Alice's Dream Club

This independent world is very quiet. Walking on the green grass, the rustling sound echoed clearly in the ears of the three of them.

Lynch had thought of asking Alice if she had any impression of this place, but he didn't ask this question when he finally arrived at the gate.

Because Alice has been busy catching II who was running around.

It may be the nature of the second generation. After seeing this kind of open and boundless place, he wanted to let go of himself, and use the way of running to feel the freedom that the metropolis does not have.

Alice now wants to tie the rope around the neck of the second king. Although it is not a good idea, at least it is much better than killing him on the spot and then rebirthing another one.

Even without entering the courtyard, the three of them could still see the garden-like scenery inside.

Between the main entrance of the courtyard and the gate of the manor is a living water fountain. The fountain has not dried up. The spring water flows from it to all directions through a series of pipe grooves. It seems to be nourishing the vegetation in the garden, and it seems to be purely a touch of decorative design.

The flowers, plants and trees have traces of careful pruning, and it is certain that these plants have not been pruned for a long time.

In other words, there are people living here and people maintaining the garden.

This situation alerted the three of them, and Second even hid himself behind Lynch.

"We didn't seem to knock on the door just now!"

Lynch slapped his nose so badly.

Look at this melon! When did you think that if you didn't knock on the door, would you break into the house qualitatively?

Too lazy to take care of the Second King's concerns, Lynch and Alice cautiously walked towards the living water fountain. No matter who lived here, Lynch didn't want to have unnecessary conflicts with them. Besides, in theory, this place either belonged to Alice or belonged to the fountain. Second, one of the two of them is the master here.

If here is a real club projection.

"you……"

"No," Alice knew what Lynch wanted to ask, "it doesn't look like a club projection."

After getting an accurate answer, Lynch gradually had a bad but good premonition in his heart.

——The one who lives here is... Death Song?

Death Song's hiding place has always been a mystery, and at the same time there is a Styx she forged with the power of chaos in the outside world.

If she wants to protect everything Lynch made according to Alice's obsession, then the possibility of her living here is relatively high.

Anyway, here's what to do now: knock on the door.

However, just when he made a decision, he heard the sound of the door opening. Although the sound was subtle, it was enough to penetrate the ears of the three of them through the sound of running water.

Second World subconsciously wanted to call Mommy, but fortunately she quickly covered her mouth.

Just when the three of them were about to formally meet each other, a figure that was enough to make the three of them stunned came out of the gate.

Alice.

She maintained Alice's original adult form, holding a pair of large scissors in her hand, and quietly walked aside as if she couldn't see the three of them, trimming off those redundant branches.

Lynch and II subconsciously looked at Alice herself, but she stared blankly in the other direction.

Following her line of sight, the expressions of the two of them were so startled that they almost fell down:

At the focus of the line of sight, an Alice wearing an apron sleeve was humming a little song and cleaning the outside window.

Subconsciously, Lynch turned his gaze back to the Alice who was pruning the flowerbed, and at this moment, he saw another Alice sweeping the ground beside her.

The two of them seemed to be unable to see each other, just doing their own things silently.

More and more Alice came into the eyes of the three of them, not only in the garden, but also in the window, the roof of the manor, and even the side of the fence outside the manor. They were busy with their own affairs and would not disturb others , the other Alice will not disturb each of them.

They all maintained this strange state, and the eyes of Lynch and the second fell on Alice unconsciously.

At this time, Alice's situation was already confused, but as the only near-god existence across two universes, she still discovered some situations.

"They... don't really exist, but they do exist."

What Alice said made Lynch and II start to be confused.

She walked quickly to the nearest Alice, and reached out to touch it. What she gave back to the three was the scene of the touched Alice being suddenly frightened.

That Alice then frowned and looked around, as if looking for someone to scare her.

In the end, she didn't find anyone there, so she had to mutter and resume her busy work.

Not only this Alice, Alice at the door made some distressed voices—"Did I forget to close the door again?"

There are many others in the same situation, but none of them can't find other Alice, or even the three of them.

They would respond to the tentative touch of the three, but they didn't notice the signs of the three at all.

This strange situation plunged the three of them into incomprehensible confusion, until the second slammed his fists, indicating that she had found the secret.

"I'm thinking, these Alices may be related to that chaotic space-time boundary!"

"Speak Chinese." Alice's mood was a little unstable.

"What we see now is every Alice that appeared at this point in time, but they exist on different timelines, so the dislocation of the timelines caused them to appear at the same time.

"Let's use the chestnuts on the scene as an example. The one who cleans the window may be Alice who cleans the window at this time on a certain day of the year, and the one cleaning the weeds next to her may be Alice at this time the next day. .”

"...The more you talk, the more confused I become..."

Lynch seemed to understand, but the more he pondered, the more he couldn't understand.

"It means that they are in different time and space, but they appear in front of us at this time point at the same time. All of them are Alice, but all Alice belong to the same time point on a one-way timeline. No matter how simple To put it bluntly, this is probably not a node where time and space intersect, my mother's exclusive version."

Lynch: "..."

Alice: "..."

Although the second's final supplementary explanation was so concise that it made people a little speechless, Lynch still understood, and turned his questioning gaze to Alice for verification.

"What the second emperor said may be right, because they maintain this kind of entanglement and separation of time, they exist neither here nor here."

Alice frowned and looked around.

"But I can't perceive the connection with the chaotic boundary for the time being, and I can't prove whether the existence of so many of me is really related to the complex folded time and space-although I think it is basically a solid hammer."

"No, I want to ask you if you have any impression of these manifested states?"

Lynch's question got Alice's... nod!

"Yes, that's why I said what the Second King said is basically correct," Alice pointed to herself who was throwing a coin by the fountain to make a wish, "I will throw a coin into the fountain every day, looking forward to your return , I was doing this the day before I sensed you."

Alice's response made Lynch frown.

"The club doesn't have a fountain."

"So... this may be the real residence, where the real club is," Alice pulled up the second king and Lynch, and walked slowly towards the open door, "Don't forget that the club in this world is mine. The epitome of power, and here is the castle that the Second King has been protecting."

Hearing this, he nodded clearly, and the Second King looked at Alice.

"Oh~ what's going on with that castle?"

"you ask me?"

"Don't ask who you are asking! That thing was there when I was conscious!"

"I don't know," Alice sighed. "Maybe you built it yourself when you were unconscious. Anyway, it's definitely not me. I'm actually quite lazy."

Lynch: "..."

II: "..."

In the end, the problem of building the castle fell on Lynch, but the mother and daughter were very calm and stopped thinking about it in an instant.

After all, Lynch doesn't even remember farts.

During the conversation, the three of them entered the manor. The interior decoration was very similar to the castle, even the photos in the frame were exactly the same.

For Alice, she had a subtle feeling of coming home.

It was this sense of wonder that made her more convinced that this was the real place to live, and there must be another reason for the existence of that castle.

"Second?"

"Okay, okay, I'll go back and check it out!" The Second King wrinkled his nose and glared at Lynch, "She has searched through the database in the castle, and she is basically sure that there is no relevant statement, but since Lynch has a request, she naturally does not would refuse."

Hiding the real residence so deep must have its arrangements and significance. Of course, it can be considered that Alice does not want to damage the memory carrier of herself and Lynch, but you must know that Lynch made all the arrangements. He firmly believes that There must be something hiding in here.

For example, about the use of the authority of II.

Another example is about all the functions of the Shadow Realm.

With an idea, Lynch decided to search for the three separately, but before that, he warned the Second King not to contact those Alices that existed in the past time and space.

Their performance proves that Alice in the past time and space can sense the existence of the "future". Lynch is not sure how time works in the current world. If excessive contact with the past leads to irreversible changes in the future, then Everything that exists will collapse completely due to the butterfly effect.

"I'm not stupid!"

This is the only response from the second generation.

The manor castle is very large, and the three of them divided the area.

Alice's exploration direction is the upper and outer layers, while II is looking for the middle and lower layers.

As for Lynch, he plans to go to the basement where it may exist.

Theoretically, according to his own habits, the most likely place to hide things is the study room, but after all, a place like the basement can hide even a goddess, so it cannot be ruled out that he also put some things in the basement.

Finding the entrance to the basement or the secret room is troublesome, but fortunately, Alice from different time and space can provide some help: the place that Alice will ignore as much as possible must be an important place that she forgot after being separated.

Soon, Lynch found the entrance to the basement.

a wall.
