CHAPTER XXXV. TS's Reply
On the bloody sea as red as the abyss, several or even dozens of small wooden boats squeezed in our direction, blocking the hazy corner of the opposite shore in the distance and me, but strangely, there was no one on the boat, but there was a voice—
I sat in my own boat and could hardly see what was in the belly of the wooden boats that had crowded in, and as the ships approached one by one, I looked my head through them, and slowly, as the agitation came into my eardrums, and the sound grew louder and louder, a pile of white flowers appeared in my sight. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
— a bunch of letters.
It's hard to understand, but it's a pile of letters, piled up in the middle of the ship's belly, like a hill, and the restless sound of the impermanence comes from the letters.
"What's that..."
Sakura got up in a panic, looking at the sounds that sounded terrifying with "click, click, click" with doubts and horrors, she leaned forward slightly to find out, but unexpectedly, her heels were unstable, and a tragic scene happened-
I was wrong when I thought that the belly of the boat was full of letters, it was just a false appearance that covered it, and when the cherry trees tragically fell into the water, countless hands reached out from the middle of the wooden boats... But this was not the most terrifying scene for me, those hands hung down from the edge of the boat like wicker into the water, and the blood-red water froze like a freeze in an instant, and even the wooden boat carrying us was frozen in it, and it was not enough to blink an eye, and there was no time for me to understand the sudden situation, the cherry trees had become creatures frozen in ice.
"Sakura—"
I called her to smash the ice with the oars, there was no other way but to do so, at that moment I didn't have time to react, and the leg injury had not healed, I even had problems with self-preservation, let alone the ability to save people, I could only watch the cherry tree be frozen in an instant, no matter how hard I tried to smash it, it was still in vain, for the impregnable and indestructible surface, the oar was at most a fragile stick.
- How so?
Sakura stared and struggled underneath, her eyes and cheeks bulging out, it was a near-suffocation struggle, in the thick of blood, her expression became more and more hideous, the kind of staring before death, was the fear of being pushed to despair-
Because, the moment the cherry tree fell into the water, Kihara next to me was really indifferent. If he grabbed the cherry tree at that time, he could have turned the situation around...
"Kihara..."
"Hurry up and save her, Kihara... What happened to you? ”
I tugged at Kihara's hand, and he just watched it all silently until Sakura's pupils turned dead in a blood-red patch.
"How can you..."
- How can you watch your classmates die and not save them?
I threw the oar down and shouted angrily, but I hung my head very weakly.
"Rurishi, when you know what everything is, you won't blame me for standing by."
"What do you mean?"
"So far, you must have had a lot of speculations about me, and you don't even understand my actions, but when you walk over, you will understand, and now you can't come to any conclusions by guessing, Rurihi, I said, there are some things that I am as unknown as you."
As he spoke, he reached out to help me, but I blocked it with my backhand, and Kihara was a little surprised, but soon he regained his calm face.
I looked at Kihara indifferently and resistantly, I don't know his purpose and identity now, but along the way, he defended me everywhere as if he had to escort me to a certain destination, so I had to admit that he really didn't mean to hurt me, when my mind was confused, my brain still decided that I couldn't do anything rashly, no matter what happened now, I couldn't go back, the purpose of my trip was to find the "mailbox" that ghost thing, and then end everything.
"Okay."
I nodded at him, and Kihara nodded at me as if relieved, and with his support, I slowly got up and stepped out of the boat with a little difficulty.
In addition to sweating, I gradually found that my legs were much better than just now, and it was unbelievable, but even though I couldn't figure it out, there was still a trace of inexplicable excitement in my heart, "I don't have to worry about being injured anymore and affecting what I'm about to travel next."
Just as Kihara and I were about to abandon the boat and move forward, I suddenly felt the need to see what was hidden in those white envelopes piled up into a hill—
"Oh my God, this is..."
The envelopes I opened were like an open door in front of me, and I was surprised to find that these letters were actually the replies we had once called "countermeasures" against death in the classroom of Class D.
Not to mention how these letters came here, the content of the letters surprised me, I still remember the special one that Liao Tai moved from the class in the complex building at that time, which made everyone's hearts fall into the abyss of suspicion, and only went in and out of the iron mailbox, everyone kept a terrible strange distance and silently replied, doubting and speculating with each other, everyone's eyes and hearts were painted with panic and dark colors, and the only real thought that showed their hatred, transparency, and extreme fear was the reply letters.
For some reason, I was anxious to see someone's reply, to confirm some of the doubts I had been obscuring in my mind, as if I had the power to peep into the privacy of others, and in an unusual excitement and palpitations, I opened each letter one by one...
With this kind of vision that I have never experienced, I look back on the inner world of everyone in Class D of the first year of high school... What a fresh and strange feeling, and at the same time, when I saw the meaning of those words, I realized that the suffocating shiver was not only in the "lily of the valley puppet", but also... I think the most trustworthy person around me.
It wasn't difficult to find the man's reply, and Kihara on the side didn't want me to waste my time here, but when he caught a glimpse of the other scene in my hand, Kihara couldn't help but crouch down.
"This is the man's letter."
I nodded, and the person Kihara was talking about was Momoi.
We found all the letters signed by TS, and although I didn't have much time to read them all, the first one I opened was enough to surprise and pore me like never before—
"Liulixi has amnesia, like countless times before, fainted without warning, she didn't wake up when I went to visit her, it is estimated that it will take a few days, and it is precisely for this reason that I met with Ghost Mountain Cangyi as promised."
