Is this still the same Ye Huayin whose martial prowess was unparalleled throughout history and who dominated the world...?
“Miss Ye.” The man’s words clearly confirmed Hanon’s identity. After helping Hanon up, he professionally, or rather coldly, pulled out a document and began to read aloud: “'Ye Hanon Welfare Foundation' was established in accordance with the will left by Mr. Takakaze Kiriji before his death, with the aim of taking care of Miss Ye’s living expenses and well-being. After the passing of the previous chairman, Mr. Ito, it is now managed by a new team of professional managers. As a lawyer, I have come to read the foundation’s new terms to Miss Ye. There are some changes compared to the provisions made by Chairman Ito before his death, but the foundation will continue to take good care of Miss Ye…”
Huh? Kiritsugu Takakaze's...last will? Ito...the former chairman? Passed away?
Whether it was the shock of this cruel reality or her own physical exhaustion, before the lawyer could finish reading the long and tedious legal clauses, Huayin's eyes rolled back, and she collapsed weakly onto the bed.
What exactly is happening in this world?
Time flies, the sun sets in the west, day turns into night, and Hana remains asleep in the hospital ward.
"Ugh—I have to work the night shift again, it's so tiring."
Late at night, the young nurse on duty stretched and complained to her older colleague, "That 'Sleeping Beauty' finally woke up for a little while, but then she fell unconscious again. I really envy her; she can rest all the time."
The older nurse glanced at her and said, "Hmph, if I made you sleep for seven out of ten days, and only allow you to move around for a short while during the three days you are awake, let's see if you can still be envious."
"Hehe, I was just saying." The nurse stuck out her tongue. "I wouldn't do this all the time, but if I could experience it for a year or two, it wouldn't be so bad. 'Sleeping Beauty' is super rich; I heard our sanatorium is so well-off because of her fees!"
The older nurse retorted again, "Even if you have money, you have to be alive to spend it... That Miss Ye also had a tragic background."
"Yes, rich people are so cold-hearted. Miss Ye was unconscious today, but the lawyer still read all the clauses verbatim. It's like he said that as long as Miss Ye was awake when he started reading, these clauses would be legally binding. How heartless."
"Sigh..." The older nurse sighed, "Actually, the Yingfeng family is not cold-hearted at all; on the contrary, they are very humane. It's just that Miss Ye is unlucky, which is why she has fallen to this state."
"Huh? Senior, could you tell me about this? I'm new and don't really know much about it~" The nurse, her gossip instincts piqued, leaned over to ask.
Seeing her bright, sparkling eyes, the older nurse couldn't bear to refuse, and besides, the night shift was indeed boring, so she began to tell her story: "Miss Ye is of mixed Chinese and Japanese descent. Her mother's surname is Takakaze, and she is from the Takakaze family, a major conglomerate behind our Japanese motorcycle tycoon, Motorbike. Her brother is none other than the previous head of the family, Takakaze Kirito, who is one of the wealthiest people in all of Japan..."
"I know, I know, my boyfriend's motorcycle is made by their company~"
"Don't interrupt!" The older nurse was slightly annoyed, but the younger nurse quickly stuck out her tongue and continued listening: "Two years ago, Ms. Ye's parents died in a car accident, and Ms. Ye was also seriously injured. Although she managed to save her life by spending a lot of money, her brain was severely damaged. She was in a deep sleep most of the time, and when she occasionally woke up, it didn't last long. So she stayed in our sanatorium until now."
After pausing to take a sip of water, the older nurse continued, "Miss Ye has no relatives on her father's side, and on her mother's side, she only has one uncle, President Yingfeng. Coincidentally, President Yingfeng also has no children, making her the sole heir of the Yingfeng family, and naturally she receives the highest level of care. However, things took a turn for the worse. President Yingfeng only cared for Miss Ye for about half a year before he died in the explosion on Yuanliu Island. If he hadn't left a will beforehand, entrusting the family's assets to a foundation, Miss Ye would have had no one to take care of her!"
"Wow, the explosion at Yuriyu Island! I know about this!" the nurse exclaimed. "A year and a half ago, a large number of wealthy people and political figures gathered at Yuriyu Island for some unknown reason. Rumors circulated that they were watching some underground boxing match, or that they were holding a secret meeting. However, the government denied this to the public, saying only that an accidental explosion occurred during a vacation, killing and injuring many people. It turns out that President Takakaze was among them!"
"That incident caused a major earthquake in the political and business circles of Japan. President Takakaze wasn't even near the top of the list of the deceased..." The older nurse sighed again and took another sip of water. "After President Takakaze passed away, his family's old butler, Mr. Ito, became the chairman of the foundation, responsible for managing the Takakaze family's vast assets. Mr. Ito was a good man! He visited Miss Ye every week, and we old employees respected him very much... Unfortunately, Mr. Ito was old and too sad, and he passed away not long ago."
Oh, what kind of world is this? Kanon is practically a cursed star!
Author's Note: This should be the third update today, I'm trying my best! From this chapter onwards, we'll officially enter the final storyline... Actually, as mentioned before, this part of the story isn't short, so please read on~
Section 912, Chapter 903: Dream - Ending (Part 2) - Night Ghost
"That's so tragic..." After telling her all that, the nurse was now filled with sympathy for Hanon: "All her loved ones are gone, and she's so young to be hit like this. She hasn't even started her life yet!"
"Yes, the foundation has changed its management. Although it can still take care of Miss Ye, the human touch is far less than when Mr. Ito was there. For now, we can only hope that Miss Ye will recover soon, but unfortunately, given her condition, this can only be a beautiful wish."
After saying such a long thing, and having drunk quite a bit of water, the older nurse stood up and said, "I need to go to the restroom."
The upscale sanatorium didn't have many patients, and the surrounding environment and security were excellent. It was very quiet when no one was around at night, with only the pendulum clock in the corridor swinging "tick-tick" to mark the passage of time.
"Why hasn't the senior nurse come back yet?" The young nurse waited and waited, but the older nurse didn't come back. She gradually became anxious. "Oh dear, it's so late at night. It's a little scary that the senior nurse isn't back."
"Tap tap, tap tap..." The pendulum continued to tick, and finally the little nurse couldn't hold back any longer: "No, I have to go see my senior!"
She mustered her courage and walked towards the bathroom, rubbing her arms as she went: "Ugh, it's summer, but it gets a bit chilly at night."
The sanatorium's bathroom was large and luxurious, but the lights were off at night. When the nurse entered, she saw no one at first glance, but after walking around the sink, she saw two figures on the other side of the sink!
"Huh? Who is it?" The young nurse doubted that she was seeing things, so she quickly rubbed her eyes and turned on the light. Sure enough, there were not two people, but only one person, the older nurse, who was lying on the ground.
"Senior!" The young nurse immediately rushed over to check on the situation. She saw that the older nurse's eyes were half-open, her body was ice-cold, she was trembling slightly, and she was breathing cold air but couldn't speak. She was exhaling but not inhaling, and her face was turning blue.
What's even stranger is the older nurse's eyes. They seem to have seen something extremely terrifying. Some are staring blankly, some are cowering, and some are going crazy. If the Cthulhu God in the story really existed, I guess ordinary people would be no different after seeing him!
But the naive young nurse didn't think too much about it. Based on her medical knowledge, she judged that the older nurse might be suffering from a heart attack or a sudden epileptic seizure. While shaking her senior, she frantically performed first aid, working up a sweat.
She didn't even notice that the sweat on her forehead was cold sweat, completely devoid of warmth.
Yes, this restroom was unusual from the start; its temperature... was way too low!
Although it would be comfortable to walk into such a room in the summer, the entire sanatorium is centrally air-conditioned, so how could the temperature in the room be significantly lower than the rest?
That's right, something's definitely fishy...
"Hiss, hiss hiss—woo." The bathroom light flickered and then went out.
"Huh? What's wrong?" The nurse squatted down and looked up at the light bulb, unaware that a pale, thin arm reached out from the darkness and grabbed her shoulder—
"Huh?" The nurse suddenly turned around.
The space behind him was empty except for the bathroom sink; there was no one in sight.
"Buzz—" The bathroom light came on again, and the nurse went to check on it: "What's wrong? Is the voltage unstable?"
Suddenly, a hand grabbed the nurse's hand! It was ice-cold!
"Waaaaah!" The nurse was finally terrified and collapsed to the ground with a thud, tears streaming down her face!
But the one who grabbed her arm was none other than the elderly nurse lying on the ground. With a "ga," she resumed breathing.
"Oh, senior! Thank goodness, you're alright!" The young nurse cheered, throwing herself into the older nurse's arms and crying happily, "Waaah, you suddenly fell ill, I thought your life was in danger, waaaah..."
"What happened to me..." The older nurse felt her mind was in complete chaos and couldn't remember what had happened. She only remembered seeing a pair of eyes while washing her hands. They were cold and seemed to be full of malice. Then she felt dizzy and collapsed.
But as a senior colleague, she patted the young nurse on the back and said, "I'm fine, I'm sorry to have worried you."
Whether they were older or younger nurses, they all overlooked one thing: the temperature in the restroom had returned to normal, and the young nurses' tears were warm, no longer as cold as before.
It's as if something from before has left...
"Tap, tap." The pendulum in the corridor was still swinging lonely, but soon a figure passed by in front of it, making "tap" footsteps, breaking the silence of the night.
This person was tall and thin, dressed in pure black armor, but his exposed skin was crystal white, like jade porcelain.
Beside this person, a soft complaint drifted out: "Why did you stop me?"
It was a woman's voice, full of longing and sorrow, making one imagine her appearance just by listening to her voice—she must be a seductive and alluring girl.
But... where is the woman who made that sound? There was only the black-armored man walking silently alone in the corridor.
So, the person in black armor is actually that woman, only with a different voice and appearance? No, then who is she talking to?
Sure enough, it wasn't the person in black armor. She spoke up—the voice was that of a woman, but completely different from the alluring woman. Her tone was icy cold and devoid of emotion: "I'm here to do serious business. Don't cause any trouble."
"Tch, you want to get down to business, but you won't let me have any fun. How boring." The seductive woman's voice seemed to drift in and out of sight, as if floating in mid-air: "I'm so bored~ I really want to kill someone~ Let me vent~ Waaah~"
"Shut up!" the black-armored man shouted, and the alluring woman really stopped talking. She said meekly, "Alright, alright, you're the BOSS, I'll do as you say. After all, the world is a dog-eat-dog world, and the one with the strongest fist gets the most say."
The corridor returned to calm, and the man in black armor continued forward until he arrived at a ward.
Pushing open the door, there lay Hana.
"Ugh... um..." Seemingly sensing the arrival of the black-armored man, Hanon unusually awoke from her unconsciousness, her eyes vacant, and asked haltingly in a voice she hadn't spoken in a long time, "Who... are you..."
"Shh." The man in black armor extended a finger and pressed it against Huayin's lips: "No need to say more."
Her hand naturally covered Hana's soft cheek: "Trust me, it will be over soon."
After saying that, the man in black armor took off his helmet with one hand, lifted Hana's chin with the other, and kissed her deeply!
"Ugh... ugh..." Hanon was completely weak and couldn't resist the black-armored man's kiss. The kiss was so deep, so long, so intoxicating. Hanon felt like her soul was being sucked away. Her body was getting lighter and lighter, and her consciousness was getting more and more blurred. Her neck felt cool, and something was flowing down... it was blood.
Hanon's throat had been slit open by the black-armored man at some point.
But Kanon felt no pain, only a deep sense of powerlessness, powerless to act or think, as everything was passing by rapidly.
That's it, I'm so tired, I'll just go back to sleep...
Hana's empty gaze finally swept over the face of the man in black armor. She was familiar with that face; she had gazed at it countless times in the mirror, for it was her own face.
The man in black armor... is also Kanon.
A kiss can kill a person. When the black-armored Hana released the bedridden Hana, the tragic Hana, who could be described as a cursed star, had lost her life. The bed was filled with blood flowing from her neck, as if she were lying in a field of blooming roses.
"Hehe, another one~" the seductive woman's voice rang out again: "How does she taste?"
Hei Jia Hua Yin closed her eyes and focused her mind, ignoring her. A few minutes later, she opened her eyes again and said in the same cold tone, "As bland as a blank sheet of paper."
"I guessed so~" The alluring woman chuckled softly, "After all, she's been lying in bed all this time, killing her might be a relief for you~"
Hei Jia Huayin was clearly aloof and didn't respond at all. After a moment of contemplation, she seemed to be savoring something, and then said, "But there's a dream that's not very clear... I really want to have it too."
Author's Note: These two chapters are the beginning of the final chapters; some details will be revealed later.
I'm working on Chapter 3, see you in a bit.
Section 913, Chapter 904: Returning to Modern Times...
"Hmm..." Hanon opened her eyes.
Was it a dream? Those battles, those eras, those relatives, friends, lovers, enemies...
If it was a dream, it was a wonderful dream! I was still very moved when I woke up.
Having traversed several eras and used the bodies of many ancestors, this latest body is simply amazing. Almost the moment she opened her eyes, Hanon completely mastered it—if it's that fast, then it's definitely her own body!
"I'm back?" Hana's eyes darted around as she looked at her surroundings—it was Takakaze's house, and she had been sleeping in this bedroom for two years.
"I'm back!" Hanon jumped up with a somersault, her control of her body was so smooth and seamless, it felt amazing!
"Long live!"
Hanon got moving, running and jumping around the room, even using her "Unlimited Transformation" technique—although the details were slightly different from before, she could control her body with complete ease.
After running around wild for quite a while, Hanon finally calmed down and started thinking: "Hmph, I don't know how long I've been lying here. There's not a single person by my bedside. Also, I don't have a single small wound on my body. Have the injuries from my battle with Musashi healed yet? Those kinds of injuries might take ten days to half a month to recover..."
