Unlimited World - 90% of the battle for productive jobs is ready

"Eh, this is..."

I learn to do it and feel careless, but I manage to open my eyelids.

I hear I'm being put to sleep somewhere right now.

Front...... I mean directly above is an unrecognizable place.

There was something like a medical device when I shifted my gaze to the side.

Apparently, this is definitely the hospital.

Well, I know where I am.

But why am I being put to sleep in a hospital?

My body is heavy when I do it, and more importantly, my right hand feels thin.

If you're finally going to say it, I don't see what's happening on the right.

... Is it even an eyelid in your right eye?

"... Mr. Tokui? Mr. Tsukuba, can you hear me?

"Yeah? Yeah, I hear you."

"Good. You've regained consciousness, haven't you? I'll get you a doctor right away, please wait."

I think he's probably a nurse, but as soon as he checked on me, he left the room.

He said he was going to call a doctor, so he probably would.

… It seems that there is no problem after the doctor and I arrive to check the situation.

I'll wait for the doctor to arrive while I manage to keep my awareness of wanting to sleep like this.

After the nurse left, a physician-like figure probably arrived in a few minutes.

... It should have been a few minutes, but I felt it for a very long time.

"You really seem to be awake. No, I'm really glad"

"... thanks for that one. By the way, it's hard to talk, and this mask, can you take it off?

"That's still hard.... Well, Mr. Dubu. Do you remember what happened to you?

"... that's what you don't know, right? Were you also in a car accident?

There are not so many things that go wrong with hospitals.

Possible possibilities are, like, being thrown into a car or something.

"... no, it's not a car accident. In a way, it would have been simple if it had been a car accident..."

"... Then why am I being put to sleep?

"You really don't seem to remember. Okay, I'll answer you."

The doctor looked at me correctly.

That look is serious everywhere.

"Mr. Tutsuki was attacked by a passerby. He was stabbed in several places and is currently being treated in a hospital."

... the moment I hear that answer, something in my head snaps.

"... yes, I try to protect the snow noise from the passing... The snow sounds! Did the snow sound okay!

I remember everything.

I went out to buy snow noises and presents, and along the way I ran into a passing case.

I saw a snow noise covering my child and was stabbed between the passageway and the snow noise.

After he stabbed me in the right arm, he stabbed me in the right hand and right eye, and then he stabbed me in the left leg, too.

So, uh...

"Please calm down. Mr. Snow Sound is safe. And, of course, the kid Mr. Snow Sound covered."

"... well. Well, for now, no."

I found the snow sound safe and calmed down a little.

... Sure, because if you should have fought back at the Passageway, but that didn't even make sense, you really can't laugh.

"More than Mr. Snow Sound's story, first of all, you're in the condition of Mr. Tokui. Firstly, a stab wound to your left foot, but this one has already finished treatment. With a little rehab, you'll be able to walk right back to normal. Higher loads like exercise will help if you avoid them for a while."

The left foot wound didn't seem that serious.

I'm glad I didn't have to live in a wheelchair or anything.

But the doctor keeps talking like it's hard to say.

"Next is the right arm wound...... this one was also affected by a wound that has been around for a long time and could not be fully repaired. I don't know how much you can do, but it's probably a critical line to whether or not you can get in the way of everyday life."

"… specifically, to what extent?

"Depending on the outcome of your rehab, in some cases you may not even be able to lift one large pet bottle"

... This one, that's pretty serious.

I'm saying it depends on rehab, but I hope I can recover that much, that kind of injury.

The right arm was originally irrelevant due to an ancient wound, and let's give up completely.

"And with your right eye, this one will also be completely blind. The eye was severely damaged and had to undergo removal surgery. … if you wish, you can transplant artificial eyeballs"

"... I guess that's a pass because it seems tedious. I don't suppose it's going to restore your eyesight, either?

"Yeah, well. You have to ask your specialist, but I'm talking about not completely restoring your eyesight. They implant artificial eyeballs in the orbits, and the images they see from them appear in the other eye."

Either way, it's going to be a big deal.

In short, it's tedious.

I guess it was on your face, the doctor tells you with a sinister face.

"Talk to your family about the story of your right eye and make a decision. Your family has been contacted that Mr. Tochi has regained consciousness. Anything else you want to ask me?

"... what's going on with the snow sound?

This is all I've ever suffered.

Something may have happened to the snow.

"Is that Mr. Snow Sound...... Can you confirm that with your family? It's hard to explain from my mouth, the doctor."

"... ok. I'll ask someone else."

"Best wishes. Now, if you need anything else, please press the button on the pillow. It's a nurse call, and the nurse will be here to check on you."

"Yes, thank you"

The doctor who finished his explanation left the room.

I tried to look at the door more, but I couldn't move it as my body thought, so I couldn't even let it go.

... It's hard to just stay awake and let's just sleep a little more.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

When I woke up feeling people's signs, Yaohua was sitting next to me.

"Oh, brother, it's finally happening. Are you okay? Anything hurt?

"Oh, especially not a problem. More than that, Yaohua, what about school?

"I'm leaving early. Well, it's just the afternoon classes, and it's no problem."

"I hope so.... So, you don't have any sympathy or anything?

"When I get permission to eat, I'll get you something.... If that's how it goes, it's going to be okay."

Yaohua's expression, which was slightly stiff, softens.

... I guess he was pretty worried.

"... by the way, brother. Do you know what day of the month it is?

"... of December... Isn't that the 23rd?

"I knew you didn't ask when today was. It's the 23rd of January. I've been asleep for over a month now."

... Were you so asleep?

Isn't that pretty bad?

"I think you just noticed the magnitude of things, brother"

"Right. I didn't know you were that sleepy."

Didn't this worry you in many ways?

"Uncle Mitsutaro or something, it was pretty obvious. I did first aid, but I was wondering if that was a bad idea."

"... well, Uncle Kotaro has come"

Uncle Kotaro is a police man.

If it's all that noise, do you sometimes rush?

"... so, brother. I need you to calm down and listen to me."

Yaohua sets his posture right and faces me.

That's a pretty serious look at the slightly lighter tone so far.

"... I'm talking about Snow Sound sister"

"What's wrong with the snow noise?

It is very rare for Yaohua to refer to snow sounds as "snow sounds sister".

Even though I'm usually a "snow sister".

"I think I remember Akiho, Snow Sound Sister"

"Nah...... is that true!?

"It's true. I don't know the details... Because your mother and Lu Dou said so, I'm pretty sure."

"... no way, you remembered me in the shock of being stabbed?

"What a way to get there...... It's just because my memory's back, I'm in shock, and Snow Sound is in the hospital, too. He said he was asleep for a long time, he was confused when he woke up, and sometimes he was causing symptoms like panic."

... I can't believe it's that serious.

You also know that your doctor can't tell you this.

I could panic, too.

"... So, is the snow sound okay?

"... I don't know. Because they don't give me much detail. Except for my parents, Lu Dou said he was sorry for the visit."

"Right. Thanks for letting me know, Yaohua"

"You're welcome.... Oh, visiting time, it's almost over, so you're already leaving today. Brother, do you want anything?

"I guess not for now. Don't take the trouble."

"It's tough that I have to turn my chores around on my own.... Bye, brother."

After Yaohua returned, the hospital room became quiet.

That's where I find myself alone.

"... I wish I could have dealt with it better"

Even though it had passed, if I had been able to deal with it without being stabbed, the symptoms of snow sounds would have changed.

... I figured if I had been stronger, I wouldn't have been.
