Chapter 154: Something Goes Wrong Again
And it is true that he once imagined that he could be lucky to really find a way out in the process of finding a way out along the way, and it would be good to get any martial arts cheats or something, but the wish is beautiful, and the reality is cruel, after going around the lake for a long time, and he can not find any other way out except for vaguely realizing that the lake seems to be connected to a stream leading downstream.
But if they can find a way to the downstream, it means that the two of them can find a feasible escape route is much more reliable, for Kazuya, this is also a harvest, although limited by time, he can not continue to move forward, but he believes that the two still have a great chance to find a place along this creek, after all, this mountain is just a mountain for tourism near the outskirts of the city, not a small peak in the kind of continuous mountains.
Of course, there were many times when Kazuya would think that if he used a torch to put a "SOS" distress signal or something in a more conspicuous place, it would be more reliable than trying his luck aimlessly, but although the canyon was not particularly narrow, it was still very difficult for helicopters and other things to enter, and he still vetoed this plan in his mind.
"Sa, next," I don't know when the sun that had risen high had been blocked by the clouds, and it was inconvenient and aware of the specific moment now, so he could only turn on his mobile phone and confirm the specific time with the limited power, "Let's go back to the camp first, looking at the stream under the lake that leads downstream, it is indeed possible to go down the mountain, but this is definitely not a half-day walk, so let's go back and discuss the next plan of action with Kato first!" ”
However, at this time, both Kazuya, who went out to find a way out, and Kato, who was on standby, had the biggest problem, and the sky began to fall sparsely and raindrops. It is not surprising that it rains in the valley, but the rain is definitely not a good thing for the two who are helpless now, which means first of all that Kazuya and Kato have prepared the fire will definitely be extinguished, and the two of them have no other means to avoid the rain except to hide under the tree, of course, the more serious problem is that the rain will definitely interfere with the line of sight, making the mountain road more difficult to walk, and it is inconvenient for the search personnel to search for the two.
"Really, I'm really worried about what's coming," Kazuya smiled bitterly, dragged his coat off his head, and kept jumping around between the few trees in the valley, trying to go back while sheltering from the rain, "Kato's cold over there shouldn't be completely healed, if it rains again now, then there will be a big problem!" ”
Worried about Kato's loneliness, Kazuya quickened his pace, but the growing rain curtain made it impossible for him to discern the direction of his progress, so he could only wait under the tree in a somewhat anxious manner.
And when the raindrops slowly became smaller, and when Kazuya was about to start again, he was surprised to find that the mark indicating the direction that he had specially marked in the process of looking for a way out had disappeared at this time.
In the process of walking along the shore of the lake, Kazuya still encountered a few forks in the road, in this case, his general practice is to use a few stones to form an arrow, leading to his own direction of return, but, it seems that because the rain is too big to cause the lake water to rise, these stones placed on the shore have been submerged by the lake, and because the rain is too big to obstruct his vision, and he is also a little helpless to find that he can no longer distinguish the way back.
"That's a real problem!" With a wry smile, Kazuya stopped at the fork in the road with some hesitation, he knew that if he went the wrong way, it would mean that he would need to spend twice as long to go back to find Kato, and whether Kato would be worried about himself or not would go out to find himself against the agreement between the two, it would take more time, and the risk of walking at night would be greater.
"But you can't help but act!" The rain in the valley usually stops after a while, and looking at the slowly decreasing raindrops, as well as his soaked and slightly soaking shoes that look very uncomfortable, Kazuya still made up his mind and chose a direction that felt more right, "After all, I made an appointment with Kato!" ”
If you hesitate here, then the two are likely to be unable to get in touch, although the agreed time with Kato is to go back before the evening, and if you can't do it now, then at least go back as soon as possible, so that she can rest assured, after all, she is only a boy, or a boy who has lived more than ten years more than the other party, and it is not a wise choice to admit it at this time!
At this time, the so-called wisdom, the so-called experience, and the so-called experience can no longer play much role, and I also understand that all I can rely on is my own perseverance and the decisive courage to make decisions when it is time to make decisions.
"There is no problem, even if you go the wrong way, you should be able to find the problem after a while, so the key is not to hesitate, you must go forward!" Cheer yourself up.,Kazuya walked forward with the light rain that hit his face densely.。
--------------------------- Dividing Line--------------------------------
When the day became a little gloomy, Kato realized that something was wrong, and the most important thing at this time was the source of the fire, so he carefully put away the remaining half of the box of matches that Kazuya handed over to him before leaving, and Kato began to look for a place to shelter himself from the rain near the campsite.
However, it was only then that she realized that the vicinity of the place where the two had chosen was unexpectedly empty, and there was no cave to avoid the aforementioned cave, not to mention that Kato could not even find a tree large enough for him to hide from the rain, and walking along the river bank in the direction of Kazuya, Kato could not find a place to hide from the rain at close range.
This puts Kato in a dilemma: under normal circumstances, she should now go to find a place where she can hide from the rain, which is also the most correct choice she should make now, because although her cold has improved a lot, her body is still relatively weak, and she can't afford to bear the baptism of a rainstorm, but Kato also understands that this will cause a very serious problem, that is, she will definitely not be able to find herself when she comes back to find herself, so she can't find the location of the camp, because once it rains, The campfires that turned out to be recognizable would certainly also be extinguished, and if there was no one more to take as a hint, it would be easy to miss in a situation where the line of sight was poor. Therefore, another way is to reluctantly take shelter from the rain under the nearby cliff or under the small tree, waiting for Kazuya to return, which is a necessary measure for Kazuya to be able to find the camp, but if you take shelter from the rain under the cliff, there will definitely be a possible danger of being hit by the debris from the raindrops, and the few bare trees near you don't seem to play much of a role in protecting yourself when the real rainstorm comes.
Kato's usual calm analysis doesn't seem to be able to do much of a thing, it's a dilemma of choosing one or the other, or choosing to wait and return, the two can wait together for rescue, but the price paid is that their bodies are very likely to get worse, or they choose to escape on their own, but the risk is that the two are likely to fall into a situation where they are fighting separately.
And Megumi Kato, after hesitating for a long time, looked at the clouds that were getting thicker and thicker, and the sky that was getting darker and darker, and secretly made a decision: "I'm sorry, Aragaki-san, I know that if I stay, I will probably end up being a burden due to illness, but I still prefer to expect from you, and I hope that the two of you can find a way out together, so I choose to stay, so let me be selfish!" ”
Glancing at the footprints left by Kazuya when he left, Kato smiled: "At that time, it was me who told the teacher about you, and to some extent said that he saved you, so can it be said that it is your turn to save me now?" ”
After making sure that the remaining half of the box of matches was still on his chest and well protected, Kato slowly leaned under a small tree near his camp that was still relatively dense with leaves, and quietly looked in the direction where Kazuya went out: "Aragaki-san, I've been waiting for you to come back!" At least this time, you don't want to live up to my hopes! ”
------------------------- dividing line--------------------------------
And he didn't know how long he had been walking in the rain, although in the process of looking for his way back, he had slowly found that the road he had chosen with a gambling nature should be the right one, because he had found traces of the grass he had stepped on at that time on the shore of the lake, but, compared to the complacent and confident situation when he set out, his current state was very embarrassed, he had enough sleep when he set off, and he could barely replenish some food, So both his physical condition and mental condition are very good, but now, after a day of walking, his physical strength has fallen into a state of fatigue, and his coat, which has been simply tied into a turban, is also too rainy to wear, which makes him even more uncomfortable when he already feels a little cold.
"If this continues, I'm going to catch a cold! Now it's because I'm walking non-stop, so I still have heat in my body, and if I stop and don't walk later, it will be a big problem," although I don't know how long I've been walking, Kazuya instinctively feels that he is very close to the camp, and looking at the bare land on this land, as well as a few trees with crooked necks that are rarely seen, Kazuya is also a little worried, "That guy Kato, won't there be no place to hide from the rain?" This guy should pay attention to his body first! ”
With this in mind, Kazuya quickened his pace, and at this moment, he saw the standing man in the distance win.
"Is it Kato?" Although I can't see it very clearly, judging from the relatively shallow flame behind the man's body, it should be that after the rain stopped, Kato rekindled the fire.
"If you can still make a fire, then it means that Kato should have no problem, right?" Kazuya nodded a little excitedly, "That's right, although that guy looks very inconspicuous, but in fact, it is precisely because of this that he is the one who needs the least to worry about everyone!" ”
With this thought, Kazuya ran towards Kato with some excitement: "Hey, Kato, I'm back to tell you good news, I think we might be able to find a way down the mountain!" ”
"Ah, welcome back, Aragaki-san, I almost didn't keep my promise!" And Megumi Kato's clothes made Kazuya dress neatly and unexpectedly, making a very natural cohabitant welcome home, and said to Kazuya.
"But in the end I came back! There's no way around it, it's raining so hard! I almost got lost and couldn't come back! Kazuya scratched his head, shook off the remaining room on his head, and then put his shirt in front of the fire and baked it, "But Kato, how did you hide from the rain?" Didn't you take your top off to use as a poncho? That's what I did, so my current shirt is almost useless! ”
"Anyway, I just figured out a way to avoid the rain." Kato said with a simple nod, and the moment Kazuya came to her, she immediately turned her head with a little shaking.
But Kazuya, who was excited, didn't realize Kato's abnormality, but continued: "Got it, Kato, I've already found the stream leading downstream, that is, this valley is definitely not closed, as long as we walk along the stream, we can definitely find a place to get out, so let's walk over together tomorrow, can't we sit here and wait for death!" You're okay with your body, right? ”
"Well, I'm sorry! Aragaki-san! Kato's voice was very strange, and it was much softer than when he listened to her before, and it was at this time that Kazuya realized the abnormality of Kato's state.
"Kato? What's wrong? ”
"Well, I'm really sorry, Aragaki-san, I may have wasted the opportunity you gave us to find out, and now my body is not so comfortable!" Kato turned around and turned his face, which was flushed from fever, towards Kazuya.
Kazuya stepped forward to support Kato, who was a little shaky, and was surprised to find that Kato Megumi's clothes were covered with water droplets: "Kato, shouldn't you have waited for me here without going to hide from the rain?" ”
"There's no way! I really believe in Aragaki-san," Kato smiled lightly and said, "It's just that the scene I said before was discovered by the other party until I couldn't hold on anymore still has to be re-enacted, I'm sorry, Aragaki-san, you tried so hard to get me back the night before!" This time, I'm a little willful! ”
