Chapter 2: Reunion?

"why it's so dark, in this place?" she felt like endless darkness enveloping her, and the biting cold stimulated every inch of her skin. She felt like she was falling into an abyss and kept falling.

At this moment, time seemed to be infinitely stretched, and her thinking became slow. Kiana slowly closed her eyes "Am I still in a dream?"

"If this is really a dream, then it is a nightmare."

'I feel my body is slowly getting colder and my limbs are becoming weak.'

For some reason, Kiana kept recalling her life in her mind.

"Mei, Bronya, stinky dad, aunt, class leader, Himeko..."

"Captain..." Kiana's memory finally stopped on that sunny afternoon, and she remembered the figure with red hair who reached out his hand to her, "Captain, where are you now... I... We really miss you..."

'I don't know if it's an illusion... I seem to be back to that afternoon. The captain looked back at me in the bright sunshine, stretched out his hand towards me with a smile, and invited me to go to the amusement park to play together.'

"..."

Her consciousness gradually blurred, her body gradually sank, and she slowly closed her eyes "Maybe this is not a nightmare. It's really good to see you again... Captain... Even if it's in a dream..."

Kiana, who was about to lose consciousness, suddenly felt a pair of warm hands picking her up from behind. The warm temperature came from her back and her body began to float up.

Kiana felt like she had a very long dream. She dreamed that she was traveling through chaos, and then with a bang, it seemed as if she passed through a soft barrier. Although the barrier was soft, it was very tough and she could not get through it at all.

Just when she was completely out of strength, she felt a pair of large hands slowly lifting her up from behind.

Finally, it seemed to overlap with something...

"Wake up! Wake up!"

'Who is that? This voice is familiar... It's the Captain! It's the Captain calling me again!'

Kiana wanted to respond, but she felt as if her body was restrained and she couldn't move at all.

Especially the eyes seemed to be sealed and felt heavy. The body seemed not to be her own.

But the belief in her heart that she wants to see the person she wants to see the man that driven her to open her eyes.

The noises around seemed to become louder as if more and more people were gathering.

"I'm sorry if I offended you. I was just trying to save you."

'What is the captain going to do?' Hearing this, Kiana, who was originally trying to move on her own, suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart.

Then she felt two thick fingers forcibly prying open her mouth as if pulling out some disgusting strips, and then a pair of familiar big hands pressed on her chest.

"???"

"!!!"

Suddenly, as if realizing something, she suddenly gained strength in her body, and then... and then...

When she opened her eyes hard, she saw a familiar red-haired face approaching her quickly.

When the two lips touched each other, Kiana's already chaotic brain quickly shut down. The strong masculine scent was overwhelming, and the hot feeling made her feel at a loss.

'What the hell is going on? I was on the train just a moment ago, why did the captain suddenly appear here?'

'And suddenly... kiss...'

'I agreed with Mei and Bronya that after this final battle, we would marry the captain together... Is this considered cheating...'

Countless thoughts flashed through her mind in an instant. Kiana's CPU was still in a cooling state and could not process the thoughts. The moment her lips touched, her brain only took 0.01 seconds to start up and burn out.

It was just that this momentary wonderful feeling made this girl, who had experienced so much along the way, truly happy, and tears of emotion slowly rolled down the corners of her eyes.

'Although I don't know what the current situation is, nor do I know where we are now. Captain, it is really great to see you again.'

'But... why did the captain pinch my nose? I can hardly breathe

Then she felt as if a huge amount of secondhand air was rushing into her lungs through her mouth.

There was also a unique fishy smell of river water. This uncomfortable feeling made Kiana, who had just regained some consciousness, roll her eyes and feel extremely uncomfortable!

Here is some general knowledge for everyone:

cardiopulmonary resuscitation: First aid measures for patients with respiratory arrest

This is what we often call CPR.

CPR is a first aid method used when spontaneous breathing stops. Air is rhythmically introduced into the lungs by hand or mechanical devices, and then the elastic recoil of the chest and lung tissue is used to exhale the gas that has entered the lungs. This cycle is repeated to replace spontaneous breathing.

On-site first aid CPR can be performed by mouth-to-mouth method, or using a simple breathing bag.

Since a person will die if they lack oxygen for 4-6 minutes at normal temperature, they must breathe effectively every second to save their lives.

It is now widely used in classrooms of primary, secondary, and high schools and is a well-known first aid method.

Of course, this method has nothing to do with romance. The slow mouth-to-mouth in some Korean dramas and Japanese anime is a wrong example among all the wrong ones. People who do CPR like kissing have died long ago.

Under the strong impact of this second-hand fresh air with a moist feeling, Kiana's cardiopulmonary function recovered rapidly.

The captain didn't let go of her mouth until she felt like she was a balloon about to be blown up by the captain.

"Wai...wait..." Kiana felt as if she had gained energy and regained some strength, and spoke in a very weak voice.

But she barely opened her eyes, saw the captain, took a deep breath, and lowered her head to "infuse" her again.

"Cough cough cough" I have to say, the effect is significant. Kiana clearly feels that her body has become stronger.

Suddenly, she turned over and started to cough violently, and a large amount of dirty river water was coughed out of her lungs. Then, as her consciousness gradually regained, Kiana looked at the night scene in front of her, with a blank look on her face.

At the same time, she felt her body was weak and her confused brain was reflected in her eyes with complete confusion.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure in front of her, she felt an unprecedented sense of weakness all over her body.

In the end, all her words turned into just one sentence...

"Where am I?"
