Chapter 1
On a brown recliner near the fireplace, a man's legs are covered with a blanket, with hot coffee in his hand, enjoying his relaxing time after dinner.
"Arthur, here is today's newspaper and your letter." Mrs. Dawson threw all the contents of the mailbox outside the door to the man on the recliner. Her loud voice and her hot-tempered personality always made people need to get used to it.Especially for someone like Arthur who is used to living a slow life.
Arthur took the pure white envelope, opened it with his hands, and found a piece of gold-gilded paper with strange contents inside, which can be called an invitation letter tentatively.
"Dear Arthur, I and the scenery here want to meet you." The signature is: I miss you Gray Island very much ^_^.
As a freelance photographer, it is normal for Arthur to travel around to collect scenery, but he is sure that no friends he knows live in Gray Island.But when he saw the round-trip ticket in the envelope, he felt that this was not like a common prank.
In fact, Arthur wanted to go there when he saw a tourist advertisement about Grey Island in the newspaper two months ago. The scenery there was charming and mysterious, and he was deeply attracted by just two aerial promotional photos.But at that time, he had a batch of photos that needed to be processed urgently, so he had to postpone the trip to Grey Island, and now this invitation letter with round-trip ferry tickets was exactly what he wanted.Therefore, after checking the authenticity of the ticket, he dragged his suitcase and embarked on a journey to Grey Island the next day.
At twilight, on the deck of the "Kazama", a sexy lady held a wine glass and took a picture of the man watching the sunset alone from behind.
"Hey, handsome guy, would you like to have a drink?" The curly hair hanging down to her waist, with a vague fragrance, added a bit of charm to her.The man in front of him turned around, and before he could speak, the woman's expression changed 180 degrees in an instant, "Why are you? Goodbye! I didn't say anything just now." After speaking, she wanted to leave.
"Wait, Aunt Eve, does my uncle know you're here?" Arthur looked at her with a smile.
When Eve heard this, she almost couldn't stand on her newly bought high heels. She sighed in her heart that she was unlucky, and asked through gritted teeth, "Arthur, what do you want to know this time?"
"Excuse me, Auntie, does Aunt Eve know Gray Island?"
Eve took a sip of her wine, "Actually, I don't know the secret of Gray Island. I only know that it is called an artist's paradise. Although the scenery on the island is beautiful, it is not uncommon in the world. But it is the only one widely known in the industry. I highly recommend it. I actually came here this time to find design inspiration for the new season’s clothing.”
After listening to Eve's explanation, Arthur became more curious about Gray Island.He repeatedly looked at the invitation letter in the envelope, and tried all the simple methods such as tearing apart the words, hiding the head and soaking it in water, but unfortunately, as if to tell him that this was an ordinary invitation letter, all his methods failed.
At this time, the "Kazama" broadcast sounded, "Dear passengers, we will arrive at Grey Island tomorrow morning, please take your belongings and pay attention to the safety of the journey..."
Arthur was lying on the bed, not thinking about the invitation letter for the time being. If the owner who sent the letter never showed up, he would just come out to collect the news. As for the secrets of Grey Island, anyway, he will go to the island tomorrow, and he will explore it by himself. Two is not impossible.They come, the security.Thinking of this, he gradually fell asleep.
