Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

"Thank you so much for taking care of my daughter during this time." Before the man with slightly narrowed eyes, the parents, along with the girl who bore an 80% resemblance to Hana, all bowed deeply to Ash, offering their sincere gratitude for the doctor who had saved their daughter's (and sister's) life for the second time. "You truly cannot thank Hana enough for your kindness! Okay, Hana, you should thank Dr. Ash as well."

"Oh, oh!" Hua, who seemed a little restrained for some reason, came to her senses when she was mentioned. When she was about to lower her head, Ash held her shoulders in return.

"Yours is unnecessary. I've already received payment elsewhere." Ash, who had been squinting, finally relaxed his brows as he looked at the person bowing towards him. "However, I will accept your gratitude, uncle and aunt."

After all, I have made up my mind that no matter what your problem is, I will cure you.

Although I was reluctant at first, the actual contact felt like there was no sense of hypocrisy... That's great. If this is how things develop, I can accept it.

The serious scene did not last too long. This atmosphere was destined to be unsuitable for such a warm family. Ash was quickly invited to take a seat. The middle-aged man brought out snacks to entertain the guests, and the woman brought tea to everyone.

"I'm sorry to ask you to come in such hot weather. Is black tea all you need?"

"This temperature is nothing to me. Ice cold? I can have that!" Ash naturally took the tea from Nonohana's mother "Nono Sumire" and felt the cool touch on his lips. His eyes naturally drifted over Hana's three family members.

The man sitting opposite her, wearing an apron and with impressive muscles, looking like a good housekeeper, was her father, Nono Moritaro. Her mother, Nono Sumire, who was serving her tea, was also looking at her with a smile on her face. As for the other person, who kept glancing in her direction, and who she thought she had concealed well from him, JD, it must be...

"Hello sister... Doctor Ash, my name is-"

"I know, her name is Kotori, right? Nono Kotori." Ash also remembered "Nono Kotori" who had contacted him on the phone. Hana had praised this precious sister who was admitted to the University of Tokyo in front of him several times, and she cared about her very much.

"Oh, I remember you complaining about the bitterness of the medicine. I'm so sorry about that."

"Really...really, don't mention this kind of thing, Dr. Ash!"

Xiao Niao didn't expect this matter to be brought up, and she was quite embarrassed. She quickly hugged her cheeks. When her wandering eyes moved to her sister who was as stunned as a stone, she immediately remembered something, pulled her aside, apologized, and hid behind a door.

"Wait, Birdie, what are you doing?"

Without answering her sister's question immediately, Xiaoniao secretly glanced at Ash who was having a good chat with his parents on the other side. After looking up and down at the smiling Ash, she began to "torture" her sister in an extremely "serious" tone.

"Sister, tell me the truth, what kind of drug did you give him to make him so obsessed with you?!"

【Extra】Case File 46 Interview with Ash

"Super, super hit!"

Nonoka had never expected to be asked such a question in such a serious manner by her sister, especially the infinite "malicious" suspicion. She felt as if struck by lightning. Her stiff movements and exaggerated expression showed that she was greatly shocked... She looked like she was greatly shocked!

Wait, I'm your sister, right? I'm your real sister, right?! Xiaoniao, how could you doubt me like that?

"Little Bird isn't as well behaved as before. I'm so sad, wuwuwu... I want my cute little sister back who used to be so well behaved and wanted to be like me!"

"That was all so long ago! Okay, sister, stop pretending to be sad." Xiaoniao, who knew her elder sister's character very well, exposed Hua's pretending to cry without hesitation, then turned and pointed towards the living room, causing Hua to look over there as well.

Giving Ash an apologetic smile, Sumire, as a mother, began to explain on behalf of her two daughters who had left the table midway.

"I'm sorry, but Kotori was actually looking forward to meeting Dr. Ash, and she even took some time off to come back." Sumire turned around and saw two pairs of small eyes peering out from the direction the two had disappeared. "She just loves and worries about her sister so much that she wanted to know who was helping Hana. So, when she saw Mr. Ash, she was so excited that she didn't know how to express herself."

"I believe she must be very satisfied with Mr. Ash."

"It's okay, I understand." Ash waved his hand to indicate it wasn't a problem. What she was saying was probably the same excitement he'd felt when he saw the rag that he'd been waiting to see absorb the Shining Heart. I understand, of course I understand!

"Well, I have a request. As Hana's family, can we also get to know Mr. Ash in a little more detail?"

After hearing the mother's pointed questions, the flowers and birds immediately perked up and listened attentively.

"Ah, it's okay, whatever. I'll say whatever I can, and I won't say a word of what I can't."

Although it was a little strange that the patient's family would be so eager to know his personal situation, considering he was just the attending physician...but so what? Feeling the rare warmth and warmth, Ash, after enjoying his iced tea, was in a very good mood and agreed to let them ask any questions.

"So, first of all, could you tell us how old you are?"

"12 years old desu~"

"Hahaha, Mr. Ash really has a childlike heart." Ash, maintaining a faint smile, gave them an extremely unexpected answer, causing everyone, even the two who thought they had hidden it well, to burst out laughing.

"She's 12 years old (suppressing laughter)...But if she's that young, is she still a student?"

"Student... not anymore, but I am a genius scientist, a super pilot, a pursuer of the Mopshi stage, a genius surgeon, and the Kami of the New World!"

"Ah, the last one might not be the one. The Kami of the New World is someone else." Ash, whose blood was inexplicably boiling, quickly calmed down, gently lifted the invisible glasses frame on his nose, and continued to maintain his charming smile. "In short, I am a genius."

"Mr. Ash, such a capable person, have you ever considered working in a large hospital like that?"

"The bigger it is, the more rules it has. I don't like being bound by rules and regulations. A freer style suits me better." Ash leaned back on the sofa, changing to a more comfortable position that was more suitable for the interview, and answered the question naturally.

And if it weren't for this clinic, I wouldn't have met Nonoka, right? I wouldn't have had so much time to plan and find precure.

"Besides, money is just a number to me. It doesn't matter to me whether it's a big hospital or a small hospital."

Well, no need to worry about financial problems, bonus points! The bird beside him nodded repeatedly at the thought.

"What a genius... That's undeniable." Moritaro, who had been silent and just listening, took over the conversation. Thanks to his daughter's advance warning, the two middle-aged men naturally ignored Ash's various questions and spoke: "But Mr. Ash is obviously a doctor, but his muscles look impressive, and his body is quite strong. Do you work out?"

"I've definitely been lately," Ash nodded. After all, maintaining form when there aren't any fights is a real challenge. "Actually, there's a secret cave base beneath my clinic where I train and brush up on my martial arts when I'm free. I've bench-pressed over 600 pounds before (without my cyborg strength), and recently I've been trying to lift 680 pounds. I think I'm almost there."

"I understand it as exercising, right?" The couple looked at each other, smiled and shook their heads. There was nothing they could do, they really couldn't understand. Young people nowadays are so obsessed with keeping up with the trend that they can't even understand the vocabulary. Are they, the old people, out of date?

"Do you have a girlfriend?"

"Hmm..." Ash pondered the question for a moment, then thought of the female friends he had met in his previous world. He then recalled two alien-like pink warriors with wings and a green warrior who could turn invisible. But those were all things from the previous world, so he shook his head. "There were some before, but not now."

"Then may I ask how it's divided? Ah——this is really too much of an intrusion into my privacy, Mr. Ash, you don't have to answer——"

"What's so secretive about that?" Without waiting for Moritaro to correct himself, Ash spoke naturally. "It was basically because I had too many boyfriends to take care of, so we broke up naturally."

"?"x4

Four question marks appeared on the heads of Nono's family at the same time. This time, not only the old ones, but even the children couldn't understand what he was saying.

What's going on? When Mr. Ash said he didn't have a girlfriend, I was a little happy... Should I be nervous and sad now? But it doesn't seem right...

Then there was another series of conversations. After the previous questions and answers that were a bit off the track, the answers gradually returned to the right track. The chat became more and more speculative, and the couple who showed their open admiration for Ash were even more smiling.

"See, that's it," Xiaoniao pouted. Still in her school uniform, she crossed her arms as she stared at her older sister, who was almost shorter than her. "You've always been so clueless. I was afraid you'd say you'd met a good person. I thought you were being tricked... but now it seems so."

"He's handsome, good-natured, and has a good job as a doctor with plenty of money. And most importantly, he cares about you, my sister!" Xiaoniao, her voice growing increasingly agitated, grabbed the bewildered Hua's arms. "I was originally trying to give you some advice, but now there's no need."

"Sister, if you keep being so dull and passive, just let me take charge!"

【Bonus】Case File 47 The Master of Selling Sisters

Ever since she was inexplicably pulled aside by her sister, Hua had completely lost the ability to understand what her sister was saying. However, the last, open and aboveboard declaration of "demand" still shocked her for the whole year.

The softness on her chest began to sway slightly with the movement. Hua struggled to break free from her hand and placed her palm on the shoulder of the person in front of her, her eyes filled with disbelief, shock and trembling.

"Wait, wait, what are you talking about, little bird?!"

Wait, Kotori was just joking, why am I so excited? Dr. Ash is just a kind doctor who's trying to help me...

"So!" Xiao Niao, oblivious to the myriad thoughts running through her sister's mind, seemed to be piercing her sister's heart with her harsh words. She stared into her sister's eyes and spoke word by word. "Sister, you are so slow!"

"Mr. Ash has such great conditions, even I can't help myself. Look at him, sister, and then look at you! You're plain-looking, with a gloomy hairstyle that covers half of your face. You don't have a proper job, and you even had to heal your sick body!"

Following her sister's merciless poke in the back, Hua, who was in great pain, immediately knelt on the ground with tears in her eyes, covering her heart and constantly uttering the catchphrase "super shocking" from her mouth.

"That's too much... Are you really my biological sister?"

Obviously, obviously my other identity is the world-renowned Precure—cure yell! Is there anyone who can compete with me in this matter? Of course, this kind of thing cannot be said out loud...

"It's because I'm your biological child that I'm so worried about you, my helpless older sister!" Nono Kotori looked helplessly at her sister, curled up on the ground with blurry eyes, and sighed in frustration. "Think about all the friends you know. Compared to your long-legged, beautiful blonde, the stylish blue-haired superstar, and the future piano master Emi Ryo-chan, what advantages do you have?"

"He's already tried his best, but you haven't shown any appreciation at all, sister. A man as outstanding as him will definitely be snatched away by a woman who's even better than you!"

"So why did Yu and the others want to take Ash away... And what do you think it was? I should work hard or something..." As her sister spoke word by word, she finally understood what she was talking about and couldn't help but spill the beans. "I... I! I'm not dating him yet."

"..."

As soon as these words came out, Xiaoniao's eyes instantly became dead. She stared at her elder sister with completely lifeless eyes until she began to feel uneasy inside. After groping in her pocket for a while, the girl handed a small pink square to her elder sister.

"What is this...?" Unable to react for a moment, Nonoka rubbed the plastic film in her hands. The light texture finally made her remember something. "H-Hidori, you don't mean to make me..."

After all, she was an adult, and she understood that when a couple was deeply in love, they didn't want to be troubled by the sudden addition of a new life.

"That's right, that's what I mean." Turning back to look at Ash, who seemed to be getting along better with his parents, Xiaoniao explained righteously. "Sister, you're really interested in him, right? Since it hasn't even started yet, you need to hurry up and get him into your hands!"

"Sister, don't you always claim to be the perfect mature woman? If that's the case, then quickly display your mature woman's charm to charm him!"

"Even so..." Hana raised the 001 condom to her crimson face with trembling hands, her brain processor nearly frying from her sister's bluntness. "I do feel for Ash... but this, this is way too early! And you're selling out your own sister like that?!"

"Huh? If my troublesome sister can be sold to someone as reliable as Mr. Ash, then that would be a real profit, okay? Just be happy that you got a good price!"

"That seems to be the case, but...it's such a shock!"

With her raised hand hovering in front of the doorbell, Yakushiin Saaya, who had originally planned to visit her friend's house today, listened to the distinctive cry of Hana coming from the other end of the house. She kept a forced smile on her face and didn't know whether she should press the button.

"Ah~ Is it not the right time to come today?"

Wouldn’t it be better not to disturb Xiaohua today?

"I didn't expect another flower friend to come today. Please forgive me for not welcoming you from afar."

"Well, it was my fault for not telling them. How can I blame my uncle and aunt?" While greeting the Nono family, who she knew somewhat well, Saaya also politely waved to Ash, who was sitting more casually on the sofa. "And Mr. Ash, we meet again."

"Oh." A very rude "Oh" ended the conversation. Ash didn't have a good impression of this uninvited intruder.

After all, almost all of Hua's friends have their own weaknesses, and Ash really can't like someone whose soul doesn't match his or hers, no matter how beautiful their appearance is.

The yellow one was indeed corrected, which was quite surprising. What about the blue and red ones?

"Saiya, long time no see. What's the matter with coming to my house today?"

"I came to see you, mainly." Saaya, always gentle with her friends, reached out and ruffled her pink curls with ease. "And about Yu, both Emi and I will be grateful to you."

"Hey, it's not a big deal~"

Just as Hua was accepting the compliments humbly, Sa Ling took out several invitations from her handbag and placed them in front of everyone.

"Also, in a few days I will be launching the filming of my new movie. I hope everyone can come and support me."

———————The dividing line of the author’s words——————————

Some people may wonder why Xiaoniao is so anxious to sell her sister.

Here we will not use the God's perspective, but actually take a look at the comparison between the two sides through the eyes of Nono Kotori.

The elder sister in Xiaoniao's eyes: She looks ordinary (compared to the beautiful world) and has gloomy bangs covering her eyes. She has no stable job, acts kindly but is silly, is reserved and always hides things, is not good at anything, is never satisfied with what she eats, and is a sickly person.

Ash in Kotori's eyes: He is handsome and a doctor with plenty of money. Although he often speaks in a radio tone, he is actually well-spoken. More importantly, he can not only cure his sister's illness but is also genuinely interested in her.

Xiaoniao only wishes she could strip her sister naked and throw her onto Ash's bed to make things a done deal.jpg

[Bonus] Case File 48: The True Form of Violent Energy

"Oh, Xiaolan, you came here just for this?"

"Xiao-Xiao Lan?"

Ignoring Saya who was stunned by his subtle address, Ash looked over and over at the exquisite invitation in his hand, looking completely uninterested.

After all, movies don't attract a vulgar person like Ash, and he really doesn't have the appreciation for them. For example, those literary and artistic works that are most attractive to the old-fashioned academics and have won many awards... For Ash, are they as interesting as the suit war?

Just when Ash casually decided to cancel the invitation, the title of the movie on the invitation suddenly attracted all his attention.

"New Metal Hero...?"

"Yes, this is 'Neo Metal Heroes,' another masterpiece following director Hideaki Anno's 'New Kamen Rider.' Mr. Ash, as you know, the theme of masked heroes is a hot topic right now because of the appearance of Mr. Time Flame."

Ash has learned about the development of his favorite special effects industry in this world, and the general direction is still the same as in his own world. The only difference is that the source of the power of "time fire" he uses - the shadow of the Super Sentai has never appeared in this world. As a replacement, the Metal Heroes series has continued and been filmed to this day.

So, I haven’t seen this movie yet!

Oops, I'm interested now. I really have to watch this.

"I know. Since you're Hana's friend, I, Ash, will definitely go and help out!"

Ash nodded his head and agreed solemnly, his anticipation high, his mind full of thoughts about what kind of movie he would be able to see at the premiere.

"If you like it, Mr. Ash, I'll be happy. I've reserved the best seats for you and Hana—haha."

As she was talking, Sa Ling's eyelids suddenly seemed to lose their support and wanted to close. Her body was swaying and was about to fall to one side. Fortunately, Hua, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, supported her and prevented her from falling directly on the sofa.

Some frightened flowers cast inquiring glances at Ash, the doctor. Ash naturally noticed that something was wrong with her at once, but he just didn't say anything.

"It seems that overwork has caused the body to become unbalanced. You have had similar symptoms before."

"It's okay, I'll just sit for a while." Sa Ling propped up her body that was lying on Hua's shoulder, but the comforting words she said could not make Hua feel at ease at all.

"Saaya...?"

The parents and sister quietly handed this space to three familiar people under the pretext of buying snacks. This also gave Hana space to talk to Saaya alone. As a Pretty Cure, her sensitivity to the energy of tomorrow, which symbolizes the vibrant future of the human heart, allowed her to sense that the other person's heart was not as perfect as her appearance. Her hand quietly rested on her friend's palm again.
