Elf: I, the Lord of Ghosts, lead the Night Parade of Hundred Ghosts

"Ask them both..."

After purchasing the boat ticket, Xia Chan opened the Lingxin software and sent messages about the Summer Carnival to his close friends Lin Qing and Ling Shu respectively.

Perhaps it was because of the sudden death of his parents that Xia Chan's personality was affected, and he became a bit withdrawn from the lively and cheerful him. He likes to be alone and doesn't like to get along with others. He has very few friends, and the only two people he can call his best friends are Lin Qing and Ling Shu, who have the same temper as him.

However, Xia Chan does not think there is anything wrong with this. Although it is often said that "more friends mean more paths", in his opinion, the number of friends does not depend on "quantity" but "quality". Two or three close friends are enough.

Buzz! Buzz! ...

Not long after, Xia Chan's phone vibrated continuously, and Lin Qing and Ling Shu both replied to his messages.

Their responses were very similar, and both said they had read the relevant reports.

After seeing the two people's replies, Xia Chan went straight to the point. After saying that he had already signed up for the competition, he asked the two if they had any thoughts on signing up for the competition. If so, they could go together.

Unfortunately, both of them politely declined Xia Chan's invitation as they had already made plans for their summer vacation.

Lin Qing's father works as a forest ranger in a small forest near Jincheng. Lin Qing wants to find his father, train elves in that forest, and try to capture a second elf of his own. He cannot go to Liuli Islands to participate in the competition.

Many first-year high school students have not yet captured a second Pokémon. It is quite rare to find a first-year high school student like Xia Chan who has captured four Pokémon by the end of the first semester of the first year of high school.

Ling Shu was born in the only Red Star Gym and Lingtian Gym in Jincheng. He has not yet experienced the feeling of being short of money. This summer vacation, he and his sister Ling Ye will go to his grandmother's house in Shangtian City, and they cannot go to the Liuli Islands.

Although Xia Chan felt a little regretful, he quickly accepted the reality and decided to go to Liuli Islands alone to participate in the competition.

Afterwards, Xia Chan chatted with Lin Qing and Ling Shu for a while.

After finishing the chat with the two, Xia Chan put down his phone and tidied up the messy house...

Two days later, at the southern port of Jincheng.

"It's a nice day, a good day to go out to sea..."

In the waiting room near the port, Xia Chan looked at the blue sea and sky ahead through the transparent glass cover, and smiled softly and murmured unconsciously.

Maybe it’s because I grew up in Jincheng, a small coastal city, so every time I see the sea and the summer cicadas I feel very comfortable.

"Dear passengers, please note that Jiaolong 9 flight is about to arrive at Jincheng South Port. Please be prepared and board the ship on time..."

Just as Xia Chan was staring at the waves in a daze, loud and clear broadcast voices rang out one after another.

Jiaolong Flight 9 is the ferry that Xia Chan is going to take on this trip.

Upon hearing the announcement, Xia Chan immediately stood up and walked out of the waiting room.

At the same time, many people in the waiting room made the same move.

Some people's movements are even faster than those of summer cicadas.

Following the crowd, Xia Chan quickly walked out of the waiting room and came to the boarding platform.

The platform is large enough to accommodate thousands of people at the same time.

Woohoo——

Not long after, the sound of a whistle was heard, and the Jiaolong No. 9 ferry appeared, approaching the boarding platform from far away at a very fast speed.

When Jiaolong 9 approached the platform and lowered the boarding ladder, the passengers who had already lined up showed their tickets and boarded the ship in an orderly manner. They entered the corresponding rooms according to the instructions of the staff or signs on the ship...
