"It's not a 100% successful event."
"So, do you want to speed up the process next?"
"Agreed."

Where is it......
Miu opened his eyes and saw the strange snow-white ceiling, a little confused.
The faint smell of disinfectant water in the air told Miu the answer.
Is it a hospital?
What happened before I fell unconscious?
Miu lay on the hospital bed, closed her eyes again, let her chaotic brain slowly wake up, organize her thoughts, and piece together from her fragmented memories what had happened before she fell unconscious.
was first kidnapped by Chen Zhong and almost tortured to death by him...... Later, he was rescued by Lily, who was looking for him, and then got the news about the "doll" from him...... That's right, dolls!
Thinking back to the doll that burned with green flames and looked like an Enma, Miu suddenly felt a pain in her brain, as if something was about to break through the shackles and gush out.
In a flash, when Miu came back to his senses, the surrounding environment changed again.
"Again......
Miu looked at the dilapidated room around her, and then looked at the quilt she was covering, which was originally white and clean, but now it was also dirty, full of mold and all kinds of burnt marks.
The quilt was lifted, and a puff of dust rose in the air, making Miu sneeze.
After getting out of bed, Miu looked at the dirty, dusty floor, and a pair of slippers that looked dirty, even a little deformed, and hesitated, but put them on.
Miu stretched, then rubbed his face, feeling much more sober, and wandered around the room again, looking for any clues. Almost at first glance, she set her eyes on the bedside tableβon the bedside table, which was full of all kinds of scorch marks, there was a book without a cover, and when she saw this familiar book, Miu suddenly felt a little melancholy in her heart.
"Sciacca ...... Where are you now? β
Picking up the notebook, Miu looked around the room and found the button that appeared to be a light switch, and after walking over and pressing it, there was no response. Miu looked up at the ceiling, and sure enough, above it, the light bulb was empty.
Miu looked at the window again, walked over and pulled the broken curtains open, and for a moment she was stunned by the sight that appeared before her.
Outside the window, it seemed that there was a fog, and it was impossible to see the distant scenery, and the surrounding area was gray, neither the sky nor the ground was colorless, and there were many fine dust floating in the air, which seemed to be the ashes left behind by the burning of something.
"I always feel like I've seen this scene somewhere."
Muttering to herself, Miu closed the curtains again, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath to calm herself, but she inhaled a large mouthful of dust that made her sneeze again.
After wiping away the tears from her face, Miu hesitated and walked towards the door of her room.
Looking at the twisted, old, charred door in front of him, Miu took the doorknob and pushed it out, but failed to push it open.
"Stuck?" Miu frowned and tried harder, but it still didn't work.
Looking at the door that didn't move, Miu finally lost his patience and planned to try a more direct solution.
Pressing his hand on the door lock, Miu called out to Noko, trying to use Noko to break through the door, but the scene from before reappeared.
As soon as Noko left her body, she quickly lost her vitality in the air, gradually depleted, and finally broke and disappeared in the air.
"Ah...... Damn, that's it again. β
Watching a large number of Noh seeds dissipate with a headache, Miu decisively recycled the remaining Noh Zi into his body, and then summoned the spiritual power in his mind to try to destroy the door. The result was obvious, the spiritual power did it easily, and the black mist-like spiritual power easily smashed the entire door into pieces under Miu's control.
Stepping through the wreckage of the door, Miu came out of the room and suddenly found himself in a long, dark corridor with no light in sight, no end in sight.
"Here...... So familiar......"
Miu felt a deep agitation in her heart, and she turned her head to look at one of them, for some reason, she always felt as if something was waiting for her in that place.
After hesitating for a long time, Miu finally stepped forward and walked towards that side.
The dark corridor seemed to have no end, Miu didn't know how long she walked, but she still didn't see the end, and when she turned back, she was surprised to find that a wall had become behind her, and the way she came seemed to have disappeared.
Trying to touch the wall, the cold and hard touch made Miu confirm that the wall was real.
With a sigh, Miu gave up the idea of going back, turned his head, and continued walking forward.
I don't know how long I walked, and even Miu felt numb, when a glimmer of light finally appeared in front of her.
"Is it finally here......
Seeing the light faintly emanating from the front of him, Miu's steps were much faster. As she walked, the light in front of her grew closer and clearer. Finally, Miu came to a half-hidden door, which, unlike the others, looked new and clean, and the pink color with the carved pattern on the door made it look beautiful.
Miu looked at the door in front of him in a daze, and a thick palpitation suddenly appeared in his heart.
Behind this door...... What is it?
She reached out and put her hand on the doorknob, but she couldn't make up her mind to push the door open.
"Push open the door."
Suddenly, a cold voice sounded behind her. Miu's heart tightened, her hair stood on end, she turned her head sharply, and looked back, only to see a vague figure standing behind her, a pair of bright yellow eyes looking at her fixedly.
"Who are you?"
Miu subconsciously asked the question, but then, the tingling sensation in her brain returned, this time accompanied by a broken memory.
"Hmm......"
The sharp pain that appeared for a moment made Miu cover his head and let out a low groan of pain.
After a while, Miu recovered from the intense pain, gasping for breath, and his whole body was soaked in sweat as if he had been fished out of water.
"You...... Is it Miao? β
Taking a deep breath at the end, Miu finally calmed himself down, looked at the blurry figure standing in front of him, and asked.
"Looks like you made it."
Miao nodded and said.
"What succeeded?" Miu was stunned by his brainless words.
"Nothing." Miao shook her head and pointed to the door behind Miu, "Aren't you going to open that door?" β
"I always felt ...... As soon as I open this door, bad things will happen. Miu said, looking back at the door.
"You have to go in, it's not a choice." Miao said.
After hesitating for a long time, Miu nodded, turned around again, faced the door, pressed his hand on it, and gently pushed-
In an instant, a dazzling light overflowed from the room, and in an instant, it surrounded Miu, who couldn't help but close his eyes in the blinding light.
"Facing what you fear is the way for everyone."
Miao watched as Miu was shrouded in light, leaving only this sentence, and then his body shook for a while, and finally turned into a mist and dissipated into the air.
Miu heard Miao's words, and the bad premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger, and when he was about to say something, the bright light in front of him suddenly disappeared. Without the stimulation of the bright light, Miu was finally able to open his eyes again. When she saw her environment clearly, she couldn't help but be stunned.
It's a predominantly pink room, the room is clean and tidy, and the furnishings look warm and lovely. For some reason, Miu looked at this room, and what emerged in his heart was a complex and incomprehensible emotion, mixed with happiness, fear, and sadness, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.
Miu tried to calm herself down, glancing around the room before finally falling to the table on the side of the room, on which was a picture frame. Miu walked over, stretched out his hand, picked up the frame, and looked at it carefully.
Embedded in the frame is a photograph that looks like a little girl, looking petite, as if she is only seven or eight years old, wearing a dress, stockings, and a pair of small leather shoes, which looks very cute. But what is strange is that in this photo, the little girl's face is somewhat blurred.
Miu flipped the frame over and looked at the back, where there was a line of sharp pen letters: "My daughter, I wish you a happy birthday, you will always be the pride of your father." β
"Is it a birthday photo for my daughter?" Miu raised an eyebrow and put the frame back in place, "But I always feel like I've seen this girl somewhere." β
Shaking his head and putting the thought aside, Miu tried to pull open the drawer on the table, but failed, appearing to be locked.
When Miura reached the drawer at the bottom of the table, she subconsciously looked at her feet, but was surprised to find that the dirty slippers she had worn on her feet had long since disappeared, replaced by a pair of small leather shoes.
A pair of small leather shoes that look familiar.
Miu jerked her head up and looked at the picture on the table again, wondering if it was an illusion, she always felt that the little girl's face in the photo was much clearer. But that wasn't where she was looking, what she was looking at was the little leather shoes that the little girl was wearingβexactly the same pair as the ones on her feet!
"What's going on?"
Miu suddenly felt a tightness in her heart, and as soon as she turned her head, she saw a floor-to-ceiling mirror placed next to the table, and then picked up the picture frame and walked to the floor-to-ceiling mirror.
Looking at his own appearance reflected in the floor-to-ceiling mirror, Miu's heart seemed to be a mess.
She lowered her head in a daze and looked at the picture frame in her hand.
The face of the little girl in the photo is her own face.
"I ...... Is it dreaming? β
Miu felt a sense of dread that she had never felt before, tugging at her heart so tightly that she couldn't breathe.
At this moment, she suddenly felt as if her heart had been punched hard, beating violently a few times, and then her eyes went black and she lost consciousness again.
