9 April 2000

“…………”

What's going on and why?

I should be dead, so what's going on with me at the moment.

Lying quietly in the basement of an unknown building.

I watched as the exposed metal pipes coiled overhead.

It was as if something was fighting in my body, and the intense pain was constantly attacking my nerves.

But I'm still breathing, and my heart is still beating.

I didn't die, I didn't become a vampire.

It was as if a knife was scraping my nerves, and I lost all the sensations in my limbs.

Although the pain distorted my expression completely, I still have to say.

-- It's good to be alive.

After getting up from the ground, I found that there was a thick cushion under me, which must have been made by my senior sister.

Although the sharp pain coming from the inside of the body seems to be completely broken.

But I still reluctantly moved my body, and moved towards the door.

At this time, I suddenly wanted to meet people, no matter who they were.

- I want to talk to people.

It took me some time to climb out of the doorway and find that the sun was now setting.

I didn't think I had been asleep for less than half a day before I woke up.

Okay, let's go home and take a look first, why don't you write a suicide note.

At this moment, I felt guilty about the casual death last night, and walked to the nearby subway station.

At this moment, I was like a rag, standing in front of the platform, and finally maintained a little dignity.

This is a subway station that I have never been to, and the neighborhood is full of students from that black bone high school with a very bad school spirit.

But I, who had just passed with death, had nothing to fear.

I didn't expect to meet acquaintances here.

Katsu Kato, I was able to meet this childhood friend.

I really don't know what to say.

Therefore, it is better to pretend not to see it and ignore it.

This will reduce your own troubles, right?

Kato has changed a lot in the past few years, and he has grown more than a head taller than me.

is so tall, coupled with a decent appearance and dignified temperament, it must be very popular with girls, right?

It's infuriating – or rather, enviable.

Looking at the school uniform he was wearing, it seemed to be from that school.

Seeing that he looks like a bad boy now, he must be in the limelight?

Just thinking about it, soon the tram will come.

Looking at the arrival time displayed on the timetable on one side, it was less than three minutes.

Hurry up and get in the car, hurry up and part ways with Kato—I thought.

At this moment, a drunken homeless man stumbled over.

I looked bored at the foul smelling figure.

If it had been me, I would have cursed him hard in my heart.

But now I don't have that interest anymore.

The homeless man fell off the platform as I had imagined, and even fell asleep on the tracks.

Wait, why is there such an uncomfortable feeling coming from me?

Squinting at it, Kato's breathing was noticeably shorter.

And there was an expression on his face that he was choosing something.

God, he's not going to do that, is he?

I know all too well what that expression represents.

Don't pull me, I've just escaped!

I prayed silently in a cold sweat in my heart.

As expected, Kato put his bag down and jumped off the platform.

Walked up to the homeless man and picked up his dirty body.

But it was clear that at the age of fifteen, even if he was tall and tall, he did not have the strength to lift a grown man.

So he looked up and looked around for someone who could help him.

This gaze was so terrifying that I could already see the smile of death in it.

-- It's less than two minutes before the train arrives, so it's too late.

I looked away, deliberately not making eye contact with Kato's expectation.

"Ahh You're Ah Ji, right? ”

But his cry of joy still echoed in my mind so clearly against my will.

I can't help but think of the memories of when Kato and a few friends who couldn't remember their looks went around causing trouble.

…… By the time I got back to reality, I had jumped off the platform and was working with Kato to top the homeless man onto the platform.

- Oh my God, what did I do? I don't want to die!?

Sure enough, it was too late.

Just as we pushed the homeless man onto the platform, the roar of the tram entering the station was faintly heard.

"Run, run over the platform and survive!"

Kato saw that he couldn't climb the platform, so he came up with such a bad idea and ran first.

I was really killed by you, hateful hot-blooded idiot Katozai.

If I survive, I'll break your head!

It's just that at this moment, this body is really impossible to run.

Unexpectedly, in the end, I would die for helping others.

However, even if you know that you can't run the train.

The fear of death still made me run fast the moment Kato started, and I even led Kato by half a body.

But it's not about hiding from the beast.

Dodge the beast as long as it's not the slowest one to be rescued.

And dodging the tram – I don't even think about these desperate realities.

Just take a big step, speed up, and run a little faster!

The exclamations of people on the platform.

And the deafening sound of the tram.

All made it clear to us that the tram was behind our ass at this point.

But the end of victory is still so far away.

Under the immense pressure of life and death, I suddenly found that time had slowed down.

You are able to control each muscle to stretch and contract to the maximum.

And the shrill roar that had become soft and muffled, the slow-motion of the people on the platform, and even the indifferent gaze of the old lady who had asked me for directions.

Then, suddenly, I noticed that my eyes were drifting and moving in irregular circles, and I even saw my body torn apart by the impact of the train.

And Kato's wreckage, which was more shattered than mine, and watching his bleeding head fly past my eyes, I still had the heart to mock his blood and self-restraint at such a time.

Then an endless darkness swallowed my consciousness.

“…… Am I finally dead......"

Even at the last moment of life.

I still can't shake the unreality that haunts me, the game-like unreality.

If it was at the hands of Senpai Bowzuka, maybe I would feel more at ease.

……………………………………………………

"Aha!"

How?

After that moment of darkness, light filled my eyes again.

There was a clear touch of stepping on the floor under my feet, and I almost fell because of the force I had used too much, and I stopped.

My heart also seemed to violently announce my discomfort because of my self-conscious actions.

But the incredible thing is that the pain that my body would fall apart at any time is gone.

Other than that, I even feel that my body has never been so good.

The arm felt the power it had lost for a long time, and there seemed to be something flowing inside the body.

What's going on? Am I given a new lease of life?

Panting for air, I looked up to see a scene I never dreamed of.

- A room in an ordinary apartment with a black ball in the center.

There were a few people and a dog standing around.

The railroad tracks we ran on before have disappeared without a trace.

"Someone again?" Someone seems to have said that.

"You just died, didn't you?" A man in a neat suit asked.

Looked away from him and looked around at the people around him.

A gangster man with a clean face, a young man in a blue cardigan who doesn't look good, a silly mongrel dog, a middle-aged student with an indifferent face, a long-haired young man with blonde hair and a white-haired old man in a hospital gown.

What's going on!

I'm completely confused right now.

"I don't know what's going on, but we're saved, right?" This guy Kato said next to me, "Look ......."

Please, you won't have a problem with your brain, will you?

"What do you see, you ......"

I really don't want to say anything good about him, hasn't he realized that something is wrong here?!

"You are not saved." The old man in a hospital gown said this, interrupting the conversation between us.

"It's noisy!" The blonde young man sat by the window with his pockets in his pockets and retorted coldly.

"This is heaven, and we're dead." The old man continued, with a look of certainty.

"You're going to die yourself!" The blonde youth's voice was cynical.

"All in all, this is also possible ......"

When others talk to me, I think I should also have a certain level of understanding of my current situation.

Listening to the conversation between the old man and the white-collar worker, I had a hint of enlightenment.

"Where is this, hell?" Asked, looking around.

Actually, I didn't even intend to find out the answer from other people's mouths.

You can see Tokyo Tower from the window.

It seems that the place where I am is is not too far from the place where I live.

It is even less likely to be a place like heaven or hell.

So what's going on with my body at this time?

I've seen me and Kato, an idiot, fall apart when we get hit by a car.

As a result, now the two of us are here unharmed.

It's even better than my previous body.

It seems that something outside of common sense must have happened to us.

Think of the inexplicable guys around you.

I don't think they were going to be much better off than we were when they came here.

Common sense is often like a rule, created just to be broken.

At the very least, my current common sense has been challenged against the very basis of its existence.

I don't know what it is.

The hand that reached for the window switch was blocked by something, and it was impossible to reach what was in front of him.

The white-collar worker explained some of the anomalies in the room.

Well, I must admit.

Since death and resurrection can happen, what else is there that I can't accept?

Watching Kato walk towards the entrance.

Even after hearing from the white-collar workers, it was the same, but Kato tried it anyway.

Obviously, it's also closed in with something inexplicable.

Back where I had been, I sat down on the ground.

"Attention, everyone," the white-collar worker suddenly raised his hand and said loudly.

"From now on, let's introduce ourselves."

This white-collar worker looks like a teacher.

But who is interested in knowing these things?

I looked at them coldly, and I felt out of place with the world as I stepped through death.

Unexpectedly, the first person he named was me.

Is it because I have a talkative face? What kind of world is this?

"Xuanye Ji, high school freshman." I said lightly, nothing else makes sense.

Sitting next to me was Kato, who killed me once.

This righteous idiot, why didn't I see that this guy's brain was abnormal?

If I had known, I would have kicked him away.

Ten years later, I lost my own life.

"Yes...... Kato lowered his head and looked at the floor to the side, "I'm sorry, Aji." ”

Alas~ What's the use of saying sorry now.

"I thought you would be happy to help me......"

Your brain is fine, who would be so benzene?

"Cut!" I replied coldly, not bothering to deal with him.

"Excuse me, what's your name?"

"My name is Katsu Kato, and I was hit by a train and died."

What does it mean to be hit by a tram and die, you really dare to say.

Doesn't this guy know how to introspect at all?

I can't even get angry, damn it.
