Ivas knocked on the door at least five times, but no one came.

It was already half past one in the afternoon, which was almost the time for ordinary people to take a nap.

But according to the passer-by elves, Ehuas's sister Freya is supposed to wake up at noon in the underworld.

…… She shouldn't go back to sleep right after breakfast, right?

For a moment, a little worry arose in Aihuas's heart—

The main thing is that he immediately thought of the fresh experience of refreshing a corpse after he opened the closet at home.

Sherlock, as a detective, don't really have any incident physique..., give my half-sister who I have never met before and kill me in the air, right?

They waited at the door for a long time, but no one came to open it. Ivas brought up his concerns to Sherlock.

Just as they were about to break down the door, they heard Janis's voice coming from behind them:

"Ivus?"

When I looked back, I saw Janis walking over with a handbag.

She reached for the door, and a doorknob immediately floated on it. She opened the door and walked inside.

"Freya hasn't opened the door......"

Ivas immediately told Janis what he had just seen and heard, and expressed his concern: "She's not going to have an accident, is she?" ”

"Oh, it's fine."

Janis replied, "She should be busy...... Ignore that for now. ”

As they walked inside, Janis walked over to Ivus.

She reached out and pressed the back of Aihuas's head, gritted her teeth and said, "You kid, didn't you say a few words for me before?" ”

"One thing to say, Master Janis. I also think that 200 years of disappearance is a bit excessive. ”

Ivas said solemnly: "If you don't explain it well, you may not have a good friend - it would be a pity." It is because we have a good relationship that I hope that the misunderstanding can be completely resolved.

"So, what the hell is going on?"

“…… In fact, it was not 200 years at the beginning. ”

When Janis heard this, her expression became a little unnatural: "I originally said that I would go out for a walk and come back after twenty years. As a result, the world is bigger than I thought, and I originally planned to travel the world in 20 years, but I ended up running for more than 80 years.

"I went back to the church country at that time and took some of the teacher's relics. I thought she had forgotten about me, after all, eighty years was a big number for an elf. And she really waited for me for 80 years......"

Hearing this, Ivas understood.

Things were much easier than Ivas had thought.

Janis must have been afraid to come back to see her when she first realized that she had come back sixty years late.

Elves have a sense of time that is almost five to seven times that of humans.

Even at the highest level, this is at least a dozen years of lost contact.

For human beings, it is indeed possible to forget about the hair that has been lost for more than ten years, at least the feelings will become much weaker. The promises and oaths of the year are naturally countless.

But Yannis had no idea that after all these eighty years, Gray was still waiting for her—it wasn't even a dozen years of separation from her friends. It's more like running away from home for more than ten years, and her parents are still looking for her.

This overly heavy emotion scared Yanis away. A vicious cycle ensues...... The longer it drags on, the more afraid it is to come back.

“…… How to say it. ”

Ivus hissed too.

He thought for a moment, "I think you'll have to formally apologize to Miss Grey." ”

"But I'm not fit to stay in the church country anymore."

Janis smiled bitterly and said, "It's fine to come back once in a while, but if I stay too long, I'm worried that I'll go straight to the curtain." Over the past two hundred years, I've become accustomed to living with short-lived species...... Oh, I'm not scolding you. It's just describing races that have a shorter lifespan than elves.

"Can you imagine, Iwas? In the country of religion, it is normal for something to drag on for three or four months. I know a writer who doesn't have much work to do for some personal reasons. In other words, she is equivalent to a full-time writer on the human side.

"She once wrote a book and said she was going to take a break before opening a new one...... Eighteen years have passed since such a break.

"I thought something had happened to her. It just so happened that the Muslim country had recently visited her. In fact, many of her readers thought she was dead or unconscious...... Because both her and her poems are full of death. ”

Hearing this, Eivas suddenly remembered Gloria Blue Rose.

Isn't that the friend Janis said to be her?

But then, Janis's words dispelled the doubts in Ivus's heart: "As a result, I recently came back to take a look and asked her. found that she just couldn't lift her energy. Although his body is as bad as ever, he doesn't have any thoughts of dying.

And it's not that she hasn't written at all these years, but has written a cabinet of essays. But each one has no ending.

"She told me that although she was not in good health. But it shouldn't happen anytime soon...... You should know about the elves' diseases, right? ”

"Arboriculture and Condensation...... Right. Ivus replied softly.

"That's right. She is a patient with coagulism, but she is very active in the treatment and does not want to die just like that. She gets bored every day and wants to do something.

So she taught herself jewelry on her own. He also laughed and joked with me that if one of his arms or legs was completely curtailed, he would cut it out and make it into jewelry for us, and it was all handmade. I told her that if I had the chance, I would come and design it for her.

During this time, she was a little interested in opening a new book, and began to read newspapers from various countries to collect materials, and also saw the news of Ivas. She talked to me about you, saying that she thought you were very handsome, and that the protagonist of the new book might use Ling as a prototype. And you asked me a lot about your deeds. ”

Speaking of this, Janis smiled and patted Ivus on the shoulder, "But I still think you're suitable to be a villain." I proposed to her, you will be the villain, and Sherlock will be the protagonist as a detective...... I don't know if she accepted it. ”

"It doesn't matter if I'm a villain or not."

Ivas smiled: "It's better to say that I think the villain is a little more handsome." ”

In his mind, he sketched the image of a little girl who was always smiling.

Terminally ill but positive and full of life. Just listening to Janis's words, it was as if Ivas saw the sparkling eyes.

Although both writers suffer from coagulation, she is clearly different from Gloria.

After all, in the country, the coverage rate of congularity is still quite large. It is said that the probability of arbosis was greater thousands of years ago, and the blood of the elves has been diluted and deteriorated over the years, and the probability of arbosis has decreased significantly; However, the proportion of congularity has risen.

At a time when everyone is living a slow-paced life, there are not so many conguity diseases. But when the pace of life of the short-lived species gradually accelerated, and all kinds of entertainment and production became numerous, the elves who had nothing to do with them also seemed to be infected and impatient.

Therefore, there are also a few extremists among the elves, who believe that they need to be completely isolated from the short-born species.

Ivas smiled and looked back at Sherlock, "Hey, you said you were going to be the main character." ”

"—whatever."

Sherlock, who walked at the end, chuckled softly and complained: "I just hope she doesn't ignore the rigor of the detective for the sake of the drama of the story." I hardly expect her to understand what logic is, and newspaper reports are not always objective and fair. She just imagined and wrote in front of the newspaper, and it was too easy to lack life experience. ”

"Don't underestimate her too much."

Janis defended her friend: "Gloria is a palace-level writer, a world-famous writer. She wouldn't make such a simple mistake. You're really going to be famous this time, Sherlock—if my offer is accepted by her. ”

"—wait."

Sherlock became serious: "What do you say her name?" What about the full name? ”

"Gloria. Gloria Blue Rose...... The full names of the elves are some with their parents, some with their teachers. She is the group that follows the teacher. ”

Janis said casually.

She quickly realized something: "What's wrong with her?" ”

"She's dead."

Sherlock replied succinctly, "It was suicide." ”

Janis's pupils shrank suddenly.
