The girl kept stroking her hair nervously, tilted her head slightly, and observed the expression of the young man beside her.

Everything was too weird, and Yi Mian didn't have the heart to appease her, so she brought her in and straight-forwardly asked a few questions about her life experience and origin.

The girls shook their heads one by one, their fingers twitched together, their faces flushed, and it could be seen that she was indeed trying hard to remember.

"I'm sorry... Please believe me, I really don't remember!"

Yi Mian sighed indifferently, he didn't go one step further from the truth, which was also within his expectation.

But he still subconsciously felt that he should help her.

"I remember... leaving."

"what?"

The girl mumbled something quickly, then raised her voice, and looked at him seriously: "I just remember that if there was no matter today, I originally planned to leave here."

"Leave?" Yi Mian repeated the word, inexplicably feeling that this word often appeared in his life, so familiar that it is not an exaggeration to say that it is everyday.

"Where are you leaving?"

"I don't know either." Seeing that he wasn't dissatisfied, the girl was a little happy, and said a few more words boldly, "I mentioned this to other people in the morning, and they all said I was crazy! Said Guo, The king won't allow it..."

When the word "king" was mentioned, she paused and looked at him carefully.

Not only did the king not allow it, he was also inspired to think about the possibility of leaving.

The environment of the town is too strange and dangerous, and everyone wears a mask of respect to hide their true intentions.

After experiencing the execution just now, Yi Mian really didn't want to face them.

"Also, I can feel that... I don't fit in with them! Maybe they're right, I don't really belong here."

The girl walked to the window, as if she wanted to see the other side of the high wall, and stared at it for a long time in vain.

She sighed softly, turned around and wanted to come over, glanced to the side inadvertently, but instantly trembled all over, and fell to the ground.

Yi Mian has been paying attention to her, and when she saw this, she rushed to the window, followed her gaze, and took a deep breath.

I saw one person after another stuck in front of the door on the right side of the glass.

Apart from sticking to him, he couldn't think of a more suitable description. Can a human body really be squeezed so flat?

More than a dozen people twisted together like twists and turns, people piled on top of each other, there was no gap, stretching their necks just to put their ears on the door panel, because the facial features were squeezed out of shape and no expression could be seen.

From the clothes, one could tell at a glance that these were all his guards and subordinates.

The girl opened her eyes and covered her mouth tightly, trying not to let herself scream.

Yi Mian held down her beating heart, and pulled her up from the ground before they could do any more.

The two of them dragged each other to the corner of the room in shock, far away from the windows and door panels.

Yi Mian whispered:

"You're right, I'm leaving too."

The impact of this scene was too great, and the two didn't bother with the reasons for leaving any longer. They made an appointment to go to the wall to find the door to go out after dark.

While waiting for the dark, Yi Mian continued to sit silently in the corner, various thoughts flashed through her mind.

The girl's voice was always quiet, and he also lowered his voice. The people outside the door probably didn't notice their actions.

But when he thinks of those people huddled together, he still shudders, has he been under such "surveillance" by them these two days?

Yi Mian tried to walk over quietly, deliberately opened the door suddenly, but the guards at the door lined up neatly in two rows, greeted him with due diligence, and there was nothing wrong with it.

The sun sank in anxious waiting.

He counted the time, sent away two subordinates who came to care about him, opened the window, and slipped out against the wall.

"You came?"

He sneaked into the bushes under the moonlight, and approached the wall carefully, where a thin figure was waiting for him.

"The way they look at me is so strange... It's like looking at a monkey. How am I different from them?" The girl naturally regarded him as her own and complained to him in a low voice.

Yi Mian shook her head to express that she didn't know, and said casually, "Aren't you afraid?"

"It's okay." The girl was also taken aback, "I was quite scared at first, but I always feel that... being afraid can't solve the problem, and it will be fine if you leave quickly."

While talking, they had already quickly walked half the town along the wall, and there were many more patrolling guards on the street than usual, which made them a little startled.

"Look there! Are you going out of town?"

There was a faint light on the wall in front, the two looked at each other, and the girl let out a low cry of excitement.

With hope right in front of her eyes, Yi Mian moved more slowly, rubbing it over little by little.

Just a few meters away from the open and closed gate, the two were already considering whether to rush out, but a sudden sound of footsteps interrupted their plan.

Through the gaps in the leaves, one can vaguely recognize that this is a brown-haired young man. He walked precisely to the bushes where the two were hiding, turned around, and turned his back to them.

"Sorry to interrupt you so late, but I'm always restless."

The tone of the young man was as exaggerated as the residents of the town, which made people frown unconsciously. Yi Mian was sure where he had heard this voice before.

A guard came over here and asked him what help he needed.

There was a hint of malice in his voice: "There are two people who want to leave our town, may I ask... have you caught them?"

Two people? !

The two people mentioned were taken aback, and the girl turned her head to look at her teammates, but accidentally swept a branch, and the leaves collided in layers in an instant, rustling.

Fortunately, the guards were even more surprised and shouted louder, as if they knew they were nearby, and immediately ran to close the city gate, cursing loudly.

Yi Mian held down the nervous and trembling teammates beside her, and squatted calmly on the spot.

"I didn't catch it."

The man let out a meaningless exclamation, but his eyes had already locked on the bushes where the two were hiding.

The guard grabbed the weapon in his hand and said fiercely: "We will start the search immediately!"

They picked up the grass and tested the ground inch by inch with sharp needles, and they were about to lean in.

"Have you found anyone yet?"

The young man is like a circus member playing with a monkey. He walks around not too far and not too close. Finally, it seems that his patience is exhausted, and he suddenly pushes aside the lush green plants.

No one is empty.

Only the wind passes through it.

The people behind dutifully stabbed the inside with a gun to make sure there were no Tibetans.

The young man was stunned, as if he was a little surprised, but then he chuckled and walked slowly to the door.

"It's dangerous."

The girl hugged the branch tightly, and saw the nearby guards leave before she breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Yi Mian with admiration,

"You are so good, you can climb trees, I thought we were dead."

After she finished speaking, she quickly pursed her lower lip, as if realizing that her wording seemed to be disrespectful to the "king", and carefully looked away.

Yi Mian squatted on another thick branch, her back pressed against the tree trunk, she didn't pay attention to the other party's words at all, she just stared at the person under the tree.

Even in the dark of night, the noise of the running was too great, and it was almost impossible to escape under the noses of so many people, and there were guards checking the road they touched.

But the brown-haired young man forced them to show up, and he just didn't want to make the other party happy.

Fortunately, the trees here are tall and connected, so Yi Mian ran up to the top with the girl on her back, and climbed to the other side through the branches. With the sound of the wind blowing from above, no one cared about the sound of the two of them.

only……

Yi Mian clenched his fist thoughtfully. Climbing a tree with weight was easier than he imagined. Was it because he had similar experience before?

He silently recorded this important piece of information in his heart, and vaguely grasped something in his mind.

The people below didn't gain anything, and gradually dispersed. The two slipped down from the tree and left separately.

The next morning, as soon as Yi Mian opened her eyes, her brows twitched violently.

You can’t see the window from the angle of the bed, but a long and thin shadow is clearly reflected on the floor by the window. The black head is magnified under the sunlight, and your fingers are firmly against the glass. Even if you can’t see the entity, you can still feel the strict peeping feel.

As if knowing that he had got up, the black shadow slowly left the window, and the knock on the door was accompanied by a human voice just right: "Are you awake? Something happened last night and I need to inform you."

Knowing what they were going to say, Yi Mian opened the door directly, and the guards rushed over, even though he was mentally prepared, he was still taken aback.

The number of guards was more than twice that of yesterday. They lined up densely by the wall and at the door, completely enclosing the entire building.

"You don't know, there are two traitors among us..."

The leader gave a detailed account of last night's situation, and described the escaped two men as vicious and treacherous. His tone was filled with righteous indignation, and he was clearly convicting the traitor, but he stared viciously at the young man in front of him.

As the person involved, Yi Mian listened without any psychological pressure, and nodded perfunctorily in agreement from time to time.

The atmosphere is sharp and dangerous.

The two sides no longer maintained the cautious politeness of yesterday, and tacitly revealed their true colors, leaving only a layer of hypocrisy on the surface.

"...So, I arranged more guards on my own, I hope you can understand."

The man said the most respectful words with the most vicious expression, but his actions did not exceed the rules at all.

Yi Mian couldn't figure out why these people didn't arrest themselves directly, were they afraid of a vain "king" title?He deliberately asked, "What if I want to go out?"

The man said: "Don't worry, we will always protect you."

Yi Mian continued to probe, "What if I want to go outside the city wall?"

The man's tone was incredible: "Why do you have such an idea?"

With a bright expression on his face, he wrote the word "impossible", glanced at the surrounding human wall as if suggestive, and stopped answering this question.

Yi Mian silently estimated the strength of the guards armed with weapons, and could only temporarily put aside her plan to leave.

"Just kidding." He waved his hand and closed the door, "I won't go anywhere today."

"It's good of you to think so."

The man seemed satisfied with his understanding, squeezed out a smile, bowed and left.

The black-haired young man went around the hall and bedroom, found the narrow stairs in the corner, and walked up slowly.

Although this is the tallest building in the entire town, the first floor contains all the rooms needed for life. For a while, he didn't think about going to get the whole picture, and now he couldn't go out, which happened to give him a chance to explore.

The surroundings became quieter as we went up, and the sound of footsteps walking back and forth outside the window gradually disappeared.

Stepping into the second floor, Yi Mian looked through the doors one by one, most of them were empty rooms, and a few of them had two or three pieces of furniture placed there, as if for display, without traces of use.

Like the bedroom, it was like a temporary performance booth built for him.

He casually rummaged through the things in the house, feeling more and more doubts in his heart.

The fuzzy memory is like paper, and he is very sure that he does not belong to this town. The three "prisoners" who were executed and the short-haired girl are the same as him, but the residents of the town cannot for some reason. Hurt him, and I should use this reason to escape as soon as possible.

Thinking of the vicious faces of the residents, Yi Mian frowned, disgust welling up from the bottom of her heart.
