While sipping black tea, Miss Hahn said, "I noticed a membrane around the house, is it an enchantment arranged by Miss Magtroyd?" ”

"Just call me Alice. "www.biquge.info I said.

"Okay Miss Alice, my friends call me Melly."

"I can't tell if it has anything to do with Maellubelle Hahn......"

"Aha......"

"Miss Melly saw a film? It's true that I've always placed enchantments around the house to prevent beasts and goblins from invading, but enchantments aren't just a membrane like the name, and enchantments should be ubiquitous within a certain range. ”

"Yes, yes? Although almost completely incomprehensible, I guess Miss Alice meant that there was indeed an enchantment around it? ”

"Not bad."

"Seeing the clearly visible enchantment in your dream is not in vain for a frightening trip to the Dark Forest."

I realized one thing, the enchantment has a definite image in Merry's eyes, this image is represented by a membrane, which I have never heard of, in my eyes, any so-called enchantment other than the defensive barrier composed of mana, can not have a clear appearance, but a kind of conceptual extraction, typical such as the Hakurei Great Enchantment, and it is not really like a pot lid covering Gensokyo on the earth, Instead, the boundaries around Gensokyo are distorted, connected, or copied, extended, or implied in multiple dimensions, and spells or hallucinatory spells are collectively referred to as the Hakurei Great Enchantment, and the isolation between Gensokyo and the outside world is difficult to penetrate through spatial displacement.

The ability to see enchantments as a membrane that should belong to her is actually special enough, and I don't think that's all the embodiment of her special abilities.

"Miss Melly, haven't you really heard of Yakumo Murasaki?"

"No, Yakumo Murasaki? It's a nice name. ”

"Sounds good?"

"It sounds like a lotus seed."

This is the second time I've heard her say "lotus seeds", and it seems that she is a good friend of Miss Melly.

I motioned for her to take care of herself, and continued sewing my dolls on the round table in the living room.

"Hey, Doll-chan, what's your name?" Instead of continuing to sit and drink tea, Melly looked at my room with curiosity, and she eventually pulled me into the aimless drift of Shanghai.

"This kid's name is Shanghai." I paused for a moment to needlework and raised my eyes to her.

Shanghai broke free of Melly's palm and flew to her neck and rubbed it.

"Oops," Miss Melly clasped her hands in front of her chest, and it seemed that she was also a person who had no resistance to cute things, and my favorability of her rose again, "Shanghai Sauce, please call me Melly when we meet for the first time." ”

"Shanghai doesn't speak." I reminded.

"Huh? It's a pity, is Shanghai an ordinary puppet? But I've never seen a flying ordinary, but I can't be sure of it in my dreams. ”

"Of course, Shanghai is not an ordinary puppet, but Shanghai has life." I don't usually like to deal with laymen, but I can't help but remind this girl who resembles (only in appearance) purple, "As for whether you are dreaming or not, I dare not help you answer." ”

"Anyway, as long as it's cute," Melly said, taking Shanghai into her arms, "isn't this a dream?" ”

"I said I can't help you with that."

"But in a girl's fairy tale, there is often an Alice, the last time I saw a rabbit, this time it was Alice's turn."

"Yes...... Is that so? ”

"So I really have a beautiful Alice in my heart," Miss Melly fell into her own fantasy, "and a Shanghai, ah no, and a room full of cute doll sauces, and a lovely house, which is the most unforgettable dream I've had in months." ”

"Huh...... If you don't want to forget, you won't forget. I said, "By the way, isn't Miss Melly hungry?" "I found a very good excuse to stop her from emitting the airwaves.

"Do you get hungry in your dreams? What time is it? Ah, if only the lotus seeds were here at this time. ”

The third time.

"Gensokyo time is about the same as Tokyo time, so Tokyo time is also around 6:30 p.m." I glanced at the grandfather clock and replied.

"At half-past six, if it's a normal time -- when I'm not dreaming -- I'd be eating udon noodles with Renko on Eimae Road or eating sushi at Tsukiji Market."

Fourth.

"So you haven't eaten yet?"

"Theoretically, no."

"Most people don't distinguish dreams from reality so clearly in dreams, and they can't tell the difference, I guess your major is theoretical physics or philosophy."

"Miss Alice is beautiful and intelligent, my main major is theoretical physics, my side job is classical philosophy, and I can tell from the words, do you think I am dreaming?"

"If you think you're dreaming, it's going to be a beautiful dream."

Let's get her some dinner first.

……

"Thank you very much for your hospitality," Melly put down her knife and fork, "ah—it tastes homely." ”

I guess she meant that the vegetable salad I made was not good enough - it was mixed in with some non-poisonous mushrooms that I never ate myself - so I didn't mind it.

After dinner, Miss Melly continued to visit my house unscrupulously, and I thought that she must not be such an unrestrained girl in her daily life, but now she felt that she was dreaming, and it was not surprising that she was more unrestrained in her dreams.

I sat down again and picked up the needle and thread.

Melly hurriedly flipped through the pages with a magic book she had found nowhere, and said, "Why does Miss Alice like dolls?" Ah, even in my dreams, I still have a lot of curiosity, this is a strange and real dream. ”

"I'm a magician who studies how to create consciousness, and I'm also a puppeteer." I did not answer in detail, but put out my professional attributes.

"Magician? Is it the one who looks at these kinds of books to develop wisdom? ”

She flipped the book back to the title page, and then read the only sentence on the title page: "Water is the most good." ”

This book is a common enlightenment textbook for magicians, and I thought about it and said to her, "That sentence should be read as follows: Water is the best." ”

"I know, but I still like to read it that way."

"Know? Ah yes, Miss Melly's side hustle is classical philosophy, and this phrase is one of the earliest recorded philosophical languages. If Miss Melly is interested in the Magician, she can take this book with her, I have many copies of it. "The copy is in my memory.

"But......" she reined in her unrestrained stance, "I'm too much trouble for you." ”

"It's not a hassle for me to give me a book," I don't think so, "a lot of books stolen by a thief are much more valuable than this one, and I'm used to books leaving me." ”

"......," said Melly, turning a few more pages, "I shouldn't have known words in my dreams, but this time the dream was bizarre enough that it wasn't even more surprising to understand words." I would like to say that the contents of this book seem familiar to me, and I may have seen similar modern mutilated editions in the university library. ”

"This is originally the work of ancient philosophers, and the circulation of outsiders is always incomplete due to wars and changes in civilization, etc., and this is regarded as one of the earliest magic books of magicians in magicals."

"Isn't it the work of a philosopher?"

"Once upon a time," I told her, "philosophers—rather inquisitive chatters, magicians, and scientists, were one and the same. ”

"Ha ......"
