Oxia had visited the City of Steel a long time ago, and now it has undergone an almost earth-shaking change compared to her memory.
High-rise buildings rise from the ground, roads are crisscrossed, alchemy towers run day and night, and the scale of the entire city is gradually extending to the outside world, as if it will never end.
Underground, out of sight, the scale of the city is even larger than the ground.
For hundreds of thousands of years, the dwarves have constantly expanded the size of the underworld, and perhaps even the oldest dwarves do not know exactly what size it has reached.
Everything has changed.
What surprised Oxia the most was that not only the things that could be seen by the eyes, but even the customs and habits of the City of Steel seemed to have undergone some subtle changes.
… these people actually started to believe in the characters in the novel, can you believe it? !
Yes, it is faith.
Oxia didn’t feel that her way of describing it was wrong.
In the shop where she bought jewelry just now, two young clerk girls were discussing about Sherlock Holmes, and their expressions could be described as frenzy.
At that moment, Oxia even felt that she had encountered a fanatic of the church.
Totally incomprehensible.
«Yes, the character in the novel, the novel is also named after him, it is called «The Detective Collection of Sherlock Holmes».» Keya and Oxia explained the origin of Sherlock Holmes.
«Detective collection?» Oxia was interested, her curiosity was always high, «Is it a detective’s story?»
«Yes.» Koya nodded.
There is no doubt about this, the main content of the Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection is that Sherlock Holmes relies on his own wisdom to detect complex and changeable cases, and from the perspectives that are easily overlooked by others, to deduce the hidden deepest and most unimaginable. the ultimate truth.
«Where can I buy this book?» Oxia asked.
Since it is a novel, it must have a carrier, and books are the most common type.
For the extraordinary, it is also very common to store the original spar.
«I can’t buy it for the time being.» Koya shook his head. His main task was to lead Oxia to familiarize himself with the current city of steel, and to answer her questions or provide help or something.
«Can’t buy it? Then where did you read it?» Oxia turned to look at the jewelry store she had just walked in, «How did so many people learn about this Sherlock Holmes detective? «
Perhaps it is a hunch that it belongs to the extraordinary, and Oxia feels that this matter may not be so simple.
«Have you seen the original spar displays hanging on the walls in those shops just now?» Keya asked.Fôllôw 𝒏ew stories at n𝒐/v(e)lb/in(.)com
«I see.» Oxia nodded, «It feels a bit familiar, you should be involved in it, right?»
«Yes, I have referenced some data in the database.» Keya replied, «In today’s Steel City, many shops have already installed this kind of equipment, of course, it is still in the debugging stage and has not been officially put into use. «
«So? What does this have to do with what you said about Sherlock Holmes?» Oxia held her arms, waiting for Keya’s explanation.
«In order to verify the feasibility of broadcasting equipment, only one radio program called Voice of Story has been launched, and it is broadcast at a fixed time every night. The content is to briefly describe the story of Sherlock Holmes.» Keya explained that he is also a storyteller. loyal listeners of the Voice.
Every time is not missed.
«The voice of the story? It sounds quite interesting.» Oxia laughed, «I’m a little curious who came up with this idea.»
In Oxia’s view, the introduction of Story Voice is tantamount to some epoch-making change, and those who can come up with such an idea are certainly worth knowing.
If the conditions are right, it is not impossible to reach a relationship with Inspur.
«It’s the owner of the Hearthstone Tavern.» Keya didn’t sell anything, «but only the Elder Council knows the real situation.»
Oxia’s footsteps paused for a while, she was a little surprised, and a little stunned, and quickly ended the facts that Koya said.
After all, the impression a certain boss gave her was so deep that anything that happened to Luo Chuan seemed reasonable.
«It seems that the boss has done a lot of great things here.» Oxia smiled, and her words were full of emotion.
She felt that if Luo Chuan hadn’t left Sannia so soon, the coffee shop would have caused quite a wave there sooner or later.
Even if I came to the City of Steel and everything started from scratch, the results were not much different.
«I just wanted to ask, have you and the boss met before?» Keya hesitated for a long time and finally couldn’t help but ask.
There was never much expression on his face, and it was difficult for people to perceive the emotional changes in his heart.
«Yes, I’ve known each other for a long time.» Oxia doesn’t feel the need to hide, there is no need to hide, the boss should not care about what he did in Kolo being told, «Maybe you don’t know it yet? , In fact, the boss also opened a store in another city before.»
Keya’s pupils shrank slightly, which was perhaps the biggest change in his expression.
Originally, according to the conjecture of the Council of Elders, the appearance of Hearthstone Tavern was the boss’s first attempt to visit Kolo, but Oxia’s words directly overturned all this.
The hot wind swept around Keya’s body, and his mind was running at high speed.
Because it was too hot, Oxia had to take two steps to the side, thinking in her mind whether to upgrade the cooling system of Keya or something…
«…Then why did the boss come to the City of Steel? Has his original shop gone?» Keya asked a lot.
«I asked the boss the same question before. He said that he lived in one place for a long time, so he wanted to change his mood to adjust his mood.» Oxia clearly remembered listening to Luo Chuan after contacting Luo Chuan through a communication device that day. response to the latter’s answer.
My heart is filled with countless words, but I can’t say it at all, let alone how uncomfortable it is.
«Um…»
Keya was silent, the image of a certain boss appeared in his heart, and he began to analyze according to the collected data.
«Actually, I feel that there is another possibility.» Oxia revealed Luo Chuan’s past without hesitation.
Keya listened carefully and never missed a word.
«Actually, the location of the boss’s other store is not very good. There is not even a single household in the surrounding area. They are all abandoned houses. It depends on luck that customers can visit the store. I don’t know when the boss opened the store. What are you thinking about…»
Oxia clearly remembered her thoughts when she found out that Luo Chuan opened a coffee shop.
