N-A-A Chapter 365 Serena's sister, Hua Yi
Chapter 365 Serena's sister, Hua Yi
"Hello, I am Li Luochen from the Donghuang region," he said, getting straight to the point. "I've come to Miare City to deal with the nightmares you're experiencing here."
"Li Luochen..." Citron murmured, his eyes closed and brows slightly furrowed. "That name sounds so familiar..."
He doesn't even have the strength to open his eyes now.
My eyelids felt like they were being dragged down by something, and my head was spinning, as if I hadn't slept for three days and three nights.
In fact, they are quite similar.
Yulijia next to her was even worse off, slumped in her chair, her little head nodding, muttering something indistinctly. She was probably saying that the name sounded familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it before.
"Um......"
Seeing their state, Li Luochen decided not to bother them any longer and asked directly, "Would it be convenient for me to go up to the Mirror Tower and take a look?"
Hitron remained silent, only wearily making an "OK" gesture.
Then, he rummaged in his pocket for a few moments, pulled out a key card, and shakily handed it to Li Luochen.
This is clearly the elevator key card.
Li Luochen reached out and took it, looked at the card in his hand, and then looked at Citron, who was almost asleep.
He no longer had the energy to consider what Li Luochen was there for or what he was supposed to do.
Being able to sit here in the sun instead of collapsing into bed is already the limit.
Yulijia, who was next to her, was completely still, curled up in her chair, making even breathing sounds.
Li Luochen took the key card and walked towards the Prism Tower.
It wasn't until he got really close that he truly realized just how enormous the building was.
The tower pierces the sky, its top hidden in a thin layer of clouds, its end invisible.
Li Luochen looked up and couldn't count how many floors there were.
He silently compared them in his mind.
This size is probably similar to the Oriental Pearl Tower in Donghuang.
No wonder Darkrai chose to hide here.
At such a high altitude, with a wide view and easy to defend, it is indeed an ideal place to live.
Li Luochen withdrew his gaze, gripped the key card in his hand, and stepped into the tower.
"Huh...wait a minute, what are you doing here?"
Just as Li Luochen was about to step into the Prism Tower, a clear shout came from behind him.
Li Luochen paused and turned to look.
In his line of sight, a one-horned rhinoceros was trotting toward him, with a young girl sitting steadily on its back.
The one-horned rhinoceros's steps were solid and powerful, kicking up a little dust that stood out in the sunlight.
Li Luochen subconsciously sized up the other person.
The girl had long, slightly wavy, light brown hair, the ends of which swayed gently with the rhinoceros's steps.
She wore a black sleeveless top, a red mini pleated skirt, black sneakers, and black over-the-knee socks, looking both neat and playful.
She was wearing a red women's hat with a pair of wide-rimmed sunglasses on the brim. The frames were white and the lenses were black, and the sunglasses were perched on the hat as a signature accessory.
She had a rather cute appearance, but her face was somewhat serious, and her eyes were fixed on Li Luochen, as if she were scrutinizing a suspicious person.
The rhinoceros came to a steady stop beneath her. The girl looked down at Li Luochen and asked again, "I'm asking you, what are you doing here?"
Since arriving in Miare City, the girl has never had a good night's sleep.
Nightmares clung to her like a persistent ailment, haunting her night after night, leaving her feeling exhausted and anxious.
Not getting enough rest for too long has caused my personality to start to drift towards extremes.
Normally, she might have politely asked first, instead of stopping a stranger on her one-horned rhinoceros like this.
Li Luochen could understand.
Anyone would be in a bad mood after being tormented like that.
"I'm here to see Darkrai," he answered the girl's question crisply.
The girl was taken aback: "Darkrai?"
"Yes," Li Luochen nodded, "wasn't the problem in Miare City caused by Darkrai?"
"I see......"
The girl perked up a bit, the wariness in her eyes fading slightly, replaced by a look of realization. "If it's Darkrai, then he can certainly explain it..."
She paused, seemingly realizing that her attitude had been a bit too harsh, and a hint of apology appeared on her face.
"Sorry," the girl softened her tone slightly, "I'm Hua Yi from Asaka Town. I thought you were a terrorist trying to invade Miare City."
As she spoke, Hua Yi jumped off the back of the rhinoceros, dusted off non-existent dust from her skirt, and looked up at Li Luochen.
"Hua Yi..."
Li Luochen repeated the name.
He felt like he'd heard that name somewhere before.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing that he didn't speak, Hua Yi moved closer.
She rested one hand on her other arm, naturally supporting her chest, and tilted her head to look at Li Luochen: "Is there a problem with my name?"
Her tone was much gentler than before, but her eyes were still fixed on Li Luochen, as if she wanted to see right through him.
"It's nothing."
Li Luochen snapped out of his reverie and shook his head slightly. "I'm just a little curious, do you have a younger sister?"
Hua Yi's eyes lit up, and the fatigue on her face seemed to dissipate somewhat.
"Wow! I do have a younger sister," she said, leaning closer in surprise. "How did you know?"
Li Luochen smiled, pointed to the way she had just held her chest, and then pointed to the expression on her face.
"It's simple. It's because you have a unique aura that only 'older sisters' have. I have a friend who is also an older sister and has a younger brother. The feeling you two have is very similar."
That natural sense of care, that habitual way of speaking that comes out unintentionally.
These older sisters seem to have something in common.
At least, Li Luochen had indeed seen these things on Shi Xintong before.
The current Huayi also has a similar feel to it.
"Alright, I'm not going to chat with you anymore."
Li Luochen glanced at the key card in his hand, then looked up at the top of the Prism Tower. "I need to go see if Darkrai is really up there."
He was about to turn around as he spoke.
"Then I'll go with you?"
Hua Yi quickened her pace to catch up, with the one-horned rhinoceros beside her following closely behind.
"Don't let my appearance fool you, I'm actually quite capable. I've been tormented by nightmares lately, and I'm curious to see what the culprit looks like."
Upon hearing this, Li Luochen turned around and glanced at her.
Hua Yi looked up, her eyes no longer showing the wariness from before, but instead a sense of eager anticipation.
"That works too, there's strength in numbers."
