The heavy rain poured down, and the mountains seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist.
A car was driving on a winding mountain road. Heavy rain reduced the visibility to only five meters.
Kamikawa Shun sat in the passenger seat and yawned sleepily. The similar scene for several hours in a row was visually tiring.
He looked at Toru Amuro next to him. After driving for such a long time, he was still in good condition, with no signs of fatigue at all.
"How far is it?"
"There are still 15 kilometers." Hoshino Xiu from the back seat called back.
He zoomed in on the map on the tablet. The winding and rugged mountain road was like a slender rope wrapped around the mountain forest, and they were driving on this rope.
After school on Friday, they packed up their things and took a flight overnight to Hokkaido.
The hometown of wild wolves is in the mountains of Hokkaido.
They rested in the hotel for half the night, and then rented a car and set off early this morning. The weather was originally sunny, but it started to rain heavily as soon as they drove into the mountains.
Heavy rain made visibility very low, and the mountain road was rugged. For safety reasons, Toru Amuro did not drive too fast.
After sitting for several hours, Shun Kamikawa was really bored. It was raining heavily and he couldn't even see the scenery. He looked at Toru Amuro and said:
"Are you tired after driving for so long? How about I drive?"
Toru Amuro rolled her eyes, "Come on, with the way you are yawning all the time, if you drive, you will probably get into a car accident."
¡°I just look sleepy, but actually I¡¯m not sleepy.¡± Kamikawa Shun finished speaking and yawned on the spot.
Toru Amuro: ""
"If I hadn't been next to you, I might have believed your lies"
This guy is just too busy to talk to someone else
Hoshino Osamu did not join in their chat. He looked out the window. The rain outside the window showed no sign of stopping. The heavy rain all morning had left the soil in the mountains in an extremely moist state.
He zoomed in on the map on the tablet. Now they were still on the cement road. As they went deeper and deeper, ordinary mobile phones could no longer receive signals. After a while, when the main road disappears, we will have to drive onto a dirt road. It will be very bumpy by then, but it will not be so easy.
He didn¡¯t get much sleep last night, so he was a little sleep deprived. He put the tablet down, closed his eyes and prepared to rest for a while.
Toru Amuro saw Osamu Hoshino in the back seat preparing to take a rest, so he turned up the air conditioner in the car.
Although it is spring now, it is easy to catch a cold if you are not careful.
He looked at Shun Kamikawa: "You should also take a nap, I don't know how long it will take to arrive."
The wild wolf only gave an approximate location, which was quite large. Even with positioning and navigation, it was not easy to find a group of villages hidden in the mountains that had little communication with the outside world.
"Okay, call me when you're tired."
The car suddenly became quiet, and Toru Amuro slowed down the car to let them rest more peacefully.
He looked at the rainy and foggy road ahead, quite absent-mindedly.
Although Yelang said that there are very few people in the village who can use tattoos like him, the very few does not mean that there are none. They were well prepared for this trip, but if there was a conflict with the villagers, it would be difficult to predict.
¡°And such closed villages are generally extremely xenophobic and wary of outsiders. Whether they can enter the village is still a question.
Originally, it was enough to bring Shun Kamikawa with him. After all, Shun Kamikawa was an insider and had the ability to protect himself. But Hoshino Osamu hadn't gone out to play much for a long time except going to school every day. It happened that he was going on a long trip this time, so Toru Amuro was afraid that he would get bored, so he took him with him.
But the closer he got, the more he worried that he couldn't protect him, and doubted whether the decision he made was not safe enough.
But now that we are here, there is no point in thinking about it now.
¡°It¡¯s just that next time, it would be better for him to think more comprehensively.
The cement road reaches the end, and the car enters the muddy mountain road. This mountain road is completely unrepaired and full of potholes. As soon as Toru Amuro drove up, Kamikawa was suddenly awakened.
"Where are you?" He rubbed his eyes, his sleepiness quickly subsided.
¡°Now that we¡¯ve entered the path, our destination should be nearby.¡±
It is also the first time for Toru Amuro to come here, so he doesn¡¯t know the specific destination. There were very few people living here, and it was almost impossible to see any houses. Even if he wanted to find someone to ask for directions, he couldn't.
"Let's go along this road first, drive slowly, and then I'll look around to see if there's anything that often happens?Take the path. "
They are going to a closed village. They must not drive to the village entrance with great fanfare. It is best to quietly go there and observe. After getting a general understanding, they can then find a reason to sneak into the village.
They only know that the village is roughly in this area, but they don¡¯t know where it is specifically.
If it doesn¡¯t rain, they can directly use a drone to find it in the air, which is convenient, fast and obvious. It's just that they were unlucky. It rained heavily as soon as they entered the mountains. Although the rain has become lighter now, it shows no sign of stopping.
Kamikawa Shun carefully observed both sides of the road, and then noticed something unusual with his sharp eyes.
"There is a small road there, you park the car and I will take a look."
Toru Amuro also saw the path. He stopped the car and looked at the rain in the sky through the front windshield.
The rain is still very heavy, even if you hold an umbrella, you can easily get wet.
¡°Would you like to walk along this dirt road first and then turn back and take a look when the rain has lightened?¡±
"No, my umbrella is quite big and it won't wet me."
Kamikawa opened his umbrella and got out of the car, walking towards the relatively obvious path.
The ground was muddy, and he stepped on mud after just two steps. Fortunately, he was wearing boots, so he didn't worry about water getting in.
Someone walked this path not long ago, and the footprints on the ground are still clear.
Although the footprints have been submerged by the rain, you can still tell that they were left by clogs after walking on them.
Looking at the footprints along the way, Kamikawa Shun had a rough estimate of the degree of modernization of that village. However, an estimate was just an estimate. We had to see what the actual situation was.
This path went downwards, and there were many shrubs around it. Shun Kamikawa held an umbrella and pushed aside the rain-covered shrubs and walked downwards. When he reached a mountainside with a wide view, he could vaguely see the lower part. There is a village.
This village is located on a flat land at the foot of a mountain, surrounded by mountains like a bowl. There are no roads around, so it is a natural hiding place.
Kamikawa instantly turned on the telephoto mode of his glasses and looked at the village at the foot of the mountain.
This village is located by the lake. There are wooden houses in twos and threes surrounding the lake. It is hazy in rain and fog. At first glance, it has a sense of otherworldly tranquility.
But if you look closely, you can see that this village is too quiet. Shun Kamikawa didn't see anyone after watching it for ten minutes. It looked like a ghost village. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
