Sangzhuo was the first to come to his senses. He walked forward, tried to roughly assess the current state of the railway in front of him, and said uncertainly:
"It should be fine. We can just cross the London Eye and get through the gap on the far right."
Dunn was immediately eager to step forward and take a closer look.
"No, what if the cable car on the Ferris wheel suddenly crashes down? Let's go to the Waterloo Bridge at the South Bank Theater." Stephenson looked at the scene in front of him, trembling with fear, and wanted to turn around and change the direction. Across the Thames.
Dunn was immediately eager to step forward and take a closer look, but was held back by Aiden.
Lily pursed her lips, and was having a fierce battle in her heart. On one side was the search and rescue operation of John's team, which was pressed for time, and on the other side was the personal safety of the children in the orphanage she led. It really wasn't that good for her to make a choice. made.
If you choose to go back and walk again, let alone the distance issue, I don’t know if the muffled sound in the station is caused by people or the objects aging and hitting the ground due to the erosion of the flow of time. If it is the latter, then forget it, if it is The former, then they have the possibility of bumping into strangers, which is contrary to their purpose of hiding when they can.
Gritting her teeth, Lily made a decision and said immediately:
"Aiden, Dunn, Stephenson, you stay here for the time being and try your best to find out the safety of the railway ahead while ensuring your own safety to see if you can pass safely. Camille, you and I go back to the station. I We need your help to find something.”
Dunn immediately understood what Lily wanted to do. When she looked at the vending machine just now, she must have discovered something.
After hearing this, Aiden thought of something, so he took out his backpack, took out an object wrapped in layers of cloth, walked forward and handed it to Lily.
Lily hesitated for two seconds, then took the object with a heavy hand.
After putting the thing in her arms, Lily said to Camille:
"Let's go back, but be careful not to make too much noise."
After getting Camille's response, Lily started to return to the railway track where they came from. On the way, she also shared with Camille some tips on how not to make loud noises.
Of course, this is also a bonus of her ability. Lily really feels that if she is given another set of pure black clothes, she can become a good thief.
Returning to the edge of the station platform, after observing for a while, Lily made a small sprint and supported with one hand, allowing herself to climb over the iron stair gate on the edge of the platform that was almost the same height as her, and then easily opened the lock from the back. The buckle allowed Camille to get onto the platform without much effort.
Regarding Lily's light and agile skills, Camille didn't even ask a word. She felt that Lily should have been so powerful, and it could be said that she worshiped her blindly...
Lily knew that she had to first confirm whether the high-value item was still where it was. If it was no longer there, it would provide Lily with an additional piece of information—there was indeed someone in the station.
So Lily silently and quickly moved to the location where the high-value item she sensed last disappeared when she first arrived, and began to pace around in a small area to find the sense.
When she arrived near the blue line marked with Car No. 4, approximately in the middle of the platform, the feeling appeared again, which made Lily relax a little and look towards the platform in the direction.
She could only see 24 meters away, but it was obvious that the thing was about 50 meters away, which meant that Lily would have to cross several platforms to find the thing.
"It looks like we have to move back to the platform over at the waiting hall." Lily observed for a few seconds and pointed to the location she sensed.
"Is it on a certain platform over there? Can we go around directly from the railway track to that side and then go down?" Camille felt that it would be faster to go around the railway track outside the platform.
Lily did not deny Camille's idea. It would be better to say that Camille was right, but Lily had other plans, so she responded patiently:
"Of course it is possible, but I also want to see if there is anything useful or trace information along the way. I think you heard the muffled sound just now. I want to collect as much information as possible within the limit of possibility."
"Lily is still thoughtful." Camille easily accepted Lily's explanation and praised it.
Lily took a shallow breath, cheered up again, walked towards the stairs leading to the waiting hall, and walked up quickly without making a sound.
It's just that Camille is a "power player" after all. She can't control her body as well as Lily, and she still makes a few noises from time to time, which makes her look at Lily a little embarrassed.
Lily gave her an okay look and continued climbing quickly.
Camille quickly climbed up the steps with confidence and boldness.
Outdoors, the little noise Camille caused was basically negligible, so Lily didn't ask her for anything.
Returning to the waiting hall again, Lily did not go directly to the platform in the direction of her induction. Instead, she moved a few meters in the direction they came from, and began to carefully observe the nearby environment and traces that may be man-made.
As she watched, Lily's brows wrinkled involuntarily.
"What's wrong, Sister Lily?" Camille asked in a low voice after seeing Lily's expression.
"There is such a thick accumulation of dust caused by the eclipse phenomenon. If John and his 'sifting patrol' team went this way, why didn't they leave any traces?"
"Whether it's footprints or anything else, such as palms touching or fingers touching, there are no similar traces. The only ones here are the footprints from when we just came here."
After a pause, Lily continued: "This reveals two possibilities - either John's team has never been here, or the time eclipse phenomenon began to appear after John's team disappeared."
"Also, what happened at the London Eye just now gave me some suspicion."
"What is it?" Camille chose not to waste her brain cells. She was already a little dizzy after listening to Lily's analysis.
"Such a weird time eclipse phenomenon is like the time inside the 'wall' suddenly started to pass, catching up with the ten years outside the 'wall' in a way we can't understand." Lily said calmly, but Her hand holding the flashlight tightened subconsciously.
Although Camille was not good at thinking, Lily finally spoke so plainly and clearly. She was not stupid either, and a layer of cold sweat broke down her back in an instant.
If Waterloo Station hadn't been like this when Brother John and the others set out a week ago... Camille didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Lily's face became more solemn than ever before. She didn't waste any more time and quickly walked towards the location of the high-value items in the sensor.
