Chapter 35: Search (1)

Syllable!

A familiar slap, Bai He was woken up in this rather inhumane familiar way. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

What appears in the blurred field of vision is not the wooden ceiling that has become accustomed to it, but the wooden ceiling that is quite unfamiliar. Although they are all wooden ceilings, they are all similar shapes, but Bai He can instinctively understand that this is not the room he usually sleeps in.

After his gaze wandered around the room for a while, the image his eyes received finally reminded Bai He of where he was now.

β€œ............”

Looking at the side again, Mei Ou, who looked like a child in size, was standing on the side of the bed with a cold face and looking at Bai He. After a period of getting along, the relationship between Bai He and Mei Ou has made great progress, and it is no longer as tense as before. After all, this change is not noticeable just by looking at it. On the surface, Bai He was still beaten every day like he had when he first arrived. Mei Ou is the same, as long as Bai He makes a mistake, she will directly hit it, and there is no room for bargaining.

Just looking at it, the relationship between the two of them still looks bad.

But Bai He knew that there had been a lot of run-in between them. For example, Mei Ou wakes Bai He up with a slap every morning, and after getting used to it, Bai He can clearly understand that Mei Ou is not really beating him, it is just a way to wake up. Otherwise, with Mei Ou's arm strength, she could even slap Bai He's spine if she wanted to. Also, Bai He will be in a trance for a period of time when he wakes up every day, about a minute or so, during this time, Mei Ou will never urge again, but quietly wait for Bai He's head to be clear.

When you are fully conscious, get up and change your clothes.

Before he knew it, Bai He had become accustomed to this maid outfit. Of course, he didn't like women's clothes, but he just consciously accepted the premise that he had to wear a maid's outfit at work. It's like wearing a shirt and tie when a white-collar worker is working.

But until now, he has not been able to know whether his gender is male or female. If you want to say that it is a man, the work clothes he wears are maid clothes, and the roommate is also female in terms of gender. If it's a woman, the dirty clothes she was wearing when she was bought have been changed into dresses when she woke up, and no matter who changed it, there will always be people who know that Bai He is a man anyway.

In any case, it is unlikely that the slave trader will sell the goods without even knowing the gender of the goods, and such a bad thing will be complained about by the customers.

The remaining possibility is that someone between Eevee and Meo knows his actual gender. After comparing with each other, Bai He still felt that it was more likely that the person who knew his actual gender was Mei Ou. After all, Ibu is a swinger no matter how he looks at it, and he will never degenerate to the point of buying a man to go home as a maid.

Bai He felt that if Ibu knew that he was actually a handle underneath, then his life would be in danger.

After thinking about it like this, Bai He was a little more grateful to Mei Ou who kept his secret.

The breakfast at York's hospitality was something very simple.

Breakfast is really quite simple, just plain bread with something that looks like a soft-boiled omelette. The omelette tasted barely okay - it was better to say that the omelette tasted the same no matter how you made it, but the bread tasted very unpleasant. It's hard and dry, and even a little bitter, and it's really incomparable to the kind of freshly baked fluffy bread that Meo made at Deiz, so to speak, one day and one place.

If it weren't for the fact that everyone was accustomed to it, Bai He would really think that this kidney deficiency skeleton was deliberately making things difficult for them. It seems that the living conditions in the countryside are really difficult.

Bai He thought so, but he didn't know that such living conditions were actually common in a village like this, so the others were not unhappy about it.

But before eating, Bai He found something quite interesting.

【Xiang ...... Thank you to His Majesty the Holy King for giving us food. With these words in his mouth, York made a gesture that seemed to have the same meaning as the Christian cross on his chest. With his movement as a signal, everyone with a plate in front of them followed suit.

[Thank you to His Majesty the Holy King for giving us food.] Hakuga knows the meaning of this series of actions, which is similar to the Japanese "I started" and the "thank the Lord for giving us food" that those who believe in Brother Su do before meals. That is, they are giving thanks to the God they believe in.

Bai He is an atheist born in the 21st century, but he is no exception if everyone does it, so he also learns from everyone's movements and does it very jerky.

Do it, but Bai He didn't know what was in those words.

Mei Ou also has the same jerky movements as Bai He, but she learned so well that she basically couldn't tell that it was the first time she had done it. Ibu too, I have never seen him do such a ritual during dinner, but now he has done it, and even eats like a real gentleman.

After breakfast, Locke said goodbye to York on the pretext that he wanted to take the group out to see the scenery, and left the town with the group.

When leaving the town, Bai He, who was very sensitive to the atmosphere and the sight of others, could clearly sense what might be going on in the town. However, he is not a free person who can move at will, so naturally he can't follow what is going on in the town.

After about an hour of walking along the dirt road after leaving the town, an emerald green shadow finally appeared in the distance. This undoubtedly gave everyone a booster, but it would be more correct to say that it was everyone, rather than Hana, because she was the only one with the worst physical strength among the people present.

There's no way, except for Eevee, basically no one can ride a horse, how do you want them to get there, only walking.

If you walk, Eevee has been an adventurer, so it's no problem, the Locke siblings grew up in the countryside, and Mei Ou is also an orc. As for Bai He, don't forget that he lived in the wild in this forest for nearly a month more than a month ago, and naturally there was no problem at all. It's only Hana, she was a big lady who opened her mouth before she entered the academy, I'm afraid she hasn't walked as much as this time since she was born. However, Hana's personality is still somewhat strong, so she didn't show that tiredness at all, and just silently followed the team.

Like Hana, there is also Bai He, but what he endures is uneasiness and weakness. Although he knew that everyone's purpose might not have anything to do with him, Bai He was just weak-hearted. Don't forget that he's done a lot of things in the forest, and who knows if any of them have been exposed.

Thinking of being brought here inexplicably, Bai He's heart trembled even more. This has nothing to do with fear, it's just a lack of heart, like being asked by a parent if there is a child who lies.

But it's all here, Bai He has to wait and see what happens, it's a big deal that the fish dies and the net breaks out a bloody way, anyway, his strength has recovered somewhat now.

With each of them in mind, the group walked into the forest.

[Stop for a moment.] After entering the forest, the crowd stopped at the words of Eevee. Then Ibu looked around at everyone and spoke in a serious tone: "Do you remember the mission of the first two unlucky students I said earlier?]

Linda replied quickly, like a child in a hurry to perform.

[Yes, since the first search team sent back the news that they had found the whereabouts of those three people, I plan to use this as a clue.] 】

[In other words...... Follow this line to find the search team that disappeared for the first time?] It was Hana who answered Eevee this time, and just like she usually gave people the feeling of a good student, Hana quickly understood what Eevee meant.

[Yes, if nothing else, the first and second search teams all disappeared for the same reason.] Find one and you can find two. 】

[But...... The existence that can make these two search teams disappear without even sending a report......] Linda expressed her opinion and expressed her fear.

[Yes, the ...... that can wipe out the two search teams] Locke glanced at the surrounding woods.

【......... It's very likely that it is a high-level magical beast that escaped from the depths of Siona, isn't it?]
