When Zhen hurried back to DEM headquarters, it was also in chaos.
"How is the situation? Have you found any traces of those two elves?"
"No, Miss Takamiya!"
"What's going on?"
After hearing the report from her subordinates, Takamiya Mana frowned. After leaving the warehouse, she immediately contacted the base to ask them to track the whereabouts of the elves. DEM has a technology that can determine the direction by detecting the fluctuations of the elves. As long as it can detect the fluctuations, it can confirm whether these elves exist in the present world and the specific location of the elves.
Mana was not stupid, she certainly could not go to Fang Zheng and Yoshino again without any preparation, but she could not just let the two elves run around. So Mana quickly contacted DEM and asked them to detect and track the whereabouts of the two elves, but... now it failed?
"It's like this..."
Facing Mana's questioning, the staff in white coats in front of her were also trembling with fear and quite nervous. Although Mana Takamiya in front of her was only a girl of about fourteen years old, in fact, she was also a powerful magician ranked in the top five in the world. As one of the trump cards of DEM, her status in DEM was naturally very high.
"We immediately started tracking after receiving your order, but... our detection equipment encountered strong interference..."
"interference?"
"Yes."
As he spoke, the staff member typed on the keyboard. Soon, a picture that kept jumping, similar to the frequency fluctuation of radar, appeared on the screen in front of Mana. Mana was shocked to see this picture. At this moment, the various values representing the fluctuation of spiritual power on the screen were fluctuating wildly, and it looked like it was swept by a storm or whirlpool. If Mana was not sure that everything was normal outside, she would even think that a space earthquake comparable to the great air disaster thirty years ago had erupted just by looking at the detection signal in front of her.
When Hermit appeared before, there was no such strong interference from spiritual power fluctuations, so that means... the reason is that male elf?
Thinking of this, Mana frowned. According to the reports, elves should only be female. But now it seems that this is not the case. In addition to female elves, there are also male elves. And unlike the timid Hermit, the male elf's will seems to be strong and firm, and he is very opinionated. Coupled with his powerful strength, I am afraid that ordinary magicians are not his opponents at all. In fact, even Mana herself was killed instantly. She had just undergone a full body check and found no problems, and her brain was not damaged.
So, how did the other party kill them instantly?
Mana was puzzled by this question.
But Fang Zheng certainly wouldn't explain anything to Mana. Right now, he was strolling around the streets with Yoshino... Well, as the saying goes, a date is when a man and a woman wander aimlessly along the street.
"Mr. Fang Zheng...what is that?"
"That's a vending machine."
"What about that?"
“That’s a shopping mall…”
"There, there are a lot of people coming in and out..."
"It should be the game room..."
It has to be said that children are children. After walking for a while with Fang Zheng, Shion was no longer so depressed. On the contrary, she excitedly held Fang Zheng's hand, turned her head curiously and looked around, asking Fang Zheng questions from time to time. Although Shion was not the first time to come to the present world. But when she came before, she was either chased by a magician or she was alone and dared not go anywhere. She could only find an uninhabited place to stay until she returned to the neighboring world.
But now, with Fang Zheng by her side, Shion was obviously much more relaxed.
"Mr. Fang Zheng, Mr. Fang Zheng...what is that for?"
"Um?"
Hearing Yoshino's question, Fang Zheng raised his head and looked in the direction of Yoshino's finger, looking at a building not far away with a huge poster hanging on it.
"That's the cinema, where people show movies."
"Movie?"
"It's about putting the story on the screen... turning it into pictures... Well, it's hard to put it that way, so why don't we go and take a look?"
Anyway, watching movies is an indispensable part of a date.
"May I?"
"sure."
Hearing Fang Zheng's suggestion, Shion showed a happy and expectant expression. Looking at the cute little girl beside him, Fang Zheng couldn't help but touch her little head. To be honest, being with Shion also made Fang Zheng feel very relaxed. Shion gave him the feeling of a newly born chick full of curiosity about the outside world, pure and cute.
Not only that, sometimes Shion's behavior reminded Fang Zheng of Nymph. Come to think of it, these two people are a bit similar. They both rely on themselves, have blue hair, and have similar figures...
It’s just that Nymph is still somewhat independent, but as for Yoshino…even though they have only known each other for half a day, Fang Zheng already feels that she seems to be unable to leave him.
I have to admit that Yoshino's appearance and her personality can easily arouse other people's desire to protect her. She always speaks softly and is quite shy. Every time I see her speak, Fang Zheng can't help but want to hold the little girl in his arms and rub her to reassure her... Well, but I, Fang Zheng, am a serious person, how could I do such a thing?
With all kinds of thoughts running through his mind, Fang Zheng brought Yoshino to the ticket office. There were not many people here, perhaps because it had just reopened.
So, what movie should I watch?
While thinking, Fang Zheng looked at the poster not far away. There were three movies showing in the cinema at the moment. The first one was a horror movie called "Ghost Street". Fang Zheng would definitely pass this movie immediately. Although according to the orthodox plot, he should decisively take the girl to watch a horror movie, and then watch her get scared and hide in his arms. But Yoshino is not an ordinary girl, but an elf. What if she got scared and her power went out of control and froze the entire cinema into an ice storage? That would be a lot of fun.
As for the second part, it was called "The Green Grassland of the Husband Next Door". Fang Zheng roughly scanned the plot introduction and found that it was basically a story between a single man and the couple next door. Well... this thing is very adult-oriented, but it is not suitable for girls of Yoshino's age. Not to mention that Yoshino doesn't seem to understand this aspect very well, so it's best not to watch this kind of thing to instill some weird values.
The last one is a children's film called "The Adventures of a Dream Princess", which tells the story of a princess from the land of dreams traveling to the real world. It looks very childish, but... judging from Yoshino's psychological age, it seems that she is indeed more suitable to watch this?
It’s decided.
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng walked to the ticket office.
"Excuse me, please give me two copies of The Adventures of a Fantasy Princess..."
However, before Fang Zheng finished speaking, a hand suddenly stretched out from his other side, grabbed Fang Zheng's sleeve and pulled it. When Fang Zheng turned his head, he saw the silver-haired sword elf standing there, staring at him expressionlessly.
Although Esther didn't say anything, Fang Zheng understood what she wanted to say, so he shrugged his shoulders and turned away again.
"...Please give me three tickets for The Adventures of a Fantasy Princess..."
