Why it never ends

Chapter 906 Incapacitation

At this moment, everyone stopped talking and looked at the sun in silence.

It passed through the mist at a slow and certain speed, gradually illuminating the sky and the earth.

"I'm actually surprised that you came with us this time," Lin Jiao said softly, "You missed three weeks of club activities without even saying hello. I thought you didn't plan to show up again."

"Sorry, something happened at the time."

"How do you plan to spend the winter vacation?"

Hesta shook her head.

"We have several activities next semester-"

"I won't be in District 14 next semester." Hesta said. "After I finish my studies this semester, I may go somewhere else."

Lin Jiao glanced at Hesta - she had already guessed this result, but she didn't expect it to come so quickly.

"This is the last activity of the poetry club this semester, right?" Hesta looked at her, "So this should also be my last activity with the poetry club."

"You seem to be very concerned about these things." Hesta said.

"I heard some news," Lin Jiao said, "It's related to District 12. The Mother City over there seems to be on the verge of being disabled. I don't know if the Mercury Needle disaster has anything to do with it."

"It depends on the situation." Hesta whispered.

"As an ordinary person, isn't it instinctive to care about things that could kill you at any time?" Lin Jiao said with a hint of joking, "On the contrary, it's you, you always seem to be unsure of what's happening in the world around you. Care. Far away, near... it seems that what happens in the outside world has nothing to do with you, you only care about the matter at hand. "

"You guessed it," Lin Jiao smiled proudly and walked to the other side of Hesta, "There has been a big fuss about District 12 recently."

"I don't know." Hesta replied softly, "I haven't paid much attention to this aspect, but the recent rumors in this area-"

"Where are you going?" Before Hesta could answer, Lin Jiao had already told his guess, "District 12?"

Lin Jiao laughed: "Sixteen mother cities are from the same source. If one mother city will fall, then the remaining fifteen must be similar."

During the conversation, the early sun in the distance had completely passed through the mist on the mountains. There was a rustling sound passing by everyone's ears. It sounded like the sound of rain, but if you listen carefully, you will find that it was the wind blowing from the big trees. ran over the treetops.

In the distance, two club members took several cups of coffee from Xiang Hanshan and ran over to hand them to Lin Jiao and others. Hesta also reached out to take them.

"Is it true?"

Hesta frowned slightly.

Hestad was noncommittal: "You have many sources of information."

Hesta took a deep breath and looked at Lin Jiao: "...how do you know."

"The first time I heard this news was probably five or six years ago, when District 12 was in good shape." Lin Jiao interrupted Hesta, "I heard it from a very credible source. So I believe it is true."

Hesta finished the coffee in the paper cup and crumpled the quilt into a paper ball.

Everyone in the poetry club watched the sun slowly change from orange to dazzling golden in the wind, and then began to turn back down the mountain. Next, everyone will go back to the inn to have a reading club and help the innkeeper renovate a few rooms. After lunch, they will go to another mountain top, which is the best place for stargazing at night.

"I really sympathize with you city dwellers." Cheng Xiaoshu said, "Watching the sunrise on the mountain will move you like this. I see this kind of scenery every day in my hometown. The mountains here are still too short. It's hard to climb up." Not interesting."

Several people on the side asked Cheng Xiaoshu where her hometown was. After Cheng Xiaoshu answered, no one around her recognized her. She started to introduce it with the name of the province in a funny way, and everyone had a vague impression of it. Everyone asked each other about their place of origin. In this club of more than 20 people, there were members from all over the world. As soon as some people reported the place names, others reported the famous local specialties. Everyone enthusiastically shared the customs and customs of various places, and the listeners were sometimes happy and sometimes sad.

"What about you, Jane, were you born in District Three?"

"should be."

"Where is your hometown in District 3?"

Hesta was lost in thought, which made Chengshu wonder if her lingua franca was not authentic enough and that she had used the wrong word. She described it again: "It's where you grew up."

"From how old to how old?"

"...There's no need to break it down so finely." Cheng Chengshu turned back to look at her other friends, "My hometown, my hometown, am I right?"

Another person also leaned over and said, "You have been in District 14 for so long, do you feel homesick?"

"Occasionally."

"Whichever place you are thinking of is your hometown."

Everyone was waiting for Hesta's answer, but she still didn't speak. At this moment she finally realized what everyone was asking, and time seemed to suddenly go back to two years ago, to the days and nights she spent at Ava's house.

At that time, she asked Ava, is there anyone in the world who was born without a hometown?

Ava said, yes, and there are many.

"Is this question difficult to answer?" Another person asked, "Or did you move around a lot when you were a child? You didn't live in one place for more than half a year?"

"No." Hesta shook his head, "I don't have a hometown. I don't have a hometown."

Cheng Chengshu was startled when she heard this answer. Just as she was about to ask more questions, Lin Jiao from behind the team called Hesta over to do some hard work. Shu Shu looked at Hesta's leaving figure, thinking about her answer just now. She didn't hear any resentment, contempt or resistance in Hesta's voice, as if Jane just made a brief judgment without any emotion.

No hometown.

I have no hometown.

But...how can a person not have a hometown?

……

At night, when everyone walked to another stargazing point, Teacher Chen was already there.

People happily came forward to greet Teacher Chen - she had participated in several poetry club activities before, and every time the poetry club needed the teacher's endorsement for the activities, Chen Beiyi was always very happy to sign the document, so everyone was very happy. like her.

Hesta watched everyone gather around Chen Beiyi, but she still stood there without moving.

Teacher Chen brought another instructor from the astronomy club over, and that person and Lin Jiao started assembling the telescope together. At this moment, the sky is full of stars. Some people have already recognized the Winter Triangle with the help of Orion's "belt" and are excited to share their findings with their friends.

Teacher Chen walked to Hestad and said, "Good evening."

Hesta nodded: "It's not easy to go up the mountain."

"They helped me find a sedan." Teacher Chen said softly, "But even walking from the steps here took me a lot of effort."
