Xiaoxia was helping the director check the files, and it was already past dinner when she returned home. As soon as she entered the door, she only saw Wanli sitting there reading a book with relish.

"Where is Ruan Zhan?"

"He went to the supermarket to buy things." Wan Litou didn't raise his head.

"But his car is still outside." Xiao Xia looked out the door. The weather is very abnormal today. In mid-November, it started to rain in winter. It felt very wet and cold. If you were wet, you would definitely get sick.

"It's not far, ten minutes away, he used his legs."

"Have you brought an umbrella?"

"Ah?" Wanli finally looked up, "Is it raining? I thought it would snow. Don't worry, he is not stupid, he will wait until the rain stops before coming back." He also ran to the door to see the weather, "However, the winter rain seems not easy to stop, so it's hard to say. He has something to do tonight, and maybe he will run back in the rain."

"Can you pick him up?"

"No." Wanli was surprised by Xiaoxia's proposal. "Two big men picked it up. People who don't know the inside story will think that we have broken arms and seriously damaged my image. Also, what should he do if he falls in love with me for this?"

Xiao Xia was furious, "I won't listen to your nonsense, I'll go by myself."

"You? No, right? This little rain won't hurt you."

"He is our only great wizard. If there is a shortage of things, everyone will not have a good life." Xiao Xia said as she ran upstairs, then took an umbrella and ran out again.

She didn't want Ruan Zhan to get sick, because she couldn't figure out whether she wanted to make better use of him or felt sorry for him.

Wanli watched Xiaoxia come and go in a hurry, unable to even get a word. He could only remain silent for a while at the breath that seemed to be still turbulent, and then said to himself: "Now Azhan is going to hand over the gun. This dead girl is hitting his weakness." He slowly walked back to his seat, remembering the childhood he spent with Ruan Zhan.

At that time, every rainy season, the school gate was full of students after the rain, and they took umbrellas to pick up their children home. Although Ruan Zhan's father adopted him, he was very serious and indifferent to him and never took him to school. Whenever he was at this time, Ruan Zhan would leave alone in the rain, without knowing to shelter from the rain, and would not run away, and just walked back step by step. Even if anyone wanted to hold an umbrella with him, he stubbornly refused. For this reason, the people in the town were even more rumored how strange Ruan Zhan was.

He didn't understand when he was a child, and he was too angry about this, thinking that everyone is good friends, so why should they share with each other? But after Ruan Zhan's only drunken time since he was a child, he realized that Ruan Zhan was so envious of someone who could wait for him in the rain, and so longed for someone to pick him up when it rained, even if it was only once.

But he has never enjoyed such ordinary warmth!

Now that confused but considerate Xiao Xia ran away rashly, making the first time in Azhan's life, which may make his cold heart melt for her. How ridiculous it is, so many women want to capture Ruan Zhan's heart, but no one thought that just such a small thing could be done.

Thinking of this, he could no longer calm down and read the book. He ran to the eaves at the entrance of the store to look around, but Xiao Xia was gone.

Because Xiao Xia was running away quickly, for fear of not being able to catch up, she saw Ruan Zhan carrying a bag of things from a distance, and walked out without thinking, "Stop!" She shouted, scaring many people, including Ruan Zhan.

Running made her chest undulate violently, and her feet were so weak that she had to grab Ruan Zhan's arm with one hand to maintain balance. "Do you have some common sense?" She blamed her loudly, regardless of whether anyone was watching. "If there is any important thing, you have to leave immediately. You will definitely get sick when you are in the rain."

Ruan Zhan stood there, a little confused for a moment. He watched Xiao Xia try to calm down his breathing, holding the umbrella in his hand, and listened to her complaining to him in a tone that only when she talked to the person she was closest to, and suddenly felt something collapsed in his heart and could not say a word.

"Yeah? I won't leave again? Why am I recruiting you? Because I teach you not to get wet in the rain? A childish man!" Xiao Xia didn't understand Ruan Zhan's silence and rudely pulled his arm, "Stand closer, I had known to take two umbrellas, and I was always with you, and even I was stupid. Hey, why don't you stand and don't move? Are you really angry?"

“――――”

"Hey, what's wrong? What's the matter?"

"No." Ruan Zhan smiled, rolled his throat up and down several times, and finally spoke, "Let's go."

He stepped forward and wrapped Xiaoxia's shoulders and led her to his chest, which made Xiaoxia's body stiffen for a moment, and felt that the two of them were a little too close to standing under an umbrella like this. But before she could confirm whether this was appropriate, she felt that something white was swooping towards her and pounced on the ground one foot in front of her.

She subconsciously screamed, and suddenly she found that lying under her feet was a paper crane, with pale body and blood-red eyes.

"It's this thing again, it's really annoying. Is it popular to fold this now?" She kicked her, but didn't kick the wet paper crane far away.

The uninvited guest made Ruan Zhan frown suddenly, glance at the paper crane, and then did nothing. He just looked around invisibly and confirmed that there was no other person nearby. "It's coming from Japan, maybe it means blessing. Don't worry about it, go back first."

He hugged Xiaoxia's shoulders and carefully stepped over the corpse of the paper crane. A trace of incapable of grasping appeared in his mind, "Do you often see this?"

“It’s often happening lately.”

“Where did you see it?”

"Are you interested in this?" Xiao Xia was a little curious.

"No, just chatting. Maybe I also learned to origami crane and pray for peace for you!"

"No!" Xiao Xia refused flatly, and his reaction made Ruan Zhan feel her uneasy, "I don't like this, its red eyes make me feel uncomfortable. If you give it to me, I will throw it into your face. Don't blame me for not telling you in advance!"

"If you don't like it, you won't give it to you, but you may be nervous!"

This paper crane should have been controlled by the magic trick and flew into the air because of the rain! There must be problems here, he must think about it carefully.

"Anyway, I hate this. I must be a dead child who doesn't know where to go and throw it around every day. I once saw it on my balcony, by the window of the company, and also when I was having dinner with Wanli. It seemed that I had a grudge against me, and I always followed me."

"Don't be afraid, it's just a piece of paper." He comforted her softly, hugged her shoulders tighter towards him, and experienced this rare warm time.

Xiaoxia did not notice Ruan Zhan's different behavior from the past, and still told the trouble that the paper crane caused to her. When she walked to the door of the store, Ruan Zhan suddenly stopped, "I like white shirts." He said to her.

"Ah?" Xiao Xia didn't hear it clearly for a moment.

"I mean - a pure cotton white shirt is better than a mink coat." Ruan Zhan said again, and without waiting for Xiao Xia to say anything, he walked back to the store until he drove to carry out his tracking mission later, without saying a word.

"It's so late, why did he go out for?" Xiao Xia asked Wan Li suspiciously.

Thinking of what Ruan Zhan said just now, she felt very happy, but now she felt that these two men seemed to have something hidden from her.

"Are you married him?" Wan Li asked back.

"Hey, you came from an alien? You don't understand Chinese, why don't you say the preface?"

"Since it's not his wife, do you care where he is going? Maybe he is attending the charlatan conference, maybe he is going to pick up girls. Going upstairs to sleep, if you don't have enough sleep, you will easily get wrinkles."

"Isn't it rare if you don't say it, it's rare? I just want to ask if it's related to the Huahui case. Do you think I'm so gossipy? You men are the best at covering each other and ignore you!"

Wanli made a gesture of invitation.

Seeing that Xiao Xia couldn't find anything, Wanli looked like he had something to do, so he simply went upstairs alone.

She lay on the bed and waited quietly, thinking about how to know what Ruan Zhan was doing mysteriously. But she didn't think of it until it was almost midnight, and Ruan Zhan did not come back, and Wan Li didn't go upstairs at all. She herself was confused and half-awake.

In the dream, she felt an unusual smell and noise, and she didn't realize what it was, but when the feeling became deeper and deeper, she suddenly sat up from the bed.

The sound of beeping and the smell of fireworks -

Could it be that it caught fire?!

She hurriedly jumped out of bed and ran to the stairs barefoot. She saw that the first floor had gradually become a sea of ​​fire. At the edge of the sea of ​​fire, Wan Li sat on the chair motionless, not knowing whether he was choking by smoke or sleeping without knowing the situation.

"Wanli, wake up! It's on fire!" She shouted and ran downstairs, shaking at Wanli, but Wanli still didn't wake up, as if she had died.

"Wanli! What's wrong with you? Wake up!" She called again, but he still didn't move.

She looked around anxiously, at a loss.

The fire became even stronger at this time, and the invisible gossip made of transparent tubes made of unknown material on the front door was shattered, making a "bang" sound, which scared Xiao Xia subconsciously hugged her head.

Then, as it was completely burned, Xiao Xia suddenly felt that time and space had changed. It was still the same place, but it felt like something was wrong. A chill rose around her, and there was a chill in the fire. She saw the flame twisting strangely, stroking the surrounding objects like a human hand. Wherever she went, the fire spread faster. In the flames by the door, several black figures suddenly appeared stood upright and posed in boxing positions.

It's the burned person!

This perception made Xiaoxia so scared that she pulled Xin Wanli's hand tightly, although he still didn't wake up. She had been exposed to such cases, and those who were burned to death would become such a tight posture, which was called a fighting fist-like shape in identification science.

These charred figures made long moans, and were maliciously emerging from the flames and moving towards them! It was very slow, as if struggling to break through the invisible boundaries, but they were getting closer and closer.

Ruan Zhan has not returned the amulet to her yet, and the Blood Wood Sword is still upstairs. She is almost rationed by the evil ghost. She wants to run away, but she can't leave it alone.
