One early morning in mid-April, the weather that was supposed to be warm suddenly started snowing.
When it just started snowing, Gu Xing was lying in bed. He slept until he woke up naturally and planned to go to the bookstore downstairs to read for a while. In the past few days, he had dealt with another case of Smiling Angel. The other party's rules were so weird that he was frightened to think about them, which made him exhausted both physically and mentally.
It was Satomi's joyful "Wow, it's snowing!" from next door that called him back from his subconscious thoughts about the case.
He walked to the window. The ground was still dry, but large flakes of snow had fallen from the sky, as if they couldn't wait to fall into the earth.
Suddenly, an inexplicable touch and excitement surged in his heart, as if the moment he saw the fragrance, time and space went back, and he returned to those childhood days when only fragments of memory remained.
So, he walked downstairs quickly, thinking that he would take a walk in the snow for a while, breathe the fresh air, just think about nothing, and feel the ultimate tranquility of life for a moment.
When he walked out from the first floor, Satomi stuck her head out of the window and asked, "Hey, where do you want? Isn't the case closed?"
Gu Xing turned around and raised his head to look at Rimi upstairs, "I'll go for a walk and I'll be back later."
"But..." Satomi looked at the sky, "It seems like the snow is getting heavier and heavier."
"That's what makes it interesting."
After saying this, Gu Xing waved to Satomi, nodded to Chiyo who was looking at him from the window of the bookstore on the first floor, turned around and walked into the falling snow.
Naturally, because of the snow, there were very few pedestrians on the street.
When the snowflakes first fell on the ground, the ground temperature was still okay. The snowflakes quickly melted into water and seeped into the stone bricks on the street and the soil of the lawn. After a while, a thin layer of snow accumulated on the ground.
Gu Xing stepped on such a thin layer of snow, and it seemed as if he could delicately feel the process of each snowflake pressing from various hexagonal shapes to the ground and turning into a puddle with the soles of his feet. This feeling was quite refreshing and healing, and he was almost intoxicated. Among them, forget about when it is now, where you are here, who you are, and what you want to do.
It was on such a wonderful snowy day, in a quiet alley with falling snow, that he saw a familiar figure walking not far away.
She was a rare and beautiful woman. She was wearing a white coat that still showed off her excellent figure. Her skin was as white as porcelain. Her eyes were like a pool of well water in autumn. Snowflakes fell on her long hair, dotted with stars. Made an excellent pendant.
"Gu Xingjun," Karasawa Makoto greeted him cordially, "Long time no see."
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Gu Xing was in a daze, thinking that it was a coincidence that he could meet a national actress just by taking a walk, but he didn't say this out loud.
Immediately, he understood - it was not a coincidence at all. On such a romantic and touching morning, the carefully dressed Karasawa Makoto appeared here. There was no doubt that it was her premeditated arrangement.
He stared at Karasawa Makoto, his mind racing, guessing what kind of tricks this patient hunter would use.
You must know that for this meeting alone, she has been preparing for this for a year and a half——
In the first year, she seemed to have built a wall, completely cutting off contact with Gu Xing.
In the following six months, she took the initiative to find Satomi, captured her with sugar-coated bullets, and kept sending messages to his ears, making him familiar with every aspect of her, as if a long and intimate live broadcast.
Now, she had few secrets from him, and no secrets at all.
In a sense, she succeeded, she aroused his curiosity bit by bit.
In a sense, she also failed. She made him defensive little by little. Now, there is an invisible, transparent, and solid wall in front of the two people. He is on the other end of the wall, observing Tang Ze's performance, but Tang Ze still thinks that he is completely unaware of it.
But now, when it was finally time for the two sides to face each other head-on, Gu Xing couldn't help but imagine how Tang Ze would act. Judging from her calm patience, this "accidental encounter" would probably only be a face-to-face encounter, a simple greeting, polite greetings, a reason for passing by by chance, and then parting ways, leaving Gu Xing with lingering reluctance... …Then, look forward to the next chance encounter.
She must have made a detailed battle plan long ago and listed clear attack principles - nothing more than the old tricks of staying away from each other, sometimes far and sometimes close. He had already thought of a way to deal with it - he had to be more patient than she was.
"Gu Xingjun,"
Karasawa Makoto stared into his eyes, "Can you walk with me for a while?"
Gu Xing was surprised, "Huh?"
Karasawa Makoto said: "I want to chat with you for a while."
"oh,"
Gu Xing nodded, "Of course."
The two people walked away side by side. Logically speaking, a big star like her would be crowded with people wherever she goes, but fortunately, the location here is relatively remote, and there are few people going out on snowy days, so it is rare to have a moment of freedom.
"Gu Xingjun." Karasawa Makoto lowered his head.
"Um."
"Don't you want to know why I'm in this neighborhood?"
"I'm here to see Satomi."
"I want to see you,"
Karasawa Makoto still lowered his head, but his voice reached Gu Xing's ears clearly and firmly, "That's why I'm here."
