October 6th, Sunday. The cloudy sky turned sunny, and it looked like it was going to rain in the morning.

"Urgh!"

Yūki immediately got out of bed as soon as she woke up. She rushed to the toilet, opened the toilet, and began to vomit.

Lily sat cross-legged in front of the small wooden table, waiting for Yūki.

The sound of vomiting and crying lasted for about ten minutes. She vomited until her stomach was almost empty. Then, she heard the sound of the toilet being pumped.

Knocking sounds came from the wall on one side of the room. The guest next door was knocking on the wall.

After tidying up, Yūki quickly went out to apologize to Mr. Fujinuma next door.

Mr. Fujinuma probably worked at the convenience store yesterday and came back very late. It was only six o 'clock in the morning, but he was woken up by Yūki's movements.

It was already 6: 20 when Yūki sat down opposite Lily again.

"Do you want to eat something?" Yūki put a bag of bread and two cartons of milk on the table.

Lily still looked at Yūki expressionlessly. She didn't take the breakfast and said, "No, I mean, is that thing really that scary?"

Yūki silently handed the rest of Bi Yang Qi's food to Lily and said, "Come on, eat some."

Lily, whose memory was blurred, didn't have any impression of Yūki dying in pain yesterday. She looked at the few pieces of unknown objects that were still in the shape of cherry blossoms but exuded a strong dark aura. She swallowed and shook her head violently.

"Did you really die yesterday?"

"I did. Do you have any recollection of dying at 11: 30?"

Lily, whose eyes were closed, shook her head and said, "You were just about to say that you were going to die, so you ate that thing and went back to bed to sleep.

I tried to talk to you, but you didn't say a word. It was a little creepy. "

Yūki sighed. "Of course, it's normal that you don't remember that I died. I stayed in the same position for more than half an hour.

I also saw you running around the house and screaming after confirming that I was dead. Mr. Fujiuma, who lived next door, heard that something was wrong and found my body. The police even came. "

Lily, "???

What do you mean I'm that dramatic?

Wait, can you see what happens after you die? "

"Sometimes. That's why I know that my body will stay there for 30 minutes before my memory is blurred."

Xiji took a bite of the bread. "I'll feel that I've left my body and fixed my vision somewhere around my body. I won't fall asleep until 30 minutes later."

"What about the police?

How do you have a vague memory of them appearing in your room? "

"I'm not sure. I don't know if it's a collective refresh in the early hours of the morning or half an hour later.

"I'm already dead. Do you expect me to know what I look like after I die?"

"Emmmm …" Lily hugged her arms and couldn't get over it. "Then who is the 'you' in my memory that I can't call after you die?"

Yūki finished her breakfast in one go and shook her head, indicating that she didn't know either.

She had been thinking about this problem for a long time, but no matter if she left a message for herself or created some accidents for her dead self to encounter, her dead self didn't respond at all.

No matter where or when he died, that 'him' would always return to the place where he lived and sleep under his blanket.

She still didn't know whether her dead self had consciousness or not.

"By the way, Xiao Xiao.

There's something I think you should know. That 'you' has red eyes, "Lily said.

That Yūki glanced at Lily as if she was wondering who Lily was.

"Red?"

Yūki stood in front of the mirror and looked at her light pink eyes. She was also puzzled. "When I was young, my eyes were also red. It was the kind of red that had a bit of purple. I inherited it from my father.

After the car accident, my eyes became light pink like this.

Did you see the color of my eyes in the past? "

Lily shook her head again and frowned. She pointed at Yūki's eyes and said, "No, they're blood red. They don't look like the eyes of a mammal."

"You mean …"

"I remember. They seem to have vertical pupils."

At this moment, Yūki wanted to jump up.

All these years, she hadn't made any progress in her research. Now, Lily had made a major breakthrough in just one night.

Sure enough, it was better to have more people to do research on herself. She might as well find the power of the country. Maybe she could have a new breakthrough and find the reason why she didn't die!

In other words, she might be able to live a normal life!

"Calm down. Are you bewitched?" Lily waved her hand, and at this time, he jumped up.

Yūki, who got up, shouted for her to stop. "Did you forget to confirm that you're not human?"

That's right …

Yūki sat down obediently.

"I have the eyes of a cold-blooded animal, so am I a mammal?"

"You should be a mentally disabled animal." Lily rolled her eyes.

"… Lily, do you sell swords?"

"No, I pick up coins."

Skipping the teasing part, the two of them discussed the topic of eyes for a while, but they still couldn't come to a conclusion.

In the end, they came to the conclusion that there was still a lot of time, so they might as well go shopping first.

However, Lily was indeed a typical otaku. After about half an hour, she went back to playing games with an impatient expression.

For her, going shopping was better than going shopping at home. She had a fat otaku Happy Drink in one hand and a fat otaku Happy Chicken in the other. She gave off the aura of a useless person.

If it weren't for the fact that she gave Yūki 50,000 yen, Yūki would have already thrown this huge waste of air out of the house.

"Are you really not going out?

The cherry blossoms are almost in full bloom! "

"I'm not going. I've been looking at cherry blossoms for more than ten years. I'm tired of looking at Japanese cherry blossoms." Lily shook the obvious ahoge on her head and waved her hand.

You have the face of a seventeen or eighteen-year-old, and you have the nerve to say that you've been looking at cherry blossoms for more than ten years???

Yūki felt that Lily had successfully defeated the first impression she had of her. She had successfully become the fat otaku in her impression, and the distance between them was instantly shortened.

Forget it, she would just treat it as an annoying decoration in the room.

When she went out again, she met Mr. Fujinuma's mother next door and greeted her.

Yūki respected her a lot. She had always supported her son's pursuit of his dreams. Even if her son was at the lowest point of his life, she had never complained.

Yūki thought about the rest of the trip and decided to go to a nearby park to look at cherry blossoms.

However, there was a saying that went, "If you lower your head, you'll meet again."

This saying was referring to the situation between Yūki and Sawada.

Usually, the chances of them meeting when they didn't feel anything was close to zero. Now that both sides didn't want to see each other, fate was forcing them to meet again.

"… Sawada -san, good afternoon." Yūki was the first to speak. She had already given up on resisting fate.

Ze Tian could only nod at Xiji and greet her with a stiff body. At the same time, he introduced the bunch of people around him. They were all here to see the cherry blossoms.

"The cherry blossoms are almost in full bloom, hahaha."

"Haha, aren't you the same, Komori -san? Hahaha."

Both sides laughed awkwardly for a while and fell into a strange awkwardness.

By now, Yūki was already regretting coming to the park to look at cherry blossoms.

Just as Lily said, cherry blossoms bloomed every year for one or two months. Why did she have to go out today?

He must have picked an auspicious day to meet Zetian in a place like this.

Sawada didn't want to go out either. He already admired the cherry blossoms the last time they bloomed, and Leibaun said that the cherry blossoms seemed pretty beautiful today, so he dragged his whole family out.

But in the end, he met Komori -san, who didn't want to talk to him for the time being … This, this was truly an accident!

In the end, Yūki couldn't stand the awkward atmosphere anymore, so she suggested leaving first.

She wasn't prepared to awkwardly chat with Sawada, and she also didn't have Sawada's mother's lunch (which was almost finished). Why should she risk her life to sit together with Leibaun!?

After saying goodbye to Sawada, Yūki finally had nothing to do and went to the bookstore on the commercial street.

Then in the bookstore, she met an unexpected person.

The girl who should have died in the car accident was standing not far away, flipping through a book on how to raise a pet. Next to her was a notebook, constantly writing.

Although Yūki knew that she was definitely still alive, seeing that the person who should have died was still standing there, she couldn't help but feel a trace of warmth in her heart.

And it seemed that after that, even the kitten had survived and was still being loved by others.

Yūki didn't know what would happen after her death was blurred, but the pain that should have been borne by her, even if it was erased, would still have a residual effect.

For example, the impact this time was that the girl successfully survived. She might be injured, but she didn't have to suffer the previous pain.

Today was indeed a day full of positive energy, a day full of good things.

Yūki smiled and didn't talk to the girl. She took the book to the front desk to pay the bill.

She didn't need anyone to remember the good things she did. Anyway, she had so many opportunities, so she would be very happy to do more good things and make the world brighter.

This was probably the so-called doing good deeds without leaving a name.

After returning home in the evening, she shared with Lily the Chinese dishes that Yūki had practiced for more than half a year to make, and complained about the current celebrities and the online circle.

It was really a magical thing to have someone by your side to eat and chat with.

At about eleven o 'clock, Yūki dug out the remaining Bi Yang Qi's special biscuits from the closet.

Even if a few days had passed, it would only make this pile of unknown things gradually ferment, leading to an even more indescribable taste and smell. She could smell it even through the plastic wrap, and it gave Yūki goosebumps.

"Wait, Xiao Xiao. You don't have to rush to the next day."

Lily suddenly said, "I said before that I know about your eyes. I want to tell you about it first.

I think it's better for you to know it early. "

Yūki was stunned. She thought that Lily had said those words to fool her, to give her some hope in life.

Lily flipped through the calendar on her phone, clicked on the day, and asked Yūki, "August 15th, the Yulanpen Festival. You know about it, right?"

"I'm Japanese. Of course I know. It's a holiday that day, right?"

For Yūki, whose mother had died early and whose father was still alive but cut off contact with her, there was only one difference between a holiday and a holiday, including her own birthday.

"Then you should know that it's also a day of sacrifice in Japan, and it's also regarded as the Ghost Festival.

Let me ask you, was it August 15th when you and your mother had a car accident? "

"Eh?

That's right. How did you know? "Yūki asked in confusion.

Lily sighed and said with an 'as expected' expression, "I know a story. A setting in that story is very similar to your eyes. That's why I told you that.

I thought about it all day today before I managed to recall most of that story. I found that the overlap was very high. "

Hearing this, Yūki nodded and obediently sat beside Lily. She put Bi Yang Qi's biscuits aside and looked at the time, ready to eat.

"In that story, if two people died together on August 15th, there was a chance that they would be eaten by a snake and enter another fake world.

The two people would experience August 15th repeatedly in the fake world, and at least one person would die on that day.

At the end of the cycle, the snake would spit out the person who survived, return him to the real world, and give him a snake. This snake has a special ability and can fulfill a small wish of the person at that time. "Lily organized her words.

"… This setting should be more than that, right?" Although she couldn't remember the scene at that time, Yūki still felt that something was missing.

Lily nodded and continued, "In the story, all the people who survived were found the day after the accident, and the other person's body wouldn't be spat out. In the beginning, the people who survived didn't have any memory of the fake world, but later on, someone remembered it.

Moreover, all the people who obtained this ability would turn red when they used the ability. "

"Just like me yesterday?" Yūki touched her eyes.

"Yes, it's also snake eyes." Lily said, "One more thing. In the story, there were two people with pink eyes.

One was a queen, and the other had the same ability as Xiao Xiao, healthy … or rather, an overly strong body.

But that person only had pink eyes after his entire body was reconstructed. I don't know what Xiao Xiao is like. "

"Xiao Xiao, I want to ask you, were you found the next day after the accident?"

Yūki, who was shocked by the amount of information, pressed her forehead and answered with a frown, "Yes, because I was driving back home at night, I thought no one would take that road, but I encountered a truck. In a panic, I turned the steering wheel and fell off the cliff … It was very difficult to go down that place in the middle of the night, so I was found the next day, but my mother's body wasn't found. It seemed that she was taken away by a beast.

That's what everyone told me. "

"No, your mother should still be in that fake world, that 'Hot Sun Days.'" Lily asked, "Xiao Xiao, do you really not remember the details of the accident?

Were you eaten by a snake at that time? "

Yūki was already sweating. She picked up the biscuit, thought for a moment, and chose to tell the truth. "I … I don't really remember. I think I saw a black snake open its mouth.

But maybe it was because I heard Lily's words that blurred my memory. "

Because she heard other people's words, and it was a distant memory, wasn't it common for memories to be beautified and changed like this?

Lily shook her head.

"But I didn't say it was a black snake."
