"Are we... a little too exaggerated?"
Holding the small bowler hat in her arms, Hino Akane, who had wandered around and disappeared, squatted on the ground. She was panting and her face was still flushed. She didn't know if it was because she was tired or still embarrassed.
Normally, when I tell jokes with everyone, even if I make a fool of myself, I'll laugh along. But why is it that at this moment, when I get a little shy, my legs just run away uncontrollably?
“Because… because…”
After thinking about it, the only difference between them in the past and myself now is the addition of Ash.
"Because I really like him..."
Especially knowing that he's still hanging out with so many Pretty Cure... what's her name? Spending the night away?! Anyway, after all that, would he still care about me, a plain-looking girl with a rather blunt personality who's not as soft-hearted as the other kids?
"But, looking at him..."
Although she was so embarrassed that she ran away again, at least she saw the approving eyes in the end.
"It should be successful, right? Huhu~"
It has never been forgotten... Whenever I think of this, all the grievances I have endured before will turn into joy that I can't help but express.
Okay, the venting is over. Akane, stay strong! We have to go and help find the others quickly. We can't embarrass our Pretty Cure in front of them!
"Here, here, that guy is right here!"
Hearing the call that sounded like a guard's call from outside and sensing a hint of ominous atmosphere, Qian quickly jumped back to reality from the set of the young love movie, leaning against the wall with only a pair of cautious eyes showing, peeking at the changes in the atmosphere.
Could it be that they saw through us and came to arrest us? No, if that were the case, Ash would have definitely been in turmoil!
Looking outside with her eyes wide open, she saw that on the path made clear by these fairy-tale residents, the assembled guards were trotting straight past her hiding place, their target heading in another direction not far away.
"Aren't you here to see me?"
Qian finally felt relieved, but the worry that followed made her heart rise again.
To be honest, although the residents of this fairytale kingdom are still laughing and talking happily, she always feels that there is an inexplicably depressing atmosphere covering the world. She believes that she is not the only one who has a similar premonition!
"We finally helped Tangtang and the Royal Queen defeat Piero and revive the Fairy Tale Kingdom."
If he turns back to his old appearance... she would be the first one to disagree!
But it's strange. Even if the Fairy Tale Kingdom had encountered some kind of incident and needed to be sealed off, why would we Pretty Cure be locked up as well?
"Although it's because of this that we met Ash...!"
While she was complaining, Qian suddenly held her breath and widened her eyes, not for any other reason but because she saw it!
"found it!"
The person who was caught by the guards and was still struggling, was it her?
"Lihua?!"
Why did Lihua appear here and why was she arrested?
91
Chapter 91: The bad influence on the little girl...is immeasurable!
This is strange to say, the five members of Smiling Pretty Cure came here with great anticipation only after receiving the invitation letter from the Fairy Tale Kingdom.
Then, faced with the royal family's thank-you invitation, Miyuki and Reika, missing their companion "Tangtang," were the first to respond. Akane, Nao and Yayoi, told them they wanted to have some fun in the fairytale kingdom first, having missed it last time, and would follow later.
What they hadn't anticipated was that the departure of Miyuki and Lihua would cut off all contact with this area, and the road back to Seven-Colored Hill was inexplicably cut off. Just as the three of them were worried, Ash suddenly took their place, and then everything that had happened until now happened.
"Finally found it! The thief who broke into the castle and was trying to escape was dressed like this. Is he trying to hide his identity?!"
"Let me go!"
Lihua seemed to be struggling to explain something to the elf guards, but now the girl, who had not transformed and was just wearing a cherry pink kimono, was obviously unable to struggle free and could only be taken away.
"You've all been deceived! The real Tangtang wouldn't issue an order to blockade the Fairy Tale Kingdom. We're here to help you!"
"You're still trying to quibble. Take him away!"
"..."
As for whether her friend might have done something bad, Akane didn't even need to doubt it. She threw the magic wand in her hand, which was just a cosplay prop, to the ground. The makeup box in her other hand was the real transformation prop.
"Lihua, we're here to save you! Precure Smile Char-!"
Just when Sakura was about to transform into Pretty Cure and realize the cross-border collaboration, she felt something hard inserted into her open mouth, pressing hard on her gums that made her numb, and blocking her last word "Charge".
“Ugh—woo!”
What is this? It's so salty!
"Shh~"
The person who interrupted from behind, blocked Qian's throat, and brought her back to the dark in a silent voice was naturally Ash.
"Don't you realize it? This is your chance, Qian. If you act now, all your efforts will be wasted."
Ignoring the mumbling in his arms, Ash felt the sticky protest between his fingers, so in order to make her quiet down, he continued to stir his fingers and played hide-and-seek with the more flexible object inside.
"It seems that Lihua was abducted, but she can help us find clues to the case—hiss!"
No, you really bite it?
Looking down again... her misty eyes were filled with anger, grievance, even shame, and a hint of inexplicable emotion. Qian stared at him, as if provoked by something, unwilling to let go. In such a place where only men and women were, it was impossible not to have bad associations.
"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!"
Either perish in silence, or explode in silence. Akane clearly belonged to the latter, so she took the first step and rushed towards Ash.
So a rather strange scene took place in this deserted alley. The magical girl actually rode on the Kamen Rider, grabbed him and "bite" him as if to vent her anger. The scene suddenly became a bit flirtatious and not suitable for children.
"Hey, hey, a Pretty Cure like this who doesn't care about her image will have an immeasurable impact on the little girl."
"What are you talking about, the person who has been destroying the impression of Kamen Rider Justice in boys' hearts since the moment he appeared!"
Anyone else, even Piero, can say it, but you, a guy who has sexual desire for Pretty Cure, have no right to say it!
"So they say Kamen Rider is never a righteous ally... Well, I was wrong."
As he was in the wrong first, Ash raised his hands in surrender and finally picked up the wand on the ground and put it in her hand, then he took down Qian who was about to bite his head.
"Humph!"
No matter what time, Ash really doesn't understand the feelings of girls...
Turning her head and carrying Ash behind her, Qian could only bury her unhappiness in her heart, thinking that one day she would take revenge on this guy!
It's just right. There are more and more Pretty Cures now. It would be great if our Smiling Pretty Cures could also gather together... In short, the outline of a plan gradually took shape in Akane's mind.
"But is it okay to let Lihua be taken away by the guards like this?"
Also, you have the nerve to ask someone else's good friend to be the bait!
"If it were somewhere else, I would definitely be worried, but this is the fairy tale kingdom after all."
It seems that as a Pretty Cure, you don't understand as much as I do~ Ash was shaking his fingers and making "tsk~" sounds, which made Akane on the opposite side quite angry.
"There's no such thing as torture of captives in children's fairy tales. At most, she'd be given a pork chop meal."
However, Lihua likes light flavors and cares about her figure, so if she really has to eat pork chop rice, it might be really bad for her.
"Whoo~"
After hearing what Ash said, Qian finally breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.
"Then let's quickly take Yayoi with us and chase after them together!"
"Yayoi went there earlier and went to the prison to collect materials."
"So fast!"
Ever since becoming a cartoonist, Akane always feels that the former crybaby Yayoi's motivation has skyrocketed, while her moral integrity has correspondingly plummeted.
After turning left and right through the streets and alleys, the two finally arrived at the side building of the royal palace castle, the only building that was always covered by dark clouds and was so lifeless that it fits the stereotype of a prison.
Qian, who was licking her lips, looked up and down at all the doors and windows of the prison and became interested.
I've seen this episode in a movie. Next, the two of us have to follow the prison guards' footsteps and rescue the bound princess in time before she's about to be discovered. Thinking about it this way, it's really tense and exciting.
"Xia, what are you still standing there for?"
"Oh!"
Qian responded and tried to catch up, but she was completely stunned when she saw Ash in front of her. She pointed with a trembling finger and asked.
"You, where are you going?"
"Through the main entrance, of course."
Ash greeted the prison gatekeeper as if it was a matter of course, and successfully completed the notification amid the girl's surprised and puzzled eyes, and the gate opened in front of them.
"What are you surprised about?"
"I'm Kamen Rider, you're a magical girl. We're both partners in justice. Upon hearing about a thief of this magnitude, isn't it natural for us to rush over with anxiety and concern?"
"..."
Someone once said that Kamen Rider has never been a ally of justice... Isn't the double standard too obvious?

Chapter 92: Lihua wants to act coquettishly.
"There's a saying that goes, 'Taking the long way around is the real shortcut.'"
"But compared to taking shortcuts or long detours, sometimes the true answer lies right on the path we're walking on."
Qian, who was following Ash, finally understood what was going on. When Ash was a bad guy, he was a riddle man, and when he was a good guy, he spoke some flowery quotes from nowhere. The common point was that he never spoke properly!
"How much do men like to show off..."
The sighing girl lifted the brim of her hat. With her free hand, she twirled her wand around aimlessly, her gaze scanning the prison. Seeing the mostly empty cells, one could only say that the prisons in the fairytale kingdom were more decorative than practical. Who would have thought that the first prisoner would be a Pretty Cure... Hmm, I think I've heard this story before, in one of Lihua's stories.
"But I also heard Lihua say that when she was arrested. Could it be that someone higher up is influencing Tangtang, and even the entire Fairy Tale Kingdom..."
For this reason, they chose to imprison us Pretty Cure, not letting anyone in and not letting us ask for help...
As Akane was lost in thought, Ash's gaze fell on the wand twirling in her hand. It looked like she liked it, too, though she just wouldn't admit it, which made Ash tease her.
"What's wrong? You said you were just trying to get away with it at first, but you ended up having more fun. What's going on?"
"It's not a joke..."
Qian couldn't help but turn her pouting lips to the side, and thought to herself, who do you think you are showing this to?
Actually, I'm not that confident in myself, so...
"Ash, I am..."
"I think he's the one I like."
Before Akane could finish her worried question, Ash gave the answer first.
"Do you remember that rainy day when I was so overwhelmed by the vision of the future that I lost my mind and could have attacked you at any moment? But you were the first to stand up and turn your back to me without hesitation, saying you would protect me."
Qian was momentarily flustered when she didn't expect Ash to suddenly bring this up, but she was also more surprised in her heart that he actually... still remembered it!
"I just, I just subconsciously felt that I should do what I should do!"
Because when we faced that wicked enemy, Gagu, it was Ash who risked his life to defeat him. Even if that caused a discrepancy, if I were to stop trusting Ash because of that... I simply couldn't do it!
"If it was the old Ash who told me to protect me, I would have thought he was arrogant. But Akane back then was truly, incredibly brilliant."
I will never be able to forget the flame of passion that even a rainy night cannot extinguish.
"If I had to say when I fell in love with you...it was that time."
His footsteps inexplicably quickened, and as he passed by Qian like a gust of wind, Ash walked towards Lihua's cell first.
"..."
Qian, who was standing there in a daze, held up her increasingly hot face and felt the curve of her mouth with her fingers, which could not be smoothed out no matter how hard she stroked it. Then she couldn't help but laugh again: "Puff~ Hehehe~"
I am so happy. Even if I want to be a little reserved, I can’t do it! Because I am really happy now!
Yayoi appeared from the corner in front like a ghost, glanced at Akane, and then followed Ash with a devilish smile.
"Another victory for Brother-sama?"
