Adventurer of the Elf World

Chapter 136 Wandering

Xiu knew who Dr. Omu was, so he didn't ask him pretentiously. Instead, he dealt with the food in front of him faithfully and showed the basic qualities of a cook.

But as soon as he took a few bites, two people came out from the kitchen, one was the proprietress, and the other was an ordinary middle-aged man who could only be the boss.

The man walked towards this side, observed the two of them first, and then said:

"Um~guest! I just heard that you are not satisfied with these dishes?"

Dr. Omu came to his senses and looked up at the man, with a strange look on his face.

"Why is it you? I remember..."

The man looked suddenly enlightened when he heard what Dr. Ohki said, and quickly asked:

"The guest hasn't been here for a long time, right?"

"It's been more than a year, almost two years~" Dr. Omu looked at the person in front of him, his tone was a little uncertain.

"That's right. I only took over this store this year. The previous chef was my father. There is still a gap between my skills and my father's. It is our mistake that the customers think the taste is not right."

As the man spoke, he glanced at the table and added: "Sir, you still remember that our store must be an old customer of my father's. I didn't entertain you well, so let's forget about this meal."

When the woman on the side heard this, she quickly tugged on the man's clothes and whispered: "They paid him."

"How can you lose money in business~" Xiu Ziran reacted and waved his hand casually, "The food is fine, there is no problem, so the money must be given."

Before the man could react, Xiu asked him:

"What about your father?"

"Died..." The man was silent for a moment, and then added: "I collapsed from exhaustion a year ago. We stayed with him in the hospital for a month, and finally left~"

"I'm sorry." Although Xiu had guessed it, he was more or less infected by the other person's emotions and felt a little sad.

"It's okay, guests can use it with ease."

After the topic ended, there was nothing more to say. The shop owner gave a slightly awkward greeting and turned around with his wife back.

Only then did Xiu look at Dr. Omu and greet him: "Dr., you have guessed it a long time ago, right?"

"Hmm~" Dr. Ohmu pondered for a moment and whispered: "This store has been here for more than thirty years. The taste has changed, and I am more or less uncomfortable with it."

Xiu could see it, and Dr. Omu probably guessed it right away. What he was struggling with was not the change of taste, but the change of things and people.

This kind of elderly people have special concerns.

The two came out of the store. Xiu was full, but Dr. Omu didn't eat much. He just ate a little, which was a little different from his usual appetite.

"Let's go, I'll take you back to the Elf Center first."

Xiu immediately reacted after hearing this and asked casually.

"Doctor, what's going on?"

"I'm going to visit some old friends...are you coming?"

Dr. Ohki looked a little depressed, which was very different from his usual image.

"I'm just taking a look around Joban City, so don't worry about me, Doctor."

After Xiu finished speaking, he walked towards the street without waiting for Dr. Ohmu's reply.

Although he is an assistant in name, he is actually a breeder, and his relationship cannot be said to be really good. It is undoubtedly a pain in the ass to attend those gatherings for the elderly now compared to the past.

After all, no one likes a stranger in the middle of a party with old friends.

Wander around the streets of the old city and look at the buildings with a special style and full of history.

Xiu felt as if he had traveled through time. The bustling streets at that time seemed to appear in front of him. People were coming and going, and their voices were mixed together, making it very lively.

It's just that these are gradually disappearing in the long river of history...

Walking along, Xiu didn't know how long he walked, the surrounding buildings began to become sparse, and the plants gradually evolved from artificially planted ornamental flowers and plants to normal vegetation.

Xiu knew that he was on the outskirts of Joban City.

However, he had no intention of returning and continued walking.

A large piece of grass appeared in front of him, extending to a small hillside in front of him.

This scene immediately reminded Xiu of the grassland in the park.

It's just that the grassland in the park is very lush. The grass can be as short as the calf, and in the most exaggerated place, it can be as tall as half a person. There are many strange elves hidden in it, and a few of them may pop out when you step down.

The grass here is very smooth, as if it has been specially trimmed.

There are no elves on it, only scattered humans.

Looking around, there are large and small blankets spread on the lawn. Most of these people are couples, families or friends coming to have a picnic or play together.

At this time Xiu Cai realized that he had been gone for a long time and it was already evening.

Of course, only big cities can have such a scene.

There are not so many idle people in ordinary towns. In other words, it is a matter of population ratio. Most of the people present are young and middle-aged people, who are the middle class and the main force of the city.

After Xiu came out of the woods, he stood on the edge of the grass and watched the people coming and going.

Another young man in bright clothes picked up the food in his hand and fed it to his girlfriend next to him. The two started to play around, laughing for a while.

Some children were running back and forth on the grass, and laughter like bells echoed in the sky.

There were several friends sitting around on the grass, talking to each other, with smiles on their faces.

Some parents were playing with their children on the grass, and there were trainers interacting with the Pokémons...

For some reason, Xiu suddenly felt a little tired, so he found a place to sit down and just watched those people silently.

As time went by, he was a little dazed by the scene in front of him, but soon he reacted, and the smile on his face seemed a little helpless.

"Sure enough, I'm not suitable..." Xiu muttered to himself, then looked up, his eyes directly across the entire grass.

After a while, he stood up and walked in the direction he came from.

Just when he was about to go out, a voice called him.

"Hey! Little brother." A slightly mature voice called Xiu.

At first, Xiu didn't pay attention, but the continuous voices still drew his attention.

"Huh?" Xiu was a little surprised, turned his head and looked behind him, only to see a thin middle-aged man smiling at him.

The man was dressed casually, and there were two people beside him. One was a woman dressed in ordinary clothes. The woman was very pretty. Although she looked a little old due to the vicissitudes of life, she must have been a beauty when she was young.

As for the little girl in a princess dress next to the man, she had delicate features, like a doll, but she was also thin and small, giving people a very weak feeling.
