When you venture into a dreamland, although your consciousness is not in your body, your body's functions in the real world are still maintained normally.

But once the consciousness is gone forever, the body will be like a vegetative state.

Is it possible that the current uncle is just a soulless body?

Thinking of this, Kuroba Kaito's pupils trembled and he stared at the man in front of him in disbelief.

After a moment, he made a sound of collapse.

"Uncle!"

"Uncle Qin!"

"ah--!"

Kuroba Kaito shouted hysterically, not only feeling guilty for the death of someone he had adventured with, but also feeling reluctant to lose a friend.

Ever since he met Qin Zhibo, the relationship between the two was deeper than ordinary friends, like comrades-in-arms, and even someone who guided him along the way, no less than a father.

If it weren't for Qin Zhibo, he might not be able to understand the clues on the murals in his life.

If it weren't for Qin Zhibo, he wouldn't be able to enter the dreamland, let alone reach Kadasi.

This was the second important life mentor he met after Kuroba Toichi.

But now, such an important person has stayed in that cold world forever for his own journey to find his father.

This painful feeling of guilt almost made Kuroba Kaito unable to breathe.

"Uncle..."

"No matter what happens in the future, I will treat you like a father."

"I, Kuroba Kaito, swear in the name of a magician."

Facing the "remains" of his benefactor, Kuroba Kaito made a heavy vow.

Although this oath cannot save the benefactor's life, it can at least alleviate some of the guilt in his heart.

However, just when the atmosphere in the bedroom was extremely solemn, the man lying on the floor suddenly opened his eyes.

"This is what you said~"

"Don't regret it~"

This scared Kuroba Kaito half to death.

"ah?!"

"Uncle, how did you...?"

Kuroba Kaito was so frightened that he stammered. Why can a vegetative person still talk?

Qin Zhibo looked at Kuroba Kaito's almost frightened face. Although he found it a bit funny, he still felt warm in his heart after hearing those heartfelt words just now.

Of course, he will not really accept Kuroba Kaito as his godson, it is enough to have this intention.

"Okay, don't worry about me for now. Is your dad back?" Qin Zhibo asked.

"Hmm... that should be it."

Kuroba Kaito forgot to ask Kuroba Toichi exactly how he came back, but now that he has arrived at the City of Bright Moon, it should only be a matter of time before he returns to the real world.

As soon as Qin Zhibo heard that the matter was settled, he replied: "Then I will go to bed first. If you have anything to do, wait until I wake up to talk about it..."

After saying that, Qin Zhibo put the quilt back on his head.

Now he is tired and sleepy, and his willpower value is only less than 30.

When he broke through the sky above Kadath, Qin Zhibo felt that he was not riding a Shantak bird in a dream, but his real body.

At that moment, he seemed to have broken some kind of barrier between Kadath and the real world.

Because of this, the body becomes exhausted like never before.

If it weren't for Kuroba Kaito nagging in his ears, giving him a headache, and asking him to be his godfather, he wouldn't even bother to get up.

Seeing Qin Zhibo fall asleep again, the expression on Kuroba Kaito's face was stunned.

Immediately, he also showed a knowing smile.

Nothing is more important than people's safety...

At this time, a girl's voice sounded outside the window.

"Kaito!"

"Quick-fight!"

Kuroba Kaito quickly came to the window, opened the curtains, and saw Aoko Nakamori standing on the balcony on the second floor next door wearing pink pajamas.

And Nakamori Aoko felt a little relieved when she saw Kuroba Kaito showing his face.

"Aoko, what's going on?" Kuroba Kaito tried his best to stick his head out of the window so as not to disturb Qin Zhibo's rest.

"I heard you shouting something just now. Did something happen?"

It turns out that Kuroba Kaito shouted so loudly that even Nakamori Aoko next door heard it.

"No, it's nothing!"

Kuroba Kaito scratched his head and laughed, "It was just a nightmare... it will be fine when I wake up!"

"oh……"

Nakamori Aoko was so fooled, and asked: "Then after you wash up, come to my house for breakfast. My mother just has a rest today."

"Aunt Bizi is resting?"

Kuroba Kaito was a little surprised, because Aoko's mother was a very busy person and she might not be able to take a few days off in a month.

If it was normal time, I should really show up there.

But today is something special.

"It still doesn't work, I have something to do later..."

"Something happened? But today is a day off, what can happen?" Aoko Nakamori asked in confusion.

The corners of Kuroba Kaito's mouth raised slightly, and a trace of memory flashed in his eyes.

"I have an important person whom I haven't seen for a long time and we have an appointment to meet today..."

Kuroba Kaito retracted his head, leaving Nakamori Aoko to tilt her head in confusion.

An important person you haven’t seen for a long time?

Is Aunt Qianying back from abroad?

…

Kuroba Kaito came out of the bedroom and made a simple breakfast using the remaining food in the refrigerator.

After the meal, he called Terai Huangnosuke and told him roughly what happened last night.

After hearing that Kuroba Toichi was indeed alive, Terai Kinosuke began to burst into tears on the phone.

"Okay! Master!"

"I'll be there right away!"

After hanging up the phone, Kuroba Kaito sat on the sofa in the living room, still thinking with a slight frown on his face.

Although it is said that there is a way to return to the real world in the City of Bright Moon, how exactly does dad plan to come back?

After all, dad’s body no longer exists in the real world, so he can’t return in the form of a ghost, right?

"Um……"

Suddenly, Kuroba Kaito's eyes froze, and a possibility came to his mind.

He quickly ran back to his bedroom, gently turned the axis of the mural on the wall, and let "The Phantom Thief Under the Moon" appear in front of him.

But what shocked him was that the dashing "Phantom Thief" in the middle of the painting had disappeared!

At this time, a magnetic male voice sounded from behind Kuroba Kaito.
