[Tutor] Daydream

A month later, Bingsheng Forest.

Sawada Tsunayoshi and Gudera Hayato, who had just been beaten up by Lal Milch, gnawed tremblingly at the grilled fish that Lal generously gave them as alms. off.

From being hit by rockets for ten years to now, Tsunayoshi Sawada has heard too many things beyond his imagination.Ten years later, both Li Baoen and him were dead, Peng Gelie was in a desperate situation, the adult prison temple said that he wanted to kill a person, and the family named "Milufiore"...

Everything sounded scary, but it felt unreal to him because of the long hours.Even when he woke up and found himself lying in a coffin, he wasn't particularly sad, but more shocked—what happened to drive them to this point?

With such a heavy heart, I don't even have a good appetite.Sawada Tsunayoshi put down the grilled fish and wanted to ask something, but couldn't figure it out.Lal was about to explain the flame and the ring to them when the balloon floating in the air suddenly moved.

"There are enemies!"

Lal quickly jumped up and took them into hiding.Mosca, who was in charge of the investigation, turned to them, and Prison Temple couldn't help reminding in a low voice: "He's coming!"

"It's okay." Lal comforted, "Our ring has been sealed with the Mammon chain, it won't—"

She looked at Mosca who continued to walk, and her face changed drastically: "Are you still wearing rings other than Vongola's ring?!"

"It's all for you, that's all for you just now." Yuji touched his pocket to confirm, but Sawada Tsunayoshi let out a low cry, spread his hands, and there were two rings lying in his palms.

"Oops, the ring that Mr. Lanzia gave me...and Xing's!"

It was finally found by Lambose in his hair that day, and he wanted to return it to her the next day, but he forgot because of Li Baoen.

"Why didn't you say it earlier! This is not an opponent that the three of us can defeat." She gritted her teeth, "It's obviously very close to the base..."

Sawada Tsunayoshi and Gokuji also became nervous because of her resentful and unwilling tone. Seeing that Mosca had aimed the cannon here, a figure suddenly appeared in the bushes.

He chopped down the knife very quickly, fixed Mosca in place, easily put the long knife across his shoulder, and looked here.Seeing the young man standing beside Lal, he was slightly taken aback.

Soon, he regained his familiar smile, which overlapped with someone from ten years ago, and Tsunayoshi Sawada hesitated to call out his name.

"Could it be... Yamamoto?!"

Hearing that the teenagers recognized him, Takeshi Yamamoto smiled and opened the box.Swifts soar into the sky, bringing the intense precipitation that only tropical rainforests have.The figures of the teenagers were blurred in the rain, and the smile on the young man's mouth gradually disappeared.

Such an encounter across time really makes people...

Even if it's only for a few minutes, it's already a luxury to see each other again.

##

Entering the real base entrance, Tsunayoshi Sawada and Hayato Gokudera were so shocked by the magnificent scene underground that they were speechless.After passing through a strange barrier, Lal suddenly passed out.Yamamoto picked her up and continued walking until he stopped at a door.

"Here it is."

"arrive?"

The boy was still looking left and right, curiously looking at this masterpiece of "myself in ten years later", when a baby's unique thin voice came from ahead.

"It's so slow!"

Sawada Tsunayoshi turned his head stiffly and saw the little baby sitting on the sofa.

He is still alive... Lal said that he will no longer be in the world ten years later, but now...

"Here!"

The real baby who came out of nowhere kicked him on the back of the head, Tsunayoshi Sawada knocked the fake doll off the sofa with his head, jumped up habitually, and protested furiously: "What are you doing!! Okay? It’s too messy to meet you again so easily!! I’m desperately looking for you!!”

The same tone as before, as if returning to the peaceful days ten years ago.

It's a pity that this atmosphere didn't last long. What Yamamoto told about Mirufiore's hunting of Pengo Li made them even more depressed.In addition to "gathering all the guardians", which sounds difficult, what worries Sawada Tsunayoshi is another point - Mirufiore has increased the scope of hunting, and everyone who knows Vongola members, are also within this range.

"That means Mom, Jingzi Xiaochun, and Xing, they all..."

"Mom and Jiaguang went on a trip to Italy." Li Baoen reassured him, and Yamamoto also added, "Futa and Biyangqi went out to collect information. Almost all the people they have known in the past ten years have been excluded. Fujido and Kawada, Mochida and the others are gone..."

Hearing these two familiar names, Tsunayoshi Sawada repeated in disbelief: "Todo and Kawata? Are they the two in our class?"

Yamamoto smiled: "Yeah! During the Ring War, I can't remember what happened, anyway, the relationship suddenly became better, and I copied your homework for you. By the way, when I went to pick up Lal Milch, Ippei and Rambo also set off to pick up Sasakawa and Koharu."

The boy finally felt a little comforted.

Fortunately, everyone is protecting them.Moreover, Lanbo and Yiping in this era are no longer children, and Yiping is still very powerful.Jingzi and Xiaochun must be fine...

Thinking of this, he asked again: "What about Xing? Xing is also someone we know. Her house doesn't seem to be far from mine. Is there anyone going to pick her up?"

Takeshi Yamamoto was stunned for a moment, and asked him back: "Xing? Which Xing? So you seem to have mentioned it just now, and I thought it was wrong..."

He didn't look like he was joking, nor did he look like he was usually rough-natured.For some reason, Sawada Tsunayoshi had a bad feeling.He swallowed, and added: "That's... Terasaki Anko, the deputy monitor of our class, she is my neighbor."

"Didn't you just say that Fujido and Kawada copied my homework for me? It was Xing who asked them, because we asked for leave during Varian's time, and even the homework of you and the prison temple was also done, you don't remember ?"

Takeshi Yamamoto still had the same expression just now, without even a hint of reminiscence.Sawada Tsunayoshi was stunned for a while, as if he had found the reason.

"She... has moved, hasn't she?"

The words spoken under the wishing tree are still very clear.

He explained himself: "Did she move? Or did she go to Tokyo for the exam like Nogizaka-senpai? Or, her parents have been abroad, have you taken her abroad?"

Takeshi Yamamoto looked at him with more and more strange eyes, as if he was saying something incredible: "Are you sure? The person you are talking about...is called Terasaki Xing?"

He turned on the computer beside him and called up a photo.The girl's familiar face appeared on the screen, and he confirmed to Sawada Tsunayoshi: "Is this Terasaki Anko?"

"Yeah!" The boy nodded hurriedly, but Takeshi Yamamoto smiled, "Impossible, Gang, she's only 16 years old."

Sawada Tsunayoshi has not yet reacted: "You mean, is this a photo of her when she was 16 years old?"

"Yes, but," Takeshi Yamamoto emphasized, hovering over her date of birth, "she's only 16 now."

Sawada Tsunayoshi and Gokudera Hayato looked at each other, and the silver-haired boy obviously couldn't understand the situation: "Impossible, Terasaki should be the same as us, already 24 years old. Could it be that he has a younger sister?"

Sawada Tsunayoshi scratched his head, and said something even more impossible: "Could it be that she grows slower than us?"

"..."

Yamamoto looked at him helplessly, "Gang, I didn't realize before... your imagination is even more exaggerated than mine."

Prison Temple immediately counterattacked: "You also know that you are exaggerating?! You saw us just now and said that we were transformed by monsters!"

"Okay, okay." The young man smiled, and his expression became serious again, "I'm not joking. In my memory, there was never such a person in class A of the second year ten years ago."

Li Baowen's voice sounded suddenly: "Not only that, I'm afraid this Terasaki Anko who exists in this era is not an ordinary student, is she?"

He jumped onto the computer desk and sat down in front of the monitor.The girl on the screen has an indifferent expression, and the information next to the photo is marked with her birth date and place, her growth experience, and her current identity.

——Vice-captain of the White Curse No.12 troop.

"When I was young, I was transferred to Fukushima with my parents. When I went to Bingsheng to perform a mission, I encountered an accident. Her parents died, and she was adopted by the locals. She was found three years later and has never left Italy since then. Until Gironiero and Jay The Suo family merged and was transferred to Japan... the first half is the same as what I investigated."

"Investigation?" Tsunayoshi Sawada also leaned in front of the screen, "Li Baoen, have you investigated Xing before?"

"Of course. In order to select your family members, I will carefully investigate everyone who comes into contact with you. Although I promised her not to tell you for the time being... But in this situation, I think you should have the right to know."

Li Baoen's complexion was gloomy, and he turned to look at his students.

"Gang, listen. Even Xing, who is in the same era as us, has unexplainable mysteries. We can't find out her parents, and her address is also a place that was planned to be abandoned in the city plan. And in the ring competition During the war, she seemed to be aware of this, and she even asked her classmate—Shou Xiaolin in your class to investigate the information of her primary school, but of course found nothing. At that time, she realized I was investigating her. As a condition of training Ayako Nakajima, she asked me to give her the information about the missing "Angel Terasaki" that Dino mentioned. "

The one that Mr. Dino is talking about...is that the little girl in that photo?

"It seems that there is really such a person..." Takeshi Yamamoto was also aware of the discrepancy between their memories, "The Terasaki Apricot I know is just like what you read in the information, after Kiruniero was merged , as a rare new generation in the Black Curse, she was quickly appreciated by the leader and served as the vice-captain of Team No.12. It is impossible for her parents to take her abroad as you said, and Terasaki’s parents died long ago.”

"Vice-captain," Sawada Tsunayoshi muttered, "that is to say, this Xing and us..."

"It's the enemy." Li Baoen concluded, "Do you still remember what happened when the rocket hit the apricot ten years ago?"

Sawada Tsunayoshi nodded.

of course I remember.Xing didn't recognize him, fought with Li Baoen, and also mentioned the "alliance".

"Does Xing, who will be ten years later, not know me?"

Yamamoto laughed: "How is it possible? When Girunero was still in the Vongola League, that kid admired you very much. During the two weeks we were in Girunero, he pestered me every day to go to the martial arts field... you also I care about her very much, after all, such an active junior is rare."

junior?

worship?

Sawada Tsunayoshi couldn't imagine that this kind of expression would appear on Terasaki An's face...it was still facing him.Not to mention that he is a familiar friend now, if it is just the beginning of school, it would be good not to ignore him, how can it be possible to worship him?

"So Agang, if there is such a Terasaki Apricot as you said, at least at this time, she does not exist. Besides me, I have never heard of it from anyone else in the past ten years. She... including you. Kirunelo's leader succession ceremony was the first time you and this Terasaki Anko met."

"I... haven't mentioned it either?"

Prison Temple raised an objection from the side: "Maybe Judaimu didn't tell you? How can a living person disappear, and it's not missing. When we confronted Varian, we still fought together?"

"How come we remember ten years ago, but you don't remember ten years later? There must be something to prove her existence?"

His words reminded Sawada Tsunayoshi, remembering that there was still a ring of hers beside him, he reached into his pocket: "Yes... Look, she still dropped a ring with me."

Because he was anxious to prove it, the large movement also brought out all the odds and ends in his pockets - the Shiki pill that he broke the lid off, the candies he bought for Rambo, the amulets made by Kyoko and Xiaochun, and A small square wooden sign with a torn red string tied to the top.

It was Terasaki Anko's wishing card.When Lanbo jumped down from the tree, he stuffed it into his pocket in a hurry.

Sawada Tsunayoshi picked up the wooden sign, as if he had found solid evidence, and his tone became eager: "Yes! And this, this is a wishing sign for New Year's visit, and there is a name written on it, and the handwriting is also hers. , look, it says—"

In the girl's delicate handwriting was written a wish that he didn't dare to read that day - the New Year when they hadn't become friends, she said she had no wish to fulfill, but she still hung up the wooden sign.

"What's wrong, Aang?"

Seeing that he has been silent, Li Baoen is also unavoidably worried.I have experienced so many things this day and heard too much bad news.For a 14-year-old child, it is a bit cruel.

"...It's nothing." He put the wooden sign back in his pocket, "I'm a little tired."

"Then go to bed early." Takeshi Yamamoto signaled them to follow, "Your rooms have been tidied up."

"okay."

Sawada Tsunayoshi responded in a low mood, and climbed onto the iron frame bed after arriving in the room and washing up hastily.I closed my eyes, but couldn't fall asleep.

Everything weighs like a boulder on the chest.So many people died, all the former classmates lost news, and Yamamoto's father also passed away.

Lanbo and Yiping haven't come back yet, I don't know if Jingzi and Xiaochun are safe and sound, and parents can't be contacted... Why is the world so scary ten years later?

Whether it's God, Buddha, or any other god, please keep them safe...

and also……

The dark water stain on the pillow expanded a little bit.

Why doesn't Yamamoto remember her?Who is that 16-year-old girl?Before they came here, they watched the fireworks together, how could they say they didn't see it and then they disappeared?

"I don't have any particular wishes to fulfill."

The boy gritted his teeth and clenched the wooden sign in his hand, the rough edges piercing his palm.

Deceiving.

But, why... Obviously at that time, they were not even friends.

He wiped his eyes, and the sparse light leaked through the crack of the door, illuminating a short line of words on the wishing card.

"I wish Sawada-san a long life."
