Chapter 346 Kamen Rider OOO

Gentarou Kisaragi is heartbroken.

Thanks to Philip's tireless popular science, this high school boy who had just found the feeling of love achieved the life achievement of "love→broken heart" in just one day.

Although Kisaragi Gentarou still doesn't want to believe it.

But after Philip demonstrated the reflex behavior of the cosmic creature "Soru" on the spot with his professional knowledge, Kisaragi Gentaro had to accept the fact that the cute high school girl in front of him could only copy the actions of others.

"how so……!"

Kisaragi Gentarou threw himself on Kawahara and cried, "Haru-san, why didn't you tell me this!"

Kawahara patted his shoulder and said, "I told you that Solu can mimic the appearance of humans on Earth, but he can't communicate normally and his behavior won't be like that of ordinary people."

"But since they are aliens, it's normal that they can't communicate normally with earthlings!" Kisaragi Gentarou shouted angrily.

"…If you want to think so, what else can I do?" Kawahara looked away.

"Ah~"

Kisaragi Gentarou squatted down with his head in his hands, unable to accept it.

But Philip was very interested in his reaction, as if he had found research material. With shining eyes, he came to Kisaragi Gentarou and muttered to him.

"Is this the state of a high school student after a breakup? How interesting~" Philip let out a strange laugh.

"What are you doing, Philip!"

Zuo Xiangtaro, who was standing next to him, couldn't stand it anymore. He pulled Philip away from the crowd, grabbed Kisaragi Gentaro's collar roughly, and then pretended to be serious and spoke to him in a rough voice to comfort him.

“Hey! Even if you’ve been heartbroken, and the person you’ve broken up with is a cosmic creature that doesn’t understand human emotions at all, you should still muster up the courage to accept it! That’s what a tough guy should do!”

“Tough guy…?” Kisaragi Gentarou stared at him blankly with his eyes wide open.

"That's right!"

Shotaro Zuo put his arm around his shoulders, raised his other hand and stroked the brim of his detective hat, looking into the distance with a pretentious expression on his face.

He said with emotion: "No matter what happens, you must remain steadfast in your heart and solve all problems with rationality and ruthlessness. This is the most manly way to live. This is - a tough guy!"

After saying this, Shotaro Sae seemed very satisfied with his speech, and a narcissistic smile that was not so tough appeared on his face involuntarily.

And Kisaragi Gentaro seemed to have been inspired. His sad expression slowly subsided. He lowered his head thoughtfully and clenched his fists.

"I understand!"

With a determined look, Kisaragi Gentarou turned to look at the space creature girl next to him and shouted, "A man should face his own heart with dignity!"

Misaki Nadeshiko tilted her head with a puzzled expression and repeated his words: "Inner heart?"

"Yes! Inside me...I...I..."

Kisaragi Gentarou looked at her seriously, his heart pounding wildly, but after seeing her performance, his mood that had originally cheered up, the words he wanted to say were suddenly stuck in his throat.

Seeing this, Shotaro Zuo, who was standing next to him, immediately encouraged him: "Don't back down! Act like a tough guy!"

After saying this, Kisaragi Gentarou took a deep breath and his eyes became firm again.

He walked straight up and held Misaki Nadeshiko's shoulders. The two of them looked at each other's faces, but compared to the latter's always indifferent reaction, Kisaragi Gentarou's fingers were even trembling slightly.

“Nadeshiko! I…even if you are a cosmic life form, even if you don’t understand human emotions at all, I still want to establish a passionate relationship with you that goes beyond friendship!”

Kisaragi Gentaro became more and more excited as he spoke, his eyes becoming completely bright and hot as he stared closely at the high school girl in front of him.

Misaki Nadeshiko seemed stunned for a moment, still looking at him with her head slightly tilted.

Those big, flickering eyes didn't blink at all, as if they were carefully recording his behavior at the moment, or as if they were just simulating the reactions of the human body.

Kisaragi Gentarou took another deep breath.

"I can't ignore this feeling. I like you! Nadeshiko, I like you!"

After shouting this, Kisaragi Gentarou closed his eyes tightly, not daring to look at the girl's reaction. He couldn't tell whether he was worried that she would do the same cold reflex behavior, or was expecting her to do the same thing.

But the next moment, a warm and soft body suddenly jumped into his arms, just like the feeling he had when he hugged the other person for the first time.

Kisaragi Gentarou was startled and opened his eyes.

Misaki Nadeshiko opened her arms and hugged him, pressing her face against Kisaragi Gentarou's chest, and a soft and sweet voice rang out.

"Thank you, Gentarou."

"..."

Kisaragi Gentarou was stunned.

This shouldn't be a reflex behavior, right?

While he was stunned, Shotaro Zuo clenched his fist and made a gesture even more excitedly than he did, with a proud smile on his face.

Philip's voice and figure approached were heard next to him.

"Oh~ This shouldn't be possible, this——"

"Shut up, Philip!"

Shotaro Zuo quickly pulled back Philip who wanted to go forward to study the two of them, and covered his uncovered mouth tightly.

Lest this guy continue to suppress high school romances.

A tough-guy half-baked detective, he actually believes in human emotions more than being cold and rational.

Kawahara also said: "In fact, Solu can continue to evolve. Since it has learned and imitated human emotions, it will sooner or later be infected by the complex emotions of humans."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Philip struggled to speak beside him.

Kawahara smiled upon hearing this and said, "This kind of miracle does exist in humans. Isn't Shotaro Sae a good example? You've seen it during the time you've been W, right?"

"Um..."

"After all, you have been digitized by the Earth, so you don't quite understand the complex emotions of humans. Instead of staying in the Earth Library to read those theoretical knowledge, it is better to experience them more personally."

"what?"

The two of them had a smooth conversation, but Shotaro Zuo, who was standing next to them, looked confused and subconsciously loosened his hand that was covering Philip.

Philip then stroked his chin and said, "Of course I know that... But even if humans have rich emotions, it is incredible to give intelligence to non-intelligent cosmic creatures."

Shotaro Zuo heard it clearly this time, but he looked around at Philip and Kawahara even more suspiciously.

So did Philip speak before?

Is he hallucinating?

Kawahara looked at the two people over there, his eyes slightly dark: "So making the impossible future possible is also an infinite possibility of the world..."

Philip looked at him with a slightly raised brow.

With a puzzled look on his face, Shotaro Zuo stretched out his hand to try to interrupt the conversation: "Wait, I said you just...?"

He even looked at Kawahara's waist with suspicion.

Then I confirmed that the other party did not have a W drive.

As the other side of W, Shotaro Sae can communicate with Philip telepathically after wearing the W driver, but how did these two people do it just now?
However, neither of them paid any attention to him. Philip just suddenly turned his head and looked towards the end of the road with a smile on his face.

"The last person has arrived."

“…That guy?” Shotaro Zuo subconsciously looked over there.

A black and orange heavily loaded motorcycle drove over from afar. The man was wearing ethnic clothing. After taking off his motorcycle helmet, a young and steady face was revealed.

Kawahara's eyes moved slightly when he saw him.

"Sorry! I'm late. Here... Has the battle already started?"

As the young man spoke, he turned his head and looked around, looking in doubt at the ruins of a building on the side that was at least the size of two football fields.

Shotaro raised his hand and said, "O~ We just arrived too. As for this place, I don't know the details, but it must have been created by this guy."

He pointed at Kawahara next to him.

The young man looked in the direction of his gaze, his clear eyes seemed to light up slightly, then he nodded and smiled: "I am Hino Eiji, Kamen Rider OOO!"

"Kawahara." Kawahara nodded and replied.

"You should be the person Philip was talking about. I heard that you already have a way to deal with Consortium X? Sorry, I met a junior on the way here, so I was delayed a little." said Hino Eiji.

"What method? How come I don't know anything about it?"

Shotaro Zuo couldn't help but speak out in annoyance.

After dealing with the smuggling team of Consortium X, before Shotaro Zuo could return to W Base, he was informed by Philip to join forces with other Kamen Riders to deal with Consortium X.

Then he was asked to contact Kamen Rider OOO, with whom he had communicated before, and was asked to come to this place.

But when did Philip communicate with Eiji Hino?

Wasn't he the one who communicated?!

Hino Eiji waved his hand and said, "No, it's not important. What happened to Gentarou?"

He pointed with a puzzled look on his face at Kisaragi Gentarou who was giggling with a girl not far away.

That guy didn't even notice he was coming.

And she smiles so weirdly...

Not long after Gentaro Kisaragi transferred to Amanokawa Academy, he accidentally met Kamen Rider OOO in an incident, which meant that he had become friends with Eiji Hino.

Philip rubbed his chin with interest: "It's really interesting, is this the state of high school students from broken love to reconciliation? Is this considered passionate love now?"

Kawahara hesitated, "...It's only been a day, so it can't go that fast."

"Of course a man's love should be so passionate!" Zuo Xiangtaro added subconsciously.

"I see, so you're in love!"

Hearing the answer from their words, Hino Eiji nodded in understanding, and then suddenly realized: "But should we go after Consortium X now? Hey... Gentaro!"

Although Hino Eiji had no intention of disturbing their passionate love, due to the crisis of Foundation X, he had no choice but to rush forward and forcibly separate the two people who were hugging each other.

Kisaragi Gentarou was stunned for a moment and then turned around to look.

"Eh? OOO? You're here too!"

"Long time no see, Gentaro. We are going to chase Consortium X now. Do you want to join us?" Hino Eiji said seriously.

"Of course!"

Ruzuki Gentarou immediately became excited and agreed.

Then he turned around again, gently placed Misaki Nadeshiko aside and said, "Ndeshiko, wait for me at Amanokawa."

But Kawahara's voice followed closely: "No, she wants to follow us."

Kisaragi Gentarou was stunned for a moment and turned to look at him: "Nadeshiko, are you going to follow us to find Consortium X? But those people are chasing Nadeshiko now, it's too dangerous to follow them!"

Kawahara crossed his arms and said leisurely: "Then leaving her in Amanokawa will lead to two results. One, Amanokawa will be attacked by the Constellation Apostles; two, Amanokawa will be attacked by people sent by Consortium X. You choose one?"

Kisaragi Gentarou: "..."

Philip also laughed at this time: "Because Consortium X's target is her, it doesn't matter whether we take her with us or not."

But if you bring it with you, it can not only protect you, but also prevent you from encountering unexpected disasters in other places.

……

There was no doubt about the final arrangement.

Everyone set off together.

Misaki Nadeshiko sat in the back seat of the Mechanical Sky-High, and Kisaragi Gentarou solemnly promised her: "I will definitely protect you!"

Philip had already found out the location of Consortium X through searching the "Earth Library".

In addition to discovering that Kamen Rider OOO was also attacked by Consortium X and contacting Hino Eiji, he also discovered another interesting thing.

"Rem Konaki, a member of Consortium X, is the leader of a team responsible for developing unknown energy. After Soru fell to Earth with a meteorite, he discovered the plastic cosmic energy contained in the cells of this type of organism, so he took the lead in this matter."

Philip, who was sitting on the back of W's motorcycle, holding a book in one hand, said, "But Connacki actually betrayed Consortium X."

On the surface, Connacki worked diligently and did all this in order to allow Consortium X to control the world's energy.

But in fact, Connaughty is using the power of Foundation X to collect props for himself, and then integrating those powers with himself to become a super galactic king who can dominate the universe!

"His research has turned humans into a kind of 'super-evolved life form', and Connacki himself is one of them. This powerful physique allows him to combine the power of the 'core coin' and the 'astronomical switch'." Philip said.

"No wonder Consortium X showed up at that time and took away the future core coins." Hino Eiji thought thoughtfully.

"That's right. As long as he transforms the "Solu" that can control the energy of the universe into an astronomical switch, and adds the future core coin that transcends time and space, and obtains these two powers at the same time, I'm afraid no one in this world can stop him."

Phillip made the matter sound as if it was very serious, but in fact his expression was extremely calm.

After all, the point is coin + switch.

And now Misaki Nadeshiko has not turned into a switch yet, even if Konaki has taken away the core coin of the future, it is not that serious yet.

As for why Kamen Rider W was also involved in this matter, it was simply because Consortium X brought "Solu" through Fuuto, and Shotaro Sa noticed the problem and chased after them.

After a few people had sorted out the situation, a huge helipad appeared in front of the road.

From a distance, they could see a huge spaceship-like spaceship parked on the wide plain.

"That's Consortium X?"

Kisaragi Gentarou couldn't help but speak out.

Philip poked his head out to take a look. "It's just the base of operations for Connacki's research team. The people in their team have long been brainwashed by the "super-evolved life form" to serve him alone. I'm afraid that the people at Consortium X don't know about this yet."

"Then our goal is to destroy this base and take back all the core coins, right?" said Kisaragi Gentarou excitedly.

"You could say..."

Philip said without comment, his eyes drifting to the Ultimate Chaser driving beside him, and happened to meet Kawahara's eyes who was looking over at the same time.

Then the next moment, Kamen Rider OOO's "Drive Sales Number" suddenly inserted itself between the two motorcycles.

Hino Eiji looked around and said, "In that case, let me test them first!"

His gaze finally fell on Kawahara.
