Chapter 148

"By the way, where is the little girl?"

"Um?"

Fei Miao tilted his head, and then pointed at the box next to the mast.

Rin stepped forward and took a look. Sure enough, there was a little loli hiding in the opened box.

She was still holding a book tightly in her hand, and there were still traces of tears on her face.

"This guy didn't read all night, did he?"

Glancing up at the light hanging on the mast, Rin turned off the light.

Just as he was about to reach out and take the book back, Betty was suddenly awakened. She clutched the book tightly and looked at Rin warily, her purple eyes glowing with a faint light.

At that moment, Rin felt as if the air around him was stagnant, and the temperature quickly dropped to freezing point.

Fei Miao suddenly pulled Rin behind him, and his long sword appeared in his hand.

But just as she took out the long sword, the cold breath suddenly disappeared without a trace. Betty rubbed her eyes and said confusedly: "Good morning, everyone."

As she spoke, she stretched and wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth, looking very cute.

It was as if the momentum I felt before was all an illusion.

Of course Rin wouldn't really think it was his hallucination. He didn't look at the hero and felt something was wrong. Did he stand in front of him?

"Young lady who doesn't talk much, what's going on?"

Fei Miao looked at her seriously for a while, then turned to look at Rin. After making eye contact with Rin for a few seconds, he withdrew his sword.

"No, just now, I suddenly felt a dangerous aura."

"It's an illusion."

Betty climbed out of the box, but fell to the ground. She stood up slowly, said "I'm sorry" and returned to her quiet appearance.

Rin hasn't recovered yet.

There are more and more doubts about Betty. What is certain is that there is definitely something hidden.

According to the book, the Observation Eye of the Brave will be upgraded once more, so it is not a complete version at the moment.

But even so, there weren't many things that could be hidden from her eyes.

If Fei Miao could see her problem, he would have told himself about it long ago. If he didn't say anything, it meant that the observing eye couldn't see any problem.

Can it be hidden from the observing eye...

Rin felt that if you can, don't provoke him, and just wait until you get to Beach City to go your separate ways.

Damn it, if this is really a big boss, I won’t settle the score for what I taught her last night, right?

Betty didn't react at all, picked up the book and handed it to Rin.

"By the way, I'll give this book back to you. I've already read it."

"Ah...ok."

Rin took back the book and acted as if nothing happened. Although Fei Miao's vigilant behavior before seemed very abrupt, but... this girl didn't show anything, so let's just treat it as a tacit understanding.

He took the book absentmindedly, but heard Betty ask.

"The last one I wrote is to be continued, so is there a next one?"

Rin glanced at the title of the book. He didn't pay much attention to it when he picked it up. Now looking at the title... it's so weird.

Does anyone really want to see this stuff?

"It should be there. Doesn't it say it's the first volume? Do you want to see it? I only have this one."

Betty smiled and said in a calm voice: "No, I just want to know what kind of confidence it is that allows the author to plan to publish the next film."

"?"

"I can only say that the writing is good, but don't force it next time."

Keep smiling and say mocking words in the calmest tone.

At this moment, Rin suddenly realized that she still had a lot to learn.

Emilia also asked strangely: "So, the writing is not good?"

"I can't say it's bad. It's just that the heroine's character is incomprehensible, which is acceptable. However, the further you get to the back, the faster the car speeds, and the character plot starts to become thin."

"How should I put it? Relying on vehicle speed to attract people is certainly useful, but it is difficult to reach the level of a masterpiece."

Seeing her very professional comments, Rin murmured to himself: "I don't know why, but I always feel like an author who fishes during the day and updates in the middle of the night seems to have been hit by an arrow in the knee."

"In short, there is still a lot of room for growth, but before the growth is complete, I don't want to watch it anymore."

"You sound like you know a lot about novels."

"I know a thing or two. Although people... although the novels here are different from those at home, they are more wild and unrestrained, but we reach the same goal through different paths."

Seeing her stinky look, Rin wanted to reply, "If it's okay, go ahead, but if not, don't do it."

However, when I thought of the dangerous aura before, I still swallowed the words on my lips.

Betty, on the other hand, seemed to be aware of what he wanted to say, and replied seriously: "But I still want to thank it for giving me the interest in writing novels."

"Ah, okay, okay, okay, you can do whatever you want."

After a few perfunctory responses, Rin took out a sandwich and handed it to her: "You'd better eat your fill first."

"Thank you for your kind brother. Of course, I will prove that I am better at it."

Lin twitched the corner of his mouth and resisted for a long time, but in the end he couldn't hide his French mocking face, but he didn't say anything and took Fei Miao to the other side to have breakfast.

While eating breakfast, the small whaler began to retrieve its anchor and set sail again.

…

The next afternoon, the ship arrived at the dock in Beach City as scheduled.

After paying the docking fee and walking on the stone road leading from the dock to the city, Rin looked at the town buildings for a while, but soon lost interest.

Beach City looks worse than Coral City. The roads are dirty and messy, there are old blue buildings everywhere, and there are potholes and pools everywhere.

The salt production here uses a relatively common simple alchemy, in which a cheap medium material is used, which will produce a large amount of waste gas to pollute the air, which is similar to the industrial revolution of Blue Water Star.

Today, the sky is gloomy and hazy, and the whole city has a smell of decay.

When approaching the city, I found that the sky began to darken. Rin thought it was going to rain, but I learned from the helmsman that this was the case in Biqi City.

It’s just that the waste gas produced by the medium is not very diffusive, so it will only stay above Biqi City and not spread far outward.

So it looks like there is only a huge dark cloud over the town.

"Don’t stay in Biqi City for too long, leave tomorrow."

Rin made a decision quickly.

The helmsman who followed them timidly hurriedly moved forward, begging on his face.

"Master Lin... Can I get out of here now?"

"Why are you in such a hurry? We still need the boat. Go and replenish the energy on the boat later."

The helmsman immediately fell down, looking sad and dejected. He hesitated for a long time but still didn't dare to say anything, not even asking for money.

"Hurry up and get out of here. Don't forget the three-day heartbreak powder."

Touching the wallet in his arms, the helmsman could only grit his teeth and trot off to do his job.

"Then I'll take my leave too. See you again if we're lucky."

Betty nodded and said goodbye to the two of them. Without waiting for Lin to say anything, she turned around and left with the crowd.

The time bomb was gone, and Lin was relieved. He took the waste cat to find a hotel.

At Emilia's strong request, Lin could only reluctantly open a luxury room.

Up to the second floor, with the room key, he just opened the room, and before he had time to close the door, the brave man immediately took off his cloak and grabbed his tie impatiently to kiss him.

Lin scolded angrily while closing the door.

Neither of them noticed that a man carrying a sack passed by and stared at them with wide eyes. He waited until the door was closed, and then ran away.

…

Star Orbiter Islands, Nameless Village.

A fishing boat docked at the shore, and a middle-aged man with blue hair jumped off, waiting to unload the harvest with the people on the same boat.

A strong man ran towards this side panting.

While running, he shouted.

"Brother! Your daughter... the brave man is back! And brought your son-in-law back!"

Some excitement and complex emotions flashed across the middle-aged man's face, and soon calmed down, with a little confusion.

"Son-in-law? What son-in-law?"

"I saw the hero check into a room with a young boy! It must be your son-in-law."

Chapter 67: Xiao Lin will never do anything to let me down

Stepping on the soft carpet, Lin felt happy, wiped his wet mouth, and rushed to the bathroom with high spirits.

While the useless cat was still standing there, he quickly locked the bathroom door and breathed a sigh of relief.

If a troublesome stinky cat came in, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to take a good shower for an hour.

The heroes of this year are too lame. They don't think about how to improve themselves all day long, but just kiss.

With this kind of character, even if they are 17 years old, it's still a question whether they can reach level 35. What kind of demon king can they defeat?

After ravaging the hero's cat ears a hundred times in his heart, Lin took a shower and curled up comfortably in the bathtub.

I felt that the sleepiness and fatigue of the past few days were all swept away, and my mood tank was rising rapidly.

After taking a bath and changing clothes, Rin pushed Emilia into the bathroom and quickly closed the door.

He stood at the door and listened for a while, and heard the sound of the shower coming from inside. Rin tiptoed to the desk with a smug smile.

He put the male and female textbooks handed to him by Shaye on the table and prepared to study seriously.

He just didn't believe it. With his talent in learning, he couldn't learn from it and surpass the bad student hero at one time?

Didn't you see that he used that rhythm kiss to deal with the useless cat just now, and the effect was also super good?

Spreading out the notebook, Rin picked up the pen and subconsciously wanted to copy the key points, but just after writing a word, he suddenly realized that it was wrong, knocked his head, and closed the notebook.

"My brain is really broken, how can I have the nerve to write down such things."

Muttering, Rin took a deep breath and began to study formally.

This is an explanation of the sensitivity of different curves and coordinate values, and there are even gesture diagrams.

Lin just glanced at it and felt a little embarrassed. He thought it was not good and slapped his face quickly.

It's just a few function curves. It's not like he hasn't seen them before. Silly Roe Deer and Waste Cat have looked at them several times. What's the big deal?

Yes, I don't want to be inferior to others and don't want to be bullied again!

That's right, I still write down the revenge of these girls one by one, and I will write down the particularly serious ones in a small notebook.

If you want to take revenge, you must become stronger and can't let the revenge become just talk.

In this way, I cheered myself up and my mentality was indeed much more stable. I officially started to study.

Half an hour later, Lin's ears moved and heard the sound of the door opening. She quickly put away the textbook and opened a book on elemental reactions.

At the same time, the bathroom door was opened, and Waste Cat stepped on the kitten bathroom slippers that Lin bought for her and walked out with a click.

I came to Lin as soon as possible and shook my head.

Rin naturally understood her brain waves and released an evaporation magic to dry the useless cat's wet little head.

"It's still early before the agreed letter time, let's go to the restaurant to eat something first."

"Hmm."

Emilia tilted her head, her blue eyes staring at Rin's face.
