Summer rainstorms swept through the entire forest.

Dongjiao Mountain, as the name suggests, is a small hill forest located directly east of the city of W, about 10 kilometers from the city center

On a clear morning, the sun rises lazily from the back of the mountain, bringing warmth to this bustling "garden water town" all day long.

The summer camp site of Mo Zihan and his party was also chosen on this eastern suburb mountain.

The rain continued for almost the whole night, and it was only at 4 a.m. the next morning that the rain subsided slightly.

Large raindrops fell on the waterproof tent, "da-da" rang all night, and there was a Lin Fei beside him who was snoring louder than a tractor, Mo Zihan was half-asleep and half-awake all night.

In addition, the night before, Shirley said so many heart-wrenching words to herself, and the seemingly ordinary confiding echoed countless times in Mo Zihan's mind, and those gentle words seemed to be thinking about what she was hinting at.

"Why? Why did she tell me about her family, why did she say something of encouragement to me when she was confiding in me?"

The more Mo Zihan thought about it, the more strange it became, he turned over and lay on his side, and through the tent cloth, he vaguely saw a faint light flashing in Shirley's tent not far away.

"This ......"

Mo Zihan instantly came to his senses, and stood up from the quilt in a hurry, and Lin Fei on the side was still sleeping like a dead pig.

"Half past four?"

Mo Zihan looked at the time on his phone, the more he thought about it, the more strange it became, after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart, wrapped his clothes, and slowly opened the small door of the tent.

The rain in the night sky has almost stopped, and the mountains and forests washed by the heavy rain are filled with a strong smell of grass.

Mo Zihan cautiously walked to Shirley's tent, but there was no human figure in the bright tent.

"Shirley, Shirley. ”

Mo Zihan lowered his voice and gently shook the tent with his hand, but there was no response inside.

Such a scene is not terrifying, but for some reason, Mo Zihan always felt very panicked, he circled the tent several times, and after some mental struggle, he still opened Shirley's tent.

really

The tent was empty, except for a set of white sheets and mattresses neatly folded, and the tent exuded a faint feminine body fragrance.

"Still hot?"

Mo Zihan reached out and touched the sheet, but was surprised to find a note in the gap between the sheet and the pillow, which read as follows:

After the rain stops, I'll be waiting for you at the top of the mountain!

At the end of the note, the inscription is: Ye Qiu

Mo Zihan's fragile heart suddenly fell to the ground like glass, because his first reaction after seeing this note was that Shirley was going on a date with another man.

However, this stupid guess was denied by Mo Zihan in less than a minute.

"It's still raining at half-past four in the morning, what kind of romance is this?"

Mo Zihan has always been a person who walks with his heart, although he usually experiences more or less time to think about every move he makes, but in the face of the things in front of him at the moment, curiosity still drives him to the top of the mountain, and he doesn't forget to fold the note and put it back in its place before leaving.

The mountain road after the rain is extremely difficult to walk, and the wet land makes it difficult for Mo Zihan to walk, and even in the middle of summer, the mountains and forests at five o'clock in the morning still can't see the sun, Mo Zihan relies on the faint light of a mobile phone, step by step towards the top of the mountain.

If there is anything that supports his beliefs, it may be because he is worried about Shirley's safety, or it may be out of longing for the unknown.

"Smack"

Mo Zihan stretched out and grabbed a thick tree trunk, at this moment his sneakers were already covered with mud, and the mountain road of about a mile staggered for half an hour, and it was not far from the top of the mountain at this moment, he leaned against this stout tree to rest.

"Are you really thinking about it? Tell him all this. ”

As soon as Mo Zihan lay down, he heard a man's voice not far behind him. A woman's voice followed

"It's time for him to know in advance how much of a burden he has on his shoulders. ”

This soft female voice Mo Zihan is all too familiar.

At five o'clock in the morning, at dawn, the sky gradually turned white, and with the faint light of the rising sun, Mo Zihan quietly hid behind the tree, revealing half an eye to look at the two figures on the side of the hill.

With that delicate and small figure, Mo Zihan would never admit that it was Shirley.

And the man standing opposite Shirley was not very tall, with his hands behind his back, under the glow of the rising sun, Mo Zihan could only vaguely see a well-defined face.

Looking at the strange man beside Shirley, Mo Zihan suddenly remembered the two words of the note: Ye Qiu

Could it be ......

The top of the mountain in the early morning was very quiet, and the conversation between the two reached Mo Zihan's ears word for word:

"You and I both know that there is no point in you doing this, we can't change the fate of a city. The man's voice was sonorous and powerful.

"I don't want to change the fate of this city, I just want to change his fate, I know he is mortal, but his death should not be on that day!"

"Well, in that case, please be prepared. ”

Shirley's tone was extremely firm, but Mo Zihan was confused.

Dead?Who is dead?me?

Mo Zihan pricked up his ears and was ready to listen carefully to the next dialogue.

However, there was a sudden deathly silence behind the tree, and the two seemed to end the seemingly headless conversation.

Mo Zihan turned over again, and with a nervous heart, he slowly moved his head out of the safe zone brought to him by the big tree.

The early morning wind blew through the hillside, and the wildflowers on the slope were blown to the ground after the baptism of the rainstorm.

However, the two people who were still talking on the hillside disappeared as if they had evaporated from the world at this moment.

"What about people?"

"I'm sorry!"

I'm sorry, it was the last three words Mo Zihan heard before he fainted.

Because after discovering that Shirley and the mysterious man were missing, the next second, Mo Zihan only felt a numbness in his neck, and fell to the soft and wet ground.

The sun is about to rise, and W City will usher in a new day.

Shirley and the man named Ye Qiu were now beside Mo Zihan, who had fainted, and the man leaned over and picked up Mo Zihan and said to Shirley:

"Send him back......"
