That afternoon, Lu Yu went to the quiet little bay behind the conservation center alone.
He took off his shoes and stepped on the cobblestones, which were warmed by the sun. He squatted down and put his hand into the sea water. Jin Jin swam over from the shallows and rubbed his fingertips with his dorsal fin.
"Found it. Grandpa found it."
Jin Jin gently swayed his tail fin. He looked down at his open palms, the dark golden lines dormant in the sunlight. He put his palms together, stood up, and strode back.
On the deck, Professor Zheng had already closed the cover again, and the joints of the stone slabs were covered with tarpaulin layer after layer. Professor Zheng was standing nearby smoking a cigarette. When he saw Lu Yu coming over, he put out his cigarette.
"The transfer procedures will be completed in two days."
"Yeah."
"Your dad, you have to talk to him."
"I know."
Lu Yu stood on the deck for a while, the sea breeze blowing the hair on his forehead into a mess. He lowered his head and glanced at the blue booklet in his hand. The last page of the booklet was blown open by the wind, and the line of writing left by his grandfather lay quietly in the sun.
"There's silence here."
