Chapter 175, Section 174: The Heisei Three's Daily Life Without Agul (Second Update)

"Reiko said the same thing to me yesterday, but I really heard it. The ocean was giving me a warning, as if it was more than just a dream."

"Can't you hear me in my dream?"

Fujimiya stood up, closed his eyes, and faced the rolling ocean. The feeling of being connected became even more pronounced.

"Warning?"

I dreamt that Fujimiya didn't seem to be faking it, so I tried closing my eyes and sensing it together, and then opened my eyes again after a moment.

"There's nothing there at all, just the sound of waves and birdsong, Fujimiya, are you—"

My face showed a hint of helplessness; how could I take a dream seriously?

"I dreamt that monsters suddenly appeared in my dreams, and it felt so real, even though we've known each other for so long. You know I basically don't watch Ultraman or anything like that. Tell me why I dreamt about monsters, and it felt so real."

If I remember correctly, you used to believe in this a lot, right?

Why is it that now you don't believe it anymore?

Fujimiya also opened his eyes, looking somewhat disappointed. He had originally thought that I could understand that dream.

Now it seems like I was overthinking it.

"Fujimiya, we've all grown up, we're not little kids anymore."

Ultraman is just a fantasy tokusatsu series. We can't even research an anti-gravity system, so how could I possibly continue to take something like the Land of Ultra seriously?

The reason I no longer believe it is not just because of this.

We should all recognize ourselves; I'm just an ordinary person with no real abilities.

Fujimiya, you're much better than me. I hope you keep up the good work and develop the anti-gravity system. I have to go back to work at the museum now. Goodbye.

I was a little excited at the beginning of the dream, but I gradually calmed down later.

It was just a dream. There's no need to argue with Fujimiya. Let's hurry back, or Atsuko will think something happened between him and Fujimiya.

As I dreamt of leaving quickly, Fujimiya stood there, gazing at my departing figure, and suddenly called out to stop me.

"My dream—the anti-gravity system isn't just my dream, have you forgotten that too?"

My dream paused slightly, but I didn't reply, and soon continued on my way.

He doesn't seem to deserve dreams right now.

"Damn it!"

Fujimiya sat down somewhat dejectedly, her thoughts uncomprehending.

Who should I talk to next, those friends from my dream?

Forget it, just like in my dream, we're all struggling to make a living. I'll tell Secretary-General Sawai when I meet him tomorrow.

I've heard that something unusual has happened recently.

Camilla drove him to the seaside park, where Jiang Yu sat calmly in the passenger seat, looking out at the scenery.

Hokuto Seiji's female co-star, Hokuto Nanami, failed to get a promotion and returned to the bakery ahead of schedule.

Jiang Yu finished another early shift; to be precise, he doesn't need to go starting tomorrow.

According to Hokuto Seiji himself, he is too old to do the kind of heavy work that required him to make bread all night yesterday.

He would probably be quite happy if he were young, as he was a poor boy who was short of money.

Camilla's habit of buying up entire storefronts was still too alarming for Hokuto Seiji; he couldn't afford to mess with her.

"How was it? The scenery at this seaside park is pretty good today, isn't it? There's even an Ultraman statue in there."

-

Camilla asked Jiang Yu while driving, her face beaming with smiles.

This was a place she specifically chose; it's by the sea and related to Ultraman, so Jiang Yu definitely couldn't refuse.

"It's really nice. As for the bronze statue, is the owner here also an Ultraman fan?"

Jiang Yu was slightly surprised. Rich people also believe in light?

"I guess so, but not as crazy as you. They just made a bronze statue."

Camilla slowly stopped the car and explained, making Jiang Yu's lips twitch.

It's truly incomprehensible how these wealthy people want more than just a bronze statue.

Do you really want the Hipporito aliens to give you a giant Ultraman figure, one-to-one scale?

As he parked, a black sedan sped past, and through the window, Jiang Yu seemed to see a somewhat familiar face.

If I'm not mistaken, it's Hiroya Fujimiya?

Jiang Yu got out of the car, stared at the departing car for a while, and then quickly shook his head, no longer caring.

In Super 8, the director clearly didn't intend to include Agul, and Hiroya Fujimiya seemed to only appear as a supporting character.

As everyone knows, it's become commonplace for the Heisei Three to not bring Agul along.

Despite being deeply involved in the Gaia storyline, it's always subconsciously overlooked.

Agul and Fujimiya, what a tragic story.

Since none of the others show any signs of awakening, it's even less likely that Fujimiya Hiroshi will do so.

Upon arriving at the pre-booked location, Camilla smiled and handed a pair of sunglasses to Jiang Yu.

"Here, put it on."

"Seriously, what's the use of this thing?"

Although Jiang Yu complained, he still obediently put on the sunglasses and put them on the bridge of his nose.

When you need someone's help, you have no choice but to bow your head.

Actually, the sunlight wasn't even that bright, and I don't know why Camilla made that request.

"You don't understand, do you? My mom used to bring me here often when I was little."

I don't know why I've been afraid of sunlight since I was little; I'm always afraid of it being too bright.

My mom always prepares sunglasses for me so I won't feel uncomfortable.

Camilla lay on the recliner, stretching, wearing sunglasses as well, looking quite relaxed.

"Your mother went a bit overboard. She could have just told you to close your eyes and go to sleep. That would have saved you the trouble of wearing sunglasses."

Jiang Yu yawned and complained that sunbathing in the afternoon really made him sleepy; he even felt like he was going to pass out.

Camilla didn't respond. Jiang Yu turned his head, only to find himself being stared at with a death stare. Camilla felt like she was looking at an idiot.

"Hey, why are you staring at me like that?"

"How dare you say that? Are you stupid? Coming to the beach and not looking at the scenery but just sleeping? Who would do something like that?"

"I!"

Jiang Yu pointed to himself; if he didn't need to be with Camilla, he would have passed out by now.

"You! You really are an idiot!"

Camilla grumbled, wondering how she could have fallen for such a thing.

"Birds of a feather flock together. If you've chosen me, just think about how good I can be. Don't attack me, okay?"

Jiang Yu said dismissively that he no longer cared about his face.

"You idiot—tell me the truth, I don't really understand myself either."

Camilla suddenly lost her interest in being angry and lay back down.

Since her mother left, it seems like she hasn't confided in anyone for a long time.

"Sometimes I hate the sunlight, but wearing sunglasses allows me to comfortably enjoy the scenery."

But actually, sometimes I long for the moment when I can look directly into the sunlight without sunglasses.

Jiang Yu, do you understand?

When Camilla looked up, she found that Jiang Yu was already unconscious on another recliner, snoring softly and occasionally letting out a few sleepy noises.

This guy, honestly, he's out having fun and he's sleeping.

Camilla grumbled inwardly, but she had already taken the blanket and covered Jiang Yu with it, afraid that he would catch a cold.

Camilla's smile suddenly froze when she heard Jiang Yu's dream clearly.

"Lucia, this person is definitely a girl, she has experiences I don't know about!"

Camilla looked down, took out her phone, edited a message, and sent it:

Riko, please help me find out about a girl named Lucia in Yokohama who might have some connection with Jiang Yu.

Lizi: Got it!

When Jiang Yu woke up, he saw Camilla with a cold expression and scratched his head.

He really didn't want to; he just fell asleep for no reason. What did Camilla say again?

"Camilla—"

"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and change your clothes for the banquet."

"Why are you suddenly so irritable?"
