In Chen Xiao's mind, a scene begins to form.
He finds himself within the scene, holding a book from Si Ying's desk, with a thoughtful expression as he arrives at No. 506 Swallow Lane.
Pushing open the already abandoned gate of No. 506, he proceeds to the backyard.
In the backyard, he encounters a woman.
The woman has long hair down to her waist, wearing a plain white dress decorated with lotuses.
Seemingly aware someone has arrived, the woman turns around and smiles: "Hello, Chen Xiao."
Chen Xiao: "Hello, Si Ying."
The woman glances at the book in Chen Xiao's hand, and, smiling, asks: "Can you understand the book in your hand?"
Chen Xiao also looks at the book he's holding and replies: "I haven't finished it, but I've heard of it."
"Do you know who the murderer is?"
Chen Xiao nods: "All the evidence points to a lunatic."
"Then why did it lead to Only the River Flows?"
