Mantenos dipped the water in the cup, drew a zigzag line on the table, and marked several landmarks: "This is the general direction of the river. Where is the place where you threw the corpse?"

Rona put the cup on the upper end of the curve: "It's almost here."

Then Mantenos also drew a cross at the lower end of the curve: "This is my casino, do you remember when you were a dead body?"

"It's about 6 o'clock in the evening..."

Mantenos sat down on the chair by the table, and slowly concluded.

"So what happened was that Will seduced Asia, and Kelly took the responsibility for him. After Marriage, Will abused Asia with Rona. Officer Lake refused to save her, and repeatedly prevented Asia from calling the police. At 6 o'clock in the evening on the day of the incident, Assia secretly wore Rona's skirt. Rona beat her to death when she got angry, and then sank into the river with Kelly's corpse, but Assia broke free and floated into the river. In the town center, she got those five chips from nowhere, and she came to my casino to exchange them. I drove her out of the casino at around 10 o'clock in the evening. She lay on the back street of the casino for an hour, and then was injured by Bonn and the captain. , they dragged her into the car again to freeze to death, sold the body to Monroe a dozen days later to pretend to be his wife - each of us contributed directly or indirectly to her death, which is why we were targeted. "

After Mantenos finished speaking, he looked at Tang Sisi.

"Only you have nothing to do with this case. Who are you? Is your name really Jenny? And as an employee of the resort island, you must have access to the passenger system. If you want to arrange for us to board the same ship, it is not Can't do it at all?"

Tang Sisi has already moved to the door calmly. The people in the room must have been hungry for several days, and their physical strength must be weaker than hers. As long as she can run to the first deck, she can jump into the sea from there.

She calculated the distance between the two sides and felt that she could fight, so she turned around and ran towards the corridor.Her speed is indeed very fast, Mantenos and Will are at least five or six meters behind her.Seeing that victory was in sight, she leaped five steps to the exit of the first deck, but hit the door with a bang.

These goddamn guys!Locked the door before going upstairs!

Tang Sisi didn't have time to think about it, so she turned around and jumped into the bottom cabin. After getting into the utility room, she immediately put a box against the door bolt.

Will and his party arrived later, kicking the gate one after another.Tang Sisi didn't care what the people outside scolded. She quickly found a wrench and began to slam on the floor.

The thumb-thick hinge was gradually distorted by external forces, and when it was about to break, there was a harsh scratching sound from the bottom of the boat, as if someone was tearing the iron sheet with pliers. At the sound, the bow of the boat tilted downward, and then the hull refused to turn back. sloped into the sea.

The seawater rushed in and quickly flooded the bilge. After the few people at the door were dispersed, the fragile door was blasted.

Tang Sisi, who was blocked by the turbulence at the bottom of the bilge, struggled desperately, but her right arm, which was tangled up in a ball, could not move. She rolled into a ball with the load of sundries like a rag doll in a washing machine.

In a critical moment, someone suddenly hugged her close, Tang Sisi put his arms around the shoulders of the visitor, and was obediently led away from the ship.

Shen Ming floated out of the sea with Tang Sisi in his arms.

Under the bright moon, a ship more than ten meters long was turned upside down on the sea surface, and the bottom of the steel-cast ship split a five-meter-long gap as if being split by an axe. Shen Ming's tail fin was shining like a blade...

Then one after another the mermaids floated to the surface of the sea and sent the other drowning people to the rocks. These bewildered people didn't know that they had become slaves to collect wealth for the mermaids.

Tang Sisi said to Shen Ming, "Let's go."

Shen Ming flicked the fish's tail and jumped away from the reef area. At this moment, the Big Dipper was hanging high, and Tang Sisi realized that this was not the direction to land.

She untied the bandage on her arm casually: "Where are we going?"

"Look at the stars."

The moonlight spread like a piece of sparkling jade flakes, the silver flying fish jumped out of the water, gliding joyfully in the air, the fluorescent blue small fish gathered to form a lake in the sea, sometimes they were divided into two groups by the big fish, but soon merged into one again one.

Shen Ming floated on his back, the mermaid's silk-like soft and stretched tail fins swayed leisurely, at a leisurely pace, while Tang Sisi was hugged in his arms.

A group of huge whales swam past them, and then surfaced not far ahead, making long moans.

Tang Sisi stares at the sky in the whale fountain.

The Milky Way on the sea is clearer, and the stars are as bright as the eyes of a girl, and every twinkle is full of tenderness.

A dazzling shooting star dragged its long tail across the middle sky, and extinguished at the end of the sea. Then one after another, countless rays of light fell suddenly, and the sky was full of stars like rain, and the Milky Way poured down.

Tang Sisi had never seen such a spectacular celestial phenomenon, she raised her hand and pointed upwards: "What constellation meteor shower is that?"

Shen Ming breathed in her ear: "Meteor showers don't have this density, it's a comet that was torn apart by the gravity of the earth."

"I saw the Leonid meteor shower when I was a kid and thought it would be amazing."

Shen Ming held her hand and raised it to the sky, pointing to the left: "This is the constellation Leo." Then he stretched out his index finger and pointed to each one, "The brightest star is α Leo, which represents the heart of a lion. You just need to find it You can find the constellation Leo, this one is Beta Leo, and then Gamma Leo..." He held her hand and traced the outline of a lion in the sky, "See it?"

"Not very lion-like, either."

"Then I can add a few more stars..."

Tang Sisi hurriedly refused: "No need, it's fine."

She doesn't want to think about whether this meteor shower is just a coincidence, or a costly custom-made fireworks. Since she dare not face the question, don't pursue the answer.She suddenly realized that there were no secrets in front of her in this world, as long as she wanted, she could know everything.

Tang Sisi asked, "Where is the center of the universe?"

Shen Ming's fingers swiped across the sky: "The earth is moving, the solar system is moving, and the Orion's spiral arm is also moving. Of course, the center of the universe is also moving non-stop. The trajectory of the three-dimensional center of the universe is like this."

"What's there?"

"Well, I haven't set up this world yet, but there is a pour-over coffee pot in the center of your three-dimensional universe."

Tang Sisi almost fell into the water: "What did you say?"

"I put a pour over coffee pot in the center of your universe. When intelligent life gets there one day, how interesting will their conversation be? 'What is the center of the universe, explorer?' Report! The center of the universe is a pour over Coffee pot!''Please say again, what is the center of the universe?''That's right, the center of the universe is an iron pour over coffee pot with a scale of 350ml.'"

Tang Sisi never expected Shen Ming to have such a sense of humor: "You want them to discover you?"

"I'm just thinking about it. Before intelligent creatures arrive at the center of the universe, I will take the pot away and use it to make a cup of coffee. While drinking, I will watch the live broadcast of the center of the universe—do you want to drink coffee with me?"

Tang Sisi didn't answer, she hugged Shen Ming's arm and said, "I just want to hear the mermaid's singing again."

At dawn, Tang Sisi was shaken awake by Shen Ming, and found that she had been sent ashore. Behind her was a navigation lighthouse with huge boulders, and a road was built behind the lighthouse.Shen Ming dived into the water below his chest, propped his chin with his left elbow on the rock, and was blinking at her.

Tang Sisi looked around: "What kind of place is this?"

"The east coast of the United States, Arizona, you can walk along this road to the left for 10 minutes, and you will see a tourist town." Then Shen Ming tied a strand of hair around her wrist, "Have you heard of mermaids?" singing, you will yearn to die in the deep sea, only the breath of the mermaid can appease the cursed soul, don’t let it leave you for too long.”

Tang Sisi leaned over and kissed his forehead: "See you later."

Following Shen Ming's instructions, she came to the tourist town and first found an antique shop to sell gold coins for a lot of money.

Assia didn't know where Jenny was sent, and it was impossible to visit the streets and towns to find her daughter. Jenny was sent away since she was a child, and she had no impression of Assia. The only intersection they had was hereditary finger deformities, so the two Being able to meet each other is likely to be a genetic match at a family-finding agency. Thinking of this, Tang Si decided to take a bus to the office of a local voluntary family-finding agency.

She made up the identity of a vagrant to deceive the staff of the voluntary agency, and asked the other party to help find a 40-45-year-old in the national network system, who lives in Haifeng Town, has registered the need to find girls, and has the same heredity as herself Female with deformed features of fingers.

The other party tapped the keyboard a few times, and sure enough, Assia's registration record was called up.

"What's the matter? Your matching information is already in the system." The staff glanced at Tang Sisi, then at the photo on the screen, "You are Miss Jessica, right? We gave Assia four years ago When I registered, I found out that you have similar genetic characteristics, so have you told her your mailing address and phone number? The return visit record shows that you have been successfully contacted. "

Tang Sisi glanced at the screen, memorized Jessica's address and ran out: "I drank a little too much tonight, sorry to bother you!"

"Hey! Miss! Miss!" The staff was taken aback by her, "What's going on?"

Tang Sisi went straight to the bus station and rushed to Jenny—or Jessica's residence.

After half a day of bumpy driving, she finally came to Jenny's apartment in a city in a neighboring state.

As soon as she entered the building, the neighbor who had just stepped out of the elevator greeted her warmly. The apartment manager also lent her the spare key without doubting her excuse of losing the key.

Tang Sisi turned the key and opened the door to come in. She sighed first, all the things in the house were put into the box, the water and electricity gates were also safely closed, the refrigerator and the kitchen were all emptied, it seems that the owner has already done it before. Preparations for a long trip.

As soon as she entered the door, she sensed the existence of the soul exchange item, and took out an old mobile phone from the drawer in the living room, which sealed Jenny's soul.

The memory of the mobile phone is not large, and the useless files have been cleaned up by the owner. Only the text messages and call records with an anonymous number are kept on purpose. I also know that this anonymous number must be Asia.

August 2015, 8: Hi, I got your number from a family tracing agency, can you text me back?

August 2015, 8: They were all at home over the weekend, and I dare not take your call.

August 2015, 8: Today they almost found me hiding a cell phone.

September 2015, 9: He said that after I gave Lorna a surrogate, I could get a divorce.

October 2015, 10: I would love to meet you too.

November 2015, 11: I would love to meet you too

……

Asiya said in the text message that she had exhausted all her courage to steal the phone from her nephew. She dared not make phone calls at home, so the two mainly communicated by text message, and the time of sending letters was 12 in the middle of the night. later.

Jenny soon discovers that Asia is mentally retarded and has endured unimaginable levels of domestic violence.Assia told Jenny that once Will and Kelly chatted drunk, Will himself admitted that Kelly had taken the charge for him, but she dared not call the police, not only because the case had passed the statute of limitations, but also because the police would tell Kelly the content of the report , causing her to be beaten, everyone in this town is in the same gang.

Jenny, who grew up in an orphanage, was very envious of the warmth of her family, and repeatedly persuaded Assia to leave that place. She could even go to Haifeng Town to pick her up in person, but Assia never had the courage to nod her head in agreement.

The two chatted like this for more than a year.

On October 2016, 10, Jenny sent a text message to Asiya: I have a minor operation tomorrow, and I won’t turn on the phone for two days, don’t worry.

On October 2016, 10, during Jenny's surgery, Asia sent her a series of text messages.

10:00: I want to be with you.

19:10: I borrowed a beautiful red dress from Lorna, and she said that it is a classic JM dress, which is very valuable.

22:01: Lorna doesn't like me touching her skirt, they pushed me into the river just now, I'm soaked, but the phone is waterproof.

22:02: I'm walking towards the light, there's a dead person under the big green rock, with a lot of chips next to her.

22:10: I don't know where I am, can you pick me up?

23:30: The Chipmunk Casino said the 5 chips were worth $500 each, so they took them away, but it’s okay, some kind people have already given me a ride, but it’s so cold in the car.

00:10: It's so cold in the car, they don't listen to me, what should I do?

00:20: I am very cold, the compartment is so dark, I am a little scared.

00:42: It's too cold.

So much for mobile content.

When Asiya was struggling, Jenny was undergoing surgery in the operating room. When she finished anesthesia and turned on her mobile phone, it was too late.

Later, Jenny used the text message records as clues to find out all the people who had hurt Assia. She waited patiently for an opportunity, and finally gathered these people on the same boat, and carefully laid traps to make them carry fear and regret to death.It's a pity that all this didn't go as she wished.

Tang Sisi anonymously reported the location of Mrs. Monroe's body to the police, then turned on the TV, and spent the last time braiding the strands of hair Shen Ming had left her into a bracelet.

The TV was tuned to the Arizona State Channel, and the reporter introduced: "Several tourists on the LP-898 ferry that disappeared a few days ago were found on the beach. Melody, the six people have been forcibly taken into custody at present, and experts judged that they were severely stimulated and suffered from severe schizophrenia, and we will report this incident in detail..." Only Tang Sisi knew that from then on, in every night dream, they I can't get rid of the soul-stirring singing.

Tang Sisi put on the newly made bracelet, and created a new note with the mobile phone that was exchanged for her soul: the grudge is over, don't pursue it anymore, wearing this bracelet, you will not become like them.

She cut her fingertips, blood stained the phone, and a warm light appeared in front of her eyes again...

The author has something to say:

Ordinary domineering CEO: I want to set off millions of fireworks for you!

Overbearing Sand Sculpture CEO: I want to drop ten atomic bombs on you!

Teacher Shen: Let me show you a tear-up comet.
