Previous Chapter

My name is Yui and I'm 14 years old.

My brother's name is Yuki and he is 24 years old.

My mom and dad.

I don't have mom and dad.

It's Friday, and I woke up to say hello to my brother as usual, but today was a little different.

This may be the last time I will say hello to my brother.

The thought of probably leaving my brother makes my heart ache as if it had been cut open with scissors.

Two days ago.

It was cloudy, the air was humid, and at 7 o'clock in the morning, I walked out the door and walked in the direction of the school.

But when I was halfway there, I remembered that I had forgotten what I had brought with me, and I had to go back to my house to get it, so I went home.

When I open the door, I find a strange shadow in the house.

I see, they're coming.

This neighborhood, no, this town, so to speak, a lot of people are watching me and my brother, no, to be exact, a lot of people are watching me.

Because I have an ability that a lot of people want.

I can manipulate dreams, I can enter other people's dreams, and I can use them to influence others.

My dreams are other people's realities.

I never knew I had this until the school outing last week. We went to the hill where the road had only recently been built in the town, Mt. Mingshi.

We set out in the morning, arrived at the base of the mountain near noon, and began to walk into the mountain, and in the evening, when everyone was exhausted, we reached the summit.

Everyone sat down and rested, some people fell asleep, and so did I.

I had a dream about a man with a hideous smile on his face who was coming to our camp at night.

Next to the bonfire that has not been extinguished, I picked up the scythe in my hand for an unknown amount of time, and tried to kill my classmate.

The tent was reflected in the campfire, and his shadow was as hideous as his smile.

This shadow is what I saw from my first perspective, and the shadow's feet fit my feet.

Hey, this person with the scythe is me, why am I holding the scythe?

I opened the curtain of the tent and saw the woman in front of me, it seems, is it called Dai Comb, right......

The scythe glittered in the light of the campfire, and there was not a single awake person in this camp except me.

I really want to swing my scythe at the person in front of me.

I tapped her body with my hand and woke her up.

Because of the fire behind me, she couldn't see my face clearly, but she could see the sickle in my hand.

Ah, sure enough, she looked terrified.

"Do you want to escape, it's too late."

"I've found you, you can only belong to me."

"Now, don't make me wait."

……

Our eyes look at each other.

I could feel her fear.

Although I want to bring us closer.

But, I told her.

"Here, let's have a fun little game."

"Right here, I'm coming for you."

"Run."

……

I'll count to 23.

……

I'm coming for you.

Where have you been?

Do you think you won?

Our game of hide and seek has just begun.

I hear your footsteps on the leaves.

I can hear your sharp and rapid breathing.

You're not very good at hiding.

I'm coming.

Wait, you won't be able to escape.

……

Ding dong! I've found you.

You're hiding here, you're here.

It looks like I won, and now you're losing.

It's time for you to accept the punishment and pay the price.

……

I looked at the broken figure in front of me and spoke to her corpse.

Obviously we are best friends, why do you want me to see you and others too

There are people who talk and laugh.

You know, I don't like to see you laughing with others.

My heart hurts.

You can only belong to me.

Is it as good as it is now.

……

I took my comb with blood on my feet and walked down the mountain.

In the dark forest, the light of fireflies flickered and flickered.

On the ground were scattered with broken leaves of wood and falling moon, and the soles of his feet were squirming.

I stopped beside a stream of water, and flowers flowed down the water.

I stretched out my hand, and the blood beads slowly fell, and now the flowers were really red.

……

When I woke up, I found that I was still in the tent, and the dream was so warm that I didn't want to wake up.

Daicomb, where is she?

Will she still laugh in front of me like she did before?

I don't want that.

I searched the entire camp, but I didn't find any sign of Daicom.

"Teacher, have you ever seen Dai Comb?"

I asked the homeroom teacher, Mr. Lin.

Got a negative answer.

I had no choice but to go into the woods.

Dai Comb, come out quickly!

……

I found Dai's body next to a stream, a large cut in her chest, and blood flowed down her clothes into the stream.

……

Is this driver juggling!

I threw up!

Just as I was about to vomit from the shock of the car, something fell out of my pocket.

When I looked closely, it was the same metalwork I had on the bus this morning.

I've almost forgotten about it.

"Are you sick in the head?"

The driver had just made a sharp turn and bypassed the beggar who was in the way, but in addition to the vibration, the body almost fell down the hill.

I looked at the back of the car, and the beggar stood there looking at me.

Then he gave a weird smile.

What kind of people do you meet every day?

I'm going to find my sister!

I took control of the steering wheel with my left hand, and then smashed the piece of metal with my right hand at the brainless driver's head.

"it!"

As soon as he shouted, I reached over with my left foot and stepped on the brakes, opening the door and untying his seat belt.

One kick.

Get out of here!

I occupy this car, and I'm going to drive to Mingshi Mountain!

I shook my head, fastened my seatbelt, and started the car again.

Ming Shishan, I'm here!

At this time, my phone rang.

Is it my sister?

Is it Mr. Lin?

The sunlight suddenly expanded in the leafy mountain path, and I sped forward in the sunlight.

"Hey!"

"Brother Yuki, where are you, I'm in Mingshi Mountain, let's come to find my sister."

It's Dai Comb, I'm not in Mingshi Mountain right now, and I'll probably have 40 minutes to get there, which is really troublesome!

"I'm going to be there in a while, something just happened." I said, "How did you get there, Daicom?" Are you on your own now? ”

Recently, there have been more and more inexplicable people, and I was really touched by the fact that it was so dangerous for a girl to go to the mountains by herself to find my sister.

"Brother Yuki, I'll wait for you at the foot of the mountain, and we'll go find Yui and her together!"

"yes, okay."

I hung up the phone, turned the steering wheel, and was on the way to Yui.

Press the throttle hard.

"This comb seems a little strange."

Ruri said to me suddenly.
