...

It was already sunset, and the sea was reflecting red. Xing Qiu was not the only one who needed to be received, but there were also other guests who needed to be guided to the Wan Guo Chamber of Commerce.

In this way, the priority is to arrange the guests in place, and then see that it is still dark, and go to the nearest market center.

Abedo was still in front of those canvases, as if he had finished one! It's only been two hours, it's amazing!

Finished the last stroke.

Wendy nodded frequently on the side: "It's really good, not only has the style of a rice wife, but also fits the aesthetics of modern people...especially me on the canvas, even when I'm sleeping, I look very personable!"

Taking a look at the canvas, Abedo used Wendy as a reference to draw the image of "Cuiguang" in the Five Songs Fairy, not to mention, it fits quite well.

Paimon, who flew over, heard Wendy complimenting herself without hearing anything else, and immediately suppressed and belittled: "Hey, sing, don't be too complacent, you are just a model, this person is not you. !"

"Hey." Wendy stuck out her tongue, took out the wine gourd, and took a sip disapprovingly.

Abedo looked for the voice and turned back: "Paimon, you guys are back... um, who is next to him?"

Probably guessed it, but still ask first to avoid the embarrassment of guessing wrong.

Xing Qiu was much more direct, firmly believed in his own intuition, and immediately stepped forward.

No matter how tired you are, you can raise a long-awaited smile.

"You are Mr. Bai Cha! It's an honor to meet you, I'm the author of "Shen Qiu Picking Up Swords"... No... I met and asked you to call me by my pseudonym. I'm really embarrassed, your name is I'll be fine in autumn."

Abedo was stunned for a moment. He was actually not used to dealing with such active and enthusiastic people, but fortunately, he had written and talked before.

"Then you can call me Abedo too."

"No, no, how can it be done..."

"Why not? Since everyone is Ying's friends, it should be more convenient to call them by their real names... Besides, we used to communicate often. You are so polite, but I am not used to it."

"..."

So polite, I don't know when it's the head.

Paimon was annoyed when he heard it, and got between the two: "Yeah, Xingqiu, don't talk about these... um... red tape?"

With the right words, it is not easy to get a jelly bean reward.

Just bought it on the roadside in summer to tame Paimon.

Throwing it over, Pai Meng caught it with his mouth firmly, and then showed off with a great air, not caring at all whether he was suspected of playing tricks.

Then, a jelly bean aroused greedy worms.

Paimon is hungry.

Although the Wanguo Chamber of Commerce provides complete board and lodging, how can the second young master of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce be allowed to eat that kind of ordinary food?

After finally coming to Dao wife, of course, I have to go to the best, most high-end and most luxurious hotel.

Not sure what is the best, highest end, most luxurious? Just choose the most expensive one.

"Let's go to dinner first! Let's chat while we eat!"

Xingqiu seems to have difficulty: "Well, this is..."

Seeing Abedo so happy, he is hesitant to eat now, what's the matter?

Ying asked with concern: "What's the matter? Are you too tired? Do you want to rest first..."

Xing Qiu shook his head and replied: "It's okay, let's go eat! Go to the "Seafood Pavilion" over there, the seafood there is not bad... You go and wait for me first, I will come after I put the salute. "

"Well! Then let's go and order food first!"

Paimon rushed towards the restaurant very aggressively, but watched Xingxia stay where he was and Xingqiu's back, and then turned back.

"What's wrong?"

Everyone's eyes were cast, Xia Xia didn't hide it, and said directly: "I suspect that Xing Qiu didn't get off the boat just now."

"Huh?" Paimon didn't understand, while Ying and Abedo were thoughtful, and probably had some suspicions.

Xia Xia glanced at Xing Qiu before he came out of the Chamber of Commerce, and explained in detail the loopholes he found in Xing Qiu.

"In the past, Dao's wife has been locked in the country, and Xing Qiu also said that this is the first time he has come to Dao's wife, so how did he know that the seafood at "Wanwei Pavilion" is good? "

"There is also Abedo's illustration. I remember Abedo said that because the time is very short, your illustration will be printed as soon as it is delivered to Rice Wife... It stands to reason that Xingqiu should not know the content of the illustration."

"But he went into great detail about the illustration details of the latest chapter... Isn't it weird?"

It's so obvious that Paimon still doesn't understand: "Xiamen, what exactly do you mean?"

Ying used a summary that Paimon could understand: "I think what Xia Xia means is that Xing Qiu didn't arrive today, and he has already seen the latest book."

Think about what happened in the warehouse.

"! Are you saying that Xing Qiu is a prisoner?"

Paimon covered his mouth in surprise, and then immediately retorted: "How is it possible? How could Xingqiu be a prisoner? His dream is to be a chivalrous man, and he will never do anything against morality!"

Ying quickly pulled Paimon from the air and hugged her in her arms, so as not to be heard too loudly: "Paimon, don't worry."

Abedo also holds the same opinion as Paimon: "Well...although Xingqiu and I met for the first time just now, we have been exchanging letters before, and I also know something about his character, what should be in it? Secret."

Paimon couldn't help but guess: "Xingqiu will not encounter any danger, is he threatened by someone?"

"You thought you were acting in a novel!"

Xia Xia smiled. Although he thought that the theft of books in the warehouse might be related to Xing Qiu, he never said that Xing Qiu was a bad person.

"Anyway, it's all speculation, let's have dinner together! After dinner, maybe we can ask something else."

——————

One more chapter should be over.

Chapter 840 The Book Thief Arrested

The construction of the outlying islands has been stagnant for many years after Inazu was locked up in the country.

Only this "sea food pavilion" in front of me is barely of a grade.

But it is also for foreigners, locals who eat seafood and vomit, no matter how delicious it is, they are not willing to spend a lot of money to go in.

Anyway, Xia Xia and the others spent a pleasant meal time together.

"It's delicious... Inazu's dishes are mainly fresh seafood, which suits my taste very well."

Although Xingqiu claims to be a man in the rivers and lakes, he still eats in the style of a young master, using a cup for drinking, chopsticks for eating meat, and wiping his mouth with a tissue after work.

Abedo is more elegant, eats lightly, and the plate is always empty, even making people wonder if he has eaten at all.

Ying and Paimon are different, they are both poor and hungry people who love to eat...

Ying was usually shy, but when she opened her stomach, it was as if she had opened a dimensional pocket, and her appetite was not small at all.

They deliberately sat next to Xia Xia, and also made Xia Xia lean forward to help cover up the two people's foolishness.

"Hee hee, that's fine, we're still worried that you won't have a good appetite if you don't sleep well."

Paimon patted his belly a few times bigger, almost 80% full, and could eat more: "Boss, three more plates of "Seafood Qunyinghui"! "

"Seafood Qun Yinghui" is to have everything, order one and eat Baiwei.

Ying's belly is also visible to the naked eye. It's more than a circle. Xia Tian occasionally looks down and peeks, and he can't help but want to poke it with his hands. His gaze is like looking at a pregnant wife.

Ying shyly covered her stomach with her hands, not showing it.

Seeing that everyone has almost eaten, in summer, when they are full and about to fall asleep, they open their mouths to test.

"By the way, Xingqiu, we forgot to tell you something."

"What's up?"

"You may not be able to hold the signing party in a few days!"

"What's wrong?"

Xing Qiu was shocked. The most important thing for him to come to Dao's wife was the signing ceremony, so he was not nervous.

"The latest volume of "Shen Qiu Picking Up Swords" is missing."

Xia Xia deliberately said paragraph by paragraph, just to see Xing Qiu's reaction.

Hearing that the latest volume of "Shen Qiu Picking Up Swords" was missing, Xing Qiu had no sleep, and "Teng" stood up: "It's gone? What's going on? Who said it? Did Onodera edit it?"

This reaction is definitely not pretending... Could it be that I guessed wrong? He has nothing to do with the theft of books?

"No, it's the editor-in-chief of Hirayama, who said that those books and periodicals disappeared from the warehouse, and they are still under investigation..."

After hearing this, Xing Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, and the nervousness and panic disappeared in an instant.

"From the warehouse... oh, that's it."

After everyone appreciates such a quick face change, they all understand.

All eyes were drawn around, and the atmosphere became serious.

Xing Qiu could feel this weirdness, and he avoided his eyes with a ghost in his heart, and forced a smile: "What's wrong? Why are you all so serious all of a sudden?"

He also tried to make a joke to change the subject: "Don't worry, this meal is my treat, you can eat whatever you want..."

Of course Paimon wouldn't let it go, and immediately bit two big crabs, but he didn't lose his head because of the delicious taste.

She asked disappointedly, "Xingqiu, why are you lying?"

Not giving up until the Yellow River, Xing Qiu is still concealing: "Hey, where did this come from?"

It is better to hit Huanglong directly than to attack from the side.

Ying took a sip of water, smoothed her stomach, and then asked, "Xingqiu, you actually arrived at Dao's wife long before today, right?"

Paimon flew over excitedly with a big belly: "Have you encountered any danger, so you can't tell the truth? Don't be afraid, whether it's Ying or Abedo, they are all very powerful! Even in summer, can help!"

cough cough-

Summer almost choked on what he was about to say.

Hey hey, what does "even if" mean? Did you do this on purpose? I am very strong now!

But since Paimon knew that he was a waste and couldn't help at all, he didn't care.

"No, no, you misunderstood!"

Xing Qiu waved his hands again and again, in order to avoid Paimon's continued unreasonable speculation, he decided to be frank: "I did come to Dao's wife in order to deal with some things, let me think about how to explain it..."

Xia Xia, Ying, and Paimon are all his friends, while Abedo is the painter he admires. If he lied to these people, what is the morality of the rivers and lakes?

But after thinking about it for a long time, I still can't say it: "Oh, it's really hard to say..."

Xia Tian tried to guess: "Is it because of the book signing?"

Xing Qiu widened his eyes and said in surprise, "How do you know everything?"

The word "you" is not rigorous, because Paimon obviously doesn't know: "What's wrong with signing the book? Is there any difficulty? Is it because someone threatened that Xingqiu was not allowed to sign and sell the book?"

Turning to being threatened again, has Paimon been reading a novel recently, and there are too many such plots in it?

"Paimon, no one threatens me, it's..." Xingqiu hesitated.

Xia Xia didn't speak, but used the action of writing on the desktop to convey the reason to Paimon.

In Liyue, there are not many people who know that the second young master of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce has ugly handwriting, but there are many who know that there are such ugly handwriting.

On the notice board of Mochizuki Inn, the "calligraphy treasure" left by Xingqiu can be described as a must, and many people even went to pay their respects and left a message under his copybook.

In a sense, the word Xingqiu is very famous.

Other people's famous characters pay attention to the dance of dragons and phoenixes, while his famous characters pay attention to dangluan and phoenix...

"It's Xingqiu's word! Haha, that's what it is!" Paimon understood, and then he couldn't hold back his laughter.

"Ah... Although it's a bit embarrassing to say it, it doesn't matter what you say."

After being pointed out, Xing Qiu also had no burdens, and simply explained everything clearly.

"This Rongcai Festival, the editor of Onodera proposed the idea of ​​releasing the "author-signed new issue" without notifying me in advance. support. "

"...But you also know that I'm not very good at calligraphy, so autographing activities are really inappropriate."
