Yu Sheng leaned up close to the mirror, looking more carefully at the "second reflection" that was faintly discernible in the mirror. The layered image inside the mirror felt to him like the nighttime reflection of a window, where the outside scenery merges with the shadows on the window glass, creating an impression that the somber cave and the snowflakes swirling at its entrance were really existing in some place opposite the mirror, albeit indistinct and full of overlapping shadows.
Erin quickly climbed up Yu Sheng's body and perched on his shoulder, embracing his head as she curiously looked at the mirror on the wall. After a while, she muttered, "Could it be that the snow is 'blowing' over from the other side of the mirror?"
"You can see it too?" Yu Sheng glanced at Erin in surprise.
"Of course, what's so surprising about that?" Erin felt somewhat baffled. "It's not like I'm blind."
