[Sword] Prejudice

"The straw rich man said that a child exchanged straw for three oranges, and then a pregnant woman was very thirsty and wanted to leave and gave the child three pieces of cloth. At this time, a general passed by and the horse suddenly fell down, and the general left angrily. The entourage thought the horse was dead, so the child exchanged two pieces of cloth for the horse, fed some water and the horse came back to life, the child continued to walk, passing a farm, the farmer asked the child to borrow a horse for an urgent matter, and asked him to see it early Go to the farm and say that if he doesn't come back, the farm will belong to the child. The farmer didn't come back, and the child finally became a rich man through his own efforts, right?" Lena racked her brains to recall this childhood story.

"But there seems to be something missing..." Kirito showed a puzzled expression, looking distressed.

"It's the Gadfly. The child tied the Gadfly with straw and was mistaken for a commoner's toy by a child from a rich family, so he told his family that he wanted the commoner's toy, and he got it with three oranges." Meizi said in an unusually flat and indifferent way. Sound added.

"Yes, then we should go to the bull monster. Let me see where the bull monster is..." Lina, who said that the wind is the rain, took out the map and began to search for the location, showing that she was working hard.

Kirito discovered a little more, he felt Meizi's indifference which was different from usual, as if this well-known fairy tale in Japan had some unspeakable meaning to her.

Meizi noticed Kirito's gaze, she shook her head to indicate that she was fine, but found that Kirito was still staring at her stubbornly, Meizi sighed, signaled with her eyes to Lina who was studying the map seriously, and said, "I'll talk about it later, Now get the job done."

After noticing that Kirito didn't look at her like he did just now, Meizi laughed a little. She looked at the baby face that didn't seem to have the slightest attack power, and thought that his temper really wasn't what he showed at all. In that way, the temper is simply as smelly and hard as a rock.

At this time, because Kirito wanted to know more about Meizi, and Lina was too slow, he went forward to find the possible location of the Gadfly on this floor.

Lina was more excited. This was the first time that Kirito took the initiative to get so close to her. Usually, he always grasped the angle and the right distance. Except for saving her at the beginning, there would be no physical contact. If not for later She tried her best to build a good relationship with Meizi and wanted to go to the front with her, but Meizi refused to entrust her to Kirito's care, and she might never get close again.

But it doesn't matter, Lina has always been a patient person, you see, isn't she getting closer to Kirito now, when she was on the front line, she was the one who was taken care of, and she is confident that she will not be much worse than anyone else , including Asuna, including Plum.

Women's own strength is not enough to make people submit, and why should women's own strength be measured by the same standard as boys? What about the weight you lift, how come you start from the same starting line when it comes to work and so on?

Lena couldn't understand and didn't want to understand at all, so she just did what she wanted.

"There should be nothing wrong here." Kirito said, pointing to the southwest corner on the map.

Lina recovered from her own thoughts, she looked at the position Kirito was pointing at, and she made a very excited look, because she had looked for it just now, and the position Kirito was looking for was not the same. The difference was too big, so Lina looked at Kirito with an expression of admiration without any pressure, as if he was super powerful.

Being watched by such a tangible gaze, Kirito felt a little embarrassed.

But Meizi saved Kirito who didn't know what to do, she said: "Then let's go, this task is still time-limited, isn't it?"

"Yes, let's go." After Kirito found the steps, he immediately walked forward as if fleeing, without even turning his head, just leaving Lina behind, of course including the slow one plum.

When Lina realized it, Kirito had already walked very fast. She glanced at Meizi with some doubts, and weighed it up in her heart. In the end, she didn't turn her back, and instead stretched out her hand to hook Meizi's arm, wanting to go with her Walk.

Meizi also didn't notice at all and let Lina hook her, as usual.

After the three successfully completed the task of the Gadfly, they found a problem. How could they meet the legendary child from a wealthy family and exchange for three oranges?

"Maybe we can go to [Starting Town], because there are more children there." Lina suddenly suggested.

Kirito pondered for a while and came up with this answer. He asked Lena who made the suggestion, "It's an interesting guess, but is it really possible for this kind of NPC mission to have a connection with the player? And although it's not unheard of Cross-layer mission, but so far, as far as I know, this is the first time."

"But... when it comes to the child, it's probably the most likely place, that church." Lena argues.

"I don't think it's very likely. After all, it's unlikely that a child from a rich family lives in a church, right?" Meizi retorted to Lina after thinking about it.

She was quite reasonable when Kirito said it, but after Meizi refuted it, Lina started to play tricks, she said: "I just think it might be there, go and have a look? Maybe there is a clue, okay? Well, Plum Sauce!"

plum:"……"

Kirito saw Meizi who had no choice but to take Lina, and knew that she had fallen. Although the possibility of still insisting on that was very low, the minority obeyed the majority. In the end, Kirito and Meizi Lina went together 【Starting Town】.

The transfer gate square in the starting town is quite spacious, enough to accommodate [-] players when it started operating two years ago.

In the center of the circular space with the stone floor, stood a huge clock tower, and below it was a transfer door that swayed with blue light.

The concentric circles and slender flower beds surrounding the tower extend outwards, with several elegant white benches lined up in the compartments.It's not surprising that there are some noisy players everywhere in the afternoon when the weather is good like this.But all the figures I saw were moving towards the transfer gate or the exit of the square, and almost no one stopped or sat on the bench.

If it is a large-scale street on the upper level, the transfer gate plaza is always crowded with countless players coming and going.Some people chatted everywhere, some recruited team members, and some set up simple stalls for sales, and it was almost impossible to move forward in a straight line because of the crowds gathered.

At this time, a fruit fell from the sky.

Meizi happened to see it, so she reached out and grabbed it in her hand. This fruit looks very pleasing and round, and it also tempts people to eat it, but if you completely follow your own mind, even this If she didn't have any precautions, Meizi probably died a long time ago and couldn't die anymore, because if she ate fruits casually in the wild and caused a negative BUFF, it would be the worst thing that couldn't be worse.

But at this time, Lina reached out and snatched the fruit, and took a big bite under the shocked eyes of Meizi and Kirito, and there was a crisp "click" sound of shattering.

"Lina!" Meizi paid attention to Lina, and was relieved to find that she didn't have any negative BUFF light effects, and said, "Don't eat this kind of thing that I don't know what it is."

"I know what this is, why can't I eat it." After Lina finished speaking, she took another big bite rashly.

At this time, Meizi showed a puzzled look in her eyes, and then she looked at Kirito on the other side to make sure that this was not a secret that only front-line players knew, but what she got was a similarly confused shrug.

"Pfft," Lina showed a cute smile, "Xing told me, Kirito, you should know that too, Xing actually doesn't want to leave the safe zone at all."

Kirito thought for a while, and was completely unlucky to tell him this memory, shook his head, and focused on Lena again, waiting for her to reveal the truth of the matter.

"This fruit is produced on the street tree, but because the street tree is an object that cannot be destroyed, even if you climb up, not to mention the fruit, you can't even pick a leaf, so Plum sauce, your luck is really good. Just stood here for a while, and Wukeer fell from the sky." Lina suddenly praised Meizi.

"Eh? That is to say, this fruit can be sold for five cols?" Meizi, who was called suddenly, answered Lina's words.

"That's right, Xing told me at that time that she didn't want to go out of the town at all, because she was very afraid of death, even when she knew that she would be well protected, she was still afraid, so even if she could only stay in the town's tree It’s good to sit down for a day and pick up a few fruits that can sell for five kole, and this.” Lina raised the half-eaten fruit in her hand and said, “It’s the fruit she said.”

plum:"……"

Kirito seemed to think that Yue Ye's black cats were also depressed, so he didn't pay more attention to the very "cheap" fruit.

"What's the matter with you? Are you not curious at all? As far as I know, many people on the first floor say that they can only live today because of this." Lina was a little puzzled by the silence of the two people, so she asked.

"Everyone has their own way of choosing, I don't think it's worth talking about." Meizi said very officially.

Kirito also answered very reasonably: "I think Keita and the others will definitely protect her well now."
