[Shen Xia + HP] In the name of a detective

"Orange Juice, long time no see."

Li Chengzhi had already noticed the footsteps behind him. After hearing Aurora's calm voice as before, he finally threw away the dead branch he was holding tightly in his hand, and suddenly turned his head to look at her. His lips moved a few times as if he wanted to say something, but after hesitating for a moment, he still chose to keep silent.He slowly raised his right hand and raised his index finger to his mouth, signaling Aurora not to speak again.

Aurora understood Li Chengzhi's worries at this moment, and didn't say anything else, just quietly leaned against Sherlock's arms, looking at the reflection of herself in the dark in Cheng Juier's eyes, and the corner of her mouth unconsciously twitched slightly. tilted up.

Li Chengzhi seems to have obsessive-compulsive disorder, all the buttons of the dark brown coat are meticulously buttoned, and the hair is combed perfectly. Aurora can even guarantee that he, a big man, spends more time combing his hair every day than himself .He was still the same as before, but he was as energetic as before, but now his complexion was a bit haggard, the bags under his eyes were faintly darkened, and he looked like he hadn't had a good rest for a long time.

It turned out that Aurora was not the only one who was worried about the safety of the other party.

Aurora still remembered thinking that Li Chengzhi had been murdered by someone in an accidental misunderstanding, and she lay on the sofa in the living room and wept in a daze. It was confirmed when it was confirmed to Aubrey.

But after all, there is no basis for empty words. It is just a conjecture without any evidence in his mind and Aubrey's helpless admission, which is not enough to fully believe Aurora, who has changed her career to investigate for a year and pays more and more attention to evidence.

Although Aurora is willing to believe it in her heart, every time she thinks of Li Chengzhi, she always has a moment of doubt and a moment of fear. She is afraid that she is misled by psychological hints and thinks wrong. She was afraid that Aubrey was cajoling her to make her less sad.

The world is so big, where is it impossible to travel, why do you have to come to Luoyang?

In fact, Aurora chose to come to Luoyang this time because of selfish motives, as Sherlock said.And selfishly, I just want to try my luck and see if I can meet Li Chengzhi, who was transferred back to work in China, here.

Luoyang is not only Li Chengzhi's hometown, but also the place he mentioned the most when chatting with Aurora.He always said that it has a long history and was the ancient capital of thirteen dynasties in ancient China, with countless sites and sites.He said that "the water is bright and sunny, and the mountains are empty and rainy." The mountains are beautiful and the water is vast.He said that there are the scenery of Longmen Mountain, the bells of the Ma Temple, and the peaches and plums in the East City, and there are countless beautiful scenery.

Li Chengzhi also said that when he is in a bad mood, he always goes for a walk on a small beach next to Wanshan Lake in Xin'an.This place, like its name, seems to have a magical power.Xin'an Xin'an always makes him feel at ease.

Sitting quietly with his knees hugged on the deserted beach in the early morning or dusk, he can look up at the endless sky and the clouds that are scorched red by the sun.Sometimes he would pick up a branch and scribble on the side like a child, writing his unknown aspirations at the moment, and then wait for the lake to rise up little by little, writing what he just wrote on the beach. His secrets were washed away and buried in the unfathomable bottom of the lake.

Every time after coming here, Li Chengzhi's fidgety heart can calm down.

Aurora was not sure whether the rumors about her sacrifice in the mission earlier had reached his ears, nor did she know if Li Chengzhi would have any troubles recently, but she just had the mentality of giving it a try. Apparated here by accident.It would be good if he was there, and if he wasn't there, he could see the magical place he mentioned with his own eyes and appreciate the beautiful scenery that he has soared to heaven.

It just didn't occur to him that he was really there.

When Aurora saw with her own eyes that Li Chengzhi suddenly turned his head to look at her, her heart that had been in mid-air finally fell.Seeing is believing, this moment proves that her previous guess is correct, that the momentary trance is purely delusional, it proves that the case at that time was really arranged and directed by Aubrey and Li Chengzhi, and it proves that she is the most beautiful woman in her life. My good friend, Orange Juice, is really still alive in this world.

Aurora was stunned for a moment, and blinked her eyes a few times to stop the tears that were about to overflow her eyes. Then she smiled at Li Chengzhi, and held tightly behind Sherlock, who hadn't put it in her coat pocket. that hand.

Li Chengzhi first stared at Aurora for a while, then looked straight past her and landed on Sherlock, smiling gossipingly as always, as if he was proudly saying to his old friend, "Look at me at that time." You’re right.” It seemed to prove something extraordinary.

Due to Mycroft and Sherlock's deliberate dissemination, the news that Aurora had passed away caused a lot of trouble at that time, and even once reached the ears of Li Chengzhi who was far away in China.He is different from others in that he knows Aurora's unknown identity, and he also knows how amazing and powerful magic her brother Aubrey will use, so at the beginning, Li Chengzhi was almost He immediately denied the idea that Aurora had passed away.

Since Aubrey has the ability to help him fake death once, it should be a breeze to successfully treat Aurora and leave the illusion that she is dead.Li Chengzhi believed in Aubrey's level of magic, and believed that Aurora, who always liked to quarrel with him, would not die so easily.

But what if Aurora encounters an unprecedented danger?What if Aubrey is full of magic skills, but it's too late to save his sister?What if Aurora really died forever, as they all said?

From that day on, Li Chengzhi always told himself in his heart to believe in Aubrey's ability, and at the same time kept asking himself "what if something happens".He wanted to contact his mutual friends or people he knew with Aurora, such as Song Jiuhua, Sherlock and Inspector Lestrade.Anyone is fine, as long as they can tell him the real situation of Aurora now.

But Li Chengzhi couldn't, ever since he obeyed the orders of his superiors and directed a suspended animation, he understood that he was setting up a situation where there was no return.Since then, those people or things in London have nothing to do with him.

Besides, the people he wants to ask probably don't know the background of Aurora's family, or even that there is such a magical thing as magic in this world, and maybe they don't know the real situation of Aurora at the moment.However, Aubrey, who must be very clear about this, has long since fulfilled Li Chengzhi's wish, and abandoned the method that was only used to contact him.

He who is far away on the other side of the earth can't do anything.

These days, Li Chengzhi has been very irritable, and even made a serious mistake in an important person, which almost cost his life.Since then, his superiors have strictly ordered him to rest for a period of time to adjust his state, so that he can live a good year.

He hasn't celebrated Chinese New Year for a long time.As the Spring Festival approaches day by day, there are more and more people in the shopping malls and fewer and fewer people on the streets.Li Chengzhi also remembered the old way to mediate his emotions, and came to this place where he could feel at ease again.

Every day, Li Chengzhi would come to this beach in the early hours of the morning, sit in the same position, look up at the morning light that was no different from the previous day, pick up the same dead branch on the spot, and write the same poem on the beach , In the evening, look at the identical Huoshaoyun soaked in the glow, and leave here at the same time in the evening.

day to day.

He didn't expect Aurora to find this place, even though he mentioned this place with beautiful scenery and self-cultivation more than once when chatting with her before.He didn't even think that Aurora would bring Sherlock with him, even though he had gossiped about the two of them more than once when mentioning this tsundere curly-haired detective.

But now it seems that not only is Aurora not life-threatening (even if she had an injury, she has already recovered), but she is also accompanied by a "beautiful woman" (yes, I mean the guy surnamed Holmes), Smiling so sweetly under the reflection of the morning sun.

Li Chengzhi's most concerned question was answered, and the tight string in his heart was loosened. He made a simple gesture that seemed very abstract, indicating that Aurora was standing at that not far or near place. Come again.

If it were someone else, they would definitely not be able to understand this casual gesture, but Aurora and Li Chengzhi have been friends for so many years, and they immediately understood what he meant. It took so much effort just to disappear from her in a logical way.So she very cooperatively maintained the same posture and stood motionless, only looking at him with a pair of bright eyes.

Li Chengzhi glanced thoughtfully at the dead branch he was playing with in his hand, as if he had thought of something, he smoothed out the string of handwriting "Look at the sky at dawn and look at the clouds at dusk" left on the beach with his hands , took up the dead branch and wrote something in the same place, with an extremely serious expression.

Aurora could only vaguely see that it was a very short word, written in just a few strokes.So she also tacitly let go of Sherlock's tight hand, and slowly squatted down on the spot. I don't know how many times she removed Sherlock's wand fixed on her hair, and put on a posture of holding a brush. Two words, equally terse, were left on the sand with the tip of the wand.

"Alive."
