Leaving Piltover

Originally, I just wanted to find Teacher for Vi and Caitlyn, but we ended up having a lot of valuable conversations, especially with Camille becoming a great companion as we were saying goodbye. 🍓 ⋆ 🍦 🎀 🎀 🍦 ⋆ 🍓

Riven and I said goodbye to Camille and returned to the Blue Fragrance Manor, intending to ask Stivan for help in finding Teresa's brother.

He saw our excited faces and didn't know what had happened. When he heard that Camille had become our companion, even this calm old man was surprised.

Upon arriving at the police station, I saw the newly appointed police chief addressing the officers. New officers always make a strong first impression, and this station was no exception.

Upon seeing us arrive, Vi blew me a kiss with her remaining left hand, indicating that her right arm had already been delivered to the Philoss House.

The sheriff was quite surprised. He recognized the Phiros Family Head and quickly came over to greet him, "Greetings, Lord Stivan. What brings you here in person?"

"These two friends need your help, but they're worried you won't agree, so they asked me to help them."

"These two are my benefactors, how could I not help them?"

"Oh, in that case, you two talk, I'll just go check out the Philoss House."

Stivan glanced at Wei, then left. I was puzzled; I didn't know this person at all, so how did he become his benefactor?

That's all for today. Everyone, back to your positions.

The sheriff called out and then led me to the office, the same room where Jorba had been before.

Through self-introduction, I learned that he was Jorba's cousin and one of the Twenty-Eight Chairs. He happened to be present when Jorba was tried that day, which is why he regarded us as his benefactors.

I explained my purpose, and he took out his database to investigate for me. He found that there were many Demacia who had migrated here, but there was only one blond-haired, fair-skinned person.

The man's name is Lyle. He settled in Piltover 33 years ago, and he hasn't come to verify his identity for four years.

In this situation, the person has either already left or passed away.

It seems I'm destined not to find Ezreal on this trip. I'll ask Tiana in Demacia later; since she's of the Charming Women bloodline, she'll definitely know.

We took the watches, said goodbye to the new sheriff and Vi, and set off to leave.

Vi walked him a long way, all the way to the outskirts of Piltover, and still refused to go back. Her eyes were red, and she didn't look like the tough interrogator she used to be.

"Let's go back. It's not like we're saying goodbye forever. We'll probably be back soon."

"I really wish you could live here. We could solve cases, fight, and seek thrills together every day."

"What a restless pink-haired girl! Forgive my bluntness, but you're too weak right now. You should practice your skills with the Gray Lady. We'll put you to the test when we get back."

"No problem, I want to fight Riven. If I win, you're mine!"

"Then you definitely can't beat me!" Riven was extremely serious.

"Hey you two, wait a minute! Do I look like an object? Whoever wins keeps it!"

We laughed; though we had only known each other for a short time, we felt like old friends.

"By the way, while you're learning martial arts, also take good care of Jorba. Although he didn't raise you, he's always been concerned about you."

"Hmm... we'll see. That old guy kept it from me for so long, and he's been going against me at work the whole time. It makes me angry!"

We laughed again. This time it really was time to say goodbye. Wei kept waving her left arm to us until she disappeared from sight.

My week-long trip to Piltover has come to a temporary end.

It wasn't a long time, but I had a lot of experience and met many people.

The relationship between Jorba, Vi, and Jinx forms the main thread of everything; the process is somewhat sad, but the outcome is quite good.

Although many questions remain unanswered, such as Jinx's weapon and the person secretly helping her, meeting Camille, who shares the same dreams as us, is a worthwhile gain.

Another thing worth mentioning is that Li Yuanbao and Gragas were also transmigrators. I don't know if there are any other transmigrators, so I need to keep a close eye on them in the future.

The addition of many Hextech gadgets, such as motorcycles, watches, and pistols, makes our journey more convenient.

In the end, however, the precious Primal Crystal became a burden, which was unexpected.

Riven didn't turn on her motorcycle. She sat behind me and hugged me, saying that this would reduce wear and tear, since the way we used it might break down someday.

Of course, I just felt she was taking advantage of me, so I reluctantly accepted it!

"Where do we go next?" Riven asked.

"I was originally planning to visit Ionia, but now that I have the Primal Crystal, I need to find it a safe place first."

"Why don't we give these crystals to Darius? He lives with the army most of the time, so he should be safer."

"That would distract him. Let's go to Bilgewater. Mona said Tam went there. We can leave the crystal with him for safekeeping; I think that's a better option."

"Where is Bilgewater?"

"It's on the map. We just need to follow the flight path. With Hextech Motorcycle, we can go anywhere, on land, sea, and air, right?"

"Alright! Let's explore Runeterra then, haha!"

Actually, we won't get lost even without a map. Zaun is a major trading port with many ships going there; we just need to follow them.

Beautiful sea, magnificent sunrises and sunsets, and a comfortable sea breeze—this is what we imagined our voyage would be like, but in reality, it was terrible.

The salty sea breeze combined with the scorching sun made us feel incredibly uncomfortable, even though we had developed Flame Wind Force.

Moreover, even with maps and waterways, we can't travel at will because ships are much slower than us.

Once you pass this ship, you can't see the ones in front anymore, even from high altitudes the visibility isn't very good.

Finally, we decided that when we found the boat again, we would talk to the captain and ask for a ride.

With all our might, we finally found a grain cargo ship before nightfall, but before we could even get on board, the crew pointed their guns at us.

Who goes there!

"Please don't misunderstand, we just want to travel to Bilgewater and hope to get a ride."

"What are you riding? It looks like Piltover police motorcycle, how can it fly?!"

"This thing can fly, but it's not very practical on the sea. Will it let us land there?"

"Wait, I'll go get the captain. You can talk to him."

The crew went to inform them, and we waited high in the air. Soon a man with a thick beard but a shaved Bald Man came over.

This person was very generous and agreed to our request in just a few words. Riven and I finally "landed," even though today had been a terrible day for us.

The captain brought us fresh food and said that the ship had been away from Zaun for eight days, and he was quite surprised to learn that we had arrived here in just one day.

Even after taking many detours, if we don't go in the wrong direction, I estimate we can catch up with them in half a day.
