> Keep fishing
> How close are we to the Scarlet Devil Mansion?

>It's a short walk. But you aren't close enough to, say, have a shouting conversation with the gate guard.
>There's no bites yet. You get the feeling that you overlooked something.

>You pull up the rod and follow the eastern path around the late, passing by a cottage.
>The path follows along the wall surrounding the mansion. Soon, you come to the wrought iron gates, where Meiling stands. She has added a green cloak to her usual garb to ward off the cold. "Oh, hey there," she says.
>You return her greeting, and ask her about ice fishing. "I don't fish," she says. "Spend enough time standing around doing nothing as it is, you know?"

>You curse at the lack of your Basin to put fish into. But given you also wash your face with that, it's a little relieving as well.
