Faced with the blackened heroine, they actually stopped time

Yuri Kiyono, who lost her mother, left her family, and would rather live a lonely life than forget her mother... is really important.

How could she disappear so easily?

Even if it was just a possibility, he couldn't gamble and couldn't be sure.

So he must make the best choice.

And now he...had a choice.

The boy smiled and then looked at Kiyono Yuri.

He said.

"I just want to say goodbye to you forever."

Having said that, he took a step forward.

He did not state the choice, nor did he push the person in front of him.

But towards the edge.

Walk towards the edge of the hot pit that seemed to be emitting steam.

She stared at the other person's back blankly, looking at him without stopping.

Even a lunge!

"rub!"

In the sight of the woman, the young man jumped down without hesitation or any regrets!

Only faint sounds of his last cry could be heard in the air.

"Manager Kiyono! You are important. I can prove it."

You are very important.

I can sacrifice myself to prove it.

The whole world became empty and lonely.

Only the sound of evaporation remains.

Annihilated in the air.

Disappeared in the lava...

4: It’s just a dream, right? (Additional chapter 10!)

"Crash-"

"Crash-"

It's the sound of waves.

Oreki Xian opened his eyes somewhat confusedly.

What you see is the incomparably blue sky with golden sunlight shining through it, and all around you can hear the sound of waves rolling and tumbling.

Waves?

Oreki Gen was somewhat puzzled.

My memory tells me that I jumped into the lava without hesitation when I was faced with a critical choice...

Even now I can still feel that extreme burning sensation.

The whole body and the whole soul seemed to be burned to ashes and melted, just like the molten iron in iron smelting.

This feeling was unprecedented, and Oreki Gen even thought that he had truly experienced what it felt like to die... It seemed to be similar, anyway, probably no one wanted to die in this way.

too painful.

It's worse than torture.

It's not a lie at all. I thought it was just a design, but it turned out to be real... It couldn't be more real. How could this be a dream? It's simply a torture chamber!!

But what is the situation now?

Have you arrived in heaven?

"you're awake?"

The sudden words made Oreki Gen stunned for a moment, and then he saw a familiar face appear in his sight.

Young and soft, with delicate features and eyes filled with worry.

Looking at myself nervously and surprised.

Oreki Gen was shocked at first.

"Store manager?"

He struggled to get up, because he was not sure at first whether the other person was Kiyono Yuri herself, or the lingering mysterious existence.

But the other party put his hand on his chest and forced him to lie down.

Only then did Oreki Xian realize that the place where he was lying seemed to be the other person's thigh, and around him was not only the rough sea surface, but also a white yacht.

The current situation is that the two of them are like a newlyweds on their honeymoon, drifting on the boundless ocean.

The sun shines on your face and the sea breeze blows gently. It is neither hot nor cold, but a very enjoyable and lazy temperature.

Oreki Xian was resting his head on the other's slender thigh...

The young man hesitated.

Looking at the woman above his cheek, she was no longer naked, but was wearing the bikini that he saw at the beginning.

But now there is not much shyness on Qingno Yuri's face, or it can be said that she has been able to restrain herself. Of course, maybe it is covered up by other emotions.

At least Oreki Gen could feel that the other party had no ill intentions and seemed... not the kind of person that people should be afraid of.

"Take a break. You've worked hard."

She spoke softly, glanced at Oreki Gen, then looked away as if escaping, her cheeks showing a slight blush, looking like they were about to bloom, but hadn't yet, with some green flowers remaining.

Gorgeously beautiful.

Oreki Gen hesitated for a moment and looked at the other person's delicate chin.

"Manager...it's you, right?"

He said so.

It seems that he is still unsure about what is happening in front of him.

And Kiyono Yuri smiled, looked down at Oreki Gen, and couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke the boy's hair.

Her face was as gentle as that of an elder sister.

"Of course it's me...Don't be afraid, she's gone."

It was obvious that Kiyono Yuri also knew something, but Oreki Gen was a little confused.

"Disappeared? Who is she?"

The other party's identity is still a mystery. Until now, Oreki Gen has not been able to confirm whether the other party is another self that Kiyono Yuri herself is not aware of.

Or is it a product that only exists after the ability to control dreams was born?

Kiyono Yuri thought about it for a moment, then shook her head slightly distressed.

"I don't know, but she told me... in a sense, she is me. But I don't have schizophrenia symptoms, so there is no second personality, right?"

Look at each other's appearance.

It didn't seem like a fake, and Oreki Gen was indeed a little tired. The burning pain seemed to still remain in his heart. He took a deep breath.

The body finally relaxed.

"I don't know, but everyone should have several personalities. It's just that most normal people won't let their personalities control themselves. It's just that no one has only one side, so it might be normal to have a second you. After all...anything can happen in a dream."

The second personality is something with more possibilities.

But Oreki Gen actually has a new idea that he hasn't told Kiyono Yuri.

That is, this may not just be the second personality of Yuri Kiyono.

Because the other party revealed an important piece of information, when she revealed the existence of Sakuraba Mizuki and others, Oreki Gen realized that the other party controlled not only Kiyono Yuri's dreams, but also his own.

Therefore, it is very likely that the appearance of this person is triggered when I and Kiyono Yuri enter the dream together.

Then this product might have been created by him and Kiyono Yuri together, but they themselves were not aware of it.

This sounds a bit shocking, but it doesn't seem important now.

Oreki Gen couldn't sense that person's presence, and his final performance and Kiyono Yuri's words told him that, in a sense, she... might have been solved.

Once that choice is made, it seems destined to lead to one ending.

I made the right choice.

Kiyono Yuri let out a long sigh.

"That's true. Anything could happen... Do you think we have solved this problem? Can I finally control my dreams?"

"Would you know if you try it?"

Oreki Gen said with a smile.

Kiyono Yuri looked at the boy strangely.

"Try?"

"Since this is your dream and you want to control it, it means you can do everything in this dream, so you can do whatever you want."

"Is that so...I want to see a rainbow."

She looked up after she said this.

The two of them saw together that under the bright sunshine, a rainbow appeared and crossed the sky.

Very broad and even colorful.

Kiyono Yuri lowered her head with a look of surprise.

"Really? I...I want to see snow!"

The moment this sentence came out.

Snowflakes like goose feathers began to fall from the sky. The sun had not disappeared, and the rainbow had not disappeared, but the snowflakes were falling.

Kiyono Yuri was grinning so hard that she couldn't stop, and looked at Oreki Gen with surprise.

"I...I can really do this!!"

Oreki Gen nodded with satisfaction.

"Congratulations, Manager Qingye."

"Doing this... does it mean that Qinghua can be saved?"

She was obviously still thinking about her original purpose, which of course might be the most important thing to her now.

It was also a huge stone weighing on her heart.

Oreki Gen was not so optimistic.

"This may just mean that you have a chance to try, but it doesn't mean you will succeed. You still need to think about it. If something like this happens again, if such a person appears in your and Qinghua's dream..."

"You mean there could be another me?"

Kiyono Yuri frowned.

Oreki Gen shook his head.

"I can't be sure, but I need to be careful..."

After all, that 'Kiyuro Lily' was something she created by connecting with her own dreams. There was no guarantee that this kind of existence would not appear when she and Sakura Aoka tried to connect with their dreams. If this was the case, the risks and difficulty would be greatly increased.

It's not just a question of whether Sakura Aika will wake up, maybe Kiyono Yuri herself will be in danger.
