Less Than a Foresight Dream

 

　That is probably the road ...... near the school.

　It was the main street close to a residential area, a sidewalk with solid guardrails, but I can't remember exactly what it was.

 

　However, an incident occurred in such a place.

 

　A boy and a girl were arguing on the sidewalk when the boy, in a fit of rage, pushed the woman into the roadway with all his might.

　The man's face turned blue as he thought, "I've done it," but the next moment, the situation became much worse.

　A large truck was approaching the girl who had been pushed and thrown over the guardrail.

　Of course, the truck was just driving on the road behind the guardrail and there was no traffic light on the road ...... The truck had no time to brake when the girl suddenly appeared and ...... the girl flew up to the sky like a ball.

　Without even a scream, the girl hits the ground and ...... her blood puddles widen in a massive bleed that is hard to tell where it is coming from.

 

"U... Aa........."

 

　The girl whose eyes are unfocused and the light in her eyes is disappearing is wearing a kimono, and her cherry blossom hair ornament, which came off as a result of being hit, is dyed bright red.

 

 

 

 

 

"Uoh !?"

 

　I jumped up at that moment.

　Instantly I looked at the clock and saw that it was now around 03:00 midnight ...... It seems that I was quite tired today and went straight to sleep after dinner.

　And without turning off the lights......

　I think I slept without lucid dreaming for a long time tonight ...... I'm sure Amane will complain about it tomorrow, but for today, I'll take it.

　Glancing out the window, I see that the lights in Amane's room are turned off properly ...... I'm sure she's having a good dream today with her fluffy, so it'll be fine.

 

"Well ...... Maybe what I just saw was a "foresight dream"...... "

 

　I looked at the book beside me and muttered unintentionally.

　I had been taking care of this book so many times that I was starting to get a vague idea of what the dream felt like.

　It's really only vaguely, but the dream I just had resembles the "foresight dream" that saved Amane's life twice before.

　It just ...... I simply can't be sure it's a premonition......

　In the previous foresight dream that saved Amane from a crisis, I feel that I could have seen something a little more concrete, but this time the whole dream was terribly hazy.

　It is obvious that the person implied by that outfit and, above all, the "cherry blossom hair ornament" is "Chi-chan" the person Konoha-chan was looking for, whom she talked about extensively throughout the day yesterday.

　However, as for the victim "Chi-chan" the image other than the kimono and hair ornament was more vague than anything else and could not be identified.

　It is as if there is a mosaic when it comes to identifying people.

　...... If it was a foresight dream, to begin with, I don't understand the situation of a "male student" arguing with a girl in a kimono on such an ordinary sidewalk in the first place.

 

"......Is there any special rule regarding foresight dream?"

 

　I remember what I had skimmed over regarding "foresight dream" and opened the "Dream Book" to make sure this time.

　......I think I should do something about the "read the manual when confused" kind of habit in games ......I've been thinking about it more and more lately ......I haven't been able to improve on it, but I'm still working on it.　

 

 

The Composition of Foresight Dream

 

　Foresight Dream is composed based on the user's memories and information. Therefore, it is difficult to know everything accurately in a foresight dream.

　When unfamiliar information is composed, it is reconstructed based on the closest information that can be known.

 

 

　...... E~tto, in other words? This "Foresight Dream (?)" is casting with the information I don't know, which is why it's such a somewhat strange casting ......?

　I don't know who "Chi-chan" is now, so I cast the old "Chi-chan" that I can imagine .......

　I recall that when I had a previous Foresight Dream, I was unable to identify the culprit, and by using a "past dream," which is a kind of dream in which you see the past except for the present, I was able to find the existence of a female student named Shindo-san, the culprit.

　It seems that because she was a stranger, the "Foresight Dream" meant that she could not construct the dream.

　So that means that with the information I don't know, I have to make inferences from it?

 

"I-It's complicated ........."

"Chi-chan is going to have a car accident! When and where is it!?"

 

　Konoha-chan was sitting on Amane's shoulder waiting for me in front of the house the following morning on the way to school, ready to follow along, but when I immediately told her about the foresight dream I had last night, she rushed to me and jumped at me.

　Reflexively caught her, but the fox still flapping her arms and legs in desperation ...... oh no, she's so cute.

　Even though the details are important but I can't help but love it ...... I put on a serious face and look Konoha-chan in the eye as I talk to her.

 

"Calm down. If what I saw last night was a foresight dream, I won't know anything until you tell me the details..."

"Au ............ I'm sorry......"

 

　When I slowly reminded her of this, she realized that she had been too hasty and lowered her ears and tail.

　Kuh ...... Even this gesture...... I didn't do this to get this...... This little fox must literally be a god...... she is precious!!

　With her whole face saying, "Hurry up and give me back my fluffy!!" I put Konoha-chan on Amane's shoulder again, who was appealing to me, and told her in detail about the content of yesterday's dream.

　At first, Konoha-chan seemed shocked, but as she listened, she became convinced that what I had seen was a "foresight dream directly related to her."

 

"But ...... I'm sure the dream I had was a "foresight dream related to Konoha-chan," but how could I have had that dream in the first place?"

 

　That part was a little questionable for me.

　The outline of the foresight dream is basically that it is limited to "myself or someone close to me" and automatically informs me in a dream when a crisis is imminent.

　No matter how cute the little fox Konoha-chan is, as I said, I don't think I'm open-minded enough to recognize her as someone close to me after yesterday......

　However, Konoha-chan easily answered my question, which could have been considered somewhat rude.

 

"That's probably because Amane-san ...... onee-chan and I made a temporary contract."

"A contract with me ...... You mean the one you were talking about "Kamioroshi" yesterday?"

 

　Konoha-chan nodded to Amane's question.

 

"Yes, I am now able to leave the mountain by borrowing from onee-chan's spiritual power. In other words, I am now identified the same as onee-chan. That's why the information was a little hazy, but Yumeji-san was informed of onee-chan's crisis."

"Because he recognized it was me...?"

"Yes! If he could not recognize from his deepest consciousness that someone was close to him, someone important to protect, it was impossible to interrupt Yumeji-san's precognitive dream."

 

　......Hmm? This little fox ...... seems to have said something strange just now?

　No, well, let's not think about it too much right now ...... because I have a feeling that if I think about it carelessly now, we'll end up in a terrible situation.

　Because something God Inari mother and daughter said yesterday about the relationship they referred to us as is nearly playing back...... Let's keep talking.......

 

"B-But ...... even if that premonition was the "Chi-chan" that Konoha-chan is looking for, isn't that too little information?"

 

　Maybe Amane was thinking something similar, and begins to speak to cover up her slight embarrassment.

 

"Even if you say it's a main street near the school, a sidewalk with guardrails...... it's not clear where it is ...... Most importantly, the important thing is that I don't know who "Chi-chan" is......"

"Uu ...... No clue?"

"No ...... It's not a dead end, is it?"

 

　She was almost depressed, but when I said so, she was surprised with her eyes wide open.

 

"R-Really!?"

"Did you know who Chi-chan was? Because you said, you didn't recognize her face......"

"Aa, that's right ...... In that premonition dream, I couldn't see the face of "Chi-chan"...... Right ...... If the face of the victim......"

"Eh? That means ......"

"Aa ...... Foresight dream is automatically constructed based on the memories and information I know. Because I didn't know her, the "Chi-chan" in question was vague, with only a silhouette of her in a kimono like that ...... But I could clearly see the culprit's face."

 

　Yes ...... I saw him clearly.

　In the world of "Foresight Dream" that can only be understood if the information is solid... In other words.

 

"I know that guy ...... And for what it's worth, he's related to that thing again......"
