Adventurer of the Elf World

Chapter 172: Another wave of trouble

Xiu just watched the award ceremony below. After taking a group photo with several people, Miss Joy didn't stay too long. She pushed those people away with the help of her assistant and entered the backstage.

On the contrary, Dr. Oki was attached to those reporters and the like.

Xiu just smiled softly when he saw this, and then went to save the scene.

"Please get out of the way!" Xiu pushed the messy people away, then squeezed in next to Dr. Omu, and said a few words in a pretentious manner.

A smile suddenly appeared on Dr. Ohmu's face, and he excused himself to those people: "I'm sorry~ I still have something to deal with..."

It's just that those people didn't care about this. They just kept asking some weird questions until they retreated to the backstage and were stopped by the staff of the Elf Center.

"Why did you come here so late?" Dr. Omu, who had just escaped, asked Xiu. His appearance was not as decent as before.

"Something happened~" Xiu didn't answer directly, but said quietly.

This statement made Dr. Omu feel a little strange, and he couldn't help but ask: "What do you mean?"

"Doctor, please listen to my advice. If you leave now, you can still leave Joban City. Otherwise, you will be forced to stay here."

"Speak humanly!" Dr. Omu also noticed that Xiu's attitude was a little abnormal, and there was doubt in his eyebrows.

Xiu shook his head slowly and paused for two seconds before continuing: "I don't know the details of this, but I think there may be a problem in Tokiwa City, and it will be too late if we don't leave~"

"No way!" Dr. Omu was not a fool. After thinking about it for a while, he seemed to have guessed something. He couldn't help but quicken his steps and hurried inside.

Xiu had no intention of speaking and just followed silently.

Dr. Oki found Miss Joy backstage, but there was something wrong with the situation in the room.

There was one more person, the team leader from before.

At this time, the team leader was reporting his work to Miss Joy, when Dr. Ohki and Xiu pushed in the door.

"Doctor! You know it too~" Miss Joy's face was solemn, her eyes gradually moved from Dr. Omu to Xiu who was standing aside.

The other assistants and team leader couldn't help but look at Xiu.

Know? What should I know?

Dr. Oak didn't react. Why are you all the Riddler?

But when those people's eyes were focused on Xiu.

Dr. Ohki couldn't help but look over.

The look in his eyes seemed to be asking, "No wonder you asked me to run away. What did you do?"

"I didn't do anything, it's none of my business~" Xiu defended himself somewhat helplessly.

It's just that Dr. Ohki obviously doesn't believe it...

Fortunately, Miss Joy spoke in time and explained the general situation.

However, Dr. Ohki still asked Xiu: "How do you know there is something wrong with that person?"

"At the end of the game, there were your speeches and the award ceremony afterwards. Most of the people who bought tickets didn't care to watch these, so those who got up at that time were either going to the bathroom or leaving, but he couldn't take either of these two paths. I didn’t choose, but took another route. He was very conspicuous when most people were motionless.”

"Since you think he has a problem, why didn't you notify us in advance?" Dr. Omu asked one after another, obviously not intending to let him go.

"But at the time, I was just suspicious. There was no evidence to directly prove that there was something wrong with that person. I wasn't basically sure until he opened the door. But at that time, I didn't have time to wait for someone to come over, so I had to risk going in."

Xiu's words stopped here. The strange thing was that Dr. Omu didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he said to Miss Joy:

"I'm sorry he acted recklessly."

Miss Joy waved her hand, with a smile on her face, and said calmly: "Doctor, there is no need to blame him. On the contrary, I have to thank him for noticing, otherwise I will be in big trouble."

"With all these things going on, I'm afraid Miss Joy is also very busy, so we won't bother you too much." Dr. Omu didn't mean to take credit at all, but instead retreated bravely with Xiu Jiliu.

"You are really going to cause trouble for me~" Dr. Ohmu muttered to Xiu when he came out of the door, but his expression soon changed, looking a little helpless, and completely lost the seriousness just now.

Xiu smiled slightly.

He knew that Dr. Ohmu's questions just now were not to blame him. On the contrary, he was actively asking questions to let himself explain, get rid of suspicion, and at the same time pull him away from the matter.

It can be considered as caring for him.

However, when Dr. Ohmu saw Xiu still laughing, his expression became a little embarrassed, and he could only face Xiu with a straight face:

"Still laughing? Tell me what you know."

"Remember before..."

While walking around, he told Dr. Oak the information he had collected.

Now that the situation has reached this point, it means that the Rockets have no way out and can only go on.

In other words, there was no need to keep it secret, so Xiu picked out some more feasible inferences and spoke out.

"Isn't it possible that there is a problem at the granary?"

Dr. Oak whispered something, and just when he was about to go back to find Miss Joy, a staff member of the elf center passed by the two in a hurry.

Dr. Omu's figure suddenly stopped and he stopped walking.

Xiu looked very pityful. He looked at the backs and said casually: "It seems something has happened~"

Dr. Ohmu stopped in place when he heard Xiu's words, his face uncertain.

Xiu couldn't help but sigh when he saw Dr. Ohki like this, and said comfortingly:

"If the doctor wants to go back, then go back. Anyway, the road must have been destroyed at this time, so you can't go there even if you want to~"

Dr. Oak was also a little confused, with a trace of worry on his face, but he quickly sorted out his thoughts and turned back.

"Let's go and see if there is anything we can do to help."

Seeing this, Xiu had no choice but to follow, because he knew that Dr. Oak couldn't let go.

When he walked back again, he ran into Miss Joy, but her face was a little ugly at this time.

"What happened?"

Dr. Oak asked, and Miss Joy nodded slightly.

The other party didn't stop, so Dr. Oak and Xiu had to turn around and follow.

The two big men were talking in front, and Xiu and his two assistants followed behind.

Listening to the information they revealed, the granary was indeed on fire. Although the fire was put out in time and did not spread, the grain was burned.

A group of people got in the car and rushed over there, and Xiu looked out through the window.

It was past four in the afternoon, and everything was normal. There was no difference in the number of people coming and going on the streets, but Xiu knew that this was just an appearance. The information was blocked and had not spread.

Or perhaps this negative situation could not shake the foundation of Tokiwa City's years of operation.

But what about the continuous negatives?

You have to know that this thing is not an addition operation, but a chain reaction.
