Chapter 337 Showdown
Chapter 337 Showdown
......
886 slapped his forehead and pointed at Paimon flying around on the screen and complained,
"No, I remember when the server was first launched, Paimon was positioned as a tour guide! How come he's become a lazy idiot now?"
"Thank you for the invitation. Paimon is a guide, not a tour guide."
"What's the difference?"
"Guide fees apply, but Paimon is free."
"What? Paimon is free? Is this true? Is the promotion over?"
"The one in front, pull up your trousers to talk, and take your hands out of your trousers so I can put the silver bracelet on you."
"Forward, if you want to wear the bracelet, then wear the bracelet. Why are you taking off your pants?"
"What? Do it!"
"No, he's already done something wrong to Paimon, why are you rewarding him?"
"...How can these words form a sentence..."
"I usually see things so quickly that by the time I realize what I've seen, it's already too late..."
......
Although Egolia was also surprised, she was much more restrained than Paimon.
The five of them kept their distance from the embarrassing strange white flying object in front of them, but unfortunately, the white flying object recognized them.
"Wow! Ying, look at this boat! It's so huge, and it's all made of machinery!"
"Wow! Hines, have you ever been on a boat like this? It doesn't even require a human to drive it!"
"Wow! Linny, can you do a magic trick and move it from the water to the land?"
"..."
Suppressed laughter reached the ears of the five people without any hindrance. Ying stepped forward with a blushing face and covered Paimon's mouth with her hands. She raised her fist with a forced smile and looked at the white flying object in her arms.
“Don’t embarrass yourself!!!”
That’s right, because Paimon is almost dying from being trapped here in Ying, the white flying object super evolves!
White trash!
Linny took the initiative to take on the task of smoothing things over.
"Okay, okay, it's getting late, let's get on the boat quickly..."
The cruise ship was very spacious and could easily accommodate 20 people. The six of them naturally sat in groups of two or four on both sides. However, their fame was a bit too great and they were recognized as soon as they boarded the ship.
"Are you the famous magician Mr. Linney and his sister and assistant Ms. Linnet!?"
The pink-haired girl with a camera slung over her waist spoke in surprise. Linny was also shocked by this sudden greeting. After thinking about it again and again, he still had no impression of this girl.
"Excuse me, who are you?"
"I'm a reporter for the Steambird, Charlotte."
It turned out to be a reporter, not a fan. Lenny's smile once again occupied the high ground.
"Nice to meet you!"
Linnet put one hand on her chest and greeted.
"nice to meet you."
Then, Charlotte looked at the four people opposite.
"I suppose these four are the famous travelers?"
Paimon accepted Charlotte's praise without any guilt.
"Hehe, you're pretty amazing too. You actually know all of us!"
"If I don't even know you guys, I'm not a qualified reporter..."
During the conversation with Charlotte, everyone learned that she was investigating a case of serial disappearances of young girls.
For more than 20 days, young girls continued to disappear. Even though many suspects were arrested, the culprit was never apprehended.
"...As a result, young girls continue to disappear even now."
......
"Oh my god, what a vicious criminal! All the girls are missing!? What did he do to those girls!?"
"This is intolerable! It's been 20 years. If the same person has been committing crimes all the time, that's horrific!"
"In fact, copycat crimes are more terrifying. This has been going on for 20 years without interruption, which probably means this is a criminal gang."
"What's the Thivat Northern Myanmar Industrial Park? Once you enter the park, you just disappear."
"Alright, the Fontaine main storyline has solved the prophecy. The main quest at this stage is to find the bastard who kidnapped the girl!"
......
"I still have an interview, see you guys later~"
The moment the cruise ship docked, Charlotte ran out. It was obvious that she was really anxious.
Linny watched as several people extended their invitations.
"I still need to go home and prepare some props. Do you want to come with me?"
"Forget about Egolia and I. We're just going to hang out. Don't worry, we won't miss your performance."
Hines waved his hand to decline the invitation, and Egolia smiled politely and shook her head.
Ying had no intention of being a third wheel, so naturally she wouldn't take the initiative to ask to act with them.
As for Paimon, she had no desire to follow the past because of the promise of dry food from Sines.
"Yeah, it doesn't matter if you're late, as long as you can be there when it ends!"
Hines doesn't have to watch Linney's performance, but he has to treat everyone to dinner!
Just like that, the six of them split into two groups. Sines and Egolia walked on the familiar yet unfamiliar streets, looking at the dazzling array of new shops around them, as if they had returned to the past.
"Hey, Hines..."
Egolia took out a small bag of Mora from her backpack. Hines understood that he would be responsible for the wallet and the luggage rack. He sighed slightly and then said with a smile,
"No problem, my queen~"
"...Don't be so corny..."
"Okay, my queen~"
Egolia rolled her eyes and was made to laugh by Sines.
This incident also taught her that people really laugh out loud when they are speechless.
While shopping, Egolia asked casually,
"Do you think what Linnie said is true?"
"It seems there's nothing wrong, and there's not much point in them lying. The most important thing is that when they heard there was a solution, the hope in their eyes wasn't fake."
Egolia nodded and continued walking forward.
"Now, there are several parties who want to resolve the Fontaine prophecy. The Hearth House represents the Fatui, you, me, and Ying represent the unexpected forces, and finally, the Fontaine official Fukaros, that Villette..."
Eugolia leaned against Sines and whispered,
"...And the current water goddess, Miss Funina, right?"
Since Linnie's performance was about to begin, there were not many passers-by on the street, which was why Egolia discussed this matter directly on the street.
Now that the time was right, she didn't have to hide her doubts any longer.
Hines scratched his head and said helplessly,
"You're right, but now... it's not very convenient to explain..."
Egolia turned around and smiled,
"It's okay. This answer is enough. We should discuss your problem when we get home tonight."
