418. The Unconscious Realm(1/2)
In midsummer, heavy rains.
The gloomy sky seemed to collapse, because the weather was about to fall, but it seemed to be dark at five or six o'clock.
"Click-click..."
The girl was strode on the street in the rain, her light-colored school uniforms were rolling up, and the splashes were scattered.
After running all the way to the security booth at the school gate, she finally stopped and looked at the sky in confusion and felt at a loss.
"Xiaoya, don't you bring an umbrella?"
The guard in the security booth saw this beautiful girl running in the rain with her schoolbag on her head.
"Do you want an umbrella?"
The old man asked, taking out an umbrella from under the table.
"Thank you, no need, my brother will come to pick me up soon."
Xuan Ya smiled and refused, stroking her hair that was stained with water.
"Then why don't you wait in school?"
"..." Xuan Ya fell into silence a little dazed.
The old man was helpless and stuffed the umbrella back under the table and shook his head slightly.
This girl is good at everything, but she is a little too honest.
He knew the girl's brother because her brother often came to the school to pick her up after school. Although there was a sign of "Idle people entering" at the school gate, he could just say it and let someone enter the school gate.
And there should be a lot of boys in this school who are willing to hold an umbrella for her? What should I do if my girls get cold after getting wet?
Alas... the guard sighed. In fact, he didn't understand, because if he had such a beautiful daughter in his family, he would have been more strict when he was in high school. Otherwise, what if he was robbed by a pig in his family?
The girl stared blankly at the sky in the distance, staring blankly.
She didn't think of anything, but she seemed very cold in the eyes of others.
The boys passing by intentionally or unintentionally wanted to get close, perhaps because they wanted to give the umbrella to half of the beautiful girl, but seeing her in a daze without saying a word, she had no courage to step forward.
"Dingling..."
The cell phone ringtone kept ringing.
Xuan Hao, who was walking home from school, had just hung up his sister's "care for help" call and called again.
It was a call from parents.
It was raining a little hard today, so they might have to go home later.
After hanging up the phone, Xuan Hao pulled up his loose trouser legs again and held the umbrella to speed up his pace.
His sister forgot to bring an umbrella and was waiting for him at the school gate.
So he was going to take a shortcut.
It will be much faster to pass through the old community that blocks the school between him and his sister in front.
The small county town is not big, and he is very familiar with the community within a radius of several miles. He greeted the old man who was guarding the gate and then ran through the iron gate toward the community.
There are not many residents in old communities, and no one will go out on this rainy day. The raindrops as big as beans hit the cars parked on the roadside and are a little hindering. In addition, the road is unobstructed.
In front of him was the back door of the community. Xuan Hao felt that his pace was getting heavier and heavier, because the rain had soaked his entire trouser legs and his shoes had long been "dead".
I lowered my head and twisted the water, passed through the rusty small door, and behind it was a busy road. Just pass through this road and it was not far from my sister's school.
Xuan Hao looked up gently at the flashing traffic lights, waiting to cross the road.
The red light switched to the green light, waiting for the passing vehicles to stop. He was about to take a step, but was stunned by a figure.
It was a woman who seemed to be traveling through time, wearing a simple kimono, standing in the heavy rain at a loss, watching the traffic in front of her trembling.
"Is this cos?" Xuan Hao was a little confused.
He thought that there should be no comic exhibition in this small county town, and it was raining so heavily, what did this girl want to do here alone in the rain?
Perhaps because of the heavy rain, except for stopping vehicles waiting for traffic lights, there were almost no pedestrians on the road, so such an out-of-equipped woman seemed particularly abrupt.
"You..." Xuan Hao wanted to come forward to ask about the situation. Maybe there was any difficulty for the other party?
The woman held the street lamp pole on the side of the road and looked at everything around her vigilantly. The moment she saw Xuan Hao, she felt inexplicable fear in her eyes.
"It's over, it's over! Why is this happening?"
At this moment, the woman was extremely frightened.
Because the worst happened.
She was originally ordered to sneak into this person's dream to destroy the "spiritual core", but what the hell is there in this man's dream!?
The ground was hard and not sure what material was made of. Is the iron box that was racing on the road in front of me a "car"? It was running too fast!? In short, everything around me seemed extremely strange, and it was not as good as the things that the world should have in her memory.
The worst thing is... she should have avoided this man and went to the edge of her dream to look for the "spiritual core", but because the vehicles coming and going in front of her were blocked, she is now caught!
"It's over, it's over! What should I do!"
Looking at the man in front of him approaching step by step, the woman subconsciously retreated.
Xuan Hao looked at the woman not far away and felt a little depressed.
Do you look ugly? Or do you look like a bad person? You won’t scare people like this from such a distance, right?
Seeing the woman slowly retreating, Xuan Hao felt like he was drowsy. He just saw that the woman was soaked in miserable ways and wanted to do something good.
Does this woman have paranoid symptoms?
Xuan Hao felt offended and stopped.
After seeing him stop, the woman did stop too.
"Okay, I'm not worthy."
Xuan Hao shrugged, and it is important to step onto the zebra crossing, or pick up his sister.
"call……"
The woman finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the man's actions.
Although her appearance changed, she knew that this young man was probably her prey. When the old man was young, everything in this dream was false and no one would talk to her, because everything here was false, whether it was the architecture or the characters, it was false, and only the owner here would notice her.
Since it is in a dream, it is normal to become young.
This man seemed to have a deep level of "dream" and did not discover the abnormality of this world. This is just a dream centered on him. The man is very convinced that it is the real world at this moment, and even she, an outsider, was recognized by him as an ordinary passerby in the world.
Looking at Xuan Hao's back as he walked further and further away, a cruel smile appeared on the woman's face.
She took out the dagger hidden in her arms with a vicious expression.
Although I don’t know why, this man’s dream is too strange and she dares not walk around. So it would be quite difficult for her to go to the ‘unconscious realm’ to destroy the ‘spiritual core’.
But now it's different. She has discovered that this man has a spherical field centered on the dreamer herself. She now only needs to walk in the opposite direction of this man. Compared to the traffic coming and going in front of her, it is obvious that the road back is much safer.
Soon, the woman finally touched the edge of the dream.
It was an invisible "wall", you could see the scenery in the distance, but you couldn't continue walking forward.
She raised the dagger in her hand and stabbed it towards the invisible wall. The wall was torn apart like paper.
"here it is……"
The woman stared blankly at everything in front of her, her eyes full of horror.
······
The heavy rain is still ruthlessly falling.
But a smile suddenly appeared on the girl's face.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but the whole world seems to have become brighter because of her smile, and the sky covered with dark clouds seems to be less dark.
"elder brother!"
The girl waved her hand towards the figure who was rushing toward the distance holding an umbrella.
Hearing the familiar voice, Xuan Hao saw the girl standing next to the security room hiding from the rain.
Umbrellas of various colors were scattered at the school gate, and only she was hiding obediently under the eaves.
"Go home."
"Um."
Brother and sister walked in the rain with umbrellas.
When I got home, it was completely dark, and the rain outside the window continued to rain.
After taking a shower, Xuan Ya had already changed into her home clothes, sat on the sofa while rubbing her long wet hair with a towel while watching TV.
The sound of the oil pan sizzling in the kitchen.
After a long time, Xuan Hao, who walked out of the kitchen with the dish, looked at his lazy sister on the sofa, and a subtle feeling rose in his heart, but he quickly shook his head, walked to the living room and placed the dish on the dining table, "I'm having dinner."
"Don't you wait for your parents?"
