At four o'clock in the afternoon, the weather was cold, and Li Yan stood at the door of Zecun's house and waited quietly.

Although it was a light snow, the flying snow from the sky fell on the roof of the supra and accumulated a layer of snow. Li Yan, who was afraid of the cold, unknowingly covered his hair and shoulders with a layer of snow.

As a result, Ying Lili still did not come back, the phone was still offline, and the line text message did not reply.After waiting for a while, I received congratulatory text messages from Qianshou Village Zheng, Izumi Masamune, Xia Shizi and others.

"...Where did Yingri go?"

Under the increasingly dim sky, the street lights were on, Li Yan was leaning against the fence, looking at the magazine in his hand, the pseudonym of Uesugi Yan and Kashiwa Mu Yingli was registered on the author and illustrator column, and he always felt that it would be difficult to wait for today. The way his partner came back.

Occasionally, Li Yan would appear extremely persistent and emotional.

A year ago, his slightly immature personality at that time was regarded as a paranoid existence by Kagurazaka Iris and Kasumigaoka Shiyu...

Li Yan stood for a while, and the cars and wealthy people around him were naturally wary of this stranger driving a modified car, and they all looked sideways.

At first, Li Yan just kept his perspective away and was not conspicuous, but gradually, the vigilance around him became more and more, and finally Li Yan returned to the car and continued to wait.

As a result, at 5:25, the Supra parked for too long, and was eventually reported by nearby residents, which attracted the security guards in the block. In the end, Li Yan could only return without success.

Until the end, Li Yan's dream of sharing joy with his partner also came to nothing.

※※※

10:10pm at night.

Apartment building in Shinjuku, Tokyo.

【Dong dong dong! 】

Li Yan, who was writing the draft of Volume 11 on his desk, suddenly rang his cell phone.

The number of the incoming call is the landline number.

Li Yan answered and asked, "Who is it?"

- [It's me, otaku Li. 】

"Eri Pear?"

Li Yan's hand that moved the mouse quickly stopped and asked in surprise.

"Have you gone home yet?"

——[Go home, what are you talking about, my house should be empty today, my family is on a business trip, my words, now I come to Aomori Prefecture with friends from the art club to look for beautiful scenery and sketch, and practice sketching by the way, today I have been They all stayed in the car until I just moved into my classmate's private villa and took a hot shower... Sorry, there was no signal on the way, I didn't see your text messages and calls until not long ago. 】

Li Yan was stunned, Ying Li Li actually went on a trip.

He quickly remembered that on New Year's Eve, he seemed to hear her casually mention the past sketching, but he did not expect to go to the northeast area.

A vague sense of unease lingered in Li Yan's heart.

After all, Lianhua once reminded him on the subway, and he did not take it lightly. He also called Yingli to remind her, hoping that she would not be in some remote and weird places, and pay attention to that female friend who drew a book.

Lianhua was extremely taboo about that place name at that time, but it seemed that many secrets of hell could not be told, so he avoided talking about it.

"Are you over there in Aomori, why did you go so far?" Li Yan's expression changed slightly as he asked.

——【It’s a bit far, but the scenery here in Aomori is indeed quite good. 】

"...That, Eiri... that girl you helped sell doujinshi with, is that girl by your side?"

Li Yan was in a complicated mood and asked.

After soaking her body, wearing a bathing suit and a scarf, Ying Ri heard this, looked at the freckled high school girl not far away, stood in front of the landline of the villa, smiled, and said, "What did you ask? It's Katori, she's also there, the planning and cost of this trip is her responsibility, she's the daughter of the gaming boss."

Li Yan's body, for some reason, was half cold.

Under normal circumstances, such a friend's daily travel is not a big deal, but Lianhua's reminder, especially the pair of emerald green pupils, did see something, and this hint made him lingering in fear.

Although he did remind Eiri, he could not give a specific and credible reason. How could he convince Eiri to keep a distance from the girl named Katori who had a deep friendship and declared that she should not go to suspicious and dangerous places. The initiative was decided, and she was taken to a dangerous place without her knowledge, and Eri didn't even know about it.

Li Yan has always been at a disadvantage in intelligence.

"Ying Lili, where is your address, tell me now." Li Yan asked for the name of the place to be conservative.

--【Um?Why do you suddenly ask this? 】

Eiri blinked her eyes and asked curiously.

"...Maybe I know that place and want to know more about it." Li Yan quickly found an excuse to fulfill his too obvious purpose.

——[I just know that this area is located in a forest in Aomori Prefecture. I accidentally saw the place name that said "Sunrise" on the rusty sign on the road. I don't know the situation here. There is a village around it. , but most of the residents were evacuated. 】

"..."

Listening to Ying Lili's description of the situation, Li Yan vaguely sensed something was wrong.

- [Hey, otaku Li, I always think you seem strange, is there anything you plan to tell me? 】

Yingli Li was silent for a long time, and suddenly, she was keenly aware that Li Yan had something on her mind, and immediately asked.

Li Yan couldn't care about too many suspicious situations, and reminded: "Listen to me, Yingri, you must pay attention to that classmate named Katori, and, no matter what happens, don't go anywhere with her, you know? ?"

However, at Li Yan's prompt, there was silence on the other side of the phone.

——【Why do you say that, otaku Li, do you know anything? I felt a little strange about the things you reminded me before. Hey, what are you hiding from me? 】

Ying Lili's expression became serious, she held the phone in both hands, and asked in a low voice.
