Chapter 5482 (five thousand four hundred and eighty-two) mesh

The Gray Hand Man asked, “If it comes, will you think about it going away?”

That person said, “That’s not it. I just said that in that situation, for something that hasn’t come yet, I shouldn’t think about leaving. Even if it comes, I shouldn’t think about leaving in my dream, because I feel that if it comes, I will be trapped in that web forever and will never get out.”

The Gray Hand asked again: “What happened next?”

“The man who said ‘The needle is the stone, the stone is the needle’ asked me…if I knew why this web appeared.” said the man.

“Did you answer?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“No.” The man said, “I don’t know why it… appeared.”

The Gray Hand asked again, “You didn’t say anything?”

“I was… so scared that I didn’t dare to say anything.” said the man.

“Frightened by what?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“I was frightened by the silence before, and now, I was frightened by his…voice,” the man said.

“What happened to his voice?” asked the Gray Hand.

“Like a needle,” the man said.

“Sound? Sound like a needle?” asked the Gray Hand Man. “Why do you say that?”

The man continued, “Because…when he said each word, then…there was a line on the net that jumped up. Those lines have always been connected. When I say it jumped up, I don’t mean that it would break and rise up, but…it’s…how should I put it? It’s a line that was originally straight, and at this time the middle…bulged upwards…”

The Gray Hands asked again, “What does that have to do with his voice being like a needle?”

“Oh… I haven’t finished yet, I haven’t explained it clearly.” The man said, “It’s just… one of the lines on the web, when the middle part bulged, I felt… like it was pricked up by… a needle, but there was no real needle there, I felt… that… that was like the words that popped out when he spoke, like a needle… pricked up the line on the web, causing the middle part to bulge.”

The Gray Hand Man asked, “You were scared and didn’t say anything, so how did he react?”

“He told me to answer him,” the man said. “Did you answer?” the Gray Hand asked.

“I answered this time,” the man said, “but I didn’t say anything… substantial, because I… really don’t know, so… I just said I don’t know.”

The Gray Hand asked, “What happened to him after hearing this?”

“He said… whether I was looking at that… web.” the man said.

“Did you answer?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“I say… I don’t know if what I saw was the web he mentioned.” said the man.

The Gray Hand asked again, “What did he say?”

“He asked me to tell you what I saw,” the man said.

“You said that?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Yes,” the man said, “I just described… the web I saw.”

“Where’s he?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“He asked me if I saw any other web-like things?” the man said.

“Did you answer?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Yes, I said no.” said the man.

“What’s next?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Then he said… since I only saw this web-like object, how could I not know whether what I saw was the web he mentioned?” said the man.
