Lily took Camille to the grand theater of the South Bank Theater and removed some sponge cushions from the many audience seats. This was how they could sleep more comfortably at night.
Finally, after nearly two hours of busy work, everyone finally settled down, ate dry food, decided on the order of the night watch, and fell asleep together.
The night was uneventful. Although rats occasionally passed by, they didn't dare to approach anyone.
At dawn, Lily had already gotten up. After simply washing herself with water, she went to the balcony on the second floor of the South Bank Theater alone. Then she took off in a sprint, and with the help of the balcony railing, she directly reached the balcony of the South Bank Theater with one hand. The edge of the roof.
After pausing for a second, Lily exerted strength on her waist and arms at the same time, using her feet on the wall to send herself to the top floor of the South Bank Theater.
She stared into the distance, which allowed her to briefly break through the 24-meter viewing distance limit and see the scene 50 meters away. This allowed her to just see the Waterloo Bridge and see the whole thing made of gray-white marble. An ancient bridge spanning the River Thames.
Unlike modern bridges, Waterloo Bridge uses an arch pillar structure, with a total of nine bridge arches. As one of the important bridges that once connected the North and West Ends of London, it was repaired once after World War II, so it The sturdiness became so good that Lily could not find any traces left by the eclipse phenomenon on it.
Lily remembered that one time when the orphanage organized a spring outing, the orphanage teacher, a kind lady who was called Mama Teatang by the children, had introduced some things about Waterloo Bridge to Lily and other people in the orphanage. She mentioned the bridge. There is also a more comedic name - Ladies Bridge
It is said that the first time Waterloo Bridge was built, almost all were completed by women, so it got this nickname.
Of course, Lily came to the roof not only to observe the situation of the bridge, but also to check the surrounding environment of the bridge to ensure that everyone in the orphanage could safely cross the bridge.
After confirming the situation, Lily did not rush back to the second floor. Instead, she slowly sat down on the edge of the roof of the third floor, swinging her feet back and forth in the air casually, enjoying the rare peace.
In the orphanage, she had to take care of many things, whether she was taking care of the younger children or frequently patrolling the entire orphanage to ensure that even if the children had disputes, they would have a notary to help them determine what was right and wrong. .
After John disappeared, she couldn't spare even a minute, whether she was discussing the details of John's rescue team or what happened after Liu Shiqin came to the orphanage.
Taking a deep breath and feeling the comfort brought by the cool breeze in the morning, Lily regretted that she couldn't see the sun rising. The fog blocked the sunlight and limited its penetration. Lily and everyone in the orphanage could only simply to distinguish the difference between day and night.

Magic City, another rooftop corner.
Ariel pulled a blanket from somewhere and wrapped it tightly around herself. This made her feel a little better and she was not so cold anymore, but her hunger was still tormenting her. After all, a day and a night had passed, so what else could she do? I didn't even eat, and my body started to become weak.
But the unfamiliar scenes around her and the streets full of Xia Guo characters made it impossible for her to convince herself to look for food. And the most important thing was that this place was different from London. There were many people living here, very many people. people.
At this time, the vendors doing business in the early morning had already begun selling breakfast and fresh vegetables. The smell of steamed buns, fried dough sticks, etc. wafted all the way to the tip of Ariel's nose, making her swallow her saliva.
She had already cried a lot. She was very scared. She missed everyone in the orphanage and Ander very much.
"Ender...where are you?" Ariel whispered in a voice that could only be heard by herself.
In the end, she still couldn't survive the double torture of hunger and cold, and gradually lost consciousness.
At the end of her consciousness, she seemed to see another door, an ancient bronze door, appearing at her feet.

Lily returned to the second floor of the South Bank Theater. After cooperating with everyone to finish cleaning up, the search and rescue team set off again and headed to Waterloo Bridge.
Standing in front of the bridge, Lily motioned for everyone to wait, and lightly jumped onto the railing of the bridge, looking intently at the fog on the other side of the bridge. She could only see the middle of the bridge and the entrance to their side of the bridge from the South Bank Theater. situation, now she needs to observe the situation on the other side of the bridge to determine whether it is safe or not.
Before she set off, she informed everyone that she could briefly see the general situation 50 meters away.
After watching for a few seconds, Lily jumped off the railing and motioned for everyone to move on.
Sandra consciously came to the front of the team and took the lead towards Waterloo Bridge, while Dunn and Lily walked at the end.

In the hall of Embankment Station, Liu Shiqin stood there, looking at the messy compressed biscuit wrappers on the ground. She felt that she had found hope. Those wrappers were very conspicuous compared to the surrounding environment because they were so new. Moreover, part of the wrapping paper was the same as the package of compressed biscuits that Lily pushed to her.
Liu Shiqin had reason to judge that someone from Lily's orphanage had been here in the past few days.
She still couldn't find the map, which made her feel very frustrated.
She heard the roars and movements of the otherworldly creatures further north, which prevented her from searching north, so she walked east and south along the street and came to Embankment Station. Now she felt that she had come to the right place.
Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a jar of chocolates from the corner of her eye.
Chocolate...chocolate! ! !
Liu Shiqin likes chocolate very much. She likes it very much. Besides, she has been hungry for several hours now, so she pounced directly on the jar of chocolate.
She had never considered why the jar of chocolates could exist there safely.
If Dunn had been there, he would have waited quietly for Liu Shiqin to get the chocolate, and then just smile.
After a few minutes, Liu Shiqin walked on the Cross-Thames Railway from the Embankment to Waterloo Station as if her soul had been sucked out. She was very depressed and cursed the person who put the jar of dried chocolate into powder there.

"Sneeze..." Dunn sneezed for no reason while walking beside Lily.
Lily looked at Dunn strangely and asked inquiringly.
"I don't know, my nose suddenly felt itchy..." Dunn rubbed his nose and explained.
