New Year's Eve night.
Seiji, Shi and Reo were sitting by the kotatsu watching TV together.
On the TV screen, an uncle dressed in bright red, strangely shaped gold ornaments, and exaggerated makeup is dancing a girlish dance while singing cheerful songs... Although his whole body is full of flaws, he is unexpectedly not annoying Nah, it looks interesting.
After this distinctive male singer sang, the hostess and hostess talked nonsense, and then it was the turn of the aunt in plain cherry clothes... Oh no, the female singer came on stage, and behind her was a group of handsome men in cherry clothes as backup dancers.
The female singers sang very well, but the dances performed by these handsome men looked awkward and confusing, making people too concerned to listen to the songs.
Then it was the turn of a beautiful boy idol group. They sang very lyrically at the beginning. However, when they all took off and threw away their coats, revealing the vests they were wearing, the style of painting changed into a song and dance...
Various singers or groups took turns to play, and the singing continued to rippling in the living room.
Apart from watching TV, Seiji also used his mobile phone to surf the Internet and chat.
He made an appointment with Qianqiu and Meijia to go to visit New Year's shrine together tomorrow morning.
The night was getting dark.
Xiaoshi made soba noodles, and the three of them ate together by the kotatsu, sucking.
It was a while after eating the noodles, and it was almost twelve o'clock.
The TV screens take turns to display the places where the countdown to the new year takes place, capturing the local crowd happily preparing to welcome the new year.
Everyone has a smile on their faces, ready to bid farewell to the past year and hope that the new year will be better.
At this moment, Seiji sensed something, turned his head to look, and saw his younger sister staring at him.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing..." Kagura bowed her head slightly, "I just feel... like I'm dreaming."
"Well?"
"Meeting brother Seiji...staying here like this...is like a dream." She murmured softly.
Will this dream wake up after the New Year's bell rings
Will you suddenly open your eyes and find yourself living in the same room as before, still alone
All of this may be just a delusion...
A large hand appeared in view.
Looking up, I saw my brother-in-law smiling gently and stretching out his hand towards this side.
She blinked.
Raise your hand and place it slowly on the palm of the other person.
His hand closed and took hers.
"Having a righteous sister like you, I also feel like I'm dreaming." Seiji smiled, "But it's not a dream... This is the proof."
He shook his hand a little harder.
Soft, warm, and solid.
Kagura also held each other's hand.
Thick, warm, and down to earth.
It feels so clear.
The sudden uneasiness in her heart disappeared, and the girl smiled.
The two stared at each other... The atmosphere became a little ambiguous.
Snapped!
A sudden sound interrupted the atmosphere.
It's Xiao Lingyang.
With a dazed look on her face, her little head landed on the table and made a loud noise.
"Hoo meow..." He gave a cute yawn.
Seiji and Kagura: "..."
The two let go of their hands and took them back.
Seiji coughed dryly.
Kagurashi blushed slightly.
"Xiao Lingyang, do you want to go to bed first?" Seiji asked.
"Uh..." The little girl came to her senses when she heard the question.
She raised her head slowly, raised her hand and rubbed her eyes.
"Don't... people want to be together..."
"Then try harder."
"Um meow..."
Ling Yang patted herself on the face, and forcibly pulled herself together.
After a while, the countdown finally came.
"Ten, nine, eight..." The TV continuously switched screens, showing the scene of people all over Sakura Island counting down in unison.
"Six, five, four..." Seiji, Xiaoshi and Lingyang also counted down.
"Three! Two! One!!!" Counted to the end.
Boom... Suddenly, a dull sound was vaguely heard.
At the same time, I felt something invisible passing by rapidly.
The surroundings suddenly became dark!
It's... a power outage!
"elder brother… "
"So cold..."
"What's wrong?" Seiji immediately cast his spiritual vision to see through the darkness.
Seeing Xiao Lingyang's appearance was not right.
She hugged herself, trembling.
"Lingyang!?"
Seiji quickly got up and walked to the opposite side to check on the little girl's condition.
It turns out she has a fever!
How could it be like this all of a sudden
Seiji thought of the sound just now, and the strange feeling of something passing by him.
What just happened? Spell attack? Is it Mite Akatsuki
No... If Mite Akatsuki did it, it shouldn't be like this...
"It's cold... Brother Yuanye..." Ling Yang moaned.
Anyway, something has to be done.
Seiji immediately cast the "Level Healing Technique" on Lingyang.
But it didn't work.
This is no ordinary fever.
Could it be because of mysterious energy? He remembered Tian Haidai's high fever at that time.
Is the strange phenomenon just now related to mysterious energy? Seiji frowned.
"I have to take her to the hospital, right away." He made a decisive decision, then looked at Xiaoshi, "You can come together."
Kagura nodded and looked at Lingyang with a worried look on her face.
The two immediately went to put on the clothes they had gone out, and also put on the cotton padded clothes for Xiao Lingyang.
During the period, Seiji asked Xiaoshi if she had any strange feelings just now, and Xiaoshi said yes. She also heard the sound, and felt something passing by for a moment.
Two psychic users have the same feeling, which proves that this is not an illusion.
"Something must have happened just now. The power outage was most likely caused by it, as was Xiao Lingyang's fever." Seiji said.
Kagura nodded in agreement.
Was that some kind of spell? Who issued it? What is the purpose
Could it be another Baimonogatari ritual that succeeded by chance? or something like that? How big is the scope
Many questions...
After dressing Xiaolingyang, Seiji picked her up and walked out of the house with Xiaoshi.
It was cold outside, moonless, and dark.
Seiji looked at Kamihara's house, worried about Mika's condition, so he knocked on the door.
The door opened quickly.
"Seiji..."
"Meijia... as long as you're fine."
"What's wrong with Xiao Lingyang?" Mei Jia noticed that the little girl's condition was not right.
"She suddenly had a fever. I suspect it has something to do with mysterious energy... Did you feel anything just now?" Seiji whispered.
"I vaguely felt as if something swept across my body, and I heard a low sound." Mei Jia frowned slightly, "But Mom didn't feel anything..."
"It's not an illusion. Xiaoshi and I both heard and felt it. Something must have happened. It might be a spell or a ritual. The blackout and Xiao Lingyang's fever are probably caused by it." Seiji said seriously.
"I don't know who sent it, or where it came from... I'm going to take Xiao Lingyang to the hospital with Xiaoshi now. You have to be careful at home, because you don't know if there will be any problems. If something happens, call Call me."
"I can't make calls." Meijia frowned and raised her phone, "The signal is gone."
"What!?"
