Chapter 22: The Grey World (2)

After washing up in her room in the morning, Naine Hinata stood in front of the door, but she couldn't reach for the doorknob for a long time. Having nothing to do with reason, she instinctively fears the outside world.

She had to arrive at the Pavilion before eight o'clock, but her body couldn't move.

If she continues like this, she'll be late. By that time, the boy named "Sinapus" from last night might be gone, and she would have lost the chance she had so recently appeared.

A year ago, Li Mengxi silently disappeared from the city without saying goodbye. This made Hinata Nain unacceptable, she believed that at least Li Mengxi and herself had formed a deep bond, which was a companionship formed by the same experience of life and death and shared responsibility.

Therefore, even if Li Mengxi is not obliged to tell others his whereabouts, at least he needs to tell himself things like "I'm going to leave for a while"!

However, he did not do so. Whether he can't, whether he doesn't dare, or doesn't want to, the reason for this is unknown.

She felt that something must have happened in the hours between she and Li Mengxi until she found out that he was missing in the morning. But she didn't know what it was, and where to start if she wanted to investigate.

From that day on, Nayin Hinata would send an email to Li Mengxi every once in a while. At first, I just asked him about his situation, but gradually I became like I was writing a diary and a weekly diary to tell him interesting things about what happened on my side. Regardless, she never received a reply.

In the past year, she still doesn't know what Li Mengxi's situation is, what she has experienced, and what she has done.

Hinata even wondered if Li Mengxi would be dead, but the name in the friend list was still on, and there was no tombstone with Li Mengxi's name written on it in the cemetery outside the South City Gate. But if he is still alive, there is no other evidence.

As a result, she didn't even know whether Li Mengxi was dead or alive.

In the past year, Hinata Nain has accumulated too many "don't know" about Li Mengxi. And the more you don't know, the stronger the desire to know.

Now that there is finally someone who can tell her about Li Mengxi, how could she miss this opportunity!

At this thought, Hinata Nain clenched her trembling fists fiercely, and then tensed the muscles of her whole body. At the same time, her heart rate climbed because of her decision.

Then, she took a deep breath, and with this breath, she rushed out of the room and out of the hotel.

When his feet stepped on the ground of the street, a voice rang in Hinata's ears.

"You're really going!"

It was Jasmine's voice, and Hinata looked to the right when she heard the sound and saw the slender figure that was a little taller than herself.

"Jasmine, have you been waiting here?"

"It doesn't matter! It's you, you're really going to see that suspicious guy!"

"Don't worry, this is in the city, there is a system to protect him. ”

"That's right. Jasmine said and looked at Hinata carefully, "But doesn't it matter what you're doing?"

"It's so much better than yesterday. Nane Hinata smiled and raised her palm. It looked exactly what she said, but she was still trembling slightly.

Seeing this, Jasmine stretched out her hands and held up Hinata's palms.

"There's really no way, sister, I'll go with you. ”

Seeing this, Naine Hinata showed a grateful smile.

"Then please. ”

In this way, she mustered up the courage to go to the restaurant of Yan Shan Ting, which she had not been to for a long time.

It was 8:15 a.m. for the two to enter the store. Although he was still late, the boy he had seen last night, Sinapus, did not leave because of this. He was sitting in the last seat by the window and looking out at the street.

So, the two walked straight over.

Hearing footsteps, Sinaps looked up and smiled kindly.

"Good morning, two beautiful young ladies. As he spoke, he made a gesture of invitation to the empty seat in front of him. Although the etiquette did not reach the point of getting up, it was completely two people compared to the latest angry look.

This huge sense of contrast made Hinata and Jasmine think they were the wrong person for a moment, and they were stunned for a moment before they reacted.

"Good morning. The two replied one after the other, and then sat down across from Sinapus. Nane Hinata is inside, Jasmine is outside.

As soon as "that ......" was seated, Naine Hinata couldn't wait to ask about Li Mengxi. But it was interrupted by a gesture made by Sinapus.

"Don't be in a hurry. He said so, then looked at the waiter NPC in the distance and tapped it twice. The NPC then took action, and after a while, he came to the table with three cups of coffee, and carefully placed them in front of the three guests one by one.

"Please take your time. After respectfully saying that, the NPC left.

"Well, let's introduce myself first......" Sineps took a sip of his steaming coffee.

"We know that!" said Jasmine, impatiently, "didn't you say your name was Sinapus last night!"

"I also know this level of things, for example, your name is Jasmine Lan, and this is Nayin Hinata-san. But do we know each other just by knowing the name?"

"Regardless of this, how did you know our names?" asked Hinata in some confusion, rubbing her hands over her coffee cup to suppress her fear.

"Because the deputy of the contemptible person is an informant. Sinapus bowed slightly, "Look, now you know who I am. For example, Jasmine, what I'm going to talk about today is about Li Mengxi, what is your relationship with him, so you have to attend?"

"Huh!" Jasmine couldn't help but be speechless for a moment. What is the relationship between her and Li Mengxi, this question is a bit too far for her. Because, she hasn't even seen a real person yet, but she has often heard Hinata mention her name.

"Jasmine is my friend. Seeing this, Hinata immediately explained for Jasmine.

"In other words, Jasmine-san is here as a friend of Hinata-san, providing you with support. ”

"Isn't it okay?" asked Jasmine, confidently.

"Nothing can't be done. Originally, this was not important. Sinapus said lightly, causing Jasmine's face to be a little sad, "What I want to know is, what is the relationship between Hinata-san and Li Mengxi?"

"Partners who experience life and death together!" replied Hinata without hesitation.

I see, this is also a weighty answer. However, I thought you and him must be in a romantic relationship. As he spoke, Sinaps looked a look of regret after guessing the puzzle incorrectly. On the other hand, Naine Hinata was already red-faced, and lowered her head as low as she wanted.

"Hey, you don't even know what the relationship between Nayin and Li Mengxi is, and you can still say the kind of thing you did last night!" Jasmine yelled angrily. In her opinion, the young man in front of her was just teasing the two of them from just now.

"Is this a contradiction?" asked Sinapus with a puzzled expression, "Even if I have anything to do with Li Mengxi, I don't have the obligation to know his interpersonal relationships, right? ”

"You're a person! if you're a friend, it's a matter of course to get to know the people around you!" Jasmine became more and more angry.

"Well, then, Jasmine doesn't have to be so angry. Sinaps smiled reassuringly, "I'm not friends with him. ”

One sentence made Jasmine and Hinata stunned. They had no idea what the person in front of them was thinking.

"The relationship between me and Li Mengxi should be said to be disgusted with each other. Sinapus continued to speak unconsciously.

And his words also made Hinata Nayin vigilant, and his expression became serious. Because generally speaking, people do not have casual contact with the relatives and friends of the people they hate, and if they do, it means that there is some conspiracy.

"Are you his enemy? Hinata asked in a deep voice.

That's not quite right. "I often cause trouble for him, and he sometimes makes me unhappy. However, I don't want to really do any real harm to him, let alone his relatives and friends. ”

"You mean competition?" asked Hinata in a tentative tone.

"Hmm...... That's not quite right, either. All in all, I enjoy being in trouble with him, but I don't expect hatred or hatred. That's the kind of relationship. ”

Generally speaking, this kind of thinking should be called "cheapness".

Although they think so, how can Hinata and Jasmine say it.

"What a strange relationship. Hinata said with a smile on her face.

"I mean, it's almost time for you to get down to business. Jasmine shook her head weakly.

"Hmm. That's a good point. I've had enough, so let's get started. Li Mengxi and I first met almost a year ago......"
