After the meal, Ji Qingyue went back to his room to take an umbrella, planning to go out for a stroll, when he went out with an umbrella, he happened to meet Gu Minghe who also came over with an umbrella.

He locked the door and turned to Gu Minghe, glanced at him, and said, "Do you want to go outside together?"

"Yeah." Gu Minghe's mood was light and lukewarm, but he agreed quickly.

When he walked downstairs, Ji Qingyue saw that the rain was still falling. It was a little heavier than the rain just now. The fine and continuous raindrops slanted on the turquoise stone steps at the door, splashing beautiful water splashes. The rain half-obscured the shop made of bluestone opposite, which made Ji Qingyue suddenly feel a sense of familiarity.

In the next second, he remembered the picture he saw before, the blue street filled with rain and fog.

He opened a transparent umbrella at the door, stepped down the uneven steps with puddles, and stood on the street paved with flat bluestone slabs.

Walking to the arched bridge in the middle of the deserted street, Ji Qingyue found that the picture in the picture was taken exactly where he was standing, and the hotel where he stayed was also included in the picture.

The rooms inside the hotel are all paved with wooden boards, and it can't be seen from the inside that they are all blue stones outside.

"What are you looking at?" Gu Minghe, who was also wearing the hotel's transparent umbrella, stood beside him, followed his line of sight and didn't see anything eye-catching, so he asked softly in a cold voice.

Ji Qingyue looked away, and Gu Minghe, who probably knew nothing about Yu Guangli, smiled: "Fish tank."

Gu Minghe was puzzled: "What fish tank?"

"Do you think this place looks like a blue fish tank?" Ji Qingyue looked at him sideways, observing his expression.

Gu Minghe was still puzzled, and when he looked down and saw the goldfish swimming in the river under the bridge, he replied: "Because the river below has goldfish?"

"Well, probably." His character probably called this place "cyan fish tank" for this reason.

Two-thirds of the streets here are occupied by the river in the middle of the street. On both sides of the river are not-so-wide trails, and there are many arched or flat stone bridges that are wide or narrow.

Ji Qingyue walked along the bridge to the other side of the street. When he turned around and looked forward and backward, he couldn't see a few people, so he chose a place with a lot of people in front and walked over, but everyone he met was ordinary, like nothing at all. A meaningless npc, not even as suspicious as the owner of the hotel and a few waiters.

Ji Qingyue walked two streets and didn't see many people. He already felt that he couldn't find any clues when he came out this time. He stopped looking around, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and flicked it with his head down.

It seems that he came here this time to travel. He heard that Gu Minghe, his senior senior, wanted to travel during the holidays, so he recommended this place to Gu Minghe, but Gu Minghe might not necessarily come. Now that they arrived in this small town on the same day, it probably couldn't be a coincidence. The character he played must have planned something, but he couldn't find it in the information on the phone.

How the hell did he open that hidden memo before?

He clicked on the call log and recalled where he pressed it before, but he couldn't remember it at all. He didn't even remember how many times he pressed it, but if he could open it by chance, the password should be very simple...

"Look at the road." Gu Minghe, who had been following him silently, suddenly spoke out. Before Ji Qingyue could react, his arm was pulled and he fell sideways into Gu Minghe's arms.

"Thank you." Only then did Ji Qingyue notice that he was walking erratically, and he would probably fall headlong into the grass in front of him if he went any further.

He put the screen of the mobile phone back into his pocket, and held the umbrella that lost his balance and fell off when he was pulled just now. He didn't hold the umbrella straight, and he didn't get up from Gu Minghe's arms.

"Student?" Gu Minghe seemed to be urging.

Ji Qingyue looked up at him, Gu Minghe looked at him with long eyelashes hanging down, his mouth was urging, but his expression and eyes were not so cold, much gentler than before.

He didn't forget that the name of Gu Minghe in the memo was cold and cunning, and the word cunning made him feel that Gu Minghe was always acting to trick him.

What about him?Just count.

"I feel like I've sprained my ankle." Ji Qingyue said.

Gu Minghe was obviously stunned for a moment, and looked down at his feet: "I don't think I'll sprain your feet with this one pull."

"So you don't believe it?" Ji Qingyue turned around in his arms and changed into a comfortable position, "Do you think I'm lying to you?"

Gu Minghe seemed to want to say that he didn't believe it, but after hesitating for a while, he changed his mind: "Then what do you want me to do? Carry you back?"

Ji Qingyue climbed along the pole: "Thank you senior."

He stayed with Gu Minghe for a long time, he didn't learn other things, but he learned a little bit of shamelessness.

Gu Minghe was choked by his words, opened his mouth and didn't say anything, just handed him the umbrella: "Stand up first, I'll carry you back."

Ji Qingyue thought about what he saw on the phone before that Gu Minghe seemed to be in poor health, so he said with concern: "If the senior is not in good health, I can go back by myself."

"Then you go back by yourself?" Gu Minghe's tone was not warm.

"..."

"I can't go back."

Gu Minghe: "Then don't talk too much."

Ji Qingyue put away his umbrella, not sure whether his poor health was real or fake, after thinking about it, he gave a second solution: "It's okay for the senior to help me go back."

"Carry you on your back."

Back in front of the hotel, Ji Qingyue touched Gu Minghe's shoulder and said softly, "Senior, you can put me down now."

Gu Minghe didn't seem to be in poor health during the journey. He didn't blush, breathe or even sweat after walking so far with him on his back. The bad health is probably fake.But since he knew about it, there was no need for Gu Minghe to carry him to the second floor, since he didn't really sprain his ankle.

"Don't move around," Gu Minghe didn't put him down, "send you back to the room."

"Oh." Ji Qingyue didn't insist, and tried to put the umbrella away after entering the hotel.

The hotel owner was sitting at the table eating melon seeds, and when he looked up, he saw them get up and come over: "What's the matter? Are you injured?"

"Well, I accidentally sprained my ankle." Ji Qingyue replied while lying on Gu Minghe's back.

"Is it serious? I don't have any medicine. Why don't you go to the hospital?"

Ji Qingyue was startled, and turned his head to look at Gu Minghe. Gu Minghe didn't seem to believe that he sprained his ankle at all. He didn't ask him whether it was serious or whether he needed to go to the hospital. His first reaction was Is to carry him back...

It was because of the attitude shown before that he wanted to make up for him that he pretended to believe his lies and cooperated with him in the performance.He wouldn't have never seen Gu Minghe's true emotions from the beginning to now.

"No, it's not serious, thank you." Ji Qingyue smiled and dealt with the hotel owner.

-

After dark, Ji Qingyue sat alone on the bed in his room, stared at the overhead light for a while, then turned on his phone and found news about the town.

The town is quite famous. People in the town like to raise goldfish very much, and every family will even raise a few goldfish at home. The hotel in the town will ask the guest to agree to put a goldfish in the room when the guest checks in. The hotel's People will be in charge of feeding, but the guests don't have to worry about it. The domestic goldfish is probably a feature of the town, and it is probably because of this feature that he chose this place for his role.

But what exactly is he trying to bring Gu Minghe here?In order to show off to Gu Minghe later, did he let Gu Minghe jump into the fish tank he prepared for Gu Minghe?

Without thinking too much, he clicked into the call history to try the password to hide the memo. He used his own birthday and changed it to Gu Minghe's, and then clicked randomly for more than ten minutes, but nothing came out.

In the end, he turned off his cell phone, intending to find a reason to find Gu Minghe next door, but before he thought of the reason, the overhead light went out first.

Ji Qingyue subconsciously pressed the phone on, the white light of the phone screen was shining on his face, and he was a little speechless.

What's the matter with this hotel? Why is there a power outage at night? It's been fine all day today.

He turned on the flashlight and planned to go down and ask the boss for some candles. If the hotel had such frequent power outages before, they should have prepared candles.

But there is no need to think about his reasons, Gu Minghe might call him soon, even if Gu Minghe doesn't call, he can still send candles to Gu Minghe.

The hotel owner was sitting on the first floor listening to the tape recorder, with a candle burning on the table in front of him.

"Boss, can I have some candles?" He walked over and asked.

"Okay, how many candles do you want?" The boss stood up, went behind the counter and grabbed a handful of candles.Ji Qingyue looked at the six candles, "Four, it should be enough."

"Row."

Ji Qingyue took four candles, watched the boss put the remaining two back, and asked, "Boss, why is there a power outage here at night?"

"Huh?" The boss looked at him with some doubts, and then seemed to react, "Oh, I don't know, because it's raining."

Ji Qingyue saw that his expression was wrong: "Really?"

"Really, what did I lie to you for?"

Ji Qingyue frowned, stared at him without speaking.

The hotel owner seemed a little uncomfortable when he looked at him, "Qingyue, don't look at uncle like that, it's weird, didn't you tell me to pull the switch at night? You said you have something to do Let me pull the switch at night, and if someone asks me, tell him that it’s raining, so what I just said didn’t reveal the truth, right?”

"I asked you to pull the switch?" Ji Qingyue's eyebrows twitched, "I didn't say what's wrong? Are you really messing around with me?"

"I'm your uncle, what kind of nonsense is this? I haven't had any guests these two days. You didn't tell me about your business, so you said it was very important to keep it secret. I don't know why it's important for you to pull the switch at night. Anyway, I watched you grow up, and you are not the kind of person who would steal things from others. I am quite relieved of you. If you don’t want to, I didn’t ask too much. Your ankle is not sprained. What's the matter? If it hurts, go to the hospital."

"It's okay, then I'll go back first." Ji Qingyue turned around.

"Okay, then will my electric switch be pulled down tomorrow night?"

Ji Qingyue stopped walking back, and looked back at the uncle who suddenly appeared: "Pull."

How could he get along with Gu Minghe who just came out of the darkness without pulling the switch? He still has 20.00% favorability to mention.

Seeing the lighter on the table, he walked over and took it in his hand, not polite at all: "Give it to me first."

He didn't go back to his room, he lit a candle and knocked on Gu Minghe's door: "Senior, are you asleep? I'll give you two candles."

The door was opened, Gu Minghe looked down at the lit candle in his hand.

"Will the senior not let me in?"

The light of the candle in his hand was still reflected on Gu Minghe's face, Gu Minghe still pretended to be cool and cold, and he also looked cold in the warm light.

Gu Minghe turned sideways to let him in.

Ji Qingyue closed the door casually, then quietly locked it behind his back, and pretended to accidentally extinguish the candle.

The room was suddenly plunged into darkness, and he could not see his fingers in front of him. Ji Qingyue raised his hand and tentatively stretched forward. As soon as he touched Gu Minghe in front of him, he was directly pressed against the door panel, and he breathed warm breath on his neck.

"Student, did you come here on purpose?" The hoarse voice was teasing.

"Well, from Throwing a Net."
