I, the Stand-in, Kamen Rider

"?? Huh?" Gu Chengxiu made a strange sound.

"If you fight continuously, your body will be overwhelmed. We have Leo and Klaus here. Don't worry, we won't lose, and we will win back beautifully. You should take a good rest." Stephen said, "Thanks for your hard work."

"...Ha...I'm not that fragile."

"For the sake of your body, and you are also our indispensable companion, if there is any mistake, it will be too late to regret it." Stephen's voice was very firm, "And, we also have a new one here. Helper, just take it easy."

"...Ha, well, I understand." Gu Chengxiu rubbed his hair, "But, if you are in danger, you must call me."

"Well, don't worry, nothing will happen." Stephen smiled.

……

"In the end, why did you come here, where is Leo?" Xiao Bai pouted, looking at Gu Chengxiu, and asked.

"He has something important to do today, and I'm going to be on vacation for now after finishing my work." Gu Chengxiu put the book in Xiaobai's hand, "Here, let's treat it as a Christmas present. "

"Christmas is still a long time away." Xiao Bai complained, and then took the book in Gu Chengxiu's hand.

"I know, but Halloween is very close." Gu Chengxiu smiled, "If possible, then go to see the parade with Leo?"

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

"Halloween..." Xiao Bai was attracted by Gu Chengxiu's words.

"Well, we don't have the custom of Halloween in China. Although we have heard and celebrated this festival, it is different from here after all-it is said that it will be very lively that day. Do you want to go with Leo?" Gu Chengxiu asked .

"...What's so good about going with him..." Xiao Bai clasped his hands on his knees and muttered.

"After all, I think you like Leo very much? Although that kid is very ordinary, he is indeed a very kind and nice person." Gu Chengxiu smiled, "Although I have seen him cry, but he is still very strong. people."

"...None of my business..." Xiao Bai muttered again.

"Speaking of which, are there any customs for Halloween here?"

"It's probably a parade." Xiaobai replied, "However, in our hometown, people still believe that the souls of the deceased will return to the former residence on this day to look for life on the living, so as to be reborn. Ghosts and elves There will be such legends.”

"Hey...that's really interesting."

"I used to scare Xiao Hei by pretending to be a ghost. Xiao Hei is very timid."

"Xiao Hei...referring to William, right? The nicknames given to you by your parents are exactly the opposite." Gu Chengxiu said, "However, the temperaments of your siblings are more complementary."

"is it?"

"I don't have brothers and sisters, so I can't understand so much." Gu Chengxiu sat on a chair beside him, then picked up the apples from the fruit he brought, took out a small plate, and used a fruit knife to slice the whole apple at once. The skin of the apple was peeled off without breaking it, then he cut the apple into pieces, took a toothpick, and put the plate on Xiaobai's bedside, "But what I know is that there is a person who can understand each other and rely on each other." The family is a very happy thing.”

"..." Xiaobai looked at Gu Chengxiu who said such words, and inexplicably felt that inexplicable...

Sad breath.

Xiaobai didn't choose to ask questions. If he asked questions like "Where's your family?" at this time, he would be no different from an idiot.

That is undoubtedly similar to unraveling someone else's scar and adding salt to it, it's simply - no, it's an act that an idiot would do at all.

"Why did you come to see me? You want me and Leo to go to the parade..."

"...Well, it should be regarded as concern for friends. I have experienced sad things, so I hope that people can have happy smiles, and I hope to protect such smiles and protect such people." Kojou said He replied, "Maybe I can only protect them where I can reach them, but I will definitely do my best."

"...What an idiot. It's fine with you, and it's fine with Leo." Xiao Bai muttered.

"What about William? Didn't he stay with you all the time?" Gu Chengxiu asked.

"...That..." Xiaobai was silent for a while, "Brother has important things to do."

"Hey... Well, if that's the case, I won't bother you too much." Gu Chengxiu stood up, and then wrote a note, "This is Leo's phone number, this phone is for you, call him when the time comes Well, he will definitely come to pick you up, and there is also my phone number inside, if there is an accident, you can call me to ensure that you are safe and sound. "

"Is it necessary to do so much for people who just met twice?"

"...Well, how should I put it... I just didn't want to make myself regret, so I helped." Gu Chengxiu scratched his head, and put the Stag Phone on the table, "So, sorry for the trouble."

……

Liuli stood outside the door of the ward, and immediately walked up when she saw Gu Chengxiu, "How is it?"

"Well, there is a little breath, but how do you take it out? I remember that it should be your job, Liuli, to recover the fragments. Why did you ask me to check the state of the fragments?" Gu Chengxiu asked.

"After all, Axiu, you look like you want to help them? And there is a big problem with Xiaobai's heart." Liu Li said, "I felt a very strong magic power in Xiaobai's heart Reflection, it should be some kind of magical engraving, right?"

Gu Chengxiu asked strangely, "What do you mean?"

"Forget Axiu, you don't know anything about magic power, magic, magic, etc.—then let me explain a little bit, Xiaobai's heart has a big problem, and it's all because of the white fragment and the magic power in her heart The reason for the reaction." Liuli paused, "Besides, the magic reaction on Xiaobai's heart is very similar to the magic reaction of the nodes of the 'Great Barrier' I felt that day."

"What..." Gu Chengxiu let out a startled voice.

I don't blame Gu Chengxiu, after all, if you were a human being, what would you think if you told someone, "That girl has a nuclear switch in her heart"?

But this is magic after all, not reality, so Gu Chengxiu quickly calmed down.

But if the problem started at the time of the big collapse, then the "spell" must have been in operation for about three years, right?

"So Xiaobai should have lived like this for the past three years, right?" Liuli said, "Axiu, do you remember that I told you that someone wanted to destroy the Great Barrier?"

"In order to destroy the node, it is very possible... no, I will definitely go to Xiaobai..." Gu Chengxiu gritted his teeth, "Damn it!"

If you want to destroy the barrier, you must destroy all the nodes in the barrier to allow the big collapse to happen again—so, the possibility of attacking Xiang Xiaobai is almost inevitable.

"Don't worry, I left Taka Can to monitor, if something goes wrong, I will use the power of Space memory to rush over." Liuli seemed to remember something, and then said to Gu Chengxiu, "Axiu, can you squat down for a while? "

Gu Chengxiu gave Liuli a strange look, then squatted down.
