Lin Qiye looked around, his eyes full of confusion.
He didn't know what happened.
His memory still lingers on the moment of confrontation with the white-haired old man outside the border of Daxia, in the fog.
He remembered that the man put his hand on the handle of the knife, and then his whole body seemed to be frozen, and his body and mind stagnated at the same time. When he woke up, he was already here...
Where is this?
What about the rest?
His eyes swept around. It was an ordinary gravel beach. Except for a little girl dressed strangely and with a scared face, there was no one else around.
The other team members are not around here.
In the end, Lin Qiye's eyes fell on the little girl with a frightened face.
He suddenly felt that the little girl's dress seemed familiar. He felt that he had seen it in some book... It seemed like a course mentioned in the training camp.
The little girl looked at Lin Qiye warily for a moment, then asked tentatively:
"君は死んでいないのか?" ("So you're not dead?")
"?"
Lin Qiye fell into a deep confusion after hearing her murmured words...
He couldn't understand.
But at this moment, he finally remembered where he had seen these things.
During the training camp, there was a special course that talked about the cultural differences of various countries in the world before the fog came. This was used to introduce the myths and legends of many different regions. He knew what countries there were in the world before the fog fell, and also knew their general cultural differences.
, but these are written knowledge and I have not seen them with my own eyes, so I can’t remember them at the moment.
But now, he can basically determine where this place is.
The cherry blossoms, the kimono, the language...is this Japan?
Lin Qiye froze on the spot for a long time and looked around again.
The low gravel shoal is flanked by towering cliffs. On the cliff is a narrow road, and the hum of vehicles passing by can be vaguely heard on the road. The sky in the distance is blue, and the waves are rolling from the end of the field of vision.
Coming, white and pure, the white clouds in the sky are leisurely passing by, as if in a painting...
How can this be?!
Hasn’t Japan been engulfed in fog a long time ago?
Lin Qiye clearly remembered that during the training camp, the instructor had already said that Japan was now completely shrouded in fog and there were no survivors at all. The former [Blue Rain] team also brought back the Yamata no Orochi after they entered the fog.
news of Japan's demise.
This should have been a dead city shrouded in mist, the entrance to Takamagahara, the home of the Japanese gods.
But now, in front of his eyes, there is no part of the dead city.
He looked around, and even if he saw the end of the sea, he could not find any trace of the fog.
It was as if the fog had completely disappeared from the planet.
Lin Qiye stood there like a sculpture, looking at the sea in the distance in a daze.
Yurina blinked her eyes and saw that Lin Qiye did not answer his question, so she spoke again:
"I'm talking to you, why are you still in a daze?" ("I'm talking to you, why are you still in a daze?")
Lin Qiye came back to his senses and looked at the girl wearing a black cherry blossom kimono. After hesitating for a moment, he showed a polite smile.
He didn't know what the other party was talking about, or what was going on in this country... It was better not to reveal his identity as an outsider for now.
Seeing Lin Qiye smiling at her inexplicably, Yurina's face became even weirder and she continued to ask in Japanese:
"What generation are you from? Where do you live? What is your number?"
Lin Qiye smiled and said nothing.
Yurina Fox asked: "You... are not mute, are you? Or deaf?"
Lin Qiye smiled even brighter.
It seems that he is deaf.
Yurina settled her thoughts.
If he was mute, even if he couldn't speak, he should be able to make gestures or show his number directly, but he didn't react at all to what he said...
There's something wrong with his ears!
Thinking of this, Yurina looked at Lin Qiye with a bit of pity.
Lin Qiye didn't know what the little girl was thinking, but he always felt that something was wrong with her expression, but he seemed to be unable to do anything but continue to laugh.
Yurina stretched out her hand and was about to sign something, when the piercing sound of police sirens quickly came from the road above.
The police car stopped by the road, and then the voices of two men sounded from above.
"This should be where the girl made the phone call. Let's look separately to see if she is still there."
"It's been so long. If you want to commit suicide, it must be over by now, right?"
"Suicide is a felony, and she also chose to commit suicide on the beach, breaking the sea ban, which is an additional crime. If she is still alive, we will directly detain her and imprison her for life. If she is already dead, we will also imprison her.
The corpse recovery..."
"I know, I'll go look below first."
Hearing this conversation, Yurina's face suddenly turned ugly, and a look of anxiety appeared in her eyes.
Of course she knew that suicide was a serious crime, but she still chose to call the police station in order to tell the police about her death in order to achieve her own purpose... But she didn't expect that now that the police were here, she would
Not dead yet.
Now that she is on the shoal, she will definitely not be able to commit suicide by jumping into the sea. Even if she wants to plunge into the sea and drown, the two policemen will quickly pick her up. When she is imprisoned, she will really have no chance of survival.
, I can no longer wish for death.
Yurina's brain was working rapidly and she quickly made a choice. She put her body in the blind spot under the cliff and moved to the other side along the coastline.
At this moment, she seemed to have thought of something, turned back and took Lin Qiye's arm, and said to him solemnly:
"Follow me next and don't make a sound!"
Although she didn't know who Lin Qiye was, since he was also floating in the sea, it was likely that he had attempted suicide just like her. Even if he had not committed suicide, he had broken the sea ban by entering the sea privately, and he would not be able to escape jail.
Unfortunately, he was deaf and couldn't hear that the two policemen had begun to search this place. If he was left alone here, he would only end up being arrested.
Anyway, she was running away alone, and running away with him was just a piece of cake.
Lin Qiye couldn't understand what Yurina was talking about, but it seemed like she had no bad intentions and just nodded and followed her.
Yurina took Lin Qiye and walked along the coastline for a while. They came to a steep slope and climbed up quickly with bare feet.
When she quickly climbed to the other end of the road, she realized that Lin Qiye might not be able to climb such a steep slope as easily as she did. Just as she was about to look back, a figure in black appeared as gently as a ghost.
