Finally, Shizuku suggested that Kurosawa Rei stay for one night to observe carefully what this dream was about. Kurosawa Rei hesitated for a moment and then nodded in agreement. The sisters Amagura Mayu and Amagura Mio stayed to accompany Kurosawa Rei, and as for Amagura Hotaru... well, there were a lot of girls here, so it was not convenient for him to stay here.
Go wherever is cool, or if all else fails, go to an alley outside and spend the night covered with old newspapers. After all, men have strong survival skills.
For Shizuku, having more guests was no problem at all. After all, her bed... ahem, the guest room was quite big. So soon, Kurosawa Rei and the twins were arranged to stay in the guest room, and then everyone had dinner together.
During this time, everyone also exchanged their experiences with each other, especially Amakura Mio, who was somewhat relieved. After all, after entering the Minamigami Village, her sister Amakura Mayu was possessed by Kurosawa Saeki most of the time, and the specific situation and memory were not very clear. Amakura Mio followed Shizuku and Hinasaki Shinku to visit the Minamigami Village from the beginning to the end, so naturally she knew a lot of things.
But she couldn't tell her family, and she didn't want to discuss the issue in detail with her sister. Now when she met Hinasaki Shinku and Shizuku again, Amakura Mio relaxed a lot and started chatting with them happily.
After dinner, everyone went to rest, and Kurosawa Rei lay down on the bed with an uneasy mood, and fell asleep soon.
When she opened her eyes again, she saw a huge mansion with snow falling all around, but surprisingly, there was no temperature at all. The whole world seemed to have lost its color and was covered in black and white.
“…”
Looking at the mansion in front of her, Kurosawa Rei took a breath of cold air, and at this moment, another voice suddenly came from beside her.
"It's this mansion..."
"Why?"
Kurosawa Rei turned her head and saw Hinasaki Shinku standing beside her, looking at the house in front of her with a complicated expression.
"Is this the dream Sister Lian had?"
At the same time, accompanied by the flying red butterflies, the voice of Amagura Mio also sounded on the other side of Kurosawa Rei.
"Ms. Hinasaki? Mio? Why are you here?"
At this moment, Kurosawa Rei was also surprised. She had never expected that these two people would appear in her dream.
Hearing Kurosawa Rei's question, Hinasaki Shinku and Amakura Mio looked at each other and shook their heads.
"We don't know either, Ms. Kurosawa. I just went to bed normally, but when I opened my eyes, I found myself here..."
"Me too……"
Amakura Mio also nodded, and then she looked at the mansion in front of her with a little uneasiness. Under the white snow, the whole mansion was pitch black, and the whole world was like a black and white movie, monotonous and weird. Not only that, a twisted, cold breath emerged from it, as if a poisonous snake was hiding in the grass, wanting to devour any prey that dared to step into it.
"I don't know if it's an illusion, but I have a very bad feeling. There seems to be some kind of aura emanating from under this house..."
"The Gate of the Underworld..."
Hinasaki Shinkuren complained silently, and looked like she didn't want to talk. She was so familiar with this thing that she didn't have any idea about it.
On the contrary, it was Amakura Mio who was shocked after hearing what Hinasaki Shinhong said.
"Hey? Is there a gate to Hades here too? Isn't this the dream of sister Kurosawa Rei?"
"Uh...what is the Yellow Springs Gate you are talking about?"
Listening to the conversation between Hinasaki Shinku and Amakura Mio, Kurosawa Rei was confused. She had a feeling that these two girls younger than her didn't seem to be panicked at all by this kind of scene, and even seemed quite calm. You know, when Kurosawa Rei first dreamed of entering this world, she was scared. However, looking at the reactions of Hinasaki Shinku and Amakura Mio, it was more like "No way, again?"...
"Let's go in first."
Hinasaki Shinkuren didn't answer Kurosawa Rei's question right away, but looked around. The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and it even felt like a swan's feather snow. The weird thing was that even though the snow was so heavy, it didn't feel warm at all, as if the snow in front of her was just a backdrop.
"If we continue to stay here, we might be swallowed by the blizzard, and then we will be in trouble."
The other two had no objection to Hinasaki Shinku's proposal, so the three of them quickly entered the mansion in front of them. During this time, Hinasaki Shinku and Amakura Mio also gave Kurosawa Rei a general knowledge about the Gate of Hades, which immediately surprised her.
"I never thought that something like this actually existed...but why did I dream about this?"
Listening to the stories of Hinasaki Shinku and Amakura Mio, Kurosawa Rei couldn't believe it. You know, she is a photographer who specializes in taking supernatural photos, but in fact, Kurosawa Rei has never taken any supernatural photos most of the time. There was even a time when Kurosawa Rei believed that there were no ghosts in this world.
Unexpectedly, the two girls in front of him had actually seen things that only existed in legends.
"Well..."
Hearing Kurosawa Rei's question, Hinasaki Shinku and Amakura Mio looked at each other helplessly.
"It's probably because the people in this place want to use some kind of ritual to seal the gate to the underworld..."
"But the seal failed, and as a result, the gate to Hades opened, and miasma poured out, swallowing up everyone."
"That's why it became like this..."
Having said that, the two looked at each other and sighed.
“…”
Listening to the conversation between the two, Kurosawa Rei was confused.
"How did you know that?"
"Because it was like this before..."
Hinasaki Shinku was speechless. Himuro residence... Minamikami Village... isn't it the same routine?
Instead, Amakura Mio breathed a sigh of relief silently.
Fortunately, my sister didn’t come in…wait.
"Where's Sister Shizuku?"
At this moment, Amakura Mio realized that they were able to leave Minamigami Village alive because Shizuku was by their side. But now Shizuku has not appeared yet, what's going on? Could it be that she was not attracted to Kurosawa Rei's dream, but she and Sister Crimson were attracted in?
"Ding-ling-ling..."
At this moment, the cell phone next to Hinasaki Shinko suddenly rang. Hinasaki Shinko hurriedly answered the phone, and soon, Shizuku's voice came from the other end.
"Are you all right?"
"Sister Shizuku!"
Hearing Shizuku's voice, both Hinasaki Shinku and Amakura Mio breathed a sigh of relief.
"We are fine..."
"That's good. Listen carefully. You are now in a spiritual dream. I can't enter for the time being."
Shizuku was also very depressed about this. When Kurosawa Rei was dreaming, Shizuku originally thought about entering her dream, but a problem arose - Shizuku was Fang Zheng's clone, and Fang Zheng had the power of the ancient gods to invade dreams. On the other hand, because the power of the ancient gods was too strong, Shizuku could not invade the dream at all.
Because this dream is quite fragile, to put it bluntly, it's like a small house built by a group of people using Lego blocks. If you put your hand in and apply a little force, the whole house will collapse. In this case, Shizuku can't get in.
"So what should we do?"
Hearing that Shizuku couldn't come in, Hinasaki Shinku and Amakura Mio suddenly became a little nervous.
"The dream is just an extension. You protect Miss Kurosawa Rei and continue to go deeper. It would be best if we can find some clues. I will follow the dream to find the location of the mansion in the real world and then seal the gate to the underworld."
Dreams are just illusions after all, just like online games. If you want to really defeat them, you have to go directly to the computer room and smash the server, rather than playing invasion on the client.
Although the reason is unknown, it seems that the gate of Hades in that place was opened because of the failure of the ritual, which caused this strange phenomenon and pulled people into the dream. Therefore, Shizuku only needs to find the location of the mansion in reality and close the gate of Hades from there to solve this problem.
"OK."
After hearing Shizuku's answer, Hinasaki Shinkuen relaxed a little, but soon she asked nervously again.
"What if we run into that tattooed woman?"
According to Rei Kurosawa, she had met the tattooed woman in her dreams several times before, and each time she would chase her. In the end, Rei Kurosawa would wake up during the chase and then feel the marks of tattoos on her body. From this, it can be seen that the tattooed woman must be a powerful character, which makes Hinasaki Shinku somewhat worried.
"Don't worry, you have the camera of the Imperial Mirror in your hand. It has a high-definition 12-megapixel camera. All evil spirits will be forced to kneel. If she dares to cause trouble for you, just shoot her back!"
Listening to Shizuku's confident voice coming from the phone, Hinasaki Shinku and Amakura Mio gradually calmed down. Indeed, they had experienced similar things before, and now it was just happening again. What was there to be afraid of?
Thinking of this, the two looked at each other and nodded, then looked at Kurosawa Rei.
"Ms. Kurosawa, let's go."
“Ah… um…”
Looking at the two girls in front of him who were aggressive and in a changed mental state, Kurosawa Rei nodded blankly, and then followed the two people into the depths of the mansion.
but……
Are all girls nowadays so brave?
Looking at Hinasaki Shinku and Amakura Mio in front of her, Kurosawa Rei deeply felt the existence of the "generation gap".
