——？？？？ ——

"Uh-"

Ryunosuke felt that he was in a state of confusion and dizziness, and even the scenery around him was a little blurry.

The furnishings and patterns around me look ...... It seems to be Fuyuki City General Hospital?

Could it be that because he drank too much, he was called an ambulance by the Knights of the Round Table and taken to the hospital? But they don't even have an escort, do they look down on him as King Arthur?

It's so bad to fight him with juice, that Mary Sue.

Ryunosuke looked at the bed and equipment that showed no signs of use, frowned, pushed open the door and walked out.

The corridors were the same as the wards, the roofs were lit with blazing white tubes, but there was no one, it was quiet.

When Ryunosuke looked out of the window of the hallway, he saw that the entire Fuyuki was pitch black, and not only was there no light, but there was no starlight or "aurora on the ground".

Yourself this is ...... Where is it?

Ryunosuke looked up at the number of the ward, which said "Room 404".

Although he was still a little dizzy, Ryunosuke was completely sure that he had basically not suffered from any serious illness that required hospitalization in the past ten years, and this number was the number in the ward where he was hospitalized with a high fever that year.

So...... Could it be ten years ago? Using the "Time Machine" in a daze?

No, it can't be, in Olga Marie's words, more than a year, the waveform of the brain can't match at all, let alone ten years, the average person thinks of what he did ten years ago, and basically wants to beat that self.

So, this is actually a dream? Thinking day and night because of the successful invention of the time machine?

Ryunosuke looked at the wall of the hallway and began to think about the angle at which to throw the punch.

[There are countless stars in the sky~ The smallest is me~]

However, the sudden sound of singing stopped Ryunosuke's movements.

That's right, wasn't the Fuyuki General Hospital ten years ago the place where he and Lin Hao first met?

[I don't know where I came from~ I don't know where I was born~]

Ryunosuke looked up, put away his fist that was about to fight, and began to familiarize himself with the stairs leading to the upper floor.

Now, though, there's a problem.

Ryunosuke compared the height difference between himself and the railing of the staircase, as well as the size of his palm.

"The self in the dream" is obviously what it looks like ten years later, if Lin Hao on the roof is still the same as ten years ago, the "brother" can't be shouted.

[There are countless dragonmen on the ground~The smallest one is me~]

However, this problem no longer existed when Ryunosuke pushed the door to open the stairwell to the top of the building.

Just look at the back of standing there looking up at the starry sky, it is clearly Lin Hao ten years later.

[I don't know where I came from~ I don't know where I was born~]

Although it was ten years later, it was still the same as it was then, wearing a hospital gown that didn't fit at all.

And, there was still a feeling that she would fly away along that ice-blue pillar of light at any moment.

[Hum ~ Hum ~ Hum ~ Hum ~] Lin Hao began to hum the interlude of this strange song.

Do you want to recreate the situation at that time? It's also too shameful – wait?

Starry sky? Beam? When I looked out in the hallway, it was still pitch black, huh?

Ryunosuke looked at the "aurora on the ground" and the bright starry sky around him in shock, but there was still no light coming out of the large houses on the surface.

Due to these delays, Lin Hao had already hummed the interlude and sang a lyric that Ryunosuke had never heard:

[Who knew that I was in my mother's arms, but I searched all over the world to find her~]

This sentence...... No, it's not a dream!

No one can dream about something they don't even know!

Ryunosuke rushed up in a few steps and tried to hug the "Hayashi Hao", but his arm pierced through her like a phantom.

When Ryunosuke, who fell in front of "Lin Hao" too hard, hurriedly looked up, he saw her red and black mottled eyes, bloodshot and horizontal, with neither whites nor pupils.

It was no longer an eye, it could even be called a deep well, a black hole, enough to frighten everyone who saw it without mental preparation.

However, she blinked her eyes that were obviously impossible to see, and turned her head to "look" at Ryunosuke, who had fallen to the ground in embarrassment.

"Okay, you-"

[Already, there's nothing to be afraid of] She smiled at Ryunosuke.

Then, the whole person turned into a golden point of light and rolled backwards towards the "halo" in the sky.

——2004.7.29——

"Scared!" Ryunosuke jumped up from the sofa with a carp and looked around with his hands open.

This is Camelot's parlor, and judging by the light cast from the window, it should still be morning.

Although it was cleaned up, it seems from the remaining cups, boxes, and smells that it must have been a banquet last night.

"Ryunosuke?" Lin Hao was standing at the other end of the sofa, holding a blanket in his hand, and looked at him with a little doubt: "Sure enough, is it uncomfortable to fall asleep on the sofa?" But none of us can lift you. ”

"No, the couch is fine." Ryunosuke almost immediately judged that he had slept dishonestly on the sofa and kicked the blanket off, and when Hayashi Hao came to pick up the blanket, he happened to wake up.

As for the reason for waking up...... What is it?

Under normal circumstances, no one can remember their dreams clearly, and they tend to completely disappear from memory within three to five minutes of waking up, but Ryunosuke was obviously faster at this time.

But in any case, there is still a little impression.

Ryunosuke frowned and strode in front of Lin Hao: "From yesterday to now, have you had any discomfort, especially your eyes?" ”

"No," Lin Hao shook his head suspiciously, "It's the same as usual." ”

"Let me see." Ryunosuke didn't dare to reach out to touch her eyes, but just got closer and stared at Lin Hao's black and white eyes.

"Hee-hee~Don't show it~" Lin Hao began to blink quickly, his long eyelashes blocking Ryunosuke's vision like a small brush.

However, even so, Ryunosuke saw what he wanted to see - black eyes and white eyes are very normal, even if there was a banquet last night and I woke up early today, they were very bright, and there was not even a trace of blood at all.

Speaking of which...... What kind of dream did you have that would leave such a big obsession as "go and see Lin Hao's eyes"?

Someone knocked on the door of the living room, which was already open.

"I remember we said we were going to test the 'time machine' in the morning," Olga Marie stood in the doorway, looking at the scum with a look on her face, "Could it be that the experiment was successful?" Do you have the courage to attack your 'sister'? ”

“……！” Only then did Ryunosuke realize that his face was too close, so he hurriedly retreated, and almost fell into the sofa with a stumbling step.

I don't know whether to be happy or regretful, Lin Hao's white cheeks didn't even blush a little, but looked at Olga Marie with a little doubt: "Good morning, Miss Mary." ”
