This was the first time Lin Sanjiu encountered such a situation ever since she boarded the train from Kisaragi Station.
Their surroundings were deathly silent. Rena and Rena could hear the siblings breathing very clearly. Occasionally, the fluorescent lights would pop. In this deathly silence, the sound was as loud as a clap of thunder. It was pitch-black outside the train window. Their pale reflections were reflected in the darkness. There was no station outside, no scenery, not even a speck of light. Even the light from the train was swallowed by the darkness. It seemed that the train had suddenly stopped moving when it was passing through a tunnel.
Rena and Rena looked at each other. None of them knew what to do.
"But... we haven't reached the station yet, right?" Rena stood up, puzzled. She looked at the route map above the train and mumbled to herself.
Even though train routes were ever-changing, there was one thing that was certain. The next station on the route map would not change.
Logically speaking, the train should stop at "Beluga Marine Park Station".
"Have you guys heard of such a thing before?" Lin Sanjiu wrote. Her entire body was now the color of her internal organs and muscles. The words that formed in the air were like words written in blood, and they even looked a little bloody. It looked a little scary.
"No," Reno said hesitantly. "There isn't much information about Kisaragi Station. We gathered all the information from the people who came to Kisaragi Station and came up with a plan to deal with it. No one mentioned the phenomenon of the train suddenly stopping."
"All the information from the people who have been to Kisaragi Station?"
Lin Sanjiu immediately pictured a group of people surrounding the siblings, fighting to provide them with information. A thought flashed through her mind. "Progressor Alliance must be very powerful to be able to mobilize resources like this, right?"
However, now was not the time to think about that. She suppressed the sudden urge to let her mind wander off to somewhere else. She stood up and surveyed her surroundings.
Even though Rena was usually very afraid of Lin Sanjiu, she still followed behind her obediently during critical moments. She reached out and knocked on the window. When she saw that there was still no movement outside, she asked, "The train stopped just when we said we were going to get off. Maybe we should get off here."
Rena's words were 80% self-comforting. However, based on the current situation, it seemed like there was no other way than to get out of the car.
"It's okay. We can basically see all the duoluozhong in Kisaragi Station. There won't be any danger. "Reno tried to cheer his sister up. It was unknown who he was actually trying to comfort.
When Lin Sanjiu heard that, she couldn't help sighing.
Although the siblings had recovered from their injuries and had changed into their spare clothes, which had been crumpled up in Reno's backpack all this time, there was one thing that they didn't mention.
In the residential building. The siblings had been seriously corroded by dark matter.
Lin Sanjiu was killed by a sudden attack from a duoluozhong when her body was almost completely eroded. With Lin Sanjiu looking after them and the fact that they could see spirits, the two kids wouldn't be ambushed by the duoluozhong. However, no one knew what they should be careful of or what the consequences would be if they dragged their almost completely eroded bodies around.
There was no mention of this in the information that the siblings had gathered. When they thought about it carefully, they realized that it was actually quite reasonable. Most people who were eroded by dark matter were already dead. Naturally, they wouldn't be able to return to Red Nautilus to provide them with any information.
"Be careful, both of you." As the siblings walked towards the door, a voice rang out. Lin Sanjiu quickly wrote.
Rena couldn't help turning her head away when she saw Reno's words, which were full of concern, floating in the air.
"Got it," Reno replied nonchalantly. "How dare you provoke me! Hmph!"
Reno's injuries had just recovered a little and the scabs on his wounds had yet to recede. However, Reno was already acting like an arrogant newborn calf.
"It's good to be young …" Lin Sanjiu stood at the side and watched as the siblings worked together to pry open a gap that could only allow one person to pass through.
With the help of the light from inside the car, the ground outside was dimly illuminated. Lin Sanjiu could vaguely see the train tracks and the walls of the tunnel. Without hesitation, Lin Sanjiu was the first to get out of the train. She circled around the door twice cautiously. When she saw that nothing was out of place, she turned around and waved at the siblings inside the train.
The tunnel was so quiet that they couldn't even see their own fingers.
If not for the faint white light coming from the windows, Lin Sanjiu would not have been able to see the body of the train gradually turning from bright to dark and disappearing into the darkness. They couldn't even see the front of the train anymore. However, the headlights were dim. It was as if the entire train was silent.
"Which way should we go?" Rena asked as she looked around.
It seemed like it didn't matter which direction they chose.
The siblings played rock-paper-scissors and quickly decided on the direction they should go. They were heading toward the back of the train. According to Reno, "We stopped the car not long after we entered the tunnel. If we go back, we will definitely be able to get out of the tunnel! "
This was the first time things went according to plan ever since they entered Kisaragi Station. After they walked on the tracks for about ten minutes, they saw a faint light in front of them.
"What did I say?!" When Reno, who was leading the way, saw the light, he immediately turned around and shouted excitedly, "After we get out of here, we can go wherever we want!"
Rena was annoyed by her brother's cocky attitude. She responded perfunctorily and quickened her pace. She called out to Lin Sanjiu, who was at the back, "Hurry up. It's very dark here …"
However, Lin Sanjiu suddenly stopped.
Her higher consciousness could scan a wide or small area. The largest area she could scan was a few thousand meters. The smallest area she could scan was a few dozen meters. Hence, she could see everything clearly in her mind even if the siblings couldn't see it.
Lin Sanjiu took another look at her higher consciousness scan. After she confirmed that she wasn't seeing things, she quickly picked up a piece of gravel from the ground and smashed it against the tracks.
The loud smashing sound reverberated through the tunnel. The siblings immediately braked and turned around cautiously. When they saw that Lin Sanjiu was the only one behind them, holding the rock in her hand, they heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, they couldn't help feeling confused.
"Why did you stop?" Rena asked.
Lin Sanjiu, who had half of her muscles and half of her internal organs, raised her bright red arm and wrote a line of words in the air.
"There's someone over there." (To be continued)
