People in Mond, arrogant sun, not hated

"Guests really have discernment. This is a high-end product collected from the deep sea by divers in our country who risked their lives. Today, seeing that you are destined, how about a [-]% discount for you to get [-] moras?"

"not so good."

"Ugh?"

Ermes indifferently picked up the string of pink pearl necklace and observed it before speaking.

"What kind of high-end goods...the size, shape, luster, and thickness of the bead layer are all ordinary. However, since there are no huge defects and it is not artificially bred, I can barely count you 8000 moras."

The Zhidong businessman's expression shook.

Die, this foreigner knows how to do it!

But he still bargained with a smile.

"Guests, you understand quite well, but a discount of [-]% is still too much. Eight thousand moras are really too little."

Elmes remained expressionless.

Said the sentence that the businessman least wanted to hear.

"It's not that I can only buy from you. I'll give you 8500 Mora to save face. Let me tell you first, as long as I want, I can buy it at a price lower than this. The grade is a few better than this." Stairs, buying here is just because children like it.”

Gently touched Keli's little head.

Elmes spoke.

"In a word, sell it or not?"

The merchant from Zhidong looked hesitantly at the price which was close to the purchase price, and finally heaved a helpless sigh.

"Forget it, forget it, I'm unlucky to meet an expert, so let's do what you say."

After paying casually, Elmes picked up the necklace in his hand and said softly to Keli.

"Come on Keli, turn around and I'll tie it on for you."

"Uh-huh."

Ke Li looked at this bargain-killing worship and nodded.

Brother Elmes is so powerful, just as powerful as... and mother.

And Ying quickly took a picture and prepared to show it to Captain Qin and the others later.

See if they will believe this photo is real.

"However, fortunately, you are not like Mr. Zhongli in this respect."

If it was Zhongli, he would pick out the best batch and order them all in one bite.

Then send all the accounts to Beiguo Bank or Xiangshengtang.

Elmes tried hard to fasten the necklace without paying attention, and casually explained the reason.

"Well, after all, when I first came to this world, I couldn't be extravagant, and I didn't understand anything at the time and I was easily deceived."

Ying was taken aback, this was the first time they had heard him talk about the past since they had known each other for so long.

Before, I was asking around from other people, and I was not objective enough in various aspects.

Elmes continued with a smile.

"Let me tell you a funny story. Once, a damn unscrupulous businessman tricked me into buying a sunset fruit that was dyed golden at a price of [-] moras. Hungry."

"Oh, that person is good or bad, even Keli knows that this kind of thing is fake, was Brother Elmes so stupid at the time?"

Keli tilted her head and said words that hit the soul directly.

Elmes could only return a helpless wry smile.

It was really clumsy at the time, and I didn't understand anything about this world.

I don't know what to eat, and I don't know how to get along with others. I even have to learn the language bit by bit, and my thinking is as transparent as the Trisolaran.

So I have suffered a lot of big losses, and naturally I will be cheated.

At that time, the 996 moras was a little money he had saved after working in [-] for two weeks. He thought he could use the money to sleep in a hotel once.

"But if I was unlucky, I could only nest in a damp tree hole and eat the detoxifying Dudulian leaves. The golden sunset fruit had completely deteriorated, which made me hurt for a long time. I couldn't sleep all night. There was a The Qiuqiu people who came out to look for food heard my voice, thought they had seen a ghost, and were frightened to the point of shit."

Elmes shrugged and said with a cheerful tone.

"From that time on, I won't spend money recklessly, so Ke Li, don't you want to spend money recklessly in the future, you know?"

"Well, Kelly knows."

Even though he was talking about these unhappy past events, he still had a smile on his face.

And look at him like that.

Ying's smile disappeared, and she couldn't connect these experiences with the Elmes she knew now.

She suddenly found out.

Apart from knowing things about his abilities.

Maybe he didn't know anything about Elmes at all.

Whether it's his truth, his past, or...

his arrogance.

After shopping around the entire commercial street again, the afternoon is almost over.

For the final play Elmes chose the child's favourite.

Ah Shan Po's toy stand~~

"Kelly, you should occasionally try other toys besides bombs. These things are also very interesting."

"emmm~~ What is this colorful bird-like thing?"

"This is called a kite. As long as there is wind, it can fly very high like a bird."

"Wow, is it the same as Lord Barbatos?"

"Well, just like Barbatos."

(Wendy: ......)

And the old man with white hair in front of him kindly raised his head, looked at the cute little Keli and said with a gentle smile.

"It's such a rare and cute little guest. Your appearance...you should come from a neighboring country."

"Hmm, old woman, is this green kite the style of Lord Barbatos?"

"Well, this overflowing green is very conspicuous! Do you want this?"

And at this moment, Elmes patted the dazed back behind with a hard palm.

It made her startled and trembled all over.

"Huh! What are you doing?!"

Elmes looked at her who was suddenly startled with inexplicable eyes.

"Why are you in a daze when you have nothing to do? Go and help pay for it."

"Let me come? You have no money now?"

"Also."

"Huh? Then why, you want to cheat this little money?"

Elmes shook his hand and raised his eyebrows with a somewhat complicated expression.

"Is this... I don't really want to talk to the old man. Anyway, you go up and pay the money first."

Ying sighed helplessly.

"Although I don't know what you're talking about, there's really nothing I can do about you."

----------

The wind was blowing by the sea, and the green kite was floating in the air at a height of [-] meters, flying like Barbatos.

Keli was happily running around with the kite, looking like she was having a good time, and the childlike Pymon was also flying around her, like a big white moth.

Ying and Elmes sat on the stone bench beside her and watched her, quietly waiting for the night to come.

Holding the lotus flower cake bought at the food stall in his hand, it was so hot that it exuded a sweet smell.

"Well, this lotus flower cake is so delicious, it makes people want to eat another one after eating it."

"Humph, [Shanghai Yue Brand Lotus Crisp], this is my careful recommendation. I have eaten it for several years and I haven't gotten tired of it. Every time I come to Liyue to have free time, I will eat this while blowing the sea breeze. daze."

The comfortable sea breeze blows, exuding a leisurely holiday atmosphere.

"Yo, it's flying! Yay!!"

"Kelly, watch your step!"

He quietly watched Keli, who was smiling happily, and the corners of his mouth raised an indifferent arc.

After being silent for a long time, Ying finally made up her mind.

She covered her mouth and coughed lightly.

"Ahhh, Elmes, we've known each other for so long, I haven't heard much about your past."

Elmes glanced back at her, narrowing his eyes slightly because of the inexplicable question.

"I used to? It's nothing. Like most people, I have all kinds of memories. If you are interested, I can tell you something interesting."

"That's not what I want to hear..."

Elmes immediately put on a kitten face.

"Then you mean you want to hear about my dark history? It's a bit dreamy."

There is no idiot in the world who would take the initiative to expose his dark history to others.

"It's not this, how should I put it, I...I..."

Ying put her hands on her chest and sorted out the vocabulary in a somewhat complicated way.

Finally, he reluctantly organized the thoughts in his heart into shape.

I.......

"Just as a friend, I want to know you better."

Elmes slowly widened his eyes.

Following this ambiguous sentence, the atmosphere between the two suddenly became strange.

Then it was instantly shattered by Elmes staring at the dead fish eyes.

"I said... did you make your words so ambiguous on purpose?"

"That's not it! It's just that it hasn't been completely sorted out yet, so don't think about it wrong."

"Oh~~"

Ermes swayed his legs with an arrogant and embarrassing smile, and looked at her with unusually embarrassing eyes.

Let the mood that Ying had just brewed suddenly deteriorate.

A large vein appeared on his forehead.

What the fuck are you looking at?

Want to fight!

But she still managed to sort out her mood, and said while covering her chest.

"I just feel that I don't know anything about your past. If I can't even understand and know those things, I don't think I can be considered your friend, let alone the crime of anger afterwards."

After listening in silence, Elmes suddenly looked at the sea and spoke.

"Ying, I'm not the type to listen to horror stories."

"what?"
