Xu Yi was stunned, turned around, and saw that Akali appeared outside the door without knowing what, and was leaning against the door at this time, looking at him and Evita, with a smile on his face.

"Akali, what are you talking about!" Evita reprimanded Akali, and quickly went to the window and pulled all the curtains back up.

Looking at Evita, whose whole face looked rosy under the sunlight outside, Xu Yi smiled slightly, thinking that Evita's face was really thin enough.

Turning his head to look at Akali again, his gaze swept over her neck, and Xu Yi was somewhat surprised to find a necklace around her neck.

Although this necklace also looks quite delicate, it is obviously much worse than the one that President Ranko gave to Akali at the previous banquet.

Xu Yi pointed to Akali's neck and asked in confusion, "Since you like to wear necklaces, why don't you bring the one that President Ranko gave you, which suits you better than this one?"

"President Ranko's ......" The expression on Akali's face changed somewhat unnaturally, and then a subtle wry smile flashed as she turned around and staggered down the stairs.

Xu Yi was even more puzzled, he just asked about the necklace, why Akali's reaction was so strange.

"Has something happened to her these past few days?" Xu Yi asked Evita in amazement.

Evita shook her head blankly, "It's nothing. President, you didn't give her that necklace?"

"Me?" Xu Yi also shook his head. "That necklace was given to her by the Ranko president of the Saranke Chamber of Commerce, but it's none of my business. ”

"It turned out to be the Sarank Chamber of Commerce, no wonder it was beautiful. Evita nodded slightly, glanced at Xu Yi, and laughed again. "President, President Ranko must have given Akali that necklace because of you, so it's not wrong to say that you gave it to her. ”

"No, no, no, you can't say that. Xu Yi waved his hand again and again. "The meaning given to her by President Ranko and I gave it to her directly are completely different, and this can't be said nonsense. ”

"Yes, Lord Grown, you are not my boyfriend, and you do not agree to my request to marry you, then of course this necklace cannot be regarded as a gift from you. Akali's voice sounded faintly in the doorway again.

Xu Yi turned around and found that Akali came up this time with an extra box in his hand, which was the box used to hold the necklace that President Orchid gave to Akali when he gave him that day.

Seeing Xu Yi's gaze sweeping over, Akali took two steps and stuffed the box in her hand to Xu Yi.

"President, you can give this necklace back to President Ranko for me, just say that I am not qualified to bring it. ”

Xu Yi frowned, did not reach out to take the box, but looked at Akali seriously, and found that although she looked calm on the surface, it could be seen from the constant beating of the corners of her eyebrows and the continuous opening and closing of her nose that her heart must be very uncalm.

Xu Yi cast an inquiring look at Evita, who shook her head slightly.

After thinking about it, Xu Yi said tentatively: "Akali, this is a gift from President Lanke, if you return it to him, it will be very rude to him, I am afraid it will make him misunderstand that you have an opinion on him, I think ......"

"I don't care! I'm not qualified to bring it anyway!" Akali interrupted Xu Yi loudly.

Xu Yi didn't expect Akali's reaction to be so intense, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then looked at Akali's expression for a while, then sighed in his heart and stretched out his hand to take the next box.

"Well, since you insist on not wanting it, then I'll take it. However, it is not okay to return it to President Ranko, and he cannot be misunderstood. ”

"It's okay if you don't return it to President Ranko, I don't want it anyway!" said Akali stiffly.

Xu Yi looked at Akali with a stubborn face, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking that whether it was on the earth or on this continent, these little girls who were not yet twenty years old were really the most difficult to guess.

He originally wanted to discuss the combination of fluorescent grass and thunder lightning circle with Evita, and rub a meal or something by the way, but now this atmosphere is obviously not suitable for him to continue to stay.

After thinking about it, Xu Yi roughly explained his thoughts to Evita, and asked Evita to conduct further research on fluorescent grass, and it is best to ensure that the fluorescent grass continues to shine steadily, and then can also change the intensity of the light, and even adjust it at will.

Evita responded one by one.

In the process of Xu Yi's explanation, Akali kept standing beside her expressionlessly and didn't speak, and the atmosphere in the room was extremely awkward.

After finally explaining his thoughts clearly, Xu Yi immediately said goodbye to the two of them dryly.

Before leaving, he glanced at Akali, Xu Yi paused, but couldn't help but say, "Akali, if you have any ideas, you can tell me directly." We've been together for a few months now, and you should know that I'm not a bad talker. Of course, if you don't think it's good for me, you still have two good friends, Evita and Steele, you can tell them. In a word...... You and Evita left home and came to Bonta City to work in our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and I don't want you to have a bad time here, understand?"

Akali bit her lip, still not speaking.

Xu Yi sighed, glanced at Evita, and pointed at Akali.

Evita nodded slightly, signaling Xu Yi to rest assured.

Xu Yi waved his hand, refused Evita's move to send him, and left directly.

Hearing the sound of Xu Yi walking down the stairs, and then hearing the sound of Xu Yi closing the door on the first floor, Akali's expression suddenly collapsed instantly, two lines of tears rolled down from her eyes, and then she fluttered and lay directly on Evita's bed, whimpering while slamming the bed hard.

Evita sighed and shook her head, walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, reached out and patted Akali on the back, and said softly, "Okay, you know it's impossible, why do you have to bump into it yourself?"

After a while, Akali slowly stopped whimpering, and suddenly rubbed her head on the quilt a few times, then turned her head and looked at Evita with a sideways face, her expression still a little stubborn.

"How do you know it's impossible without trying?"

Evita smiled wryly, "But you've tried it now, do you think it's possible?"

Akali suddenly made a bitter face: "It seems that it is indeed impossible...... Hey, Evita, do you think I'm a lot worse than Steele?"

Evita stared at Akali for a moment, and nodded with a serious expression, "It's a lot worse." At the very least, Steele wouldn't cry like you do. Other than that...... You'll have to admit that Steele is much prettier than you. ”

"Hmph! Pretty isn't the only one. Akali muttered. "Besides, from what I've observed, the elder doesn't seem to be very special about her. ”

Evita couldn't help but slap Akali on the forehead, "Are you stupid? Steele is prettier than you, has a better personality than you, and has spent much more time with the Elder than you, so the Elder doesn't have any thoughts about her, so why do you think the Elder will think of you?"

"Maybe the Elder likes my type?" Steele replied unconvinced, his eyes rolled, and he suddenly asked with a mysterious face: "Evita, you said that the Elder is 27 years old this year, but he is not married, and we haven't seen any close relationship with any girl, even a beauty like Steele, he has nothing special to say, should he be ...... You like men, right?"

###

"Ahh

Xu Yi sneezed heavily, couldn't help pinching his nose, and then looked up at the sky.

One of the purposes of his visit to the institute was to have dinner, and it was late when he went, and now he had been away for a while, and it was already getting a little dark.

It's already the beginning of November, and the climate on the continent of Sainz has entered winter.

Because it is located in the south-southwest of the central part of the continent, the winter in the Lampari Kingdom is not as cold as in the north, but the streets of Bonta City at this time will still feel cold once it falls into the night.

Xu Yi tidied up his clothes and wrapped himself more tightly.

"By the way, I almost forgot about it, Vivien probably doesn't have winter clothes yet, and it looks like I'll have to find some time to buy her a few. However, I am not familiar with the girls' clothes, so I still have to ask Steele and them for help. Thinking of this, Xu Yi naturally thought of Akali.

Touching the box in his arms, Xu Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Because when he was on Earth, he was obsessed with mechanical research all day long, and he didn't have the time and energy to interact with girls, and after coming to this world, he was busy getting familiar with this world and trying to survive in this world for the past few years, and it was impossible for him to have any in-depth intersection with the girls in this world, so he couldn't understand why Akali had such a strange reaction.

However, he knew very well that a young girl of Akali's age was the most difficult to understand when his mind was in the first place, and it was not unusual for him to not be able to guess at all.

He wasn't ready to guess it, because there were too many things for him to think about now compared to the little girls' thoughts.

Whether it is the research and development of a new magic machine, or the steps to create an industrial system, it will take a huge amount of time and energy.

In addition, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is also facing the crisis brought about by the rapid development, and even Xu Yi's personal magic strength, which Xu Yi valued the least before, has reached a time when it must be improved, both of which also require Xu Yi to invest time and energy.

Many times, Xu Yi even wants to break himself into several parts, each focusing on one aspect, so that these aspects can be better developed.

But the fact is that of course this is impossible to do, and in these aspects, there is no one to replace Xu Yi, so he can only concentrate his energy and time as much as possible, and dare not waste even a little more.

Fortunately, even if Xu Yi is a workaholic on Earth, as long as he is interested in mechanical research, he will only become more and more energetic.

"In fact, it's still an old problem, and talents are rare. Xu Yi knocked on his forehead, thinking that this problem was really unsolvable.

The understanding of magic on the continent of Sainz is still only about destruction and killing, although there are also practical applications of magic such as magic crystal lamps, but it is only a very small accident, and there is no popularity at all.

If Xu Yi wants to create a complete industrial system on the Sainz continent according to his own ideas, he can only change the thinking and understanding of the people on the Sainz continent little by little through the practical magic machinery.

The good news is that, at least in Bonta City, there is a good understanding of magical machines.

"It would be nice to have more magicians who know how to use magic, and it would be better if all the magicians in the whole continent came to study the application of magic, then I wouldn't have to work so hard. Pity...... Huh?"

Xu Yi's gaze suddenly fell to the side of the road.

Two familiar figures came into view and walked into a small restaurant on the side of the road.
