After a while, Gu Ren’s deep voice sounded from the walkie talkie: “Stand there, I will co to you.”
Ye Zhi: “Okay.”
Ye Zh held the walkie-talkie and waited on the spot as they agreed.
Gu Ren walked forward slowly. He had a good mory and was able to see the entire route clearly in his mind. He covered almost two-third of the space very quickly.
Gu Ren stopped walking, when he was standing on the edge of the unexplored area of the maze. Since he had no map of this place, he had to explore and find the correct path by trial and error.
He began to walk slowly with great attention. The path was especially twisted. Wherever he went, he ran into a foam wall.
However, Gu Ren was feeling calm. He kept walking slowly and finally stopped at so point. He had no idea where he was right now.
What Gu Ren and Ye Zhi didn’t know was they were only separated by a foam wall. Gu Ren stood on one side of the wall, while Ye Zhi stood on the other side.
On opposite sides of the black foam wall, Gu Ren and Ye Zhi stood with their backs facing each other.
This area without a map seed to divide the whole maze into two separate zones
Ye Zhi stood in silence. She picked up the walkie talkie and put it to her ear.
But no sound ca from walkie talkie for a long ti. There was nothing else other than silence.
Ye Zhi was blindfolded. With her vision obscured, ti and space seed to have co to standstill.
She didn’t know how much ti had passed or where Gu Ren was right now. Haunted by the darkness, even ti seed to have stopped.
Ye Zhi suddenly whispered: “Gu Ren, I am here.”
As they practiced at ho, as long as he heard her voice, he would walk towards her without hesitation.
Soon, Ye Zhi spoke again. This ti, her voice sounded a little stronger and louder: “Gu Ren, I am here.”
Ye Zhi’s voice drifted towards the tall foam wall and reached Gu Ren’s ears.
Gu Ren slowly turned around, raised his hand to touch the direction of the sound. The feeling from his palm told him that there was a foam wall in front of him.
And Ye Zhi’s voice ca from behind the wall.
Gu Ren suddenly smiled. It turned out that she was near him. Gu Ren imdiately strode away and followed Ye Zhi’s voice.
Ye Zhi shouted a few more tis and then stopped talking. At this mont, she suddenly heard so noises. At first the sound was very quiet and vague, but it began to beco clear with ti.
In the silence, Ye Zhi seed to hear the sound of shoes lightly stepping on the ground. Footsteps were neither fast nor slow.
For Ye Zhi, it was as if the beautiful tone filled the silence of the night.
Ye Zhi’s heart moved.
Is it Gu Ren?
Ye Zhi continued to listen carefully. The sound of footsteps seed to be getting closer and closer to her.
However, the sound of footsteps stopped abruptly and the surroundings beca completely silent as if no sound was ever there.
Ye Zhi thought that she had heard wrong. She felt that It was just an illusion. She was a little disappointed. She was just about to start speaking again.
“Gu Ren, I am…”
At this ti, a familiar voice broke through the silence. It felt as if winter had co to an end, and spring had just appeared from around the corner.
“I’m coming.”
Ye Zhi recognized Gu Ren’s voice and smiled softly.
Even though Gu Ren was blindfolded and couldn’t see Ye Zhi’s face, he could still imagine Ye Zhi’s delicate face and familiar outline.
