Brown Street Grocery Store

  Roy, who was sitting in the corner of the lecture theater, seemed a little distracted. After all, being targeted by Naga killers was not a pleasant thing.

  Roy didn't pay much attention to the historical events elf Princess told on the stage.

  He just opened the book and placed it casually on the table. He originally wanted to write down the key points with a pen, but found that the Ophelia teacher talked more than what was written in the book...

  He was sitting in a chair, thinking about what happened recently.

  First, in addition to witnessing the murder of Jefferson in the tavern, and later unexpectedly knowing that it was the elf thief Peleus who stole the Holy Grail, there seemed to be nothing else except these two things. There is no way someone would do it behind his back because of these things. Ask a Naga killer to come over and kill a witness to silence them…

  Or maybe it's because he often fishes at the beach. As a distant relative of fish, the Naga Killer transforms into a messenger of justice and revenge, sneaking ashore to chase him!

  If there are so many fishing boats in the port, it's not Roy's turn...

  'Fishing boat? '

  Divine light flashed in Roy's mind, and then he thought of the Naga killer's eyes, and several human sailors had died recently.

  Could it be that Naga Killer mistook himself for a human sailor? Why would he kill himself on the street?

  Roy found that the answer may lie in this. During the process of assassinating himself, the Naga killer obviously had a great reaction to the port terminal and the sea ship.

  As time went by, the light coming from the glass windows of the lecture theater also moved secretly. The elves who were originally basking in the sun had already sat in the shade, but Roy, who was sitting in the corner, was slowly exposed to the sun. Down.

  sun shone brightly and dazzling.

  Although Roy kept quiet and lowered his head, he seemed extremely unremarkable.

  But when he was exposed to the sun, he was still recognized by Princess Ophelia at a glance.

  Princess Ophelia's eyes stopped on Roy.

  "That classmate!"

  Princess Ophelia said to Roy.

  The eyes of all the elves in the lecture theater almost fell on Roy in this brief moment, but Roy was distracted...

  However, this state only lasted for two seconds before Roy was awakened by everyone's gaze.

  Later, Roy discovered that Princess Ophelia was staring at him calmly.

  Roy quickly stood up from his seat, looking towards Princess Ophelia with a confused look on his face, grumbled inwardly in his heart: Doesn't this Elf Princess never ask questions in class? Why did he suddenly call me?

  The most important thing is that Roy didn't even hear what Ophelia Princess just said.

  "This classmate, please tell me, which ELF country was the Wurzman area divided into after the ELF dynasty split?"

  "..."

  How did Roy know about the Wurzman area? He had never heard of this name before, and he had just flipped through this modern history book in the past few days. At least there was nothing about Wurzman in the first fifty pages of the book. Records from the Caman area.

  "Sorry, I just got distracted."

  Although it was a bit embarrassing, Roy could only say it to himself.

  Princess Ophelia looked at Roy calmly, and her eyes stayed on his face for three seconds before saying:

  "Sit down, concentrate one's mind and listen to the lecture carefully, otherwise I will directly sentence you to retake this course."

  Roy was a little dumbfounded and responded quickly:

  "Got it, teacher!"

  After obediently and honestly sitting down, there were still other elf students who kept peeking at Roy. Everyone knew that Princess Ophelia would never ask questions in public, but this time she not only proposed changes in teaching methods before class. Suggestion, a student was also asked a question in class...

  Everyone looked towards Roy, secretly guessing what the background of this human-looking student was, but he was actually called up by Princess Ophelia to answer a question.

  …

  At noon, Roy did not see Steve and his friends again.

  He came to the entrance of the Academy and took a long carriage to the intersection of Brown Street. By this time, the fog on the seaside had completely dissipated, and there were not many pedestrians on Brown Street.

  The sun was shining brightly at noon, and water vapor was steaming from the beach in the distance, making it look like the air was severely distorted.

  The stone floor was even a little hot for your feet. There were some large sailing ships moored at the port not far away. Although the sails had been rolled up and tied to the lowest horizontal mast, the erected mainmast and various other poles were And countless hanging ropes make these large ships look extremely messy.

  The most eye-catching thing among them is a dark five-masted sailboat, which is parked in the deep water.

  Perhaps because of the deep draft, the height difference between the deck and the pier is less than five meters. You can see that many crew members are washing the deck with sea water...

  When passing by the entrance of the pharmacy, the night saber, who was lying in the shade at the door to enjoy the coolness, flicked its tail and slithered back into its small den with little ventilation.

  Roy almost stumbled on the protruding stone slab. He took a few steps forward and barely stood still...

  Then he turned around and saw the grocery store next to the pharmacy. Almost half of the items in this grocery store were related to fishing gear. Roy bought the fishhooks and fishing lines he usually used from here.

  The boss of the grocery store also likes fishing. According to him, he has never been in the air force since he went to sea. It was he who taught Roy the fishing skills in the first place.

  At that time, Roy only bought a fishhook and a few meters of fishing line. Even so, Boss still closed the shop very enthusiastically, took Roy to the beach, and taught him step by step how to dig for sandworms and how to tie the line for hanging. bait...

  This grocery store is only open seven or eight days a month, and the boss is almost always out fishing at other times.

  Probably because of the heavy fog this morning, the grocery store boss was unable to go to sea today.

  When Roy walked into the grocery store, he saw Boss carving a small wooden fish. He was the darkest mixed-race elf Roy had ever seen. The color of his skin was close to that of coffee with milk, and because he was wearing a scarf under his neck, he would An obvious white circle appears...

  "Good afternoon, Duke!"

  The boss of the grocery store saw Roy walking in and immediately asked with a smile:

  "Oh, Roy, what do you want to buy this time?"

  Roy knew the grocery store very well.

  Grocery Store Boss Duke has always planned to let Roy help him look after the store, so that he can be completely liberated, and then go out to sea on a big boat to catch bigger fish...

  However, this plan was sternly rejected by Ms. Belinda.

  "This big hook."

  Roy said, pointing to the largest fishhook in the grocery store, about as thick as a pinky finger.

  This type of fishhook can be used as a meat hook without any problem...

  "Are you going overseas to make a big deal?" The boss of the grocery store immediately became energetic and asked Roy.

  Then he immediately realized something was wrong and quickly stopped Roy:

  "Last time Mrs. Winnie blocked the door of my house and specifically told me not to sell the big fishhook, because she was very worried that you would hang her little K on the light pole at the street corner."

  Roy immediately assured:

  "Don't worry, Duke, I promise I won't do anything to her kitten this time. Brown Street has always been uneasy recently. I plan to make a ground thorn trap near my home."

  Duke, the boss of the grocery store, didn't ask Roy what kind of sting trap he wanted to make. He was relieved when he heard that Roy said it wasn't for the night saber in the pharmacy next door.

  "Oh, that's good, that's good! I also heard that a Naga killer appeared on the beach. I usually go to sea, so it is easy to meet some Naga people at sea. All the Nagas I have seen are It's warm and gentle..."

  Roy simply didn't want to hear the story about him and the Naga mermaid girl having a water fight on the reef island, so he took the big fishhook and turned around and walked outside.

  Duke, the boss of the grocery store, quickly shouted to Roy:

  "Hey...hey! Roy, the sun is so bright outside...you can't go fishing at this time. Sit down and chat with me, and drink some ice-cold grapefruit tea!"

  Roy waved his hand and responded to Duke:

  "I have something to do in the afternoon, let's wait another day."

  …

  After walking out of the grocery store, he walked directly to the door of the temple.

  Yesterday, Jasper was on duty at the gate, and today it was Abt. Through the open wooden door of the porter, Roy saw Abt sitting in the porter praying.

  This guy has become very hardworking since he saw Roy promoted to Level 2 trainee priest...

  Without disturbing him, Roy opened the side door and walked into the vestibule of the temple. In the pool in the center of the courtyard, the statue of Liberty Goddess still stood there. Unfortunately, Goddess's Holy Splendor could not shine on the elf continent...

  When he saw Priest Andyson, his face was no longer as pale as before.

  He was sitting on the edge of the pool, looking like he was soaking his feet in the pool, and he was looking at the statue of Goddess in a daze.

  He looked a little decadent. Roy thought of the previous gatherings at Heaven Temple. Since the light of Goddess could not shine on the elf continent, how on earth did the holy water in the pool be obtained?

  Seeing Priest Andyson's appearance, Roy seemed to have guessed the answer.

  When passing by Father Anderson, Roy saluted seriously, but Father Anderson did not respond at all...

  Priest Andyson's mental state appeared to be very bad.

  Roy walked around the cypress wall and came to the backyard of the temple. He changed into the trainee priest's robe and went to the study room.

  Jasper happened to be praying in the study room and stopped when he saw Roy coming.

  High Priest Reed was listening to a believer confessing the sins of his life over there in the confessional.

  Priest Theodore is still not in the temple.

  Jasper said that Priest Theodore was invited by the elf nobles in the city to perform a purification ceremony.

  "Jasper, can you help me heal again?"

  Roy lifted up the trainee priest's robe, letting him see the bandages wrapped around his chest and abdomen.

  Jasper stared wide-eyed, his anger suddenly rushed to the top of his head, he stood up, faced Roy, grabbed his shoulders with both hands, and said angrily:

  "...Why are you so seriously injured again? Roy, you can't be silent this time. You want to announce their crimes in the elf Academy..."

  The injury on Roy's shoulder was pinched by Jasper, and it hurt so much that Roy almost came out.

  He quickly broke away and said to Jasper:

  "Jasper, listen to me first. In the morning, I met a Naga, and these injuries were all caused by him..."
