Dear Anna:

   We have reached the Lennon Islands.

  Everything is fine here. Aunt Mary and I are temporarily staying at Aunt Roseanne's house. She saw you when you were very young and almost took me for you.

  The beach on the island is very beautiful, the port is as prosperous as the former Rodster port, there are many people here, but not as fast-paced as Belfast.

  Aunt Mary, I...everyone miss you very much.

  Are you really not coming? We are all here.

  How is Mr. Lu Li recently? Is he still in Belfast?

   Also, don't abuse the power of the inner world, Lu Li is not that vulnerable...

  —Jojo in September? ? No. 14 Shanin Street, Tambour City, Lennon Islands

"may I handle it in this way?"

  Jojo pushed the parchment to the desk.

  【Can do it】

  A piece of shredded paper floats up, and soon another one floats up: [Very good]

   "The teacher taught us how to write letters at the academy."

  The praised Qiaoqiao said with a smile, remembering that Lu Li was dead, and became depressed again, "Why don't you tell Anna directly?"

  The fluttering shredded paper forms a sentence pattern: [I, you, as far as it is concerned, may, not exist]

"What's the meaning?"

  Jojo didn't get an answer, she shook her drowsy head, she stood up and reopened the window, and the fresh sea breeze blew into the room to wake her up.

   Looking beyond the canopy, I could vaguely see the lighthouse standing on the shore on the other side of the woods.

   Looking back on the bed, Lu Li still didn't answer.

"are you still there?"

【Um】

   "I'm going to mail the letter now?"

【it is good】

  Jojo first checked the purse tied to her body, then opened the biscuit box and took out a dozen shillings worth more than ten dollars folded inside, grabbed the shredded paper and put it in her pocket, and walked out of the door with the parchment.

   Kacha.

   closed the door, Jojo went back downstairs. Aunt Mary sat sideways on the sofa, talking to Aunt Roseanne in the kitchen.

   "Aunt Mary, I wrote a sheepskin letter, do you want to tell Anna?" Jojo came to Aunt Mary who looked at her.

   "Can you give me a look?"

"certainly."

  Aunt Mary took the parchment that had dried up

   "You wrote very well, I have nothing to add." Mary said softly and asked Aunt Roseanne in the kitchen: "Aunt Roseanne, where is the nearest post office?"

   "1 Shanin Street is."

  Aunt Mary took out her wallet, and Jojo refused: "I have money on me."

   "Take it, you can buy some daily necessities back, the prices here are also rising, it's never wrong to buy some early..."

"OK."

  Jojo accepted the 100 shillings from Aunt Mary: "I want to take a walk outside by the way."

   Not only sending letters, she also had to find a way to see Lu Li.

   "But the food is almost ready."

  An old voice came from the kitchen, and Aunt Roshan, who was wearing an apron, came out with a spoon.

  Jojo was a little apologetic: "I'm a little seasick, just keep it for me."

   "Young people should be familiar with the neighborhood." Aunt Mary said for Jojo.

   "Does Jojo know anyone in Queen's Island?" Aunt Roseanne asked.

  Jojo shook her head. …

   "A lot of outsiders have come to the island recently, and the police station can't handle it..." Aunt Roseanne was a little worried.

   "Don't worry, Aunt Roseanne, I'm a girl who grew up in a slum."

   is also someone who has experienced the Shadow Swamp Ability God incident.

   is also accompanied by an exorcist whose title is the one who sounded the death knell of the evil god.

  Aunt Mary agreed to let her come back before it started to get dark.

   Witnessing Jojo going out, Aunt Roshan said worriedly, "It's so unsafe to let a girl run outside."

   "Jojo is not that weak, she is taking care of me on the boat, don't worry Aunt Roseanne..."

   The communication in the living room continued, the breeze was blowing the curtains.

  …

   "Lu Li, are you still there?"

   Stone Road Street, Jojo asked in a low voice, and then felt the wind blow with the palm of his pocket.

  The reassured Jojo first went to the post office at the end of the street and sent the parchment by express - it is expected to be delivered to Belfast within a month.

  Jojo asked about the exorcists around her, and planned to visit the nearest one.

  The three major organizations also exist, but it is strange that they are not very good in the word of mouth of the locals...

   In front of the house of the first exorcist, Jojo knocked on the door.

  An old man opened the door, Jojo hesitated a little, and followed the old exorcist into the house.

   Compared to Qiaoqiao's hesitation, Lu Li thought he could help solve his own problems. The older the true exorcists are, the more valuable they are—because they possess the knowledge itself.

   "I want to know how to see ghosts."

  Jojo asked directly without wasting time. When the old exorcist asked the reason, she replied, "My brother died, but I feel like he's by my side..."

  The cloudy eyes of the old exorcist swept around: "That's his luck, he will leave with time..."

   "I want to see it."

   "Son, you are hurting yourself and your brother by doing this... Now he is just a ghost that will dissipate at any time, being seen by you means he has become a ghost, and your contact with him will also hurt..."

   "I know what you said." Jojo replied firmly.

   But the old exorcist was reluctant to tell the method anyway.

  Qiaoqiao had to reveal the truth: "His name is Lu Li, and he solved the evil **** himself in Ellen Peninsula a month ago, but I don't know why he died and found me... I want to know the reason."

   "The exorcist who sounded the death knell of the evil god?" The old exorcist said Lu Li's title in surprise: "I know him..."

   Lu Li has some nostalgia, another kind of nostalgia: the old order has not collapsed at this moment.

  The old exorcist believed Jojo, and went back to the bedroom to take out a silver ring: "Take it, you can see your brother."

  Jojo took the ring and hesitated before putting it on, but still put this men's ring on his middle finger.

   She saw the illusory soul and felt sad: "You really died..."

   "Why did you come to the Lennon Islands?"

   The curious old exorcist interrupted Jojo's sentimentality.

   "Because the Lennon Islands are safe."

   "You came at the wrong time..."

   "What do you mean?" Jojo asked keenly aware of something.

   The old exorcist just shook his head: "I don't know if that will happen... You can take it as a babble of a delirium old man. But if something really happened..."

   "Run high."

  Jojo didn't want to go back with the riddle, but he wouldn't say more no matter how he asked the old exorcist--because his knowledge was equally limited, and it was just intuition that he felt uneasy.

   This casts a haze for Jojo, who came to the Lennon Islands to start a new life.

   And when Jojo was about to leave, the outlines of her and the old exorcist were like a mirror being shattered and cracked.

   Before Lu Li realized what had happened, the crack spread to the whole house and shattered.

  Crash-Crash-

  The waves crashed against the reef, and a pure black stone lay quietly beside the cliff in the cave.
