"What? Are you going to Kazamino? Listening to Li Xiao's words, Apricot showed a surprised expression.

Li Xiao nodded: "Well, can you go with me?" I've never been to Kazamino City, so I'd like you to be my guide. ”

Apricot scratched her head: "It's okay to go with you, but why do you suddenly want to go to Kazamino?" ”

"Well...... Actually, there is a little bit of a personal matter. Li Xiao said with a smile.

"Uh-huh, that's suspicious." Apricot squinted her eyes and stared at Li Xiao suspiciously, but then she waved her hand indifferently. "But since it's a private matter, I won't ask, so when will you leave?"

Li Xiao: "Tomorrow." ”

"So fast!" Apricot was slightly surprised.

Li Xiao: "Go the same day, come back the same day." ”

Kyoko thought for a moment, and then nodded briskly: "Okay, I promise you, it just so happens that there is a ramen restaurant over there that I often go to, and you will have a treat when the time comes." ”

Li Xiao smiled slightly: "No problem." ”

At dinner, Li Xiao told everyone about going to Fengjianye, although everyone was very strange, but seeing that Li Xiao didn't want to explain, everyone didn't continue to ask. The next day, after breakfast, Li Xiao and Apricot set off.

The city of Kazamino is adjacent to the city of Mitakino, and the two cities are very close to each other, and there is a direct bus from Mitakino to Fumino City. After getting into the car, Apricot didn't know where to take out a box of Pocky and started eating it again. Li Xiao Xingzi suddenly remembered something, and he said to Xingzi: "By the way, Xingzi, are you still wanted by the police of Fengjianye?" ”

Apricot was stunned for a moment, holding half a Pocky in her mouth, and recalled: "Uh...... I seem. ”

Li Xiao slapped his head speechlessly: "Forget about this stubble." ”

Apricot snorted confidently: "It's no big deal, the police can't catch me." ”

After Apricot finished speaking, the bus let out a strong roar, and the exhaust pipe spewed out a cloud of white smoke, and the car slowly drove away from the bus stop.

The bus is double-decker, the upper deck is open-topped, and Li Xiao and Apricot sit on the upper deck, and they sit opposite each other. I don't know for what reason, there are very few people in the car, and there are only two people in the entire upper floor, Li Xiao and Apricot. Because it is open-topped, the view is particularly good, the bus is driving on the spacious road, and the high-rise buildings with unique styles on both sides flash quickly beside Li Xiao, disappearing at the end of the field of vision one by one. However, Li Xiao was not in the mood to enjoy the cityscape of Takihara now, his mood was very chaotic at the moment, he knew that he was about to solve the mystery, but he was worried that the mystery was really as he expected.

An hour later, after crossing a bridge, buses left the city, and the buildings on both sides of the road slowly became scarce.

"It's almost half an hour before we get to Kazamino." Apricot suddenly said that she had finished eating Pocky by this time, and then immediately pulled out another packet of potato chips out of nowhere. "Do you want to eat? Dawn. Apricot handed the potato chips to Li Xiao.

Li Xiao shook his head: "Thank you, I don't have an appetite now." ”

Apricot stared at Li Xiao's face carefully, and then continued, "Xiao, do you have anything on your mind?" ”

Li Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "By you?" ”

"Of course, it's all written on your face, and when I left in the morning, that Asami guy secretly asked me what happened to you." Apricot said.

"Really?" Li Xiao was a little surprised, knowing that Ba Mamei cared about her so much, she couldn't help but be a little happy in her heart.

Apricot looked at Li Xiao with a serious expression: "Xiao, I don't know if you have any private affairs, if you don't say it, I won't ask deeply." But if you need my help, just ask, and I'm here to help. ”

Li Xiao didn't expect Apricot to say these words to himself, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then, he couldn't help but laugh happily: "Thank you, Apricot, these words from you are enough." ”

The bus continued to run on the spacious highway, I don't know when, there was no shadow of buildings on both sides of the road, there was a car around, and there was also a person, Li Xiao and Apricot took this bus as if it was driving alone at the end of the world. Li Xiao looked into the distance, and Li Xiao could only have a vague shadow on the horizon, as if it was an inferior map in the game, and Li Xiao couldn't even tell whether those shadows were buildings or mountains or something like that.

Half an hour later, the bus reached a three-way intersection, and the road that had been straight split into three in front of it, stretching out towards the land in the distance. At this time, the sound of the bus stop suddenly sounded:

"Next stop, see Takihara 3-chome."

Then, without hesitation, the bus drove to the far right of the road without hesitation.

Apricot's face immediately changed, she stood up, the road between her was getting farther and farther away from her, and she exclaimed in surprise: "No! This intersection should take the middle road! ”

However, Apricot's voice was drowned out by the roaring motive sound, and no one in the car heard her except Li Xiao—perhaps, they just pretended not to hear it.

Li Xiao also stood up, just in case, he still confirmed first: "Xingzi, we didn't take the wrong car, right?" ”

Kyoko's face was filled with deep doubts: "Impossible, there is only this bus from Takihara to Kazamino, what is going on?" Bus restop? ”

Li Xiao thought for a moment and said to Xingzi, "Let's get out of the car." Then, before Apricot could react, Li Xiao had already jumped off the bus and landed on the side of the road.

After the bus drove out for dozens of meters, Apricot jumped out of the car, she ran back to Li Xiao's side, and complained: "I said, can you not be so sudden next time." ”

Li Xiao ignored Apricot's complaints, his face was gloomy about the road he came from, but now he had already passed by the three-way intersection just now, and there was only one road in front of him that led straight into the distance, at the end of a glance.

"Apricot, let's go back, walk back to the three-way junction just now, and then go to Kazamino." Li Xiao thought for a moment, and then said.

"Walking?" Kyoko just wanted to say, "Are you idle?" But when Xiao's gloomy expression came, her words were swallowed back alive.

Li Xiao and Apricot began to go on the road, at this time, Apricot also faintly felt that something was wrong, Li Xiao and Apricot were in no mood to chat, the two of them were silent, just kept walking back along the road, and the atmosphere gradually became heavy.

After walking for an hour, it was obviously broad daylight, but Li Xiao and Apricot didn't meet a car or a person on the road, the road was still straight into the distance, and there was no end in sight, and Apricot looked up and tried to go into the distance, but even the shadow of the fork in the road.

"I say, is that fork so far away?" The doubts in Apricot Zi's heart became heavier and heavier, and she finally couldn't help but ask.

Li Xiao suddenly stopped, his face sank like water, and said to the apricot: "Apricot, go around." ”

Apricot was stunned for a moment: "...... around" She turned her head casually, her face changed in an instant, I don't know when, the surrounding scenery has completely changed, and a magnificent bridge appeared in front of Li Xiao and Xingzi, and at the other end of the bridge is a bustling modern city. This bridge Apricot has seen, it is the bridge that she and Li Xiao passed when they left to see Takiwara, and the other end of the bridge is the city of Takiwara, she and Li Xiao actually walked back!
