Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 253 Code

"If it's not, then it's not. It's nothing. Why are you sighing?" Wu Xunsheng asked curiously.

Tie Hongyan thought that if she told the reason for her sigh, she would bring up the incident of Wu Xunsheng being bullied. Since she had just said "let the past be the past", she couldn't bring it up now. So she said, "It's nothing. I sighed when I was misled..." Then she remembered how she felt when she couldn't find Wu Xunsheng before, so she said, "I was really anxious when I couldn't find you just now. What if I don't know where you are when I want to find you in the future?"

Wu Xunsheng thought for a moment and said, "If you can't find me... just fly a kite high up so I know you're looking for me. I'll look for you by the kite's position. If I can't find you, I'll fly a kite again."

Tie Hongyan smiled and said, "Well, that's a good idea! We can fly kites when we can't find each other. But we have to make it clear that once we get separated, both of us must remember to look at the sky! If one person flies the kite high and the other person doesn't look up, then it's all in vain, isn't it?"

"You're right. We agreed to just look up at the sky."

"But..." Tie Hongyan thought of another question, "What if someone else was also flying kites at the time? Wouldn't we be misled?"

"That's true, but... if other people are also flying kites, it wouldn't be such a coincidence that they are also flying the ones we make, right? If you're worried... how about this, we add a very long piece of paper under the kite as a mark?" Wu Xunsheng said.

"Okay, it's settled. That extra long piece of paper is the missing person marker."

“But if there is no kite, you will have to wait for a long time if you look for it or make it now,” Wu Xunsheng said casually.

"Of course. Who would carry a kite around with them everyday? This method is only used when you can't find the person after searching for a long time."

"Yes, it can't be used when you are in a hurry." Wu Xunsheng said with a smile.

At this moment, a dazzling light suddenly appeared in front of the two of them, and they pieced the rubble together again. After they came out of the state of putting the rubble together, Wu Xunsheng asked: "What if we are very far away and can't see the kite released by the other party at all?"

Tie Hongyan frowned and said, "Why does it have to be so far away?"

"I said 'if'."

"I don't like this 'if'. If it's really very far away, we can only look for it everywhere. Then we will have to mark everywhere and see if the other party can happen to see it." Tie Hongyan said.

"What mark?"

"Let's draw a kite! How about drawing it in the shape of the kite we made together? Like this..." As he said that, Tie Hongyan picked up a stone and drew a simple kite on the ground with a few strokes. The pattern was exactly the same as the simple kite they played with together.

Wu Xunsheng also picked up a stone, drew a picture on the ground, and said, "Is that it?"

"Yeah!" Tie Hongyan nodded, "Is it easy to draw?"

"It's a good painting. Look, it only takes a few strokes to draw one!" As he said that, Wu Xunsheng drew several kite patterns on the ground.

"We have agreed that this pattern is our secret code. It's a secret and can't be told to anyone else, okay?" Tie Hongyan said mysteriously.
