Her slightly aged voice was tinged with sadness as she spoke: "This is what happened... My cat was lost a few days ago."
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.
"It was left by my old partner. It's the only one left to keep me company."
Hearing this, the expressions of the three people suddenly became extremely serious, and there was a hint of sympathy and responsibility in their hearts.
Wu Lingyang tried to make his voice sound more confident: "It's okay, we will do our best to help you find it. Can you tell us more information? For example, what does the cat look like? Where does it usually go?"
The old woman took out a yellowed photo, which showed a black and white kitten curled up on the windowsill basking in the sun.
She looked at the photo and said gently, "It often runs to the nearby park, and sometimes it stays in the tree in the backyard."
Shengzhen nodded, put the photo away and put it in his pocket: "Don't worry, we will find it soon, you can rest here. These are all trivial matters, don't let it worry you too much."
Gangen Xingguo gently patted the old lady's shoulder and said firmly: "Drink some tea first and keep your strength. We will definitely bring you good news soon."
In the tacit cooperation among the three, an invisible sense of responsibility makes their steps more steady.
Although it was a new task, the warmth and trust between neighbors made this morning no longer just an ordinary start.
Outside the window, the city slowly wakes up under the sunshine, and everything seems full of possibilities.
Gangen Xingguo, Wu Lingyang and Sheng Zhen walked out of the old woman's house and split up to look for the kitten in the nearby streets and parks.
Gangen Xingguo walked along the path towards the park, keeping an eye on the surroundings.
He looked not far away and saw a group of children playing on the grass. The sunlight shone through the leaves on the ground, creating a vivid picture.
He thought to himself, "I hope I can find it here. Maybe it likes to hide where the children play."
He approached the group of children, smiled and asked, "Children, have you seen a black and white kitten? It may be playing nearby."
