Chapter 13: The members of the Rose Society read "The Three-Body Problem" and were immedia
Navia took the note and glanced at its contents.
The note contained some clues from the Steambird newspaper about "Xiao Xiao": handwriting, word choice habits, and submission dates.
These seemingly trivial details are key to finding this mysterious writer.
Her fingers lightly touched the edge of the note, her eyes focused and deep, as if trying to decipher more information from these simple clues.
The Steambird Newspaper's inaugural fiction column solicited novels through a nationwide open search across Teyvat.
This means that all manuscripts are collected by Steambird, escorted by the Clockwork Agency, and finally delivered to the Steambird Newspaper Editorial Department.
In other words, no one ever saw Xiao Xiao's true face during the entire process.
Navia looked at the copy of the manuscript handed to her by Oufu with a surprised expression. Miles and Silver also took a copy of "The Three-Body Problem" one after another.
"This novel is amazing!"
"Yes, it created a complete world, no, it even created a complete universe."
"The Three-Body Problem game, VR technology, and the cars, automatic weapons, and other items that have never appeared in Teyvat before are simply amazing!"
"The layout of the countries inside is somewhat similar to our Teyvat continent, but it seems that the countries on this blue planet are much larger than those on our Teyvat continent!"
"Yes, a small city has hundreds of thousands of people, while our whole country only has a few million. It's hard to believe how so many people live in one city."
"The ETO organization inside seems somewhat similar to the Fatui. I've heard that the Fatui are also carrying out a crazy plan and will stop at nothing to achieve it."
"Yes, this 'Xiao Xiao' is really amazing. She created such a grand world view in just a short amount of space."
"But this is way too short! It's only a tiny bit!"
After reading the manuscript, the members of the Rose Society remembered that Ou Fu was still sitting in front of them.
Navia touched her nose somewhat embarrassedly, squinted at Ouf, and said apologetically, "Sorry, I got too engrossed in watching."
“It’s alright. When I first saw these manuscripts, I reacted the same way you did,” Ou Fu nodded and said with a smile.
"Dear Editor-in-Chief Ou Fu, although it may be presumptuous, I must raise my question: why doesn't your Steambird Newspaper have the contact information for someone who can write such a brilliant novel?" The old gentleman, Miles, stood up, saluted Ou Fu, and said softly.
"Uh... well, this is mainly because this is the first time our Steambird Newspaper has solicited articles on such a large scale. We had no experience, so we also collected articles without the authors' contact information. I happened to see this article and thought it was of very good quality and had a novel subject matter, so I took the liberty of publishing it."
"That's why I wanted to ask everyone in the Rose Society to help me find this 'Xiao Xiao' teacher and ask him to continue providing articles for our Steambird Newspaper."
Upon hearing Of's words, Navia frowned slightly. She turned her gaze to Of, a hint of confusion flickering in her eyes: "These clues are probably not enough to find him. Is he intentionally concealing his identity?"
Ou Fu shook her head, a hint of helplessness in her eyes: "We can't be sure about that, but one thing is certain: this 'Xiao Xiao' teacher is definitely still in Baisong Town."
Luo Xiao stood to the side, and upon hearing Ou Fu's words, his brows furrowed, and a sense of unease swept through his heart.
Has she already guessed something?
No wonder he's the editor-in-chief of Steambird Newspaper.
His gaze fell on the note in Navia's hand, then turned to Ofouf, pondering to himself.
A glint of shrewdness flashed in Luo Xiao's eyes. To further verify his suspicions, he pretended to ponder and continued to ask, "Have you found any suspicious clues? For example, the last place he was seen, or his unusual contact with certain people?"
After a moment of contemplation, Ou Fu slowly said, "We found the address in the Steambird Newspaper's records where he sent the manuscript of 'The Three-Body Problem'—it was Baisong Town..."
Upon hearing this crucial clue, a flash of understanding crossed Luo Xiao's eyes.
So that's why Ou Fu commissioned the Thorn Rose Society to conduct the investigation, and it's also the main basis for her certainty that she is still in Baisong Town.
Because there are only a few submission points, few people would travel a long distance to submit their work to other submission points, so the location of the submitting author can be determined from the submission point.
Thinking of this, Luo Xiao nodded, her tone firm and sincere: "Okay, we will start our investigation from this clue. Please rest assured, we will do our best to find Teacher Xiao Xiao."
A grateful smile appeared on Ou Fu's face, her eyes filled with trust in the Thorn Rose Society: "Thank you very much, Mr. Luo Xiao. Our Steambird Newspaper has full confidence in the strength of your Thorn Rose Society."
Navia waved her hand gently, her voice soft and polite: "You're welcome. If anyone should thank you, it's you."
After hearing this, Ou Fu looked puzzled: "Eh? Why do you say that, Miss Navia?"
Navia gently stroked the slightly worn tabletop of the Rosewood Club, a deep melancholy in her eyes. Her voice was low and powerful, each word seeming to weigh heavily on every corner of the room:
“Since my father’s misfortune, most newspapers in Fontaine have been slandering him, but only your Steambird newspaper has upheld the truthfulness of news.”
"It is because of your fair reporting that the residents of Baisong Town were able to see the truth of the matter and choose to stand on our side."
She took a deep breath, a hint of determination and gratitude flashing in her eyes: "If it weren't for the Steambird newspaper's insistence on reporting the truth, our Rose Society might have already become a mere shell of its former self."
As Ou listened to Navia's words, her brows furrowed, and her voice revealed dissatisfaction and indignation: "I am ashamed of my colleagues. In order to attract attention, they did not hesitate to fabricate facts and maliciously report, causing you so much harm."
Her eyes were firm, and her tone resolute: "Rest assured, Steambird Newspaper will continue to uphold truthful reporting and let more people know the truth. I firmly believe that your father is not that kind of person, and the truth will eventually come to light."
Navia looked at the editor-in-chief in front of her, her eyes filled with deep gratitude.
When her father, Carles, was in trouble, Ove was one of the few who insisted on journalistic truth, refusing to follow the crowd or distort the facts for the sake of popularity.
She silently vowed to complete this task as soon as possible, not only for the Rose Thorn Society, but also to repay Ou Fu for her trust and support of the Rose Thorn Society.
A resolute light shone in her eyes. She knew that this was not just a job, but a responsibility, a pursuit of truth and justice.
Ou Fu nodded gently, a hint of relief in her eyes: "I know that you, the Rose Society, will always uphold justice. Your father, Mr. Kares, is a respectable man."
"I believe that no matter how many lies there are, they cannot obscure the light of the truth."
A resolute glint flashed in Navia's eyes: "Yes, no matter how many difficulties we encounter, we, the Rose Society, will never give up. We will prove with our actions that the truth will never be what it seems on the surface."
Their eyes met in the air, as if they had reached a tacit understanding without speaking.
After a brief farewell to Navia and Luo Xiao, Ou Fu's figure gradually disappeared at the door, leaving behind a faint sense of expectation and trust.
“Young Miss, we are all ready.” Silver’s voice was deep and powerful, like an echo from the abyss, full of unwavering determination.
Myles smiled and nodded, his voice gentle yet firm: "We will fully support Luo Xiao's actions."
Navia turned around, her eyes sparkling with gratitude.
She knew that at this critical moment, having such a group of loyal and wise partners was her greatest support.
"Then, let's set off." Luo Xiao adjusted his frameless glasses, his voice filled with determination and resolve, looking every bit like a famous detective.
He couldn't say for sure about other things, but he was naturally very familiar with finding his own work.
Navia nodded, her posture elegant and firm, and she walked out of the office first with light steps.
Luo Xiao, Silver, and Myles followed closely behind, and the group headed toward the manuscript submission point in Baisong Town provided by Ou Fu. Their figures gradually disappeared into the distance in the corridor.
