The atmosphere remained dull at the edge of the wet and cold beach at midnight, and the boy sitting on the reef stared at the tall, thin man standing not far away, while the other party was also looking at him motionlessly, expressionless.

"Judging by your behavior, you're watching me."

After a moment of silence, seeing that the other party didn't mean to speak, Lan Li said again: "And this kind of observation is completely different from those who drowned people. At the same time, before being found by the drowned people, I had been stalked, a silver-haired woman, they said so. ”

When it came to the silver-haired woman, Lan Li paid attention to the expression of the person in front of her, but still didn't see anything.

"And neither the woman nor you seem to be able to find exactly where I am." Lan Li said, raising his hand to grasp the void, frowning as if he had caught something.

"I can probably guess it's because of the cat, because there's never been anything like this before."

The air cat in his hand obviously didn't understand the identity of his "mole", and after being caught, he shook his body and put his fleshy claws on Lan Li's arm to show his closeness, so Lan Li let go of his hand and didn't care about it anymore.

"So at first I thought you two were in a group, just to observe me. So you can't let me leave the Iron Islands so easily, so the drowning people came to the door, but—"

He paused, his fingers fiddling with the bronze ring around his neck, as if unintentionally.

"Later I found out that maybe you weren't two people, but one."

These words finally made the other party's expression react, and it seemed to become a little complicated for a moment.

"A woman and a man seem to be two people, why can't they be one?"

Lan Li on the side said to herself: "You never participated in the drowning people bathing in the sea, and no one has ever seen you pee in front of others, and since you appeared, that woman has disappeared without the slightest rumor...... Are you a faceless? Can you change your appearance at will? ”

"That's all?" The other party asked, his voice becoming a little hoarse: "Based on these alone, you think that I am a woman?" ”

"Of course not."

Lan Li smiled and said, "But the others can't be told to you, it's a secret." ”

"Is it a secret......

The other party muttered, his tone complicated: "You have a lot of secrets." ”

This emotion was obviously a little abnormal, and at the same time, due to his newly evolved characteristics, Lan Li faintly felt a sad emotion, which made him frown involuntarily, but then he didn't need to think about why this emotion was, because the other party had already made a move.

I saw that the thin Gao Lean who was standing there suddenly raised his hand and touched his left cheek, and then, under Lan Li's unsurprising gaze, his fingers pinched the edge of his cheek and lifted it out—

A soft flesh-colored mask was therefore pinched in the other party's hand, and the face under the mask had become very beautiful.

Because the sky was dark, Lan Li didn't feel too special at first, but after carefully looking at the slim and slender woman not far away, his originally calm expression was unconsciously stunned, and then his pupils shrank suddenly.

"You ......"

With a smooth forehead, delicate facial features, and long black hair constantly fluttering under the sea breeze made her look a little different, but that melon seed face made Lan Li quite familiar.

"Rhaenys?"

The boy's stunned voice made the woman not far away smile, but she didn't stop, raising her right hand and tugging at her white neck, while looking at Lan Li with interest.

A silver necklace was pulled off by her, and its beautiful face was in a trance for a moment, and then suddenly dissipated, or rather, suddenly disappeared half of it.

Under the cold wind of the night, half of the slender figure standing on the beach was still delicate and fair, and the appearance of being stirred by the hair looked very moving, but there was a tangled and ugly burning scar on her right cheek at this time, with her eyebrows and down to the edge of her lips, setting off the beautiful left half of her cheek, like a combination of angels and demons, which seemed so strange and discordant.

"Long time no see."

She finally spoke, her voice hoarse, but there was no longer the slightest hint of the smile in her tone.

Countless questions came to mind in an instant, but he didn't know where to start, and after a moment's pause, Lan Li couldn't help but say, "Aren't you already-"

"Already dead?"

The woman smiled faintly: "You are so smart, you should be able to guess what the truth is." ”

"That Ada?" Lan Li said as he looked at the mask in his hand.

"That's right."

"Then your face ......"

"Accidentally burned."

The woman touched the right side of her face and smiled disapprovingly.

"After so many years, I've gotten used to it."

As she spoke, her eyes glancing with interest at Lan Li's current immature appearance.

"Is this your other identity? Or is it the real you? ”

"It's another identity, it's me."

Lan Li hesitated to answer, then glanced at the mask fluttering in the wind in the other party's hand.

"How did you become the Faceless?"

"I learned it while traveling in a free trade city-state, and it's very useful." As the woman spoke, Fu brought the necklace back to her neck, and the right half of her face, which had been quite ugly, quietly changed, and finally merged with the harmony on the left.

"And a little bit of magic at the same time."

Free Trade City-State ...... The Faceless One......

Lan Li heard that his mind was complicated, but he didn't think much about it, because he still had a lot of confusion at the moment.

"And how did you find me? And how old are you? ”

"When you were in the Desert of Dorne, you said that your name was Lanli, a name that is rare, so I was able to find you. At the same time, I think you know better than I know why I'm here. ”

Rhaenys whispered, "As for appearance, I don't know why I'm back to this now, I only know that it has something to do with Raya, I took the dragon in revenge, I wanted to blame my sister, but I didn't want to provoke Raya, and then—and then everything changed...... Sorry, I didn't know it was you. ”

She looked both apologetic and calm, a little so that Lan Li didn't know what to say.

Blame?

It's not strange if you don't know, besides, it's still his acquaintance, an acquaintance who "came back from the dead", to be honest, he still feels quite happy now.

What's not going on?

Burned alive, who hurts who knows.

And there's also—

"And then?"

Lan Li suddenly asked, "What happened later?" ”

"You want to ask Raya?"

Rhaenys asked, and when Lan Li nodded, she seemed a little hesitant and a little gloomy: "I'm not sure about Raya—but I think she may have—already dead." ”

He's dead?

Lan Li was stunned when he heard this.
