Adventurer of the Elf World

"Sister, please help me divide it. I'm leaving first." Xiu casually said and was about to turn around and leave, but at this time the young lady called him.

"Hey! Wait a minute."

The young lady walked around the front desk and pulled Xiu away, saying with some dissatisfaction: "You asked me when I would get off work today just for this~"

Xiu rolled his eyes and glanced at the box of things. He reacted almost instantly and changed his words: "I wanted to go upstairs to change clothes first, but since you asked, I'll just say it directly. Do you want to have dinner together?"

He emphasized again: "I'll treat."

The young lady was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and agreed with a smile.

"Okay~"

But just as the young lady agreed, a staff member walked in at the door and asked: "Customer, where do you want to put your goods?"

"My goods?" Xiu looked at the boxes of fruit. The things were here!

But he quickly reacted and asked back: "Is it the goods that the person who came in with me just now put down?"

"Yes, he has left." The staff nodded in response.

"I know, I'll take care of it." Xiu sent her away, turned to look at the young lady, and said apologetically: "Okay, you have to wait a little longer~"

"Go ahead, I have something to do here." The young lady glanced at the boxes with a faint smile on her face.

…………

"What is this place?" Xiu looked at the surroundings and felt a little strange. This didn't look like an ordinary place to eat.

"Didn't you say you wanted to try the specialties of Tokiwa City? This is a famous old street in Tokiwa City, with many specialties of Tokiwa City."

The young lady introduced Xiu to a small shop, and when she entered, she greeted the proprietress who was collecting the bill at the front desk.

The other party seemed to recognize her and responded very enthusiastically, but the proprietress looked at Xiu with a strange look.

The two sat down, the young lady ordered dishes here, and Xiu looked around a little.

It was indeed quite lively, belonging to the junction of the old and new urban areas.

It seems that the official food street of Tokiwa City has been built to attract tourists or locals...

"Xiu~"

"Huh!"

Suddenly, the young lady shouted, and Xiu came back to his senses. He was distracted again just now~

"What do you want to eat?"

The young lady handed over the menu, but Xiu didn't mean to take it, and pushed it back.

"You are the protagonist tonight, and I don't know which ones are delicious."

"Then these~" The young lady didn't say much, and turned to the waiter and said.

"You used to come here often, and you seem to be familiar with the boss." Xiu asked these questions casually.

"I used to come here often when I was studying."

"Are you still a local of Tokiwa City?"

The two chatted along this topic.

And Xiu also took this opportunity to learn about the situation of Tokiwa City again, but the young lady seemed a little dissatisfied.

"Why do you only ask these questions?"

"I want to know what kind of city can cultivate people like you."

Xiu's words directly blocked the young lady.

After eating, the two strolled on the street.

Because it is a celebration tonight, the streets are brightly lit. Those who work during the day finally have a chance to go out, and those tourists also take the opportunity to experience the night of Changpan City.

Not to mention that there are battles to watch at the stadium. Although the game will not officially start until tomorrow, tonight's warm-up is also a highlight.

"The resources of Changpan Forest are really rich..." Xiu couldn't help but sighed as he looked at the prosperous scene in front of him, but suddenly looked at the young lady next to him and asked: "If there is a sudden shortage of food in Changpan City, it will be a big deal?"

"How is it possible~" The young lady sneered and said easily: "Even if there is an unexpected disaster and food shortage, the food stored in our Pokémon Center can last for half a month, otherwise why do you think the Pokémon Center exists?"

"Granary..."

Xiu murmured, and his appearance made the young lady a little strange.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Do many people know the location of the granary?"

"Why are you asking this?" The young lady felt that Xiu was getting weirder and weirder, not only the topic, but also the whole person was often absent-minded.

"It's okay~" Xiu's frown slowly relaxed, but he didn't mean to explain, but murmured.

"Maybe I just think too much..."

Here, Xiu sent the person to a residential building. The surrounding environment is good. It seems that she is doing better than most people.

"Don't you want to come up and sit for a while?"

"No, you are tired today. I guess the first thing you want to do when you go back is a hot bath and then lie on the bed to sleep, instead of greeting a boring person like me."

The young lady pursed her lips in dissatisfaction when she heard Xiu's words, but then she laughed for some reason and said something inexplicable to Xiu.

"Goodbye, little brother~"

Xiu couldn't help but smile helplessly when he heard her weird voice. He didn't mean to say anything. He just watched her go upstairs until she disappeared at the corner of the corridor.

It was only at this moment that Xiu's expression changed, with obvious doubts and worries.

He originally asked about the time of getting off work just to bring some fruit over, but he didn't expect to go back late, and was caught off guard by her squatting in advance.

So I just went out to eat, and took this opportunity to learn about things I had overlooked before, such as the business in Changpan City and the price situation.

It was okay if I didn't know, but the more I knew, the stronger the sense of crisis in Xiu's heart became. He always felt that this thing was very fragile.

"Hey!"

A shout brought Xiu back to reality. Looking up, he saw a half-person climbing out of the corridor above and waving at the bottom.

"Danger, go back quickly." Xiu frowned, shouted and turned away.

The lady upstairs was also a little angry when she saw Xiu's reaction. The corners of her mouth that had just been upturned suddenly turned down, and she turned around and opened the door to go into the house.

Xiu wandered alone on the street, observing the stalls and the situation on the street.

Just like that, he wandered back to the Pokémon Center.

And the time had come to more than nine o'clock in the evening.

"Ah~" Xiu slumped in the computer chair, but soon sat up again and released Casey and the others from the Poké Ball.

Because they were in a dormant state, they didn't feel the passage of time, and they adapted a little after coming out.

Xiu had already prepared food for them, and of course, those carefully selected snacks.

“Come, come, come!”

While they were eating, Xiu told them what happened today.
