[Tutor] Daydream

Cerbero stood by Irie Masaichi who had been waiting for a long time, and pointed his gun at them.In the transparent device beside him, all the uninvited guests who broke into the base were locked.The Guardians, Ral and Ippei, and Tetsuya Kusakabe and Anko Terasaki.

Sawada Tsunayoshi anxiously wanted to confirm their safety, but was threatened by Irie Masaichi with poisonous gas and dared not act rashly.Everyone who was drowsy woke up one after another.

"Resisting is futile." The red-haired young man spread his hands, and all the Vongola rings were in his palm. "All the box weapons and rings... have been recovered by me."

Knowing that what was stored in the white device was decomposed ten years later, Sawada Tsunayoshi lost even the goal of destroying the device.Cerbero forced him to hand over the Dakong Ring, and before the countdown ended, two more gunshots were fired.

"……Eh?"

Sawada Tsunayoshi still maintained the posture of picking off the ring, watching Cerbero fall in front of him.Irie took off his coat with trembling hands, and sat on the ground with weak knees, as if his momentum was being extinguished.The base commander, who was full of threats just now, instantly became an ordinary person, even his voice was trembling.

"You are finally here...I have been waiting for you for a long time." Irie Zhengyi breathed a sigh of relief, "I am your companion."

Beating them like this, and saying that they will be poisoned to death with gas, is it too convincing to say that they are companions? !

Prison Temple immediately expressed doubts, and Irie was scratching his hair frantically, finally explained the general situation, and remembered that he had forgotten to connect to the main battlefield in Italy.

While waiting for Varian's news, Spana and Kusakabe first gave all the wounded a simple treatment.Except for Sasakawa and Heiwa Yamamoto who are still unconscious, everyone else is still in good spirits.Sawada Tsunayoshi ran to help regardless of his injuries.After dressing up the prison temple, he saw Terasaki Xing still sitting in the device in a daze.

"apricot?"

He leaned in, Terasaki Apricot heard him calling her, and slowly stretched out her hand in this direction.

"Give you."

It is a transparent ring.

Sawada Tsunayoshi was stunned: "Why do you give me this? Did you get hurt anywhere? If there is a wound, bandage it first..."

Terasaki Xing didn't speak, it seemed that he had been planning to stretch her like this without taking her.Sawada Tsunayoshi had no choice but to take it, and Toru's voice rang in his ears at the same time.

"Leave her alone."

"What the hell happened?"

"It's a long story, and I can't explain it clearly for a while. Let her rest for a while."

Sawada Tsunayoshi walked away in three steps and turned his head. Toru followed beside him, and sighed slightly when he saw the girl sitting back mechanically.

The moment Mei Ueno ignited the ring, everything around her was covered in hallucinations.The Meroni base turned into a city that was attacked by artillery fire, and the mist condensed into a human figure behind Terasaki Anko.

——In view of your previous history of repentance and resistance, in order to ensure that you will no longer interfere with Vongola's actions from now on...

Tou finally realized what they meant.

"Don't look, Xing!!"

He stopped Terasaki Anko from turning around, and even forgot his translucent body to block her sight, but it was too late.

Terasaki Anko suddenly opened her eyes wide, and kept stepping back.He lost his balance when he stepped on the gravel near his feet, and fell to the ground.

Not far from her, the bruised Tsunayoshi Sawada was lying in a pool of blood.Not only him, but Hayato, Takeshi Yamamoto, Kyoko and Koharu, and even little Ippei and Rambo are no exception.All the people she was familiar with related to Vongola were there, and lifeless corpses were scattered here and there.

It's because of you.

A voice kept telling her.

All because of you, they all died.

"Why did Xing hide it from me?"

"Why did you kill Judaime?"

"Master Lanbo doesn't want to die!"

"Xiao Xing, why?"

They were all talking and accusing her of concealing in their minds, Terasaki Apricot covered her ears in dismay, and those voices kept drilling into her head.

"No! No! I didn't do it on purpose... I have already promised, I have promised!"

The high-rise building destroyed by the fire was crumbling. Stones fell from the sky and hit the ground, raising a cloud of choking dust. The falling wall instantly buried them.

Terasaki Xing was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly crawled over and knelt in front of the ruins, reaching out to pick up the stones.His fingers quickly turned black and red, and Tou shouted at her anxiously, but she couldn't hear anything.

Tou wanted to pull her up, but the incorporeal arm flew into the air.He turned around and stared at Mei Ueno angrily, and asked sharply: "Hasn't she already surrendered, why did she still do this?! Are you going to drive her crazy?"

"In order to increase the probability."

Mei Ueno's tone was indifferent, and she had no guilt about the scene in front of her—of course they wouldn't feel guilty either.The Ring of the Observer flickered around her neck, and the world line that appeared before stretched behind her.

The world still stops at the watcher's ring Mars flickering picture, shrouded in fog and blurred.

"Even if she made this decision, the world line is still not clear, and it is very likely that an accident will happen later. Therefore, we believe that only by letting her completely cut off the idea of ​​​​interfering with Pengo Li, can the probability be raised to the peak. "

She tilted her head slightly and raised the corners of her mouth.

"This is the fate of meddling again - what can be more memorable than witnessing it with your own eyes? Although you can't kill her with your own hands, testing your will... is also within the rules."

Tou clenched his hands—he hadn't had a body for a long time, and he didn't remember what pain was.But at this time, he wished so much that he had a body that could move, at least he could pull Anko Terasaki away.

"Aren't you afraid that she will do the same thing as me?"

"She won't." Ueno Mei affirmed, "Indeed, we have seen the negative effects of extreme emotions from you. But Terasaki Apricot is just a little girl after all, much weaker than you, and she collapsed in just a short while. Unlike your despair, as long as she still holds the hope of keeping Sawada Tsunayoshi alive and doesn't want this to happen, she will abide by our agreement."

"Use this scene to remind yourself all the time, and you will always be trapped in the hell of self-blame and fear?" Tou Leng snorted, "You might as well kill her."

"This is your own request."

"Do I still have to thank you for your mercy?"

Ueno Mei didn't answer his sarcasm, snapped her fingers, and the surrounding area returned to the normal base room.Before Terasaki Xing could dig out a person buried inside, the pile of stones in front of her turned into a flat ground again.

The charred ashes on his hands disappeared, leaving only the small wounds on the ground.She sat there in a daze, as if she was still immersed in the terrible scene just now.

"Ten years ago... did I see this too?"

"No." Ueno Mei answered her, "After you knew the facts, you quickly chose to give up. We didn't put forward conditions for retaining your personality, and the first one was eliminated smoothly. If it wasn't for Sawada Tsunayoshi who sent you back ten years later , there won’t be so many twists and turns.”

Terasaki Anko sat still for a while, then stood up unsteadily.

"I've had enough."

"Eliminate me together, and don't keep these memories and personalities."

If I had known that I would have to go through so much pain, I might as well have given up at the beginning.

"Forget me, please, don't torture me anymore."

She walked over in a trance, and Mei Ueno held out her hand to her.The ring dropped to the fingertips, and when he was about to hand it forward, the voice of Tou came from behind.

"You are not wrong. Compared with the world, individuals are not worth mentioning at all, but... I am not such a great guy, so don't underestimate me."

The boy's eyes didn't look downcast at all, on the contrary they were terribly bright.

"She won't listen. Speaking of it, her brain should be blank now, just relying on instinct? You can't get it back."

"How do you know if you don't try? Besides, I know more about her instinct than you."

He laughed, as if he wanted to challenge countless pairs of indifferent eyes behind her through her pupils.The next words were not for them.

"Terasaki Anko, you can die if you want to, don't drag me along."

Terasaki Anko paused, and turned to look at him blankly.

"I repented, and I don't intend to be obedient. You said you wouldn't let me hand it over from your hands, then fulfill your promise. If you want to die, wait until you hand me over to Sawada Tsunayoshi. What qualifications do you have? Decide for me?!"

"Don't forget that I brought you back ten years ago, and I was the one who gave you a second life. Even if you think about it now, pay off what you owe me!"

His tone became more and more severe, accusing her head and face.Terasaki Anko stopped not far from Ueno Mei, and looked down at the ring again, as if trying to figure out the meaning of his words.

"What's the point? Your words can only make her hesitate for a while at most."

"One more second of hesitation, maybe I can win too, for example..."

He looked at the wall suddenly covered with fine lines behind Ueno Mei, and smiled deeply.

"Now."

The huge spikes smashed through the wall, and the ever-split and enlarged ball needles overwhelmingly squeezed towards them.Kusakabe Tetsuya held a blade of grass in his mouth, and with a bunch of seriously wounded on his back, he yelled: "Run! Miss Terasaki!!!"

"Look, I won."

"Useless resistance. We don't care about such a short time." Mei Ueno avoided the spikes, "Don't worry, we will find you, see you tomorrow night... Terasaki Anko."

Her figure quickly disappeared into the ruins, and Tetsuya Kusakabe had already fled to the front. Seeing that his companion was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great, Miss Terasaki, can you help Miss Coulom... Wait a minute, Miss Terasaki ???"

The girl fell in his direction, Kusakabe Tetsuya reflexively blocked it with his still unattached chest, and subconsciously wanted to ask for help from Hibari Kyouya who was still supporting the prison temple.The young man gave him a cold look, showing no intention of helping.

"Make up your own mind."

No!He thought he could have two more reliable labors!

"..."

Forget it, it is better to count on Bai Lan to put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha right away, than to count on the Chairman who is still angry.Cao Bi clenched a group of people on his back, with the momentum of breaking the boat.

"Miss Coulom, can I change into a car?"

Colum apologized in embarrassment: "I'm afraid I can't do it..."

"Where is the cart?"

"Yes, sorry..."

"Okay." Cao Bi looked at the unconscious Terasaki Anko, and asked to descend from the plateau to the basin, "It's also okay to change the rope."

##

When he woke up again, he had already arrived at the research room.

Bai Lan's stereoscopic image announced that Choice had become reality, and after Irie gave the Vongley box to the guardians, the battle at the Meloni base finally came to an end.Ten years ago, Ryohei Sasakawa finally came here. The exhausted guardians almost had no flames to inject into the box, so they had to listen to Irie Masaichi's arrangement and go back to rest first.

Everyone supported each other and walked to the door. Tsunayoshi Sawada heard someone lower his voice and call his name like a secret signal.

"Gang, Ji, Jun——"

Delusion?

Sawada Tsunayoshi turned his head, pointed at himself, Irie nodded vigorously, and waved at him again, still looking like a thief: "There is something for you."

What are you doing so mysteriously...

Affected by him, Sawada Tsunayoshi also tiptoed out of the team and walked to Irie Masaichi's side.The red-haired youth dug out a black box from the corner, and searched for the key again.

"what is this?"

"I don't know." Irie Zhengyi opened the lock on it, "Anyway, Tsunayoshi-kun asked me to give it to you ten years later, and said that you should read it alone, saying it is very important."

alone?important?Still hiding it from others?

Sawada Tsunayoshi felt dizzy: "This can't be some kind of Pandora's box, it will release some devil when it is opened?"

"I don't know either... Ah, it's open!"

Irie opened the lid of the box and peeled off the protective paper.Sawada Tsunayoshi poked his head over and was slightly taken aback when he saw what was in the box.

It was a wooden sign, which seemed to be very old, the writing on it was somewhat blurred, and the rope tied at the top had also turned yellow.

He also took out the same thing from his pocket: "Xing's wishing card?"

"There are more." Irie took out the bottom ones together - this time it was a notebook with "Terazaki Family Instructions" written on the cover.

"Family training???"

What the hell?Could it be the family tree of Xing?Or what is the family law of doing a hundred sets of exercises without cleaning?

Besides, isn't this Xing's stuff? What are you doing for him?

As soon as Irie saw the notebook, he seemed to think of something too.

"I've seen this before... If I remember correctly, Mrs. Kobayashi should have given it to Tsuna Ji-kun."

"Mrs. Kobayashi?" Tsunayoshi Sawada blurted out, and quickly realized, "Could it be Nakajima-san?"

"Ah yes, her original name was Ayako Nakajima, and she married Mr. Kobayashi after graduating from university. Tsunayoshi-kun asked me to contact her once when we were still making plans, and then I also sent the person who was going to be sent ten years ago. Including Ms. Terasaki...Anyway," he stuffed everything into his arms, "I brought everything I wanted, Tsunayoshi-kun, let's go back and rest first."

"But, but, this book belongs to Xing, I don't think it's very good, right?"

"Almost forgot!" Irie Masaichi emphasized to him with a terrified expression, "You must not tell her first, and Tsuna Ji-kun said that you will understand after reading it, and also said...he can only do this, the rest I'll leave the next thing up to you."

"what??"

Sawada Tsunayoshi has nothing to say about himself ten years later.

First sent everyone over, and then kept Xing's things without permission, and was not allowed to tell her.Why is he talking to himself like that.And it must be difficult for him to do something ten years later, right?Where did he get the confidence that he can do it now?

"Sawada! Are you still leaving?"

The only healthy Sasakawa Ryohei and Kusakabe were responsible for transporting the wounded, and when they finally pushed away Lal's stretcher, seeing that Tsunayoshi Sawada was still here, he urged him to go back together.Sawada Tsunayoshi buttoned the box and held it in his arms.

A group of people returned to the ground. Just after noon, the dazzling sunlight shone on the road.High-rise buildings, people passing by, the familiar scene seems to have not been seen for a long time.

Even though they couldn't sense Mirufiore's flames for a long time, they still walked cautiously through the crowd.When they reached the intersection, they heard shouts from across the road.

"Mr. Gang!"

"Mr. Gang!"

Jingzi and Xiaochun stood under the traffic lights, and Johnny Er was already so excited that he was wiping tears.

The action was faster than the thought, and the footsteps were unconsciously moving towards the opposite side.Biyangqi hugged her wounded younger brother, grinning in pain, but rarely pushed her away.Rambo and Yiping, who started bickering again, sat on Fengta's shoulders, Kyoko hugged her elder brother from ten years ago, and Xiaochun also supported the weak Coulom to greet him.

Terasaki Anko gradually recovered.

She walked slowly and was the last, separated from them by the sudden rush of the crowd.The strange thing is that by this time, I don't feel sad or flustered anymore.

The observers say they will find her, will they come to the base?

Then it would be better for her to leave, but then... where should she go?

There was a soft touch on her wrist, and someone pulled her away from the shadow of the tall building.The sun poured down on the shoulders, and the limbs warmed up bit by bit.

Sawada Tsunayoshi turned back through the crowd, holding a box in one hand and holding her with the other.On the other side of the dispersed crowd were Haru and Kyoko who were waving their hands, and everyone gathered behind them.

"Go back, everyone is waiting for us."
