The father wrote this passage at the end of the message: "For your happiness, I hope you can escape from here. You can't escape from the corridor, there should be assistants in the corridor to watch on shift. You have to escape from the window, as long as the sheets and curtains are tied together as a rope it should be fine, but once you get to the ground make sure you pull the rope off and hide.Don't be afraid, they didn't expect you to have the courage to do such a daring act, and they didn't worry about you running away. They thought that neither you nor I would dare to disobey them, and this is your chance.

Now there is no guard at the gate. After going down to the ground, you first go around the outer wall of the building to the right of the gate of the fence. The barbed wire fence over there is relatively short and easy to cross, and you can't see that direction from their room.After you go out, I want you to tie a handkerchief to the birch tree next to the gate of the wall, and let me know that you have escaped safely.Then you don't think about anything, just keep running and don't look back no matter what happens. I'll take care of the rest, you don't have to worry, I'll end it all so you won't suffer from it in the future.I know I have done very bad things to you and your mother, and now I just want you to live like a normal woman.Finally, I hope you can help me show this confession to Ms. Kobayashi Futaba. She bears the same fate as you, and I sincerely hope that she will find happiness. "

The final signature was "Shijia Qingbi" instead of "Father's Pen". I was very sad to see it, but I can understand my father's mood. I can't imagine what my father has planned, and now I can only act according to his instructions. I put the book jacket back on the book, sat on the chair in a daze, my whole body was exhausted.I have always wanted to know the mystery of my life experience, and now I really want to spread it before my eyes, but what if I know the truth? Inadvertently, I looked at the book in front of me and turned a page casually, just in time to see a poem written on a card given to her by Anne's friend Diana.The poem reads thus:

"If you love me as i love you we will be together "until death" For some reason, while reading this poem, the face of a woman appeared in my mind, no, it may not be appropriate to say, because I have never seen her. But I know very well what she looks like. Miss Kobayashi Futaba... Where is she doing now?Did she also know that she is a clone like me?Is she also suffering? I thought of this woman whom I had never met, tears welled up in my eyes again, and the tears flowed down my cheeks, unable to control myself for a long time. I waited until three o'clock in the middle of the night before starting to act.

First of all, I packed my luggage, but because it must be as light as possible, I only brought a small shoulder bag with important items and "Annie the Red Hair" in it. After a moment of hesitation, I decided to stuff the lemon into it. Then I took off the curtains and sheets according to my father's instructions, tore them in half lengthwise, and tied the two ends tightly together to double the length. An unreliable white rope was born. I pulled the bed up to the window, and after making sure it wouldn't move no matter how hard I pulled, I pulled one end of the rope around the foot of the bed to the center of the rope.I opened the window, and the dry, cold air blowing into the room touched my fiery cheeks, feeling very comfortable.

I looked out of the window with my head, and there was a vast sea of ​​darkness outside, with no sound, once I fell into this deep dark world, it seemed that I would keep falling and never reach the bottom. I threw the ends of the rope into the darkness, and the ropes twisted and fell like two white snakes. I firmly grasped the two ropes with both hands and carefully climbed up the window frame. I first sat by the window to adjust my breathing, and then slowly slid my body out.The bed moved slightly, which startled me. When the body is completely suspended, the hands are bearing my weight, and I am desperately holding on to the rope, but my grip cannot support my weight at all, which is a good thing because I am sliding down the rope.My flared skirt flipped open like a parachute, and my shins and elbows hit the concrete wall.

Just when I was about to reach the ground, my foot accidentally kicked the glass window on the first floor. Although the glass was not broken, it made a loud noise, and the next moment I fell to the ground. The light in a room on the second floor was on, and I thought I had to hide quickly, but my ankle hurt so much that I couldn't stand up for a while, and the curtains and glass windows of that room were opened. The woman who was going to be a surrogate appeared in the window. When she saw me, her eyes widened in surprise. I hastily interlocked my fingers in front of my chest, just like I prayed in church every day when I lived in the dormitory.

After she stared down at me for a while, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, as if she said something softly. It looks like "goodbye" from the shape of the mouth, maybe I made a mistake. Then she drew the curtains and turned off the lights. "Thank you..." I whispered to the window. I grabbed one end of the rope and pulled it hard, and the whole rope slid down. Although I really wanted to close the window, there should be no way. I endured the pain in my ankle and moved along the outer wall. I saw an abandoned cardboard box on the way, so I hid the rope in the box.

I followed my father's instructions and came to the gate of the wall. There was really a white birch tree. I took out a handkerchief from my shoulder bag and tied the branches. I wonder if my father can see it? After I crossed the barbed wire fence, I kept walking forward, through the forest, brushing away the weeds, I didn't know where I was, and I didn't know where I would go.There are no street lights and no human habitation. After walking for a long time, I found myself in the middle of an extremely wide prairie, and I couldn’t see any roads when I looked left and right, but I didn’t intend to turn back. My father said that no matter what happens, I can’t turn back.

I sat on the ground and hugged my knees, fear, tension and loneliness made me unable to move forward.I looked up at the night sky, the starlight was like crystal powder sprinkled all over the place, and the dazzling light particles scattered throughout the black sky. Suddenly I had a feeling—in fact, there was someone who had been guarding me.
