Chapter 4 New Home, New Environment

Lan Ximo has heard that this is an urban area near the sea...

There is nothing special about this place, but...the sea near Haibin City has been circulating many legends.

It is said that there is a small island on the other side of the sea. These stories come from the mouths of neighbors in the neighborhood, and they only hear some scattered content.

Lan Ximo has long been curious about this place. She has lived in the same place since she was a child, and she has some expectations for the outside world.

But I don't know why grandpa keeps silent about the story of the sea and the island, whenever he is asked, he always avoids it deliberately.

-

Holding a piece of dry bread in one hand and a map in the other, Lan Ximo's current location is still one hundred and eight thousand miles away from her destination, and she may not be able to arrive if she continues walking until it gets dark.

With an idea, I stood on the side of the road and raised my thumb up on the side of the road.

A large truck slowly stopped at her feet.

"Little girl, do you want a ride? Where are you going?" The window rolled down.

The driver is an old man with an embarrassing face.

"I... that... Haibin City, are you on the way?" Lan Ximo hesitated.

She handed the map in her hand to the driver, and stood petitely beside the huge truck and waited quietly.

"Come on, I'll take you there."

Opening the door of the truck's co-pilot, Lan Ximo nimbly jumped onto it.

Bumpy all the way, from a barren countryside to a bustling street.

The sea gradually came into Lan Ximo's sight, and now it was the sun, and the beach was full of people's voices, the reflection of the sun made the sea surface seem to be sprinkled with crystal diamonds.

Lan Ximo's eyes straightened: "What kind of place is this!"

The driver quickly skipped out of the window: "Dust Mud Bay, there is a beautiful legend of the sea monster here! A little further on is Haibin City, what are you... planning to arrange?"

After entering the urban area, the driver on the road couldn't help her anymore. After bidding farewell to this kind old man, Lan Ximo searched for her destination alone.

The note directed her to an ordinary apartment building, and the buildings towered into the sky as far as the eye could see.

"Where is the new home..." Lan Ximo put her hands over her eyes and looked up at the building.

Rubbing the paper with her little hands, she worked hard to "calculate" the house number, her eyes were almost glued to the paper.

"sparkling!"

A hand patted Lan Ximo's back without light or heavy.

She turned her head in surprise, and looked down to see a little guy with two little girls with twin ponytails tied in cherry hairbands.

The child grinned and pointed at Lan Ximo's hair: "My sister's hair is shining!"

"Eh?" Lan Ximo grabbed the end of her hair, it was indeed as dazzling as the girl said...

A woman came from a distance: "Sorry, the child has caused you trouble!"

She scanned Lan Ximo up and down, was very dissatisfied with her blue hair, rolled her eyes, and pulled her daughter to leave the scene quickly.

"That... do you know this place?" Lan Ximo caught up with them.

Even though she knew that the person in front of her had opinions on her, she had to learn to swallow her anger in this unfamiliar place.

Holding the note in front of her with both hands...

The woman just glanced at it hastily: "If you know the number of the building, then ask the administrator. It's the small pavilion over there. There is one downstairs in every apartment building."

Before he finished speaking, he picked up the child and walked quickly to the nearby park.

Surrounded by high-rise buildings, Lan Ximo looked very small and was at a loss for a moment. This place... gave her an unprecedented sense of suffocation.
