In the dream, a pale cyan figure vaguely appeared, and the pale side face was clearly outlined. But she was a little unsure, would this familiar figure be the most familiar person?

Instead of wearing black from head to toe as usual, I chose a light-colored shirt and stood fluttering in the wind. Everything seems so unreal.

Star Swirl reached out to touch the corner of his coat, only to hear his hoarse and choked voice, a far cry from the usual calm and gentleness.

"Star Swirl—" he called her name, slowly turning his face to stare at her with a pair of eyes covered with water.

Before she could respond, she saw a huge red sun in the distance suddenly leap out of the horizon, shining for thousands of miles in an instant, burning scorchingly.

Feeling the light converging above her eyelids, as if the curtain of the whole world had been lifted, she slowly opened her eyes.

The warm autumn sun shone through the silent room, and the clock hanging on the wall made a "tick-tock" sound. Is it really back this time?

Star Swirl remembers hearing Mr. X's voice the moment she burst through her dream, and she thought she would see him as soon as she woke up.

Her eyes adjust to the light, and Star Swirl sits up slowly. There was already a cushion behind her, and she chose a comfortable position to lean on it, making a sound against the hidden door.

"Is anyone there? Mr. X? ”

Still as quiet as ever, Star Swirl is a little stunned, not even sure if her surroundings are reality or dreams.

Touching the pocket of her clothes, the heart anchor that Bai Xiaohan specially set for her was not on her body. Fortunately, the energy lock was untouched on her wrist, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Relive" Star Swirl enters the wake-up password into the energy lock, but the image of the AI Lucky does not appear on the screen, and she fiddles with the energy lock repeatedly in confusion, but nothing happens.

Her body was very weak, and she simply leaned on the cushion and fell into deep thought.

Rationally thinking about it, it seems that the source of everything is because of Hermes's "Trinity". When she found out that the original Han Dongzhi of this time and space had already died, then the "other Han Dongzhi" who appeared in front of her was the space-time wanted person that Space had been pursuing.

"As for the dreams that Han Dongzhi can create..."She was frowning and thinking about it, when she suddenly heard a sound from outside.

Steady and powerful footsteps approached Star Swirl's room, and the door was pushed open.

“x！” Ignoring her limp legs and feet, she rolled over from the bed and plunged into his arms. Because of the lack of strength in his body, he couldn't control the weight of his entire body and pressed on him.

In the next second, the two fell to the ground in unison.

Seeing that her star-like eyes were covered with a thin layer of water vapor, as if she was about to burst into tears, his heart couldn't help but be moved.

"Don't cry, it's fine." His warm palm stroked her back and smiled, "I really think I'm a child." ”

She buried her face in his neck, took a deep breath of his good smell, and let go of her hanging heart, but still complained a little to him: "You'd better have a reasonable explanation for everything that happened in the dream." ”

"Han Dongzhi's matter was hidden from you before, it's not good for me," he was willing to obediently admit his mistake at this time, "but it's all just in case." ”

"I'd like to hear what it means to 'beware of what happens,' whether you can't trust me or can't trust my intelligence?" Star Swirl asked as she pulled away from his warm embrace.

Mr. X chuckled and tapped the tip of her nose with his finger: "What are you thinking about this little brain?" Haven't you been hungry after sleeping for so long? ”

He then got up and went to the kitchen, but he didn't answer Star Swirl's question.

"How long did I sleep?" Star Swirl quickly stepped on her shoes and chased him out, she didn't want to let him disappear from her vision for a quarter of an hour.

"In terms of deep sleep, it's about thirty hours." His figure was busy in the kitchen, and before long, the scent of it crept into Star Swirl's nose.

In addition to her favorite pasta with tomato sauce, there are also salads and steaks that some people love. When the delicacies were served one by one, the doorbell rang.

"It looks like the guy has arrived." Star Swirl said this, but opened the door delighted.

With concern on his face, Bai Xiaohan took Star Swirl's hand and looked it up and down, "You can be considered completely awake, you haven't woken up since you struggled several times this morning, you're really anxious to kill us!" ”

Seeing that her eyes were very sincere, Star Swirl suddenly remembered what Bai Xiaohan said to herself before she fell asleep, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly: "Teacher Bai, did I not disappoint you this time?" ”

Looking at the somewhat stubborn little girl in front of her, Bai Xiaohan nodded with a noncommittal smile: "I shouldn't look down on you, after all, you are the person chosen by X." ”

"Hey, don't you feel the food beckoning, it's still here." Lu Jingfan blocked Bai Xiaohan's sight from falling on Mr. X, and protested indignantly.

Star Swirl couldn't help but wonder, "I really imagined the temper of the masked man and Mr. Deer I met in the second dream. ”

"Don't, that's not me," Lu Jingfan spread his hands, "That guy in Clotho actually stole my identity to cosplay in my dream." ”

“clotho？ Can't you? Star Swirl's eyes widened in disbelief, she never expected that the masked man she had been with for more than thirty hours would be Mr. X's nemesis, Clotho.

"I'll have to ask 'your Mr. X.'" Lu Jingfan pouted at the man with a watery face, and concentrated on the food.

"Fill your stomach first, and I'll tell you slowly." The eyes of the two met, and Mr. X's good-looking blue eyes were full of smiles, and there was a hint of pampering in his words.

Star Swirl sucked a spaghetti, her sense of taste instantly awakened, and she wiped the entire plate of tomato pasta like a whirlwind, wiped the corners of her mouth in satisfaction, and looked at him with her hands on her cheeks, "I'm waiting to hear what you have to say." ”

"Actually, Hermes is a big problem for both of us brothers, so we finally reached a consensus on punishing him."

"Oh? So you switched identities before you entered the dream? Star Swirl asked.

"Clotho's ability to create dreams is comparable to Hermes, but he can't enter Han Dongzhi's dreams as his own, so it's easy for Hermes to detect."

"Then why use Mr. Deer's identity?" Star Swirl is puzzled.

"Because when he falls into the second dream, Clotho will also lose himself, and he needs my presence to remind him that he is in a dream, otherwise it will be very dangerous."

Star Swirl snapped, "So you showed up as a witness at the court trial that Hermes created to remind Clotho." ”

"There's one more thing I can't figure out," Star Swirl asked, shaking her little head, "When did Li Xuanyue and I switch identities?" ”

"I guess before entering the last room. Because after the trial, I re-exchanged identities with Clotho and appeared with you as a masked man, and I didn't feel 'connected' with you at that time.

Moreover, when I unlocked the password lock of the room later, I understood that it was because of Li Xuanyue's appearance that your form degenerated into a cat. ”
