Xia Xu did not expect that this work would last for such a long time. When the alliance dispatched the mission, she thought she was simply explaining the local history and culture to Luther. However, a week has passed in a flash.
This week, Luther took her everywhere throughout Sinnoh, leaving their footprints in major cities and even in the uninhabited wilderness.
But she also received praise from Luther.
The search process was extremely tedious, and Xia Xu's explanation of local history and culture became Luther's daily way to relieve his fatigue.
For a person who doesn't like to read thick history books, a storyteller who can explain history in an easy-to-understand and engaging way is simply a treasure.
In the process of searching, Luther also began to understand the influence of the name Qidao.
During the search process, I inevitably had to deal with many people. Most of them were very easy to talk to and enthusiastically assisted without any payment.
The few remaining people will also choose to help after hearing Qidao's name.
Two years ago, when it came to Qidao, only a few well-informed people knew that it had been purchased by Luther.
To this group of people, Qidao is just a private island.
It's different now. As Qidao's infrastructure is improved, information on the island is being unearthed bit by bit, and Qidao's influence begins to rise.
To most people, Luther is a legend for being able to integrate Sirona and other powerful trainers on the island.
It's just that Luther rarely showed up. Since the end of the Lily of the Valley Conference, in the past two years or so, he has appeared in the public eye only a handful of times.
However, the few information that has been released is enough for the people to digest it for a long time. For example, the defeat of Groudon, and for example, what everyone is still talking about now is beating up Ron and turning against the Sinnoh Alliance.
.
There are still a small number of people who are as dim-witted as Naga, the head of the Kalaho family. Even if most people look down on or dislike Luther, they will not express their attitude openly.
Yishan is right, this is a troublesome thing.
It is too difficult to sort out a small incident that happened in this land two hundred years ago. It is normal for the information to be disconnected and never be connected again.
Xia Xu tried to persuade her once, but Luther didn't listen.
"It's not broken yet, we'll talk about it later."
Even if it is broken, she can give an explanation to the dream monster at that time, which can be regarded as fulfilling her wish.
Several times, when everyone thought that the news could not be traced back, Luther was always able to continue the trail because of the generous help of some enthusiastic people.
This search is like a relay race with a huge span. There will always be athletes who catch up when they are about to fall behind and put the baton into the hands of the next person.
The elf was changed hands? The person who changed hands changed hands again? Someone sold it away again...
Luther and Xia Xu stood on a hillside, overlooking the town at the foot of the mountain.
"Walking around? I didn't expect to come to Black Gold City." Xia Xu sighed with emotion. "This seems to be on the outskirts of Black Gold City... I don't know if it can be regarded as Black Gold City."
Is there no point in searching hard? Guided by those almost broken clues? Luther finally found the family that was most likely to give the dream monster an answer so far.
Xia Xu is right. This place is outside the scope of Black Gold City on the map. This small town was actually built by a gathering of people who made a living nearby.
Based on the information, Luther found a small house of more than thirty square meters. He knocked on the door for a long time, but no one responded.
"Do you have anything to do with Wuye?"
Alarmed by Luther's movements, an uncle walked out from next door and looked at Luther curiously.
"Ah? There is something wrong. Are you her neighbor?"
"If she is here to collect debts, just forgive her. She has just found a new job now, and she won't be able to pay it back so quickly. At least give her some time."
Luther knew that the uncle had misunderstood? He quickly explained.
Knowing that Luther was not one of those annoying debt collectors, he told Luther where Kiriye worked in Black Gold City.
The place where Wuye works is a restaurant? It was not the peak dining period when Luther arrived, so it was easy to find her cleaning.
"The photo is right...just a little thin."
Xia Xu took another look at the message and was convinced that the person in front of him was the one he was looking for.
In fact, Xia Xu said it very politely. It can be said that the nineteen-year-old Kiriye is not only thin, but also very pale. He breathes heavily when mopping the floor. It looks like he has low blood sugar.
A stranger suddenly appeared and stopped her, which made Kiriye look very wary. When she raised her head to ask for help from her colleagues, Xia Xu took out her alliance work ID.
The alliance provided such a sense of security that Wuye breathed a sigh of relief.
After sitting on a chair nearby, Wuye explained sheepishly: "Sorry, I made you laugh."
Luther didn't point it out. Based on some news he just heard in the town, he already knew why Wuye looked panicked.
Without understanding the cause and effect, he did not intend to casually get involved in other people's entanglements.
Luther explained in detail why he was looking for her, and then released the dream monster.
"Although it's been a long time, I still want to ask, do you know why your ancestors went through so much trouble to buy back all the elves that the Karaho family sold to other people?"
"And, have you ever heard from the elders in your family how those elves fared?"
Luther ordered a hot drink and said hello to Wuye's store manager, asking Wuye to replenish some sugar.
Wuye held the hot drink and looked at the Dream Demon with a smile on his lips.
"There are actually people like Mr. Luther who are willing to go through all kinds of troubles and spend countless energy traveling around for an answer."
"Great-grandmother will probably be very happy to see you like this." After saying that, Wuye reached out and touched the dream demon.
"My great-grandmother used to be the nanny who took care of Miss Shishi. Maybe you can't remember the dream demon, but she has always been thinking about you."
"Yes, those elves were passed around by people from the original family. In the end, my great-grandmother and great-grandfather paid for them and brought them back. It took them two full years, all their savings were spent, and no one understood them."
After taking a sip of the hot drink, Wuye said softly: "When I was a child, I heard the elders say this and I really didn't understand it."
"I spent all my savings, lived a life of poverty, and starved myself but not the elves. Is it really necessary?"
"They obviously live a more comfortable life, so why bother with their own lives?"
"Now I can understand a little bit," Wuye said, "Some things cannot be measured by money. Everything is worth it for the things you like and insist on."
