Chapter 2: Just a passing knight
Just when the man was trying to touch Amamiya Iori, something suddenly made a noise and rolled to his feet.

It was a white baseball.

"baseball?"

The man shifted his gaze to the rolling baseball and was about to bend down to pick it up.

A figure rushed over at an extremely fast speed.

“Wha…what?!”

Before the man could react, a baseball bat hit him on the shoulder and the knife in his hand fell to the ground.

"Who the hell are you, kid? Stop meddling in other people's business!"

The severe pain from his shoulder made the man lose his mind to some extent, and he cursed the "frog" that suddenly rushed up to attack him.

"Be quiet! The police are already at the next station!"

"Frog," or rather, the voice of Shimizumi came from behind a mask of Guatai.

This was also what he prepared in his backpack in advance.

Shimizu Mi had made the worst-case scenario plan from the beginning. If this situation happened and he had to take action, as long as Amamiya Iori didn't recognize him, he would be able to rescue her while minimizing the impact on the ending of the game.

"You bastard, go to hell!"

The man roared and tried to pick up the fruit knife on the ground, but his hand stopped abruptly in mid-air.

This was because the baseball bat fell again and hit him in the face, causing the man to lose consciousness and fall to the ground.

"Ichi, are you okay?" Amemiya Iori's mother rushed over and hugged her.

From the regretful expression, it can be seen that the mother blames herself for not being able to protect her daughter.

"Mom, I'm fine."

While Amamiya Iori was comforting his mother, he kept a wary eye on the man in front of him wearing a Quata mask.

Because she had just been attacked by a gangster, Amamiya Iori was somewhat on guard.

"You are?"

"It's just a Kamen Rider passing by, don't worry about it."

Qing Shuijian spoke out without restraint.

As soon as he said this, he was so embarrassed that he used his toes to dig out a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment and wished he could dig a hole and bury himself in it.

However, the effect doesn't seem to be that bad.

Hearing this, Amamiya Iori let go of the strength in his shoulders and couldn't help but laugh softly.

The familiar gentle smile made Qingshui stunned.

"Well...button your clothes first."

Shimizu accidentally caught a glimpse of the faintly visible Yukiko at the collar of Amamiya Iori's shirt, which had been opened to the second button. He glanced away evasively and motioned for her to button it up.

Seeing Shimizu's shy reaction, Amemiya Iori's smile widened.

After that, as soon as the train arrived at the station, the police arrested the man. Fortunately, neither Amemiya nor her daughter were injured, which was a blessing in disguise.

Time comes the next day.

Due to the train hijacking incident, Shimizu Mi and Amamiya Iori were inevitably kept by the police to take statements and conduct follow-up investigations, so they did not go to school the whole day yesterday.

Fortunately, the people took the statements separately, so Amemiya Iori never got to see Shimizu Ken's true face in the end.

"Please tell me your name..." "Please let me see your face..."

At that time, Amamiya Iori was like a drowning man who saw a piece of driftwood floating over. He reached out his hand to Shimizu Mi. Although he felt a little regretful, he still left there.

How to say it, Shimizu felt from the look in Amemiya Iori's eyes that if he took off the mask at that time, the story would definitely develop in the previous direction.

That was not what he expected.

In this way, Shimizu welcomed the next morning.

On the way to school, the sound of footsteps coming through the clear air made Qingshuijian turn around, and a man and a woman came into his sight.

The two people in sight were looking around, and when they saw Qingshuijian, they took a step closer.

"Good morning, see you."

The first person to say hello was Kondo Yuichi, who gave people a weak impression.

Next was the beautiful girl standing next to him, Amamiya Iori.

"I'm really sorry for being late, Shimizu-kun."

Amamiya Iori held the bag in both hands and bowed slightly to Shimizu to express her apology.

Her long black hair is draped behind her back, like a fairy-tale princess, and her delicate and perfect little face exudes a beauty with a delicate Japanese feel.

In the first week, Shimizu Mi once suspected that the heroines in the anime and comics were all drawn based on her.

But if you think about it carefully, this is originally a virtual game world...

Shimizu Miki and Kondo Yuichi have been close friends for a long time, and later he met Amemiya Iori through him. What's more coincidental is that the three of them were assigned to the same class this year.

However, judging from Amemiya Iori's reaction, she probably hasn't recognized that Shimizu Mi was the person who saved her yesterday.

"It's okay, I just arrived."

Perhaps it was the shadow brought by the train hijacking incident that caused Amamiya Iori to ask everyone to walk to school together today.

As expected, yesterday's incident made the news. Naturally, the mass media could not ignore this matter, and it is not surprising that it was broadcast on TV.

However, it probably won’t spark much discussion.

This is what Qing Shuijian originally thought, but in fact he was totally wrong.

This morning, Shimizu Mitsuki searched the Internet on his mobile phone and found that almost all social platforms and information programs were broadcasting related reports on the train hijacking incident.

The photos of Amamiya Iori during the interview were stunningly beautiful, and all social media were going viral with this beautiful girl.

As a result, she became famous overnight.

Netizens gave her a nickname.

That is……

"A beautiful girl once in three thousand years."

It is said that netizens were moved by Amamiya Iori's pure love and began to search desperately for the Quata Knight who saved her, that is, Shimizu Mi.

Although Shimizu Mi was wearing a school uniform at the time, the most they could do was to guess which school he was a student of. No matter how powerful the online search team was, they would not be able to find the person based on this little bit of information.

"Yuichi, you didn't come to help me at that time, you damned red bean paste!"

Amemiya Iori suddenly mentioned what happened yesterday, with dissatisfaction on his face.
