Chapter 454 Murphy's Law

At 12:30 noon, Yokohama, which had been clear and hot in the morning, suddenly became cold. Thick dark clouds blocked the bright sunshine, and the blue sea also darkened.

"This weather, isn't it?"

In the private room, Beichuan Che's movement of picking up the food in his hands stagnated slightly. Then, he put down the chopsticks in his hands, turned his head, and looked outside through the glass on the second floor.

The reaction of the pedestrians on the street was very similar to his. They all raised their heads and looked at the sky that had darkened inexplicably with some surprise.

Time seems to freeze at this moment.

But soon, the pedestrians who looked up at the sky withdrew their gaze.

After all, at the end of the day, it was just a sudden cloudy day, no big deal.

As a result, the only sound left in the room was the slight sound of the air conditioner fan blades operating.

"No what?"

Bai Yuan Shiwei tightened the jacket she was wearing and continued her conversation.

Because of the coat, the coldness she felt before was somewhat reduced, but it was still inevitable that some of it remained.

The most important thing is that she has already called the waiter, who also followed her request and raised the air conditioning temperature in the private room by another degree. However, after actually adjusting it, the remaining cold feeling showed no sign of disappearing.

"rain."

After Kitagawa Che took one last look at the street scene outside the window, he withdrew his gaze outside.

He felt that his luck should not be so good.

"how can that be possible."

Baiyuan Shizhi knew it very well.

rain?

All she wants is rain.

If it doesn't rain, what will her next plan be?

There was only one thing that was beyond her expectation. Her current physical condition seemed not to be good.

First, the cold feeling still existed. Furthermore, her body felt a little groggy, her head seemed not as clear as before, and even an inexplicable feeling of fatigue came up.

Theoretically speaking, she shouldn't feel sleepy at this moment. Last night, she rarely went to bed early.

"What's your schedule for the afternoon?"

After hearing Baiyuan Shiori's words, Kitagawa Che also temporarily suppressed the hesitation in his heart and changed the topic.

"Go to an old bookstore."

Bai Yuan Shizhi raised his eyebrows and said this with a mysterious face.

In a sense, that bookstore was the beginning of her career as an author.

If that kind old lady hadn't repeatedly recommended that novel, then maybe she wouldn't have embarked on the path she is on now.

"You mean quite old?" Kitagawa Che paused, "I mean, has it been decades?"

The longer he spends time with Bai Yuan Shizhi, the more he will master the tricks of getting along with this girl.

To be honest, the places that Bai Yuan Shiori can give the five words "quite old" have basically existed for more than twenty years. If you add a few generations together, you can almost say that he is not. The unfamiliar 'hundred-year-old store' signboard.

"To be precise, this bookstore has a history of fifty years." Baiyuan Shizhi raised his smooth chin, forced a smile, cheered up, and continued to talk about what he had not finished. , “From the 1960s until now.

“During this period, it was renovated about four times.

“But the overall layout of the bookstore and the placement of those old objects have not changed.

"Anyway, if you go to this place once, Ah Che, you will feel emotional from the bottom of your heart. This bookstore can really give people a sense of tranquility and comfort."

At least that's how it was for her.

"Looking at the ray of sunlight shining into the bookstore and shining on the old books, do you feel like you are in another world?"

Kitagawa Che could probably get Baiyuan Shizhi's thoughts. After thinking about the words for a while, he came up with such an inferred sentence.

"...!"

After the words fell, Bai Yuan Shizhi's eyes suddenly lit up.

She really didn't expect that this steely straight man could suddenly get the scene she had experienced.

The heaviness that transcended time and space made her inexplicably fascinated.

"Looks like I was right."

Kitagawa Che put down his chopsticks, picked up the tea cup, and took a sip of wheat tea.

He had also experienced such a scene before time travel, but at that time, when he saw the old bookstore, he felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart that things were different. The bookstore is still there, and the layout and decoration style have not changed. The boss's appearance has not even changed much, except that his black hair has turned into gray hair, but he is no longer the ivory tower he was before. student.

As luck would have it, the boss recognized him and started chatting with him out of surprise.

Just like that, on that summer day off, he spent an entire afternoon in that used bookstore.

To this day, he still remembers that scene.

"Yes."

Baiyuan Shizhi nodded slightly, picked up the chopsticks, and took a piece of grilled eel for Kitagawa Che.

"Thank you."

Beichuan Che thanked him, but his eyes fell outside the window involuntarily again.

He was still a little uneasy, feeling that the rain might really fall.

Moreover, if nothing else happens, this rain will be a heavy rain.

After all, facts always prove that the less you want something to happen, the greater the probability of it happening.

However, he couldn't clearly hear the sounds outside through the soundproof glass in the restaurant, which had a very good soundproofing effect.

“This restaurant is quite famous for its grilled eel. Every time it’s time to order, people rush to order it. It’s a first-come, first-served basis.”

As Bai Yuan Shizhi spoke, she followed Kitagawa Che's gaze and looked out the window.

Her beautiful eyes reflected the scenery outside the window at this moment.

One drop, two drops, three drops, several drops of rain fall from the sky.

Soon, dense raindrops formed in a series, and the originally dry ground became moistened at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the color also changed from light to dark.

Although the room was quiet, the sound of rain seemed to ring in her ears.

"It's raining."

Sure enough, this is really just what you are afraid of.

Kitagawa Che sighed, turned around, and looked at Baiyuan Shizhi's side face.

next second.

He frowned abruptly.

Bai Yuan Shizhi's state at the moment seemed not to be right. He hadn't noticed it just now, but now he looked carefully and found that the girl was in quite bad condition and looked a little depressed.

Recall that she mentioned more than once that she was a little cold.

A possibility rushed up immediately.

She most likely had a cold, or even a slight fever.

"Shiori."

Beichuan Che called her name.

"Ok?"

Baiyuan Shizhi turned his head subconsciously.

The next moment, a warm hand gently pressed against her forehead.

Feeling the obviously higher temperature in his hands, Kitagawa Che's expression couldn't help but become heavy.

It happened to be this time.

Boom!

As if responding to his thoughts.

A thick electric snake penetrated the dark clouds, even brightening the dark sky.

The next moment, the sound of rolling thunder echoed through the sky.

The rain is getting heavier.

　2/2

　　I saw some of the comments, and I'm really sorry that I didn't give you a good reading experience.

　　Writing is a continuous process. For other authors, a million words may be just the beginning, but for romance novels, especially pure Japanese romance novels, when ZZ and other content are not involved, Million Words is already nearing the end, so there is indeed a situation where inspiration runs out, but anyway, this is indeed my problem, Private Marseille.

　　After this plot is over, there is only one small plot left in the main plot of the book, and then it can officially come to an end. The rest are just a few articles I want to write about for the next day.

　　Well, see you tomorrow~
