Chapter 869: Illusions of the past, what’s wrong with the ‘clone’? ((1/3)
call--
Accompanied by the soft music of cucurbit flute.
The girl in a floral skirt squatted in the corner of the passage, carefully spread out the folded five-yuan banknotes in her hand, and placed them in a somewhat damaged iron bowl.
"Grandpa plays so beautifully."
She raised her hand and gave a thumbs up to the old man in front of her.
"Chichi, what are you doing?"
A clear woman's cry came from behind.
"immediately."
The girl turned around, stood up, looked at the two young women holding hands behind her, and quickly ran to their side.
"Chichi, did you just give that old man money?"
The young woman on the right who was close to the girl slightly poked her head out and glanced at the old man playing cucurbit flute in the corner, "I'm telling you, there are a lot of scammers around here, be careful of being defrauded of your money."
"It's just a few dollars, I can't afford much money,"
The girl chuckled and looked at the delicate makeup of the young woman in front of her, "I know you are doing it for my own good."
"You little girl, you are so easy to deceive. I don't know if you will be abducted by some bad man one day."
The young woman reached out and touched the girl's eyebrows.
Then the three of them laughed and walked forward along the corridor, passed through the ascending stairs, and reached the ground.
Lin Chichi glanced at the two young women holding hands beside him, put his hands behind his back, walked half a step behind, and carefully followed his two companions on the sidewalk covered with scattered green shades.
call--
There seemed to be some kind of roaring and harsh sound in the sky.
She looked up subconsciously and vaguely saw a black light streaking across the white clouds and blue sky.
"Chichi, what's wrong?"
The woman in front took a few steps forward, then turned back and looked at Lin Chichi.
"The sound was very loud just now, as if something passed from the sky."
Lin Chichi still looked up at the sky.
"A shooting star? Is there one?"
The two young women also looked up to the sky and looked around.
But they saw nothing in their field of vision except the blazing sun, the clear sky and the scattered white clouds.
"Are there any shooting stars today?"
The woman on the left took out her mobile phone, pointed her finger on the screen with a delicate manicure, and quickly searched, "It doesn't seem to be available."
Then she shook her phone and looked at Lin Chichi, "We didn't hear anything just now. Chichi, did you see it wrong?"
"Maybe it's the TV station's aerial photography helicopter?"
The woman on the right also looked at Lin Chichi and guessed.
"may be?"
Lin Chichi also looked back with some doubts, and she quickly followed the pace of the two companions in front of her.
"Chichi is a little absent-minded today."
The woman on the left looked at the girl following her and said with a smile, "Where are we going to play later?"
"Let's go catch dolls. There is a new game arcade near my house. Buy twenty coins and get twenty free."
The woman on the right looked at the woman on the left and suggested.
"I remembered that I have something to do at home, so I might have to go home first."
Lin Chichi, who was half a body behind the two of them, suddenly spoke.
"Okay, go and get busy."
The woman on the right and Lin Chichi said with a smile.
"Goodbye."
The woman on the left also waved to Lin Chichi.
"Bye-Bye."
Lin Chichi also raised his hand and said goodbye to the two of them with a smile.
Then she stood under the shade of the tree and watched the two holding hands, talking and laughing towards the end under the sky.
This world is so quiet, ordinary and normal.
After a brief pause, she withdrew her gaze, glanced up at the sky, and ran towards the direction where the black light fell.
The fluttering floral skirt pulled up the skirt in the wind, the fluffy strands of hair undulated with the running pace, and the girl's smooth and smooth legs that crossed quickly reflected the gleaming light in the bright sunlight.
After crossing several zebra crossings and almost hitting several vehicles leaving the parking lot, the girl finally arrived at a tree-lined park out of breath.
The rapid heartbeat beat against her chest, and glistening sweat seeped down her fair skin.
She stopped, put her hands on her knees, panted rapidly, raised her head, and looked forward.
In the center of the entire park is a small circular flower platform.
At this moment, on top of the flower stand, a large dark metal box was inserted diagonally into the flower stand.
People were coming and going around, but no one seemed to notice this huge metal box.
Lin Chichi took a few deep breaths to slow down her breathing, then moved forward step by step until she reached the circular flower stand.
She slowly raised her calf, crossed the edge of the flower bed, walked into the flower bed, and walked to the metal box.
This metal box is roughly in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, completely black, and inserted vertically downward into the flower bed.
Overall, this metal box seems a bit like a 'coffin'?
A black coffin falling from the sky?
During a brief period of thought, Lin Chichi looked carefully at the 'coffin' in front of her. She vaguely saw fine yellow lines on the black outer layer of the coffin.
These lines are intertwined and embedded in the black surface, which is mysterious, complex, profound and far-reaching.
The girl stared at the coffin in front of her, as if staring at the vast, deep and endless void of the universe.
Some kind of deep attraction came from the depths of the coffin and reached the depths of the girl's soul.
She vaguely felt that there was something 'close' to her on this coffin, but she could not recall where this feeling came from.
She gently stretched out her hand and touched the surface of the coffin.
The deep yellow lines flashed under the black surface, and some vast and distant song echoed in her ears.
"Sacrifice···Gift···"
She jerked her hand back as if she was electrocuted, staring blankly at the coffin in front of her.
She took two steps back, stepped out of the flower bed, and stepped on the ground.
Until this moment, the people around her didn't seem to notice her, but their eyes simply glanced at the girl, and then continued their pace.
Lin Chi Chi stared blankly at the coffin in front of her, the distant and holy singing still echoing in her ears.
She lowered her head and glanced at her fingertips. The white fingers were stained with a little dark color, which quickly disappeared into her white skin.
She raised her head and stared at the coffin in front of her again.
The coffin standing calmly in the flower bed was like a closed door, standing in front of her at this moment, waiting for her to open it.
The girl's heart was beating rapidly, but she couldn't seem to tell whether it was because of the violent exercise just now or because of some silent throbbing.
That ordinary and ordinary memory seemed to have some kind of ripples.
The bright sunlight shone on her hands, which seemed a little cold.
She took a deep breath and took a few steps back.
Jingle Bell--
The crisp ringtone of her mobile phone rang from the small satchel she carried.
She took out her phone, glanced at the screen, and quickly answered the call, "Dad, come on, come on, I'll be right back. You know, I'm not a child anymore."
She hung up the phone and looked up.
The sky is blue and the white clouds are scattered.
The cool breeze blew the green leaves, holding up the long floral skirt.
The girl took one last look at the coffin standing quietly in the center of the flower bed, then turned and ran out of the park.
