Chapter 323: First Negotiation with New Elido Officials
When Hoshimiya went to the Rabbit House to look for Keqing, Xiao and others.
At this moment.
Keqing and Xiao were not in the Rabbit House at all. Instead, they went to the restaurant in Guangying Plaza for a big meal at Nicole's invitation.
Between meals.
Nicole took the initiative to ask about their situation today: "How is it? I heard that you went to the cave again today. Did you encounter any high-level Yi Hai?"
Keqing nodded: "Yes."
Paimon said excitedly: "We encountered a lot of them. Xiao took a spear and defeated all the monsters one by one."
elf:"……"
Traveler: "..."
But Paimon was right, I did encounter a lot of them.
Since parting with Xing Jianya, they continued to go deeper into the cave and eliminated all the high-level skeletons in the cave.
This also means that the A37 void has officially entered its decline period.
After a tiring day in the cave, Paimon no longer wanted to talk about fighting monsters.
She happily looked at Aratake Ichito, Kuki Shinobu and others standing by and said with a smile, "Ichito, I never thought I would meet you here."
Meet the Traveler and Paimon again.
Arata Ichito was also very happy: "Before I came here, I went to Liyue to look for you. Tianquan Xing Ningguang said that you had already left in advance, so I knew I would meet you here. By the way, Paimon, Traveler, I have already discussed with Brother Billy that we will go to the video game arcade tomorrow. You can come and play with us."
Paimon wondered, "What is an arcade?"
Arata Ichito explained: "It's a place for fun, but I haven't been there either. Brother Billy said it's fun, so let's go check it out tomorrow."
There are fun things to do.
Of course Paimon would not refuse and agreed immediately.
After eating.
Paimon patted his bulging belly and flew in the air, swaying as if he might fall down at any time: "I'm so full. I haven't had such delicious food in a long time."
Nicole smiled and said, "Every time we in the Cunning Rabbit House finish a commissioned task, we will come here to have a feast. As long as you are willing to join the Cunning Rabbit House, there will be endless feasts in the future."
Hear this.
Paimon's eyes suddenly lit up: "Good idea."
Walnut laughed and said, "What's good about that? Once you join the Cunning Rabbit House, you can't leave here."
Paimon immediately shook his head: "That's not good..."
It was dark after dinner.
Everyone returned to the Cunning Rabbit House together.
Before he reached the door of the Cunning Rabbit House, Billy was surprised to find that there was a light at the door of the Cunning Rabbit House, and it seemed that there was a car parked there.
Could it be another car from the Sheriff’s Department?
The two sheriffs, Zhu Yuan and Qing Yi, come to the Cunning Rabbit House almost every day.
but.
After getting closer.
Billy was surprised to find that the other party was not from the Public Security Bureau, but Hoshimiya, whom he had met once before, and was from the Hollow Special Operations Department.
Why are they coming to the Rabbit House?
Just met.
Xing Jianya walked up to Keqing and said straight to the point, "Miss Keqing, after the commander of the headquarters learned that you suppressed the A37 void, he wanted to meet you and express his gratitude in person. Can you come with me to the headquarters?"
Hear this.
Keqing seemed to have expected this and was not surprised at all.
He agreed without saying a word.
It was so straightforward that Xing Jianya was a little surprised. She had thought it would take some effort.
but.
I can't go today.
Keqing said seriously, "Let's go tomorrow morning. I'll be waiting for you at the Cunning Rabbit House tomorrow morning."
This trip to the Anti-Void Special Operations Department headquarters to meet with senior local officials was Keqing's first contact with the officials of this world.
Such an invitation.
Of course Xing Jianya would not refuse, and immediately agreed readily.
but.
Facing Keqing and Xiao.
Xing Jianya couldn't help but ask the question in her heart: "I have never seen you in New Ailidu. Are you from the Outer Ring?"
Keqing pondered for a moment and said, "Outer Ring... I guess so..."
He had heard Su Li talk about the outer ring before.
In short.
According to the regulations of New Elido, areas outside the urban area are called the outer ring.
Then Liyue Harbor, which is very far away from New Aili, can certainly be regarded as the outer ring, so it is correct to say that they are from the outer ring.
Keqing added: "But the area we are in is not a ruin, so it should be different from the outer ring you mentioned."
Hear this.
Xing Jianya raised her eyebrows, a little surprised.
Could it be that in this world, besides New Eridu, the last refuge for mankind, there are other human cities?
Xing Jianya hesitated for a moment, but still asked: "Are you from another city?"
Keqing was stunned when she heard this and thought the question was a bit strange.
To New Eridu, Liyue Harbor is of course considered another city, but it feels weird to ask this question.
"We are from Liyue Harbor. As for other matters, we will explain them in detail when we meet tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll pick you up on time tomorrow."
Xing Jianya silently memorized the name of Liyue Harbor. It seemed that her guess was correct. In addition to New Eridu, there really were other cities.
Su Li, Keqing, Xiao and others are all powerful people from another city.
Think of this.
Xing Jianya's gaze became more solemn.
This would be a significant discovery for New Eridu, and for all humans living in the Inner and Outer Rings.
It will have a huge impact on New Ailidu.
On the way back to headquarters.
Xing Jianya sat in the co-pilot seat, took a deep breath and said: "If it is really as I think, then the two cities may be able to find a way to solve the void crisis by uniting..."
Yue Chengliu smiled and said, "It would be great if we could solve and suppress Hollow Zero."
The root of all void disasters is void zero.
As long as Void Zero is not resolved, there will be a continuous stream of void disasters erupting and new small voids will be born.
Let this continue.
Sooner or later the void will devour the world, and humanity will perish.
……
That night.
Keqing, the traveler and others, as well as Aratake Ito, Manye and others, all temporarily lived in the Cunning Rabbit House.
Apparently, there simply wasn't enough room.
So they had to squeeze together. Keqing and Ambi lived in one room, Kurumi and Nico lived in one room, Traveler, Nekomata, and Sawayu lived in one room, Billy, Manye, and Aratake Ito lived in one room...
As for Xiao, he took the initiative to choose Su Li.
Early the next morning.
According to the previous agreement, Billy went to the video game store with Ichito Arataki, Manye, Shinobu Kuki, the Traveler, and Paimon.
I originally planned to bring Zaoyou with me, but seeing that she was sleeping soundly, I decided not to.
Keqing and Xiao went to the Anti-Void Special Operations Department to negotiate with the city's officials.
