Lu Li seemed to be trapped in delirium, yet as if rescued, lying on hard cold planks, enveloped by low temperatures and darkness.
Indistinct voices of conversation were hard to discern as they echoed around.
"Has he awoken?"
"Not yet..."
"You must bring him back to life..."
"I know, do you also think he's real?"
"...Exactly the same, have you noticed..."
"But... drifting down from upstream..."
"Wait until he wakes up..."
The conversation was intermittent, and realizing about to faint, Lu Li dragged himself into a dream.
Crash—crash—
The relentless waves day and night battered the reefs under Seaview Cliff.
Lu Li awoke from the dream, lying in a rocking chair under the Annie Tree.
In the distance, voices of conversation carried with the wind, Jimmy Siblings were building their new home.
Finding that unreal silhouette, Lu Li stared for a moment, then detached himself from the dream.
Lu Li gradually woke up.
