1277 Alice, say, what have you seen?

“…I don’t know where this place is either.”

She lowered her head and tidied up her skirt. Although there was no ugly wrinkle on her head, Alice still tossed for more than a minute before she spoke hesitantly. Then she thought of something dead and added: "But I know the earth, Fantasy Country is on the border of an eastern country on the earth. Unfortunately, I have been living in Fantasy Country and have never been to the world outside the barrier. It turns out that this is the earth outside the barrier of Fantasy Country?"

I often listen to Lingxian’s popular science, and Levi also has a certain degree of understanding of the place they lived in in the past called Fantasy Village.

Fantasy Village is indeed as Alice said, located somewhere on the earth, completely blocked from the outside by a powerful barrier, and can be regarded as another world on the earth but insulated from other parts of the earth. In Fantasy Village, except for a very small number of humans, most of the lives of gods, monsters, and even ghosts and ghosts that have disappeared from the earth and exist only in various legends of human beings. Among the non-human lives in Fantasy Village, some of the non-human lives in the world that originally lived in the Human Society.

In the cracks of the club, as the living environment deteriorates, they choose to enter the Fantasy Country. The other part is that they have lived in the Fantasy Country from the beginning and have never been outside. For them, Fantasy Country is the whole world. Kaguya and Suzunxian are the first type, especially Kaguya lived on the earth a thousand years ago. Later, in order to avoid the tracking of the Moon Capital, they took her close friends to the isolated Fantasy Country. And this girl named Alice sounds like the latter, who has always lived in the Fantasy Country.

"I just woke up, and I haven't figured out what happened yet. I'd better wait until I go out and see it. But I want to ask, can you tell me what's going on?"

Levi pointed to the bed behind him where he had just gotten up from his head, and had a headache. What's this? He thought that when he met the owner of the house, he could ask about the whole story, but in the end, he was regarded as a life-saving straw by someone. Now Levi has basically no expectations for this girl named Alice. It's not that Alice is unreliable, but that the general situation Levi has guessed a little. This beautiful girl with short blonde hair is probably actually sympathetic to him.

"I saw you in the forest this morning and brought you back."

Perhaps I also found that I was a little wrong to ask a patient who had just woken up from a coma. Alice told Levi everything she knew, just such a simple sentence.

“This morning?”

Levi looked out the window again. He felt something was wrong outside the window at first. At this moment, when he heard Alice say that, he immediately found the problem he had not grasped before.

Since Alice said she brought herself back in the forest in the morning, the subtext is that it is not morning now. And according to the angle of the light outside through the window, if it is afternoon, the orientation of the plants outside the house will seem a little wrong.

Among plants, most species containing chlorophyll have phototaxis, which is a characteristic of approaching light. This characteristic is most directly reflected in algae that can swim in water. Large trees with hard rhizomes will also reflect this characteristic from the density of branches and leaves. For example, the direction where more sunlight is exposed during the day is often the direction where the branches and leaves of trees grow denser and more prosperously. This allows plants to obtain more sunlight to better perform photosynthesis.

Although Levi only teaches English as the simplest liberal arts in school, his past experience as a killer has taught him many experiences of survival and concealment in the wild, such as the characteristics of plants and the habits of animals. Although these seem to be just inconspicuous small factors in the environment, in the field, in the end, these small factors combined affect the success or failure of the task. So although they are not science teachers, these universal laws about nature have become an instinctive judgment in Levi's mind that is similar to conditioned reflexes. As soon as Alice talks about the present time, Levi immediately discovered that the growth of plants outside the window is inconsistent with the phototaxis in common sense, which confirms Levi's first impression when he woke up. This forest is not simple.

"By the way, Margot..."

"Alice."

Alice asked Levi to call her name directly, but her faint expression and tone did not have the shyness of making others call her name directly. Yes, she was a stranger she had first met, and even if she had known something about this girl from others, she still couldn't change the fact that they were strangers to each other. Levi also knew something. It seemed that in the Fantasy Village, the people living in the village were used to calling each other by names. Even a loyal and rigid person like Suzuny, who was called Kaguya, was also a "princess" or "princess Kaguya". She had never heard Kaguya call her "Penglai Mountain Princess". It was obviously the honorific title that the ministers should use to the Lord.

Alice took the initiative to call her name, perhaps because she felt that her last name was too long and a little difficult to pronounce. Levi didn't know that he guessed so casually that he was right. He just threw the dart on the table that was in the wrong way and ended up in the red heart. The reason why Alice took the initiative to call Levi was really tired of the pain of being wrong when others called her last name.

Of course, Alice won't explain to Levi. Don't call me Alice Megatron or something. How can a girl say such words?

"Alice, when you saw me in the forest, were there anyone else around me?"

When asked about this, Levi was a little nervous at the beginning, so he didn't ask Eve where he was going immediately.

Why? Thinking about the naked look on Eve when she was in a different space, she would be embarrassed to be a normal person. Since she was unconscious and was rescued by Alice, if Eve was together, she would definitely be unable to escape. She hugged her and was rescued by someone, and at least she looked like a girl... Alas, did she have made a big mistake without knowing it before, and she was unforgivable? Why did all the bad things come together today, just like God torture her?
