Zhao Chen's sharp eyes saw several adults walking towards this side anxiously. He had a premonition in his heart. He immediately lowered his head and said to the child who said he was blind: "Kid, brother, I have something to do. I'll wait until four o'clock in the evening."
I'll wait for you under the tree over there and show you the other elves, okay?"
He believed that no child could resist this temptation.
As expected, when he heard this, the child became even more happy, and he nodded quickly.
Seeing this, Zhao Chen continued to seduce: "But you can't tell others! This is a secret between us. If others find out, I won't show it to you!"
Although the words may sound childish, they can be said to be a very serious threat to such a child of about seven or eight years old.
There was a trace of struggle on the child's face, but when he saw the white dragon in front of him tilting his head to look at him, the struggle immediately disappeared.
Go to hell!
Nothing is as important as White Dragon!
The child thought so, maybe the big brother in front of him would let him fly to the sky on a white dragon if he saw that he was doing well.
At this time, the adults also came here.
Zhao Chen immediately turned around and left, following a group of old men for morning exercises as if taking a walk.
However, those old men seemed to have seen a ghost, and they suddenly disappeared in front of Zhao Chen's eyes, as if they were running at a leisurely pace.
Zhao Chen: ...The people here seem a bit xenophobic.
Seeing this, he simply sat on a bench by the roadside and basked in the sun with Huobanmao in his arms.
Several days have passed since the taming of the fire-spotted cat. The little guy was irrigated with high-quality energy cubes and moo milk every day, and the missing nutrients were quickly replenished. His body was no longer thin, and new fur grew on his belly.
You can't tell that it was a thin and pitiful little creature not long ago.
Most of the cat elves like the Fire Spot Cat have aloof and arrogant personalities, but this Fire Spot Cat is different from other Fire Spot Cats.
It has a docile personality (only docile to Zhao Chen), loves family members (only close to Zhao Chen), does not seem aloof at all, and will actively run over to rub against people.
Zhao Chen stroked the smooth fur of Huobanmao, and the kitten immediately purred comfortably.
Such a warm scene made even the townspeople watching from a distance feel a little moved in their hearts.
There was even a girl who looked like she was underage and came over to say hello with a blushing face.
Zhao Chen looked up at her and responded in a friendly manner.
The girl mustered up her courage: "Excuse me...are you the White Dragon Knight?" She also saw the scene that just happened in the square.
Zhao Chen smiled slightly: "It's just a title. It doesn't have to be so serious. If you don't mind, you can just call me by my name."
Obviously, the other party knew his name.
As a star-chasing girl, with good looks and gentleness, Zhao Chen has almost everything that Lin Xiaoxi likes.
Lin Xiaoxi blushed and asked, "Can I sit here?"
Zhao Chen nodded slightly and touched the fluffy little ears of Fire Spot Cat with his right hand.
Lin Xiaoxi sat down and wanted to ask for a group photo so that she could post it on WeChat to show off, but she was afraid that the other person wouldn't like this behavior, so she suppressed the idea.
However, she didn't know that Zhao Chen knew exactly what she was thinking. Seeing the girl holding her cell phone and hesitating to speak, Zhao Chen smiled and said: "I'm not a celebrity, but if you want to take a photo,
I'm still happy to satisfy you."
"Eh? Is that okay?"
Lin Xiaoxi's eyes immediately lit up.
She picked up her phone and took a group photo. When she got closer, she could smell the faint scent of laundry detergent on the other person's clothes.
The two of them chatted here all morning, talking about elves, studying, and the life of a trainer.
Zhao Chen didn't ask anything about the town during the whole process.
When facing the separation, Lin Xiaoxi hesitated for a moment, then said: "Zhao Chen, I know your purpose of coming here, actually..."
Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by a sharp female voice.
A fat woman wearing an apron walked over menacingly. She twisted the girl's ears almost roughly and dragged her away. As she walked away, she cursed: "Damn girl, what did I tell you? Are you deaf?"
"
Lin Xiaoxi did not look back at Zhao Chen. She felt that it was very embarrassing to be treated like this in front of the person she liked.
After the two left, the gentle expression on Zhao Chen's face disappeared. Now, he was sure that there must be something wrong with this town.
Why does Darkrai treat the people in this town like this?
Why do people in this small town remain silent in front of outsiders?
What did they do that would cause Darkrai to do such harm to humanity?
Zhao Chen can confirm that although Darkrai likes nightmares, he will never bully humans for no reason.
But he couldn't figure it out, so he could only pin his hopes on that naughty kid in the afternoon.
With this thought in mind, Han Dong's voice came from the earphones, asking a few people to go back and gather.
Zhao Chen put away the fire spot cat, got up and returned to the hotel.
The hotel proprietress looked at the few people with a smile. She knew without looking that she had received an extremely considerable amount of compensation.
Zhou Yuanqun stepped forward and asked, "Sister, do you know what's going on in this town?"
Hearing this question, the hotel lady suddenly changed her face and pretended to be stupid: "What? What are you talking about? Oh, I just came here to work from other places, I don't know anything!"
Come on, it seems like nothing can be asked.
Zhou Yuan Qunsheng has no loveable face.
Several people returned to the room and exchanged the information they had learned in the morning.
Ye Changxin shook his head: "I gained nothing."
Zhou Yuanqun complained: "Those people acted as if they had seen a ghost when they saw me. They hid far away and finally caught a few who were running slowly and pretended to be mute."
Han Dong didn't speak. It was obvious that he also encountered the same situation.
Ye Yang on the side spread his hands: "Look! We have done these things before. I think they would rather be scared to death than say what happened."
Zhao Chen thought for a moment and then asked, "Has anyone moved out of town recently?"
Ye Yang was stunned for a moment, his face looked a little strange, and he obviously realized something: "No."
Zhao Chen didn't need to explain the next words, Han Dong said it for him: "It's strange. If a normal person encounters such a situation, he will definitely move away as soon as possible."
"Don't they want to leave their hometown?" Zhou Yuanqun asked, scratching his head.
Zhao Chen shook his head: "Is it possible that they want to move out, but someone forces them to stay here and does not allow them to leave?"
He realized in the morning that with so many people keeping silent about the same thing, what happened before must be extraordinary.
Hearing this conclusion, others were stunned.
Ye Yang couldn't help but say: "Who has such great power to control hundreds of people in the town?"
Under strong pressure, some people will rebel.
Among hundreds of people, there will always be someone who has a rebellious mentality. If you ask me to stay here, I will leave.
This is human nature.
This is a normal reaction.
Zhao Chen nodded: "So obviously, that incident threatened the collective interests of these hundreds of people. Only in this way will they all remain silent."
