Chapter 331

371: Beyond expectations

The unexpected development gave many viewers an ominous premonition, especially Zhou Na's suspicious temporary amnesia and Silent Suzuka's idea of ​​what was right, which almost made the plot reach the worst possible outcome.

Fugitives from another dimension: Has the character in the video been replaced by the Zerg before the plot begins?

Super high school level detective: very likely.

Super High School Level Detective: The Zerg started acting just after Special Zhou left. In addition, Special Zhou herself has no memory of this period of time, and it seems that she did not buy a drink as she said. If you think about it carefully, the timing of this insect attack is also very suspicious.

Thumbelina of Science: Is this the so-called dual personality? This mimetic special Zhou has the personality of being a horse lady and the personality of being a zerg?

Basic reasoning: It should be right. This special mental state may be the reason why the Zerg is unwilling to copy Ma Ni.

Assistant: It is very possible that although the copying ability of the zerg is very buggy, in order to be better compatible with the copied memories and emotions, the personality of the zerg itself should not be strong and it is relatively easy to be affected by the person being copied, so in When encountering beings with strong egos, the Zerg will suffer from self-cognition disorders.

Emperor: And Ma Ni is a being with very pure emotions. The Zerg's ability to perfectly copy all the memories and emotions of its victim has actually become a disadvantage when copying Ma Ni.

Emperor: The reason why the excellent qualities of mimicry were dormant for 3 years before it started to act is probably because it found a place to slowly adapt to digest the memory of excellent qualities.

Okino T: Should I say that she really deserves to be a horse girl?

[The encounter with Silent Suzuka and Special Zhou ended abruptly due to the attack of the zerg. Although the Emperor of the East China Sea was very concerned about the anomaly of Silent Suzuka, the priority of investigating the mysterious Lion-Hearted Dusk was obviously higher than that of Silent Suzuka. In addition, the latter is obviously related to the thunderfly insect meter currently used by Silent Suzuka.

So, after Twin Turbine said that she could call Lionheart Dusk out, the Emperor of the East China Sea immediately asked her to make a call.

Unexpectedly, Lionheart Dusk, whom the Emperor of the East China Sea thought would be difficult to meet, actually readily agreed to make time to see her after hearing that Twin Turbine had something to do with him.

The two made an appointment to meet at a coffee shop near Tereson College. When Donghai Emperor and Twin Turbine arrived, the tall horse girl whom Donghai Emperor had seen once was already sitting in them.

"Long time no see, Twin Turbine. It's really rare that you would take the initiative to contact me. Well, although I really want to say this, it seems that the person here who has trouble with me is the Donghai Emperor lady here."

Lionheart glanced faintly at the two horse racing ladies sitting in front of him, and his golden pupils especially stayed on the Emperor of the East China Sea for a long time.

"You are a guest, how about sitting down and having a cup of coffee first? Since you are a friend of Twin Turbine, I will treat you."

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."

The Emperor of the East China Sea did not regard herself as an outsider at all. After she and Twin Turbine took their seats generously, she ordered the most expensive coffee in the store without ceremony, and began to look at each other without saying a word.

The wordless silence lasted for a long time. When the desserts ordered by Shuang Turbine were all served, Shuang Turbine finally seemed to be unable to bear the silent atmosphere and opened the topic.

"Speaking of which, Torena, you are actually from ZECT. I didn't know that before."

"Because you didn't ask, and the ZECT thing is not something you can talk about casually."

Lionheart Dusk took a sip of coffee.

"Then let's get down to business, Miss Donghai Emperor, what do you want to know?"

"Seven years ago."

The Emperor of the East China Sea looked into Lionheart Dusk's eyes and said with a serious expression.

"How much do you know about what happened at the Tokyo Racecourse seven years ago? What is the so-called Kamen Rider plan? What was the reason for Silent Suzuka's abnormal behavior?"

Three questions blurted out in a row, and Donghai Emperor Jin said all the problems that had troubled him so far.

But beyond the expectations of the Emperor of the East China Sea, although Lionheart Huanghuang's expression did not change much, the Emperor of the East China Sea saw disappointment in her eyes.

"It seems that the time has not come yet."

"What's the meaning?"

The Emperor of the East China Sea frowned, while Lionheart Dusk drank the coffee in one gulp and then said.

"Literally, you should not come to me for answers to these three questions. If you are really the chosen one, then you should ask yourself."

Lionheart Dusk picked up the cane placed aside and stood up directly.

"Don't be satisfied with the status quo, Emperor of the East China Sea. If you are truly a man of heaven, then your enemy is yourself. Go beyond her. When you complete your transformation, all the truth will naturally come to you. ."

"……etc."

The Emperor of the East China Sea paused slightly, and then chose to stop Lionheart Dusk, who was going to pay the bill. The latter stopped but did not look at the Emperor of the East China Sea.

"You want me to be the sun?"

"That's right."

Lionheart Dusk smiled and turned to look at the confused Twin Turbine.

"By the way, Twin Turbine, I originally asked Miss Junchuan to inform you in advance, but since we are rare to meet today, I will inform you here."

"What?"

I couldn't understand the overly stream-of-consciousness conversation between the two. Twin Turbine's expression was a little dull. Only the spoon in his hand still maintained the mechanical action of scooping out the cake and putting it into his mouth.

"The cinephile unit has been disbanded. Miyu will temporarily join Captain Nishizaki's team starting tomorrow."

"!?"

Twin Turbine's eyes widened, and he waited until Lionheart left the cafe at dusk before speaking blankly.

"Who is Nishizaki?"]

Okino T: Damn it! Sure enough, no one remembers that my name is Nishizaki Ryu!

Mother of 11 children: Huh? Isn't your name Okino Koji?

Emperor Dance Steps: Chi Ji, what the hell is your ID?

39 Number One in the World: What a big family.

Devil Bomber: I felt that Lionheart Dusk spoke in riddles before, but I didn’t expect that when he and the Emperor of the East China Sea were together, he couldn’t even speak a human word.

I know everything: Lionheart Dusk is undoubtedly looking forward to the East China Sea Emperor becoming stronger, and is confident that the other party will definitely achieve its expectations.

Chaos Evil Gudazi: Huh? what happened? Why did the cinephile unit disband?

Emergency food: It's because Mi Yu failed to successfully transform into a royal bee.

Iron Lady: Even the twin turbines can be selected by the Queen Bee Insect Meter, but it is impossible for Miyu not to be selected.

Two jets:?

Pure Love God of War: Maybe the situation has changed, so let’s keep watching.

372: Cinematic Hunting (4k)

[In the ZECT headquarters office a few days ago.

Mi Yu, who had short black and smooth hair and covered his right eye with long bangs, looked a little pale as he listened to Lion Heart Huanghuang's words.

"...The above is the task you have to complete next. Is there anything you don't understand?"

Sitting upright on his office chair, Lionheart Huanghuang quietly stared at Mi Yu, who looked very poor. His usually cold tone was rarely softened.

It's a pity that Mi Yu, as a listener, did not feel this softness.

From the perspective of her kind-hearted nature, the first mission she performed after becoming the Queen Bee was a bit difficult to understand. At least with Mi Yu's not-so-smart little mind, she had no idea that Lionheart Dusk would ask her to do this. intention.

——Can such behavior really bring happiness to everyone?

Doubts were born in Mi Yu's heart, but at the moment when such thoughts occurred, Lion Heart Huanghui's words slowly spoke as if he had penetrated Mi Yu's heart.

"Mi Yu, what kind of person do you think it would be to be a hero?"

"well?"

The sudden question interrupted Mi Yu's thinking about the task, and the word "hero" that she cared about naturally attracted her attention.

——What kind of person is a hero?

For Mi Yu, who yearns for heroes, she has naturally thought about such a question, but it is difficult for a pure pony girl to give an accurate answer to the big horse girl in front of her.

In the end, she could only think of a fairy tale called "The Blue Rose of Happiness" that she had read when she was a child, and gave the other party a vague answer.

"He is...a person who can bring happiness to Dajiao's family. Mi Yu believes that as long as he can do this, then this person is qualified to become a hero for others!"

After hesitantly expressing his inner thoughts, Mi Yu, who thought he would be laughed at for being naive, received a rare smile from the unsmiling commander in chief.

As if she was happy for Mi Yu's idea, Lion Heart Dusk clapped her hands and applauded. The gentle smile on her face matched her usual image, and for a moment Mi Yu actually felt like the commander-in-chief. It's not as inaccessible as it seems on the surface.

"Mi Yu, your understanding of heroes is very good. You give others hope and happiness. This is also my view of heroes."

Lionheart looked at the setting sun outside the window at dusk, reaching out to point to the red sun, but gave up on this move halfway.

Miyu didn't miss this action. The iconic gesture of pointing one finger in the sky reminded her of a person, a Kamen Rider who was recently active in ZECT's field of vision.

"Does the Commander-in-Chief think Kato is such a hero?"

"Um."

Lionheart Dusk nodded without hesitation and looked at his hands, as if recalling something from the past.

"Jia Dou is the first kind of hero in my mind. She is the sun itself. She will radiate her own light and heat, and her warmth will illuminate every life in the world. And Mi Yu, I hope you become the hero in my mind." The second type of hero.”

"The second type...hero?"

Mi Yu quietly looked at Lion Heart Huang's side face that was stained red under the sunset, and felt that his heartbeat was beating faster and faster involuntarily.

"Yes, the second type of hero. The lives saved by the solar energy transformed by humans depends on its height. The higher the position, the farther the range of her light radiates, but the sun is the apex high above, there is no It is difficult for her to raise her own height without reference.

Therefore, the existence of the second type of hero, similar to 'Icarus', is necessary. Someone must fly high into the sky, even if they burn themselves out, they must challenge the sun, let the sun know that her height is not enough, and let her surpass her current self. "

Lionheart Dusk, who was staring at the sun, looked at Mi Yu again.

"I know that my thoughts are very selfish. If you become this second type of hero, her achievements will naturally be obscured by the light of the sun. Except for me and a few people, no one will remember your efforts. In the eyes of the world, you will be the same as 'Icarus' will become synonymous with fools.

But my plan will not stop, Mi Yu, if you want to give up the identity of the Queen Bee now, it is not too late. If you give up the King Bee Insect Instrument here, I will allow you to leave the phantom army directly like Twin Turbine.

All you need to do is keep the plan I told you today deep in your heart. I will find someone else to choose the King Bee candidate. "

The atmosphere in the office became extremely quiet, with violet pupils and golden pupils staring at each other until Mi Yu clenched his fists and spoke out what was on his mind.

"I……"

…

A few minutes later, Mi Yu left Lion Heart's office at dusk.

Until now, Lionheart Dusk breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Junkawa Tetsuna, who had been acting as a backdrop.

"The kid Mi Yu will be looking after you from now on. Unlike the strong-willed Kusami Fei and the rough-hearted Twin Turbine, the kid Mi Yu needs some guidance."

"I see."

Junchuan Tetsuna nodded, but Lionheart Dusk didn't see it, and there was also a trace of hesitation in the latter's green eyes.

Knowing the complete picture of the Kamen Rider plan formulated by ZECT, she knew exactly what kind of Shura path Mi Yu and other horse girls would take in the future.

She was not a core figure in Kamen Rider's plan and couldn't understand why senior officials, including Lionheart Twilight, were willing to put so much trust in Kato.

Is Kato really the sun?

With such doubts, Junchuan Tezuna also left Lionheart Dusk's office. 】

"Icarus and the Sun..."

In the depths of the Quantum Sea, Kevin, the leader of the fusion warriors who collapsed the world, couldn't help but be touched by Lionheart Dusk's words.

He had discussed similar topics with a wise philosopher in the distant past.

One of the philosopher's views is still fresh in Kevin's mind - the first bird spread its wings and flew, its purpose was not to fly into the sky, but to fall, to show its compatriots the possibility of flight, and to look forward to it when it fell. Those who come after the author can surpass their current height.

Kevin believes that what Lionheart Twilight is doing now is similar to this view, and it also makes him feel that Lionheart Twilight is somewhat similar to himself.

"Lionheart Twilight, are you also expecting the Emperor of the East China Sea to trample on the dreams of other Kamen Riders and reach a certain height that you expect?"

While understanding, Kevin couldn't help but feel a hint of envy in his heart.

Compared to Lionheart Twilight, who has already found two heroes, when will the hero he is looking forward to appear?

[The time goes back to the day after the first official meeting between East China Sea Emperor and Twin Turbine and Lionheart Dusk.

As expected, Twin Turbine saw Mi Yu who was transferred here in Okino T's van.

At this time, Miyu did not always wear the combat uniform of an ant soldier like he did during the period of the cinephile army. Instead, he wore a cute lady's suit. When he stood with Ikuno Didus, he really looked like one. It feels a bit like a junior who has just come to the company for internship.

Normally, Twin Turbine would probably be happy to see an old friend coming, but now thinking back to the news about the dissolution of the fandom from Lionheart Dusk, Twin Turbine felt a little guilty in his heart.
