Stray Chapter 114: Dawn

The entire street is now back to normal—

Although the pedestrians and vehicles are sparse, there is an endless stream. Basically, they never stop. Even when crossing the road, they have to wait for a while before they can pass.

The office buildings or other buildings on both sides are also constantly entering and leaving, and there is not a moment of silence... The horns of vehicles, the voices of passers-by, and the noise in the office buildings, in For a moment it was like playing a symphony.

Everything has returned to normal, and what just happened is like an unusually real fantasy, as if nothing happened, so that Hikigaya Hachiman's current thinking is completely confused.

He didn't know whether he had just fallen into a realm of another world, or just had hallucinations...

Is it because the weather is too hot, so I unknowingly suffer from heatstroke?

"Am I... dreaming?"

Under the shade of the green trees on the sidewalk not far from the exhibition hall, Hikigaya Hachiman is kneeling on the ground with his hands on the ground at this moment, and his thoughts are almost collapsed.

The surrounding vehicles, or pedestrians passing by, will look at it more or less curiously. I don't know what happened to the boy, but no one will stop to check.

After all, it doesn't seem like it's a big deal. If the scene is dripping with blood or something like a murder scene, then it's a different matter of course.

But now it's just a boy who seems to be kneeling on the ground very disappointed. Many people subconsciously think that it is probably an emotional dispute or something, which is not worthy of attention.

Hikigaya Hachiman didn't pay attention to the pedestrians and vehicles around. The sudden return of reality and the noisy movement made him feel chills and creepy, and his breathing seemed to stop completely, as if he was about to suffocate, and his heart was about to Squeezed flat. .

Even the scorching heat of summer felt by the skin is rapidly declining for no reason, and the senses of the whole body are gradually dimmed as if trying to escape from reality.

It's almost like... becoming a rigid corpse.

He didn't do anything, and wasn't easily knocked down by a being that was both human and definitely not human. Although it was said that when he rushed over, he never considered the possibility of success, but his subconscious undoubtedly already knew that he couldn't do anything.

Maybe I will be killed at random...

Maybe I will be knocked down easily, and then will attract ruthless ridicule...

It may also attract the attention of that inhuman thing and take him and Yubihama away together...

Anyway, there are too many possibilities. The only thing that cannot happen is that Hikigaya Hachiman bravely defeated that existence and rescued Yui Hama. Even if it is just a delusion, it will feel too fairy tale. Son.

Impractical.

Whimsical.

This is not a world where blood is king. It will not change because of his anger and deep regret.

No matter how angry, no matter how remorseful, if you can't win, you can't win, strong is strong, weak is weak, the same can't be changed, how to face it still has to be faced like this.

However, that inhuman thing didn't give Hikiya Hachiman any chance at all. He didn't say a word, and didn't bother to ridicule and attack him. He just grabbed Yui Hama and tore the space and left... …

The action is not in a hurry, but it is one step faster than Keiya Hachiman——

Even though the latter had already rushed over with his body faster than his brain at the time, he was strangely unable to catch up. He couldn't even touch the opponent, and even before he could get close, the opponent left...

In the final analysis, fast and slow, first and last, the use of these concepts by human beings is limited to distinguishing what has happened, and manipulating these concepts in turn makes it unimaginable for events to subvert changes.

Hikigaya Hachiman didn't know what kind of existence he was facing, he just clenched his molars quietly, trying hard to convince himself that all this was an illusion, maybe it was just because his brain suddenly short-circuited.

If you calm down and think about it, you should know that the kind of thing just now can't happen at all...

Although I was once a middle schooler, I longed for the special abilities and incredible settings that appeared in anime, video games, and light. I was thinking about my own mysterious power in my bed. I wrote a diary of the gods every day. Three Write a report to the government every month...

But that's all in the past, and now I have long been out of that special period, and I'm not the guy who doesn't want to wake up like Zaimuza.

That's right! If you think about it like this, you should understand that the kind of thing just now is impossible, so I definitely have hallucinations, so Yubihama must be fine now, and there is no trouble at all...

That's the way it is in theory! There can be no other surprises!

Hikigu Hachiman's face was pale and ugly, his mind was in a mess, and he couldn't control his thoughts at all. He instinctively tried to deny reality, hoping that everything was just a dream.

But...

But...

"Damn-!!"

The next moment, he punched the ground with a grim expression, leaving a dark red mark.

Then the boy took a deep breath, then stood up, turned to walk towards the exhibition hall, and took out the mobile phone in his pocket... First, find Mr. Hiratsuka, and then call the police. It's his only thought right now.

Although he seems very pale and powerless, he doesn't know what Hiratsuka-sensei can do in the face of such a thing, and he doesn't know what role the police can have. Whether they will believe such a ridiculous thing is also a question. ...But other than that, could he have any other way?

At this time, Hikigaya Hachiman can only try to grab the life-saving straw as much as possible. He must do something to try to save it, which is better than doing nothing at all.

While walking quickly towards the exhibition hall, the boy was quickly operating on his mobile phone, ready to make a call, but at this moment, a call happened to his mobile phone, and the ringing suddenly rang.

It was an unfamiliar call.

Hikigaya Hachiman was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously pressed the answer button, and then realized that he shouldn't continue to waste time at this time, so he quickly prepared to hang up.

But at this moment, a cold and slightly familiar voice came from the phone: "Hikigu-san, is Yuhihama-san by your side now?"

This voice... looks like Yukino Yukino's voice?

It took Hikigu half a second to react, and he said subconsciously: "No, not here, Yubihama has just been captured by a monster..."

When he said this, he stopped abruptly. This kind of thing sounds like a crazy person would say it? How could the other party believe it?

"As expected..."

"What?"

"It's nothing, you don't have to worry. If you want to save Yubihama, go to Moriya Shrine immediately..."

"Huh?"

"Forget it, come to the station right now, we'll wait for you first, it's not bad anyway..." Yukino Yukino sighed, made a quick decision, and didn't give the other party any reaction. The opportunity to hang up the phone resolutely.

“…”

“…”

There was a busy tone on the other side of the phone. Bi Keiya Hachiman opened his mouth wide, and his mind was even more confused. He thought about it in a daze, and suddenly agitated, he quickly turned around and ran in the direction of the station.

Although I don't know what's going on, Yukinoshita Yukino suddenly called at this time to ask Yubihama Yui's situation, and then directly believed the bizarre words he said without asking a single question. - This is enough to explain a lot of problems.

But this time is not the time to pursue investigations, and he doesn't have so much time to ask them one by one, and then make a decision after figuring it out. In that case, I'm afraid the day lily will be cold... He can only do it as fast as possible. Go to the place the other party said.

At this moment, Hikiya Hachiman is extremely excited, he feels that he has seen the dawn of hope in the darkness and despair!

……

……

The station is not far, and the entrance and exit are nearby, but I ran at the highest speed all the way, without slowing down halfway, so when Hikigaya Hachiman arrived at the destination, he was sweating profusely and his face was red.

Even though he was panting desperately, he still looked like he couldn't catch his breath.

"Do you need a break?"

Looking at the dead fish-eyed boy who was holding his knees and gasping for breath, Yukino Yukino asked calmly.

She is not too anxious, because she knows that it is useless to be anxious, and she probably got some information from Kato Megumi. Although she does not know what the current situation of Xia Ran is, she thinks that there will be no too big a problem.

The "Magician of the Realm" is the ultimate individual formed by the fusion of two people. It has the characteristics of two people at the same time. Seemingly different, but have something in common.

It is like a perfect yin and yang fish pattern, which is composed of yin and yang sides respectively. The big round Tai Chi is the magician of that realm, and the character held by "he" can be regarded as the one that divides yin and yang. middle line.

Neither biased towards the yin side nor towards the yang side, but it is a perfect point in the middle to maintain the balance of the two converging wills, so "he" is not Xia Ran, or not all Xia Ran... But At least it won't go against Xia Ran's bottom line and will.

Because the existence of "he" is based on the intelligence of the two people who have merged, this is an undeniable premise.

Of course, Yukinoshita didn't know such a specific thing. She just made a simple inference based on the information relayed by Kato Megumi-since that existence would not hurt Kato-san, then there is no reason to really hurt Yuihama Yui. .

Of course, this is something that cannot be absolutely certain, and it is likely to be a smoke bomb...

However, people can only infer and believe the more likely situation based on the existing information, rather than deny it in reverse, so there is no need to collect information to make inferences.

Just make up your own mind, just believe whatever you think it is... Anyway, the point is what you think it is, not what the intelligence shows.
