Xiao Cheng looked at the sky and found that it was getting late and the sports meeting was over. He felt it was time to leave Snake People City.

Then he found Hua She Er and told her that he was leaving and there were still many things to do in the store.

After hearing that Xiao Cheng was leaving, Hua She Er said in surprise.

"Can't you stay at Snake People City for a few more days?"

He spread his hands and expressed his helplessness, and explained that there were still many things in his store that he needed to do personally, otherwise he would rather have fun at Snake People City.

It's a pity that the system doesn't give people a chance to rest.

"Okay, why don't you go and tell the Queen?"

"No, I have to go back early. I wonder how my store clerks are doing?"

Hua She Er nodded.

In this way, Xiao Cheng has solved the problem here, the task has been completed, and there is nothing else going on.

After he left the range of the Snake People Tribe, he found a place where no one was and spoke to the system.

"System, transmission location, Wutan City, you can deduct the transmission fee."

He was already used to the system's deductions, and it would take at least several days to return from Tagor Desert to Wutan City. He might as well just teleport back to save trouble.

Transmission starts, location: Wutan City, countdown 3...2...1

With a flash of white light, Xiao Cheng disappeared into the desert.

Wutan City A pattern of a six-pointed star array appeared in a remote corner, and the next moment a figure appeared there out of thin air, it was Xiao Cheng.

"Huh~, it's better this time. There are no side effects. I feel like your teleportation system has been upgraded again?"

There is no upgrade, but the host's body has become accustomed to teleportation. He was right. It seemed that he had been teleported many times, and even if he was not used to it, he had to get used to it.

"It's better to go and see how the store is doing. I don't know if there are any pastries left."

he thought to himself.

Then he walked towards Ruyi Zhai.

At this time, although there were not many people at Ruyi Zhai, there were still customers buying pastries.

"Uncle Gu He, go to the kitchen and bring some pastries. There are not enough pastries."

Yue'er shouted at Gu He.

"I know, ugh"

Gu He got up and hurried to the kitchen to bring out pastries, and then went back to play by himself Rubik's Cube,

Seeing that this guy was actually addicted to Rubik's Cube, Xiao Cheng happened to walk into the store. After seeing this, he couldn't help but twitching the corner of his mouth and thinking to himself.

"Is this guy really having a fight with Rubik's Cube?"

"Gu He, stop playing"

Suddenly hearing a familiar voice, he subconsciously looked up and saw the smiling face of Xiao Cheng, and immediately shouted in surprise.

"Store manager, when did you come back?"

"I just came back a while ago. How is the store now?"

"The store is still the same as before, but there have been a lot more customers recently, and it's a bit overwhelming."

Hearing what he said, Xiao Cheng joked with a smile.

"Then why do you still have time to play Rubik's Cube?"

"Store manager, you don't understand. I am conducting research. Do you understand the research?"

After hearing Gu He's sophistry, he just wanted to say: Haha, I believe you.

What a fucking research, if you want to play Rubik's Cube just say it, there are so many tricks.

He walked into the store and found Xiao Yi Xian.

Xiao Yi Xian is also quite surprised. I didn't expect Xiao Cheng to come back at this time.

"Store manager, are you back?"

"I can't do it if I don't come back. I have to come back and make pastries."

Although the system has not yet opened the function of recruiting apprentices or teaching pastry tasks, he must make the pastries himself.

"Has anything big happened to Wutan City recently? Tell me about it."

Upon hearing Xiao Cheng's inquiry, Xiao Yi Xian told him the story of the Xiao Clan transporting goods to Qingshan Town where the cakes were robbed.

This matter has been spread all over Wutan City. Basically, everything is said, but there are only a few people who understand that there is something fishy here.

After listening to what Xiao Yi Xian said, he rubbed his chin and thought for a while and muttered.

"There's nothing normal here."

He asked again casually.

"Xiao Clan Have you found out who stole the goods?"

She shook her head and said uncertainly, "I don't know yet, I'm probably still investigating."

"That's it. It seems that someone is targeting Xiao Clan."

He thought to himself.

But it doesn't matter to him. He can just make his own pastries and open his own shop in peace.

Only at this time the system prompt sounded.

Xiao Cheng knows that this must be a new mission.

When he read the new mission, he was completely confused, because this mission turned out to be about the robbery incident of the Xiao Clan.

Side Quest: As your first partner, won't you give me help? Please host investigate the truth of this incident.

Quest Reward: Unknown Quest Failure: The host can consider imprisoning Dark Room Quest Time: Seventy-two hours After reading the mission content, he blurted out a sentence to curse the system.

"System, you did this on purpose. I wanted to be honest, but you wanted me to cause trouble. What are your intentions?"

However, the system seemed to have disappeared and showed no response. Of course, in fact, he knew that the system must know about it, but he just didn't want to pay attention to him.

"System, you are really getting more and more naughty. Now that you have done this, you are asking me to investigate the truth of this matter. If you don't give me some help, where will I investigate?"

At this time, the system popped up and gave three prompts.

The host can investigate from three aspects. "Those three aspects, say"

He is not like those pig-footed hosts who have been tricked by the system and have to fawn over the system. Now he just gets angry when he gets angry. At worst, he will be tricked by the system again. Anyway, he is used to it.

First, the host can go to the Xiao Clan to understand the situation. Second, the host can go to the location of the incident to investigate. Third, the host can go to Qingshan Town Myriad Medicine Pavilion to investigate and maybe it will be interesting. Unexpected harvest After reading these three prompts from the system, he thought for a moment that Xiao Clan must go there. After all, he had to understand the details of the matter. As for investigating the place where the robbed goods were located, this was also a must.

There may be some clues left in the place where it was robbed to facilitate future investigation, but how could this be related to the Myriad Medicine Pavilion of Qingshan Town? Wasn't the goods this time shipped to the Myriad Medicine Pavilion?

He thought he might have fallen into a whirlpool.

"It seems that the system prompts me to go to the Myriad Medicine Pavilion to investigate for no reason. There must be something strange about this Myriad Medicine Pavilion."

Although the system always cheated him, sometimes it was very powerful. I thought this time it would remind him to go to the Myriad Medicine Pavilion to investigate. The robbery of the Xiao Clan cakes must have something to do with the Myriad Medicine Pavilion.

"Maybe it was Myriad Medicine Pavilion who did it?"

He was thinking, then Yue'er came over and said.

"Store manager, hee hee"

Seeing Yue'er coming over, he said with a smile.

"What do you want to do?"

"It's okay, I just want to look at the face of our handsome store manager."

"Haha"

He didn't believe what this girl said, she must be looking for him for something.

Since he was tricked by Zi Yan several times, he has learned well, so he is very calm about Yue'er's attentiveness.

Of course, if Xiao Cheng could really have a long memory, he would not be tricked.
