Chapter 36: The Encounter Beneath the Upside-Down Waterfall! (Please Read On!!)
One punch.

One punch.

Another punch.

Standing under the waterfall, Hawke used his pure body to resist the impact of the water, while firmly swinging his fists under the resistance of the water.

Every time he threw a punch, the cross-section of water that came into contact with his fist would pause for a brief moment, less than a second.

but……

not enough!

He didn't want the waterfall to pause for his fist.

What he wanted was the water of the waterfall to tremble under his fist, or even flow backwards.

Hawke felt that his demands were not high.

After all, the waterfall in front of us is not the Lushan Waterfall. If we compare this waterfall with the Lushan Waterfall, it is probably not even one-tenth as majestic as the Lushan Waterfall.

So, is this excessive?

That's not too much.

But it was obvious that his idea still made the waterfall in front of him angry.

What level you let me flow back.

Do you think you are Poseidon?
And even Poseidon, the King of the Sea, can't do it. He is the King of the Sea and controls the sea water. How can he control my freshwater waterfall?
and so……

The waterfall was angry, and under Hawk's persistent punches, the speed of the water flow increased almost at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Hawke felt the waterfall, which was now becoming angry, with an expressionless face.

But in the microcosm, on the completely illuminated Phoenix constellation map, a fire phoenix was slowly emerging.

He decided.

He will leave when the waterfall in front of him reverses.

Even though it’s only a few days until school starts.

But it doesn't matter.

Again.

He is an orphan. I guess no one will care about him even if he doesn't go to school after school starts.

But that’s fine.

No one cares about him, and he has no one to care about.

and so……

The fighting spirit in Hawke's eyes burned brightly.

"bring it on!"

The waterfall was completely enraged, and the water flow became even more rapid and violent after Hawk's provocation.

"Boom!"

“…Is there thunder?”

At the very edge of Cunningham Falls Nature Reserve, north of Hawke's waterfall, Gwen, who had just entered the nature reserve forest, heard a roar coming from afar and subconsciously looked up.

But the primitive trees that blocked out the sun blocked the sky, and only sunlight shone in through the gaps between the leaves. However, the mottled light spots added a bit of weirdness to the already quiet forest.

When Gwen saw that she could no longer see the sky, she withdrew her gaze.

Gwen, wearing a conspicuous white windbreaker and a pair of outdoor sports shoes, took out her mobile phone, turned on the screen and looked at the location map that appeared on the screen.

into the eye.

Although the two spots of light were far apart, they were already visible on the same screen.

One of them shows where Gwen is currently located.

another one……

Gwen took a deep breath, grabbed the trekking poles he had bought after arriving in Thurmont yesterday afternoon, encouraged himself in his heart, and walked towards the direction of another light spot.

At first, Gwen thought Hawke's phone was simply stolen and didn't take it seriously.

After all, she is also busy working a summer job.

But the next day, Dr. Connors suddenly asked whether she had given the gift to Hawke. Gwen felt a little strange, so she went to Hawke's new apartment again after get off work.

result……

The envelope she had placed on the sofa was still lying quietly on the sofa, without even moving.

For some reason, Gwen suddenly felt her heart panic at that moment.

She immediately called her father George, hoping that her father could see if he could find Hawke through the New York Police Department.

George didn't think much of it at first, but seeing Gwen's worried face, he thought for a moment and decided to inform his colleagues at the Queens Precinct. His jurisdiction was in Manhattan, and it was possible to investigate a missing person outside the Queens Precinct, but he still needed to inform his colleagues there.

The result was that no such person existed.

Hawke seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth.

Hawke also didn't have a credit card or a driver's license, and his cell phone wasn't sure if it was stolen or had run out of battery, so he couldn't find it.

To put it bluntly, Hawke is like a transparent person living in modern life.

No family.

No socializing.

I don't even have a friend. Even after my colleagues at the Queens Police Department filed a case, they didn't know where to start the investigation.

Because no one could provide the last place Hawk was seen, and even after asking several of Hawk's classmates, no one cared to ask what happened to Hawk.

Uh……

Except for Gwen.

Until the day before yesterday, George, who had just returned home, looked at his daughter who had been coming home later than him these days and had been out looking for Hawke. He finally couldn't help but ask the question he had always wanted to ask: "Gwen, are you in love with this Hawke?"

Gwen, who had just returned from a cemetery in Queens, was stunned when she heard George's words, and then gave an answer.

"Dad, Hawke and I are just friends."

"..."

By the time George came to his senses, Gwen had already run upstairs.

George blinked and couldn't help but look at his wife Helen who was standing beside him without saying a word.

"Friend? Do you believe that?"

"It doesn't matter whether I believe it or not."

Helen, who had always been a good wife and mother, smiled at Gwen's back as she went upstairs, and then said to George, "But I know you can't keep your daughter."

George was confused.

Gwen returned to her room and threw herself on the bed, thinking about Hawke, who had not been heard from for more than ten days. Just when she had an indescribable feeling, her cell phone suddenly rang.

Gwen lit it casually and glanced at it.

next second.

She sat up suddenly from the bed.

This message was not a spam message, but another remote login message sent from her mobile phone account.

Gwen quickly clicked on the text message link.

This time the signal was no longer within an approximate range, but was accurate to a specific location.

The bottom of a waterfall in Cunningham Falls National Park, Maryland.

This is also why Gwen is here.

soon.

As the sound of flowing water got closer, Gwen, who was already sweating profusely, became more energetic and even quickened his pace.

And under the waterfall.

After Hawk had delivered the 9,999th punch, he retracted his fist and threw the final punch. The phoenix shadow behind him seemed to be real.
