Chapter 922 Confidant
Chapter 922 Confidant
Shen Yu quickly found traces of the two children in the surveillance footage... but only a tiny bit.
After all, Latias saw Lily reaching for the elevator button and then flew out of the corridor window with her.
Therefore, Shen Yu only found this one scene from beginning to end.
"Thank you so much, you've gone to so much trouble."
"No trouble at all... Finding the child is the most important thing."
Shen Yu nodded and went out again.
Next, he went to the island's security office to check the surveillance footage.
As I walked out of the hotel, I scanned a small electric scooter at the entrance.
"Makka Pakka Ikawaka Mika Makka Bong..."
It's a video call from a chat app.
Shen Yu picked it up and glanced at it. It was from Ye Xuanming's group chat, inviting him to join a video call.
Riding a small electric scooter with one hand, I clipped my phone to the phone holder on the front of the scooter and pressed the call button.
"Hey~ It's so late, why aren't you asleep yet~"
The scene was filled with bright lights and revelry, clearly indicating they were still having a great time. These young men and women really didn't know any restraint; they stayed up all night partying right after winning the championship...
The navigation on the unethical map was on a small screen. Shen Yu glanced at it and continued on his way.
On the other end of the video call, Ye Xuanming saw the familiar building next to Shen Yu and asked him a question.
"Teacher Shen, you've gone back to the island?"
"Yeah, I got back tonight. Congratulations on winning the championship!"
Shen Yu saw that the light ahead was red and slowed down.
"Hey~ It's all as it should be~ If it weren't for the strange thing that Siliya brought out, you might have heard the good news about our victory even sooner~"
Ye Xuanming clearly wanted to say something more, but then several other people barged into the frame.
Nymph is holding her Sylveon, while Yang Du is holding a chicken leg...
In short, there was a huge crowd of people crammed into the frame, making it look very crowded.
"Teacher Shen! You're back!"
"There are so many delicious foods on this street behind the venue! There are still so many people here! Would you like to come along?"
The red light turned green in front of Shen Yu, and he turned the handle again.
"I really want to go too~ but I have some things to do right now."
Shen Yu sighed, glanced at the map navigation again, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw a familiar red and white figure at the stall behind his group of students.
Huh?
Shen Yu pulled over to the side of the road and stopped, carefully looking at his phone. The sudden closeness of his face made Ye Xuanming's head spin with questions.
"What's wrong, Teacher Shen?"
Shen Yu tried to close his eyes carefully, but because the distance was too far and the phone's resolution was too low, he couldn't see clearly.
"Xuanming, look behind you. Is there a Latias?"
Ye Xuanming was startled when he heard the voice. Qiu Qinghao behind him turned around first and saw Latias buying jianbing guozi at the stall behind them and the little girl on her back.
Yes, there's a little girl on his back too!
"Leave those two there! Go now!"
Shen Yu shouted, startling the old man selling sweet potatoes from his cart next to him, who looked at the young man beside him.
Shen Yu seemed to realize that he was getting a little emotional. He took a deep breath, looked up, and saw that there was only an old man beside him. He gave him an apologetic smile.
"Xuanming, tell those two to behave themselves and not run around. We'll decide where to go when I get there!"
He casually hung up the phone, put the navigation on the homepage, and then waved to the old man who had just been frightened by him.
"Is anyone grilling something...?"
…………
Ye Xuanming led the other five people to surround the stall, making it impossible to pass through.
The owner of the jianbing (Chinese crepe) stall was stunned. Looking at the group of young people in front of him, his hands trembled slightly.
"How many of you...would you like to eat?"
The owner's reaction clearly caught the attention of Latias and Lily, who were waiting for fruit in front of the stall, but they were a little tired after playing all night and decided to eat something and go home...
However, the lights that were shining down suddenly seemed to have lost power, dimming down so much that I could hardly see the jianbing guozi stall anymore.
Latias turned around and looked behind him...
Yea!
Latias jolted awake, nearly jolting little Lily off her back.
It's you guys... what are you doing?
Latias certainly knew them—or rather, she was quite familiar with them. She really liked the little girl holding Sylveon; after training, she often listened to Shen Yu practice music with her in the music room on the evenings.
Then the big guy at the very back often shared his food with me.
That seemingly cold girl would casually add ice to her drink when she was looking for something to drink.
In short, it seems that I built a good relationship with these guys while they were training.
Ye Xuanming leaned closer and looked at the little girl clinging to her back.
"Latias, who is this little girl?"
Latias shook his head.
I didn't know her, but I brought her out to play because she was wearing Shen Yu's clothes.
Ye Xuanming: ???
Everyone:?
Do you have such a big heart?
Ye Xuanming pinched his cheek, finally sighed, and looked at the fruit stall.
Forget it, come here.
"Boss, one set, please."
"Okay...okay."
The boss was working quickly, but at that moment, Yang Du, who was holding his phone and squinting as he looked for something, suddenly had a bright look in his eyes!
"Boss! Three kinds of vegetarian fried dough sticks, extra spicy, with raw scallions, no bag, fried egg, sesame seeds, shredded peppers, and chili oil!"
The shout was so loud that it even attracted the attention of those around them.
But Governor Yang was not flustered at all. Instead, he met the gaze of the stall owner who had looked up.
Those eyes looked like those of long-lost half-brothers.
"You can eat so much?!"
"The batter is in the bucket, the eggs are in the basket, make your own!"
"Pickled vegetables are free!"
The stall owner suddenly became energetic, his eyes shining brightly.
A series of words just came out in a blur, and no one else could hear them clearly.
"Commander Yang, what's that?"
"A simple rule... it doesn't matter, just follow this requirement! Absolutely standard!"
Looking at the shop owner again, his hands were moving more nimbly than before, deftly flipping the mung bean and multigrain flour pancakes in his hands...
[You haven't answered my question yet! What are you all doing gathered here?]
Latias tilted his head and swayed it left and right a couple of times. Then he saw Ye Xuanming raise his phone and point to a call log on it.
"Teacher Shen is back. He said we should hold you back for now and not let you leave until he comes..."
"Di Di~"
The sound of a small electric scooter rang out.
A small blue bicycle suddenly appeared on the street behind, and the rider frowned as he looked at the phone clipped to the front of the handlebars.
"Where am I...? I feel like I can't even understand the navigation anymore..."
Just as he was about to walk past them, Ye Xuanming shouted—
"Teacher Shen!"
Shen Yu looked up and saw six people... and two little girls surrounded by them.
A satisfied smile appeared on his face.
