Julie Gail got off the boat. She lowered her head and walked faster and faster as if she didn't want to attract attention.
In the end, it turned into running, getting further and further away from the ship.
(I see…)
He muttered to himself.
When the ship reached the port, people got off the ship one after another. The shouts of unloading cargo, the busy sounds of sailors, the people who came here for a long journey, the families who gathered to send them off, and the goods and luggage being transported in and out could be heard everywhere. The port was surrounded by the morning clamor.
Julie skillfully blended into the commotion and disappeared. Of course, the police had asked her to stay, but she did not intend to do so.
Julie blended into the crowd at the port in the morning and strode away.
As soon as they got off the ship, the woman who called herself Julie Gale would disappear. After sneaking into the city, no one would be able to find him.
Julie, who was walking quickly, did not notice the man behind her.
They were a pair of people holding hands and dancing as they walked--good friends wearing the same rabbit fur hunting hat.
Julie muttered to herself.
"I see. You did the same thing back then, didn't you…"
Tears glistened in her eyes.
Memories came flooding back.
No, it couldn't be described with beautiful words like memories.
It was a nightmare-a nightmarish night-
"Right? We were all deceived by you, Xiu Yi…"
The " Hound " that was placed in the " Wild Rabbit ".
Hughie was Nie De Basda.
"You also pretended to be a corpse like this back then, right…?”
Monologue 3:(Because there are too few individual chapters, they are combined together.）
I put the heart-shaped necklace I picked up on the stairs into my pocket, got up and walked down the dark stairs, intending to return to the original corridor.
Halfway up the stairs, an accident happened.
Gunshots and screams came from afar…
I began to run, down the stairs, and into the dark, shabby corridor.
Then, she stood rooted to the ground because she was too shocked.
"…Xiu Yi!?"
His companions in the corridor fell to the ground one by one. Jiao| The little French girl leaned over her as if she wanted to protect Li. The tall and strong Italian youth leaned against the wall of the corridor and stared blankly at the blood that kept flowing out of his shoulder. A thin American teenager with curly hair fell to the ground and moaned| Yin. In front of him was Yang, whose arm was bleeding.
In the middle of this hellish scene, there was a thin youth.
That was Xiu Yi, who should have died.
I couldn't help but scream. He slowly turned to this side, and I held my breath. There was no expression on his pale face. It was not his own will, but controlled by some huge power, like a terrifying puppet.
"Found 'Wild Rabbit'!"
What about him?| After muttering, he suddenly smiled.
He was holding a machine gun in one hand that he had probably snatched from the drowned teenager.
In other words…the last few words they left behind…
" A ghost ran out…!"
"After snatching our guns, you left us here…"
'Ghost' should be referring to the dead Xiu Yi, right?
But now, his comrades were all bleeding and lying on the ground.
I felt blood rush to my head. I took out the pistol in my pocket and aimed at Hughie's chest.
"Xiu Yi, put down the gun!"
"These are my lines."
Xiu Yi smiled and pulled the trigger.
There was a burning shock on my right shoulder-I was on my knees when I realized I had been shot. The gun in his hand also fell to the ground. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead as he shivered.
Xiu Yi approached happily, step by step. The gun was pointed at my head…
"…Stop!"
The young man's voice rang out.
Yang, whose arm was bleeding profusely, stood up and stood between Xiu Yi and me. Trembling with anger| The trembling voice said,
"I don't know why you're doing this…but don't point a gun at a girl.”
"It doesn't matter if it's a man or a woman in the box.”
Xiu Yi's voice was also trembling.| Trembling-for some reason, she was afraid, and her eyes wandered uneasily.
"What's important is nationality. It's not gender."
"…What's going on?"
"I'm just a helper. You are the hares, and I am the hound among the hares. They've ordered me to kill you as I see fit. For the country, I will kill all of you!”
"Xiu Yi…?"
I could only look at his face in confusion as I saw his painful expression and incomprehensible content. Xiu Yi raised his machine gun.
"What's happening here is the 'future'! Definitely!"
Yang Fei pounced forward.
He pressed his chest against the muzzle of the gun and Hughie pulled the trigger.
Yang Xiao's small body flew out and blood sprayed onto my face. He was hit by a bullet at close range, and a large hole appeared in his chest. Then, he fell to the ground, making a loud sound that was hard to imagine coming from such a small body. Blood gushed out like a fountain, instantly dyeing the tattered black carpet bright red.
I screamed. Then, Xiu Yi pointed the gun at them.
He smiled.
He opened his thin lips and said,"
"Beg for mercy!"
I looked up and glared at him. Xiu Yi's expression did not change.
"…No."
"Then die!"
The muzzle was getting closer and closer to me, and I couldn't help but close my eyes.
Clang!
The trigger was pulled, making a small sound.
I opened my eyes.
It seemed that I had run out of bullets. I hurriedly picked up the gun that had fallen to the ground and held it tightly with my left hand.
Xiu Yi turned around and ran away.
I looked at his back and pulled the trigger.
The muzzle of the gun let out a few deafening sounds, but it missed. The bleeding on my shoulder made me lose consciousness.
When I came back to my senses, I had already swallowed my words. As I pulled the trigger, my tears blocked my vision, and my shoulders shook violently from the sobs.
I glanced at the dead Yang and stood up. He staggered and walked to the side of his companions.
The American and Italian teenagers were shot in the side and shoulder respectively, but the bullets seemed to have only grazed them. When I called out to them, they were still able to stand up with difficulty. The French girl fainted because she was scared.
After the three of them stood up, I once again carried Li, who had fainted from blood loss. Her heart-shaped necklace was still in my pocket. I thought to myself that I had to give it to her, so I walked forward again.
The Italian boy seemed to want to cheer up the unsteady American boy and began to talk about his hometown. It was an inappropriate topic.
"I live near the market. In the morning, he helped the stall to earn some pocket money. The best part was the stalls filled with all kinds of vegetables. Summer vegetables look beautiful and delicious. They definitely won't lose to any country..."
The American teenager smiled weakly, as if to show that he heard him.
Suddenly, the French girl muttered to herself.
"Why…?"
The others turned around.
The French girl forced herself to ask the air,"
"He's still alive? He's clearly dead."
No one spoke.
Because no one knew.
I also kept thinking about it in my mind like crazy. At that time…Xiu Yi's pulse had indeed stopped…
I am the dividing line
Julie Gail left the port and got into a rental carriage by the street. The sea breeze entered the carriage, and her long black hair fluttered in the wind. It brushed past her pale face and was blown away again. This repeated over and over again.
Julie sat alone in the rocking chair, deep in thought.
"That's right…"
Unknowingly, he muttered to himself,
"I was the one who went to check Hughie's pulse…His pulse did stop, and he looked like he was dead. After that, I was also puzzled as to what was going on.”
The scenery outside the window gradually entered the hustle and bustle of the city. Julie felt more at ease in the crowd. He had finally completed his revenge and successfully escaped.
The coachman approached her in a cheerful voice.
"Miss, the weather is really good today.”What an old-fashioned content.
But she pretended not to hear it. The coachman did not give up and continued,
"It was still cloudy just now! Today must be a good day."
"…Yeah,"
Julie replied in a low voice.
He laughed alone.
She thought of Victoria and smiled. I believe this slightly strange young beauty| The woman herself did not know that she had solved the question in her heart for the past ten years in an instant.
The tennis ball that was rolling on Hughie's body.
Ten years ago, Xiu Yi used the same method to disguise himself as a corpse, right? In this way, everyone fell into panic and became the cause of the dispute. After that, he left everyone and took people's lives in a vile way.
"I see…"
Clenching my chest tightly| The heart-shaped pendant in front.
However, he had also gotten his revenge beautifully. The adult who locked the " wild rabbit " in the box and tortured it before killing it, and the teenager who played the role of the " hound " were no longer in this world. Everything was over. Next, he just needed to escape to a faraway place.
Suddenly, Julie felt strange.
The rental carriage did not follow Julie's instructions and drove to the train station where one could take the train to a foreign country. Instead, it sped along different street corners, getting further and further away from the train station. Molly hurriedly asked the coachman,"
"Where are you going?"
"…Miss, where do you think you're going?”
The coachman turned around.
It was a handsome young man. He had a noble appearance and a sarcastic smile on his face. He was wearing a coat that was too expensive for a coachman, and a silk tie that looked expensive.
"Who are you?"
Julie's gaze was completely attracted by the coachman's strange hairstyle (the front end was fixed into a streamlined shape, a shape she had never seen before), and she couldn't help but shout.
"I am Gurewin.
"…Who is Gurewin?"
"A police officer."
"What?"
The coachman tightened the reins.
The horse neighed and stopped.
At the same time, there was a flurry of footsteps. Julie could not help but hold her breath. At some point, the rental carriage was surrounded by police officers.
He looked around and realized that he was in front of the police station building. It was a square building with square iron windows. This building with a long history had a threatening appearance, reminiscent of a prison. The dark orange red brick wall seemed to be approaching them step by step.
Julie took a closer look.
A young man and a young woman stood in front of the police station. The Night Moon Illusion of the royal family of the Eastern Empire (a system product), and the blonde girl Victoria, who was called a little detective by Julie and had an aristocratic aura.
The two of them held hands and looked over.
Julie shrugged. He smiled at the coachman.
“GAMESET？”
"…It seems so."
The coachman jumped down from the carriage, opened the door from the outside, and politely extended his hand towards Julie.| He attacked. The sharp hairstyle almost pierced Julie's face. When Julie helped him out of the carriage, the coachman puffed out his chest.
"Arrest Julie Gale for murder!”
Julie instantly laughed. Then, his expression turned frosty as he walked towards the police station.
In a room in the police station, Julie Gale sat in front of Officer Gurewin de Brois, Victoria, and Ye Yuehuan.
For some reason, the two subordinates of the police officer were locked outside the door. They stood in front of the door hand in hand (good friends, 10,000 years).
Although this police station was not under the jurisdiction of Officer Brova, because Victoria had reported the case in advance and his noble status gave him the right to speak, the police officer simply treated this place as his own jurisdiction and did whatever he wanted.
It was a little dark in the ridiculously large room. There was a long table in the middle of the room. The lighting was a practical single-ball light bulb, and the rough wooden chair in the room would make a creaking sound if it was moved slightly.
Juliegale sat on the chair with an incredulous expression and said to Victoria,"
"How did you know that the criminal was me?"
Victoria and Gurewin opened their bags at the same time, took out their tobacco pipes, and put them into their mouths. He lit a cigarette and took a puff. Victoria faced Julie, who was asking questions, and the police officer faced Victoria, who was being questioned. He slowly exhaled a mouthful of smoke, and then-
"…'Fountain of Wisdom'."
Victoria replied coldly.
When she realized that Julie and the police officer were all staring at her face, she could only brush her long blonde hair in boredom.
"You want me to explain…First of all, you lied from the beginning.”
"…Lying? Me?"
Julie blinked.
Victoria nodded.
"When I introduced myself. Julie Gale. The daughter of a businessman,'living freely in a spacious house...'"
Julie said in disbelief,"
"How do you know that I'm lying?”
"Huan, tell me."
Victoria looked lazy and did not intend to continue.
" Hmm…If Julie really lived a free life in a spacious house, she wouldn't have turned around every five steps. This kind of action is a habit only people who live in a narrow place where they will hit a wall every five steps have.”
Ye Yuehuan paused for a moment and continued speaking after glancing at Gurewin.
"And this kind of room is usually a single room in a prison, a hospital ward, or an attic in a house. This was what happened when one couldn't go out for a long time.”
Gurewin de Blois shook his body uneasily and cleared his throat. "Cough…cough cough…"
Meanwhile, Ye Yuehuan acted as if he did not see anything. Then, he turned back to Julie.
"Except for your false identity. And there's one more important thing-you've been armed from the start. When Morris finds a weapon and is about to use it, shoot Morris with a pistol. When you said that you found the gun by chance…that was also a lie.”
"How did you know?"
"From the quality of the handbag."
Ye Yuehuan pointed at Julie's handbag.
"At the beginning, in the lounge, that handbag was very heavy. I remember when it hit my head, it was very painful and loud. At that time, there was already a gun inside. That's why the handbag is so hard and heavy. After you take out the gun and throw it away, you accidentally drop the handbag and Victoria picks it up.”
"When Victoria threw the handbag back to Julie. The handbag seemed very light as it flew across the sky…
”
"And the reason why Nie De Basda wanted to take our lives was not because he was a criminal. He was probably one of the men involved in the incident ten years ago, right? Just like Morris, he believed that there was a 'wild rabbit' among us who wanted revenge, so he was secretly afraid. That's why he wanted to kill us before he was killed.”
The room…fell silent again.
Finally, Julie nodded.
"That's right…"
Her expression was surprisingly cheerful, as if she was relieved that her crimes had been exposed and she had been arrested. Julie said bluntly,
"I did it. Prepare the cruise ship and send out invitations. I plan to sink the ship into the sea after killing everyone. However, an unexpected miscalculation occurred…Rozanne was dead, and someone unrelated to her took her place on the ship. This made me very worried. He thought to himself that he definitely couldn't kill all of them, making him impatient.”
Julie smiled faintly.
"Seeing you guys reminds me of the past. At that time, there was a Chinese youth named Yang. He was gentle and reliable and helped me a lot. Although he was still killed by Nie De Basda in the end…Huan, I think of him whenever I see you.”
"Then why don't we talk tonight?" Ye Yuehuan joked subconsciously. However, what surprised Ye Yuehuan was that Julie's face had turned red, and she did not know how to put her hands together. Ye Yuehuan did not expect Julie, who looked like a mature lady, to be so flustered like a little girl. (A picture of Julie's older sister is attached.)）
"Stare ~ Stare ~"
Victoria also noticed the conversation and kept staring at it. Fortunately, Officer Gurewin de Blois interrupted.
"Can you tell us what happened ten years ago?”
Julie took a deep breath, adjusted her posture, and nodded.
"Phew…alright."
Then, Julie began to explain.
Ten years ago, he was locked in a black carriage with iron windows on the roadside of this city. Waking up with a group of young people on the ship, the real Queenberry. The nightmarish night began.
The deaths of his companions, Xiu Yi's betrayal, and climbing up the deck with his injured companions.
And what the surviving " Wild Rabbit " saw there...
We walked along the waterlogged corridor, climbed up the stairs at the bow, and headed towards the deck…
Li's body on my back became heavier and heavier. My knees tremble with every step I take| He was trembling. But I'm the only one left who can carry her. The two youths were hit by Xiu Yi, and their wounds kept bleeding. Their faces became paler and paler, while the other girl was frightened and kept crying. If I don't carry it, I can only leave Li behind.
I didn't know if Li, who was lying weakly on my back, was still alive or dead. Every time she climbed up a step, her black hair swayed gently. Her smooth, chocolate-colored skin gradually lost its healthy color.
We climbed up and finally reached the deck.
The sky gradually brightened.
Last night, on the stern deck, he couldn't see anything because he was surrounded by darkness. But now, the light of dawn illuminated the deck from the eastern sky. Waves came from the gray sea, and tranquility approached and retreated.
With trembling| With trembling legs, he walked forward step by step and arrived at the radio room.
He opened the door…
The white smoke that lingered around the ceiling of the room blocked his vision like a fog.
When we entered the room, covered in blood, the nine adult men who were originally in the room turned around at the same time.
Some were playing cards, some were smoking cigars, and some were reading documents.
The white smoke from the cigar rose to the ceiling.
When the men saw us, they were all dumbfounded.
Then they shouted together,"
"Which country is it?"
"State your nationality! And who are the ones who died!"
"Very good, this guy is from Suval! Where are the allies?"
They grabbed us by the shoulders and shook us roughly.
The man holding the Brandy glass stood up. Among this group of men, he looked relatively young. He was about 35 years old and grabbed the middle-aged gentleman's arm."
"Forget it, forget it. I'll comfort them first.”
"Morris…"
"Come on."
The man called Morris looked down at us and raised his hands.
"Pa!| pa| Pa…!" They clapped.
"Brave hare! Welcome!"
The men also followed him and started clapping. That smile, smile, smile…
It was simply crazy.
I couldn't support Li on my back, causing her to fall to the ground. I called out,"Li…!" I immediately squatted down and saw a man looking down at me.
Staring at Li's black hair and chocolate skin.
With a snort-
"Arabia?"
Then, he kicked Li, who had fallen to the ground.
I screamed. But Li didn't move. Maybe he really died…
I reached out my hand| She put it into her pocket and tightly held the heart-shaped necklace that she wanted to return to her earlier. She could not help but shed tears.
The group of men looked at us from afar.
" England is alive."
"Of course. That guy was a Hound. I came back alive."
" Also, this is…France, Italy, America…and Suval.”
They faced each other and nodded.
There was a strange person in the room. She was sitting in a wheelchair, covering her head with a red linen cloth. Her wrinkled skin covered half of her eyes.
It was an old woman.
In front of her were silver, copper, and glass pots. In her wrinkled hands was a mirror that was shining with golden light.
"A young man is about to lose his life…"
It was an extremely low voice.
The men turned to look at the old lady.
"Lord Rozanne!"
"His death was the beginning of everything.
The world would turn into stone and begin to spin.”
The room was silent.
Granny Rozanne shouted,"
"Follow the prophecy! This way, this country would become richer and stronger!”
"Yes…!"
The men lowered their heads.
I didn't know what was going on, so I could only stand by the side.
(Prophecy…? What is going on…?)
In the end, the old lady shook her head and announced with a hoarse voice,"
"That's the end of the Hare Race. Immediately sink the box! Then, we'll fatten up the 'wild rabbit'!"
