Chapter 39, Prediction of danger
Marilu's brother doesn't care whether his sister is okay or not. The water floating board is the most important thing now.
Hearing Uncle Sulip talk about the water floating board, it was like finding a glimmer of hope amid disappointment.
(God’s perspective: Generally, elves who are still in their infancy do not yet have the discerning ability of adult elves.)
"Really, Uncle Sulip, you know the water float!"
Sulip continued to smile:
"Yeah, cute little guys, come with me. Uncle will take you to find a floating board, and then we can all eat delicious food together and have a good time~"
Marilu was a little excited, but Lulili still jumped a little behind her brother and asked:
"Then let me ask Uncle Sulip, where is the water floating board?"
Ah, this...
Faced with the sudden question, Sulip's thoughts turned rapidly and he tried his best to make up a series of words, almost leaking the information:
"exist……"
"Where are you from?"
"Coming to the Thorny Cliff, yes, it's the Thorny Cliff!"
Sulip said more and more:
"Actually, it's hard to talk about this uncle. You all know it's more dangerous there."
"But don't worry, little ones, it'll be okay if your uncle is here. Your uncle's home is nearby. We will find the water floating board soon. How about this time?"
The two little guys believed Sulip's words more and more, and even nodded.
"Um!"
"Um!"
【!】However, in the next moment, Charmander and Pikachu hurriedly arrived!
"Wait a minute, you two little guys!"
Marilu and Lulili turned around instantly, and Pikachu hurriedly stuffed the thorn fruit into Marilu's place. Fortunately, he didn't go too far on the way.
A small tree fruit was given to Marilou and his sister for free. The two children were very puzzled.
"Please take this prickly fruit as a token of appreciation from our Starry Night Expedition Team. Go back and make soup for mom."
"Wow, thank you~"
The Marilu brothers and sisters expressed their gratitude to Pikachu and Charmander. Of course, Pikachu was very happy. He likes to help children the most.
But Charmander always stared at Sulip alertly.
It was obvious that this Sulip was strange.
Not to mention that he had deliberately struck up a conversation with two young elves before, and just a moment ago, Charmander had captured a moment when the corners of Sulip's mouth rose.
Charmander suddenly became serious:
"May I ask you are……"
Sulip politely replied:
"I'm a passing professional hypnotist, and of course I'm as happy to help other elves as you are."
Then he got a little panicked and decided not to continue the awkward conversation, but chose to turn around and leave:
"I'm thirsty, so be it,"
"You two little guys, remember to come to Shumao's house to find your uncle. Your uncle is waiting for you."
Marylou + Lulili are particularly polite:
"Thank you Uncle Sulip, goodbye~"
————Chat-up dividing line————
At first glance, Sulip looked strange, especially with his greasy belly. He was not a good elf. Charmander felt that it was extremely dangerous for the two children to strike up a conversation with a strange elf.
Considering various factors,
So Charmander used the unique tone of human beings to check their household registration, and asked casually:
"Two little guys, what did Uncle Sulip say? Can you tell my elder brother?"
Mary Lou: "Uncle is very nice. He wants to take us to the thorn cliff to find the water slab."
"They also said that we are the back wave and are going to show us the good news~" Lu Lili jumped happily.
What are you talking about, why are you still making waves?
It's obvious that he's trying to trick the kids with a lollipop. Well, he's probably a liar!
"Listen, I can't believe that uncle. You must not go!"
Charmander's sudden seriousness completely frightened the two children, and even Pikachu was surprised:
"Hey, what's wrong with you, Charmander?"
"Why did you suddenly say such things!"
Marylou siblings:
"Is big brother angry?"
Charmander said that it was too late to explain anything. He had an ominous sixth sense now, so he had to express his position as follows:
I'm very sorry. Anyway, my tone was a little more serious when I was anxious, but my intuition is not wrong. There is something wrong with that Sulip, there is definitely something wrong!
I must warn these two children who can’t tell right from wrong yet!
Keep them away from that bad uncle!
Soon, the Marilou siblings realized that they had been out for a little too long.
Besides, they were out for a little too long. If they don't go back to make soup for their mother, her condition will get worse.
So Marylou finally said politely:
"Thank you for your help, big brothers. My sister and I must go back soon. I will think about it carefully according to my brother's responsibilities."
Forehead.
"Then we should go back, Lulili~"
Lulili was very obedient and followed closely behind Marylou without forgetting to say goodbye to the two little ones:
"Okay~"
"Goodbye then, Brother Pikachu, Brother Charmander."
Looking at the Marilu brother and sister gradually going away, Charmander always felt a little uneasy.
Maybe there was something wrong with the Sulip who just chatted with them. In short, his sixth sense told him that nothing good was going on.
Pikachu just thought Charmander was acting strange today, this was not his usual self.
"Charmander, you seem to be worrying too much. Everyone in Treasure Town is very kind. Why does Sulip have a problem?"
Hey, that's what it says,
But for a moment, I saw the corner of Sulip's mouth raised, and it felt like he was smiling evilly, with extremely evil intentions in mind.
Pikachu also recalled it,
But according to the encyclopedic knowledge he has mastered, an elf like Sulip is born like that.
To put it simply, Sulip's usual appearance is that his mouth is slightly raised, and his eyes are naturally squinted.
In particular, the khaki elephant trunk and body shape are a bit ugly. These are Sulip's natural appearance without plastic surgery, and there is nothing to doubt.
Charmander hesitated and sighed:
"Ah, am I worrying too much? Pikachu seems to be right. Sulip was born with a bad appearance."
Pikachu: "That's not bad. Anyway, Sulip will never change!"
"Let's go back quickly, Charmander, we've been out for a long time!"
So the two little ones set out to go back.
It is conceivable that Charmander and Pikachu wasted a lot of time during the purchase. As a result, the guild was reprimanded by the note parrot and almost did not even get the contribution reward.
Then the criticisms from Note Parrot followed one after another,
Why is such a simple purchasing task taking half a day? How efficient is your work?
Another example is, are you lazy? What's going on?
The previous buck-toothed raccoon was very slow, and the longest recorded time was 45 minutes. As a result, you little workers with extremely low abilities actually gave me an hour and a half?
In the end, the note parrot was so angry that he really didn't want to talk about the two little ones anymore:
"Forget it, I have to hurry up and present the delicious apples to President SAMA. You two little workers really opened my eyes!"
[Ding, the two little ones still received a 50-point contribution reward, which can be regarded as completing the third training task. 】
However, the note parrots did not know the joy of helping other elves. Both of them thought they were doing the right thing.
Guys, do you think Charmander and Pikachu did the right thing?
And is that Sulip suspicious?
the light of righteousness,
Shining on this earth——
The suspicious Sulip became the main target of Charmander's suspicion. It was another busy day. Today I felt that it was getting dark even though I was busy. Fortunately, there were no strange monsters waiting for me on the roadside. Ahem, thank you very much at the end.
