"Araki-kun, wake up, Araki ......"

Bai Xue slowly opened his eyes, feeling groggy in his mind, as if he had woken up from an unknown nightmare.

The electric light above his head was a little blinding, and he put his hand in front of him, only to realize that he was in a cramped room.

To his right, a girl dressed as a waitress was half-crouching beside him, looking at him with concern.

What is this place? Why am I here?

Bai Xue remembered that he was crossing the street when he left the Europa Art Center when suddenly a Porsche on the side of the street hit him like crazy. Before he could dodge, he was hit in the air and fell heavily to the ground......

"So, I'm dead?" Bai Xue muttered.

"What did you say, Araki-kun?"

The girl dressed as a waiter looked puzzled, because Bai Xue just spoke in Chinese, and she couldn't understand it.

Bai Xue looked back at her.

The girl in front of her doesn't look very old, with two over-the-shoulder ponytails, and her face is a little baby fat, but it brings out her innocence and cuteness.

"Hirano ......" Bai Xue's mouth involuntarily jumped out of such a name.

A large part of the memory suddenly appeared in Bai Xue's mind. These memories originally belonged to a boy named Araki Haku, but they were extremely clear in Hakugaku's mind, as if he had experienced it himself.

He was suddenly a little confused, like Zhuang Zhou dreaming of a butterfly, and he couldn't figure out whether he was Bai Xue or Araki Bai.

Aya Hirano said with a worried face, "Araki-kun, are you okay?" You scared me to death, I saw you fall in the locker room, I didn't respond to calling you for a long time, I thought you were ......"

Araki Bai temporarily gave up thinking about the philosophical question of who he really was, and touched Ayaya Hirano's head with a smile as usual, and said, "You think I'm dead?" Rest assured, my body is very strong, how can I die so easily. ”

Touched by Araki Bai's head like a kitten, Aya's face turned red all of a sudden. She lowered her head and said, "I didn't mean that...... I mean...... That ......"

Her voice grew lower and lower, until at last it was like a mosquito chirping.

Araki Bai smiled softly and comforted, "It's okay, Hirano." Come, give me a hand. ”

Aya Hirano hurriedly grabbed Araki Haku's hand and helped him stand up.

Araki Bai stood in place, feeling a little numb in his body, and he guessed that it was because his blood circulation had stopped for a while. As the blood flowed again, there were bursts of tingling sensations all over his body, indicating that his body was regaining its ability to sense.

A normal person will not be able to sit on the floor for a long time unless the person's heart stops beating again for a few minutes.

Araki Haku is only 16 years old, which is the age of youth and vitality, and it stands to reason that people of this age will not die so easily. But during this time, he was so tired that in order to earn money to support his family, he had to work several jobs by himself. Coupled with the lack of moderate nutrition, maybe he just wanted to rest a little by leaning on the cabinet, but he didn't expect to wake up.

And at the same moment, Bai Xue from another world also died in a car accident. An incredible connection was created between the two souls, which then fused together.

It may be a great miracle, or it may be a gift from the gods. In any case, it once again gave Bai Xue a chance to do those things he wanted to do but had not done. Naturally, it also gave Araki Bai a chance to continue to protect the people he cared about.

Feeling that the numbness in his legs had disappeared, Araki Shiro asked Aya Hirano, who was standing aside, "Hirano, what time is it?" ”

Aya Hirano looked down at her watch and said, "It's almost seven o'clock." ”

Araki Bai nodded and said, "I'm going back, my sister is still at home waiting for me to make her dinner." ”

Aya Hirano nodded understandingly, and said gently and virtuously, "Be careful on the road." ”

Hakura Araki waved his hand and left the locker room.

However, he didn't leave directly through the back door, but went to the front hall to find the store manager.

At this time, the store manager with a mustache was cleaning up the dishes left by the guests, and when he saw Araki Bai coming over, the store manager greeted him with a smile: "Ah Bai, why don't you come home so late?" ”

Araki also smiled at him and said, "Store manager, I want to advance this month's salary in advance, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

It's not even the middle of the month, and it stands to reason that no boss will willingly advance the salary that will be paid at the end of the month, not to mention that Araki Bai is not a contract worker.

However, the mustachioed store manager said very cheerfully: "No problem." Is there something going on at home? If there's anything you need help with, just let me know. ”

Araki Bai shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I just want to buy something." ”

The store manager patted him on the shoulder, then came to the cash register, took a few bills from it and handed them to Araki Bai, and said, "Ah Bai, don't be stingy if you have any difficulties, I know that you are a strong person, but not everything has to be borne by one person." ”

Araki Bai nodded and thanked him, "I know, store manager." If there's something I can't do, I'm not stingy to share it with you. ”

The store manager smiled and said, "It's good if you know, go ahead." ”

After saying goodbye to the store manager, Araki Shiro left the fast-food restaurant where he worked.

On the way, he bought some sushi at a sushi restaurant to take home for dinner for himself and his sister.

Under normal circumstances, Araki Shiro cooks at home by himself, because it is more economical. But after having Bai Xue's painting skills, it is naturally not a problem to make money, so Araki Haku's little extravagance.

While passing by a shopping mall, Araki Hakuro turned in and came to the painting supply store.

He bought a lot of tools for painting, such as manuscript paper, ink, knives, dot paper, duckbill pens, markers...... Such a large number of tools, at first glance, are used to draw comics.

The clerk looked at Araki Haku with a little curiosity after seeing it, most of the people who came here to buy manga supplies were adults in their twenties and thirties, and it was rare to see a young man like Araki Haku.

"Is my brother going to learn to draw comics?" The clerk asked as he pressed the calculator to calculate the price.

Araki Bai smiled and said, "I do want to draw manga, but it's not to study, but to submit it." ”

The clerk smiled and said, "So the little brother's painting skills are very good?" ”

Araki Hakuro smiled, "It's okay. ”

Using "okay" to describe his painting skills is obviously that Araki Bai is overly modest.

You must know that the other half of Araki Bai's soul is known as a genius in the painting world in his world.

Bai Xue learned to paint under the strict guidance of his master parents since he was a child, debuted at the age of 17, and achieved world-renowned achievements at the age of 24, known as "Modern Picasso" and "Little Da Vinci".

Bai Xue's life was extremely glorious, but no one ever knew what he really thought.

From the age of 6 to 24, Bai Xue painted various watercolors, ink paintings, and oil paintings every day under the supervision of his parents...... He did succeed, and his paintings would have been applauded by anyone who knew how to appreciate them.

But these are not really what Bai Xue really wants to paint.

Over the years, there was only one kind of painting that Bai Xue really wanted to draw, and that was comics, but this was the only thing his parents would not allow him to draw.

But this world is no longer the world of Bai Xue, the Bai Xue of that world is dead, but the Araki Bai of this world is alive. In this world, the two of them will usher in a new journey of life.
