Chapter 15: Late Night Boarding
The sporadic street lamps still emitted a cold glow, and only occasionally two or three cars sped past on the road, and a taxi whipped through the street with its bright headlights. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
It is rare for the driver to pull the guests at night, and there are no vehicles on the street at this moment, and under the urging of the passengers, the speed is constantly increased, and the street is swept quickly.
Rieko raised her wrist and looked at her watch, the hands were pointing in the direction of eleven twenty, which made her a little anxious, and she might not be able to catch up.
"Please hurry, the ship is coming!"
The driver saw her look in a hurry through the rearview mirror in the car, although he didn't know what the lady was anxious about, but he was also wise not to ask, just nodded calmly, and at the same time increased the speed again.
The buildings on both sides of the street were rapidly moving backwards towards the back of the car, and the neon lights flashed so quickly that it seemed a little blurry, and finally the car stopped near a park.
The driver took a breath, he hadn't driven so fast in a long time, but before he could speak, Rieko had already reached over with her hand, hurriedly threw down the coin, and hurriedly ran out of the car.
"Guests... Your stuff..."
Before the driver finished speaking, he saw that the man had already run in one direction quickly, and on the back seat, the trench coat and satchel were left on it.
"Da Da Da..."
The sound of hurried footsteps came, and Rieko hurriedly ran to the established location, where there was already a group of people waiting. They are of different ages, genders, and occupations, ranging from security guards to white-collar workers, and in a wide variety of occupations that are difficult to define.
But they are the same, they are all full of disappointment in this oppressive world, and they decide to leave, even if no one knows what they will encounter on the ship, and no one knows what the ending will be.
But with a little hope, they are willing to give it a try.
"Whew..."
Rieko gasped and looked up at the night sky, which was still dark, trying to search for traces of the "ship", but in the night sky, there was nothing unusual.
"It should be here..."
Just a little confused, but the next moment, Rieko couldn't help but pause, a golden light that seemed to be coming from the sky sprinkled from the sky, and a warm feeling came, she seemed to see her hometown and the utopia of her dreams in an instant!
Her flustered heart couldn't help but calm down, a beautiful smile appeared on her face, and the ice in her heart seemed to melt at this moment, this golden light was like the sun, warm, it was like a...
The feeling of being in a mother's arms...
Warm and peaceful, attached and warm.
The golden light became stronger and stronger, and she couldn't help but look up, in the rich golden light above, she seemed to see the seaside under the western sunset, the sun was warm, and the sea breeze had a slight fishy smell, but it was very comfortable.
This is the warmth she has never felt in this world, the smile on the corner of her mouth can't help but bloom more and more, she hasn't smiled for too long, she has forgotten how to smile.
Maybe... The boat can really take us to utopia!
Silently, when the light dissipated, the shore returned to the cold night, the cold wind blew, bringing the sound of "woo...", the empty shore, only the street lamps were shining lonely...
In the middle of this cold night, there is a group of people who yearn for utopia, and have left this cold, oppressive, and unbearable world.
Above the black and white picture, there seems to be a light shining down from above, a group of people are waiting for something, some are standing, some are squatting, some are looking up, some are looking down, some are looking down. Among them, there are middle-aged office workers, young students, uniformed policemen, and full-time housewives, and their images are fixed at this moment.
"On Saturday the 13th, at three o'clock in the morning, there was an incident of human abduction by an unidentified flying object like QuatreMutilation at night!"
"22 victims, Agent JIN, please start the mission with Agent K!"
Early in the morning, just as Rieko left the shore on the "boat", JIN, dressed in a black trench coat, quietly raised her head and no longer looked at the data pictures displayed in the smart computer.
He saw the figure of the woman on top of the many pictures.
She wore her eyes, still looking very intellectual, her beautiful face looked up slightly, looking at the sky, her eyes were full of anticipation and soft eyes, and she still had a warm smile on her face, as if she had finally waited for a partner who had been gone for a long time.
It also seems to be... Finally waiting for the ship to leave this world and go to the legendary utopia...
JIN KNEW WHAT TO SAY, HIS HEART WAS A LITTLE RESPONSIBLE, AND HIS WORDS STILL LINGERED IN HIS EARS:
"Can you believe it? Isn't the world the real world? ”
"I believe... However, I would not dare to make such a choice on my own. ”
AT THAT TIME, JIN GAVE AN ENCOURAGING REPLY, SAYING:
"I can't make my own judgment, but if you have a decision, you can do it yourself!"
But I didn't expect that she really did it, and JIN couldn't evaluate her behavior, because no one knew where the "ship" would take her, but JIN admired her courage after all.
It is hard to imagine that such a weak-looking woman would be willing to take risks and take the "ship" of the unknown, just for the sake of a utopia that may not exist.
JIN doesn't know if he has the courage to do so, maybe because he doesn't know anything, he doesn't even know who he is, because he is in a fog, so he is more hesitant and afraid of these uncertain choices and journeys.
If... If that really is the "ship" to utopia ...
I would also be willing to go, leave this completely foggy world, find my true self, and usher in a new life.
"The QuatreMutilation event was a miraculous event that occurred in the United States in the 60s of the 20th century, when many livestock were slaughtered by dead aliens overnight." K's voice rang out, dressed in a white trench coat and clasping his hands to his chest, explaining an overview of the events of QuatreMutilation.
"However, with the development of the times, this group of aliens has become more and more unscrupulous."
After a pause, he spoke, as he strolled along the shore;
"This is already the third kidnapping..."
"The first is in the eastern region, the second is 13 people, and in the inland sea reclamation area, without exception, it happened in the middle of the night."
K WALKED UP TO JIN, LOOKED AT THE SHORE, THE COLD WIND MADE HIM FEEL A LITTLE CHILLY, AND COULDN'T HELP BUT WRAP HIS COAT AND SAID:
"There was a few months between the first kidnapping and the second, but only a week between the second kidnapping and the third."
"It's... This group of cosmic people is really becoming more and more unscrupulous! ”
