289 Chapter 285. Encounter
At night, the sun's light disappears under the western horizon, leaving only the thin moonlight and starlight.A cloudless night with a sparse moon and stars is okay, but if there are dark clouds, it is common to be invisible in the wilderness.

Since ancient times, since the history of human beings, the night has not been the home of human beings.

Human eyes have extremely powerful color discrimination ability, which is also among the top in the animal kingdom.However, this needs to be reflected in the daytime. Once it enters the night, human vision will be greatly reduced. Snakes with heat-sensing ability, nocturnal cats with strong pupil adjustment ability, especially big cats such as tigers, They can easily tear apart a single human being.

The danger of night has penetrated into the genes, so that fear of the dark has almost become one of human nature.

Only a few hundred years ago, human beings still followed the traditional living habit of working at sunrise and resting at sunset.

Until the last hundred years, with the invention of new lighting tools - electric lights, especially the rise of new living places - cities, human beings finally began to go deep into the night world.

The capital of the Celestial Dynasty——Kyoto, as an international metropolis with tens of millions of people, is still as bright as day at night.Many young men and women are still walking in the streets and alleys at night, talking and laughing loudly.This is already a common sight in a country with good law and order.

On the streets of Kyoto, a beautiful figure dragging a suitcase was hurriedly walking on the sidewalk.

The girl wears short hair that reaches the ears, has a pair of big eyes that are already lively, and is dressed in a fresh and clean student attire. The snow-white sneakers are stained with a small amount of gray stains. At first glance, it can be seen that they have just been soiled not long ago. It may still be brand new when you leave the house.

The mobile phone in the daughter's hand turned on the navigation, and she looked down at the map on the mobile phone from time to time during the walk.

"On the east side of Qianhai, Di'anmen...should be nearby. What's going on, brother? He's not at school. I searched around but couldn't find anyone. If I hadn't asked someone, I wouldn't have known about it. This guy has already dropped out of school. What are you doing! You were the one who said he wanted to learn acting, and you were the one who dropped out without saying a word. Can't you just say something after dropping out?"

The girl kicked on the railing on the side of the road, but instead of achieving the effect of discouragement, she jumped in pain.

"What, this railing is actually solid instead of a pipe? Even if you don't do bean curd projects, the construction team, you don't need to work hard on this kind of place! Oh, it hurts..."

The girl found a roadside bus stop and sat down on the bench waiting for the bus.Rubbing his sore ankle with his hands, he did not forget to mutter to himself viciously:

"Brother smelly, wait until you come back to see if I don't kick you to death! Let you not contact me! Let you drop out of school secretly! Let you go to Shanghai!"

A yellow and green taxi stopped in front of the bus stop. The driver in the car honked the horn, rolled down the window, and yelled in a loud Beijing voice:
"Hey! Miss, wait for the bus? It's too late and the bus won't run! Can you go with my taxi?"

The girl who was cursing someone viciously just now raised her head and put on a bright smile:

"Thank you uncle, no need, my house is on the street on the right, just take a rest after walking far away!"

"Is that so? That's fine, let's go back early at night! I heard that the neighborhood is haunted recently!"

Before he could finish speaking, the taxi driver kicked the accelerator and drove away.

The girl stood up feebly:

"Oh, the uncle driver is right, let's go!"

The girl dragged her suitcase and walked into the pedestrian street. With sharp eyes, she quickly saw a quaint wooden signboard. Under the signboard was a suspected coffee shop with a closed door and a "Closed Business" signboard inside the glass window. A picture displayed on the girl's phone was exactly the same.

After confirming that it was correct, the girl sighed:

"That's it, it's almost here!"

Click on the phone screen, open the phone's address book, and dial a new number that hasn't been added yet.

"Brother said that there is a friend who stayed to watch the door in Beijing, so he hasn't arrived yet?"

The outgoing call was connected after a beep, and the girl said to the other end of the phone:
"Hello? Are you Li Xiang's friend? I'm his sister. My brother should have told you...Hello? Hello?"

Although the phone was connected, no one spoke.

The girl took the phone off her ear and brought it to her eyes.

"I got through. What's going on? Hello? Hello, is there anyone?"

A cold hand patted the girl's shoulder.

"Wow! What?!"

The girl who turned hastily saw a beautiful young woman with a collar around her neck.

The woman was holding a mobile phone in her hand, and the three-character note displayed on it looked very familiar to the girl. That was exactly her name——

Li Sisi

………………

In a small store, Shen Yunshu locked the door again.Li Sisi put away the trolley of the suitcase, found a sofa and sat down.

"So, you are the friend my brother said stayed to see the store?"

Shen Yunshu nodded, but Li Sisi, who was facing the inside of the store, happened not to see what she was doing when she was locking the door outside the store.

Li Sisi didn't respond to her own question for a long time. Li Sisi turned her head and looked at Shen Yunshu suspiciously.

After locking the store door, Shen Yunshu turned around, looked at Li Sisi's confused eyes, blinked, and also showed a confused expression.

Li Sisi felt that he might have met a strange person.

She began to wonder if something had happened to her brother.

However, when I thought about it, I saw that the young woman in front of me was holding the key to the store at the address mentioned by her brother, and she also knew her name. She must be this person.

After hesitating for a while, she asked carefully:
"Uh... that... let me introduce myself, I am Li Xiang's younger sister, and my name is Li Sisi. You are..."

The woman's eyes lit up, she took out her mobile phone, opened a mobile application with a white background, and began to write and draw.

After a while, the young woman raised her mobile phone and turned on the screen to Li Sisi:
"Hi sister, my name is Shen Yunshu, the clerk of this store. Li Xiang called and asked me to open the door for you. I was outside when I received your brother's call. I just arrived. I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

?

? ?
???

Why use a mobile phone?
Li Sisi was at a loss.

Here Li Sisi was still dizzy, Shen Yunshu, who had been unable to speak for more than ten years, had already understood, she clapped her hands and made a clear high-five.

Li Sisi was startled by the sudden high-five in the quiet store, driven by human instinct, she subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound——Shen Yunshu's hands.

Shen Yunshu pointed to his mouth, then waved at Li Sisi.

With such a simple and clear gesture, Li Sisi quickly understood it.Then she took out her mobile phone under Shen Yunshu's puzzled gaze, and skillfully dialed a number:
With a busy tone of "di--", the call was connected:
On the other end of the phone, before a young male voice could say the first half of the word "Hello", it was covered by a loud shout:

"Brother, your friend is dumb, you should have said it earlier!!!"
