Teresa won't starve

Thinking of this, Teresa quickly shook her head, forget about ghosts and ghosts.

In her current state, she probably wouldn't even survive an episode if she met her.

434 "Little Garden of Mist ([-])"

It's a pity that Teresa didn't encounter any monsters until dawn, but she got lost.

When the fog cleared, Teresa realized that she was standing under a red torii gate, in the middle of the mountain path up and down the mountain, which made her understand that if she continued to go up, she should reach the shrine.

"Shrine!"

Teresa looked at the end of the stairs going up the hill, sighed, then turned and walked down the hill.

......

The way down the mountain is often easier than the way up the mountain. Even Teresa's current body is absolutely nothing.

The premise is that it's over.

......

......

......

......

"what's the situation!?"

Her feet were numb all the way, and Teresa didn't walk out of the downhill path.Even when she turned her head, she could see the torii gate behind her, as if she was telling her that she had been standing still all the time.

This forced her to stop her meaningless behavior, and turned around to look at this torii, which was ordinary on the surface and ordinary to the touch.

Or is the problem not with the torii?

Teresa stood there, touched her cheeks and thought for a while, and finally decided to go up and have a look.

What she didn't expect was that going up the mountain this time was no longer the same as before, it was just a very ordinary walk, and there was no more endless road.

After stepping on thirteen stone steps, we came to the gate of the shrine.

Teresa looked back and looked down, but was surprised to find that there was no so-called 'downhill road' at all, only the thirteen steps she walked.In other words, the thirteen steps are the so-called downhill road.

So what happened to the way before?

The world always feels weirder.

Teresa raised her foot, trying to see what would happen if she went down now.But after thinking about it, he took it back, and decided to see what this shrine means first.

She first glanced left and right at the surrounding area surrounded by brick walls, and then quickly walked to the main body of the shrine directly in front of her, and saw a place that was originally used for blessings, where a familiar-looking black Japanese sword was enshrined in a knife holder.

The moment Teresa looked at the knife, she seemed to recall something, and almost instinctively stretched out her hand to grab her.

[Don't touch it! 】

As if there was a voice coming from behind, Teresa, who was startled, immediately took it back, and looked behind her reflexively - but no one saw it...

Teresa was still worried and walked a few steps on the way back and forth, and even looked at the bottom of the steps a few more times, but nothing was gained.

This made her attribute everything to her being too sensitive.

"Forget it, let's go back and look at that... knife!?"

As soon as Teresa turned her head, she found that the knife holder enshrined in the shrine, and even the knife on it, were gone. Even if she risked being found and beaten, she took the things that could be dismantled in front of the shrine with bare hands. I took them all down and looked through them, but still couldn't find the knife.

Not only was there no gain in surviving such a busy trip, but it also made her very tired, so she simply sat down in front of the shrine, rubbing her sore arms that would tremble with a little effort.

"This physique is really amazing, and it's too fragile..."

Goo...

"..."

Well, it's hungry.

Thinking about it carefully, not to mention that it's time for breakfast, she also stayed up all night, so it's normal for her to be hungry.

Why don't you go find something to eat?

Teresa thought about it, and felt that there seemed to be no other way.

So I had almost rested my body, and walked down the thirteen steps step by step, and finally came to the outside of the shrine, without being stuck on the mountain path like before.

The road down the mountain happened to be close to the big road, and there were various road signs on the road, so Teresa could roughly know which direction to go, so she followed the guidance.

435 "Little Garden of Mist ([-])"

After walking about 500 meters, a tram chased up from behind, and when it was about to pass by Teresa, it suddenly stopped beside her and opened the door of the tram.

Teresa stood in front of the tram door and didn't go up immediately, but after waiting for a while, she found that the tram had no intention of leaving.He tentatively poked his head in, took a quick look and found that there was no one there—not even the driver.

Of course, this is not a hearse.

In fact, these two trams do not have a driver's seat at all. It looks like a remote-controlled automatic tram.

It was only because of the set program that it detected that someone happened to be on this section of the road, so it stopped right beside Teresa.

Teresa stood there hesitating for a while, and after her stomach growled again, she had no choice but to get into the car with her increasingly weak legs, and sat in a seat close to the door, so that it would be convenient for her to slip away in case of any accident.

Fortunately, there were no surprises.

Teresa sat safely all the way, and got off the car after stopping at the next station.

There was a small supermarket just nearby, so I went straight in and looked for a bento that suits my taste in the discounted bento section.

But it seems that the time is wrong, the price of bento at this time is very high, it is not affordable by the few coins in her pocket, so she can only pay attention to those small buns.

I don't know if this little thing can feed her stomach.

......

After some "selection" and "price difference comparison", Teresa took a packaged taiyaki and a bottle of pop soda. The total price was less than 300 yen, which was almost the price of the cheapest bento.

The bento in the Naihe supermarket is basically around 1000 yen, which she really can't afford.

In the end, I had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, and bought something that was just a snack to satisfy my hunger.

With the selected products, I came to the bar to prepare for settlement.

It's just that for some reason, the owner of the bar or the lady clerk was not there, which made her think that she was out on something, so she just stood there and waited for a while.

However, after waiting for a quarter of the minute hand to move, Teresa still did not see the lady clerk.

She was so hungry that she couldn't bear it, so she had to put the change on the bar counter, then took the things she bought, sat on the stone bench outside the supermarket for people to rest, and started to sip soda and snapper. The fish is cooked and eating his own breakfast.

Maybe lunch too.

......

With the puff pastry sandwiched with sweet bean paste, Teresa's empty stomach was finally filled.Although she still felt that she didn't have enough to eat, at least it wasn't as uncomfortable as it was at first.

"I knew I would have brought more money before going out."

Perhaps the "main body" is too perfect, even the hunger is so low that it is almost non-existent. In addition, the power of creation makes her never short of money, so that she asked her to "bring more money when going out". Forgot about it.

I didn't expect that after so many years, she would be able to experience it again.

The world is unpredictable!

She continued to sit and rested for a while, knowing that she was not suitable for exercise after eating, and planned to continue walking after eating to see if she could find the way back.

If Sakura-san found out, she would be worried to death, right?

This time I will probably be beaten up when I go back, right?

Thinking of this in her heart, Teresa was not afraid at all, and she didn't even regret her behavior at all, as if she had turned into a standard brat.

"Forget it, what are you thinking about so much? Let's talk about it when we go back first."

Teresa, who had rested, finally had the strength to continue walking.

So he followed the direction he had found before and continued to walk towards the place he had originally planned.

It's just that she didn't notice—

The shadow under her feet remained in a sitting position near the supermarket.

436 "It's the second week all of a sudden?"

The real world, the nameless town, the coffee shop with no name.

Teresa, who was originally lying on the table and dreaming a 'beautiful dream', seemed to be frightened suddenly, she sat upright in a 'bas', and her pair of blue eyes with white pupils and '+' were rounded.

After staring straight at her for a while in a daze, her hazy consciousness slowly turned around.

"This is... I'm back!?"

After looking around again, Teresa confirmed the matter.

It's just that she didn't understand why she woke up suddenly, and couldn't help but began to recall what had happened.

"I remember......"

She only remembered that she was playing someone, and in order to find clues to solve the puzzles of that world, she chose to take the route of exploration, but was accidentally detoured into it.

After that, things developed according to the trend, and the girl she played was just walking home in an ordinary way.

Just passing by that supermarket and eating that meal...she died inexplicably?

She didn't even know how she died.

Thinking back carefully, I found that although there were many strange things that happened along the way, she didn't suffer any harm because of them. On the contrary, she entered the end of death after eating normally.

Does that mean—

"Did I take something I shouldn't take, eat something I shouldn't eat...?"

But with her physical condition at that time, if she didn't eat, she might starve to death on the side of the road, and the ending would not be much better.

In other words-

"Is the route of the expedition wrong?"

But it's useless for Teresa to understand now!

From the preserved memory, she knew that she couldn't bring the memory related to that dream into it, which meant that even if she knew that this path was wrong, she would probably go to the wrong future again because she didn't have this memory.

"So, people like me who are not suitable for being a detective are really not suitable for playing detective games."

But there is no way.

At present, the only person who can break the situation is her, and the only person who can save Cocolia can only be her.

Even if she didn't even remember to find Cocolia after she went in, it was even more impossible to remember what Cocolia looked like, so where did she find it?

"Aaaaaaaaaa!!!"

Teresa, who couldn't seem to find any way to break the situation, felt annoyed for a while.Even she just let it go, anyway, Cocolia is not her mother.

But no!

No matter whether it is Natasha or the agreement with Ah Lin, she is not allowed to escape at this time.

She must and can only rise to the challenge.

"No matter what difficulties we encounter, we must face it bravely, Ollie." (not the whole sentence)

With a good reading + weak tone, she said the lines she didn't know where she learned to cheer herself up; Teresa took a few deep breaths of the cold air mixed with purple mist, and the expression on her face became firm again.

"I am their hope. Only I cannot and will not be allowed to despair at this time, otherwise what should they do?"

Teresa didn't continue to worry about gains and losses.

Guided by the hypnotic substance in the purple mist, Teresa's consciousness became hazy again, and when she was about to fall asleep again, a picture suddenly popped up in her mind (Note).

With a flick of his wrist, he took out a strange black demon knife from the imaginary space and held it in his hand.

"Hmmmmmmm!?"
