Chapter 255 Face–to–Face, Cecelia With Her Brother

The soil was too dry. Adam took out his self–defense dagger and continued to dig, circling around the tree roots.

He knelt on the ground, not knowing how long he had been digging, how many holes he had dug, until the tip of the dagger hit something metallic.

The sound was distinctly different!

He continued, and indeed unearthed a metallic box.

The box was rusty, with unclear patterns on its surface. He used the dagger to pry it open.

Due to the passage of time, the box had been exposed to mud and water, and its contents had mixed with soil and rust.

He emptied everything from inside the box, searching through the mud. Wooden items had long decayed, some plastic objects had become brittle and fragile, breaking upon touch.

After searching for a while, he finally found something that hadn’t corroded.

It was a metal tube, as thick as a pen and as long as a finger. He scraped off the dirt on top, rinsed it with bottled water several times, and finally figured out what it was.

It was a brass whistle!

Yes, a whistle!

Adam cleaned it, wiped it dry with his clothes, and put it to his lips to blow.

“Shhh–Shhh-”

The whistle could still make a sound, exactly like the sound of the whistle in his mind.

As the whistle’s sound echoed, he couldn’t control himself anymore, tears welled up in his eyes.

He missed his family too much!

His mother, his sister, where were they now?

Returning from Cherry Ridge to Center City, it was already around 5:30 PM. He sent his location to Cecelia and went ahead to wait for her at a private restaurant.
