The door lock emitted a faint noise, and the crack by the door gradually widened, revealing the figure standing behind it.
A dull, moist wood scent drifted from behind the door, a smell that persisted after the rainy season, one Lu Li had grown accustomed to and couldn't detect. After being away for several days, these once familiar scents reemerged.
Lu Li stepped into the Detective Agency, the desolate living room and bedroom empty, Anna's figure nowhere to be seen.
However, as Lu Li approached the kitchen door, a figure just happened to walk out of the kitchen.
The ethereal figure of Anna, with a toothbrush in her mouth, face full of white foam, her clear eyes staring blankly.
"You're back!"
After zoning out for quite a while, Anna suddenly snapped back to reality and cheered, throwing herself at Lu Li.
She didn't seem angry about Lu Li breaking their appointment, but still complained, "You said you'd be back tomorrow morning."
