Elf: Chosen Ranger

Chapter 101 The investigation begins. The story of Samboban
"Assistant? Me?"

Xia Ye looked at the camera in his hand and made a questioning sound.

"Well, isn't there Green Town nearby? You'll definitely find interesting scenery!" Sha Li patted Xia Ye's shoulders with both hands and pushed her face closer.

"So, come and take pictures, Xia Ye, it's just the right appetizer for the Mask-Making Festival! You can also learn about the story of Kitakami Township during the photo-taking process, so participating in the Mask-Making Festival will be more interesting!"

"Don't you like it? I thought you would understand the joy of photography." Shali drooped her head, showing a disappointed expression.

"No, I'm next. Please let me be your assistant." Xia Ye said sincerely.

Although he learned some knowledge about Beishang Township on the Internet, it is better to understand it in person to know more clearly. Sha Li's photography request was just a cover for his understanding of Beishang Township.

"I knew it!" Sha Li smiled broadly, then withdrew her arms and said, "Xia Ye, I'll leave it to you, then see you in the evening. I'm staying in a B&B. I'll send you the location directly on my phone. Bar."

Mobile phone Xia Ye suddenly thought that he didn't have a mobile phone at all, because he had traveled to ancient times before, and the time was uncertain, so the mobile phone as a modern technology could not play any role at all.

"Well, the sending is completed. I'll go now. I'll look forward to it~"

Shali once again showed a tired expression, then waved her hands and left the bus station with the Stricikati dog.

Xia Ye, who was holding the camera, showed a helpless expression. Okay, where should I go to find information on the Internet now?
Xia Ye sought help at the Green Town Civic Center. Although Beishang Township was remote, it was not without Internet access. Xia Ye, who successfully logged in to his alliance account, checked the message from Sha Li.

After remembering the location of Shali's B&B, Xia Ye suddenly came up with a bold idea. Can I learn about future information through myself in Sunset Forest?
After completing this time travel, I should know what happened during this time travel, and I can communicate with him on the public phone and take action in advance.

It always felt like cheating, but Xia Ye still dialed the public phone, but there was a voice on the phone saying that the number you dialed could not be connected temporarily, please try again later.

"This doesn't work. Ah, I understand. Having experienced this incident, I must have encountered the current situation. I see, this is a measure taken not to change this experience."

"So, it's better not to contact me. However, it's not bad to have such an unknown experience." Xia Ye hung up the phone and withdrew some money from his account as activity funds.

Moving in modern society is much easier if you have money.

The public hall provides accommodation services for tourists, and Xia Ye rented a room as a base for activities. Since he came to Beishang Township as a tourist, it was a bit strange to sleep in a tent outdoors.

When Xia Ye, who was holding a camera, was thinking about where to start taking pictures, the administrator of the public hall, a bald old man wearing glasses, came over.

With a kind face, he looked at the camera in Xia Ye's hand and asked:
"Mr. Tourist, do you want to take pictures?"

"Ah, yes, Mr. Administrator, do you know what attractions there are in Beishang Township?" Xia Ye asked. It is better to ask the locals for such places.

"Well, of course, these are the six most beautiful natural landscapes in Beishang Township!" The administrator showed a proud expression.

Recalling Sha Li's words, Xia Ye thought in his heart, well, compared to the natural scenery, it is better to understand the story of Beishang Township first.

"Ahem, I'm actually very interested in the historical stories of Beishang Township. To be honest, I came to Beishang Township for the Mask-Making Festival, but there doesn't seem to be much description of the story behind it on the Internet," Xia Ye said regretfully.

"Well, it's almost time for the Mask-Making Festival. I see, can perfecting the story behind it make it more attractive to tourists?" the administrator muttered in a low voice.

Seeing that the other party was lost in thought, Xia Ye waved his hand and called: "Mr. Administrator?"

"Oh, ahem, that's it." He touched his smooth head awkwardly, "You can first go to the Pokémon Plaza in the west of the village. There is an introduction board recording the heroic deeds of Pokémon!"

"And I also passed by our apple orchard in Beishang Township. Did you know that we have unique honey apples? You will never forget them once you eat them, so you must try them!" Honey apples are indeed delicious, etc. Wait, what is a companion Pokémon? I have never heard of it?

"Pokémon?"

"Ah, well, it's normal that you don't understand. They are the three heroic Pokémon who defeated evil spirits a long time ago and protected our village. Please read the specific story on the introduction card," the administrator said.

“Is there just one introductory card?”

"No, no, there are two more." The administrator walked towards the map on the wall, and then pointed to two locations. "The remaining two are located in Beishang Center and Paradise Wasteland. However, the distance is a bit far. It is recommended that you go to Baoban first. On the square.”

"Well, I understand. Thank you, administrator." Xia Ye thanked him.

"You're welcome, you're welcome, by the way, honey apple, you must try it!"

Then the administrator left with a smile, and Xia Ye also walked out of the public hall with his camera. He looked to the west and saw an orchard full of apple trees.

"Well, let's go then."

After leaving the public hall, Xia Ye tried to take a few photos with his camera, including Vulpix sitting with the old man basking in the sun, Gugu falling motionless on the roof, and dragonflies flying in the fields.

"Well, these aren't all Pokémon. They're not very good either. After all, taking pictures is about taking pictures of things you like." Xia Ye said, looking through the photos.

The little wild boar lying in the shade, Wubo with most of his body buried in the paddy field, the coyote dog barking on the roadside, the honey-wrapped bug on the low wall. Huh?
Xia Ye took off the camera, and sitting on the low wall with him was a young man wearing a white jacket. Isn't this one of the siblings he met at the bus stop?I remember it was called Wuli?

"Wow, sister, that guy actually ate all the candy apples, even though I was expecting so much," Wuli said to himself dissatisfied.

"Huh? Wow.!"

As if he realized that his complaints and gossip were overheard, he stretched out his arms in a panic, his center of gravity became unstable for a moment, and his whole body leaned back.

"Be careful!" Xia Ye grabbed his hand.

"Huh, I thought I was going to fall down. Thank you very much for that." Wuli thanked him in a low voice.

"It doesn't matter, it was my sudden appearance that scared you." Xia Ye said.

Wu Li jumped down from the low wall, and his eyes fell on the Thunder King Kong Ape.

"No, no, um, my name is Wuli, remember, we met on the bus. Well, sister, she doesn't mean any harm, please don't take it to heart."

"She is indeed your sister. By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Xia Ye, and I am investigating the story of Baoban."

"Xia Ye." Wuli repeated Xia Ye's name, "As for my dear companion, well, I'll take you there as a way of repaying Xia Ye for your help."

"Thank you very much." Xia Ye smiled, it would be best to have a local to lead the way.

Wuli raised his head and said, "Well, please come with me. Let's go to Baoban Square first because it's relatively close. Well, that's it."
