Chapter 345

"Counting it...it seems that I haven't seen Baiyin for a while."

Lin Jie stood among the familiar irises, looked at the towering giant tree that covered the sky, rubbed the ring on his hand and muttered to himself.

In fact, it's not that he doesn't want to chat with a pleasing opposite sex every day in his dreams, the main reason is that during this period of time, there are more things than before, especially the management of the book cafe.

Although it is said to be fishing, Moen has to relearn everything. It is quick to learn common sense or simple skills, but more complicated business operations like "how to run a book cafe" are difficult for Moen. To say that you have to understand the relevant knowledge first, and it will take more time to understand.

The current Moen is still more accustomed to obeying orders and then executing them meticulously. If she is allowed to do it on her own, she will be at a loss for a long time... So Lin Jie decided to arrange it by himself.

There are things to do during the day, and I want to sleep normally at night.

Well, in fact, these are not the main reasons.

The real reason is that silver is often not at home recently...

That's right, after entering this dreamland, Lin Jie sometimes couldn't find Bai Yin's figure, and could only stare blankly at the irises and the falling snow all over the sky, and it usually lasted for several days.

After more times, Lin Jie was not so obsessed with chatting with her every night.

Obviously this is Baiyin's dream, but the fact that she is often not seen in person often confuses Lin Jie.

But every time Baiyin appeared again, when he wanted to ask, the former would always show a sly smile, put his finger on his lips, and say something like "This is a secret", "You will know when the time comes", "The surprise will come sooner or later." It won't be a surprise if I say it" to prevaricate.

Fudge, just try to fudge.

Lin Jie curled his lips, he was tired of playing this mysterious and appetizing trick eight hundred years ago.

But even if he knew it was all a bluff, he didn't choose to get to the bottom of it.

After all, if a silly [beep——] man plays surprises with you, the process may be disgusting, and the result may be frightening, so it must be stopped immediately, but when a gentle and lovely girl plays surprises with you, it is not boring, It's called fun...ahem, fun, fun.

In short, the combination of these two reasons caused Lin Jie to rarely see silver during this period.

Lin Jie walked slowly to the bottom of the big tree.

Unsurprisingly, it was still empty.

Only the bench shaped by him last time was still among the flowers, and it has been kept since then, but no one sat on it for a while, and it was covered with petals.

Lin Jie reached out and patted the petals and thin snow covered on the bench clean, then sat down and took out the notebook from the earth and the information about the lower city provided by Andrew.

These days, even if he can't see Bai Yin, he will often go to this dreamland, look at the scenery, and then do some things of his own.

Thanks to Andrew, Lin Jie already has a good understanding of the basic situation of Nuojin's lower city.

And compared with that notebook, many doubts have been solved one by one.

"Andrew seems to like Shuca's pearl milk tea very much. He has repurchased it several times. Next time, I will give him a few cups for free..."

Thinking so, Lin Jie sorted out these materials for the last time.

The most important points in the notes are the words and architectural drawings traced by the owner of the notes, as well as the "door" that exists underground that he described.

After Lin Jie's careful comparison, it was determined that the copied patterns matched the styles of some excavated buildings in the ruins of the lower city.

And most of those disfigured characters are the common language of the Elf Kingdom in the second era, but they are not the orthodox ancient elf language that Lin Jie inherited from Candela.

It has undergone a later evolution, which is the language used by some survivors after the fall of Alfreds.

According to the information given by Andrew—or it is more appropriate to say the myth, these survivors split into several branches after losing the protection of the last elf king Kendela in the dark age without fire.

The largest of them has always been sticking to their royal city, but under the invasion of "darkness", it has endlessly shrunk its territory from the periphery to the inside, and finally fell completely.

And the entire royal city has also been turned into ruins, turning into a lair where darkness breeds.

The words on these notes...that is, what the owner of the notes wrote down when he claimed to be "full of inspiration", used the language of this bereaved family.

Therefore, it can be concluded that the archaeological team led by Professor Lin spent most of their time in the ruins of the royal city of the Kingdom of Alfreds.

The reason why the unknown monsters attacked them and made them insane should be the "darkness" in the mouth of the elves.

"The door they found should be the entrance to this royal city, but for some unknown reason, this door actually connects Earth and Azir..."

"There must be some incentive... This archaeological project has existed for at least several months, and the entire ruin seems to be fixed there. It shouldn't be a simple overlap of time and space, right?"

Lin Jie touched his chin, feeling a little sorry.

If he was still on the earth now, it would be easy to investigate, but now he is on the other side of the door, and it is difficult to find the door.

But fortunately, the entrance from the upper city to the lower city is controlled by the Truth Society. The Truth Society can be regarded as the organization that Nuojin knows the lower city best. With Lin Jie's current relationship with Andrew, there is no problem going to the lower city, but If you want to find the ruins, you have to rely on yourself.

Andrew also gave a detailed map of the lower city.

But it is limited to the safe range of human activities in the lower city. Those ruins are so far unknown areas, so a large number of explorers and scholars approved by the Truth will go to investigate.

And this notebook was brought up like this.

"Okay, when Moen can actually take over the bookstore, I can safely go to the lower city to find clues related to this notebook..."

Lin Jie put away the materials, stretched himself, and let out a long sigh.

Leaning back, I looked at this white, beautiful and empty world.

Speaking of which, it was the first time that he stayed in this dream without Baiyin for such a long time.

He couldn't help thinking that before he came, Baiyin stayed under this big tree day after day, year after year, watching the eternal scenery, closing his eyes and falling asleep, and opening his eyes in a daze. Roaming in this flower garden...

It was really lonely.

For her, her friend seemed to be the only different color in the whole world.

The corners of Lin Jie's mouth curled up, he adjusted his posture, and closed his eyes on the bench to rest.

Just as she was about to fall asleep like this, there was a cold touch on her brow bone.

Snow?

Lin Jie was opening his eyes in doubt, his cold and slender fingers covered his eyes, and a familiar voice came from behind with a smile: "Long time no see."

Lin Jie smiled, and then said in a cold voice, "I killed someone today."
