### **Title Analysis and Central Imagery**
1. **“Guixu”**
- In Miao legends, it is the place where souls return, alluding to Mozhu’s “fake death” and rebirth.
- It echoes the priest’s line in the prison-break bonus chapter: “Kirin child, Guixu awaits you.”
- It symbolizes their relationship as a deep-sea whirlpool, swallowing everything yet never being filled.
2. **“There Is Rain”**
- **Every turning point of fate takes place in the rain**:
- The damp corridor where they first meet in high school
- The stormy night Jiang Qingbai discovers fragments of the bone hairpin
- The cold, bleak execution ground on the day of the death sentence
- Rain is a metaphor for “tears,” and also a natural means of washing away evidence of crime.
A very nice book! The plot is very exciting and novel, and the writing is excellent. I came here for this title from the beginning. There are very few four-character book titles on Tomato. When I saw the title and introduction, I felt that DaDa's writing must be good. After reading the first chapter, I knew that my idea was right. The characters of the two protagonists are also very good. Now I am looking forward to the background setting. I hope DaDa insists on finishing it. I have read many good books before but the author has stopped writing them. I am waiting for DaDa to become famous. Then I will be one of the earliest readers (*^▽^*). So it must be updated, I believe it will gradually become popular in the future!
