I, the Stand-in, Kamen Rider

"Hmm... It feels a little out of balance, but it feels like Cyclone is too strong, so you should do your best to get rid of your partner, okay, let's disband today~" Shoutaro stretched his waist and said .

"Axiu, the parts are assembled, and they are temporarily stored here at Revol Garry." Liu Li ran out of the compartment and spoke to Gu Chengxiu.

Gu Chengxiu nodded, "Thank you, Liuli, for taking the trouble to design this for me."

"Hey, then I want to eat strawberry cake. And strawberry Daifuku!"

"Ah, I understand." Gu Chengxiu greeted everyone, and then left Narumi Detective Office with Liuli.

On the way back, Gu Chengxiu looked at Liuli, "Liuli, you seem a little absent-minded?"

"No, I was just thinking about something - something about Shotaro and Philip-senpai." Liuli said.

"? What happened to them?"

"Shoutaro seems to be unable to control the power of W stably today, right?" Liuli tilted his head and said, "That's a sign, the power of senior Philip is greater than that of Shotaro."

Gu Chengxiu's eyelids jumped suddenly.

"W both sides, if one side has too much power over the other, that will happen." Liuli continued, "The current power of the Cyclone memory, to Shotaro, is like your first time. Same with Unicorn."

"Why is this?" Gu Chengxiu frowned and asked.

"Extreme (extreme) memory." Liuli continued, "During the last incident, I came into contact with Senior Philip."

"? Well, how does the memory without a plug-in contact the user?"

"That limit is different from the limit memory you've seen that I can make." Liuli explained helplessly, "Very different."

"...But... this time, we have no way to intervene." Gu Chengxiu said, "Human beings have to experience it before they can grow."

Kojou said, "Human beings cannot grow without experiencing it. Even if it is pain, sadness... you have to endure it..."

"However, as long as someone you trust is with you——no matter how great the grief is, it shouldn't be a problem."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The next day, Kojou Osamu and the others set off together early in the morning, heading to the place where the [Bear] was stored as Shotaro said——

A villa located in the depths of Mount Fuki, which was provided by Narumi Shokichi to hide his secret client.

And [Bear] is indeed not a real animal, but a lifelike wooden bear with a fish in its mouth.

All the staff were dispatched, only Liuli and Philip stayed in the compartment together.

Although Philip didn't say anything, Liuli had already seen that there was a green electric current rushing through Philip's hand, just like an electrified wire.

"...Senior Philip, is there really nothing wrong with your body?" Liuli asked.

"...I don't know, I just know that my body seems to have some new power." Philip said slowly.

At this time, Denden Sensor sent out a response of someone coming.

"?!" Liuli and Philip stood up at the same time.

The door to Revol Garry's compartment was suddenly opened, and a woman in a black windbreaker, a hat, and a bandage wrapped her face walked in.

"Shroud?! Why are you here?!" Philip said in astonishment.

"I knew about this place before you did," Shroud said calmly.

"Eh?"

"Come here—you will evolve soon, use the Extreme memory." Shroud said, "However, the real partner who can control this power is not Shotaro Sa..."

"Snapped!"

The sound of the wooden food box being smashed sounded, Shroud looked at the food box at his feet, and the girl with an angry expression on her face.

"Axiu, he is my unique partner, you are not allowed to make plans with him!" Liu Li gritted her teeth, looking like an angry little beast trying to protect its territory.

"What about you? Your power is far superior to Gu Chengxiu. Sooner or later, he will be unable to control his power... In that case, it's better to let Gu Chengxiu be the partner of the visitor, so..."

"Paji." Liuli threw her favorite glutinous rice dumpling directly on Shroud's face.

"I said it! He is my unique partner! Even if there is uncontrollable power, we will overcome difficulties together, and it is not your turn to make irresponsible remarks!" Liuli gritted her teeth again and said.

"..." Shroud felt a little helpless looking at Liuli like this.

"Shotaro... can't keep up with my power anymore." Philip said this in a low voice, a little helpless.

……

The wind blows the mountains.

The client's villa is located by a river, and it looks a little old.

Pushing open the door, it was dark and smelly inside, but after all, no one has lived here for a long time, so of course I haven't even cleaned it. Although it is a bit old, the facilities in the room are all available. Almost nothing is missing.

"Shotaro, where did you see the bear?" Akiko asked as he entered the room.

"In the attic, that's where I saw it last time."

Kojou and Kirihiko opened the windows and doors to ventilate the room.

Gu Chengxiu let out a breath and looked out the window.

It feels so bad, like someone is saying bad things about him behind his back.

Gu Chengxiu frowned and looked out the window.
