Clownmon, one of the former Dark Masters. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info now wandering the real world, but unlike the Fighting Tyrannosaurus, they are the type that can appear in reality without being repelled by the inhibition force.

Digimon that can move freely in the real world are not only clowns, but also puppets. It was the little Shota who was standing next to the clown at this time, who looked to be about ten years old and dressed in a rather foreign manner.

"You're just swaggering around outside, not caring about the human curiosity?"

"So, puppeteers. Even if you don't disguise yourself, people will only think of you as a cosplay. Those eyes were curious, not wary. ”

Listening to that old-fashioned tone, the clownmon seems to be quite familiar with the real world, not at all like the newcomer type.

Clownmons and disguised puppetmons have come to the countryside.

Here is the itinerant circus. Clowns and puppets live here, but no one notices anything unusual, neither the audience nor the circus members.

The destructive power of a full-fledged Digimon in the real world is comparable to that of Godzilla in a special camera, not to mention the two heavyweight Ultimates.

"None of the guys who are bound by the rules can appear in the real world, whether it's Fighting Tyrannosaurus or Steel Garrurumon. is no longer a member of the Four Heavenly Kings, but has untied your shackles. Have you regained your strength? ”

It was the puppet beast who spoke, and he was looking at his companion's body. The clown costume is usually gray and half red, and in the recent Digital World, the clownmon's body was still completely gray.

"Red represents order, black represents chaos. The world exists in between. I've come to the human world and absorbed interesting data, would you like to give it a try? ”

As he spoke, the clownmon pulled out a white handkerchief, and in the middle of it was a candy.

The puppeteer snatched it up, peeled off the candy wrapper, and threw it into its mouth.

"It stinks. How long has it been since your handkerchief has been washed? ”

"Oh......? You've even simulated the human sense of smell? It's a really good program. ”

"Don't get off the hook, the real world is not the same as the digital world. Clothes in the real world will get dirty, and if you don't take a shower, my taste will be questioned. ”

Listening to the puppet beast's words, the clownmon stretched out its sleeve in front of it and pretended to sniff.

"Okay? It's just a little more dusty. ”

"Anyway, the Badge of Tenderness has already been given to that child?" The puppetmon tossed the newspaper aside and asked about the clown.

"Things have changed a bit, and I've found exceptionally interesting samples. I'm very optimistic about the brothers of the Ichijoji family. ”

"You know what, Taiyi, for the digital world. The so-called history and the record are the same thing. "Once when I was at the royal base, the molecular beast said this to Taiyi.

"To change a record is to modify the digital world's past. None of you in the digital world will notice it. Of course, you and I are also included. ”

In bed, somehow, I remembered the words of that time.

The Yagami brothers and sisters are currently living in an apartment in Taitogawa. Because the relationship between the brother and sister in Odaiba's home was destroyed by Digimon, it can be said that they are currently in a state of homelessness.

"Ernie chan, haven't you slept yet?"

There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, it was Taiyi's sister Jia'er's voice.

"Jia'er, what's wrong?"

"Hmm, that...... A little scared to be alone at night. Is it OK to sleep with Ernie sauce? ”

Taiyi and Jia'er used to sleep in a double bed, Taiyi slept on the top bunk, and Jia'er slept on the bottom bunk. But Meimeijia doesn't have a similar bed.

"That's a little weird."

"Huh? Isn't it okay to make Ni-chan? ”

"Of course not. I just think that Jia'er is already nine years old, so she should get used to sleeping alone. Didn't we all be alone when I wasn't at home before? ”

"Today was a little bit different. Then I'm here. ”

Came lightly to Taiyi's side and lay down, in the dark, Taiyi didn't find it, and Jia'er's little face showed a relieved expression at this time.

(Probably I was thinking too much.) Taiichi is a little uneasy about his suspicious state lately.

“…… Now, Ernie sauce. What if, just what if...... If Jia'er is no longer Jia'er in the future, will Ni-chan still be so good to Jia'er? ”

"Little fool, what are you talking about?"

Taiyi's thoughts, which had finally calmed down, were stirred up again.

"What if...... If...... Can it be like this forever...... It's good to keep going like this. ”

Jia'er's sudden move to Taiyi's side caught Taiyi off guard.

(It's just that my sister is spoiling my brother)

But why, why did she cry so sadly, even Taiyi felt the sadness as if she had lost a loved one......

comforted Jia'er with kind words, and finally her sister's mood gradually calmed down.

Suddenly, there was a trance in his mind, and Taiyi's eyelids became heavier and heavier.

Jia'er's sobbing sound became quieter and quieter, and her emotions gradually calmed down.

Black peaks. Black wasteland. A herd of black-pressed beasts, surrounded by scarlet masks.

"Here it is...... Where? ”

A whole group of dark shadows knelt down towards them, chanting the name of the Night Stalker. But the girl didn't feel real about it at all.

"It's a dream, isn't it?"

When she said this, the black shattered little by little. Then, something fell from her head.

Awakened from a nightmare, Jia'er finds herself curled up on a tatami mat.

The door was closed, and there was a sound of movement outside, and he soon remembered that this was not "his own room", but his brother Taiyi's.

In the living room, Dilumon and Xiangxiangmon were already processing their breakfast, while Taiyi was packing his bags and planning to go out.

"Going to school?"

"Yes, I'm already a middle school student, but elementary school is still on summer vacation, so Jia'er can rest at home for a while."

"Be careful on the road."

"Yes, yes. Xiangxiang beasts, please ask for them. ”

Soon after saying this, the sound of the door closing was heard.

"Dilumon, come here."

"Jia'er?"

"There's a little bit of something to care about. The Battle Tyrannosaurus isn't there, is it? ”

"The Battle Tyrannosaurus has left with Taiyi."

"Don't say it to Ernie sauce."

Beckoning her partner to her room, Jia'er opened the drawer and pulled out a red mask pressed under the textbook from under the textbook.

"Is this?!"

"Looks like that, the mask of the vampire beast."

"How could Jia'er have this thing. Shouldn't it have gone back to the digital world? ”

"I don't know very well, it seems like this thing ...... It fell out of my dream. ”

"Dreams? How could something in a dream come to reality. ”

"I don't know. But here it is. By the way, Dilu-chan, Digimon don't seem to dream. ”

"Why didn't you tell Taiyi?" Dilumon asked a little strangely.

In Dilumon's view, the Yagami siblings are a model of brother-sister relationships in the real world, and for this kind of problem related to the digital world, it is best to let Taiichi solve it.

"Brother can't be involved in those things anymore." Jia'er had a serious expression on her little face.

“！？” Dilumon was a little unsure.

"Ernie sauce. The Ball Beast thing, that wasn't his dream. But at least, Jia'er won't let Ni-chan and Sona-san disappear as inexplicably as in a dream. ”

The girl was proclaiming, and at the same time, a light appeared in her body......

Light?

Dilumon rubbed its eyes, it seemed that it was hallucinating on its own, and Jia'er stood there just now.

"What's wrong? Dilumon? ”

"By the way, Jia'er, you just said ......"

"Well, this mask seems to be the mask of a vampire beast. Moreover, it seems to have fallen out of my dream. ”

For a moment, Delumon experienced a strong sense of disobedience called déjà vu.

"Jia'er, didn't you just say it again?"

"Huh? Have it? I've just opened the drawer. ”

"Then, why didn't you tell Taiyi about this?" Dirumon repeated his question.

"Huh? Why...... I vaguely feel that it's better not to tell them. ”

Dilumon followed Jia'er's instructions and hid the red mask under the bed. But at the moment, its heart is quite uneasy.

(Could it be that my program is bugging?) But why, is that feeling so real? ）

Looking at the little girl on the couch holding the fragrant beast, Dilumon struggled to banish those thoughts from his mind.
