Adventurer of the Elf World

How come Xiu didn't know that Nanami and Saori had such a good relationship?

After finishing the conversation, Xiu sat on a chair and thought about the Saori problem.

But before he could think for long, there was a sound at the door of the laboratory, but this time it was Shiori.

"Boss! It's time to eat."

And Shiori, who was standing outside the door, didn't come in, but just stood outside obediently.

She wasn't stupid. Xiu just came in and sent her away with a casual word. Coupled with his expression at that time, it was obvious that something was wrong.

"Let's go, let's eat first." Xiu didn't mean to embarrass Shiori, but was just like usual.

This reaction made Shiori feel a lot more relieved.

Before, when they were in school, the Gil couple would vent their anger on her when they were dissatisfied, and they would beat and scold her at any time.

But now it seems that Xiu doesn't have this habit.

At the dinner table, Shiori saw Xiu looking very embarrassed, and coupled with the situation just now, she couldn't help but ask: "Boss, is there something wrong?"

"Nothing~" Xiu shook his head slowly, and didn't mean to tell Shiori about this matter.

Xiu's attitude was obvious. Shiori didn't dare to ask more questions. She just ate slowly and looked up from time to time to observe Xiu secretly.

After dinner, Xiu hurried out.

Xiu didn't wait until tomorrow to find someone as he said before, but went directly to the hotel.

Xiu knocked on the door of the room and stood aside waiting.

This time, he didn't wait too long like last time. The door opened after a short while.

Unlike the bath towel and professional suit when they met before, Shiori appeared in front of Xiu this time, wearing a loose plain pajamas.

To be honest, Xiu felt that this set of lethality was greater than the previous two sets. The looming visual effect was like a kitten scratching your heart.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Xiu's arrival, Shiori's smile became more intense, and her words even had a strange meaning.

"Let's talk."

"Can't wait even for a whole night?"

The woman's voice was very light, but it had a touching feeling.

However, this trick didn't seem to work on Xiu. There was no expression on his face. His eyes looking at Saori were as calm and deep as a cold pond.

"Let's go in and talk."

When Saori saw Xiu's expression, the faint smile on her face suddenly disappeared. She laughed directly, turned around and walked back, and didn't forget to tease.

"Are you so impatient~"

Xiu looked at her twisting body, took a deep breath involuntarily, and then walked in.

The door of the room closed at this moment, and the door lock made a slight sound.

"Would you like something to drink?" Saori didn't walk into the hall, but picked up a palm-sized glass bottle from the side, and the amber liquid in it swayed with her movements.

"No~ I don't drink." Xiu waved his hand to refuse, then sat on the sofa today, and then continued: "Let's talk about business."

Saori heard Xiu's words but didn't mean to stop, but chuckled and said: "You don't even do enough foreplay and want to get straight to the point, you are really~"

Xiu didn't mean to play with her, he interrupted her directly and asked: "Miss Saori, why do you want to contact Professor Oak through Nanami's relationship?"

Hearing this, Saori's face with a smile suddenly collapsed, that charming look disappeared without a trace, but a little solemn.

Seeing the other party's performance, Xiu's mouth corners couldn't help but curl up slightly.

Now it is confirmed that the relationship between this person and Nanami is not as good as imagined.

Now it seems that it is true.

For her, Nanami is probably just a stepping stone.

"Talk to me, maybe you can gain something." Xiu took back the sovereignty with a sentence, and now he was not as serious as before, but seemed very casual.

Saori was just slightly stunned, but soon adjusted herself, and the smile on her face that had just faded reappeared.

She held the wine glass in one hand, just like today during the day, and sat opposite Xiu.

But now her sitting posture did not look very formal, but leaned on the sofa, giving people a lazy feeling.

"I am not interested in your messy relationships. Since Professor Oak recommended you to come here, just tell me directly, what do you want to do?"

Xiu did not follow Professor Oak's instructions at all and tried to be polite. Instead, he said the most important thing as soon as he opened his mouth.

In fact, Xiu had noticed in the previous handover that this person was very smart and was not someone he could deal with casually.

Instead of trying to deceive and fool around, it is better to just lay it out.

Everyone is smart, so it is naturally much easier to communicate like this.

As for how to explain to Professor Oak?

There is no explanation. I believe that Professor Oak also knows that Xiu will not do everything he says.

In other words, when Professor Oak let the person come over, he might have made this plan.

"Just like what Xiaomei said, you are just a piece of wood, you don't understand romance at all~" Saori took a sip of wine, and then naturally complained about Xiu.

"There's nothing I can do, wood is very afraid of fire, once it burns it will turn into ash."

Xiu likes to be a riddler, but he hates others playing these tricks with him. He is too lazy to play charades with her, so he said, "Let's talk about business. What are your plans for coming here? I'll see if I can help you."

"I need a job." Saori said as she leaned forward, raised the wine glass in front of her, and swung it towards Xiu.

"You are not bad. If you just want this, there is no need to contact Professor Oak, and there is no need to come here."

Xiu did not completely listen to others' opinions, and immediately counterattacked.

"We are all smart people, so let's speak frankly and don't talk about these nonsense."

Saori raised her eyebrows when she heard this, but soon calmed down.

"I need a stage to show my abilities."

Xiu looked up and glanced at Saori, with a hint of warning in his eyes.

"You want to get to the top in one step? Then your appetite is not small~"

Xiu spoke casually, but the content was very polite.

"People with ability can always take on more, isn't it?"

Hearing Saori's undisguised admission, Xiu felt a little amused at this moment.

This person is too confident. Even if she is a top student as Professor Oak said, without basic experience, it is hard for Xiu to believe that she can take on such a big responsibility.
