The girl who was punished by the gods counterattacked and became the group's favorite

Liya didn't expect that Tia would also praise her. For a moment, she was a little confused whether her painting was really beautiful, or these people were uneducated and thought her painting was good?

"Thank you. I hope I can help you." Liya had a decent smile on her face, but after looking around, her smile froze. "Weren't there two people just now?"

Pierre grinned. "They're about to go investigate. The situation in the village is so serious right now, and we didn't bring anything with us. We were greedy and ate a lot, but we ended up stuffing ourselves, so we went out to digest the food."

"And didn't you both say that there are only two families left in the village? There shouldn't be any danger." Fina added immediately afterwards.

A hint of suspicion flashed in Uncle Ao Zhen's eyes. Do these people really trust them so much?

Should I say these people are brainless, or...

"We've already had lunch, and we still have to continue investigating related matters. We were originally planning to send Xiao Lihua back home." Tia said as she walked over to Xiao Lihua and squatted down. "Shall we go back together?"

"Xiao Lihua is so young. She won't have anything to eat if she goes back alone. Why don't she stay with us?" Liya felt some sympathy when she saw Xiao Lihua's pitiful appearance.

Uncle Aozhen disagreed with Liya's kindness, "Xiao Lihua, how is your father?"

These words seemed to have opened a hole in the black sky. Tia was now certain that what Uncle Ou Zhen had said before about those monsters being the source of the infection was false.

If Uncle Okuma really believed that people turned into monsters because they were infected by other monsters, he would not have let Xiao Lihua in in the first place.

After all, although Xiao Lihua did not turn into a monster, she was in contact with her father who turned into a monster every day. This only means that Xiao Lihua might not be infected, but it does not mean that Xiao Lihua would not be contaminated with those things.

If civilians were disgusted by the consequences of this infection, they would definitely avoid it. From the moment Liya opened the door until now, Uncle Ouzhen and his family have never rejected Xiao Lihua, which shows that Uncle Ouzhen was lying.

If that's the case, then the water in the courtyard is no exception. Thinking even deeper, Uncle Ou Zhen was the one who delivered the message to the academy...

"Sister, sister, let's go." Xiao Lihua's crisp voice interrupted Tia's thoughts.

"Sorry, I was just thinking about your father's situation." Tia keenly noticed that Uncle Ouzhen's family's eyes were also on her, so she made up a random excuse.

"What do you think, sister? Do you want any treatment?" Xiao Lihua's eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked at Tia as if she had seen a savior.

"I don't have any other clues for now. I just think your father's situation is very special." Tia looked at Xiaolihua's bright eyes and then they dimmed. She suddenly felt a little guilty. She should have said something else.

"Well, Uncle Ao Zhen just asked about my father's condition, and I told him that I decided to go back."

Xiaolihua briefly recounted the conversation just now and opened her arms towards Tia.

Pierre squatted on the other side and opened his arms. "Little Lihua, do you want me to hold you?"

Xiao Lihua looked left and right, and finally walked towards Pierre.

A few people said goodbye to Uncle Ouzhen and his family, sent Xiao Lihua back, and then began wandering the streets again.

"What clues did you just collect?"

"Liya was very wary and reluctant to talk to me. I can only say that judging by the way she drew the map, she must have been drawing frequently, and her work was particularly quick and efficient."

"Xiao Lihua wasn't that wary of me. She knew that everyone turned into monsters because they drank the water, but when I asked who spread the news, she just said she didn't know and that they just followed the crowd.

When I asked Xiao Lihua why she didn't become like her father because she didn't drink water that day, she just said that she had eaten too much fruit, so she didn't feel thirsty and didn't drink water.

After noticing her father's abnormality, she also heard from others that water was the source of infection, so she stopped drinking water, which is why she is fine now. She also said that this is why she dared to go see her father.

But it's winter now, and even if there's fruit at home, there wouldn't be a lot of it stored. It's very suspicious."

Pierre didn't want to doubt such a young child, but he always felt that something was wrong.

"Could it be that children have small appetites, or that she has forgotten something?" Fina recalled Xiao Lihua's tenacity and felt that there should be nothing strange about Xiao Lihua.

“Combining what you two said, let me say it again.

What is certain now is that there is something wrong with Uncle Ouzhen's family. They knew that water was the source of infection but did not tell us, and even asked us to explore the possibility that this thing could be transmitted from person to person.

Liya's drawing skills may indeed be very good, which is why her paintings are particularly neat and clear, but her problem is not with the painting, but with the map.

Even if a child from an ordinary family needed to help their family with something, they wouldn't go to such a remote place. Liya had drawn the well that Xiaolihua had mentioned before. But now it was unclear whether Liya had actually been there or if Xiaolihua had told her about it.

And more importantly, the pit we visited on the map was indeed depicted as a pit. And based on Giselle's initial observations, we knew the pit was newly dug. This meant that Liya had recently gone out and visited the other side of the pit.

Now thinking back, when Xiao Lihua saw the mountain on our map before, she didn't raise any questions, which means there really was a mountain there before, but where did the mountain go?

"Xiao Lihua couldn't have flattened the mountain and dug such a large pit by herself. Someone must have helped. Who was that person? Secondly, why did they choose this location on the mountain? There must be other secrets underneath."

Tia spoke her thoughts seriously. As for who reported the information to the academy, it was just a guess, so she didn't tell anyone about it to avoid disturbing everyone.

"I was wondering why you were always distracted. It turns out you were thinking about so many things without realizing it." Fina sighed!

"Now we just have to wait for Giselle and Juno. I don't know what information we can get." Pierre looked at Aunt Nini's door not far away, waiting anxiously.
