Chapter 370: When I Wake Up (Part II)

The speeding sedan seemed to be challenging Mai and the others again and again, because in just a few short sections, the number of 'people' who were knocked off along the way was already countless, not to mention that they were now driving in the direction of the denser crowd.

At first, it was okay, the person who was knocked out of the air was not aware at all, and after falling to the ground, he staggered and stood up and walked away as if nothing happened, but as he went deeper into this fantasy world, the people and things around him gradually became 'real', and at this time, the 'person' who was knocked away was no longer a 'puppet', but a relatively 'real' existence.

This also leads to the fact that the body of the sedan they are riding in is covered with bloodstains...

Behind them, several police cars with rapid sirens are chasing after them, and with the relatively 'real' statement of the world structure, the police cars in pursuit have also changed from the initial procedural trailing mode to a fierce chase.

Asuka could even feel the screeching sound of bullets fired from the police car grazing the body from time to time, which made the two people in the car tremble except for Shiseshi Makoto and Kirino Makio, who was always an old god.

Doesn't this guy feel a little guilty...

Asuka clung to the handle of the window so that he wouldn't feel like he would be thrown away at any moment by the weightlessness of drifting through a corner, and complained to himself about the star's true black belly.

According to this development, it is really a wise choice not to grab the driver's position with Zhu Xingzhen, and he is the only one among the four people who can drive and hit people so indifferently, although he clearly understands in his heart that these 'people' around him are only shaped by fantasy, but he really wants to drive over by himself, and the birds ask themselves if they can't do Zhu Xingzhen to this extent...

Maybe it's a sign of decisiveness, right?

Probably...

But it's not for nothing, at least Zhu Xingzhen's method did allow them to find the 'master' of this fantasy world as quickly as possible...

'Squeak~~~z~~~'

With a screeching sound caused by the violent friction between the tires and the ground, the car finally stopped in front of a zebra crossing, and in the direction of the car, a couple in their thirties, and a family of three with a boy about ten years old were watching in amazement at the car that stopped nearby.

Not only that, but people on the surrounding roads also quickly gathered around, either curious or frightened.

Not for anything else, just because the car in front of me is really eye-catching...

Not to mention the scratches and bullet marks on the body, the twisted deformation of the front and the missing lid are amazing, and it is also quite an ornamental sight to see if you can continue to drive like this...

The police cars that had been trailing for a long time arrived almost at the same time, perhaps thanks to their sirens, or perhaps there would be an even more eye-catching 'spectacular' crash scene for them to see...

Ignoring the police car behind and the crowd of onlookers around him, Mai, who had endured for a long time, had already reached the limit, pushed the car door and found a random place to vomit, and the faces of the birds who got off the back seat were not much better, only Kirino Mufu walked out with a calm face.

As Zhu Xingzhen got out of the driver's seat, the policemen in the police car behind him immediately came up as if they were facing a great enemy, and at the same time evacuated the onlookers, surrounding the four people, including Mai, who was still spitting up.

"Slow, slow, please wait a minute!"

At this time, the middle-aged man who had finally recovered from the shock, that is, the main purpose of Zhu Xingzhen's trip, Hirai Heiji, immediately stepped forward to stop it.

And the policemen who were supposed to arrest Zhu Xingzhen and others actually stopped their actions and stood aside under his words.

"Really... What are you doing here? ”

Smiling bitterly, Guang Lai looked at the street that had been stirred up by Zhu Xingzhen and others, and his tone was a little helpless.

"We've wasted a lot of effort trying to find you."

Zhuxing really doesn't care, for him, everything around him is just a fantasy illusion constructed by relying on brain waves, it is easy to destroy, and it is easy to recover, and it can be recovered by relying on a single thought.

The policemen just explained this very well, otherwise they would have been caught in the police car a long time ago.

"You... Forget it, let's talk about it at my house. ”

Guanglai really couldn't say anything to the stars, and it didn't seem like a place to talk, so he turned around and took the boy's hand and left, not caring about what was happening around him.

Asuka helped Mai, who was still pale, to Zhuxingzhen's side, and asked Zhuxingzhen what to do next with his eyes.

The policemen who originally came to hunt down Zhu Xingzhen and his party began to maintain local law and order, handling all the rules and regulations as the scene of the car accident, completely ignoring the whereabouts of Zhu Xingzhen and his party.

Seeing this, the stars really just shrugged their shoulders, and there was nothing else to do at this point, but to keep up with Guanglai's footsteps, and Asuka did not hesitate when he saw this, and followed with Mai, whose legs and feet were still a little weak.

Said that they were going to Guang Lai's house, in fact, their group only walked a few steps forward, and after encountering a corner, the scene changed to another place, and the scene switch made people feel as if this place was the natural corner.

"You're really friends, aren't you? That's my friend. The scene transitioned to 'home', and Hirorai's mood seemed to improve inexplicably, and he became quite enthusiastic, and greeted Asuka, Mai, and Kirino Mufu behind Zhuxingzhen, "You're welcome, just treat it as if it's your own home." ”

Asuka and the others, who were warmly entertained, looked a little unnatural, knowing that everything in front of them was just a fantasy, and there was always a strange feeling that they couldn't explain when they faced Hirorai, but they still found a place to sit down according to Hirorai's hospitality.

"Come on, really, I'll introduce you, this is my insider."

After seeing that Asuka and the others were seated, Guanglai took the hand of the beautiful woman on the side and introduced it to Zhu Xingzhen and the others, his tone full of pride.

Unlike the Guanglai seen outside of the crystal, he now looks radiant.

For his wife, Guanglai is extremely complacent, and he is unabashed in his deep love for his wife.

"When we first met, I was Kaori Hirori."

Kaori Hirori's enthusiasm made Kaori Hirori a little embarrassed, but looking at Hirori's eyes, she could see that she was very happy with Hirori's attitude.

"First meeting."

Although he knew that it was just an illusion, Zhu Xingzhen still respected Guanglai's enthusiasm and nodded slightly in response.

And Guanglai took the opportunity to keep everyone here for dinner, and Zhu Xingzhen made eye contact with Asuka and acquiesced.

After a brief greeting to Asuka and the group, Kaori Hirori left the table on the pretext of preparing dinner and went to the kitchen to get busy.

"Yaren, come over and greet a few uncles and aunts."

After Kaori Hirori left the table, Hirori didn't stop and beckoned the little boy who had been staying aside to come over.

"Auntie..."

Mai, who was pale, seemed to have a tendency to petrify after hearing this name, so she didn't mention it for the time being.

"Hello uncles and aunts, it's the first time we met, I'm from Guanglai Ya, please advise."

Generally speaking, even the younger generations no longer need to say that they need such a grand etiquette, but the little boy is very well-behaved, and after listening to his father's words, he went straight to the front of everyone and bowed.

If all this is not an illusion of fantasy, such a well-behaved child will definitely make a few people here feel good, but it's a pity...

Everyone was still embarrassed to return the salute, but fortunately, Guanglai quickly sent his son away, which made Asuka and Mai breathe a sigh of relief.

After Yaren left, Guanglai just talked about some homely things to himself, and showed a beautiful tea art by the way, but when the fragrant tea was put in front of him, no one wanted to taste it.

No one knows what it's like to eat this fantasy...

However, there are always exceptions to everything, and Kirino Mukio did not shy away from picking up the teacup, sniffing it in front of the tip of his nose before tasting it.

"I'm not interested in tea."

Seeing Guang Lai's earnest gaze frequently signaling, Zhu Xing really had no choice but to say so.

He really doesn't like tea.

"Tea is great for the body, but it's a pity, it seems that your fiancΓ©e is much better than you when it comes to enjoying life."

Hirose sighed at this, and then turned his gaze to Asuka.

"Actually, I don't like to drink tea either..."

Asuka hurriedly refused.

Guanglai was buried for a while, and when it was Mai's turn, in the face of that expectant gaze, Mai, who couldn't bear the pressure, could only smile dryly and pick up the teacup, touch it on her lips and quickly put it down.

"Masato likes painting very much," Seeing that Guanglai had a momentum of not giving up without drinking, Mai quickly changed the topic, pointed to a few paintings hanging in the hall with obviously immature brushstrokes and asked, "Are these his works?" ”

"yes."

Guanglai just smiled and nodded, and continued to talk about Mai.

Everyone looked towards the portrait and found that although the painting style of the portrait still had a certain immaturity, it was undeniable that the painting was really good.

"That's good, Masato must be when he grows up..."

Mai said as if she suddenly thought of something, and quickly stopped the words that came to her mouth.

On the way to find Guanglai, Zhu Xingzhen briefly introduced to them what happened to Guanglai, although it was not very detailed, but Mai knew a little bit.

Guanglai's son died a few years ago.

"No, no, I mean, Masato is so well-behaved and sensible, definitely, no, this..."

Mai, who felt that she had said the wrong thing to make up for it, was at a loss, and the more anxious she was, the more she didn't know what to say, but fortunately, Hirora didn't seem to blame.

"Don't worry, little girl, I know that everything I'm experiencing now is just a false illusion, and I'm not going to take this place as reality."

The enthusiasm on Guanglai's face is no longer there, and the calm application makes Mai feel even more uneasy.

And at this time, Zhuxing, who heard Mai mention Masato's well-behaved and sensible people, suddenly remembered that Guanglai seemed to have mentioned his son to him. I remember that he used naughty and willful to describe his son at that time, obviously not the kind of character he just saw!

"You..."

Zhu Xingzhen's eyes became surprised when he looked at Guanglai, he thought that Guanglai was addicted to fantasy and couldn't extricate himself, but now...

"It seems that I can't hide it from you after all..."

Guanglai smiled bitterly,

"Yes, how can my wayward son be so well-behaved as he was just now..."

"Huh?"

The unknown Asuka didn't understand the meaning of Guanglai's words.

"Actually, Masato hates painting the most, because he always can't draw well."

The illusion was revealed, and Hirori did not show panic or annoyance, on the contrary, he had a faint smile of relief on his face.

"Kaori too, she's a very strong woman, and... Her cooking has always been terrible. ”

Recalling the beauty of his memory, the flat smile on Guang Lai's face also became full, detailing the past for everyone.

And through the comparison of the past described by Guanglai, it is found that the world in his fantasy is diametrically opposed to the one in his memory.

"You... Could it be..."

At this moment, Asuka looked at Hirorai's gaze and moved.

He couldn't believe that Guanglai was not only not affected by 'Asmantis', but used the little details of his life to keep telling himself in the warmth of reuniting with his family that everything was just a false 'reality'...

How cruel is this...

I thought that Hirori was just one of the people who indulged in fantasy and couldn't extricate himself, but now Asuka feels that this seemingly ordinary person in front of him has a strength that is not inferior to anyone!

"All of this is like a dream to me, real and false, but..."

Hirori closed his eyes tiredly,

"No matter how beautiful the dream is, it will eventually usher in the moment of waking up."

......

Guanglai is gone.

Before leaving, he also took Zhu Xingzhen and others to say goodbye to his wife in front of the door, with a flat smile on his face, as if he was just going out temporarily for a while and would be back soon.

Obviously, he hasn't escaped from the crystal world yet, but this world that belongs to Guanglai is now only his former home, and the two most important people in his life in front of the door - Kaori Guanglai and Masato Guanglai.

There is a blank space around, and everything has lost its meaning of existence for the current Guanglai.

Zhu Xingzhen and Asuka stood beside Hirori with a heavy heart, looking at this man with a flat face but desperately waving goodbye to his family, saying 'I'll be back soon', and time seemed to be heavy for him.

However, the time of parting will still come.

No matter what.

Maybe the separation is really for a better encounter.
