The big cities were always brightly lit up at night.

In reality, somewhere in an urban area, near a commercial area full of high-rise buildings, there was a small street hidden among a group of old and damaged buildings.

This street was a food street known to all the old residents nearby. It opened at 4 in the afternoon and closed in the early morning. There were various shops on the left and right sides selling grilled fish, chicken stew, crayfish, etc.

At this time, it wasn't yet seven o'clock in the evening. The early autumn night had completely arrived. The owner of a barbecue store on his street wore a long-sleeved undershirt under his apron and stood by a charcoal grill, fanning the fire. Next to him was a takeaway boy waiting to get the order.

A young man stood at the end of the street. He casually wore a light blue denim jacket without any decorations and looked like a star in the night. Xiao Li looked up at the street sign and then double-checked the address on his phone. He found that he hadn't gone to the wrong place.

It happened when he was in Styland. On the day he visited Wang Huai at night, they had exchanged phone numbers for reality. The day after returning to reality, Wang Huai contacted him as scheduled with a time and address.

Xiao Li just hadn't expected to meet Wang Huai in such a place.

He walked past the street signs shoulder to shoulder with pedestrians on the street. The customers were mostly those who lived nearby. Finally, Xiao Li found the person he was looking for in front of a crayfish stall.

Wang Huai wore very simple clothes. He didn't wear the suit from the instance to such a place. Instead, he wore a black sweater and held a menu in his hand, writing on the menu with a pencil. He looked like a graduate student.

He didn't even choose to sit in the private room inside the store. He casually sat at an open-air table. There were several trash cans nearby while paper towels and leftover food were randomly thrown on the ground.

Xiao Li walked over and sat opposite of Wang Huai. Wang Huai looked up and smiled politely. "You're here?"

He couldn't be considered to have a close relationship with Xiao Li. This was the first time they had met in reality but there was no sense of awkwardness. Wang Huai placed the menu in front of Xiao Li and said, "Order whatever you want. It is my treat."

The menu had been marked. There was already 1.5 kilograms of crayfish, some snacks and two bottles of beer.

Xiao Li wasn't polite. He added some things and a bottle of water.

Wang Huai wondered, "You aren't drinking."

"I don't drink."

Wang Huai had a look of regret as he called over the boss and handed her the menu.

"Okay, I'll bring it right away." The female boss wrote down their table number and hurried into the back kitchen.

After she left, Wang Huai couldn't hide the curiosity in his eyes, "Sherlock, you are younger than I thought. Are you in school?"

Xiao Li wasn't willing to discuss the issue. He always felt that he was being subtly discriminated against because of his age. He got straight to the point. "You previously said that you wanted to discuss things in reality with me."

Wang Huai laughed. "Have you always been so direct?"

Xiao Li looked at him quietly.

Wang Huai sighed. "You are really a little friend."

Xiao Li punctured the package of the disposable tableware with chopsticks. Wang Huai swallowed back the last word and spoke calmly. "Are you sure you don't want to talk about it after eating? I'm afraid you won't be able to eat when you hear it."
