Chapter 8: Exploring this New world

  After one day living here, I am having an urge to explore this city to know more about this place. This city is advanced but people seem to not like to build an infrastructure, alternatively they like small houses, and the area is covered with a whole map of tiny houses.

  Going across a guy on the street, I asked him why this place doesn’t have any apartments just like [__] but he did not know about the place so he was giving me a confusing face. After a short time of not responding, He told me that people don’t like to live together in the same place, people like to live in private and don’t like to get bothered by other houses’ noises. He was just trying to skip it, I could tell.

  I forgot to tell you, the houses have an invisible fence, the fence would cover the house and make a shape of half circle. I think this would block sounds and intruders from breaking in. However, some houses just use that for several personal reasons, most houses are not using that. Maybe there are no thieves, they also open their doors, and there would be no intruders interested in.

  This place seems to be the safest. With people’s perspective here, using resources to encourage defense is a waste since no one does not have “it”, meaning there are no thieves. I always wonder if there are any powerful characters, whether something like the government exists here or not. I asked one random person on the street again for details, she told me that she didn't understand what I was saying, and she was minding about the new concept “Government”,

  Welp, did I say something that could actually spread to everyone? That’s ok, not knowing the definition won’t do anything. But I should carefully spit out what I say later because anything is possible.

  So, after a while of asking around, I concluded that this place is care-free, people are cold and very responsible for what they do. There are no such things that are considered crimes, nothing, like it was already obvious.

  Everything here…is like a setup for creating a perfectionist. My heart was beating like a drum getting hit by two sticks from the drummer, telling this is it! This is what I wanted.

  “Hi.”

  A girl with flowering hair, blooming because of the way she was dancing towards me. She was the first person who actively came up to me since the day I happened to be here.

  She looks more special than others. The clothes she was wearing are a little baggy, distancing from her actual body count. The white shirt has middle buttons, the cross collar duplicates from right to left. She wears a jeans covering down to the surface, completely hiding her heels leaving high-heel shoes revealed. Though she must be someone who is very stylish and different from social expectations. Someone like this is very admirable, it makes me question why I feel so pleasure seeing that.

  Her eyes are heterochromia, the right shows different shiny stars running around in her iris, it is like she could see the whole universe. Her hair is yellow, separating from the black hair normies because I haven’t met any people with different colored hair except black, and people mostly have black hair here. Thus I and she are the only rare ones, and she who has a heresy.

  When she was approaching me close enough,

  “Hi.”

  “Are you the person on the news? White hair, ordinary.”

  The girl was jubilant of my appearance. I don't know why but I continue to trust her anyway because people here are trustable. I just want to give it a try.

  “Ye, I am. I don’t know how I was like that. Something must be responsible for this because I…”

  “No need to tell, I already knew more than that. I want to tell you something unbelievable, first, do you want to hear it?”

  “Uh? What’s so unbelievable? You know something about me?”

  This is a chance to unveil the fog inside my head. However, I think it will not be full, a small percent of it would be discovered indeed.

  “Yup, I know something about you. Because my right eye would allow me to do so.”

  “Ok? Can you tell?”

  “Ah…what a hasty guy you are.”

  The atmosphere seemed to get heavier, was it because of her aura? She said that I am a hasty guy, I did not even bother her by repeating sentences or something else yet? Welp, I think I’ve met a grumpy person.

  “You must be the one coming from another world, and that world is something very relatable to this place. I could see your memories and the depth of them too. The fog must have hidden crucial information but I cannot erase them, it’s alright, I might just know it later. Ok, from what I see that you hate the world, you were fighting someone there…”

  “Fighting someone? What do you mean?”

  “…”

  “Excuse me? Whom did I fight against?”

  “Um, you yourself is very interesting I could see.”

  “…” I couldn’t know what she was talking about until she has to say it out.

  “Come with me, let’s have a chat at my house and I’ll tell you everything, including your questions about the origin of this place.”

  Her ability read me like a book…I felt attacked by the way, it’s just that now I cannot think of dirty things or tactics while I am around this girl, she would expose them.

  Still, I need to know more about this place. If I knew where I was coming from, I would get the reason why I was brought here in the first place. My body is fully developed, and I’m sure that I am around sixteen or seventeen years old.

  I could sense that this girl, this event will foreshadow the future that I might face. I don’t know why I think that but it could be the [_] I like from the previous world. This is transferring to another world type, surely.
