Chapter 60: Sleepwalking

"Who are you?"

Vanessa, the president of the student council, looked at the slender black-haired girl who suddenly appeared, and was a little shocked for a while. She was sure that she had never seen this girl with a gloomy temperament.

However, the fact that the other party was wearing a well-tailored Santa Maria College uniform meant that she was a student of the college.

"She should be from a lower city like Emily!" Of course, the brown-haired girl on the side didn't know Char either.

Char raised his right hand, and a coin bounced high!

Hypnosis!

Vanessa and the brunette girl's gaze swirls upwards as the coin spins upward, becoming more and more dazed and hollow!

As the coin flew to its highest point, the two yawned loudly and fell into a deep sleep completely.

Char pointed back, and the two of them, like marionettes, left the alley with mechanical steps.

"What did you do... Why would Vanessa listen to you? Emily looked incredulous and looked at Char's back.

Char turned around and helped Emily up.

However, when Emily saw Char's face clearly, her face turned pale, and she stepped back again and again, pointing at Char with trembling fingers: "It's you... Why you? Isn't that a dream? ”

Emily let out a scream with her head in her hands, stumbling away.

Suzanne walked out and chuckled, "Hypnosis can't solve problems that violence can!" What a practical skill. Your landlord, Locke, should be overly concerned. His daughter, Emily, only had bruises when she was bullied at school. As for nightmares and sleepwalking, everyone has nightmares and everyone has the possibility of sleepwalking. Although her sleepwalking situation is a little scary, it should also be caused by school bullying. ”

"No... She did get the nightmare virus. Locke was right. Char turned around with a wry smile on her face, "You just saw what a look of fear she had on her face when she saw me!" ”

"yes, she just looked like hell. You're so cuteβ€”" Suzanne leaned over and whispered.

"She's seen Dream Girl!" Char glanced at Suzanne and said, "My current dress and temperament are somewhat similar to Dream Girl. In fact, when I looked in the mirror, I was shocked! Only if you are infected with the Nightmare Virus will you see the Dream Girl in your dreams. She thought I was a dream girl... That's why she showed such a frightened expression. ”

"Nightmare virus, illegal drug 'dreams', gang leader's daughter, sleepwalking, school bullying... I'm confused. Suzanne shook her head, there seemed to be some connection between the events, but she couldn't figure it out.

"The water at Santa Maria College is deep... It's deep. Char stared at the white dome of the school building in the distance, and a sense of foreboding welled up in his heart.

Bell, bell, bell...

Suddenly a melodious bell rang on campus.

The lunch break is over, and it's time for class.

"Honor student, let's go to the classroom." Suzanne turned to Char.

"Shall we go to class?" Char frowned slightly, he didn't expect that he really had to go to the classroom, and he was wearing women's clothes.

"What are you doing without classes? The campus is full of patrolling robot security guards. Do you know how suspicious it is to hang out on campus during class hours? Suzanne took Char's hand, trotted all the way to the white school building, casually pushed open the door of a classroom, and broke in.

It's a music room with a piano in the middle of the room.

A beautiful girl with long hair and fair skin is playing the piano song "Canon" in front of the piano.

The female teacher with glasses looked at the sheet music and nodded from time to time.

The other students also listened with bated breath, and no one even noticed that two strange girls quietly entered the classroom.

"I don't like classical music." Suzanne put on her headphones and turned up the volume of rock 'n' roll to the maximum.

"Art is the game of the rich." Char shrugged his shoulders and sat in the back row of the classroom, listening to the beautiful piano music with interest.

As a dream builder, literature, history, philosophy and art are compulsory courses.

Thanks to the existence of assisted light brain technology, human memory has been greatly improved.

Knowledge such as literature, history and philosophy can be easily obtained by inserting the corresponding chip in the brain.

Therefore, most schools no longer offer courses in literature, history and philosophy, but are divided into two parts: science and engineering and art.

In an aristocratic college like Santa Maria Maggiore's College, art is the top priority.

Art, music, sculpture... These courses account for a large proportion.

The reason is simple, robots and androids can replace humans and do most of the work.

However, they are also flawed and lack creativity.

There is a saying circulating on the Internet: art is the last bastion of mankind.

The vast majority of people believe that if one day, artificial intelligence completely replaces humans, then they will surely be able to create art.

It is precisely because of this that the artistic atmosphere in the upper class of Hope City is extremely strong, and the status of artists is getting higher and higher.

Operas, concerts, art exhibitions, sculpture exhibitions...

Every day, there are art exhibitions of all kinds, and artists of all kinds come together to exchange ideas, socialize, praise each other, and denigrate talented competitors.

In time... The rich have monopolized the art industry, cutting off the last avenue for the poor to rise.

A beautiful girl playing the piano has an outstanding temperament and is full of emotion when playing.

Char's body trembled slightly, fascinated by the ancient piano piece "Canon", and at the same time he was shocked by the quality of teaching at Santa Maria College.

The girl who plays the piano is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and her technique of playing the piano is very skillful, comparable to that of some young music masters.

It can be seen that when she was still babbling, she had already been exposed to the piano and had a famous teacher to guide her.

"The gap in educational resources is too big." Char could feel Locke's despair.

The poor, born in lower-class cities, lag far behind the rich from the starting line.

The achievements of the poor in their lives are not as good as the moments when the rich fall to the ground.

"If I hadn't had the talent of a dream builder... I was also struggling with poverty and worried about three meals a day. How can I have the time and mind to study any art? But... Now I am still a little person worth mentioning in the eyes of the rich. ”

Char had a bitter smile on her face.

Messy thoughts drift to the music, and the song "Canon" is coming to an end.

And at this very moment...

A stunned screeching keynote, the girl's slender fingers hung over the keys, and they didn't fall for a long time.

Her eyes were hollow, she stared at the score, her mouth opening wider and wider, and a look of fear on her face.

"No..."

Char was slightly stunned, and immediately put on a yoga pose and entered a state of "dream roaming".

Char's consciousness broke away from her body and saw a dark cloud hanging over the girl's head!

It's a dream!

A terrifying dream as black as ink!

The girl playing the piano is not awake, she is sleepwalking!
