Genshin Impact, Raiden Shin joins the chat group

This immediately drew everyone's attention, and they discovered that D'Artagnan had entered at some point.

"Huh? Young Master?!" Paimon looked at D'Artagnan in surprise and said, "How did you get in? And why didn't you knock?"

Ella and Black Ella also looked at Dadalia with some hostility; the other party was no 'friend' at all.

Hu Tao climbed over the wall without knocking because she got along well with everyone and they were neighbors, so she didn't care at all.

Unlike Dadalia, the young master has already said that the other party is not trustworthy at this stage.

Of course, neither Ella nor Black Ella would trust the Fatui, and neither would anyone here.

“I wanted to knock too, but the door wasn’t closed.” Tadalia seemed to sense the 'danger’ and quickly explained, “So I came in to warn you and also to find Mr. Zhongli and the Traveler.”

"However... it seems that Mr. Zhongli is not here."

With that, D'Artagnan turned his gaze to Ying, making his purpose very clear.

The first target is Zhongli, and the second target is Ying.

“Zhongli, he went to have dinner with his friends.” Paimon said somewhat irritably, “He said that the ceremony of sending off the immortals cannot be rushed, and that food is the most important thing for people, so rest is necessary.”

"With that, he left us alone, and we don't know what delicious food he went to eat."

A glint flashed in D'Artagnan's eyes, and his pupils darted around, seemingly quite surprised by the news.

According to the Fools' intelligence network, Mr. Zhongli's whereabouts are now unknown.

This is normal; right now, it's simply impossible for the Fatui intelligence network to operate effectively within Liyue Harbor.

Both the Thousand Rock Army and the people of Liyue are on guard against the Fatui. It would be strange if they could still gather intelligence under these circumstances as they had before.

But in D'Artagnan's view, the places Mr. Zhongli has been to at this stage are only a few, and the most likely places are either the Hall of Rebirth or Su Hao's house.

Mr. Zhongli is no longer at the ancestral hall, nor is he at Su Hao's house. Paimon says he went out to eat with friends.

Which friend is it? D'Artagnan was actually quite curious, but never mind~ Mr. Zhongli has just too many friends.

Going to find them one by one would be too deliberate, and Tartaglia didn't want to attract the attention of the Liyue Seven Stars again because of her actions.

Ying then looked at D'Artagnan and asked, "What do you want with us?"

"Oh dear~" D'Artagnan slapped his forehead, as if to say how he could have forgotten about it. He smiled at Ying and said, "It's nothing, I just wanted to give you something."

"Here, thank you for your help today. This bag of Mora is worth about several hundred thousand. I don't know if it can cover your Mora expenses for today."

With that, D'Artagnan tossed a bag of Mora to Firefly.

Ying didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the hundreds of thousands of Mora. She asked with some doubt, "How did you know?"

Ying was somewhat puzzled and also became wary, because he felt that Dadalia's coming to deliver Mora probably meant he knew about what had happened to him and Zhongli that day.

D'Artagnan chuckled and said, "Although I did nothing at the Northern Bank, I'm still wondering why no one came to settle Mr. Zhongli's accounts today."

"Considering what happened to us Winter Soldiers recently, I think you probably experienced something similar."

"So I personally came to deliver Mora to your door. How about that? Aren't you touched?"

D'Artagnan chuckled, looking forward to seeing Ying's expression.

"..." Ying weighed the Mora, then shook her head slightly and said, "Not enough, we're still short by a few hundred thousand Mora."

"???" Several question marks popped up above D'Artagnan's head.

Chapter 451 Oh, it's Zhongli. That's alright then.

"This...you used nearly a million Mora in just one day???" Even D'Artagnan couldn't help but be surprised at this moment.

If his intelligence network is correct, Mr. Zhongli and the traveler bought very few things today; most of it was probably just deposits.

His bag of Mora was quite full, but it wasn't enough.

Although one million mora is a piece of cake for the Northern Bank, this is just the beginning, isn't it?

“Yes.” Ying nodded slightly, then added, “Actually, we also need to include what we ate at noon, as well as what Mr. Zhongli bought.”

"Because I couldn't send the bills to the Northern Bank, I paid for most of Mr. Zhongli's expenses today."

Upon hearing the name Mr. Zhongli, D'Artagnan looked much relieved. He then nodded slightly, took out another small bag of Mora from his pocket, and tossed it to Ying, saying, "That's all I have."

"I'm sorry to trouble you again today, traveler. After I finish dealing with some miscellaneous matters at the Northern Bank and clear my name of the crime of murdering the Rock King Emperor."

"I believe the reputation of the Northern Bank will be regained by the people of Liyue, and then you can have them send the bills to the Northern Bank."

Ying accepted the small bag of Mora and found that it contained exactly a few hundred thousand Mora, which was probably the pocket money that D'Artagnan carried with her.

An executive officer like him, a fool, would certainly carry some Mora with him in case of unforeseen circumstances.

Paimon, however, asked with some doubt, "Mr. Zhongli's daily expenses are so high, is that really alright???"

Previously, Paimon only knew that Mr. Zhongli liked to "buy, buy, buy", but he didn't know how much he spent in total.

Now, wow, Paimon finally knows what it truly means to recklessly squander Mora.

Throughout the day, besides the official ceremony of sending off the immortals, Zhongli also bought some antiques and stones that seemed to have no practical use.

Even more outrageous was that a single rock cost 30,000 Mora! Paimon exclaimed, "Why don't you just rob someone?"

The shop owner explained that the stone was transported from the Abyss of the Rocky Mountains, so it's normal for it to be a bit more expensive. He added that there might even be some rare treasures inside the stone.

Selling 30,000 Mora is a very reasonable thing.

Ying readily paid Mora, Zhongli put the stone away without a care in the world, while Paimon seemed completely bewildered.

"Hahahaha, of course, no problem." Dadalia laughed, glanced at Su Hao not far away, and finally focused his gaze on Ying, saying slowly, "Because gold always shines."

“Someone as outstanding as Mr. Zhongli must have his own reasons for doing this.”

"Alright, it's getting late, and I'm about to leave. Traveler, if you have time tonight, come to the Northern Bank and get some more Mora to take with you, to prevent today's incident from happening again."

With that, Dadalia left without saying goodbye to Su Hao and the others.

“There’s a problem.” Hisaki Shinobu spoke up. After D'Artagnan left, her gaze sharpened slightly as she said, “As expected, he values ​​the Sending-Off-the-Immortals Ceremony so much; he’s clearly eyeing something.”

“Otherwise, he would never have been so enthusiastic. Moreover, given his usual style, he should be chatting with us now, instead of just leaving like this.”

Coral Palace Heart Sea nodded slightly. She could also see that Dadalia was not as enthusiastic towards them as before.

Or rather, the fact that he consciously kept his distance from them suggests that the other party is very likely up to something.

Everyone here is intelligent and adept at noticing things in small details.

"However, what he can gain from the Ascension Ceremony is the goodwill of the people of Liyue and the trust of the Seven Stars of Liyue."

Mona crossed her arms and watched D'Artagnan's departing figure, then continued, "But in the long run, this is indeed very advantageous for the Fatui."

"Because at this stage, it's beneficial and harmless to be on good terms with Liyue, and... I always feel that the Fatui seem to know something, which is why I've become on good terms with Liyue."

Mona knew very well that the Rock King Emperor was not dead, and was even holding a funeral for her.

Therefore, Mona felt that the Fools must have known this as well, even though she didn't know what they had been planning.

The Fatui's overtures were not without reason. The Geo Archon had not died, and Liyue was beginning to flourish. The already powerful Liyue would become even more powerful.

At this critical juncture, who would want to mess with such a powerful Liyue?

When Kuki Shinobu and Sango Miyako heard Mona's words, they nodded in agreement, indicating that it was possible, but the probability was too small.

After all, a leopard can't change its spots, and the Fools must have a conspiracy behind this, though they themselves aren't quite sure what it is.

After all, the personalities of the Fatui Enforcers change too much. Even if their goal is to collect the Heart of God, there are also guys like the Doctor who, after obtaining the Heart of God, immediately begin their own plans.

Simply put, the Heart of God is part of the Winter Queen's plan, and while Tartaglia is indeed loyal to the Winter Queen.

But whether he had his own ulterior motives or not, nobody knew.

The Fools' actions are indeed very strange right now, and we cannot make a final judgment based on previous information.

Having learned their lesson from the ladies, the stragglers, and the PhDs, Hisahi Shinobu and Sango Miyako Kokoro wouldn't easily draw conclusions.

Hisahi Shinobu, Sangokoro Kokoro, and Mona were not idiots; on the contrary, they were all very smart, so the three of them had a very heated discussion.

Mona was very interested in this, because if they came up with anything, she could sell the information to the Seven Stars of Liyue.

Everyone will make money from Mora then! Although Hisagi Shinobu and Sango Miyako no Kokoro don't think much of Mora.

Earning Mora is incredibly easy for the former, while the latter is a living goddess priestess from the island of Haiqi, who governs a territory.

Only I am that ordinary person, who has to work hard to earn Mora to support myself.

"…………"

"……………………"

Ella and Black Ella remained silent, their gazes fixed on Su Hao, as if asking if they could even speak.

Su Hao chose to remain silent. Sometimes, knowing too much, especially when surrounded by intelligent people, isn't a good thing.

After a brief conversation, everyone decided to eat at Wanmintang Restaurant because Paimon had said he was starving!

Instead of discussing what the Fools are plotting, let's go eat first! We can discuss it slowly after we finish eating.

And so, Su Hao and his group went to Wanmintang for dinner again.

Meanwhile, D'Artagnan also returned to the Northern Bank. As soon as he arrived, a female Fool greeted him.

"Young Master, I have found out where Mr. Zhongli is. He is still going to the same old place to drink tea and listen to stories," the female fool reported quickly.

However, D'Artagnan no longer cared about this. He sat in his chair and looked at his subordinates, saying, "This matter is no longer important."

"The most important thing right now is, did you hear what Mr. Zhongli said to the travelers today?"

D'Artagnan's expression was very serious. Everything he was doing on the surface was just a pretense; everything he was doing was for the purpose of obtaining the immortal body of the Rock King Emperor.

“I heard that.” The female fool nodded and said, “However, none of it concerned the Rock King Emperor’s immortal body. Most of it was just the rambling of that UFO.”

"But... the traveler seems to have noticed that I was waiting."

The woman was somewhat worried, because she feared that their actions would cause the executor's plan to fail.

“That traveler?” D'Artagnan stroked his chin, the image of Ying flashing through his mind. She was indeed a troublesome person.

Not only is the opponent strong, but they are also someone who is deeply trusted by Su Hao and the Seven Stars of Liyue.

The Laminariat was transformed into a treasure trove thanks to the help of the other party and the alchemist from Mondstadt.

As for the unidentified flying object next to the traveler, well... the other party doesn't need to care at all.
