Chapter 11 Chapter Eleven

As soon as he stood in the center of the pattern, Mina's mirror of reality, hanging around her neck, shone brightly. Without anyone pointing him, Wat naturally drew out the sword of the brave and raised it above his head.Then, he closed his eyes. The tip of the sword flashed, and then the pattern also glowed.White, red, blue, then white again, finally radiating gold, the pattern disappeared. Gen opened his eyes. black.It was pitch black everywhere, and I couldn't even see the ground under my feet, and I couldn't even see the sword of the brave that should be tightly held in my hand, and I couldn't even see the tip of my nose.

Only the mirror on the chest is shining.And his light is directed forward, forming a tunnel-like passage of light. Gen began to walk among them, alone, without even the sound of footsteps.Beyond the tunnel of light was darkness.Maybe this is the ancient canyon in another dimension that Teacher Rao said. Soon, a person appeared—it turned out to be Mentor Rao.Run up. "Master Tutor!" Instructor Rao seemed in a bad mood and seemed a little depressed. "Keep me waiting—you really are!" he said, yawning. "Is it that hard to find the first gem?" "I'm sorry! But I'm really overwhelmed by all kinds of situations."

"Oh, that's fine." The instructor finally smiled, "Follow this passage of light for a little bit, and there will be an exit, and you will be in this world when you go out." Because of tension, his throat felt dry. "The exit is connected to the place where the person you met is. So, you don't have to hesitate. Okay, let's go!" The instructor pushed Gen's shoulder, "But don't forget, if you hear the passage of light Come the bell of 'ding, dong, kuang', that is the reminder to return. The bell struck slowly at first, but as time approached, it became louder and louder. At that time, you have to run back to the tunnel. If the tunnel If you disappear, you will fall into the eternal canyon."

The instructor raised his chin. "I must go. Can't wait for you to come back. You can only rely on the bell. Keep your ears open and listen!" "Yes, I understand." Heng trotted forward.Soon, I saw something white.Exit of the tunnel - there's something white in there.white... It's a hospital bed. In the hospital.His mother, Kuniko, was right there, and he was sound asleep. Gen stood beside his mother's pillow.The ward is a double room, but the bed next to it is empty.Only the mother is a patient. There are no street lights.Outside the curtain is also the night sky.Peeping out from the window, this place is about the height of the third floor, and you can see rows of street lights. The "fantasy world" and the present world are indeed staggered in time.

"Mom!" Gen called softly.Mother let out a quiet snort. Mom looks the same as before leaving for the fantasy world, but she also looks a little thinner.Above the head is nailed a wooden sign with the name of the attending doctor and the date of admission.It's a physician.The date of admission was the day my mother unscrewed the gas cock out of desperation. Someone called an ambulance. Great!Ahh, great.I want to thank the kind people... It would be better to wake up his mother and explain to him, but for some reason, Gen couldn't make a sound, and he couldn't touch his mother.Mommy is asleep and safe in the hospital, it doesn't matter.Several degrees of sadness and peace of mind mixed together, filling his chest.

Red flowers in a milk bottle and a tissue box are placed beside the pillow.There was a paper bag at the foot of the bed, peeking out, there were bales of towels and underwear, and Mom's handbag. In the handbag I found a pad that doubles as an address book and a small ballpoint pen.He wrote a piece of paper privately: ——I'm fine, don't worry.I will definitely be back, please wait for me.through. He folded the piece of paper into a smaller size, stuffed it into his mother's palm, and held it tightly again.Mom made a sound like "oh" and turned over slightly. Waited for a while.However, the mother did not wake up.A bell of "Ding, Dang, Bang" came from behind his ears.

Who came to visit?Chiba's grandma and Uncle "Lu"?Odawara's grandparents?Everyone must be very worried. Is it dad? Thinking of his father, the feelings he had forgotten because he was only focused on adventure travel in the fantasy world, revived instantly and overwhelmed Wataru.He clenched his fists with both hands, holding back motionlessly, waiting for the storm in his heart to dissipate. The bell rang faster than before. Just wait for me, everything will be fine.Because I want to make everything better.Because I will definitely, will definitely reach the Tower of Destiny.Whispering in his heart, he turned around.
