-The morning after two days-

The beam of light penetrates the thick clouds and sprinkles like holy light.

The light was only a flash in the pan, moving with the clouds, and once again turned into a gloomy sky without seeing it.

The detective agency without lights was dim.

No one turned on the lights, and neither Lu Li nor Yang Chunxue enjoyed this dim day.

[...Moderate to heavy rain, there will be short-term thunderstorms in some areas: Level 6 to 7 strong winds. Please pay attention to safety in travelers. Next, pay attention to current affairs news--]

The news broadcast came from the old-fashioned camera television, bringing a little excitement to the quiet detective agency.

This scene lasted for a long time and was broken by Lu Li's steady voice.

"Chen Qian didn't come yesterday."

Yang Chunxue, who was watching a movie in the bedroom, took off her headphones and glanced at her: "Isn't it so ashamed that she has no shame to meet people, right?"

Lu Li silently put down half of the textbooks he had read and took out his phone to dial the number.

Just ask.

The phone is connected after a short busy tone.

"Boss, I'm in um...I'm in the hospital." Chen Qian hesitated for a moment and decided to tell the truth.

Lu Li has already reasoned from the noisy background sound and the sound of the radio sound on the other side.

Lu Li asked, "Are you still queuing?"

"I've checked, and the doctor said that I'm cold and weak inside... I should pay attention to rest, don't eat cold food to bask in the sun or something." Chen Qian on the other end of the phone ignored the old Chinese doctor's sentence in the second half, "Young people should pay attention to restraint."

"so?"

"So...that...is...me...actually..."

After a long wait, Chen Qian told the truth: "I want to travel to the island... I will recommend a qualified successor to take over my position! She is super capable!"

"Who?" Lu Li was still calm.

Yang Chunxue paused the movie and drifted to Lu Li to eavesdrop.

"My cousin, she has shown a strong interest in demons and monsters since she was a child. I feel that she is very consistent with the tone of the detective agency and will definitely become your good assistant! But..."

Chen Qianwei paused and said a little hesitantly: "She has such a weird personality..."

"If this is the case, there is no need to recruit people for the time being. I am the only one in the detective agency. When will you go on vacation?"

"But she is super beautiful!"

The shouts in the microphone interrupted Lu Li.

"...When will it arrive?" After a brief silence, Lu Li asked.

A contemptuous look beside me came.

"It should be now-"

Thumb-

The knock on the door sounded at this moment.

"Is it a knock on the door? It should be here, so I'll hang up first~"

beep--

Chen Qian on the other side hurriedly hung up the phone.

Lu Li put down his cell phone, got up and walked towards the door.

Standing in front of the door, he turned his head and asked, "Don't you need to hide?"

"Anyway, ordinary people can't see me." Yang Chunxue looked indifferent.

So Lu Li opened the door directly.

A girl in white dress stood in a dark corridor.

The girl has short hair in her ears, delicate facial features and skin like cream. The only disadvantage is that her expression is numb.

"Is this the interview location?" The girl looked up and looked at Lu Li.

But Lu Li did not feel the focus of his eyes falling on his body. It was a pair of empty eyes.

"yes."

Lu Li turned sideways and let the girl enter the detective agency.

Close the door, Lu Li walked back to the desk and sat down, his eyes falling on the girl sitting opposite him.

"So can you tell me your age first?"

The girl hesitated for a moment and shook her head gently: "...I don't remember."

"Don't remember what it means?"

"I don't remember what happened before..." The girl's dark eyes were filled with confusion.

Maybe this is what Chen Qian refers to?

Lu Li methodically stuffed the bookmark into the textbook: "Do you need help? I can help you recall some things."

The eyes had a little focus and fell on Lu Li, waiting to continue talking.

"Keyword Memories. I provide the keywords. You obtain memory fragments based on the keywords, and then splice the memory fragments together to form a puzzle."

This trick is usually used to deal with people with amnesia or those who want to recall their dreams.

The girl didn't say anything, just nodded.

Lu Li stacked the textbooks and slowly said a series of keywords: "Family, friends, money, school..."

Those eyes rippled in an instant.

Lu Li expanded downward along the school's keywords: "Teacher, students, classmates, friends..."

Every time a word is spoken, it will make the girl's eyes feel turbulent and angry...silent anger.

"Can I tell a story?" The girl looked at Lu Li with empty eyes.

"……Can."

Generally speaking, it is not possible, but Chen Qian said that his cousin is more special.

And she is really beautiful.

"There is a girl...her name is Chen Jingjing."

The girl tells a story in a straightforward way, and tells a story coldly - perhaps the owner is herself.

Chen Jingjing is not from Pingling City. A year ago, she and her parents moved from a neighboring county and settled in Pingling City.

District B is probably the oldest building community in Pingling City - a Soviet-style building established in the 1960s and 1970s.

Because of the low price, her parents quietly bought the house here. Her father worked as a water delivery worker, while her mother worked in a laundry. She was a transfer student at Jiangling High School in her third year.

Generally speaking, senior high school is one of the busiest stages of a person's life. At this time, students do not have too much leisure time, which has become a hidden danger that has been built over time and eventually triggers a nightmare.

Chen Jingjing has been a beauty since childhood. Unlike most girls who have grown up in college, she can now be called exquisite and even beautiful.

No matter how beautiful she is, she is just a skin. As a bone, she has a family with a very positive outlook on her. She has been very good at learning since she was a child.

"The story takes place during ordinary Wednesday break...it's half past eleven."

The girl who told the story suddenly paused when she saw the clock on the door and returned to her previous state of confusion.

"In fact, this watch is almost 7 minutes." Lu Li pressed the screen of his phone and showed it to the girl opposite him: "If you have any urgent matters, please hurry up."

The girl said in a daze with her eyes numb and said, "I promised my parents to go back before 12 o'clock, so can I come for an interview tomorrow?"

"...Of course." Lu Li stood up and sent the girl who didn't say a word out.

Bang.

The door is closed.

"This cousin Chen Qian looks very sick... By the way, is it possible that she is testing you or something?" Yang Chunxue sat on the side of the table.

"A little, but not like."

Lu Li walked back to the desk with thoughts. He didn't think that a person's acting skills were so terrifying that he controlled his pupils.

At this moment, a knock sounded outside the door.

"She may not have anything to say." Yang Chunxue shrugged and followed Lu Li, who had returned, to the door.

The door opened and a girl wearing a mask and round-framed glasses stood in front of the door.

"I am Chen Qian's cousin, come for the interview." A light voice rang out.

“…?”

Lu Li and Yang Chunxue's eyes met and saw the meaning in each other's eyes.

This is Chen Qian’s cousin, that just now...
