Fantasy Clock~Dream Ruler~

【SideB】Sleeping Beauty of Sleeping Nightmare (3)

It seemed as if he held his breath for a long time before raising his head from the water, and finally regained consciousness. I opened my eyes suddenly, and I was no longer in the all-white room before. The professor in a white coat kneeling on the ground intoxicated, as well as the men in suits and leather shoes, were obviously not nearby.

I ran my hand through my hair to make sure, and found that the weird device they put on was not there. Only then did I want to believe that I was really sent to the dream, and lost the right to go back... So, regret and anxiety, fear and despair knocked on the door of my heart, and I hid in the room and buried my knees , wanting to plug my ears——

"Hey~ Even if you are trapped in a dream, you are not allowed to compromise on this."

The soft touch touched my back, and then the girl's ethereal and lazy whisper came. Although it was an order, it sounded so soft. I don't need to turn my head to know who is behind me, and thinking that she understands my mind better than anyone else, the passing warmth and fear are neutralized. But I noticed another thing that caught my attention...

"You...your boobs hit me!!"

"Hey...Excuse me?" The pair of "weapons" finally withdrew from behind, releasing my heavy breathing. The tea cat puffed its cheeks innocently and came right in front of me.

"No, why are you apologizing! I, the one who took advantage, should apologize, right?! And if you apologize, just apologize, why do you use a questioning tone!"

"You really like to complain~" The tea cat's small mouth became an "o" shape, and its eyebrows drooped slightly, adding a bit of mature charm to the tear mole at the corner of the eye. As a result, I accidentally moved my eyes down and noticed her red lips, and then I remembered the kiss that confused me not long ago in a chain reaction.

This guy is really...it doesn't look H at all, but it always makes people think of H! ! I hastily and unnaturally staggered her gaze, and secretly complained in my heart.

"Uh...uh...that's right! Tea cat, where is this place?"

"Hey, you're going to change the subject—"

"Ahem!!" I quickly interrupted her. I don't even need to put the mirror in front of me, I know that my cheeks must be extremely red.

"Hmm...you ran to such a place out of nowhere, and I followed you here. So I don't know where this is."

There was a hint of complaint in Tea Mao's words. But expressing complaints so gently... I think only tea cats can do it.

I rubbed my dry eyelids and looked around again. This is definitely not the ruler's clock, nor is it the mid-air that is constantly falling, and it is even less likely to be the desolate star. This place is more like the stairway of a certain hospital, and the corresponding consulting rooms on each floor are posted on the wall beside it.

Not far away was a white plastic door that was badly worn open and closed by doctors rushing to the operating room. When you get closer, you can clearly hear two people talking on the opposite side of the door——

"What the hell did you do to me?! Who the hell are you!!"

"I didn't do anything...I just hope that you can wake up from your dream."

I somehow understood what was going on, moved to the door, carefully turned the handle and opened the door, and pressed my head against the crack of the door to reveal one eye. As expected, the boy kneeling in front of the ward was Su Ruoyang. This time, it should be because the chairs fell to the ground one after another, and I slept with Su Luoyang, so I, who fell asleep after him, inadvertently entered his dream.

However, who is behind Su Ruoyang? I cast my gaze there carefully, the man's attire and the atmosphere of the hospital formed a strong sense of tearing, only the scar on his face slightly matched. At this time, I don't know what that person did to Su Ruoyang, but Su Ruoyang suddenly disappeared in the corridor of the hospital. I looked at the man puzzled, and my eyes fell on the scar on his face involuntarily.

Wait...Scar? The figure of a certain person in the memory suddenly became clear—why did the manager of the pawn shop appear here?

"So, you came to run for the election, too?"

"Xinghai Tavern...you need to go there."

The memory of that day was awakened again. I couldn't help thinking about those questions that I had already kept in my heart... How did he act like he knew me? And what was his purpose in saying those words? Why do I need to go to Xinghai Tavern? If he hadn't been trapped in the deserted star before... I would have gone to that pawnshop to ask him what happened.

"I'm sorry..." I muttered softly, and closed my eyes a little uneasy. There is still a feeling of not being able to rely on his ability to control what the tea cat calls "one person with thousands of faces". But sooner or later it will be used, it is better to try to use it now. Unexpectedly, my consciousness climbed up the rope extending to the store manager in an instant, and the door of memory suddenly knocked open.

As a result, my jaw-dropping thoughts rushed away from the other side of the door, and I felt that my consciousness was being pressed down heavily. I tried hard to open my eyes and found that all the heavy shackles were pressing on my body. I reached out and carefully touched the shining "memories" hidden in the shackles, but at this moment a voice suddenly pierced my ears——

"I never thought that one day you would pry into the mind of 'myself'."

I'm supposed to be the only one here, but the man wearing a turban with a brown scar carved on his face appeared next to me, watching me quietly... I really didn't expect that the other party would follow along. The ropes I had extended to him came here to find me, and it gave me a momentary flicker of fear.

"Why can you spy on my mind in turn? And what do you mean?!"

"I said it... because what you are spying on is 'your own' mind."

The heavy shackles that were pressing on my body were all broken at this moment, shattered and then released crystal clear memory fragments, which merged into my forehead without warning, as if they wanted to merge with me. Memories suddenly bloomed in my mind.

——However, what I saw were all my own memories... Those are the memories I have from my childhood, all the way to the present, belonging to me named "Lin Yu"!

I felt as if I was hit on the back of the head by a heavy rock from a landslide, and I stared at those wandering memories with wide eyes in disbelief... Noticing that the memory seemed to want to continue to the future, I felt intense fear in an instant, and hurriedly Pulling away the floating debris that still wanted to get in, I threw it forward with all my strength. I shook my head and took a sharp step back, losing strength in my feet.

"You are me...you are...the future me?"

As Tea Mao said, I felt that my body began to change and gradually transformed into the appearance of the other party. This made me feel panic several times over. I stubbornly touched my cheek, clearly touching the bumpy feeling from the scar.

"No... how is this possible? Could it be that you are me decades later? But how could I become like you!! That's impossible..."

It seems that because I stopped the memory fragments that were continuously transmitted from the other party just now, I only maintained my current appearance for a few seconds before returning to my original appearance.

But even so, the man in front of me declared silently——I will become like him one day in the future.

"Dream time is misplaced with each other. Even the rulers in the same domination war do not necessarily come from the same time point. It can be concluded that the dream world is actually extremely disordered. So the future Lin Yu participated in the 12th Domination war, and the current Lin Yu participated in the 14th Domination War... It is not surprising."

"No...! Even so! You should have been caught in a dream 14 years ago?! Why did you appear in my time?"

"Because I failed... Not only did I fail to win the war of domination, but I also lost half of my memory and drifted between dreams. Although now because of you, I recall most of my memories, but we left this city soon The Palace of Memories, I will definitely forget what I said to you here again when I return to the dreamland.”

His words made me shake my head even harder. If I had won the 14th War of Domination, there should be no reason for me to participate in the 12th War of Domination. In other words, the future me who appeared here cruelly announced the final result of the No. 2 clock in this war of domination—failure.

"Hmm. Your guess is basically correct. After losing, I was invited to participate in the Domination War for the second time. It was the 12th Domination War... But as I said just now, I failed again. I started my wandering journey in the cracks of dreams... Finally, I wandered for 14 years and met you again.”

I watched in despair at the shards that flew like shards of light and fell to the ground.

"It's not fair... I don't want to know my future, why are you telling me such a thing... I haven't reached the final battle, why are you telling me that I will definitely fail!"

"I don't know either... Maybe it's because only now I have the opportunity to tell you these things, after all, I don't have my own memories at all times."

What a joke! Just because of this incredible reason, are you telling me to accept this future! Obviously everything is going in a good direction - not only escaped from the deserted star, but also learned what my own dominance is, the most important thing is the matter between the tea cat and me, but now a future comes out inexplicably Tell me that no matter what happens now, the future is the doomed result, I will experience two failures, and then wander alone in the cracks of dreams... How can I easily accept this kind of thing!

I really want to stomp him on the ground and tell him that I deny everything about him, I deny everything he said... But at this moment, I suddenly remembered something——

"Then...why did you tell me that I needed to go to Xinghai Tavern?"

"It's very simple." He paused, and gently scratched the oozing scar on his face, "I said that my memory is very unstable, so I cherish the moment when I suddenly think of something. I will I told you that because at that time... I remembered one thing - once I got separated from Black Cat and the others, and I didn't deliberately go to find them... Then Xiao Lulu was killed at the entrance of Xinghai Tavern ...It's really a name that reminds me of it...In the end, she was trapped in the deserted star, and she couldn't escape from there. Now that I remembered it, why didn't I remind you?"

When he said these words, he deliberately hid his sad thoughts in his eyes. At the same time, the experience in Desolate Star is vivid. Because of his interference, I was the one who was finally trapped there, and I escaped successfully. Xiao Lulu is still alive and well until now. This is certainly a different future than the one he describes.

"So, the future can be changed... Your existence can also be denied!!"

My conclusion left my future self puzzled. This time it was his turn to stare at me in bewilderment and bewilderment. And when I saw his reaction, I smiled even more intensely.

"The future you told about didn't happen to me again... This shows that you are just one of my infinite possibilities in the future!"

I don't know why, but I completely rejected him, but his eyes gradually became radiant...the faint glimmer of tears made me think.

At this time, I suddenly remembered the prophetic dream I had before meeting the tea cat for the second time—at the end of the dream, the tea cat didn’t come into my room, we just looked at each other and smiled, and everything would definitely turn out It doesn't look like it started. I figured, that must be another possibility for me, but my inadvertent decision deviates from the future predicted by that precognitive dream... This time it will be the same.

"Listen to me...Even if you are the future me, no one can decide my future. I promise that for the rest of my life, I will do my best to deny the future you told me!"

Two lines of tears flowed down his vicissitudes of face unbearably, and what I saw just now were indeed the tears in his eyes. He looked at me and couldn't help but smile.

"Can't the tea cat decide your future?"

"Ahem! She doesn't count, that's an exception!"

I didn't expect that I would be so cunning in the future. I gave him a resentful look, but I didn't expect him to smile without trying to hide it.

But in the next second, I found that his body became transparent, as if trying to blend in with the surrounding colors.

"Oh my...after sleeping for so long, it should be time for me to wake up."

His tone was a little self-talking. As I watched him, I felt a sad mood pass through my heart. According to what he said, I probably won't see him again in the future... He will really be like one of the infinite possibilities of my future life, disappearing in this long river of time.

"The townspeople between dreams are the final destination of those who cannot wake up in the real world..."

"That's why... are you wandering in the cracks of the dream?"

"I think you should be imprisoned in the Core Research Association now? Then...before I disappear, please promise me," his figure has become more and more blurred, and he is in touch with the surroundings. The fusion began to be real, and the palace of memory lost its support and collapsed at an accelerated rate. His voice clearly reached his ears, "You must also wake up from your dream!"

"Yeah...that's for sure!"

In an instant, my consciousness collapsed again, and with the blessings and hopes from my future self, I came from the pitch-black nothingness to the dazzling white——

The first thing that catches the eye is a white coat that has been washed thoroughly white, and then there is a burst of sight that makes people feel chills. The corner of the professor's mouth is forced by himself to pull up a smile, revealing two rows of white teeth and blood-red lips. Gum, that posture wished to tear his lips. There was a strange and strange tone in his throat, as if it was a song of the dead that could be connected to hell.

There were a few broken chair legs scattered on the ground, and Su Luoyang, who had obvious bruises on her cheeks, could not stand up straight because of the back of the chair tied behind her, but she seemed to be protecting the girl behind her. Presumably, with the help of my future self, Su Ruoyang woke up before me. Seeing this, the professor wanted to use the spare wearer on his head to continue experimenting with Xue Xueer, but he tried his best to stop it...

"Unexpectedly, two distinguished guests woke up!" The tone changed back to the passionate argument, and there was no sense of scripting at all. "There were 15 distinguished guests who participated in the experiment before, and 12 of them never woke up again. You have expanded the camp of the awakened, and it really is the breakthrough point of the experiment..."

"15..." I repeated this number, remembering what the black cat said before I fell asleep, "So, the three experimenters who woke up before should include Xiao Luoluo and Xiao Lu road..."

At the mention of these two names, the enthusiasm in the professor's eyes became more and more crazy. Only then did I make sure that my guess was not in the wrong direction.

"Dawn is coming...I want to give an answer to those inspirations that come in this remaining night..." Suddenly he squatted down at an unpredictable speed, and grabbed my collar with his palm , eyes full of mad love that makes me sick. Su Ruoyang next to him was also arrested in the same brutal way... "Quick, tell me quickly!! How did you wake up!"

Su Luoyang didn't intend to answer, she clenched her fists and turned her head away with a disgusted expression. Presumably he also understands that even if he tells the professor, he will not be let go. The professor set his eyes on me again, and I naturally returned the same contempt with no comment. As a result, he frantically grabbed the clothes on our chests, and he didn't know where he got the strange force... He picked us up and fell to the ground again, the chair behind him was smashed instantly, and the wooden thorns were scraped into the back The skin on my back, the violent impact made me feel as if all the organs in my body would burst because of it...

"Hurry up!! Tell me!"

"Ahem... don't you have a "dream image recording system"? Isn't it enough to peek into our dreams with that kind of thing?"

Su Ruoyang narrowed his eyes in pain, but still asked the other party a question in his mouth. As if angered by this, the professor squeezed Su Ruoyang's neck tightly, and threw him towards the wall in the next second, and Su Ruoyang hit the wall with this force, and let out a yell It hurts just to hear it.

I couldn't help clenching my fists anxiously, and couldn't find any way to save Su Luoyang and me. And I actually didn't have time to take care of Su Ruoyang, the professor's attention had already fallen on me, he lifted me up with ease but more than enough, and asked me, "Tell me, how did you wake up from your dream?" came."

I wanted to answer "Why don't you ask the black cat or Xiao Lulu", but the voice of the tea cat suddenly came from my mind. Perhaps due to the fact that Rongtan Street is between dreams and reality, her voice is dreamlike and waking up, very illusory and ethereal. But it is the only life-saving straw I can grasp at this moment——

"Hmm... Lin Yu? If you want to escape, I need you to do one thing."
