Kamen Rider: Damn! I'm surrounded by beauties

The door to Yixing Film and Television Company was pushed open.

The sunlight was excessively bright, shining on Gu Yi's face, yet it couldn't dispel the pale weariness.

He felt like a rag doll with all its cotton wool removed, and with every step he took, his feet felt like they were filled with lead.

Unaware that his upper body was still exhausted from last night's tug-of-war with his inner darkness, he hadn't recovered even after a night's sleep.

Perhaps we really shouldn't sleep outdoors so casually.

"Good morning, Mr. Gu."

"morning."

Gu Yi forced a smile as he responded to the receptionist's greeting.

He doesn't even remember how he walked into the office.

Sitting in his swivel chair, he stared blankly at the computer screen. The words in the script crawled around like ants, and Ji Yanyu's desperate eyes from last night kept flashing back in his mind.

That feeling of powerlessness was suffocating.

A day's work felt like chewing wax.

To avoid arousing suspicion, he forced himself to stay upright with several extra-strong Americanos. Whenever someone approached, he would immediately straighten his back and put on an energetic and spirited appearance.

Then whenever he had free time, he would lie down and sleep.

Finally it was time to get off work.

The setting sun cast long shadows of the office building.

Gu Yi sat on a bench in the small garden downstairs, pressing his head to rest.

"Brother Gu Yi?"

A clear yet timid call came from behind.

Gu Yi turned around and saw Xiao Lu standing not far away. The setting sun shone on her clean little face, making the fine hairs clearly visible, and her eyes were full of worry.

"Xiao Lu..."

Gu Yi straightened up, trying to hide it.

"Why haven't you left yet?"

Xiao Lu strode over, looked him up and down, her brows furrowed tightly:

"Brother Gu Yi, you look terrible... Are you sick? Or... is it because of that Gurongi?"

"No, I just didn't sleep well yesterday." Gu Yi waved his hand, wanting to laugh, but found that his facial muscles were too stiff to obey him. "Don't worry, I'll be fine after a good night's sleep."

"Liar."

Xiao Lu bit her lip, her voice soft but her tone firm.

"You're walking unsteadily. Are you feeling unwell? Are your muscles sore?"

“A little bit…”

"Then let me give you a massage!" Xiao Lu's eyes lit up.

"I've learned a little massage technique, it's very relaxing."

"No need, it's too public..."

Gu Yi instinctively refused. What would people say if word got out that a female subordinate was giving her boss a massage?

"There's nobody here!"

Without saying a word, Xiao Lu grabbed Gu Yi's arm and pressed him onto the bench.

"Brother Gu Yi, sit down! Just a few presses, it'll be quick."

Those little hands were quite strong, and Gu Yi, in his current state, couldn't resist, so he could only sit down helplessly.

"Okay, just a few minutes."

Xiao Lu went around behind him and put her hands on his shoulders.

At first, Gu Yi's body was tense. But as Xiao Lu's thumb massaged, a warm and just-right force penetrated into his stiff trapezius muscles.

"hiss……"

Gu Yi couldn't help but let out a soft hum.

That tingling sensation spread along my spine, as if gently untying the knots in my muscles and bones. Xiao Lu's technique was indeed professional, neither too light nor too heavy, and each press precisely located the most sore acupoints.

"Is it very hard?"

Xiao Lu's voice was soft, tinged with a hint of heartache.

"Brother Gu Yi, the muscles on your back are like rocks. Just how much are you carrying on your back...?"

"There's nothing I can do. Life forces me to do that."

Gu Yi closed his eyes, and his tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed a little.

"Thank you, Xiao Lu, it really makes me feel much better."

"As long as you're comfortable."

Xiao Lu seemed very happy to be able to help, and she worked even harder.

"Tell me if you get tired in the future, and I'll help you anytime..."

In this warm and healing moment.

Without warning, a crack appeared in the sky.

Four eerie orbs of light fell like meteors, moving at an astonishing speed, hurtling straight toward Gu Yi!

"What!!"

Gu Yi suddenly opened his eyes, instinctively wanting to dodge, but that damned feeling of exhaustion made him a beat slower.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Four orbs of light struck different parts of his chest and body in succession.

"Uh!"

Gu Yi convulsed violently, as if he had been struck by a high-voltage electric shock. His eyes rolled back instantly, and he slid straight off the bench, crashing onto the lawn.

"Brother Gu Yi!"

Xiao Lu screamed in fright, her hand freezing in mid-air before she could finish pressing the button.

"Brother Gu Yi, what's wrong?! Don't scare me!"

She hurriedly knelt down to help him.

The "Gu Yi" on the ground suddenly stopped moving.

One second later.

He suddenly sprang up.

It really "bounces" up, with exaggerated movements like a spring-like person.

Gu Yi's original gentle and weary demeanor had completely vanished.

He had one foot on the bench, his hands in his pockets, and his hair had turned a flamboyant fiery red at a speed visible to the naked eye, standing on end.

He tilted his head, a savage grin spreading across his face, and roared at Xiao Lu, who was still in a daze:

Hey! That woman!

Xiao Lu was so frightened that she sat down on the ground with a thud, trembling.

"Gu...Gu Yi-ge?"

"Cut the nonsense!"

Gu Yi, now a "red-haired thug," waved his hand impatiently, his voice becoming rough and hoarse.

"Where is that bastard Kuuga? Tell him to get out here! I'm going to settle this score with him!"

"Empty...empty me?"

Xiao Lu's mind went blank; she couldn't comprehend the situation at all. "Brother Gu Yi, what are you talking about...aren't you just..."

"What a mess!"

Just as the red-haired Gu Yi was about to lose his temper, he suddenly shuddered.

"Boom~~"

A comical sound effect, like a bubble bursting, rang out.

Gu Yi suddenly spun around, his legs, which had been spread apart, instantly came together, and his posture became elegant and upright, with a suit appearing on his body.

His red hair instantly turned a deep, dark blue, falling smoothly to his ears. He straightened his tie and even pulled out a pair of gold-rimmed glasses from somewhere and put them on.

The previous irritability had vanished, replaced by an aura of "refined scoundrel" that sent chills down one's spine.

"Oh dear, senior, really."

Gu Yi, with his blue hair, pushed up his glasses, his voice becoming magnetic and gentle, even carrying a hint of provocation.

He bent down, extended a hand, and very gentlemanly helped Xiao Lu up from the ground.

"How can you yell at such a lovely lady? That's not gentlemanly behavior."

Xiao Lu stared blankly at the familiar yet unfamiliar face, her hand being held by the other person, and she even felt the other person's fingers gently stroking the back of her hand.

"Were you scared, my little fish?"

Blue-haired Gu Yi casually put his arm around Xiao Lu's waist, his eyes fixed on her with a piercing gaze.

"Don't be afraid, we just have some private matters to discuss with this body..."

"You...let me go!"

Xiao Lu's face turned bright red as she struggled frantically.

She would have been very happy to be treated like this by Gu Yi normally, but now she felt something was very wrong.

"Boom!"

A muffled taiko drum sound broke the ambiguous atmosphere.

Gu Yi's body stiffened again, and then his muscles suddenly swelled up, turning his suit into ancient costume.

He shoved Xiao Lu aside, stomped his feet heavily on the ground, and assumed a standard sumo starting stance.

Her hair turned golden, shimmering in the sunset.

"I'm talking to you two!"

The blond-haired Gu Yi spoke in a deep, resonant voice, as deep as a large bell, carrying a strong Kansai accent.

"If you're looking for me, then this body must be possessed by us, right? How are we supposed to question you then? Isn't this a contradiction?"

As he spoke, he slapped his thigh hard with his palm, making a "slap slap" sound.

"And... I really want to cry!"

Xiao Lu was completely stunned. She huddled in the corner of the bench, tears welling up in her eyes.

"What is this... is it a ghost possession? Brother Gu Yi, don't scare me..."

"If you move, hit again! If you move, hit again!"

Suddenly, a burst of highly rhythmic hip-hop music started playing.

Gu Yi's posture changed abruptly again.

He started wildly twisting his body on the grass, doing street dance moves. His hair instantly turned bright purple, and he even added a playful highlight. His clothes changed into hip-hop attire.

"Yeah! Yeah! Why don't we just take out Kong? Take him out! Take him out!"

As the purple-haired Gu Yi spun upside down, he let out a childlike, innocent yet cruel laugh, then stood still and looked at himself with a puzzled expression.

"But how do I kill it if it's possessed? Never mind, let's beat it up first! Can we fight it? Can we fight it? Your answer doesn't matter!!"

Subsequently, Gu Yi's body completely lost control.

Red, blue, yellow, and purple flashed in turn on his hair, and four distinct voices rushed out of the same throat.

"You perverted bastard! Don't use my body to touch women!" (Red)

"Wasn't it you who were rude first, senior?" (Blue)

"Don't forget the important matter!" (Huang)

"Ugh, this is so annoying! Can we even fight?!" (Purple)

"Shut up! All of you, shut up!" (Red)

Gu Yi was like a broken traffic light, changing poses erratically on the grass. One moment he was throwing a punch, the next he was adjusting his tie, then he was doing a sumo squat, and then he started doing a robotic dance.

As Xiao Lu watched this scene, worry finally overcame fear.

"Brother Gu Yi!!"

She rushed forward, crying and screaming, trying to grab Gu Yi's arm.

"Can you hear me? Brother Gu Yi! Cheer up! Don't let these strange things control you! You said you were fighting to protect smiles!"

This cry seemed to pierce through the chaotic layers of consciousness.

Gu Yi, who was frantically "split personality," suddenly stopped what he was doing.

His facial muscles twitched violently, and his originally multicolored hair began to fade rapidly, returning to its original black color.

"Get out of here!!"

Gu Yi let out a roar, a voice that belonged only to him.

Although physically exhausted, his willpower had become exceptionally strong after last night's trial. He wouldn't allow his body to be used as a playground by these inexplicable things!

"Aha!"

Gu Yi suddenly threw a punch, which seemed to shatter some kind of barrier as it hit the air.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Four beams of light were forcibly ejected from Gu Yi's body.

Red, blue, yellow, and purple creatures of bizarre shapes splattered onto the lawn, piling up into a tower of Arhats.
