I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 727
She remembered that when Li Yan took her to sign the contract, he had walked a long way, but this place was not in Shinjuku District at all, but after turning a corner on the street, she saw the simple Japanese-style house.
The room was quite warm, and her soaked coat was left to dry in the room. Mashiro Shiina, who was only wearing a shirt, was wrapped in a blanket and holding hot tea, regaining a touch of warmth.
"Get your body warm. Even if you are very young, don't be too reckless." Ichihara Yuko wiped Shiina's white hair with a towel and said with a relaxed expression.
"..." Shiina Mashiro was silent.
Ichihara Yuko smiled lightly and said: "You work very hard. You keep trying to remember your precious things. Even if your spirit is torn, you can still maintain it in the end."
"The world has always been wonderful. Even if there are weird existences, as long as you pass by the other person, the other person will disappear in an instant and it will no longer be relevant. The world will be ordinary. People are the most peculiar creatures in this world. Living in the world, you don’t just belong to yourself. There is no single living creature in the world. Just like what Li Yan finally wrote in "Persistence", persistence is born for hope and the emotion of fighting for hope, even if it is just a trace. , there are also people who are willing to move forward. Everyone will be connected to someone, whether other people's experiences, or whether they are experienced with you, will become the source of your persistence. No one is free, so...life is interesting , is what is sad and what cannot be given up..."
Ichihara Yuko's words were like words that struck a chord in Shiina Mashiro's heart.
Life is happy because you meet precious people.
"Landlord...how do I get Holmes back?" Shiina Mashiro raised her head and looked at her and asked.
Ichihara Yuko smiled, took back the towel, sat on her soft cushion, turned her head and looked at the confusing rain scene in the courtyard, and said: "Wishes need to be paid. The current agent also said so, there is no such thing in the world. Free stuff. To tell you the truth, I have been in this industry for a long time, and I know this truth deeply. The reason why I am here now is because of the price of my wish... That current person looks good Very good, I am willing to tell you some final information."
Immediately, her eyes were a bit deep and gloomy, staring at Shiina Mashiro, and asked: "The price may not be equal, but it will definitely be uncomfortable. Even if you use your life as a mortgage, you may not be able to shake this A force, but the hope in exchange is definitely very low. I probably only have one hope for you, so are you willing to take a gamble?"
"yes."
Shiina Mashiro nodded and said.
Ichihara Yuko was slightly dumbfounded and looked at Shiina Mashiro.
She originally thought that Shiina Mashiro would hesitate for a moment, which would be a bit hesitant for most people. It was not a fault, but human nature. But this girl clearly knew what price she had to pay, but her expression remained unchanged.
Immediately, Yuko Ichihara laughed and said happily: "...Sure enough, you are the resident introduced by Li Jun. The residents I accept are all such guys, so my life will continue to be interesting."
"...So, you and them all come back, Li Yan, my favorite friend...bring it back too, please. In this world, only you can do things that witches, angels and demons can't do." done."
"...I will not let Holmes disappear."
Shiina Mashiro was silent for a while, and then said the words that she had been thinking about.
Even Eiriri forgot in the end, Kasumi Shiko also forgot, and everyone forgot, she would let Eiriri and the others still remember this one person who had saved many people but could not be saved by others.
Ichihara Yuko looked at her face quietly, her expression gradually becoming a little sad.
"So, it's almost time for you to wake up, Miss Shiina."
This faint woman said to Mashiro Shiina, who was sitting opposite.
For a moment, it was like waking up from a dream.
"!?"
Mashiro Shiina seemed to hear a bell ringing, and suddenly opened her eyes. She woke up from her dream and found that she was lying on the table and fell asleep for some reason.
She got up and realized that she was still in this room, but it was empty.
The tea on the table has gone cold. It was still warm just now, but there is an extra item on the table, a laptop.
Shiina Mashiro hesitated for a while. She didn't understand what happened just now, but she still stretched out her hand, typed on the keyboard, and searched for the address.
【Sanqishan Island】.
One location is on an uninhabited island off the coast of Tokyo Bay.
There are hundreds of small islands with only forests and no residents on the west side of Japan. One of them, called [Sanqishan Island], has been developed as a tourist destination. However, now the island is caught in heavy rain and there is no one there. Online bookings are also not accepted.
However, what was even more frightening was that the time was already 3:00 in the afternoon, and she had slept for more than three hours without realizing it.
After Shiina Mashiro understood the location, she stood up and prepared to go out.
But before going out, she turned back silently. For some unknown reason, she still bowed slightly to the deserted house and turned around to leave.
The scene turned, and in the empty house, Yuko Ichihara was sitting in that seat again, as if she had never left, sipping the bottle of soju.
"There are no accidents in the world, only necessity..."
"I have calculated that Li Yan will be lonely all his life. I can only calculate up to this point. Whether it will turn around later...it depends on whether everyone in Yunyun is willing to find him back..."
"Shiina, this is the final key that my agent and I worked out together. It is already the final compromise. Sorry, Shiina, a life cannot be reborn simply, and the mission can be completed simply..."
Shiina Mashiro fainted on the street and was sent in by her.
It was also the time when Shiina Mashiro fell into a coma, which was already destined. Just like in the plot of the novel, Sherlock Holmes returns to the stage. Only "Watson" can find the person who can find Sherlock Holmes...
※※※
In the evening, the pier on the other side of Sanqishan Island.
The fishing villages that rely on the seaside are all closed today, and the boatmen in the fishing villages who rely on island tourism to make profits are also idle, waiting for this long heavy rain to completely stop.
However, in the rest house, near dusk, a girl came here and asked to go to the island no matter what.
"To save someone who was put there."
The girl who lowered her head and refused to leave gave such a reason when a group of boatmen tried to dissuade her.
No matter how much the boatman refused or even yelled at her, this petite blond girl shrank her body slightly and refused to leave.
A group of boatmen were completely at their wits end. It would have been more appropriate to call the police and have the police take her away. However, they always felt that this girl was pitiful. When they said they wanted to save people, they were sure that there was no one on the island who was qualified. However, this mixed-race girl was treated like this. Persistence, they were also a little confused. Could it be that tourists really disappeared on that island?
It took a full two hours and it became a deadlock.
A middle-aged boatman kept staring at this entangled female high school student and noticed that the longer the time passed, the more her body was shaking.
"...Pretty girls have great advantages."
A middle-aged boatman looked at her who lowered her head and said nothing, sighed and said.
It seems that this is a joke, but it is the truth. This female high school student is indeed very beautiful, with snow-white cheeks, beautiful facial features, and blond hair of white Europeans, but also has the delicacy and softness of oriental beauties. God seems to be so blessed by her.
"It seems that you are not lying. I will take you to the island. Anyway, rescuing people is the most important thing. You are so nervous that I'm afraid you won't be able to relax." The tanned captain looked at her and said.
"!" Shiina Mashiro suddenly raised his head and looked at the captain in shock.
"Are you crazy? Don't you know how stormy it is outside?"
"I know, but this girl reminds me of the unfulfilled daughter in my family. She is still so stubborn. Don't worry, everyone. My crew and I will drive carefully. When we were fishing in the past, such wind and waves were very common. What does it matter?"
"...Yes, you are the best boatman in the village."
"but……"
