Su Wan's body trembled, causing her sister's blush to have a more annoyed color.

"Eat now, or it will get cold."

Su Wan knocked on the dish and picked up the bowl and chopsticks.

"Ah."

Luo Ling lowered his head and ate his meal slowly this time.

"By the way, I feel like Miss Cen seems to be interested in you."

"...Um?"

"My sister doesn't object. She's a nice person and she's rich..."

"what?"

"Don't you understand? Then you are still a child."

"..."

The silent, embarrassed girl and the smiling older woman, the dinner ended under the last rays of the setting sun.

......

The next day.

Unexpectedly, it was not only Cen Xiangyun who visited Luo Ling's house today, but also a few unexpected guys.

Needless to say, Li Shaoheng originally came here to protect Su Wan as she left. Before they reached their destination, the evil pioneers might take action.

As for Jiangcheng County...it doesn't matter even if Li Shaoheng leaves, the company's reinforcements have arrived, and several P7 specialists are working together seamlessly. Even though it is difficult to save the lives of artists and scientists, the other party can't do anything about it.

In addition, Luo Ling actually met a few old acquaintances... Of course, they were not very familiar with Luo Ling now.

——Anyu and Elsa.

After the Baiyan Village incident, An Yu suffered severe heartache and has not yet fully recovered from it.

Elsa has an unclear relationship with the scientists, and she must not stay in Jiangcheng County to confront them at this moment.

Therefore, they will go to the company branch with their sister and temporarily leave this place of trouble.

"Senior? It's you..."

When An Yu saw Luo Ling, she was obviously surprised.

She didn't expect that her companions on this trip would be her senior schoolmate and her sister whom she had met a few times...

Luo Ling nodded to her without saying a word.

Perhaps An Yu also knew that some things should not be said, so she closed her mouth, but her eyes continued to wander between Luo Ling and Su Wan.

Elsa never liked speaking in front of a lot of people. She obviously didn't recognize Luo Ling, but she felt inexplicably familiar with him, with a little confusion.

The little bear Xiao Beila in her arms seemed to recognize her, but was not sure. There was a hint of suspicion in her buttoned eyes.

"They were all asked by the local awakening organization to take refuge with us, so it should be okay for them to go with Sister Su Wan, right?" Cen Xiangyun whispered in Luo Ling's ear.

"As you wish."

Luo Ling nodded slightly.

But at this time, some guesses had already arisen in her heart.

An Yu and Elsa were deliberately sent away. Could it be that the company and the communication group were up to something big?

But there were very few messages in the group, and it didn't seem like there would be any big moves.

But then again, particularly important matters were rarely discussed through group chat messages. All meetings were held in Ward Zero, which seemed to have some kind of isolation effect.

As for the White Witch...

During this period, the communication group seemed to have forgotten the existence of this person. Only Elsa would occasionally send private messages to inquire about the situation - it was rare to have a friend who could communicate on the communication software, and Elsa cherished it very much.

She can't type, and her voice has a strange magic, so the most she can do in the group is send emoticons.

The two girls were still a little wary, but Su Wan walked up to them and greeted them openly. She also spoke a few more words to An Yu, apparently because she had just called Luo Ling "senior sister".

After a while, these people who were traveling together became familiar with each other. The scene was quite harmonious, and even little Bella was unusually quiet.

"The train will leave in two hours." Li Shaoheng said, "Everyone, check your luggage. If nothing is left behind, we will go to the station."

This middle-aged man, who holds a high position in the "company" and has some friendship with Ji Shinian, looks quite reliable, at least more reliable than his niece, Miss Cen.

Today he drove the car to take everyone to the station. Luo Ling thought that wealthy people like him and Cen Xiangyun should drive luxury cars, but he didn't expect it to be... an eight-seater van.

Looking at the car logo made up of several diamond pieces, and the reliable middle-aged man wearing branded clothes sitting calmly in the driver's seat, Luo Ling had an indescribable sense of disharmony.

It seemed that even Cen Xiangyun felt that it was a bit shabby, and couldn't help but complain to Luo Ling,

"There are several large cars at the branch office, but we came here by train, otherwise we wouldn't have to buy one here."

Li Shaoheng bought this large van as a means of transportation after he came to Jiangcheng County. After all, he had been running around the county investigating things during this period of time. Even as a person with spatial abilities, he did not want to squander his power on transportation.

"Why don't you just drive over here?"

Luo Ling asked doubtfully.

The distance between the two cities is about 200 kilometers, and it takes less than half a day to drive there.

"Uncle Shaoheng wouldn't allow it. He said he couldn't drive a long-distance bus." Cen Xiangyun spread her hands and said, "I can drive, but he kept saying that it's only now, and from now on I will have to take the train like him."

"really weird."

"Yeah, I find it strange too."

The two people sitting at the back of the van were whispering.

After hearing all this, Li Shaoheng just looked up at the rearview mirror without saying a word.

I don’t know if he felt it was unnecessary or he just didn’t want to ruin his image in front of outsiders.

Luo Ling will also go on this journey, and will not return to Jiangcheng County until he is sure that his sister can be protected.

Cen Xiangyun once advised Luo Ling to stay in the company branch with her sister for shelter, but Luo Ling knew that her situation could not allow for any further delay, so she rejected this well-intentioned suggestion.

Luo Ling's home was not far from the station. Considering the traffic lights and a slight traffic jam on the road, it took about half an hour to reach the station.

The train stations in small county towns cannot be compared with those in big cities. There are only a few platforms in total, and the passengers are sparse. The waiting hall is not even half full... After all, it is not a holiday, and it is not the time for students to return to school.

While waiting for the train, Cen Xiangyun and Li Shaoheng were always alert to the surrounding environment, and they left some time for the girls to talk.

Just like before, Elsa just sat there and listened silently. An Yu was a little more curious about Luo Ling and asked her vaguely about the awakeners, but Luo Ling just answered vaguely.

Somehow, the closer it got to departure time, the more irritated Luo Ling felt.

My sister was sitting by the window, staring blankly out the window. I didn't know what she was looking at.

"Woo——"

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, the sound of the whistle came closer and closer, and a snow-white train pulled into the station from afar, and the ticket inspector urged the passengers to get on board.

The group walked into the train in twos and threes. Fortunately, although they were sitting on the train, Li Shaoheng managed to buy a first-class business class ticket, which had much more spacious seats... In fact, at least in terms of money, the company's funding was quite generous, and the only thing they were stingy with was the supplies for the awakened ones.

Everything was new to the girls who were taking the train for the first time. Even Luo Ling couldn't help but look at them curiously. Among the "traveling" people, Su Wan seemed to be the only one who remained calm.

She still looked out the window, saying nothing.

Luo Ling wanted to go over and say something, but she didn't know what to say, so she just sat quietly beside her sister.

"It's okay, we're just separated temporarily."

Luo Ling told herself this in her heart.

So she also followed her sister's example and stared out the window.

The train station is built in a relatively desolate suburb, surrounded by mountains, forests and flying birds. It looks a bit reminiscent of the scenery around Baiyan Village.

But this place is not Baiyan Village, it’s just similar.

Luo Ling watched boredly until the train started moving slowly and the warning whistle sounded again.

Just then, she saw a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye, which startled her so much that her eyes widened and she almost stood up.

"Ji Ying!"

The tall woman who appeared and disappeared in the woods had an unforgettable cold and indifferent expression.

Her mouth opened and closed, as if she was saying something to Luo Ling.

But Luo Ling couldn't hear or see clearly.

She could only stare at the vague figure in the distance, trying to make out something.

But at this moment, her sister's voice rang in her ears.

"Xiao Ling, did you see it?"

Her sister's voice was calm and gentle, but Luo Ling heard a subtle difference from before.

My sister raised her hand and pointed into the distance, which was the direction the train was heading.

"That seems to be the abyss."

Chapter 5: Beyond the Boundary, the Realm of Nothingness (k)

The train slowly moved and a long whistle sounded.

Luo Ling looked towards the distance where her sister was pointing and opened her mouth.

A blue sky.

abyss?

What abyss?

Luo Ling looked at Su Wan suspiciously, but found that her sister's expression revealed some unusual complexity.

Memories, nostalgia, struggle...

But they are all very faint and difficult to detect.

"Sister, did you not rest..."

Luo Ling had only said half of her words when she heard a sharp, piercing cry that seemed to come from the legendary hell and was about to pierce her eardrums.

"Well..."

Luo Ling showed a bit of pain on his face and bent down slightly.

But the people around seemed to have no reaction to the sharp cry. Their looks were filled with confusion and worry. Only Li Shaoheng's pupils shrank slightly when he looked at Luo Ling.

"What's wrong?" Cen Xiangyun came over quickly and took out the motion sickness medicine. "Oh my God, you don't get sick when you're riding a van, but how come you get sick when you're riding a train..."

"It's not motion sickness..."

Luo Ling's face turned a little pale. Her sister next to her gently supported her and she sat up straighter.

"That..."

"fine."

Luo Ling had become accustomed to all kinds of strange things happening to her, and after taking a breath, she felt much more relieved.

But the next moment, she raised her head, and her face turned a little paler.

She finally realized what the abyss her sister had just mentioned was.

The sky, which was clear blue just now, was now stained with a strange dark color for some reason, slowly swallowing something.

The skyline and the distance were all submerged in this bleak darkness with a sense of desolation.

The train whirred forward, along the tracks, heading towards the abyss.

"Ms. Luo Ling, calm down."

Just then, Li Shaoheng next to him came closer and spoke softly.

"But this..."

Luo Ling wanted to say something but stopped herself. Everyone was looking at her with strange eyes, even Cen Xiangyun was no exception.

She looked at her sister as if for help, but her sister just stared blankly out the window, as if gazing at the invisible dark abyss.
