Daybreak

Lumian easily understood Franca's meaning:

The Dream City itself is built on Zhou Mingrui's memories before "Transmigration," but none of the Dream Image that are close to Zhou Mingrui and relatively important come from before "Transmigration." They all originate from Zhou Mingrui's experiences after "Transmigration," except for Peng Deng and Zhang Yujia.

This is clearly problematic!

"We previously thought that Mr. The Fool was a resurrected, Great Ones did not belong to this era, uh... indeed, he does not belong to this era. Mr. The Fool is really honest..." Franca suddenly understood the true meaning of a certain sentence in Mr. The Fool's Honorific Name.

After adjusting her mindset, she continued, "Based on our previous understanding, it's perfectly reasonable that there were no Dream Image related to the identity of ' Zhou Mingrui.' As a once Great Ones, he should have been involved with Great Ones and fallen Ancient God. These were all restricted and couldn't truly get close to Zhou Mingrui. Weren't we still wondering who Peng Deng was and which one he corresponds to in reality? We didn't even consider that he was actually Zhou Mingrui's childhood friend."

"But if Zhou Mingrui, like me, is a ' Transmigrator,' and gradually becomes Great Ones, that would be truly remarkable—surpassing Deity with a mortal body and Ruler the Spirit World..."

At this point, Franca's emotional wounds were reopened, and wood chips were plunged into them once more.

She was thinking of how shocked, sad, Pain, and Despair a figure like Mr. The Fool was when he learned the truth Transmigration time travel. Even as Great Ones, he could not return to his Homeland, and after he Slumber, the events even created a strong psychological shadow.

If Mr. The Fool is like this, what about her, and what about them?

Lumian could guess what Franca was thinking and why she paused, because he had similar thoughts and the same emotions were rising Depths him.

After a moment of silence, Franca composed herself and continued, "If Zhou Mingrui is a ' Transmigrator ' and was Ordinary Person before, what about his parents, relatives, classmates, friends, and close online friends?"

Lumian gazed at the Frost Board covered with photos, sketches, and notes, and said thoughtfully, "In the Dream, Zhou Mingrui has parents, but they are not in Yangdu. They live in a hometown that only exists in descriptions. Zhou Mingrui hardly contacts them and always conveys his greetings through Zhou Benson. Moreover, the setting of the Dream's parents is clearly derived from Klein Moretti's parents."

Similarly, the real-life prototypes of the older brother Zhou Benson and the younger sister Zhou Shasha are Benson Moretti and Melissa Moretti, respectively, the older brother and younger sister of Klein Moretti.

"Among other relatives, friends, classmates, and online acquaintances, only Peng Deng and Zhang Yujia are truly Zhou Mingrui's childhood friends."

Zhang Yujia is Zhou Mingrui's and Peng Deng's classmate in Junior High School Senior High School school, and she is currently working in Yangdu.

She comes from a wealthy family and travels frequently. She is currently on a so-called Europe trip. In the memories of the Major Arcana, Zhang Yujia has never really appeared. If it weren't for the fact that she often sends postcards to Zhou Mingrui and Peng Deng and chats with them online from time to time, she could be treated as a background figure similar to Zhou Mingrui's parents.

Franca hummed in agreement.

"Now there are two questions:"

"First, why is Zhou Mingrui's true social connections missing? Did Mr. ' The Fool ' deliberately Concealment them, or did the Celestial Worthy intervene? If it's the former, why would Mr. ' The Fool ' Concealment? Is this the key point? If it's the latter, does this mean the Celestial Worthy is afraid of something?"

"Secondly, given that no other characters related to Zhou Mingrui have appeared in Dream City, the existence of Peng Deng and Zhang Yujia becomes even more suspicious. In addition, we previously saw Peng Deng's roommate, Grisha, appear in the Emergency Center, so I think it's necessary to shift the focus to Peng Deng."

Lumian put himself in Mr. The Fool's shoes and thought for a moment before saying, "If I were Mr. The Fool, and this Dream City were the battlefield where I fought against the Celestial Worthy Consciousness, then my subconscious wouldn't want my real parents, relatives, classmates, and friends to be involved, even if they were just false Dream Image, just my memories."

"Given that Zhou Mingrui and Klein Moretti's understanding has already merged with this logic, the Dream Image corresponding to Benson (https://m. hetushu. com. com) and Melissa shouldn't appear either," Franca joined the Storm session.

Lumian smiled:

Who says they were woven from Mr. The Fool's subconscious?

"What if the Celestial Worthy did this on purpose?"

"The Celestial Worthy Venerable knows about Mr. ' The Fool's' experiences after his ' Transmigration,' but has no way of investigating his interpersonal relationships before his ' Transmigration '?" Franca made a new guess based on Lumian's question. "Therefore, the Dream Image corresponding to characters like Benson, Melissa, and Danitz had to appear, but some were placed outside the Dream City, and some had only a very shallow relationship with Zhou Mingrui. This is a subconscious protection of these Dream Image, and an external result of the struggle between Mr. ' The Fool ' and the Celestial Worthy Venerable's consciousness?"

Lumian nodded:

"If the Celestial Worthy was indeed unclear about Mr. The Fool's interpersonal relationships before his ' Transmigration,' does that mean He hasn't yet eroded or Corruption Mr. The Fool's core consciousness?"

"Hmm." Franca suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "I understand why Shatas became Zhou Mingrui's roommate."

She stood up, walked to the area near the window, paced back and forth a few times, and said, "We previously suspected that the Elven Race were Transmigrator, but now it seems that they are more like Bloodline Descendants of the Western Continent who survived on the Southern and Northern Continent and the Five Seas."

"To Mr. ' The Fool,' this is a descendant of a fellow villager, so the relationship is very close and they are geographically close."

Similarly, the Intis Group where Zhou Mingrui works is owned by the "Transmigrator" Emperor Roselle, and the Boss of the company next door is another "Transmigrator" —the Successor of the Ancient Sun God. These Dream Image are all very close to Zhou Mingrui.

Franca became increasingly convinced that her interpretation of the symbolism was correct.

She shifted her thoughts and said, "Our ' Curly-Haired Baboon Research Society ' has checked the accounts internally. The time we ' Transmigration ' to the current world is 1352, which is seven years ago. And the information provided by the Major Arcana shows that Mr. The Fool also Slumber in 1352."

"Before Mr. ' The Fool ' entered slumber to confront the Celestial Worthy, did he release us all from our ' Cocoon '?"

"That should be the case." Lumian felt that Franca's reasoning was sound.

He stood up as well, and said thoughtfully, "Let Anthony handle the contact with Peng Deng; he can make more aggressive probes now."

"If we can figure out Peng Deng's true identity and the significance of his existence, perhaps we can find a way to weaken the Celestial Worthy and awaken Mr. ' The Fool '."

At this point, Lumian paused, her eyes narrowing slightly:

"If what we just discussed is largely Error, then Zhou Shasha's going to university in Yangdu probably has a strong symbolic meaning, which is not a very good symbolic meaning for Mr. ' The Fool '."

Logically speaking, Zhou Shasha should be outside the Dream City and not involved in this "battlefield".

Franca was startled:

When will Zhou Shasha arrive?

"Wednesday," Lumian replied in a low voice, "But it's Monday now."

Franca hissed:

"Before Zhou Shasha arrives in Yangdu, there must be substantial progress on both Peng Deng's and An Xiaotian's sides!"

Lumian nodded slightly:

"Um."

The two discussed the matter for a long time.

"You proactively left the Dream this morning and returned to reality to inquire about more detailed information That One the Ancient Sun God and the ' Aurora Order.' Since Grisha appeared at the arranged scene, and Anthony was frightened by the illusion after contacting Peng Deng and voluntarily left the Dream, I suspect that Peng Deng and his roommate are related to the Ancient Sun God. However, we lack sufficient information to accurately determine this. Also, don't forget to have Lady. ' Magician ' check your physical condition." Finally, Franca gave Lumian her final instructions.

Lumian smiled and said, "I'm only worried that the Major Arcana don't know enough, or that there's some information we can't access right now."

"After that, you'll move behind the scenes and switch places with Anthony. Let him do the probing; you don't need to show your face."

"Okay." After Franca answered, she finally broke free from her focused discussion.

She noticed that the area near the window had been lit up sometime during the day. Outside the glass, the morning Sunlight streamed in, tinged with gold, illuminating the entire sky and highlighting the green leaves of the trees.

Birds chirped and flew by, and occasionally, human voices could be heard, creating a soothing and relaxing atmosphere.

Daylight broke.

The Sun has risen.

Daylight has arrived.

Franca stared blankly at the morning scene, almost silently murmuring to herself, "So beautiful."

Sunlight streamed through the glass, falling on her and Lumian, as if Great Ones was gently soothing their souls.

After Lumian Xinhong Community and told Anthony about testing Peng Deng, Franca took the elevator to the Twenty-Third Floor and entered the apartment she and Jenna rented.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw that Jenna was already awake and busy getting ready.

"So early?" Franca blurted out.

"It's getting late, I need to do my Makeup properly. I need to walk around the company today, maybe I'll get noticed by some film crew," Dream Jenna said without turning her head.

Oh right, it's Monday, Jenna has to go to Hall Film Company... But she's in Dream Image right now, what if something goes wrong...? Franca couldn't help but worry.

Just then, Dream Jenna went into the bathroom, Rosanne walked out of the bedroom, still half asleep.

Upon seeing Luo Fu, she greeted her, "Are you alright?"

She assumed that Luo Fu and Lumian-na stayed overnight at her house to personally check if there were any remaining problems.

"Everything's back to normal for now," Franca said, half Soothing and half stating the facts.

She then told Rosanne:

"I'm resigning."

"Huh?" Rosanne was stunned.

Franca smiled gently:

"I have to move behind the scenes, because if I'm kicked out of the Dream now, I'll really die."

Rosanne suddenly remembered the conversation she had overheard between Luo Fu and Jenna last night, and she finally understood some of the things she hadn't been able to understand at the time.

She suddenly felt that she was no longer alone, and smiled back, saying, "I'm almost there too."

Without Dream, I will disappear.
