[Comprehensive] Miss Xizhi

Even though it was early spring, the weather still hadn't warmed up, and the temperature dropped a few degrees at night, making it a bit like winter.Wang Xizhi wore that ugly knitted hat and straightened his scarf, wrapping himself completely in warmth.

Lin Haiyin's home is not too far from here, it takes 10 minutes by tram.Even if you choose to walk, you can get there in less than an hour.

Wang Xizhi sent Lin Haiyin to the station all the way.Originally, he wanted to accompany her to take the subway together, and after delivering it to her door, she turned back to the apartment.But when she was almost at the station, she realized that she had no money with her, so she had to let it go.

"I'm already very happy to be able to drive me to the station!" Lin Haiyin said with a smile, "Why are you so embarrassed to ask you to drive me to the door again?"

Wang Xizhi twitched the corners of his mouth, not knowing what to say.Along the way afterwards, she was also extremely silent, and only when Lin Haiyin talked about certain topics, would she answer a few words sullenly.

Even a guy who can't read air anymore can feel that Wang Xizhi's condition is not good at this moment.

Lin Haiyin worked hard to maintain the dialogue between each other until the end of the journey.

"Then, I'm going back." Lin Haiyin waved to her, and said goodbye to her with a smile, "I'll come to see you when I'm free!"

"Yeah." At this moment, Wang Xizhi seemed to be in a better mood, "Be careful on the road."

"I see. Bye!"

Lin Haiyin's figure merged into the crowd, and at first she could barely find where she was, but soon disappeared.Wang Xizhi stood there in a daze for a while, until the sound of the train passing by woke her up suddenly.

Trams full of passengers move briskly along the railway tracks.From where she stood, it was difficult to see the passengers in the carriage, only the soft light yellow light could be seen coming from the window.Little by little, the warm light also disappeared from the range of eyes.

Wang Xizhi tightened his scarf.It's still early, and she doesn't want to go back that much.She decided to walk around.

She also remembers saying that this is a great city, but unfortunately she has never had the opportunity to experience this wonderful city.It just so happens that I have already gone out today, so let's take a stroll around.

After all, whether there will be such an opportunity in the future is completely uncertain...

After all, she still has to leave Yokohama, this is the absolute answer.Regardless of whether the final outcome is good or bad, whether they win or lose, in the end, she should still leave Yokohama.

"call……"

Thinking of this incident always made her feel a little sad.But probably it was just sad, there was no other emotion going on—just, just sad.

In fact, sadness is also a particularly heavy emotion, she knows it.

Taking heavier steps than ever before, she crossed the bridge, and the wind blowing from the river didn't bring a little chill, and the touch of her face was very pleasant.It just so happened that she was a little tired from walking, so she stopped here.Leaning on the railing, she watched the river flow slowly, refracting the light of the street lamps into a soft light.

There are residential areas on both sides of the river, and there are two sightseeing trails for pedestrians to take a walk on the bank. However, it seems that there are not many people at the moment, only a few scattered people.

But Wang Xizhi noticed a familiar figure and couldn't help but let her stare at it for a longer time.

At first, she didn't see the man clearly, but because the man happened to be sitting under the street lamp, shrouded in bright yellow light, and looked extraordinarily eye-catching, she cast a second glance.

And at this second glance, she found that the man was wearing a dark green suit and a tall hat of the same color, which was extremely weird.

Wang Xizhi, whose mind was full of cuckolds, suddenly felt that he seemed somewhat familiar.

Make an effort to search the memory -- to the not-too-distant past.

She found the name of the person corresponding to this strange figure——

— Arthur Conan Doyle.

The moment the name popped up, Wang Xizhi was taken aback.She didn't expect Arthur to be in Yokohama too.

Her memory was still stuck in the meeting with Arthur in Tokyo—actually the time when he got stuck in a tree.

That was the time, when chatting in the coffee shop, it seemed that she did mention that she was living in Yokohama now, and Arthur did seem to mention that he wanted to visit Yokohama.

...I didn't expect him to come here?

Wang Xizhi felt a little magical, and a little unbelievable.She hurriedly ran down the passage by the bridge, and walked quickly on the viewing path, still feeling a little magical in her heart.

She walked so fast that she was out of breath.After finally walking under the street lamp, the person disappeared.Fortunately, he didn't go far away, she trotted to catch up.

"Oh, it's you, Miss! Good evening!" Arthur greeted her familiarly.

Supporting his knees, Wang Xizhi gasped for several breaths before he managed to recover.

"Good evening..." she said. "It was a surprise to see you in Yokohama."

"Haha, is that right? I also just arrived in Yokohama yesterday. Oh, it's such a nice place." He nodded in satisfaction as he spoke, "And, I came all the way here on a paraglider!"

He smiled proudly, as if he was saying "come and praise me".

However, Wang Xizhi didn't think of the praise link, but felt a little curious, so he asked him: "From Tokyo to Yokohama by glider? How did you do it?"

Arthur was even more proud.He tugged on his bow tie, and after a moment of shaming, he said, "Pick a tall building and glide from the top. Repeat this action until you reach Yokohama!"

Wang Xizhi felt extremely confused.Thinking about this magical journey, she especially wanted to give Arthur a thumbs up.

"...You are really good."

Arthur smiled even more happily: "Thank you for the compliment!"

"Why do I feel like I'm not praising you?" Wang Xizhi was even more confused.

Fortunately, the confusion is only temporary, and she will soon be able to accept this setting.

In fact, she came here specially because she wanted to talk to Arthur about something—it was just a whim on her mind, and she herself didn't know if it could be formed.

"Mr. Arthur, I remember that your supernatural power is the ability to reappear dead people in the form of phantoms." She looked at Arthur and asked him, "Is that so, right?"

"That's right." Arthur nodded politely, "Its name is 'Empty House', specifically..."

Wang Xizhi didn't have much time to listen to his detailed explanation, so he interrupted him boldly and continued to ask the second question: "Are you going to stay in Yokohama for the rest of your time?"

Arthur was not angry at her impatience. He nodded and said, "Yes. I rented a small apartment in Yokohama, and I plan to live in it for a few months to get a good feel for the atmosphere here."

Wang Xizhi's high-hanging heart was instantly settled.She breathed a sigh of relief, finally able to show a smile from the bottom of her heart.

"That's fine...that's fine..."

"What can you do?" Arthur asked her.

"Yes. I really want to ask you for something." She suppressed her smile, her gaze firm. "This matter, only you can do it... Would you like to listen to me?"

"Please."

The river kept going towards nowhere, and the sound of splashing water on the bank was low and weak, like the sound of fish jumping out of the water.Under the street lamps there were two heavy faces.

There are fewer and fewer people walking on the scenic trails.It seemed that it was getting late, and the busy city began to sink into the silence of the night.

"That's it." Wang Xizhi paused, and then said, "Maybe you will face incomparable danger, but please believe me, I will definitely risk my life to protect you. You also know that this matter has nothing to do with you , so you said, you don't want to accept it, it doesn't matter - but I still want to ask you, are you willing to help me?"

There was silence for a moment.Then, he nodded firmly.

"It's funny, isn't it?" Arthur smiled lightly like a teenager, "so I'd like to help you."

I don't know why, but at this moment, Wang Xizhi wanted to cry in disappointment.

"Thank you... then, I'll leave it to you."

A deal with Arthur, not just for herself—it was for everyone.

The author has something to say: I really want Xiaohonghua so much, so I have one more chapter to fill up the word count~

I feel like I'm about to write the final chapter.
