[Digimon DA] Parallel Lines

When she appeared on Fauilu Island like a ghost, the fire in Haneda Chika's heart had already been extinguished, replaced by waves of uneasiness.

Recalling what the old man Xuannei said to herself not long ago, she couldn't help feeling worried──

"Qianhua, most of the monitoring equipment can't be used now, but we still know the children's movements." Gennai old man stroked his beard, his expression was the same as usual, but Haneda Chika felt that he was planning something.

"Your real body stayed in the real world, so you created a special situation for your body—if you were outside, you would not be able to maintain a physical form, that is, no one would be able to see you."

"...I see. You want to say that this shortcoming can become my advantage?" Chika Haneda quickly understood what the other party meant, and began to consider the possibility of this matter. "Wouldn't it happen that I came to the digital world in the first place?"

"Hmm... um..." The old man Gennai prolonged his tone on purpose again, showing off his tricks, and Haneda Chika, who knew his bad taste, just patiently waited for the answer.

"Honestly, you'd be dangerous."

"What?"

Haneda Chika didn't react for a while, and froze in place, but the other party didn't allow her time to digest this sentence, so she continued to explain.

"Your body is very special, but the data here is relatively stable. If you are outside, you can touch Digimon and everything in the digital world, which will make the data in your body mess up again."

"Even so, Chika Haneda, do you want to go?"

This is the first day that the old man Xuannei has called her by her full name since this period of time.

This is not just a question, it is telling her that she has to make a choice.

──You can stay where you are and enjoy the same stability, or you can give up all this and dedicate yourself to dangerous adventures,

──Start on the road of adventure alone.

"That's it..." Haneda Chika clenched her fists, trying to organize the chaotic thoughts in her heart into words. "I also...can't just stay where I am."

She seemed to be able to see herself sitting lonely on the swing when she ran to the nearby park alone facing the empty house after the woman had left.

Little she told herself that she wasn't angry and hurt because of that woman, because of what happened in this false world.

Even though she told herself like this, she already knew in her heart that she could not go back.

She is already the real "Chika Haneda".

Later, the little boy came to her, still looking like he had no troubles.

The little girl who was wondering whether she really wanted to live as "Haneda Chika" and whether she could really live like this, looked at that face and became angry all of a sudden.She took out all her anger on him, but he didn't get angry.

She couldn't remember what kind of conversation they had in the middle.

She only remembered saying in a hoarse voice, "You don't understand! I can't go on anymore! I don't know what to do!"

The little boy didn't know if he understood what she said, but after thinking about it for a while, he held her shoulder and said, "Be courageous!"

Have courage.

I don't know if it is because of this sentence that she has come to the present.

"I can't stop here."

"I... I want to have courage."

Chika Haneda made up her mind, and the old man Gennai didn't say much.He handed her the communication equipment and reminded her that he would only contact her when necessary.If there is data confusion in her body, she will be sent back through this as soon as possible, but be careful in everything.

In this way, a person's journey is about to begin.

It was gratifying, but also sad.

***

Even though she knew that the road ahead might be rough, even though no one would know her, she did not regret making this decision.Now, where she is located is a cliff overlooking the entire island, and the childhood sweetheart boy she has been worried about is just a few steps ahead.At first, she didn't expect that she would be teleported to such a close place, so she was naturally taken aback.In fact, however, she just widened her eyes a little to show her surprise.

It was too boring to observe, so Chika Haneda started to think about other things.She was aware of her facial expression just now, and thought that after living as "Haneda Chika" for ten years, she really showed signs of "facial paralysis".

——I feel tired and don’t love anymore [cover my face]

——No, there seems to be something strange mixed in.

Chika Haneda shook her head, throwing this strange thought out of her mind.She took a step forward and found that she could kick a rock.Unexpectedly, the small stone hit the back of Yagami Taichi in front of him.When she was in a daze, she heard Yagami Taichi scream in pain.He looked around but didn't find anyone throwing stones at him on purpose, so he gave a strange "Huh?"Agumon next to him saw Yagami Taichi's appearance and asked:

"Taichi, what's wrong?"

"It's okay..." Yagami Taichi looked at everyone in the original state, and the stone probably flew from a direction where no one was there.Perhaps it was an unimaginable relationship, he only looked in that direction for a while, and then didn't delve into it further.

When Yagami Taichi looked in his direction, Chika Haneda took a step back with a guilty conscience.Before kicking the stone, she remembered that the old man Xuannei said that the current self can touch things in the digital world.So, with a mentality of trying, she lightly touched Yagami Taichi's back—her hand penetrated through.

For a moment, she was a little disappointed.

Sure enough, it was impossible to touch them.

Disappointed, she touched Agumon's back with her fingers in a mischievous mood -- tickling.When she was almost satisfied, she let go.After confirming that she could touch the Digimon, she thought about some things, ignoring the other party's reaction.

Yagumon looked around and saw that there was no one behind him, tilting his head to express doubts, his expression was the same as that of Yagami Taichi just now.

"Agumon, what's wrong?"

"……fine."

Haneda Chien finally came to a conclusion, combined with what the old man Gennai said before, she understands that she can physically affect things in the digital world, including Digimon, but perhaps it is because these children come from another world , or because she lacked a real physical relationship, she couldn't touch them.

Today, these children have become a very different existence from her.

If you tell yourself that you will never lose, you are deceiving yourself.However, she told herself that the current situation also has advantages for her, just take one step at a time.

Even though Chika Haneda didn't know how she should help them, she still decided to follow them to see the situation temporarily.

"Taiyi, what are you doing?"

Seeing that no one person or beast wanted to pursue what happened just now, Haneda Chika was secretly relieved.Hearing Agumon's question to Yagami Taichi, she leaned forward curiously to have a look.

"Draw a map, maybe we can use it later."

She poked her head out from Yagami Taichi's shoulder, and when she saw the "map" Taichi was drawing, she froze, and quickly stepped aside, with a pale face.

How could she forget such an important thing.

The children behind him also stepped forward to look at it, showing the same expression as Chika Haneda.she

She actually forgot that Yagami Taichi had no talent for painting at all, not at all.

"No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it will be helpful..." Ishida Yamato looked at those chaotic black lines with doubts, and Takeuchi Sora beside him also told the truth: "Taichi is not very good at painting. Woolen cloth……"

Faced with the complaints of the two, Yagami Taichi finally broke out.

"It's good that the person who drew it can understand it!"

Chika Haneda couldn't help thinking: No, I believe you can't understand it yourself.

Afterwards, she didn't bother with their drama anymore, and she began to indulge in her own memories.

When they were young, they were sitting and drawing pictures. Haneda Chika saw that he had drawn a picture that looked like a puppy, and just wanted to say that he did a good job. Unexpectedly, when the other party showed her the picture, she happily said: "Chika Look at the picture I drew, do you look like me!"

Afterwards, she snatched this "masterpiece" directly and gave him a good lesson with the drawing book.Later, she was also scolded by her mother.

Thinking of the past, she couldn't help showing a smile on her face.She used to be quite childish, and Taichi Yagami could bear it.When he grew up, he didn't get revenge for these things.

——No, I'm afraid it's because he doesn't remember.

Haneda Chika's smile gradually became bitter, and she sighed again.

He will always have many unforgettable and deep memories without her.

Will they become merely "acquaintances" one day?

No, she will try her best to catch up.

and so……

For a moment, Haneda Chika felt a chill, and had a bad premonition in her heart.

It stands to reason that she can physically affect everything in the digital world and vice versa, but that's not on snow at all.

Standing far away from the children, she clearly heard the sound of rocks breaking on the road.The children also noticed this. When they saw it, the road was cut off, and a nimble figure appeared.

To be honest, she was terrified to see the human lion so close.But this is not the only thing that really scares her. She can feel the ominous aura emanating from the other party.

On the other hand, when the Digimon saw this figure, it immediately felt relieved, and explained to the children that it was a kind Digimon—Lionmon.

No, not at all.

As the data, Chika Haneda seemed to be able to see an evil aura emerging from the opponent's back.

"To defeat...the children..." Leomon muttered to himself, as if repeating someone's order.

The children also noticed that something was wrong, and when the lion beast was about to attack, they ran away immediately.Haneda Chika immediately fell to the ground when the lion beast jumped forward, she couldn't show her feet now.Immediately, she stabilized her body and stood up, catching up to it.

Her physical performance was not good, and she thought it would be difficult to catch up with them, but found that her body was surprisingly light.It seemed that her physical fitness would not be a burden on her, and she felt a little relieved.

She tried her best to catch up with them, and stood vigilantly behind Leo Beast, only to find that Taichi Yagami, who she was most worried about, walked back because of the map.She gritted her teeth and jumped forward, trying to catch the paper, but she forgot that she couldn't touch anything from the real world. When her fingers pierced through the paper, Agumon tried to save her partner. It used "Small Flame" to attack Leomon.

Looking at the oncoming fireball, Haneda Chika squatted down a little panicked, but tripped over a stone and rolled to the side, her body was extremely painful from the uneven road.There will be no wounds on her body, but it doesn't mean she won't feel pain.If she is directly attacked by Digimon, she will easily become scattered data.

Seeing that the map was accidentally burned and Taichi also followed the team again, she felt abandoned.No one can see her, no matter how painful she is, no one will turn around and save her for her.

She smiled to herself, she knew this a long time ago.

There was no time for her to be sad at all right now, she used her body advantage, ignoring the pain, and tried her best to catch up with the children.

She won't regret it, it's the path she chose.

She kept running behind the kids until they saw another Digimon and stopped.The Digimons quickly recognized that it was the evil Digimon ─ ─ Ogamon.Now, they are all in a situation where they are under attack.

Haneda Chika anxiously considered the solution, but quickly discovered that there was nothing she could do.

But after a while, the Digimons have all evolved to the mature stage to protect the children.

Seeing the evolution of this Digimon again, she almost froze, then pursed her mouth, her eyes looked gloomy.

──"Evolution"......?

──Such a powerful force, such a powerful partner, she alone does not deserve to have it.

There is absolutely no room for her to worry, because the Digimon are divided into two sides to attack the enemy.The children cheered for their partners one after another, and the situation seemed to be going well.In an instant, the cliff above them collapsed, and huge rubble fell directly above them.

She was going to jump up and hide aside, but found that she couldn't move her feet.Obviously she can't do anything, but she can't bear to escape alone, she feels that she is useless.

Faced with this crisis, the Digimon used their nirvana to shatter the rocks, turning them into sand and falling down.In order not to be seen, she followed a few children to hide beside a big rock, but they couldn't block the whole body.At this time, Gao Shiwu, the only Digimon by his side, hugged Badamon tightly, but saw a strange scene.

Part of the sand stopped in mid-air, as if it was covered by something, but in the blink of an eye, this strange phenomenon disappeared.

"Awu, what's wrong?" Badamon followed the direction he was staring at, but found nothing abnormal.

"Hmm..." He thought he was wrong, and shook his head to express that it was all right.

The enemies were gone, and the children were relieved and very happy.Chika Haneda looked at it, and found that only Yagami Taiyi looked up, with a strange expression.

"Why did the cliff suddenly collapse?"

Haneda Chika who heard his words also felt a little abnormal.

Izumi Koshiro in the front calmly analyzed: "It may be that when the road was broken, cracks appeared on the cliff."

Yagami Taichi agreed with this statement, and did not go any further.

Chika Haneda couldn't believe it.

She felt a more evil and darker feeling than the breath of the lion beast, just above them, which made her not immediately follow the children, but stood still.

From behind, which the children didn't notice, a pitch-black figure appeared, and Chika Haneda looked at the other person's appearance, and suddenly felt terrified.When I watched animation in my previous life, I deeply understood that it was just a false image, so naturally I didn't feel anything.However, when that tall and frightening figure appeared before her eyes, she couldn't move.

──This is... a demon.

── Demon Beast.

She was deeply afraid of this enemy.

She was even afraid that at this time when children and Digimon were most vulnerable, it would take the opportunity to destroy them.

But it didn't do anything, just watched them for a while and then went away.

Haneda Chika sneered.

If it strikes now, they are simply vulnerable.

She is afraid of it, but she understands its final fate better than anyone else.

She stared at the figure for a long time, but regained the feeling of her feet and left in a hurry.

Deserves to be defeated.

she thought so.

The author has something to say: Qianhuajiang's miserable journey restarts...

I hate you if you don’t reply after reading the text

Did the Little Thousand Flower King in the previous chapter scare you away→→

In the end, Qianhuajiang was actually a little bit dark.

I remembered the sentence: "The villain dies because of talking too much" and I really wanted to laugh [cover face]
