"I see. Let's plan something for the summer break then."
Fang Wen waved goodbye casually.
What Chen Ran was going to do was not his concern.
Everyone has their own secrets.
He had his too.
Besides.
As he had just said, he had indeed made plans to go to the internet cafe for some intense gaming. He was going to have a showdown with the guys from the next class who had awakened their Rider Drivers, and teach them a lesson.
Especially since they called their awakened Rider a mass-produced model...
Fang Wen hummed a tune as he left.
Chen Ran smiled and shook his head.
Following the memory in his mind, he turned and walked in a certain direction. As a reborn person, his two lives' memories merged, making his mindset younger. However, his past experiences were not faked.
People, after experiencing much, also become mature.
It is the sedimentation written by time and past experiences on them.
Stepping out of the school gate, he didn't encounter anyone who liked the school beauty blocking his path, which left Chen Ran a little disappointed.
Isn't that how urban novels are written?
Why isn't it working for me?
Actually, this is the normal state of affairs.
Chen Ran had awakened a new Rider sequence, and even Principal Li of Jiudu First High School treated him with extreme kindness. Moreover, Decade, even on the surface, was not that weak. Aura is a mysterious thing, but because of the Hope Particles, those who awaken as Kamen Riders often have a very mystical feeling.
Rider armors have never been divided into grades.
The official statement also claims they are treated equally.
However, after decades of the Rider era, people have privately researched some things.
The concentration of Hope Particles not only determines whether one can awaken a Rider Driver.
In terms of basic data.
It is also directly related to the strength of the Rider system.
And sometimes, even from the belt alone, one can see the difference.
Compared to something like the Ryo Belt Buckle, Decade's pink color is incredibly flamboyant.
Generally speaking, there are two signs of a strong individual.
One is to be strange.
The other is to be flamboyant...
Of course, these two words still need to be put in quotation marks.
They don't simply mean their literal sense.
...
Seven Star Lake Park.
This is a relatively lively park in the city, with lush trees and a beautiful environment. Many people like to come here for a stroll when they have free time, especially in the evening, when there are many pedestrians.
The gentle breeze rustled the leaves, and waves rippled on the lake.
In the sweltering summer, it brought a hint of coolness.
For some reason, this summer is exceptionally hot.
Chen Ran's grandmother bought some groceries and was heading home.
Today, her grandson Chen Ran's college entrance examination was over.
She went to buy some groceries.
She would cook a delicious meal tonight to reward her good grandson.
Grandma's cooking is very good.
And...
It's not just for these two or three days of the college entrance examination; she cooks very rich meals every day.
She's afraid Chen Ran won't eat enough or eat well.
There's a hunger known as "Grandma thinks you're hungry."
Logically speaking.
If Chen Ran wasn't naturally gifted and couldn't gain weight no matter how much he ate, he would have become a fat person long ago.
I wonder if gaining weight would affect Decade's transformation.
I dare not ask, and I dare not say!
Because of the hot weather, it hadn't cooled down yet.
There were not many people in the park at this time, only a few scattered individuals sitting under the pavilions and in the shade of the trees.
"No! Don't come closer!"
Suddenly.
A terrified scream echoed.
It was a little girl, about ten years old.
Her clothes were dirty, but her eyes were clear.
At this moment, she was extremely scared and panicked.
In front of her was a monster.
"Mon... Monster!"
"Run!"
"Kamen Rider! Where is Kamen Rider!"
The few passersby in Seven Star Lake Park, who initially wanted to "watch the show" and see what was happening, were stunned when they looked over and saw a terrifying creature.
It looked like a moth.
It held a sword of mottled colors in its right hand.
It was generated from its own body tissues.
The Moth Fangire!
If one had researched the monsters invading this world, they would recognize the type of monster.
Unfortunately, the people here only recognized it as a monster and could not clearly identify its form.
One by one, they fled in terror.
As for the issue of rescuing the little girl...
They didn't even consider it!
They weren't Kamen Riders.
Self-preservation was the best option!
It was clear that the Moth Fangire was targeting the girl. By fleeing immediately, they could also avoid unnecessary trouble.
But there was one person who didn't leave—
Chen Ran's grandmother!
She held her breath and walked in front of the little girl, shielding her behind her.
The Moth Fangire paused upon seeing this.
This old human woman...
Can't she see the situation?
The Fangire tribe possessed intelligence and could transform into human form, having human forms, similar to the Gurongi and Orphnochs, and different from the mimicry after the Worm's killings.
Being rational, he was reluctant to harm a defenseless old human.
He spoke in a cold voice, "Move aside! This is a matter for us Fangire, don't force me to kill you too!"
Grandma remained unmoved.
Her eyes were resolute.
The Moth Fangire became furious.
'There's no choice, I have to act...'
He thought to himself.
After all, he couldn't stay in human society for long, and his mission was only to take the girl, who was a half-human, half-Fangire, back for judgment. If he lingered too long, it would be troublesome if the Kamen Riders stationed in Jiudu arrived for reinforcement.
This mission could not afford any mistakes.
He raised his right hand, his sword vibrating.
Just then.
A series of gunshots rang out—
Bang! Bang!
...
Everything is done. Restoration time is tomorrow, tomorrow.
