69. Chitori Island Escape Plan
On a rainy day filled with the smell of asphalt and rust, the scorching sun still hangs on one end of the distant mountains, and Chitori Island is quietly bathed in the sun and rain.
"You did the weather?" Jiang Yuan asked curiously.
Jinghai Shenyue sighed with a look of surrender and said, "How is it possible." β
"Yes."
If the premise of using the ability is to pay the "price" of the earthquake, then it is even more impossible for the quiet sea deep moon who wants to leave to do it.
"What's in the tape you brought with you last time?"
Jinghai Shenyue lay on her back on the bench, holding the pillow and looking at the lattice ceiling, her fair long legs under the skirt had an extremely well-proportioned beauty.
The words on the tape flickered in his mind like the flame of a candle before disappearing.
Jiang Yuanshen sat on the office chair, crossed his legs and pretended to be calm: "The tape is broken." β
"Is that so?" Jinghai Shenyue turned her head slightly, and her serious gaze passed through the black hair in front of her eyes.
It feels like an affirmation of his lies.
"Well, it's broken."
Jiang Yuan was unmoved.
I don't know exactly how her mother died, but listening to that voice, it seems that she jumped into Lake Kamo because of the failure to get out of the island.
At least for now, I don't know if I want to tell her the news.
"Oh." She looked at the ceiling again, curled up her slender legs, and said, "What next?" β
Jiang Yuanshen's emotions gradually stirred, and he could even detect all the inauspicious breath exhaled.
"Then again, the magnitude of the earthquake five years ago."
"It's 8.9."
Her voice was like a final prayer, her eyes were illusory, and she said the numbers in a voice that seemed to be interrupted at any moment.
A sullen expression crossed Jiang Yuanshen's face, but he still spoke: "I've been thinking about it for the past few days, no matter what, we have to plan for the worst. β
"So you're thinking."
Jinghai Shenyue suddenly sat up, took out the bag on the table, and took out a small fruit box from it.
It's a small tomato.
"What do you think I'm doing?"
Jinghai Shenyue seriously tore off the sticker on the box, put her hand against her chin and began to think: "Playing love games with two other girls?" β
"I didn't."
"Also, as long as you pretend to be stupid, no one will know that you are really stupid." Jinghai Shenyue smiled dryly and corrected.
β.β
Jiang Yuanshen looked at her onion fingers and pinched a small tomato, and took it directly into her mouth, and at that moment she could watch the cherry red lilac tongue.
Even though her thin lips blocked her vision, she could still imagine the scene of crushed flesh splashing juice in her mouth.
"Jiang Yuan, you're looking too hard."
"Do you like to eat cherry tomatoes?"
"I like to call it cherry tomatoes, and it will be sweet and sour when you eat it, and it will feel very different, I like it very much, and I hope to have the opportunity to grow my own small tomatoes in the future."
"Hey, what a lofty ideal."
"It's not an ideal, it's just something you want to do, and you should have it too."
"You don't have to work, you sleep on a tatami mat."
"Laziness is enough." Jinghai Shenyue coughed lightly and pulled the topic back, "The earthquake that year changed the terrain on Zhitori Island, and I have always restrained it, it shouldn't be so big." β
Jiang Yuanshen stretched out his hand and pinched the little tomato, glanced at her for permission, and saw that she didn't say anything, so he ate it boldly.
"But no matter what, be careful."
When he bit into the tomato, his eyes couldn't help but squint slightly because of the fruit acid that splattered out, but soon, it was like flowing into a spring, full of sweetness.
"What can you do?" She said.
"Let's sort it out first, there are only two ways to leave Zhitori Island, one is to take an airboat, and the other is to take a newspaper helicopter."
Jiang Yuanshen took another small tomato and put it in his mouth, walked to the whiteboard, took out a piece of blue chalk from the accommodation bar below, and wrote on it the words steamboat and helicopter respectively,
"If you take a steamboat, the privacy is not high, and you can easily be discovered by the islanders, but the newspaper helicopter is the opposite, because it is a private place, and the privacy is guaranteed."
Jinghai Shenyue dragged her cheeks with one hand, and her mouth first made a goat-like sound, and then said:
"The only places where the steamboats on the island left were Liangjin Port and Xiaomu Port, and there was too much traffic, and they were all real-name registration, so I shouldn't be able to do it."
"I've always wanted to ask, why don't you want people to find out?"
Jinghai Shenyue tilted her slender neck, looked at him with a serious face, and said:
What if the "price" is false? Wouldn't it be better if I had already left, but people thought I was on the island, and life would be safe and nothing had happened? β
Jiang Yuanshen showed an extremely surprised expression: "I thought you just wanted to leave. β
Her long and delicate hair, like a curtain of rain in the dark night, gently slid down from the thin shoulders of the deep moon in the quiet sea.
"Jiang Yuan, you're still a childβ"
"You're only a few months older than me, pretending to be an adult."
Jiang Yuan glanced at her cautiously, the foreskin of the sofa around her buttocks was wrinkled, and the shallow grooves were full of black curtains.
Jinghai Shenyue smiled faintly, and then said: "There is no way for the steamboat, and there is no way for the newspaper helicopter, and the two of us have no relationship channels." β
"Maybe you can spend some money? Didn't you tell me you had a lot of money saved? Jiang Yuanshen said.
"Hmm," Jinghai Shenyue's voice was like a film of water, "How much is it estimated to be?" β
"Two million?" Jiang Yuan tilted his head cautiously and said, "The person who can fly a helicopter is estimated to be quite powerful, and it is estimated that there will be more than one person by then." β
"Isn't it too much? The total amount of money I saved was only 800,000. β
Jiang Yuanshen's eyes widened slightly, and he looked at the innocent girl beside him in astonishment, and couldn't help but moan like a loser.
"Eight hundred thousand? Are you all over the body? β
"Well, it's the rewards I got from every exam and festival since I was a child, and there are also red envelopes that the islanders gave me on New Year."
"Really? That's it? β
"What am I lying to you for?" Hearing his words, Jinghai Shenyue frowned with some dissatisfaction.
Her eyes were as clear as crystal, and Jiang Yuan couldn't help but suddenly realize that she was careless after all-
She was only a sixteen-year-old child on the island, and she was not from an extremely wealthy family.
Probably because of Kurosawa's pity, he would feel that 800,000 is an extremely small amount, which is really sad.
"If you don't talk about it if you're not sure enough, you might even be used as a joke." Jiang Yuanshen said.
β.β
After a short silence, Jinghai Shenyue couldn't help but ask a question that even Jiang Yuanshen thought was impossible.
"Will Kurosawa-san help?" She asked, peering into the boy's eyes.
"Kurosawa-san?"
Jinghai Shenyue just looked out the window, the rain outside had stopped, and the weeds that rose and fell with the wind sparkled under the dazzling sun.
"I remember that the newspaper was her father's, and if she wanted to, we should have been able to leave by helicopter without bribes."
"But the relationship between the two of you doesn't seem to be very good."
Jiang Yuanshen couldn't figure out why Kurosawa Mercy wanted to help Shizumi Shenyue, it can be said that he didn't have it at all, and the last time he was in the school corridor, Kurosawa Mercy was not very friendly to Jinghai Shenyue.
Jinghai Shenyue raised the corners of her mouth slightly, looked at Jiang Yuanshen meaningfully and said:
"Indeed, I think she's hostile to me because of you, and I'm still angry to hear her use the word 'village girl' to describe me."
"Is it because of me again?"
"Isn't it? The whole school knows she likes you, only the two of you are pretending not to know. β
Jinghai Shenyue felt a little speechless, and after a while, she continued,
"I always feel that the two of you will be together, because she is different from us, she has the ability to rack her brains and do everything, and only such a girl can fulfill her wishes, even if it is a very small hope of a relationship. She's really amazing. β
β.β
Jiang Yuanshen was choked and speechless, and the light outside the window fell on her hair, as if she saw a white hair like silk flickering.
"What's more, I've always believed that everyone is essentially a gentle girl."
Jinghai Shenyue's words sounded a little lonely.
"I'll figure it out." Jiang Yuan exhaled cautiously, circled the helicopter with chalk, soothed his stiff face, and said, "Then about what to do if there is an earthquake, I want to find a good time." β
"For example?"
"Of course it can't be at night, preferably during the day, and preferably not the islanders' nap time."
If nothing is done, people may die when an earthquake occurs, and the last major earthquake caused hundreds of deaths, and the psychological impact on the islanders is immeasurable.
"Indeed, we need to find a way to notify everyone in advance of evacuation." Jinghai Shenyue said.
"By the way, I remember that every household had to be equipped with a letter receiving device, didn't I?"
Jiang Yuanshen suddenly remembered that the government required all residents on Zhitori Island to install information receiving devices in case of another disaster.
But now, the receiving device has become the exclusive radio station of Zhitori Island, which often broadcasts trivial things, and it is estimated that many residents have unplugged it.
"Well, basically every house has it." Jinghai Shenyue whispered to herself, "But there are already many people who feel that the noise is turned off. I also think it's noisy."
Jiang Yuanshen took a deep breath and said, "Maybe before you leave, we can use that receiving device to guide the islanders to a safe place." β
"Use that? It was a government-run broadcast, and without the news from the Earthquake Intelligence and Prediction Division, they would not have been able to spread the word for us. β
"Can't you either?"
Jinghai Shenyue glared at him like an idiot: "Do you think that all the people in the government are Zhiniao Islanders?" Think I'm right? β
"Huh? Isn't it? β
"Of course not."
"Is there a way to sneak in, let's say I'm going to buy some sleeping pills and put them in a drink, and ask them to drink it, so I can control the receiver to play the radio."
Jinghai Shenyue helplessly raised her hand and pinched the bridge of her delicate nose, and exhaled depressedly and said, "If it's okay, I don't want you to blatantly commit a crime because of me." β
β.β
"Why don't you speak?"
She looked at her in confusion.
"No, it feels like I'm being treated like a human being by you." Jiang Yuan said involuntarily.
Jinghai Shenyue was stunned for a while, then stroked her hair behind her ears with her hand, and said with a smile:
"Stupid."
The girlish breath under her skin continued to come out, looking at her smile, Jiang Yuanshen didn't shake his mind for a moment.
I almost forgot that Jinghai Shenyue is the most beautiful and moving girl on Zhitori Island, and the smile crit at close range is enough to make an innocent teenager go crazy and fall.
"Can we ask hackers to hijack the broadcast?"
Jiang Yuanshen, who came back to his senses, turned on his mobile phone, searched for a piece of news and showed it to her,
"You see, in Victoria, Australia, there was a hacker who hijacked the radio network of the police and allowed the suspect to escape."
"Do not do anything sinful." Not giving in to this is the main premise, Jinghai Shenyue simply retorted directly, "If you really have to break the law to leave, I'd rather you don't do it." β
Jiang Yuan sensed her mood and had no choice but to nod.
"But only storage devices are the most effective and credible method of communication."
"Maybe I'll be able to find a few acquaintances in the broadcasting department." Jinghai Shenyue's small hand pressed her chin and said, "I can find the list from my father's office, maybe there will be someone we know who works there." β
Hearing her say this, Jiang Yuanshen slowly exhaled and asked, "You call Jinghai Yaren your father?" β
"Yes, because after my mother died, he took care of me." Jinghai Shenyue said in a slightly trembling voice, "Azusa Kawa Xiaokong's words, I don't have too deep feelings for him. β
Jiang Yuanshen felt the heat like stinging skin, there was not even an electric fan here.
"But he's always seen you as a shadow of your mother, right?"
He whispered what he thought in his heart, and Jinghai Yaren's emotional dedication to Jinghai Shenyue has exceeded the category of "daughter".
At this moment, Jinghai Shenyue's little face suddenly turned cold.
"It's disgusting, don't say it again."
"I'm sorry."
"By the way, we'd better have the islanders who have unplugged the receiver reinstall it, just in case."
"This one is a bit of a hassle."
Jiang Yuan scratched his cheeks cautiously, Zhiniao Island has an area of more than 800 square kilometers and a circumference of more than 250 kilometers, and residential houses are scattered on the island.
If you want to check it one by one, it is estimated that it will waste a lot of time, and this kind of work is definitely not something that can be completed in a week.
"I think it's better if you have that kind of friend who is kind of heart-to-heart, it can help a lot." Jinghai Shenyue spoke.
"You don't have that kind of friend?"
"There is a title of "queen" on the top of my head, and I think it is difficult to have friends who are close to me." She said with a look of disinterest.
- I guess I didn't want to make friends.
Jiang Yuan pursed his lips cautiously, and finally made a plan on the whiteboard with chalk.
Regarding the means of transportation out of the island, he tried to get Kurosawa to join him, but in the end, the choice was on Kurosawa Mercy, and if she refused, he had to think of another way.
I hope that, as she said, everyone is essentially a gentle girl.
In order to avoid the impact of the earthquake, Jinghai Shenyue will look for the list of government broadcasters to find out if there are any familiar people.
And to get the islanders who unplugged the receiver to reinstall it myself, this is too much work, and it needs to find a few people to do it together.
It sounds simple, but I hope it will actually do it as smoothly as the whiteboard depicts.
After one last confirmation, the two left the abandoned iron works.
Outside the factory, the sky overhead is clear, and the chopped cumulonimbus clouds are flowing with the wind.
The puddles on the sun-drenched asphalt glittered, and the two with secrets parted at the bus stop.
Woo woo, there are no tickets~~~
