Chapter 644 - Life and death are gone, so long for twenty one seconds



The fire was not obvious at first, but it quickly turned into a raging flame, and black smoke rose up. Although half of the lake was separated, I could still see clearly. If it were not for the topography of my choice, I knew that the fire would not spread. Go, I’m really worried that this fire will swallow the entire mountain forest.

The frightened birds flew up in groups, as if a large number of hunters had broken into the territory where they lived, and as if they were delivering news of the fire.

“Why did they start the fire in advance?” Situ asked, looking at the distance, frowning.

Su Huilan thought it was nothing, and said, “It’s probably because we haven’t been going back for so long, and we are worried about something, so let’s start the fire. Anyway, it’s going to be burned, or burn it first. Ronald Cohen’s body will be dealt with after it is found. All right.”

Aoki felt something was wrong, but couldn’t tell. Think about it, too, let Mrs. Larry and Alice guard hundreds of dead bodies, and no one has heard from them on the boat for so long, so no one has to worry about it. The body is going to be burned anyway, it doesn’t matter if it burns first.

But what is wrong?

Seeing Situ’s face also solemn, he seemed to have doubts. He said: “First take Mrs. and Alice back, and then slowly find the whereabouts of Petru and Ivan. We should not be separated now.”

Situ nodded and said, “It can only be so.”

They rowed ashore together, when Mrs. Larry and Alice were already waiting on the shore. Both of them didn’t look good, but they weren’t exactly the same. Mrs. Larry’s face was tired and pale, as if she was ill; while Alice’s face was panicked, as if frightened, and her face was flushed with tension and her heart beat faster.

“Are you all right?” Situ asked.

“Madam is a little sick, will she be sick?” Alice said anxiously.

“Isn’t it okay just now?” Su Huilan went over to help her support Mrs. Larry, “Why did it happen all of a sudden?”

Alice said, “I don’t know. Not long after you left, the lady said that her dizziness was terrible. I gave her water and it didn’t get better. There were so many dead people in front of her. Although there was sun in the sky, there was no sunlight coming down. Everything is spooky. I am scared!”

Duval came over and grabbed Mrs. Larry’s wrist and said, “Let me see.”

Aoki knew that Duwa had good medical skills. She only gave the medicine woman a random guidance, and he could be regarded as a life-saving bodhisattva by the Mandians, but he went on a crooked road.

“It’s okay, I’m just a little dizzy.” Mrs. Larry said weakly.

Duval frowned and said, “It may be that we have had too little rest recently. We can’t tell the difference between day and night. It’s time to take a good rest.”

Suddenly she grabbed Alice’s hand again and said, “Come on, I’ll show you too.”

Alice was taken aback and instinctively retracted, but Dewar held her tightly. She did not break free, so she obediently let Dewar give her pulse.

Dewar’s brows tightened. She asked her pulse, “Who lit the fire above?”

“It’s me.” Alice said, “I was scared just now. You are not here. Madam is uncomfortable. I want to look at so many dead people. When I was scared, I…lighted a fire…”

Dewar nodded: “You did the right thing. It’s time to burn it. It’s time to burn it just now.”

Alice asked, “Isn’t there another person?”

Duval said, “I didn’t find it.”

She still grasped Alice’s veins, but stared at Alice’s face without blinking. She looked at Alice in a panic and asked, “What’s wrong with me? Am I okay?”

“You’re okay.” Dewar finally let go of his hand. “You are too tired and need a good rest.”

Aoki always felt that Dewar hadn’t said anything.

The fire is still burning. Although it is all dry wood and corpses, it is easy to burn, but it takes a long time to burn so much. Situ said: “Aomu, let’s go up and see how it is burning. If there is not enough firewood, we can add a little more.”

Aoki said, “Okay.”

Duval said, “I’ll go too.”

The three people went up the hillside together and came to the crematorium inside. The flame was still burning fiercely, emitting red, yellow and blue lights, and the booming sound contained a croaking sound. The exploded sparks flew around in the air, and black smoke gathered on the top of the flame. The more you go up, the more, like a volcanic cloud.

The fire was not extinguished for the time being, Qingmu and Situ both no longer looked at the fire, but at Dewar, the fire flashing on her face.

Duval said: “Mrs. Larry is fine, but mentally traumatized.”

Aoki was surprised and asked; “What kind of trauma?”

“That’s not good.” Duval was silent for a while, “It seems to have been hypnotized, but she resisted. You should understand the possible consequences.”

“Alice?” Aoki and Situ said at the same time.

Duval shook his head: “I thought so at first, but Alice doesn’t have the ability. If her mental power is strong enough to hide from me, then Mrs. Larry should have no chance to resist.”

This is strange.

The three people looked at the fire in front of them at the same time. The flames were still fierce, and the flames pierced people’s eyes. They stood for a long time, until Su Huilan came over and called them:

“Don’t you always make people worry!”

The three of them returned to the lake. After discussing it, they decided to go to the big boat. The boats and rafts are all there, none of them are missing. Ivan and Petru should still be on the big boat. They must be found, as well as the body of Ronald Cohen.

Back to the Swordfish~www.mtlnovel.com~ Duval stayed on the deck to accompany Alice and Mrs. Larry. Qing Mu, Situ, and Su Huilan went down and searched again, but they still found nothing.

Of course, the Swordfish is very large inside, relying only on torches to illuminate it, and it can’t last forever, and it can’t find every corner. They returned to the deck, and after a short rest, they changed to a new torch and continued to descend. This was repeated several times, but no trace of Petru and Ivan were found.

For a long time to come, they slept and ate on the boat, took turns to the shore to chop wood, and fished in the lake.

Aoki went to the crematorium to take a look while cutting firewood. There was scorched earth on one side, and the large swaths of embers were shocking to see. But this piece of charred black looks very strange. It is reasonable to say that the bones of the human body are white after being burned. No matter how calcium is burned, it will not turn into carbon. Calcium oxide should be very conspicuous in the charcoal, but what about the more than 300 corpses?

He watched for a long time, but he didn’t find any traces of bones. He remembered that when the fire started, the birds in the forest flew all the way, as if someone was driving them away in the jungle. At that time, the fire was not very big.

Ronald Cohen was gone, and now, the bodies of the hundreds of soldiers who had been mutilated with him seemed to have disappeared after cremation.

Of course, the matter of the dead is not the most important thing, and the lives of the living cannot be ignored. They didn’t give up looking for Petru and Ivan, they went to the cabin a few times, sometimes in the nearby woods, but they still disappeared, as if the two had disappeared with the dead.

During a break, Alice asked, “How long have we been like this?”

It has been so long that Mrs. Larry could not rely on her accurate biological clock to infer, and everyone had to look at Situ.

“Twenty-one seconds.”

Situ stood on the deck with his hands folded, looked up at the sky, as if looking for something in the starry sky.
