"It's over for the time being. It's not the right time for this rain. It would be better if it could last longer."

A soft exhalation sounded like a sigh. Sawamura Sayuri looked at the rain-soaked lanterns one after another, and seemed to sigh a little. She seemed to have other plans, and ignored the gradually extinguishing lights. , Accompanied by the long drizzle, she walked towards Li Yan, raised her head slightly to look at him, and asked, "Why did you come here, it's so late, and you haven't slept yet?"

Li Yan's eyes became complicated, with the worst intentions in his eyes, his eyes gradually became vigilant, he looked directly at Sayuri, and asked, "Although the question is a bit abrupt, but now, I can no longer keep silent. Miss Sawamura, What is your relationship with Sawamura Spencer Eiri? Why did you appear in the Holy Land of Cursed at such a late hour, and why... what kind of ceremony was being held?"

"..."

Sawamura Sayuri looked at his cold eyes and hesitated for a while. Li Yan, who seemed to have never seen such an expression before, was shocked, but a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

She passed Li Yan's side directly, and whispered casually beside him, "I'm sorry, these... are all secrets and have nothing to say."

"...is it a secret again?"

Li Yan's cheeks were wet from the rain, his face was a little disappointed, he looked back at Sayuri Sawamura, his eyes had to be suspicious, and he had already expected that Sayuri Sawamura would not reveal anything to him.

Sawamura Sayuri has always given him a very good impression, perhaps it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a friendship, but it does not mean that a very high favorability will make him naive enough to believe in an unfamiliar person, although I am not sure whether the incident of the daughter of the ugly time is directly related to Sayuri Sawamura, but if it is not related, it should be unlikely.

"I'll probably tell you later, but not now. Uesugi, this time things are out of your control..."

Sawamura Sayuri stretched out her hand, felt the wet drizzle, her black hair was soaked with rain, and said with a smile, "It's very late now, and if you don't go out from this deep mountain earlier, it's like this loose soil. In the mountains and forests, it might be very dangerous to rush down the mountain... Uesugi, give me your hand, and I will take you down the mountain."

"?" Li Yan was slightly taken aback.

However, that small and soft hand had already clenched his palm tightly without hesitation. In the drizzle of the sky and in the wet woods, the girl held his hand like this and started step by step. Going down the mountain road, the pace is a little fast, and it seems that there is some eagerness to leave this mountain.

The long black hair wet by the rain kept swaying, and the pretty cheeks began to drip with cold rain. She never turned her head, did not let go of Li Yan's hand, and walked forward in the rustling ear woods When it was pitch black in front of you, you had to take every step carefully.

As if the whole world was silent, only the two of them existed, wandering alone in the darkness, the two of them didn't communicate a few words, and quickly left this dark and cold place on the dark road.

"..."

Soon, it only took about ten minutes, and the bright lights of the small town could be seen in front of him. Li Yan looked at the small town not far away in surprise. , It seems that Sawamura Sayuri is already quite familiar with this place.

At this moment, both of them were soaked all over, and Sawamura Sayuri's pace began to slow down. She held Li Yan's hand and walked, and gradually, in the light of the town at the foot of the road, she let go. Li Yan's hand.

"I'm back, Uesugi."

With her back to him, Sayuri Sawamura said softly.

This release made Li Yan feel that suddenly, he was getting further and further away from the mysterious and unpredictable Sayuri, and his eyes became more and more disturbed and troubled.

So, Sayuri Sawamura...what did she do in that cursed place?

The sound of rustling rain beat his mood.

"...So, why are you so familiar with the terrain of that mountain, Miss Sawamura?"

Li Yan was silent for a while, and finally, in the midst of the vast water affairs, he still asked his uneasy doubts.

"I said it, this is a secret, Uesugi-sensei, aren't you a top student at the University of Tokyo? You should answer this question by yourself... I just advise you, don't be too curious, this time you can't intervene. Otherwise, you still have to be careful about your own personal safety."

When the voice of Sayuri Sawamura, who had her back to Li Yan, spoke about the back, she became slightly indifferent, and said with a hint of warning.

"..." Li Yan looked at her silently.

"This is my advice, no matter what, don't interfere in my family affairs, please."

Immersed in the darkness, she revealed a smile and whispered.

At this moment, the sky in the distance flashed with rays of lightning, reflecting the figures of the two people facing each other in the rain. At this time, a Bentley car started to drive out from the parking lot in the distance, gradually getting closer and closer. , the headlights shone on both of them.

Li Yan saw Sawamura Sayuri's assistants coming, thought for a moment, and said, "Thank you for taking me out today... Yingri is in the apartment, do you want to see her?"

"No need. After all, if we meet here, I'm afraid it will make her think like the last time. If she's talking, I'd better ask you, my sincere friends, to trouble you."

Sawamura Sayuri shook her head gently, smiled faintly, and replied with her head lowered.

"Miss, are you alright?!"

The female assistant got out of the car immediately and said to Sayuri Sawamura.

"...Miss Sawamura, I thought we were friends. Although we didn't have much contact, you helped me a lot, but sometimes being mysterious is not an act of kindness to friends. The terrifying curse incident at Yamagami Shrine may involve Eri Li, she is my most important and important friend, I will not sit idly by, no matter who my opponent is, I will never forgive her..."

Li Yan said to Sawamura Sayuri in a low voice and cold.

Sawamura Sayuri was silent, and on the cheeks beaten by the rain, the small black pupils under the bangs gradually shifted along the trail of his walking, but stopped talking.

Saying that, Li Yan didn't show any emotion, closed his eyes and brushed shoulders with Sawamura Sayuri, just nodded to the female assistant who came over, and walked towards the town with a sad mood.

Sawamura Sayuri turned her head to look at the back of Li Yan leaving, she silently and sadly raised her head again to look at the rain that fell from the sky like a misty sky, she always felt that she could find the answer in her heart by looking at it this way.

"Miss, don't freeze."

An umbrella was propped on top of her head, the female assistant reminded in a low voice.

"...Well, I'm fine, let's go back today." Sayuri Sawamura lowered her head, and finally raised her head and said with a smile.

Sitting in the back seat, drying her cheeks a little, and putting a towel over her hair, Sayuri Sawamura was still wet and dripping with water droplets. From the inner pocket of his sleeve, he took out a small hammer, nails, and... a cursed scarecrow with the full name of a certain man written on it.

It seems that, in my mind, I thought of an ancient Chinese poem: The mountains and the rain are about to come and the wind is full of buildings...

"I... really have nothing."

She looked at the scarecrow with iron nails for a long time, closed her eyes, lowered her head and muttered to herself quietly.

……

Three days later, in an apartment building in Shinjuku, Tokyo, Room 505 is still brightly lit.
