The date of the voucher was tomorrow, and Nethery didn't have much money on her, so she decided to find a place to stay for the night. But…
"Hey! You said there was no elf center here?”Nethery shouted in surprise," How could this be?”
"Because this is a port town. Most of the travelers will leave by boat on the day they arrive.”The sailor explained kindly," In addition, it's less than a day's journey from here to Withered Leaf City. Even if there's a need to go to the Fairy Center, we can still make it in time. That's why there's no Fairy Center here."”
" But it's already afternoon. By the time we get back to Withered Leaf City, it'll be late at night…" Nethery couldn't help but cry." We have to board the Saint Antonio at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. Wouldn't we have to rush here before dawn?"”
" I see..." The uncle thought for a moment." Then you'll have to stay in a hotel."”
Nethery had no choice but to run to the residential area to find a hotel. Although they found the hotel very quickly…
The signboard at the entrance read,"The lowest accommodation fee in the town is 50 yuan per day."
The total amount of money Nethery had was 40 yuan…
"Am I going to set up a tent in a city and sleep on the streets today?？”A crossdresser stood by the door of the hotel and scratched the wall with a sad face.
"Oh, right!" Nethery's eyes suddenly lit up." I can call my family to transfer the money!"”
Nethery quickly found a public phone booth. Yes, my home phone number is…yes…uh…
[I actually don't remember my home phone number…]
……
"Beep-beep-"
" Phew..." Nethery let out a long breath. Fortunately, she still remembered the phone number of Dr. Oki's research institute...
The call went through very quickly. On the screen of the video phone, Dr. Oki was using an alcohol lamp and a beaker to cook instant noodles.
"Ah, it's Nethery." When Dr. Oki saw Nethery, he happily greeted her and then skillfully put an egg into the beaker. "Why did you only contact me now? It's been so long without a call. Your father is very worried.”
" Ahahaha..." Nethery scratched her head in embarrassment." I was too excited when I went out for the first time, so I accidentally forgot..."
"Well, alright, let's not talk about this. Speaking of which, Nethery, how many badges did you get?”Dr. Oki asked with a smile. He broke another egg into the beaker and used chopsticks to break the egg while muttering,"To cook instant noodles, you need to put two eggs ~ One poached egg ~ One needs to be stirred ~"
" Uh..." Nethery looked at the instant noodles and felt hungry." I just got an orange badge in Dry Leaf City three days ago..."
"Oh, three then." Professor Damu nodded." This speed is not bad... but why don't you recruit more elves and send them to me? My grandson Xiao Mao has already tamed more than 20 little elves?”
" This…Ahaha…" Nethery laughed awkwardly. " I don't have the money to buy a sprite ball!"
He couldn't just say that he was carrying a dozen balls with him and not passing them to him.
"Eh?" Dr. Oki asked in surprise," Didn't your father give you pocket money?”
Nethery took two steps back so that Professor Damu could see her entire body.""Because of some accidents, I bought a set of clothes and a bicycle, so…"
" That's not right..." Dr. Oki frowned." Even so, you can't afford 20 yuan, right?"”
"Don't underestimate 20 yuan, doctor…hmm?”Nethery was about to complain when she was stunned." 20 yuan? Wasn't the Sprite Ball 100 yuan each?”
"That's the price for adults in the shops outside.”Dr. Oki looked disappointed." Trainers under the age of 16 only need to go to the Sprite Center to show their Sprite Illustrations to prove their identity, and they can buy the Sprite Ball at a discount of one-fifth of the price. Didn't I tell you about this?”
"..." Nethery stared at Dr. Damu expressionlessly.
"What, what's wrong?" Professor Damu felt a little guilty under Nethery's stare.
" Dr. Oki…" Purple-black gas was coming out of Nethery's body, and her voice sounded like she was possessed by a ghost." Please think back…On the day I set off…Did you really tell me about this?"”
"Hmm?" Dr. Oki rested his chin on his hand and looked up at the sky as if he was thinking. After a long while, he suddenly realized something and hit his palm."Oh, I remember now! You left in a hurry that day because you were late. I really forgot to tell you! Ahahaha…"
" Haha…Haha…" Under Nethery's ghostly gaze, Professor Damu's laughter grew softer and softer. "That…Nethery?"
" Dr. Damu!!" Nethery activated her berserk mode and pounced in front of the phone booth, her face almost touching the screen. "Do you know what kind of life I had when I didn't have a Fairy Center to stay in order to catch six fairies? Sleeping in a second-hand tent! Eat the discounted dry food, okay? Drinking water from a patched kettle! To think that I thought this was to train the will of a trainer! My poor little elves haven't had a full meal since they were subdued by me! All of them were malnourished!”
As Nethery spoke, she grabbed Geng Gui, who had just come out of the shadows to watch the show, and shoved him in front of the screen. She grabbed his head and tail with both hands and pulled him up and down."Look! Doctor, have you ever seen such a skinny Geng Gui?!”
" Nethery..." Dr. Oki laughed like he was crying." Calm down, Geng Gui is a spirit elf..."
"Big! Wood! Bo! Warrior!"
"Alright, alright, alright, I was wrong!" Dr. Damu put his palms together and apologized." I'll call Mr. Zhou Fang now and ask him to transfer the money to you..."
" That's all?!" Nethery's voice immediately became louder." I spent so much money! You've suffered so much!"
"Alright, alright!" Dr. Damu immediately surrendered unconditionally. "How about this? I still have a few high-level balls here. I'll send them to you along with the money later!”
After saying that, Dr. Damu hung up the phone. When the screen turned black, Nethery, who had a violent expression on her face, immediately calmed down and happily snapped her fingers.""Hehe, extortion successful."
Beep! [Acquired new characteristic: Increases 50% effectiveness when scaring others. (Your acting skills are enough to fool Miss Junsha!)）
Beep! Due to the update of Dr. Oki's popular science knowledge, the prices of items in the system store have been adjusted. Some items will be reduced by 80% if you have the Elven Illustrated Book.
Nethery didn't know whether to laugh or cry at the two messages.'So, not only did you trick me, you also tricked the system…'
After that, Nethery sat beside the phone booth and waited for Geng Gui's call while being " massaged ". Sometimes, Nethery would wonder what would happen if her original elf was a big tongue.
Five minutes later, the phone rang. Nethery instantly switched to her bitter mode.
"The 1000 yuan living expenses that Mr. Zhou Fang gave you and my 5 high-level balls have been sent out. They will be delivered in about 10 minutes. After that, you can pick it up at any elf center.”Dr. Damu said as he wiped his sweat.
"Alright, thank you for your hard work, Dr. Oki.”Nethery was satisfied. She pointed at the bowl of instant noodles behind Dr. Damu and said," Ah, Dr. Damu, behind you is..."
"Noodles?" Dr. Oki turned around and was immediately shocked." My noodles!!!!!!"
Nethery hung up the phone with a sinister smile on her face. "Let's go, Geng Gui. Let's go to the Fairy Center to get some money and then…"
Uh, Fairy Center?
"Bite?"
Geng Gui curiously looked at his master standing stiffly by the roadside…
There was no Fairy Center here…
Six minutes later.
"Geng Gui! Let's go out of the city and catch the Lightning Elf! Then, everyone will level up all night!" Nethery roared in grief and indignation," I'd rather die than sleep in a tent in the city!”
"Keke…"
