"Stop the boat!" Xiang Mubai said coldly.

The ferryman did not do so. She only said: "If you stop the boat in this area, you will be discovered by them soon. I can't let you fall into their hands."

However, Xiang Mubai didn't appreciate it. He stood up suddenly and the boat swayed twice.

The black hole's gun was pointed at the ferryman, and Xiang Mubai repeated: "Stop the boat!"

When Hanako saw this, she wanted to stop her, but Liu Ping held her hand and signaled her not to speak.

The ferryman looked at Xiang Mubai silently, and then asked: "Xiang Mubai, what did Gaoqiao Yinsi allow you to make you so devoted to him?"

Xiang Mubai was stunned. He didn't expect that the ferryman would suddenly say such a word out of the blue.

The same goes for Liu Ping, who is now even more suspicious of the ferryman's identity and true intentions.

"Who are you?" Xiang Mubai opened the weapon safety lock.

The ferryman was unmoved. She looked at Liu Ping again and said, "Liu Ping, isn't it hard to be reduced to a lost dog?"

Liu Ping trembled when he heard this, and said in a cold voice: "It has nothing to do with you whether you feel good or bad, I just want to see your true face now!"

As he spoke, Liu Ping also stood up and looked like he was about to take action.

Hanako was really anxious at this time.

One second ago, the people on the boat were calm and peaceful, but in the blink of an eye, they were at war with each other.

Although Hanako was curious about the ferryman's true identity after hearing these two words from the ferryman... But now...

"Wait! Can you please stop arguing? We are all in the same boat now, can't you just calm down?"

"Calm down? Huh, girl, don't be deceived by this girl. How can there be any unreasonable kindness in this world! Right, Youye?" Xiang Mubai now completely doesn't believe the ferryman.

The ferryman ignored him, but looked at Hanako and said: "Hanako, no matter what happens, don't leave this ship. Only in this way can you survive."

Hanako was startled when he heard this and didn't understand what the ferryman meant.

Liu Ping was already losing his temper. He took a step forward and approached the ferryman and said, "Girl, I'm sorry for the offence." He then started to take off the gray cloth shirt that the ferryman put on his head.

The ferryman didn't move, and Xiang Mubai's gun kept pointing at her.

As for Hanako, she could only stare from the sidelines.

Seeing that Liu Ping's hand was about to touch the gray cloth shirt that the ferryman put on his head, the ferryman said softly: "If you die, wouldn't those hidden mimicry crystals be wasted?"

Liu Ping froze when he heard this. He looked at the ferryman in front of him in shock.

"Also...if Hanako knew that you caused the accident in Vault 03, do you think she would forgive you?" The ferryman's voice was very soft.

But every word pierced deeply into Liu Ping's heart.

He stopped, he hesitated, he was afraid.

Xiang Mubai saw that Liu Ping had not yet taken off the ferryman's mask, so he stepped forward and said: "Get out of here, you whimpering one!"

But before he could reach the ferryman, the ferryman said: "Don't be stupid, Xiang Mubai, the miracle that happened to Gao Qiao Yinsi will not happen again to your wife. It is unique.

, you don’t really think he will fulfill his promise before the sun rises, do you?”

Liu Ping was shocked when he heard this, and turned back to look at Xiang Mubai.

Xiang Mubai was also stunned.

Then he came over angrily and clamped the ferryman's neck: "Sir, you won't lie to me! Don't think that just because you know a lot, you can drive a wedge between me and you! Now, let me see your true face!

"

As Xiang Mubai was about to take off the ferryman's hood, Liu Ping suddenly came to stop him.

"Wait! Don't be so impulsive?"

Xiang Mubai was stunned, probably not expecting Liu Ping to suddenly switch sides, but he was only stunned for a second, and he easily pushed Liu Ping away.

"roll!"

Then he pulled with his big hand, and the ferryman's hood was torn off.

But……

When Xiang Mubai saw the ferryman's true appearance, his originally angry face was instantly filled with shock and uneasiness.

Even his mechanical heart, which had long lost human emotions, twitched violently.

The ferryman looked at Xiang Mubai calmly and said, "Are you satisfied?"

Hanako helped Liu Ping, who had fallen on the boat, and both of them were curious about the true appearance of the ferryman.

"Who is she?" Liu Ping asked uneasily.

But who would have thought that after hearing this, Xiang Mubai hurriedly released his left hand holding the ferryman as if he had seen a ghost, and at the same time put the gray cloth in his right hand over the ferryman's head.

"I didn't... didn't see clearly..."

"Huh?" Liu Ping and Hanako were stunned. How could this be possible? Can't see clearly at such a close distance?

But Xiang Mubai would rather not see the ferryman's true appearance.

He bent over like a frightened child and carefully retreated to Liu Ping and Hanako.

The ferryman who put on her headgear again was not angry because of Xiang Mubai and Liu Ping's previous rudeness. She said calmly: "The world has changed. 'The Sun Disappears' is just turning off the lights before the show starts. The curtain opens."

When the protagonist comes on stage, you are lucky enough to be witnesses of this great moment, cherish it..."

Hanako stared blankly at the ferryman. From this thin figure, she saw fatigue, confusion and uneasiness, and she also saw the transcendent perseverance that was like a candlelight that was swaying in the storm but never willing to be extinguished.

How could she know so many secrets about the three of them?

How many years has she wandered alone in this land of the past?

In the end she...

who is it?!

With such doubts, Hanako asked: "Excuse me...have we...ever met?"

Hearing such a question, Xiang Mubai shrank subconsciously. This behavior was very inconsistent with his burly figure, but Liu Ping was not in the mood to laugh at him, and he himself fell into confusion and confusion.

He raised his head uneasily.

The ferryman said softly: "No."

The moment she got the answer, Hanako was disappointed.

She sat down blankly and fell into a long silence.

The boat continued to move forward, and soon the water became turbulent, and the proud voice from the Creator became stronger in my ears.

When Hanako turned around, the surrounding wreckage became fewer and fewer, and the water became more and more open.

Darkness still exists all around, but it is no longer as cold as before. At this time, it is just a tone, not a rejection and rejection.

Continuing forward, the ferryman pointed to a giant exploration ship in the distance: "Look over there, that's my home. Do you want to have a drink before jumping off the waterfall?"

Neither Xiang Mubai nor Liu Ping responded. Huazi glanced at them and raised her hand: "I want to drink a glass of boiled water."

"Okay." The ferryman was delighted. She changed the course and let the small boat approach the giant exploration ship.

Ten minutes later, the three of them boarded the ship.

The exploration ship that has been parked here for an unknown number of years appears to be very old and rusty in many places. It feels like it will be destroyed by the current at any time.

But overall the boat is very clean.

As soon as Hanako got on the boat, she felt the breath of time coming to her face. The equipment was quite old, and many of the objects may only be seen in museums.

Hanako followed the ferryman to her room in the cockpit, where she saw cans all over the floor.

But there were only canned fish and canned peaches, which were spread neatly on the floor and stacked several layers.

Hanako asked the ferryman: "How long have you lived here?"

The ferryman found the kettle and started to boil water. She thought for a while and said: "I forgot...it must have been decades..."

"How many decades?!" Hanako was shocked, but the figure of the ferryman in front of him didn't look like an old man who had lived here for decades.

At this time, Liu Ping, who was behind Hanako, noticed a poster in the corner of the room.

After he walked over and looked at it for a few times, his eyes changed, and he quietly tore off a corner of the poster and hid it on his body.

Xiang Mubai refused to come in. He sat on the bedside and looked at the very clear blue trace in the distance.

That was the edge of the waterfall, and crossing it to the blue was a long fall. He couldn't imagine what kind of experience he would feel after jumping... This was not skydiving...

"Well, are you surprised that I'm still so young?" The ferryman put the photo frame on the table as he passed by the bed.

Hanako saw it, but she didn't speak.

"Well... I'm a little concerned."

The ferryman took out tea and coffee from the refrigerator, and when she returned to the kettle, she said: "This is why people love and hate this place..."

"Huh?" Hanako didn't understand.

"Here, you can stay young forever and never have to worry about getting old or ugly. Of course... besides that, you have lost almost everything... such as friends... dreams and so on..." the ferryman said
