This is Ritsuko's first time leaving the snow country, leaving this paradise-like town.

Wherever you go, you'll see many ghost hunters dressed in white with swords in their hands.

Although it is like a snowy town during the day, when the sun sets, when you walk down the street, there is no one but them who patrol at night.

Before it gets dark, it's deserted.

Fear is about to spread into the night.

"Little girl, you're a foreigner, aren't you? It's about to get dark, I don't know what's going on in this area of the capital recently, it's easy to run into cloud ghosts, you better take your brother to find an inn to live in, you must remember to lock the doors and windows, don't let the cloud ghosts get across. ”

Before the city gate was closed, Ritsuko finally ran into the capital with Lu Li.

Seeing that the two of them did not look like people in the city, the guard guarding the door kindly pointed out the nearest direction of the inn for Ritsuko.

It was almost the only place in the capital that was still open with candles lit.

Even the Qinglou, which sings every night on weekdays, closed the door at this time and extinguished the lanterns, saying that it was a matter of urgency, and the top girls in the courtyard could not have anything to do with it.

"Thank you for the reminder."

"Girl, you'd better hurry up, in a few moments, the inn should also close its door, it's not safe in the capital at night." Even though the guard stood up straight, he still wanted to glance at Ritsuko's face from time to time.

It's just that Ritsuko's appearance is one of the best in the capital, and anyone can't help but want to take a few more looks.

But it's a pity that the young man next to her always stares at those who peep at Ritsuko with a gloomy face, which is really a little scary.

"In that case, let's go quickly, otherwise the inn will be closed, and we will have nowhere to go." Ritsuko bowed to the guards, thanked them, and hurried into the empty and deserted Beijing Avenue.

It was as if it had been enveloped in a cloudy yellow mist.

Visibility seems to have been inadvertently reduced slightly.

"Ritsuko-san, there's a problem with the fog here." The voice of the deviant sounded in Ritsuko's ears, but it was a little weak.

"Questions? What's the problem. "It's just that Ritsuko didn't feel any discomfort in her body.

"The mist is full of the sweet smell of humans, and I am afraid that it is used to attract cloud ghosts."

"Does this mist smell? Why can't I smell it? Ritsuko sniffed carefully, but there was only a faint smell of earth.

"It's a smell that only cloud ghosts can smell, and it seems to have weakened my energy, and the spatial camouflage is almost unbearable."

Ritsuko looked at the Li, the blood-red of his eyes looming, and the amber eyes flickered in the mist, like hungry beasts.

Just looking at it like this, a kind of fear came over her.

"What can I do then......"

"If there is no disguise, the pupils of the cloud ghost will glow at night, and it will be easily detected by the ghost hunters."

Ritsuko only thought for a moment at a moment's notice at a loss, but as if she had made a major decision, her tone became calm.

"Lu Li, you close your eyes."

"Why do you close your eyes, you can't see the road......"

"Since you're afraid of being discovered by the ghost hunters, why don't you just close your eyes, so that you won't be discovered by the ghost hunters, right?"

"That being said, I closed my eyes ......"

"Don't worry, I'll lead you away, and when I get to the inn, I say you can open your eyes, and you can open your eyes again."

"Lead...... Leading? Yu Li was shocked, although he was a little reluctant, but at this moment he still listened to Ritsuko's words and obediently closed his eyes.

The beastly sight was gone.

Ritsuko finally breathed a sigh of relief.

There was a soft touch on his wrist, which made him a little numb, is this the temperature of human beings?

His face turned red unconsciously, and he could only let Ritsuko pull him forward, and there was only darkness in front of his eyes.

……

……

"Hey! Guest officer over there! The shop will be closing soon! If you're staying at a hotel, go a little faster! ”

In the dim light in front of her, a figure stood in front of the half-closed inn door, waving desperately at her.

It was the inn's shopkeeper, and this inn, as the guard said, was going to close.

Ritsuko didn't think about it anymore, so she took Lu Li's hand and walked a few steps towards the inn.

"Yu Li, you watch the steps."

Fortunately, this shopkeeper is really kind, and he really can't bear to see Ritsuko, who is only a few steps away, being locked out of the inn by himself.

So he shrank in the shop, only opening the door with a small crack, and looking out through the small crack, so as to wait for Ritsuko and Yu to get closer, and to let as little fog into the inn as possible.

The door of the store was wide open, and the shopkeeper smiled sideways.

"Two guest officers, please come inside."
