Tomari goes over to the group who are slightly defensive but wait to see just who was coming, as soon as they saw the belt they knew it was their fellow Rider, though the fact he was in a police uniform told them that even if he wasn't that he was probably going to do something in regards to police duties, they were a big group after all

"Tomari Shinnosuke, Drive"

They quickly introduce him to who they were and informed him that he was dealing with an unconscious Rider

"What I don't get is how he's here when we saw him die. I bared him to his final resting place myself"

"That's something we're going to have to ask Kazami, we're also going to have to go over that battle again even if we don't like it"

"Yuki-san that's part of the reason why you gave that cover story isn't it?"

"Indeed it is"

"We do need to discuss the fight because that might give us answers as to how we thought V3 was dead when in reality he wasn't"

"I also need to question him when he's more aware of his surroundings to see how he escaped, it might be important later on"

All of a sudden though everyone had issues moving, it was as if the gravity had increased by ten fold

"This is..."

Tomari suddenly changed into Drive and fought off a monster, afterwords everyone could move correctly again which by that time Tomari was back in civilian form

"That would be slowdown, without special cars you can't move fast enough to dodge attacks or debris"

"Looks like you're on your own then"

"For now, but once the enemy is defeated if trouble comes we can work together"

"Why did people's phone's beep afterwords?"

"That's an alert, the police call it a Density Shift...or at least my unit does"

"We still need to discover how we were tricked"

So everyone goes over the battle out loud and that's when Shinnosuke realizes what happened

"He was separated long enough for a double to take his place"

"That would do it, but did he escape on his own or let go?"

"We're also going to have to figure out how to explain the mistake once V3 returns to action"

"And our new enemies"

"I can't help I'm afraid, I have Roidmudes to deal with first"

Suddenly Shinnosuke's phone went off and he answered it

"Tomari here...what? When did this happen?...I see...have you tried...security footage?...okay I'll be there soon"

He hangs up

"Kazami Shiro has been abducted, it happened during slowdown, the hospital decided to do a check just in case and that's when it was discovered. I have to go and see if there's any clue that can help us"

Tomari leaves while the other Riders worry about their comrade, but they trusted Tomari as a fellow Rider and knew he would tell them when he had any clues, in the meantime they decided to try and figure out who was buried instead of V3

"Maybe Philip and I can find out more back home"

"So will I"

"Sorry Terui but I need you here with the other Riders"

"What for?"

"Easy, you can call us with any additional clues you might find from the actual scene instead of from Philip's room"

"You have a point, plus if need be I can liaison with the local police"

"Though they might initially question your credentials"

"Doesn't matter, easily confirmed by Fuuto police"

"True enough, have any messages for Akiko?"

"Tell her I'll be home after we figure out the V3 mystery"

"Got it"

The two of them left and with one look Terui knew they were asking him a question

"They call themselves the two in one detective, just like they're the two in one Kamen Rider, except for the Fang/Joker combination Hidari is the main body for Double except when they become Xtreme for whatever reason. Hidari gives Philip the clues and Philip figures things out from the planetary library he has in his head for reasons I am not getting into. Hidari wasn't the same for a while"

"What for?"

"Philip was gone for a year, he told everyone that he was traveling abroad but that was a lie, he actually sacrificed himself to save his sister with Hidari's help. See Philip was originally Sonozaki Raito but he died when he was young, becoming one with the planet. He was recreated and became Philip and that's what we all call him even after finding out his true name because to us...to us he's always been Philip. When the double driver is on they can communicate telepathically otherwise they each have a phone where Hidari gives Philip the clue and then Philip helps figure out the answer. There's more to the story though that I am not telling without them here, it's pretty personal, they call it Begins Night"

"So because of his detective abilities..."

"They'll go back to Fuuto ask their informants about anything they can think of plus use Philip as a library to figure things out themselves and if I find anything that will help narrow down key words I will tell them as well"

"Key words?"

"Yes Philip searches through his library through key words to narrow down the results"

"Earlier you said Philip died, how did he come back?"

"His one remaining sister, though it took a year for him to return after she found out about Philip sacrificing himself, unintentionally because I was going to kill her for using her Dopant powers and almost wanting to destroy the city when Hidari got in front of me and mentioned Philip's sacrifice. After that she disappeared and when Philip returned that's when we discovered her Gaia Impact was to give Philip a body"

"I think I get it, for now let's head back to the private property, Hidari, Philip and Tomari will contact us if they find anything"

They go back to the property Kazami Shiro bought a long time ago for if the Kamen Riders died in the line of duty, he even had a place for Taki Kazuya who while not a Rider was a huge ally to the original two Kamen Riders
