Snowflakes were silently falling in the sky, and the stars were as fine as ice crystals.

The first snow in January is normal for Tokyo. In the past 60 years, the first snow has fallen in November, and the autumn foliage has only been seen twice, and the rest of December and January are almost half open – even under normal conditions, Tokyoites are showing great interest in snow.

After all, it's a rarity, and there is only one or two snows a year in Tokyo, so it's not surprising that there are no special years.

Dongying's entire national aesthetic is biased towards parasitic mourning, and likes fleeting, delicate and fragile things. Such as cherry blossoms, fireworks, etc., beauty is beautiful, but it is destined to be short-lived and disappear in a blink of an eye.

The snowflakes also melt, and it is difficult to last, and it is also included in this range, and all pedestrians see the snowflakes falling, all of them smile and take pictures. Naoto Yoshiwara strolled through the streets, and what he saw was a joyful admiration, many cute girls opened their arms, laughing and jumping in circles, looking up to welcome the snowflakes falling, and silver bells instantly fell all over the street.

Naoto Yoshihara couldn't help but smile with satisfaction—these girls are really amazing when it's snowing, and they're really good!

But he watched a lot along the way, and he thought it was a little funny, probably similar to the way northerners look when they see southerners rolling in the snow excitedly—desperately trying not to roll their eyes! Please, don't be so excited about the next snow, right?

He shook his shoulders slightly, and looked up at the sky, which was gray and oppressive. He actually didn't like snow, and one of the worst experiences in his life happened in the snowfield, when the gale was like a knife, and the palm-sized snowflakes were unbelievable, but he knew it in person, and the snowflakes could really be the size of a man's palm. didn't say whether it would freeze or not, just said that the lost heat made him afraid that he would freeze to death in the next second.

It's definitely not a pleasant memory, but fortunately, there are still big white legs to see in Tokyo.

He had just sent Nana Hoshino and Yayoi Satsuki home, and he was on his way to meet Tofuori. There was a party in the evening, and Tobu insisted that he, the president, should also come forward in person.

Although Hu Bu Weaving is the old scalper he found to work, no, he found a professional manager to preside over the work, but he was embarrassed not to do anything at all, and turned a deaf ear to her reasonable requests, so he had to reluctantly embarrass him.

After delivering the two of them, he left the car downstairs. There is little snow in Tokyo, so it is not cost-effective to invest heavily in snow and skid prevention, but occasionally it does snow, and the traffic situation is chaotic, and the driving is not as fast as walking.

Anyway, it was still early, so he walked all the way through the park alleys and took a shortcut to the company. When passing by a small park, he suddenly saw a figure that looked a little familiar, and he couldn't help but take a closer look, but found that it was Nishikujo Ruri.

Nishikujo Ruri looked like she had been sitting there for quite some time, and a layer of snow had fallen on her hair and shoulders. She was still wearing a small suit, wearing a white trench coat outside, and was a little dazed in the long bread in her hand, slightly breaking out some bread crumbs and scattering them in front of her, but unfortunately there were not many snowbirds, only occasionally a peck fell for a moment and flew away immediately.

Naoto Yoshihara watched curiously for a moment and was about to leave, but Nishikujo Ruri seemed to feel his gaze, and suddenly turned his head to look, and the two looked at each other, and they were both stunned for a moment.

This is also an acquaintance, and it is inappropriate not to greet each other when they meet, Naoto Yoshihara immediately raised his hand and smiled: "Hello, Nishikujo Police Department!"

Nishikujo Ruri also stood up from the bench, bowed his head shallowly and said, "Hello, Yoshihara-san." ”

The two people don't have a deep friendship, and it's hard to say whether they are friends or enemies, and they are speechless after greeting each other. After a moment of silence, Naoto Yoshihara's eyes couldn't help but turn around on the most half of the bread stick - in his impression, Nishikujo Ruri has always been cold, with a cold and hard aura, and he acts quite harshly, it is hard to imagine that such a person would sit blankly in the park when it snows to feed the birds.

Nishikujo Ruri also noticed his gaze, and suddenly the two sword eyebrows raised slightly, and the bread stick in his hand tightened. After a moment, she took the initiative to break the silence: "Aren't Hoshino-chan and Satsuki-chan with you?"

"Oh, what? Ah, they're at home!"

After the two of them finished asking and answering, the scene fell silent again. Naoto Yoshihara felt that it was time to leave, the other party obviously had something on his mind, and the identities of the two people were different, an official and a thief, and it always felt a little embarrassing to get together, he opened his mouth and said: "I won't disturb Yaxing of the Nishikujo Police Department who admires the snow, I ......"

As soon as he opened his mouth, Ruri Nishikujo also spoke, "Do you want to have a drink, Yoshihara......-san?"

The two of them spoke at the same time and closed their mouths at the same time, and after a moment of silence, Naoto Yoshiwara asked in surprise, "Drinking?"

Nishikujo Ruri nodded lightly: "Beichuan said that you are a good drinking friend, are you interested in going for a drink?" I know there is a standing bar next to the station in front, do you want to go?"

Naoto Yoshihara was suspicious in an instant, if someone else asked him out, it was still early, he didn't mind drinking two sips of bragging and bragging, but if it was changed to Nishikujo Ruri, he would have to think more - wasn't he setting up a trap to catch himself, right?

It's impossible to catch yourself, where you live is a record, and Nishikujo Ruri also knows it. If you want to arrest it, Nishikujo Ruri has already led a large team of people to the door, so there is no need to be so troublesome. That's trying to talk nonsense? It's not right, I've been honest during this time, that is, I haven't committed adultery, let alone committed crimes, there's no reason!

Could it be that Hoshino Nana got a lot of money weirdly, and there must be something wrong with it! Is this an incident? This woman seems to have always been very interested in Hoshino Nana, what does she know?

In an instant, Naoto Yoshihara's pupils shrank, and a thick vigilance rose in his heart, and he said tentatively: "This is really a little unexpected, how did you suddenly receive such an invitation...... Why did the Nishikujo Police Department suddenly become interested in drinking?"

Nishikujo Ruri's eyes were dilated for a moment, and he said lightly: "It's just that I suddenly want to have a drink, and there's no reason." ”

As the saying goes, the body is not afraid of the shadow, and Naoto Yoshihara is a tree with a crooked neck, and the shadow is twisted into a demon and a monster nine times out of ten. It was hard for him not to think about the meeting as he listened to Ruri Nishikujo's answer—was the encounter a coincidence or an ambush? What was the purpose of the sudden invitation? What was the other party's plan in mind?

However, his personality is not the kind of person who avoids distress, so he calmly accepted the challenge and stretched out his hand with a smile: "That's an honor, let's go, Nishikujo Police Department." ”

In the snowflakes, the two men walked along the park's gravel path towards the station.

Snowflakes fall slowly, and a gentle breeze blows shallowly. In the haze, the man was tall and mild, the woman was slender and elegant, and the oncoming college girls seemed to see the scene in the morning drama, and couldn't help but get together and whisper, and kept looking back at each other after walking by - if only that man wasn't a bald head, otherwise it would really be a pair of wall people. Wow, it's good that you can encounter such a romance when you're in love.

Walking in the snow, the heart is not drunk.

Naoto Yoshiwara didn't feel romantic at all, he smiled on the surface, and listened carefully to everything around him, lest two people suddenly appear on the side of the road and tie him up with a netting gun.

The older the rivers and lakes, the less courageous they are.

He tentatively asked, "Do you often have a drink at the Nishikujo Police Department, and what kind of wine do you like?"

Nishikujo Ruri stared ahead and said lightly, "I don't drink it very often, but I drink a little occasionally at the party I have to go to." She glanced sideways at Naoto Yoshihara, "It's not as impressive as Yoshihara-san." ”

She may never forget the appearance of Kitagawa Jiro, who is known as "a thousand cups are not drunk", when she was carried away.

Naoto Yoshihara nodded silently, and echoed with a smile: "This is a sudden interest, and I'm the same, and I occasionally want to have a drink...... But I really didn't expect the Nishikujo Police Department to invite me. ”

Nishikujo Ruri was silent for a while, and laughed at herself: "I don't know who to invite, it's too strange to go by myself, and I just happened to meet you." ”

Naoto Yoshihara smiled and said nothing, I can't believe this! Who doesn't have a friend, how can he drink and can't find anyone, and then he meets someone on the road and arrests him?

He didn't ask any more questions, and waited to see what tricks Nishikujo Ruri played. He shook the scarf around his neck and changed the subject: "Why don't you pay attention to keeping warm when you go out in winter at the Nishikujo Police Department, do you want to use my scarf?"

He had an earnest, gentlemanly face, and seemed very gentle. However, this did not prevent him from realizing that the situation was wrong after a while, and directly used this scarf to hang Nishikujo Ruri.

"No, thank you for your kindness, just out of the park. Nishikujo Ruri lightly refused, and her eyes moved to a little girl walking towards her.

The little girl was probably very happy when it snowed, and she was jumping up and down chasing the snowflakes, throwing her mother off a lot. She seemed to notice that something was wrong, and turned back to greet her mother while running and jumping, but her feet slipped, her small body twisted a few times, and she quickly stretched out her arms to maintain balance.

"Be careful!" Nishikujo Ruri exclaimed coldly, and Naoto Yoshihara suddenly bent over and was about to burst out and hurt people, thinking that there was really an ambush, but he saw Nishikujou Ruri suddenly rush towards the little girl.

The little girl didn't fall and barely managed to maintain her balance, and after a few steps, Nishikujo Ruri slowed down and slowly greeted her. She squatted down and smiled: "The road is slippery in snowy weather, pay attention to safety." ”

The little girl looked at Nishikujo Ruri with a pair of big watery eyes, and after a while, the little face showed a look of fear, turned around and fled to her mother, and she slipped without running a few steps, and suddenly burst into tears, and shouted: "Mom! Mom!"

Naoto Yoshihara was stunned and scared to death, but what was the situation?
