"Please inform Princess Isabel that Mr. Fisher wants to have a phone call with her."
Not long after, Aragina seemed to have passed through the current hustle and bustle of Saint-Nali and arrived somewhere; supposedly this place should be the Golden Palace that had collapsed in half due to the war.
"yes."
The voice that came was in Nali language, which was quite strong, so it probably wouldn’t take too long.
In the spirit world at this moment, Fisher held the walkie-talkie in his hand and turned his back to the luminous screen behind him. He could only rely on the conversation mixed with "rustling" sounds in the walkie-talkie to deduce what the situation in Nali was at this moment.
Alagina seemed to be talking to the remaining soldiers in Nali who maintained order and helped Isabel. Since he left, Fisher knew that Nali had a lot of messes for Isabel, a fledgling young man, to deal with, and he might not come so soon.
, but the waiting time was still longer than Fisher thought.
He tapped his fingers on the iron table next to him, as if he was timing or recording his own fast and slow heartbeat.
It wasn't until a while passed that Fisher heard Alagina's voice walking forward again.
What came next was Isabel's voice,
"Captain Alagina! I'm here. I'm sorry. I have a lot of things to worry about. The soldiers didn't find me for a while, so I kept you waiting for a long time."
At this moment, Isabel's voice sounded a little tired, but she still brought unrestrained vitality when she greeted Alagina. Of course Alagina didn't care, or she was somewhat uninterested in coming here.
"It's okay, here it is."
"Is this Mr. Fisher's walkie-talkie? Is it still working? Mr. Fisher?"
"I am here."
"Ah, Teacher Fisher, I will take you in first, Captain, and you too"
"You go with the walkie-talkie. Fisher will talk to you first and I won't go in."
"Ah, I see. Thank you, Captain."
Isabel was slightly startled, but soon she held the walkie-talkie and moved in a direction that Fisher could not tell. It was Isabel who held the walkie-talkie instead, and Fisher felt that she was walking much slower than Alagina, but she seemed to be farther away from this place.
The place where we should be on the phone is getting closer and closer.
In fact, Fisher's meaning is so obvious. Maybe Isabel and Alagina both know who the person Fisher wants to call at this moment.
"Mr. Fisher, it's great that you're okay. The captain said that the teacher is in the spiritual world now. He must be far away from here, right? I don't quite understand this either."
As she walked, Isabel couldn't help but lower her head and look at the walkie-talkie in her arms.
"Yes, it's far away. Where's Nali, is everything okay over there?"
"Well, how should I put it? I can only say that it's not that bad, right?"
Isabel obviously wanted to say something, but she stopped before she could even finish her name, which made Fisher couldn't help but ask,
"What's wrong?"
Isabel shook her head and said with a wry smile,
"Is it"
"Mr. Fisher wants to talk to her sister, right?"
"Um."
""
"Tap tap tap"
Fisher clearly felt that Isabel had not said anything, but only the sound of footsteps came from the intercom.
"We're here, Mr. Fisher"
"good."
Immediately afterwards, the footsteps gradually stopped, as if they had stopped somewhere before and did not move again for a long time.
Fisher's heartbeat quickened little by little, and his body leaning on the iron table behind him became stiffer.
He began to subconsciously pace along the corners in front of the screen, but his eyes and ears were focused on the walkie-talkie in his hand that made vague sounds from time to time. He might be thinking about rhetoric, or he might want to apologize to her, or
perhaps
Or maybe, he didn't know what he wanted to say, and was just eagerly and nervously waiting for that person's voice.
But after all, he only has a cardinal walkie-talkie in his hand, and the distance between them at this moment also spans the spiritual world, and the gap between reality and reality should be very far away.
""
However, while waiting like this, the other side of the intercom suddenly became silent.
Fisher, who was still thinking, seemed to realize something was wrong, and listened quietly to the voice coming from the intercom.
"call out"
It seemed that he heard a little sound of Isabel rubbing her sleeves, but there was no sound of footsteps, as if she was hesitant after seeing something while standing there.
"Isabelle?"
After a moment of silence, Fisher's voice rang out from the walkie-talkie like a bell. Isabel was startled, and even her voice started to vibrate.
"Ah!? Teacher Fisher, oh, I'm sorry, Teacher Fisher, sister, she hasn't woken up yet. I can't talk to you for the time being, or when she wakes up later, I'll go find Alagina immediately.
Captain, how's it going?"
""
Fisher held the walkie-talkie in his hand, and his pacing suddenly stopped in place.
He blinked and stared at the walkie-talkie in his hand. After a moment of silence, he whispered,
"good."
"Sorry, Mr. Fisher."
Isabel's voice also sounded a little low, but the reason couldn't be seen or heard on the surface.
"It's okay, but I have to leave here later and may not be able to receive real news at any time. Just tell her that I called her. If it doesn't work, you can wait until I come back."
"Well, when my sister wakes up, I will tell her about this. After all, she has eyes before and now, and she will always stay here in the Golden Palace."
"Okay, take good care of your sister and let her have a good rest until I come back. I will come to see her when I come back and heal her eyes. Don't worry."
"Really? Thank you, Teacher Fisher!"
"It's okay. Just return this walkie-talkie to Alagina. I'll tell him something and we'll start again."
"By the way, Mr. Fisher"
"buzz"
The intercom suddenly vibrated, and Isabel was stuck in her mouth. She didn't understand the cardinal's creation, but she learned from the intercom that no longer made any sound that Teacher Fisher had hung up the intercom.
She held the walkie-talkie in her hand, and in her slightly opened mouth, the unfinished word "teacher" turned into nothingness and flowed out of her mouth.
At this moment, she was standing in the back courtyard of the Golden Palace, which had not completely collapsed.
The originally peaceful manor where birds were singing and flowers were fragrant has now become a mess due to the previous battles. Among the broken bricks and tiles, there are still a few dilapidated houses that can barely be lived in. The entire front yard has been transformed by Rafael's dragon spear.
ruins.
In contrast, the residential areas of civilians in Saint-Nali were not destroyed at all and did not experience huge losses of life.
Isabel's golden eyes twitched slightly. She slowly raised her head and saw a dim and dilapidated house in front of her, with the bedrooms revealed due to cracked walls.
In the dark room, which makes people wonder why the candles are not lit, with the last setting sun, in Isabel's eyes, she is lying on her side on the bed with her back to Isabel, and her head is vaguely covered with thick bandages.
Blonde figure.
At this moment, in front of the dilapidated house, several loyal guards were standing at the door. One of them was the soldier who just sent a message to Isabel, saying that Alagina was here.
And they were holding a flag in their hands, which read,
"No answer"
Isabel, who had just arrived with a phone call, became a little hesitant when she saw this flag. She knew that her sister had already woken up and was lying alone on the bed in the shabby house.
She must have woken up not long ago, because Isabel could still vaguely see the wet ink on the flag.
Isabel's expression was complicated. She held the walkie-talkie in her hand and spoke into the room,
"Sister, he has died."
""
It was still quiet inside, but Isabel looked at the darkness and said softly,
"Sister, you were so desperate for death that you were sucked into the crack by that law. Don't say I'm just a human being. Just looking at the crack made my legs weak. Others who were more powerful didn't dare to get close, for fear of being swallowed by that thing.
Teacher Fisher rushed in to rescue you alone, he almost left you there.
"Teacher Fisher doesn't hate you, he knows he did something wrong, so he hates himself."
The room was still quiet, and Isabel could not help but purse her lips slightly when she saw this.
She couldn't help but raise her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes, and then opened her mouth again,
"I'm leaving. Sister, you have a good rest."
After saying that, she was about to turn around and leave.
Just because her eyes couldn't see through the darkness, when the sunset fell to the ground, only Elizabeth herself knew the scene inside the house.
Therefore, Isabel could not see that Isabel, who was lying on her side on the bed in the shabby house, got up with difficulty at this moment, only to reveal the large dried blood stains on her thick bandage.
Elizabeth had no eyes, so she couldn't see the direction Isabel was leaving, so she could only listen.
Just listen for a long time, but you can't help but hear your own voice.
