Japanese Terrorist: What? I'll fight Hellstar!

Amamiya Rin suddenly opened her eyes.

All I could see was an unfamiliar white ceiling.

The body felt even heavier.

The fatigue from a hundred days of hard work still lingered in his body, but the feeling of being unable to get up was even more severe.

"Mr. Amamiya, you're awake. Are you feeling unwell?"

Having been instructed to come to the ward early in the morning to observe Amamiya Rin's condition, the nurse noticed that Amamiya Rin had opened her eyes and quickly came over to ask her with concern.

"You are... Oh right, I'm still in the hospital."

As Amamiya Rin looked at the nurse, his bewildered gaze gradually cleared.

After processing the memories of the past 100 days, he realized that he had been dreaming for 100 days.

Now, the dream is over.

The nurse left in a hurry.

Not long after, the ward door was pushed open, and Dr. Kuroda walked in, followed by Professor Matsuura, who had an odd aura.

"Amamiya-kun, how are you feeling? Was it a dream?"

Professor Matsuura overtook Dr. Kuroda and quickly walked to the bedside, carefully observing Amamiya Rin's complexion with bright, piercing eyes, as if he were about to solve a difficult problem.

In fact, for Professor Matsuura, the current subject of discussion is precisely the one that he is most concerned about.

"It's partially successful. I can move around in my dreams, but it's incredibly tiring, requiring ten times the effort. Also, the safety mechanism you designed for me is still in place, and it will appear by my side when I need it most. However, the safety mechanism isn't very strong; it's only slightly stronger than when I'm healthy..."

Amamiya Rin took a deep breath and carefully explained her condition to Professor Matsuura.

Having spent 100 days in the dream world, Amamiya Rin also discovered many hidden rules, such as the fact that he could only influence the real world.

For example, Saeko Busujima's strength, the configuration of the explosive pack, and Shizuka Marikawa's massage techniques are all based on the theoretical knowledge mastered by the dreamer.

Even the taste of the food.

In her dream, Amamiya Rin ate some things that she had only seen before but never tasted, but they tasted like plain water.

Professor Matsuura held a notebook, taking notes on Amamiya Rin's experiences. His owl-like eyes gleamed, and his facial muscles twitched occasionally, revealing his excitement.

"That's fantastic! Amamiya-kun, if your condition is stable and controllable, it's equivalent to a kind of immortality of consciousness! The richer your experiences, the more realistic your dream world will be. The vast time span of dreams can also be used to learn knowledge. As long as you memorize... no! You don't even need to memorize it. Just reading it once will allow your subconscious to manifest in your dreams. Human civilization will leapfrog into the next era because of the 'Long Dream'!"

Dr. Kuroda and Rin Amamiya were taken aback by Professor Matsuura's agitated attitude.

Dr. Kuroda researched the "Long Dream" simply to free humanity from the fear of death, and Amamiya Rin was only trying to survive; neither of them had ever imagined such a grand ambition.

"Let's put that aside for now. Dr. Kuroda has a lot of [Long Dream] material. We can study it slowly when we get back. Right now, I need help more."

Amamiya Rin was unmoved by Professor Matsuura's vision.

Can scientific research help us deal with the human-headed balloon? Can it help us deal with the hellish star? Can it help us deal with the vortex?

Those unsolvable mysteries and science are completely parallel lines!

"I'm sorry, I lost my composure... I was thinking too naively."

Professor Matsuura pushed up his glasses and rubbed his square face with both hands to calm himself down.

"[Long Dream]... The danger of this thing may far exceed my imagination. The ethical issues it touches upon are far more terrifying than human cloning technology."

Although he was initially captivated by the "Long Dream," Professor Matsuura, being both a forensic pathologist and a hypnotist, possessed a deeper understanding of human nature than most. Once he calmed down, he realized just how terrifying the "Long Dream" would be if it were truly applied to the development of civilization.

Amamiya Rin guessed, "By then, probably no one will want to stay in the real world, right?"

【Long Dream】+Controllable hypnosis, equivalent to a limited Tsukuyomi. When a person has a world where they can do whatever they want, who would want to live in the real world?

Professor Matsuura turned to look at Amamiya Rin and Dr. Kuroda, his face stern, and said seriously, "Both of you, I expect you to keep the secret of [Long Dream], especially you, Kuroda, you absolutely must not use [Long Dream] on anyone else!"

Dr. Kuroda hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

He was clearly unwilling to give up on [Changmeng] so easily.

Amamiya Rin glanced at Dr. Kuroda and said to Professor Matsuura, "Professor Matsuura, could you provide me with some textbooks on hypnosis? I can't trouble you to come and hypnotize me every day, so I plan to learn hypnosis myself once and for all and hypnotize myself."

Being controlled by others is never a good thing. In Junji Ito's worldview, no one knows if humanity will still exist the next day, so it's best to master your own professional skills.

OK.

Professor Matsuura acted swiftly and left Morita Hospital immediately.

More than half an hour later, as Amamiya Rin was doing rehabilitation exercises with the help of a nurse, there was a knock on the door of her ward from the outside.

A strange man in a suit walked in, carrying a paper bag.

The man bowed slightly: "Excuse me, are you Mr. Amamiya Rin? I am a staff member of Kamone University. I was entrusted by Professor Matsuura to deliver these teaching materials to you."

"Yes, that's me. Professor Matsuura?"

Amamiya Rin indicated that the other person could place the paper bag on the bedside table.

The man placed the paper bag on the bedside table and said to Amamiya Rin, "The Metropolitan Police Department has discovered a new victim's body. There seems to be new progress in the recent serial murder case. The professor is conducting an emergency autopsy. He asked me to tell you that he will be coming over after 8 PM tonight."

"I see, thank you for your help."

Amamiya Rin nodded slightly to the man and said politely.

The man bowed slightly, politely took his leave, and departed.

Yu Gonglin didn't rush to read the book. Instead, with the help of the nurse, she continued her rehabilitation training until her body reached its limit, at which point the nurse helped her into bed.

Leaning against the headboard, the nurse helped fix the adjustable bedside table in front of Amamiya Rin and took out five textbooks from her bag.

The book included "Hypnosis," "A Guide to Lucid Dreaming," "Hypnosis: Theory and Practice," "Hypnotherapy: An Ericksonian Perspective," "Hypnosis: Principles and Applications," and a slip of paper with Professor Matsuura's reading order.

Although Amamiya Rin's arm was weak, after two days of rehabilitation training, she could still do simple things like turning the pages of a book.

He put his arms on the table, picked up "Hypnosis" and began to read.

At night, Professor Matsuura arrived at the ward on time and used hypnosis on Amamiya Rin, guiding him into a dream.
