A long time passed, and Tesla still didn't come back.
During this period, the waiter entered the car and told Tesla that the situation had changed and that he and the "madman's" body would have to get off at the front platform.
Half an hour later, the steam train slowly stopped in front of the platform of a small town called "Wheatfield Town".
laugh--
After the vibration, the carriage calmed down. Lu Li looked out the window at the platform. The people on the platform carrying heavy luggage showed a confused and confused mood and moved away from the outside.
Several figures with beak masks appeared on the edge of the car window. They carried a simple stretcher covered with white cloth and walked out.
The weight of the stretcher and the outline of the white cloth silently tell that there is a body without warmth inside.
Tesla's figure appeared. He raised his hand to put on his wide-brimmed hat, grabbed his cane and hurriedly followed the beak masked figure and the corpse as they left the platform.
He didn't even have time to turn around and say goodbye to Lu Li behind the car window.
"Did you feel anything?" Lu Li asked without looking back.
Qiaoqiao, who was lying in front of another row of windows, turned around and saw that Lu Li was not talking to him.
"The strong atmosphere of the other world makes me feel like a wraith..." Anna whispered in her ears, and added: "I don't want you to get involved."
"Well, no."
Lu Li, who single-handedly completed the Shadow Town incident, needed to rest.
Tesla also knew this, so he didn't call Lu Li for help.
Or maybe it was because Lu Li couldn't help in this matter.
The steam train stayed at the Maitian Town platform for nearly 20 minutes, waiting for passengers to fully board the train. After the front of the train was replenished with coal, billowing black smoke came out of the chimney.
With the whistle sounding loudly, the train moved slowly.
A few minutes later, Wheatfield Town could no longer be seen outside the window, and the feeling of pressure on the back disappeared in the car that maintained a constant speed.
Qiao Qiao left her seat, held her seat and walked through the bumpy carriage, and sat down opposite Lu Li.
Lu Li raised his eyes and looked at her: "What are you going to do next?"
The hand that was moving the coffee cup stopped, and Qiaoqiao retracted his hand hesitantly and said: "I don't want to live up to my brother's expectations... so I'd better go back to the academy and continue studying."
Lu Li looked at Fran opposite.
"Uh... I don't know... Shadow Town is gone, I might be relocated to Rose Town or a nearby city." Fran's answer also contained confusion about the future.
This is not a bad thing, at least they are still confused.
"What do you want to say to us?" Qiao Qiao suddenly asked, Lu Li was not someone who cared about others.
It may sound a bit ambiguous, but to be more specific, it should be that Lu Li is not someone who shows concern for others.
"A relative of Anna wants to go to the Lennon Islands, which is relatively..." Lu Li, who suddenly remembered the crazy talk in the car next door, paused slightly and resumed his words: "...it's safe. If you want to leave here, you can go together."
"
These words seemed unconvincing in the traces left by the previous madman, but Qiaoqiao believed in Lu Li. She thought about it and shook her head apologetically: "It still doesn't work. I want to fulfill my brother's expectations."
She turned sideways and patted Fran who was sitting across the aisle: "If you have nowhere to go, you can follow me."
Jojo is several years younger than Fran, but she does show the temperament of a big sister now.
Fran forced an ugly smile.
"What about you, are you going to the Lennon Islands?" Qiao Qiao asked.
Lu Li didn't answer, he was thinking.
Ignoring the madman's ominous predictions, the Lennon Islands are a good place to escape danger, even though Luli's shelter is almost complete.
They have their own advantages and disadvantages.
In a dark jungle full of dangers, hiding in the shadows and facing the darkness and danger is a choice. Lighting a fire and keeping warm by the false warmth and safety of the fire is also a choice.
The former is an asylum site and the latter is the Lennon Islands.
"perhaps."
Lu Li did not give Qiao Qiao an accurate answer.
Qiaoqiao rolled her eyes, looking for something around Lu Li, and asked softly: "Sister Anna...is she okay?"
Indifferent words came from the void beside Lu Li: "I'm fine, thank you for your concern."
Qiaoqiao pursed her lips and nodded, feeling that the ghost lady was becoming indifferent.
There was a misunderstanding or something. She quickly left her seat, stopped bothering Lu Li and sat in the front row.
The slightly swaying carriage, soft seats and warm fireplace made people feel sleepy. Fran soon fell asleep on the table, and Lu Li also closed his eyes and took a nap.
Wow——
The carriage door was pushed open and steps entered the carriage.
Lu Li opened his eyes and looked at the waiter who was coming with an oil lamp. She told Lu Li that the steam train was about to pass through the tunnel. Although the electric lights would be on in the carriage at that time, a backup oil lamp needed to be lit just in case.
Lu Li took the oil lamp and asked if the steam train would pass through Himfast. The answer was no. The train would go along the coastline to Belfast. However, they could get off at Maple Leaf Town, which is about 10 kilometers away from Himfast.
Especially recently, it's only less than forty miles away.
Ten minutes after the waiter left, a dim electric light came on in the carriage.
Lu Li struck a match to light the oil lamp and placed it on the table to fix it.
A few minutes later, the car window suddenly fell into darkness, and Lu Li's face was reflected on the glass.
The carriage fell into an eerie silence at the same time. In stories, bad things usually happen at this time. However, when the light returned to the window and suddenly enlightened, what Qiaoqiao was worried about did not happen.
"Look...it's the sea."
Anna's whisper came to his ears, and Lu Li turned off the oil lamp and looked out the window again.
After passing through the low mountains, the leaden gray vast sea appeared in front of us.
The train has reached the north coast of the Allen Peninsula.
"We only stayed in Shadow Town for half a day...so many things happened."
Lu Li looked out the window, and the beautiful face of an illusory girl seemed to be reflected on the car window.
Anna murmured softly: "Lu Li... I don't want you to take any more risks."
"You want to go to the Lennon Islands?"
"Um."
"Then contact Daisy when we get back and see if she is willing to go to the Lennon Islands with us."
"good."
There was a touch of warmth in Anna's answer.
She continued to look at the sea, and at a certain moment, she saw a faint silhouette of a ship parallel to the train in the distance on the foggy sea.
It gradually approached the coastline, and the mottled hull and broken chimney brought a familiar feeling of déjà vu.
"That big boat is us in the swamp..." Anna whispered.
"Um."
After receiving the answer, Anna quietly looked at the big ship, which was swimming on the sea like a free and graceful whale.
More and more people on the train discovered the strange ship on the sea. They crowded near the windows, looking at the rusty cruise ship with curiosity and fear.
Soon, the exorcists who got the news on the train began to observe this cruise ship of unknown origin, but soon it gradually moved away from the coastline and disappeared into the mist in the distance.
