On the way to Hanshiju Island, the plane descended slightly beside a rock in the sea. And to their surprise—
A mermaid was sitting on the rock, pointing with her bright fins toward the pilot of the plane, as if telling him to descend further.
When the pilot, Shenmu, saw her, he exclaimed: "This is unbelievable! A mermaid has appeared before us on top of the rock. She's signaling us to go down!"
The girl, Kasha, shouted: "My sister has appeared! Look at her face—it's her! Please, Shenmu, descend and listen to what she says. Perhaps she needs help to escape the prison of the sea."
The helicopter pilot gasped: "Oh, I'm shocked! What am I hearing? Are you truly witnessing this, or are you setting a trap for me? Why can't I see her?"
Pilot Shenmu replied: "We are living our imagination in another time, while you remain in yours."
The commander frowned: "I don't understand."
Pilot Shenmu explained: "Her sister is suspended in the clouds. She lives in a time far from ours—perhaps transformed into a mermaid."
The commander warned: "Pilot, do not approach her. It may be a plot by the enemies."
But Pilot Shenmu said firmly: "We are in a time of peace. We have lost voices that have been hidden since the Second World War."
The leader muttered angrily: "Damn that novelist who fed your imagination!"
