Xiao Xiao thought for a moment, his gaze sweeping over the things on his desk.
He didn't seem to find anything useful.
Suddenly, his gaze stopped.
What was this?
He reached for a frog lying on the wooden board beside the stairs by his desk.
Big, dead-fish eyes.
A green body.
It really was an ugly-cute little frog.
It was tiny, a keychain.
He had no idea who had left it there.
"You'll do."
Xiao Xiao slipped his hand into his pocket and gently cupped the mushroom person in his palm.
Then he put the frog in his pocket and set the mushroom person on top of it.
"Is this better?"
The mushroom person stamped its feet against the soft, solid surface.
It narrowed its eyes. "Gugu~"
Xiao Xiao smiled. "Then let's go."
The snow was still falling.
It drifted down in a steady flurry.
Xiao Xiao held up a black umbrella.
Before long, a thin layer of white snow had settled over its black canopy.
Its original color was almost impossible to make out.
Xiao Xiao's hand shifted slightly on the handle. The canopy trembled, sending fine flakes sliding off its edge.
"Fei Fei~"
Fei Fei held out a paw to catch the falling snow, its silvery-blue eyes curving into crescents.
It was cool and soft.
The next moment, it melted in its palm.
More snowflakes fell.
Xiao Xiao walked along a road already covered in a thin layer of snow.
The trees on either side were green and white, a beautiful combination.
"Gugu~"
The mushroom person perched on the edge of his pocket, its eyes wide open.
Everything it saw now was so different from what it had seen in the mountains.
When it snowed in the mountains, it was quiet.
It could even hear
