"Alive."

These two simple words are Aurora's greatest blessing to Li Chengzhi.

I still remember that when I reunited with Li Chengzhi, whom I hadn’t seen for a long time, in the beer foam case, Aurora specifically asked Lestrade to go to the Scotland Yard police station to take a statement the next day, and hurriedly dragged him out for dinner. up.At that time, Li Chengzhi said that he had already made a will. If he died, all property including the company would belong to Aurora.

Aurora remembers clearly that her answer at the time was "I don't want it, you should keep the money for retirement."Li Chengzhi is only in his 20s, how can he talk about "retirement"?Although this sentence may sound like disrespect to him at first glance, it is Aurora's most sincere hope.

Later, there was something like suspended animation. At first, Aurora mistakenly thought that Li Chengzhi was really murdered, and she thought of the words she said to him more than once.She really hoped that Li Chengzhi would have the opportunity to take the newly obtained money to retire safely, but it seemed impossible at that time.

As for the money contained in the will, she didn't touch any of it, and according to the repayment amount that Li Chengzhi always liked to mention before, she transferred another 360 yuan and [-] cents to his account.Not one point more, not one point less.

But now, Aurora wanted to say to Li Chengzhi full of words, but thousands of words were merged into two words: "Alive."

Just knowing you're alive is enough for me.

Wait a minute, since Li Chengzhi didn't die, shouldn't the property in the will be returned to him?

Aurora raised her head slowly, and there was an emotion in Sherlock's eyes that she didn't understand. She stood up and held his hand again, and walked towards Li Chengzhi step by step.At the same time, Li Chengzhi also threw away the dead branch, stood up on the spot, patted the sand sticking to his clothes, and strode over here.

After passing by briefly, Aurora and Li Chengzhi came to each other's original positions, looked at the small piece of writing, and found that it was the same two words as themselves.

Next to where Li Chengzhi was originally sitting, there were two words written impressively: "Alive."

Aurora turned her head to look at Li Chengzhi who was looking at him at the same time, and smiled at him. There was a bit of bitterness in the smile, but it was more indifferent.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Before Sherlock asked her again whether she wanted to meet Li Chengzhi when she came to Luoyang this time, Aurora waved her magic wand and quickly apparated away from Luoyang, and came to the place where Chinese and Western cultures blend—— Hongkong.

"What? Are you guilty?" Sherlock, who has always been impatient, glanced at the wand in Aurora's hand, took it again, took out a tissue from her coat pocket, and wiped the tip of the wand that was still clinging to fine sand. , while tirelessly wondering how many times you put your hair up in a bun, while mocking mercilessly, "I only knew that you don't know how to comb your hair very much, but I didn't expect you to have the habit of unraveling your hair."

"I don't have anything to be guilty of. Li Chengzhi is my best friend. It's reasonable for me to visit his hometown." Aurora imitated Sherlock's way of addressing Li Chengzhi. Sophistry pursed his lips and smiled, and after he finally fixed his hair, he turned his head and put his arms around his neck, and said sweet words with a smooth tongue, "Every time I untangle my hair, you can help me comb it again." Once, of course I like it."

Sherlock knew that Aurora was afraid that he would get angry because of this incident, and was trying to curry favor with him, but the corners of her mouth curled up little by little, but she still put on a posture of incriminating, and said in a bad tone: "When you saw that so-called Li Chengzhi just now, there was no surprise on his face."

"You already knew he wasn't dead." Sherlock said his usual affirmative sentence in a firm tone as always.

"You have also dealt with his case before, and you were not surprised when you saw Li Chengzhi." Aurora insisted, "You will never die until you hit the Yellow River, don't look back until you hit the south wall, and don't see the coffin." "No tears" principle, denying Sherlock's statement that he knew that Li Chengzhi was not dead, with both hands still grasping the nice curly hair on the back of his head.

"You don't need to use your brain to know that, just like you were then, his case is related to magic, so it must have something to do with you." Sherlock allowed Aurora to rub the curly hair on his head, Her hands slipped silently into the pockets of her coat on both sides, and continued to "warm her hands".

In fact, Aurora didn't intend to hide this from Sherlock from the beginning, but she didn't want to admit it so quickly, and seeing that she couldn't make it up now, she had to say: "Actually, I didn't know when the accident happened. He didn't really die, but he had some doubts about how he could be murdered so easily by the general manager of a bar with his skill. Later, he deduced it based on what he said before, and got confirmation from Aubrey. "

Sherlock pulled his hands out of the pockets of Aurora's coat, turned his body slightly and put his right hand into her right pocket, and walked slowly through the streets of Hong Kong with his arms around her.

"This is a very unique market in Tung Chung, called 'Hong Kong Market'. I've always wanted to visit here." Aurora raised her hand and rubbed her ears that were a little red from the cold, and said with a smile Said.

This market is located in Tung Chung, Hong Kong. The whole street follows the decoration of the Kowloon Walled City in the 60s of the last century, including the old postbox at the gate and various old stalls. It has a strong nostalgic color and will be The old Hong Kong culture is displayed in front of you one by one.The nearby shops are also playing classic old songs at a very high volume. Shopping in this environment is also a special experience.

Sherlock glanced at Aurora's tightly covered ears, and led her straight into a shop selling scarves on the side of the road.

There are all kinds of scarves hanging in the store. The store’s recommended area is a Korean-style double-sided plaid thickened dual-purpose scarf. It can also be used as a shawl or blanket when unfolded. The colors are richer, such as navy blue, light gray pink, Available in black and beige, it feels like cashmere.

However, Sherlock just picked a hair from it, twirled it in his hands, and concluded that the material of this scarf was not good, and it was like when he took Aurora to pick out an evening dress and almost looked through all the scarves in the entire store. Spotted a reversible solid color wide long scarf, and some beautiful plum embroidery on the edge.It has to be said that his taste is still good, and Aurora happened to only see this one when looking at the whole shop.

Sherlock's eyes went straight past the bright colors at the front, but chose a dark blue hanging behind the rose red and orange red, turned around and circled around Aurora's neck and On her little head, although the scarf was tied neither in a tongue knot nor in a French knot, it just covered her two bright red ears.

Aurora only felt that Sherlock was very close to her, and she didn't know if it was because she suddenly put on a warm scarf, her cheeks became steamy, turning from white to pink and then from pink to red.She only felt that her ears, which were almost frozen, were now warm, and she seemed to feel the same feeling in her heart, a warmth.

However, the two of them were confused when they paid the bill. First of all, Aurora had exchanged Hong Kong dollars with British pounds early in the morning, so there was no trouble.The point is that they don't understand what the proprietress says, and they also don't understand the price tags on the shelves.The proprietress speaks Cantonese, of course there is no doubt about it, and it is normal for Aurora to not understand, but the price is not the usual Arabic numerals, but a very strange symbol.

Forgive Aurora for being ignorant, but she really couldn't recognize what this symbol was.

"How much is this scarf?" Aurora could only speak very standard Mandarin with trepidation to talk to the proprietress, not sure if she could understand what she was talking about.

Facts have proved that there are still quite a few mainland Chinese who come here to travel. Of course, the proprietress who runs a business here and does not rest even during the Chinese New Year can still speak Mandarin, but it is not very correct and has an accent.Not only did she answer Aurora's question, but she also explained to her and Sherlock what the ghost-like thing marked on the shelf was.

According to the proprietress, this thing is called Suzhou Mazi, which, as the name suggests, is a "commercial number" used by folks in Suzhou, China.Legend has it that Suzhou Mazi is a counting system that originated in the history of Chinese culture, and it is the only counting system that is still in use today.Nowadays, few people use this method of counting, and only some market shops or old-style tea restaurants in Hong Kong and Macau still use Suzhou codes to mark prices.

It is rare that there are things that Sherlock, who claims to be well-informed and omniscient, has not heard of. Listening to the lady boss's patient explanation, Aurora glanced at him next to him gloatingly, covered her mouth and laughed, while being very attentive I firmly remembered this newly lit knowledge.

After wandering around the market all morning, the duo of Sherlock and Aurora found a tea house on the side of the road to rest.Aurora has never watched Lao She's drama "Tea House". Before that, she always thought that a tea house was just a place for customers to drink tea. She didn't expect that there are countless dim sum here. There are beef bacon and char siew buns, just looking at the menu makes her drool.

Of course, as a tea house, tea is of course indispensable, especially the top ten famous teas in China, such as Tieguanyin, Lu'an Guapian, Keemun Black Tea, Xinyang Maojian, Junshan Yinzhen, and Biluochun, which are all ranked at the bottom of the menu. Front.
