Watching her wipe the tears from the corner of her eyes, she maintained a cold expression and courageously suggested ways for her to escape,

"That night, countless Sakuragis split from the main body of Hitomi...

"They fell with the meteor shower all over the place, occupying different rooms to form independent barriers...

"There must be numerous Sakuragis hidden in various rooms within Linmen. You just pass through these barriers one by one, seeking them out...

"Until you get close enough to the school or the South District, until... you find the President... that's the only way to stop all this..."

Upon hearing this, the petite Sakuragi pursed her lips and nodded heavily,

"Mm!"

"Alright, I'll open the door of my barrier for you now. I don't know which Sakuragi's room it will lead to, you..."

"Bang!!"

Before the words were finished, a wooden door beside them suddenly burst open revealing a small hole.

Through it, a fair hand slowly emerged.

That hand steadily tore apart the fractured hole, and then, the face of Sakuragi Hitomi appeared with a gentle smile.

"What are you two little friends chatting about here? Have you decided who will die first?"

Upon seeing this, the cold Sakuragi bit her lip and raised her arrow-pierced right hand to push the petite Sakuragi away,

"Run quickly!"

"Woo!!"

The petite Sakuragi's body was so light that with just a gentle push from the cold Sakuragi, she spun backward as if the earth was spiraling around her.

Behind her, the kaleidoscope whirlpool constituted by a wooden door opened automatically without wind, revealing another strange space.

Staring at the increasingly distant kaleidoscope space, the petite Sakuragi cried in anguish,

"Woo... woo woo... don't... woo woo..."

But in that narrowing view, she could only watch helplessly as the room door slowly closed...

And in the diminishing gap of the door, after the wooden door was violently burst open, the wielder of the longbow gradually approached the cold Sakuragi...

Sakuragi Hitomi.

"It seems that tonight you will die first... Well, those unbearable childhoods and memories that tormented Hitomi, those useless teachings from Sakuragi Yoshi, will all be erased tonight..."

She raised the longbow in her hand, nocked an arrow, aiming at the cold Sakuragi who couldn't stand up, and smiled as she spoke.

The cold Sakuragi just coldly raised her eyes to the Sakuragi lifting a bow in front of her, took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and said,

"If those past memories truly torment you, torment Hitomi, then go ahead and do it...

"Perfect Sakuragi."

The sight of the cold Sakuragi facing death calmly caused the Sakuragi holding the longbow to be slightly stunned.

Then, she smiled again, lightly explained,

"Hmm... not perfect now..."

"Whoosh!"

"No!!"

"Creak!!"

With her words, the bowstring vibrated intensely. The door separating the petite Sakuragi was also just closed, with the knob locked.

The crying petite Sakuragi didn't even have time to scream before crashing onto the floor.

"Woo..."

She whimpered on the floor for a while before finally looking up with tears in her eyes and started to examine her surroundings.

All around her, a warm glow paved a girl's bedroom.

Inside the bedroom, images of majestic sceneries from around the world were hung.

On the computer desk, there was a piece of primitive wood from the Amazon Jungle...

On the bedside cabinet, there was a classical Dragon Country Jade Ruyi...

On the floor beside her, there was what seemed to be a telescope used by Dutch sailors during the age of exploration...

At the very center of the bedroom was a giant film poster.

On it appeared to be a replica of "Titanic," except the "Rose" originally with arms wide open on the deck was replaced by President Yan Huan...

And behind Yan Huan, holding her, was someone dressed in a smart black suit...

Sakuragi?!

The petite Sakuragi blankly stared at the movie poster, then heard a creaking sound from behind her.

Startled, she turned around and saw a Sakuragi wearing a crooked red samurai helmet, holding a short samurai sword only a few inches long, curiously observing her,

"Wow, you're so small! Which Sakuragi are you? You seem very cute!"

"You..."

The Sakuragi before her blinked, patted her chest, and introduced herself,

"Sorry, let me introduce myself...

"I! Am an explorer dedicated to adventure and vowing to sweetly unite with the President for life! I will walk every inch of the earth and discover every treasure!

"I am the most adventurous and bravest of all Sakuragis!"

The petite Sakuragi stared blankly at the Sakuragi standing before her, raising the samurai sword and wiping her nose softly saying,

"You... Are you the Brave Sakuragi?"

"Oh no, I am the Reckless Sakuragi."

"..."

"Never mind that, friend! Why are you here? Inside my barrier located in Hawaii?"

"Ha... Hawaii?"

Mentioning this, the petite Sakuragi felt like she wanted to cry.

But she held it in, bravely wiped her eyes, then lifted her gaze to the Reckless Sakuragi in front of her, and explained,

"Hitomi, the main body, hid herself. She created a more superior, flawless Perfect Sakuragi to live in her stead.

"Therefore, to eliminate Hitomi's flaws, the Perfect Sakuragi is now trying to kill off all the other Sakuragis...

"Once killed by her, the part of Hitomi we represent will completely disappear!

"Right now, the Sakuragis who know the truth are all hiding in their barriers, afraid to come out, won't open their doors casually, just waiting for Perfect Sakuragi to invade one by one and kill them all..."

Upon hearing this, the Reckless Sakuragi was stunned, but then showed an excited expression,

"So, now we..."

"So, now we must find the President for help!"

"Find... the President?"

The Reckless Sakuragi swallowed hard, her heart beating faster.

Who knows what kind of heroic epic was constructing in her mind.

But the petite Sakuragi didn't understand her excitement, only tightly clenched her fist and continued,

"All Sakuragis like the President, so all Sakuragis would open the barrier door for the President, and the Perfect Sakuragi would absolutely never harm the President...

"Only the President could locate the Perfect Sakuragi's barrier and open the door to that barrier...

"Hitomi, likely, has hidden herself within Perfect Sakuragi's barrier!"
