Cheng Yangze froze at her words, the delighted smile on his face instantly stiffening.
"Wh-what do you mean, Zhou Zi?"
Seeing this, Zhou Zi seemed very pleased with Cheng Yangze's reaction. Her smile grew more mysterious and gleeful, and she said nothing more.
Just then, the Drop Tower slowly started up.
They sat in a row on the Drop Tower as the machine slowly carried them into the sky.
Only when the scenery below had almost shrunk into tiny, indistinguishable black dots did the machine gradually stop.
They seemed to have reached the highest point.
Cheng Yangze still couldn't shake Zhou Zi's eerie words. Something seemed to occur to him, and his face unwittingly grew a little pale.
At the same time, Cheng Yangze heard Ge Yue whisper to "Ke Yue" beside him, "I remember now, too, Yueyue. We'll never be separated again..."
Why were his teammates acting strange, one after another?
Cheng Yangze gritted his teeth and ordered himself to calm down.
A moment earlier, he had recalled a news report he had happened to see a long time ago-
While riding a Drop Tower at an amusement park, a woman's long hair had become caught in the machinery at the top. Unable to free herself, she had her scalp torn off when the ride plummeted at high speed and died despite emergency treatment.
Cheng Yangze wasn't sure whether Zhou Zi was facing the same situation.
He tried raising his hand and, sure enough, discovered that Zhou Zi's long hair was caught in a gap in the machinery at the very top of the Drop Tower.
Panic instantly gripped him, but his movements never faltered. He raised his hand higher, reaching as far as he possibly could.
At last, he could touch a little of Zhou Zi's long hair.
