After leaving the Lavender Bar, Guangyou and Xiao Ai planned to go to Dr. Ali's house. There were still tents and other things, so there was no need to waste them.

Xiao Ai who was walking on the road was not asking questions about Numabuchi Kiichiro, but instead asked some very common questions.

"Have you seen fireflies?"

Guangyou didn't think too much and shook his head: "No, so I'm actually quite curious."

Fireflies are not so easy to see in the steel forest. Many people who have lived in the city for their whole life may only see them on TV or the Internet.

After setting up a tent at Dr. Ali's house, making some simple lunches and putting them in his backpack, Guangyou carried a big bag and followed Xiao Ai out.

Before going out, Guangyou paused at the door, then quickly ran to the basement and picked up a bag.

"Can't miss this opportunity to show off."

Guangyou glanced at the guy behind him who was as tall as Conan, and laughed to himself, "Hey, I'm still a 'artistic young man' who loves to show off."

After mocking himself, Guangyou went upstairs to meet Xiaoai.

There is no wild firefly habitat near Tokyo, so they have to take a Shinkansen to a more remote place.

An hour later, the Shinkansen arrived at the station.

This station is very small. A few houses have been added with a station sign, and a beverage vending machine that seems to be the only piece of modern technology to make up the station.

There are very few people coming and going, most of them are elderly people.

There are only two staff at the station, and they still adopt the old method of manual ticket sales and manual ticket checking.

There are rarely any expressions of complaint on the faces of the staff. In their opinion, this place is far away from the hustle and bustle of the city and the temptation of money.

Most of them live here in a peaceful and peaceful place. They go to have a drink after work and live a very comfortable life.

After leaving the platform, there is a green mountain in front of us, with continuous ups and downs. At a glance, there are no modern buildings in sight.

It is estimated that there is a village behind a certain mountain with not many people and a quite harmonious atmosphere, but this is not the current goal.

"Let's go, we'd better find a creek."

Guangyou's goal is very clear. Most fireflies live near water or in humid environments.

At the same time, the surrounding environmental factors have a huge impact on the growth of fireflies.

Whether it's light pollution, poor water quality, or soil treated with pesticides, they all have very high requirements, just like a pampered princess.

Humidity, temperature, and pollution levels, it is precisely because of these almost harsh conditions that wild fireflies are hard to find in cities.

There was no map in the forest, so the two of them had to rely on their own efforts to find the creek.

Fortunately, it's not a place like a tropical jungle where people don't go. There's still a certain distance between trees, so it's not difficult to walk.

The safety of the forest should still be guaranteed. After walking for a while, Guangyou didn't find a warning sign.

This forest is near the station. If there are large wild animals, there should be a sign or a fence directly around it.

The chirping of birds sounded in their ears from time to time, and the quiet atmosphere made Guangyou and Xiao Ai feel much calmer.

Fireflies are mostly active at night, and the sun is still high in the blue sky, so there is plenty of time and there is no rush.

Taking a leisurely walk in the forest, Guangyou's eyes looked around.

There were not so many tools in ancient times, but the ancients were still able to obtain delicious things, thanks to the growth laws of nature.

Plants are both positive and hydrotropic.

This is a characteristic developed by animals and plants in nature in order to survive.

Just like sunflowers always blooming toward the sun, it is quite practical.

While walking, Guangyou stopped, then changed direction, pulling Xiao Ai to continue walking forward.

Just now, he had roughly confirmed the direction from the exposed roots of a large tree.

"I seemed to hear the flow of the creek."

Xiao Ai suddenly closed her eyes, as if carefully confirming whether she heard correctly.

"It doesn't seem like it, I heard it too."

The sound of flowing water could already be heard in Guangyou's ears. Although it was very small, it was very clear in this quiet forest.

Following the source of the sound, a small stream appeared in front of them.

It seems that God is helping them. There is a large space on both sides of the creek, which can be used for setting up tents.

Guangyou put down the big backpack behind him and took out the tent.

After walking for a while, he found no sign of human activity in this forest. Someone might have walked through it, but no one lived here.

The air was fresh, and no pollutants such as garbage were found. With just a glance at the stream, Guangyou could see the stones at the bottom of the stream.

It hasn't rained recently, and the environment is very good for fireflies to come out and be active.

Xiao Ai wasn't watching either. After Guangyou was busy taking the tent out of the bag, she also stepped forward to help hold up the frame of the tent.

The tent took about five minutes to set up.

After setting up the tent, Guangyou walked to the creek. The water level was not high, so he was not worried that the tent would be flooded with water at night.

"There are fish here."

Xiao Ai took off her shoes, revealing a pair of delicate jade feet that were as beautiful as snow and frost. She rolled up her trousers, exposing her calves, and sat on the edge of the stream.

Those delicate and white feet were soaked in the cool and clear stream water, and there were some ripples on the water.

Occasionally a small fish would pop out of the cracks in the rocks at the bottom of the stream, only to disappear again in the blink of an eye.

Guangyou didn't do this. Although he was very careful on weekdays and his feet didn't smell much, if his feet smelled after sweating, it would be a big sin to put them into the stream.

He didn't want the creek to taste like "Lao Tan Pickled Cabbage" because of his feet.

"It's still a long time until evening."

Xiao Ai put her hands back, looked up at the sky, then turned her head to look at Guang You, and asked curiously, "By the way, I forgot to ask you who that woman is?"

"who?"

Guangyou didn't react at first, but under Xiao Ai's eyes he reacted instantly, "You can tell the truth."

"Her current name is Asai Narumi, or Aso Minoru, but these are both pseudonyms. She doesn't want to say her original name. Speaking of which, she is also a poor person..."

Guangyou told Xiao Ai everything about Cheng Shi from beginning to end without hiding anything.

"What I said is what I know. As for whether it is true, only she knows."

At this point, Guangyou paused for a moment, and then added, "The hurt he received is real. Maybe the details are a little concealed, but whatever, sometimes knowing so clearly is not a good thing. As long as you know

As long as she won’t harm me.”

Xiao Ai nodded lightly: "Then are you hiding anything from me?"

"Yes, I have."

Guangyou nodded honestly. Anyway, what he was hiding was not something very important.

"What is it?"

Xiao Ai suddenly became curious. She pricked up her ears and moved closer to Guang You, for fear of missing something important.
