"What is this? It's amazing!"

“I was watching this area the whole time. Suddenly that person was sucked in, and then this light screen was left behind.”

"Look, the scene inside the light screen looks like it's from ten years ago."

"Really? It really shows 2006. So, that person just traveled through time to ten years ago?"

"Amazing!"

Some people started taking pictures, and others started leaving comments.

In no time, more and more people gathered on the entire commercial street.

About seven or eight minutes later, the police arrived, began to disperse the pedestrians, and set up a cordon.

Numerous photos and topics about time travel online have been completely deleted.

……

Inside the Hayase family's living room, a semi-transparent light screen also floated.

At this moment, in addition to Hayase Kyūe, Adagaki Aki and Koiwai Yoshino also gathered here.

"Aunt Juanjiang, please don't worry too much. Since it's a reward, they'll definitely be fine."

While observing the situation inside the light screen, Adagaki Aki said:

"Judging from the countdown in the upper right corner, they should be back in 24 hours."

"As far as I know, all the employees at Musashino who were involved in the production of CL traveled back ten years."

"And as they traveled through time, a light screen remained at each location, fixing the perspective on the person in question."

"The light screen left behind by Masamune-kun, like most light screens, has been taken over by the authorities, and everyone is prohibited from approaching it."

"This light screen left by Tomoyo Sakagami is focused on her, and it seems that she is also looking for other people."

"It's good that you're alright." Hayase Kyeon breathed a sigh of relief. "Tomoyo was suddenly sucked away by the light screen just now, which startled me. I was holding onto her arm tightly, but only she disappeared. I didn't expect that they had both gone back ten years."

Chapter 374 Returning to Ten Years Ago

"Where is this?"

Holding several bags full of snacks and drinks, Masamune stood on an unfamiliar street, lost in thought.

Judging from the signs posted by the shops next door, this place is indeed a scene from ten years ago.

Although I had a strong intuition from the beginning that I could only stay in this world for one day, or 24 hours.

But the problem is, 24 hours isn't a short time.

The money I have is obviously useless in this world.

As for mobile phones, they might still be able to make calls, but there's a possibility of duplicate numbers.

Most importantly, in the timeline of ten years ago, he didn't know a single person.

Even if she wanted to call her father and ask him to send a car to pick her up, she first had to find a way to make him believe that she was Masamune.

Furthermore, it's impossible to determine whether the person in this world is Makabe or Hayase.

After a moment's thought, Masamune closed his eyes and began to sense Mashiro's location, then quickly walked toward his target.

I walked through three streets in one go before stopping.

Mashiro and Rita were chatting on a bench by the street.

Noticing Masamune approaching quickly, Rita smiled and waved.

"here!"

"Did you two get together as soon as you arrived?" Masamune asked as he walked towards the two of them.

"Yeah, I said I was coming to find you, but I told Zhenbai it wasn't necessary. You're walking this way, and you're moving really fast. Hehe... It's amazing to have telepathy."

Rita took a bag from Masamune and smiled:

"It seems you were sucked in while you were shopping."

"As soon as the evaluation began, the teacher announced the end of get out of class. Fortunately, it was during break time. I felt a little better at the time and immediately hugged Mashiro tightly so that we didn't separate."

Where do we go next?

"Let me think about it," Masamune said thoughtfully. "24 hours isn't a short time. It would be best to ask for help by phone, but I'm not sure if my dad has changed his phone number."

"Moreover, it's very troublesome to explain, and you can easily be mistaken for a liar if you're not careful."

Just then, the roar of a motorcycle engine filled the air.

The group turned around and saw Tomoyo riding a motorcycle at high speed from a distance.

"Tomoyo, you look really cool! But since this is our first time here, where did you get your motorcycle?" Rita greeted her with a smile.

"I borrowed it from someone."

Tomoyo turned around and jumped out of the car, then explained again:

"If you've seen the animation, you should know what I looked like ten years ago."

"At that time, I hadn't started high school yet and spent my days on the streets. I had dealt with all the delinquents in town."

"A few thugs tried to provoke me, but I chased them away and left their motorcycles behind."

Isn't this highway robbery?

Rita mentally scoffed and asked again:

"Then how did you confirm that we were here?"

"I wasn't sure, so I rode my motorcycle and explored all the possible places. I thought it would take longer, but the distance was shorter than I expected."

"I see, hmm...? Wait a minute, is this Hikari-zaka Town?"

“That’s right. When I was looking for you along the street, I ran into a lot of people from other companies, and I told them to meet at Furukawa Bakery.”

As Tomoyo recounted her story, the three of them unconsciously turned their gaze toward Masamune.

Seeing this, Masamune slowly spoke:

"Tomoyo, how far is Furukawa Bakery from here?"

"Two streets. If you walk through the alley, it takes about seven or eight minutes."

"In that case, let's meet up over there first."

"No problem. But wait for me a moment, I'll go return the car."

"Where are you going to return the car?" Rita asked instinctively.

"Over there, the car owner is the son of that coffee shop owner. Just park the car in front of the shop and tell them to wait for me for three minutes."

Oh, it's someone I know.

Rita breathed a sigh of relief; then it wasn't robbery, but borrowing a car.

Well... borrowing by force is still borrowing, so there's nothing wrong with it.

After hesitating for a moment, Masamune also took out his phone and started dialing his father's number.

If it were just a few of you, you could stay at the Sakagami or Furukawa family's house for a day, but the CL production team has about three hundred people.

Even staying for just one night is not something an ordinary family can afford.

Ten years ago, the Hayase Group was not yet a multinational corporation, but it was still quite large and could easily entertain a few people.

There was only one problem: how to get my dad to trust me, since video calls weren't an option in 2006.

"Masamune, is your phone working?" Rita asked in surprise.

"Many apps won't work, but since there's a signal, the call function should be fine. Generally, all software is backward compatible."

"So, my phone works too?" Rita's eyes lit up.

"Don't rush, let me try first."

Fortunately, the call was successfully connected after ringing a few times.

Hearing the familiar voice on the other end of the phone, Masamune felt inexplicably moved.

"Dad, I'm Hayase Masamune from ten years in the future. Don't hang up, I have evidence."

[I don't know where you got my son's original name, but I have limited time, so I'll only listen to one sentence from you.]

"You have a scar on your butt, about the size of a red bean."

How did you know?

"I've thought of many ways to prove my identity. To be honest, I know a lot of things that only the two of us know."

The problem is, I have people around me. To avoid exposing more of your secrets and causing family discord, this is the least of my secrets.

What is your purpose?

"I'm at Furukawa Bakery in Hikari-zaka Town. I'd like you to send someone to pick me up and take me back to Tokyo. I have so much I want to discuss with you in person."

Moreover, I'm not the only one traveling through time; there are over 300 employees from my company involved, so accommodation alone is a huge problem.

The moment you see me, you'll know that what I said is true.

Even though I look different from ten years ago, I still have many photos on my phone of me taken with my mother. These are traces of the passage of time over the next ten years, enough to prove my identity.

[Please repeat the address again, and I'll personally bring people there.]

"Thank you. Please hurry, we can only stay in this time and space for 24 hours. The address is Furukawa Bakery in Hikari-zaka Town. The owner is Furukawa Akio, and the proprietress is Furukawa Sanae."

Okay, I got it.

Seeing Masamune hang up the phone, Mashiro asked softly:

Will Uncle come?

"Yes, Dad will be here within an hour, at his speed."

Masamune put down his phone, and his mood relaxed.

Even if my dad doesn't believe me, he'll believe me once he sees the photos on my phone.
