The setting sun resembled a kind old man, generously casting its final glow over the tranquil little town.
Every corner, every house, and every street was bathed in this warm golden radiance, glowing with a charming, magical luster.
The sun sank slowly toward the west, like a giant orange fireball gradually disappearing beneath the horizon.
The sky looked like a canvas splashed with spilled paint, dyed in gradient shades of orange-red from light to dark. Layers of color blended together to form a breathtaking and mesmerizing landscape.
Officer Qin Xiao stood quietly on the bustling street, his deep eyes gazing at the picturesque scenery before him, stirring a deep sense of emotion in his heart.
A gentle breeze brushed against his cheek, stirring a few strands of hair across his forehead.
After a long moment, he slowly turned his head and said softly to Hiroshi Nohara beside him, "Brother Hiroshi, I think we should head back to our lodgings to pack our things today and set off tomorrow."
Qin Xiao's voice was low and gentle, tinged with a hint of unperceived fatigue.
Hiroshi Nohara nodded slightly in agreement.
A faint smile immediately appeared on his honest face as he replied, "You got it, Officer Qin Xiao! You've certainly worked hard today, so you should head back and get some rest early."
His gaze was filled with sincere gratitude and respect.
