Chapter 250
The corners of his mouth raised slightly.
But that upward arc was quickly replaced by pain.
As Shotaro Zuo spoke, the tough guy fighter also followed the autopilot navigation and landed at the Swing Sprint, which was called by Shotaro Zuo at some point near Sonosaki's house.
The Swing Dash's hatch opens.
Phillip slowly got up from the ground.
The Tough Fighter landed slowly.
Shotaro Zuo lost his balance, fell from the Tough Fighter, and fell to the ground.
After placing the pastry chef, Terui Ryuya released his transformation. He walked quickly to Shotaro Zuo and helped him up: "Zuo! Are you okay?
"What the hell is this?!"
However, Zuo Shotaro just pressed the Joker memory against his heart. He kept shaking his head and panting. His whole person seemed to be showing symptoms of aphasia due to fear.
He held Terui Ryu's hand and said in a weak and trembling voice: "Teru, Terui...
“You are, you are the last hope.
"The matter of protecting Fengdu...
“I’ll leave it to you.
"Let me, a dabbler, see...
"What is a real tough guy..."
Then, Shotaro Zuo gasped again.
Then, he looked at Phillip, forced a smile with great reluctance, and then asked: "Hey, Phillip...
"Just now, was I handsome enough?"
And Phillip came to Zuo Xiangtaro. He looked at Zuo Xiangtaro and replied: "It's so embarrassing..."
"but......
"Very handsome."
Shotaro Zuo smiled reluctantly.
Let's just say he was satisfied with Phillip's answer.
Soon, his expression became ferocious again.
He was in a state of fear all the time, with disordered breathing, rapid heartbeat, and muscle twitches from time to time.
Even though he held Joker's memory tightly, the symptoms did not get any relief.
He seemed to be completely sealed in a world of fear.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Terui Ryuya immediately turned his eyes to Philip standing on the other side.
Philip looked at the Luna memory in his hand and shook his head slightly. Then, he slowly raised his head and looked at Terui Ryuu, and then sighed slowly: "Ryuu-san...
"From today on, Kamen Rider W will completely become an illusory legend in the capital..."
"After today...
"No more Kamen Rider W."
Terui Ryu frowned slightly. He came to Phillip's side. He looked at Phillip and said seriously: "What's going on?"
Phillip looked at the panting Zuo Shotaro.
"Shoutaro, he risked his ability to transform into Kamen Rider W in order to save you and the pastry chef..."
After hearing Philip's explanation, Terui Ryuya's eyes widened, and he looked at Zuo Shotaro again.
"What?!"
And Philip opened his mouth to explain:
"Here's the thing..."
...
Move time forward slightly.
Not long ago, after receiving the police officer certificate from Terui Ryu, Detective Zuo Shotaro finally gritted his teeth and chose to leave.
He drove the van used to lurk near Sonosaki's house, and then successfully sent Yukiko Sasaki from Sonosaki's house to a certain forensic doctor at the Fudu Metropolitan Police Department...
But after that, he made another choice.
Perhaps it's because courage can be accumulated over time, or perhaps Shotaro's inner reluctance makes him resonate further with Joker's memory...
All in all, after completing the task of sending Yukiko Sasaki to the Fudu Metropolitan Police Department, Shotaro Saso regained the courage to step into Sonosaki's house to perform his duties as a detective and Kamen Rider.
Considering that Kamen Rider W has appeared in front of the Terror dopant of Sonosaki's house, the investigation of Sonosaki's house has been completely exposed, so Shotaro Zuo did not choose to hide this time.
He even used his stag mobile phone to summon the Spin Dash parked in the office, and then mounted the Tough Guy Fighter with red components that matched the Heat memory, preparing for a direct air strike.
Above the sky above Sonosaki's house.
The engines of the tough fighter jet roared.
Detective Zuo Shotaro's left hand tightly held the Joker memory in his hand. At the same time, his left hand also held the brim of his hat. With his fingers trembling slightly, he drove the flying machine relatively smoothly in the air. The tough guy fighter is constantly patrolling in the air, looking for Kamen Rider Accel.
At this moment, he was wearing the W driver around his waist.
Philip's consciousness connected with his.
Phillip's voice sounded.
【Shoutaro......】
【Are you sure you want to do this? 】
Shotaro, who was flying the tough fighter, answered with his body trembling slightly.
[I have made the wrong choice. 】
【I can’t make the same mistake again and again...】
[Detective, if you can't protect your client and complete the client's request, you are completely disqualified. ]
[And Kamen Rider, if you give up saving the citizens of Fuuto because of fear, how can you be praised by the citizens of Fuuto, and how can you be called Kamen Rider? ]
[I must make up for my mistakes. ]
[Even if it's just a last-ditch effort, I have to make up for my wrong decision...]
[Even if it's just once...]
[I will overcome fear. ]
Satoro paused slightly.
[And...]
[Tsurugi Ryu is crucial...]
[You should have noticed it...]
[Although I don't want to admit it, that guy seems to have a physique that is immune to the fear projection of the Terror doped body. ]
[If we say who among us is most likely to defeat the Terror doped body, the leader of the museum head-on...]
[It's only him. ]
[And the Terror doped body will definitely realize this. ]
[Therefore, Tsurugi Ryu is in danger. ]
[I must help him. ]
[The identity of the enemy has been made clear. 】
【We can't lose our last hope. 】
【We must save Terui Ryu. 】
Philip's sigh echoed.
He tried to persuade Shotaro Sa again.
【But, your condition is really bad. 】
【I have already explained this to you before...】
【With your current condition...】
【We may only be able to use the three memories of Joker, Heat, and Luna to complete the W armor. 】
【Using Gaia memory other than these three memories will cause an imbalance between the left and right and make it impossible to maintain the W armor. 】
【Even if we can barely maintain the balance, our combat effectiveness will be affected by this kind of reluctance. 】
【And...】
Philip paused for a moment.
【If you enter the black mud again and the Terror dopant projects fear into your mind, your condition is likely to deteriorate further...】
【At that time, it is very likely that even resonating with the Joker memory will not be able to dispel the fear in your heart. 】
【And if that is the case...】
【You may not even be able to use the Joker memory. 】
【You may completely lose the qualification to transform into W. 】
【In other words...】
【If you insist on returning to Sonosaki's house...】
【Then this may be the last time we transform into Kamen Rider W together...】
【Even...】
【If you are unfortunate enough to be contaminated by the black mud...】
【The most basic detective work, and even normal life, may be greatly affected. 】
【The worst case scenario...】
【You may die like the Sweets doped body. 】
After hearing Philip's words, Shotaro Sa lowered his hat brim slightly, hiding his expression.
At this moment, the overwhelming black mud also attracted Shotaro Sa's attention. The black mud summoned by the Terror doped body allowed Shotaro Sa to quickly lock the location of the Terror doped body, Kamen Rider Accel, and the pastry chef.
Then, it was the scene where Kamen Rider Accel fell into despair.
Looking at the scene where Kamen Rider Accel was in a desperate situation, Shotaro Sa also answered Philip——
[If I choose to avoid fighting and responsibilities because I am afraid of losing the qualification to transform into Kamen Rider...]
[That is the real loss of the qualification to transform into Kamen Rider...]
[If I choose to avoid danger and avoid facing the enemy because I need to keep my detective work...]
[Then what's the use of keeping the detective ability? ]
[As for life...]
[Didn't you know it a long time ago? ]
[Like the uncle, he is still practicing the detective's duties until the last moment of his life, protecting those who should be protected...]
[All along, I have embarked on the current path because I yearn for such an uncle...]
[There are always things more important than life, right? ]
Although it was only a brief moment, Shotaro Sa seemed to have overcome his fear, his hands were no longer shaking, and his body became as firm as his eyes.
[Sorry, Philip...]
[Maybe it was destined to be like this. ]
[Your evaluation is very pertinent...]
