This was also part of the plan; it seems that Xiao 9 didn't go fishing as soon as she arrived at the beach.
Sister 45 suppressed her smile and mouthed, "Well done."
9, who had already buried her head in the bed, winked at 45 and then continued to hold the other person down.
.......
at the same time
As Luo Fan stood on Waikiki Beach, gazing at the vast expanse of azure sea, he felt a sense of exhilaration.
Unlike before, the ocean tonight shimmered with a deep blue light, like a luminous pearl...
Everything is ready here as well.
The man picked up his headphones and whispered something almost inaudibly.
"Everything is ready here. You can release the target over there as needed."
"receive."
......
Two minutes later, Xiao 9 got out of bed and released 40.
This was truly an intimate hug; even as a tactical doll, 40 felt like he was suffocating...
But after he got up, he only saw Xiao 9 and 45 glance at him quickly a few times before standing in front of him together.
"By the way, 40, didn't you want to see what the outside world is like? Let's go now!"
"What...? Where to?"
"Oh, you'll see when you get there. It's no use telling us. Hurry up and go!"
Before the other party could react, 9 pulled 40 and walked out of the room.
I'm completely baffled. The situation is getting stranger and stranger. Just a moment ago, it was holding me tightly, looking reluctant to part, but now it's urging me to go out and see something.
But the question is, what exactly should we look at?
45. After the two people left, a helpless sigh came from the door.
She was alone in the room. Picking up the earphones, she walked towards the balcony.
Gazing at the vast blue sea, her expression seemed to relax considerably...
"Commander, the bird is about to be caged..."
......
P.S.: Please play "Floating" by Aviators for a better reading experience. (The next chapter will continue playing without pausing.)
Even when entering the elevator, she did so alone. Before she could ask any questions, she pushed 40 into the elevator and then closed the elevator door.
Inside the elevator, she was still pondering the words he had said just before the elevator doors closed...
"Just follow the path after leaving the hotel, the Commander is waiting for you there!"
The commander was waiting for him there. What was he doing there?
What is it that I heard but didn't see?
Or perhaps, what do they hope to see?
All the answers will be revealed in a few minutes.
Good evening, Miss.
"Ah, good evening."
As I stepped out of the elevator and into the lobby, the receptionist greeted me, catching me off guard while I was deep in thought.
The other person's expression seemed to carry a hidden meaning, as if hinting at something...
Why does it feel like I'm the only one who doesn't know anything?
Stepping out of the revolving door, a gentle breeze brushed her face, lifting her deep green hair and sending it fluttering in the wind. After a long sleep and without any grooming, keeping it neat in the breeze wasn't an easy task.
Her hair curled across her face as she stood in the moonlight, amidst a grove of trees, gazing up at the bright moon as if deep in thought.
Even the coconut tree leaves rustled, swaying wildly in the air, trying to cover the bright moon, as if it were a fig leaf invited by the moon.
Wait, a coconut tree?!
As if struck by a sudden enlightenment, 40 tons stood rooted to the spot, looking around at the surrounding woods, his eyes filled with undisguised shock.
"No, no way... this is..."
She hesitated; she couldn't believe this might be the scenery of her dreams.
But in the end, emotion prevailed over reason, and she took small steps toward the depths of the path.
However, the steps have become increasingly larger...
241 Drifting and the Ocean
How could this be?! How could this be?!
She couldn't believe it, and she couldn't believe it. How could they have ended up in such a place?
The more you question, the stronger this thirst for knowledge becomes, just like when 45 first saw her again, completely unable to believe it, yet hoping it was all true—how contradictory!
But this grove of trees, like her face touched by 45, will not deceive her.
Not far away, she could see shimmering blue light in the woods, dancing across her pupils and stimulating her vision.
"No...no..."
But the closer she got, the clearer and more melodious the surging sound became, and the more it made her feel a tremor in her heart.
The girl's hesitant footsteps rustled the leaves, the tides surged and receded, and someone was waiting for her there.
I wanted to tear these annoying leaves to shreds. I rushed through the grass like an impact and arrived in a completely new territory.
Even the sound of footsteps on the stones became a soft, rustling sound...
On the pale yet shimmering beach in the darkness, a few stranded boats, a few parasols that haven't been put away yet, a sea surface sparkling with light, and a barefoot man looking at the sea.
And that singing...
"Trying to see our own shadow"
She stood there, rooted to the spot. She had finally seen it, seen it with her own eyes...
"ocean......"
The girl stood there blankly on the beach, with nothing but herself and a man.
Like a dusty photograph, the beauty of the ocean is not only not fictional, but surpasses all records made through language.
On the beach, the man was also singing a song he didn't recognize, a song about the ocean, and also about his story with them...
"A river formed from tears"
"Searching for our shared dream"
"Beneath the pain, we are all the same."
Nothing is better than fighting for a common cause.
Don't you believe that love can light the way forward?
The tides rise and fall, time flies by, but now is an exception, where only beauty and time stand still.
The man turned around, and with that faint smile, it seemed he wanted to blend into this little world.
His singing, like the ceaseless waves, was like an invitation to someone, or perhaps a kind of suspicion...
"If only we could escape all the noise"
The man took a step and walked towards the girl standing on the beach. The moonlight gradually lengthened his shadow, casting it on the pale sand, like a spotlight on a stage, now professionally focused on the actor.
"Perhaps one day we will hear..."
As they drew closer, the curve of their raised hand became increasingly pronounced, making it clear who they were inviting.
The girl was still worried about something, but she still reached out her hand in cooperation.
The stage, lighting technician, and backdrop are all in place; all the elements of a stage play are basically complete. It's time to begin...
"Aren't we all adrift at sea?"
"Aren't we all standing in the wind and rain?"
"Can't you see the world we've built together?"
"Sharing sunshine and pain..."
The man sang loudly, and it seemed that animals and still lifes became his audience, the ocean was the band, and the audience showed respect to the singer with absolute silence.
This is not just for this young girl, but also for their own families. Those names are just a string of letters and numbers, but they represent incredibly beautiful souls.
"Someone needs to come and show us."
How to seek help when scared
Like two dancers, gracefully dancing.
After all, we all live together.
We all had a chance, even though it's long gone.
The girl's smile gradually appeared, and everything finally stopped seeming suspicious.
"It has already become a fragment of history that we have written down."
"Like humans, we are one."
At least for now, this is an invitation that belongs only to her, a stage set up for her, a gift prepared for her.
Even this ocean, which shouldn't be shining so brightly, was prepared for her.
"If we share the burden, we can travel light."
"Dispel the dark clouds and let the sun shine again."
They all drift in the vast ocean.
"They were all wandering aimlessly in the rain."
"We should go and witness together the world we create."
"Sharing sunshine and pain"
Is the beautiful young woman, having crossed the threshold of death and entered a second life, satisfied?
The man's singing gradually became more measured, but now it sounded more like a question posed to the young girl.
Will the girl who yearns for the ocean become a part of it?
A bottle that can never be filled with water is like a performance that can never be heard, yet continues to this day...
Would you seek out the truth that no one tells you?
"Hope is within reach, will you push it away?"
We all ignore our own wounds.
Love may make our wounds hurt even more.
But sometimes we all have to walk alone on the road.
We know that no one else needs to leave this home.
My heart is lost somewhere in the surging waves.
Even in the rain, the sun will shine.
This is the ocean, so...
"Come on, 40, and everyone else!"
"Wow!"
Luo Fan took the girl's hand and led her into the sea.
Regardless of whether these thin clothes will get wet, regardless of whether others are watching, regardless of the suffering they have endured in the past...
