Chapter 1, alive

2010, February 9ri, 7pm.

He lay on the roof, stared at the peaceful stars, and sighed inexplicably.

"There are neither Space Monsters nor Bumpman, nor Transformers nor Battlestars, nor Saints and Heroic Spirits, nor Mithril Organization and Academy City... There are not even magical girls who make friends with guns. How boring is this?

world!"

So he took out his mobile phone and edited a text message.

[To me before time travel: Please be sure to travel to a world with magical girls!]

This is one of his quirks. Whenever he has something regrettable, he will use his mobile phone to send a text message to his "past self" and ask the other party to correct it.

Of course, it never worked.

That is inevitable. Although time travel is very surreal, the life itself of the time traveler is very realistic.

Like all Japanese high school students, he goes to school every day, does extracurricular activities, and goes home to rest... Even if the content of extracurricular activities is a little unconventional, it is not shocking.

Because, they are just ordinary people.

The slightly higher intelligence is the result of two lifetimes of experience; the slightly better physical strength is the result of training since childhood.

Other than that, it's just ordinary.

Yes, ordinary, he is also very ordinary, and this world is also very ordinary.

"What a peaceful world!" He sighed again, "Even if there is a girl with a childlike face, she is just a beautiful human girl with ordinary personality and talents... Why doesn't anything sad or scary happen?

?Why not have an apocalypse or two?"

If some people in the society we live in evaluate him, two conclusions can be drawn:

First: This guy is a nerd, and all he thinks about are weird terms all day long.

Second: This guy’s brain is very abnormal, he is paranoid and destructive!

Fortunately, this abnormal otaku lives in reality, and there are many people in reality who can control him!

For example, his sister.

Tomoe Mami, a fifteen-year-old female middle school student who has nothing to offer except her childish face.

"Brother, come down for dinner!"

What a boring sister. She doesn't know how to do a forty-five-degree roundhouse kick or a three-hit Urus attack. She always just makes this kind of mediocre shouting.

"What's wrong with being boring? Just having one person in the family who likes Taimei is enough!"

"We are street artists! We are different from delinquents! So different!" He tapped the bowl with his chopsticks in a diagonal shape, "Besides, shouldn't we have more respect for the woman who may become his sister-in-law?"

"Okay, okay, I was wrong, please forgive me."

He smiled as he rubbed his sister's blond hair, like twin ponytails, which was the only thing that showed off her personality.

What is there to argue with your sister?

Compared to the kind of sister who wakes up her brother with a palm fan in the middle of the night, Asami is really a well-behaved and good child!

The parents in this world are very kind and kind, and the younger sister is also very sensible and obedient. Although she regrets the ordinary time travel, Morinda actually likes this kind of peaceful life.

In the late spring of April, the grass grows long and warblers fly, and the cherry blossoms in Ueno bloom, brilliant as clouds and withered as tears of blood.

"Brother, are you really not going?" When he was about to get in the car, his sister tried to change his mind, "The cherry blossoms in the park are blooming beautifully!"

Cherry blossoms...Mr. Lu Xun once said that they are boring.

What is as beautiful as the setting sun, like the burning clouds, and like the drop of blood, what is the moment of glory that blooms and withers away...it's all nonsense!

"Your brother, I'm going to have a fight with a bunch of bastards nearby today. I don't have time to see any cherry blossoms!" He replied while checking the equipment, "Remember to bring me some cherry blossom buns. The cherry blossom buns at the snack shop at the entrance of the park are really good.

It’s a unique thing that makes people want to eat it again!”

"You're a foodie!" Dad laughed, "And you're so arrogant. It's just a group of kids competing in skateboarding. What kind of feud is that?"

Tsk, look down on people!

This is a modified power skateboard! It is also very dangerous if you accidentally fall!

Damn old man! May your car crash into a cherry blossom tree~

The match went well - one-sided of course.

Although he has not acquired any extraordinary powers, being reborn through time travel still has advantages - other children are still playing in the mud, while Morinda is already reading and exercising. This is not based on "study hard and make progress every day"

It's because children's games are too boring.

You can't expect a person who is almost 20 years old at heart to play a seemingly stupid game with ordinary children.

So he only read books and exercised.

So unknowingly, he actually became an outstanding young man who was both civil and military.

Relying on the fact that he had exercised his body for several years more than other high school students, he won the competition without much effort. As usual, he received the hatred of losers and the shining eyes of his girlfriend.

We went to a street band performance together, and received nothing but applause from passers-by. After we were exhausted, we sent her home. The musician couple said goodbye amidst a joke about "when are we going to have a grandson?" and replied.

Home.

"I'm really tired!" He patted his sore muscles from playing the drums for too long and opened the door. "I'm back! Where is the cherry blossom bun?"

No one answered.

How strange! We just went to the park, why haven't we come back yet? Did we encounter a traffic jam?

Regardless of it, go take a shower first!

...That’s so strange! Why haven’t you come back yet?

When dusk fell, I received a call from the hospital.

Car accident!

"I'm a crow's mouth!"

He didn't even have time to put on his coat or take any money, so he rushed out of the door barefoot, stopped a car, and threatened the driver fiercely to go to the hospital.

I don’t remember anything I said or did on the way. The only thing I remember is the text message sent on my phone:

[To me on April 4th: Stop my family from going to the park to enjoy the cherry blossoms!]

The text message is just a slim hope. The real hope lies in the flashing lights in the emergency room.

"Why is this happening!"

"elder brother……"

Thank God! At least my sister is fine!

The waiting time always passes slowly...

"I'm sorry, we have tried our best." The doctor announced the worst news without expression, "Please bear with me and accept the change."

Holding my crying sister in my arms, I realized that the weather was really cold!

——————

[To the fourteen-year-old me: Don’t meet Madoka Ayukawa, let alone pursue her, you can’t give her happiness.]

"Sorry." He said, "Let's break up."

Although she is a good girl, he has no time left to take care of his girlfriend.

I spend all my free time working part-time outside of school. Even so, my family's expenses are very tight.

My parents' income was not high to begin with, and the family had borrowed some loans, insurance, car accident compensation, etc., and had to keep them for the future.

There are two mouths to eat, and there are all kinds of necessary expenses...

I just wish I couldn't be divided into three heads and six arms. I have to work hard until late every day, and then lie down and fall asleep when I get home.

Under such circumstances, music, skateboarding, parties, entertainment... these are completely impossible!

Although Yuan is a good girl, and although her parents said they don't mind, Morinda cannot tolerate being a burden to her girlfriend!

Even though he is poor and miserable, he is still a man and a time traveler!

Seeing her turn around in tears, he felt like his heart was twisting in a knife.

...This is best, at least she will have a better tomorrow.

Soon after, news came that she was studying abroad.

"This is the best..." When his sister mentioned this matter carefully, he smiled calmly, "When you fall in love, you also need to pay attention to being well-matched. Cinderella and other things are just dreams. Asami, you are so old now, you should understand.

That’s the truth.”

My heart is really hurting, but my face is still smiling.

You have to laugh. If even he is crying, what should your sister do?
