At night, the victory team's headquarters base.

"Steel Mask Man? Urban legend?"

Xincheng, who was on duty, was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Ye Rui next to him with a puzzled expression.

"When did that guy Da Gu start to listen to such rumors?"

Ye Rui scratched the back of his head in annoyance, and Ye Rui expressed the same confusion.

"I don't know. Anyway, the message he gave me in the morning was to ask me to pay attention to whether the so-called 'steel masked man' would appear tonight."

Although he didn't believe in the urban legend without any reason, Ye Rui's professionalism made him believe the Dagudu dialect.

Just thinking about the ghost-like characteristics of the "Steel Mask Man", Ye Rui sincerely hoped that this urban legend was false.

Yes, Ye Rui, a genius boy who has always believed in science, is actually an adolescent boy who is very afraid of ghosts.

Let alone weird urban legends like "Steel Mask Man", Ye Rui usually doesn't even dare to watch horror movies alone.

"That guy Dagu is really asking you to investigate such a thing..."

Xincheng shook his head in surprise, then stared at Ye Rui with a strange expression and teased.

"Has he forgotten that you have always been afraid of ghosts?"

In an instant, like a cat whose tail was stepped on, Ye Rui immediately stood up and retorted.

"Who said I'm afraid of ghosts?"

"I just have the most basic skepticism towards unscientific things!"

"And you have the nerve to tell me that when we visited the haunted house last time, weren't you yourself so frightened that your face turned pale?"

"Steel Mask Man...does such an unscientific thing really exist?"

Walking with Jiaer under the dark city, Kuzuha Jiro's shadow suddenly swelled and made a sound that was almost human.

"Anyone can say this, but it sounds particularly outrageous when you say it."

Staring at his own shadow angrily, Kuzuhajiro clearly saw Jia'er smiling at the side.

"If we want to talk about being unscientific, you are the most unscientific being!"

"Obviously he is a shadow, but he can speak and even move freely without his body."

Ever since Mr. Ayan successfully solved the demolition problem and joined Sixth Avenue, he has become a well-known old naughty boy.

Due to the congeniality, Master Ayan naturally became a lifelong friend with Kuzuha Jiro.

Dare to do anything, dare to teach anything...

Under such circumstances, Kuzuha Jiro learned Master Ayan's unique skill - Shadow Mage, without any barriers.

Activate your own shadow into an independent individual, and place your own magical powers on this shadow.

From this, a shadow mage who belongs only to Kuzuha Jiro was born.

However, unlike Master Ayan's Obik, Kuzuha Jiro's Shadow Mage is not only a talkative, but also likes to question his own decisions.

Especially in front of Jia Er, Kuzuha Jiro's Shadow Master doesn't give any face to the main body at all, and loves to expose the shortcomings of the main body in various ways.

Sometimes Kuzuha Jiro wonders whether this shadow mage is his own shadow mage or Jiaer's shadow mage.

"Uncle Lu said that everything that can be understood in this world can be reduced to the category of 'science'."

"Although my existence is beyond the understanding of ordinary people, it is a very scientific existence in our knowledge system."

"On the contrary, it's the 'steel masked man' you heard about. No matter how you look at it, it is impossible to exist."

Obviously he admired Lu Xuan's words very much, and Shadow Master continued to refute Kuzuha Jiro as always.

"Shut up! If you keep talking, I won't take you out next time!"

Kuzuha Jiro, who couldn't argue, immediately became angry. This scene made Jiaer laugh even more happily.

No matter how many times I see it, Jiaer still finds it very interesting.

After all, the only person in this world who can make Kuzuha Jiro, who is like a demon king, feel so defeated is that besides Mrs. Kyuubi, the only one left is his own shadow mage.

"Oh! My aunt, please stop laughing at this time!"

Covering his head with a headache, Kuzuhajiro suddenly regretted this action.

In order to prove to Dagu that the "Steel Mask Man" is real, the two teammates he brought in were both dragging his feet.

It would be great if Master Ayan was here, he would definitely be interested in this kind of thing.

"Actually... I think Brother Da Gu is quite right..."

Jia'er finally stopped laughing and said in a childish and righteous voice.

"Investigating the 'Metal Mask Man' is a matter for adults, and our actions will only cause more trouble for them."

"Besides, since the 'Metal Mask Man' has not harmed others, why do we have to reveal their true identity?"

Gently tilting her head, Jiaer stared at Kuzuha Jiro with a serious yet cute look.

"I admit that what you said does make sense."

He spread his hands and shrugged. Kuzuha Jiro, who had long been accustomed to Jia'er's personality, suddenly changed his tone and lowered his voice.

"But don't you want Dagu to look at you with admiration?"

Maybe it's because of her past experiences, or maybe it's the influence of Dagu and Sha Ji on her...

At a young age, Jia'er is like a little adult. She considers others in everything and tries her best not to cause trouble to others.

This kind of personality that is completely opposite to Kuzuha Jiro once made people think that it was incredible that these two little guys could become friends.

But only Kuzuha Jiro knew that all this was just an appearance.

The well-behaved and mature behavior shown by Jia'er is actually a manifestation of her fear of being abandoned by others, so she strives to cater to them.

In essence, the real Kia is as lawless as Kuzuha Jiro.

Because Kuzuha Jiro never believed that a human being who could control the power of darkness so skillfully could be an innocent little girl.

"Think about it, once we really find out the truth about the 'Steel Mask Man', will Brother Dagu and the others look at us with admiration?"

"Also, haven't you always wanted to visit Uncle Lu's laboratory?"

"If we confirm the existence of the 'Steel Mask Man', maybe Uncle Lu will really take you to his laboratory?"

It was obvious that he was using a coaxing tone, but Jia'er was surprisingly silent.

As Jiro Kuzuha expected, deep in Jia'er's heart, there was always some kind of violent impulse to break the established order.

Jia'er knew that this was not good, and she also knew that once she released this impulse, she would no longer be herself.

Jiaer likes Lu Xuan, likes Da Gu, likes Shaji, likes Mrs. Nine-Tails, and likes everything about Sixth Avenue right now.

So she is willing to suppress the other self hidden deep in her heart for these people.
