Dead?!
Alomon was Brynberg's cousin and had some connection to her original self, Leah. Based on Brynberg's expression, Yuai suspected that Alomon's death was not natural.
She asked, "What's going on?"
"She let Jean Whitaker go, and that guy killed her," Blimber said, his head bowed in sorrow.
Yuai had an impression of Jean Whitaker. At that time, she suspected that it was Jean Whitaker who attracted the tiger shark with cod, and was later caught by Jose. However, she and McPhee left Sayinde quickly and did not know what happened afterwards.
Brinberg took a deep breath and said, "Uncle Jose went to check and found out that it was Jean Whitaker who used cod to lure the tiger shark here."
"Why?" You Ai wondered, was it for revenge against their race?
"The Ludong tribe has always coveted our position. They bribed Rang, intending to use him to lure Tiger Shark into the tribe first and start a massacre. Alomon was deceived by him and let him go. When he escaped to the border, he was captured by the guards. He then took Alomon hostage, intending to force the guards to let him go, but he failed."
Brinbeh didn't say anything else, but Youai could guess what she meant, so he raised his hand and rubbed her shoulder.
Brinberg shook Youai's hand, smiled, and shook his head. He continued, "The Ludong tribe refuses to acknowledge this. We only have Jean Whittaker's confession, which cannot be used as evidence. We can only endure it."
Since they were near the Saiyinde tribe, they should have come to participate in the selection of the successor. Yu Ai asked, "What is the name of their prince?"
"Gong Yuan Vina."
"Gong Yuan Vina?"
Yuai thought about it, but had no recollection of it. Brinbeh said, "She's not here. I paid special attention and didn't see her or anyone else of her race."
"Didn't you come to participate in this selection?" You Ai said.
Brinbeh shook his head. "They are coming. We met them on the road. Princess Ruiko almost got into an argument with them, so we changed our route. But I asked the guards here, and they have no record of the Heron Cave race arriving."
This matter was not a big deal, so they did not delve into it any further. After chatting for a while, Brynberg and Riko went back first, followed by McPhee and Killua.
Masha and Ghana went to get the necessary items. After all, with the addition of Youai, there was only Youai and the three monsters in the room. As soon as Mai Fei entered the room, he was surrounded by Xiaoqi and Datou.
Mai Fei touched each of them, then looked Xiao Dai in the eye. After a while, Xiao Dai retreated under You Ai's arm and said with great hurt, "Master, I can't beat him."
You Ai was amused. "He is my partner, why did you hit him?"
"But what if he treats you badly?" Xiao Dai stared at Mai Fei and said, "I will always treat her well."
"Hmph!" Xiao Dai simply turned her head away and didn't look at him.
Killua, who was standing by, looked puzzled and said, "Are you guys playing dumb?"
Realizing that Killua didn't understand the language of the monsters, Yuai smiled and explained it to him.
Killua laughed, "Hahahaha you can't beat him, and neither can I, but we can discuss how to fight him to have a better chance of winning."
Just like that, Xiao Dai and the others were kidnapped by Killua. Yu Ai was so happy that he said to Mai Fei, "You better be careful."
"No need. It wants to hit me because it's afraid that I'll treat you badly, but I wouldn't do that."
Mai Fei pulled You Ai aside. Considering that they were in a large crowd, they just sat side by side. You Ai told him about what happened and her own guesses.
"But there is no evidence at the moment. It's useless even if they deny it." You Ai felt helpless. She scratched Mai Fei's palm unconsciously while speaking. Although she didn't use much force, her palm turned red. She rubbed it quickly and resisted the urge to continue scratching.
Mai Fei looked at You Ai's movements without paying any attention to them. He let her fiddle with them and said, "I saw a familiar face earlier."
The movement of his hands stopped, and You Ai looked at him, "Juan?"
Mai Fei nodded. "Before you came out, I realized something was wrong, so I discussed it with Jeffrey and the others. We planned to let them go out in the open and make a scene, while Killua and I would search in secret. I didn't expect them to agree directly and bring us to see you."
"I guess they want to use this as a screening method. If Masha hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that the poke was useful." You Ai was a little distressed. He didn't know anything yet, but he exposed himself to the other party. It was too unreasonable.
Mai Fei rubbed her hair and said, "Don't worry too much."
You Ai nodded, but it was just a nod, still looking very concerned. Mai Fei then said, "I saw another familiar face when I came back just now."
"Um?"
"Of the Poznan race."
"Nao?" You Ai exclaimed. Seeing Mai Fei nod, she was happy at first, but then said uncertainly: "She just arrived?" If she arrived earlier, it is impossible that she didn't come to see her.
"Yes, it seems we were delayed on the way."
What happened? To find out and to see Nao, Yu Ai went to find her.
As soon as I found Nao and her friends' residence, I heard a loud noise.
"Why should you choose first? We were the ones who got here first!"
"The guard just told me to choose first, and I want this one."
"No, we got here first and have already chosen this one." You Ai could tell that it was Nao's voice.
"Why don't you move quickly? Do you need my help? It's not impossible, just bow to me." You Ai had no impression of this voice. When listening to it, one could imagine the arrogance of the person who spoke.
"I have such a bad temper..." Nao's voice became softer, probably because someone stopped her. You Ai and Mai Fei also squeezed into the circle of onlookers.
Listening to the discussions of the onlookers along the way, she almost understood the matter:
Nao and her friends met mermaids from another race on the road. They had several arguments over food, resting places, etc., and ended up being late because of the quarrel.
Finally they arrived at the Shoal Harbor tribe. As they were the last to arrive, all the other houses were full, leaving only the last two. Nao and her friends moved into one of them first, but the heirs of another tribe insisted on having Nao's room, and so they started arguing again.
When she arrived at the first row, You Ai found that they were all familiar faces... Well, as long as they were still these people, she would be a familiar face wherever she went, and everyone greeted her enthusiastically.
The greetings attracted the protagonists of the quarrel in the middle to look over. When Nao saw it, her anger turned into joy.
"Yu Ai!" She ignored everyone else and immediately swam over to hug her. "I miss you so much."
"Okay, okay, I missed you too." You Ai touched her back, and when he raised his eyes, he looked at the mermaid who had just quarreled with Nao.
