Aron tied a rope to himself and wrapped the other end around the deck, then took a flashlight and a knife and slowly slid off the boat.
Recognizing patterns on a rusted hull is inherently difficult, not to mention that the patterns are partially submerged in water.
Aaron didn't come up for a long time, Pan Xiaoxin looked at him from the handrail.
During the long wait, Bai Youwei sat beside Teacher Cheng, wiped off the moisture on his body with a dry towel, and kept as dry as possible.
Teacher Cheng opened his eyes several times, but did not speak, just looked at them for a while, and then closed his eyes again, as if very tired.
Bai Youwei wiped Teacher Cheng's face, wiped his arms, and wiped his hands until he touched something hard...
like nails.
She looked there silently.
On the back of Teacher Cheng's hand, a layer of tiny...translucent fish scales grew.
Pan Xiaoxin also saw it, and looked at Bai Youwei with red eyes: "Sister Weiwei..."
Bai Youwei was silent, watched for a long time, put down Teacher Cheng's hand, and went to check Asha Lina.
Asalina was also seriously injured, but for some reason, there was nothing abnormal on her body.
Asha Lina recalled for a moment and said to Bai Youwei, "Maybe the sea water has diluted the mucus, so I'm fine."
As for Teacher Cheng, when he was still on the boat, he was bitten by the mermaid.
Asha Lina observed Bai Youwei's expression, and slowly said, "You said, it's not over yet, as long as we can leave here, it's still unknown what the outcome will be."
So, don't give up easily. Until the last moment, no one knows what the outcome will be.
However, such chicken soup is as thin as boiled water for Bai Youwei.
She was silent for a while, and asked Asha Lina, "Aqing, how did you do it after the accident happened, and attacked him?"
Asalina was stunned when she heard the words.
Bai Youwei lowered her head, clasped her wet skirt on her knees with both hands, and said slowly, "I have no other intentions, just thinking, in case... if Teacher Cheng can't be rescued, I... what should I... "
She couldn't go on.
Asalina looked at her, already knowing what she meant.
In case Teacher Cheng becomes like Ah Qing, there must be one of them who will end Teacher Cheng's life. And this candidate should obviously be Bai Youwei.
Asha Lina said softly, "I only had one thought in my mind at the time, that Aqing was in pain. He is in very, very pain now, so I must do my best not to let him continue to be in pain."
Bai Youwei nodded blankly: "Well, I see..."
"But I also regret it." Asha Lina said again.
Bai Youwei was stunned and looked at her in confusion.
Asha Lina said: "Humans, even if they make decisions that they think are correct, they will regret the results they caused. I killed Ah Qing, and I will never forget it for the rest of my life. I will regret it, and I will also feel sad and painful. , but if I did it all over again, I'd still kill him.
Do you want to escape the condemnation of your conscience by saying a few frivolous and seemingly reasonable words? Impossible, there has never been an easy way to live in this world, everyone is burdened with their own shackles. "
Bai Youwei pursed her lips and inhaled slowly, "...I see."
She turned around and continued to help Cheng Wei to dry off the water on her body, always thinking of Asha Lina's words in her mind—
Even if you make a decision that you think is right, it is inevitable to move forward with guilt.
Beautiful words are just placebos, they cannot change the nature of pain.
A tear fell on Cheng's hand.
Bai Youwei was in a trance, hurriedly wiped her eyes, and continued to wipe on Teacher Cheng.
On the other side, Aron finally climbed back to the boat.
Asha Lina couldn't wait to ask him: "How is it? Can you see the pattern of colors?"
Aaron panted and nodded, "Well, although some places can't be seen because of the occlusion, it should be eight, yes, black and red are repeated 8 times!"
