Indeed, wild glass lilies were found. According to Zhongli, wild glass lilies have the effect of enhancing their fragrance by listening to beautiful songs.
But Zhongli can't sing, and Paimon is aware of this, so this important task falls on Ying.
When it comes to singing, Ying naturally thinks of Barbara, her idol in Mondstadt. The songs Barbara sings are the most melodious and beautiful songs she has ever heard.
Therefore... Ying sang, and the deceptive flower disguised as a glass lily couldn't stand it anymore, so it rose up from the ground and launched an attack on Ying.
Of course, Phantom Flower met a tragic end; she was no match for Ying.
Finally, after searching for a while, they found the wild glass lily again. Zhongli put it away and did not ask them to sing.
We're heading towards Liyue Harbor now. We've found the wild Glazed Lilies, so it's time to head back for dinner.
"correct."
At this moment, Zhongli suddenly remembered something and looked at Ying and Paimon, saying, "I suddenly remembered that I have something to take care of. I'm afraid you'll have to return to Liyue Harbor on your own."
"Huh? At this hour?" Paimon seemed a little surprised. They were almost at Liyue Harbor, so why did they suddenly have something to do?
However, Paimon was also loyal. She touched her stomach and felt that she wasn't particularly hungry yet, so she said, "There's nothing I can do about it. Zhongli, what are you doing? Let's go together."
This surprised Zhongli, who looked at Paimon with some surprise, because it was almost lunchtime and Paimon was going to be with her, which was not what she had imagined.
Although he was surprised for a moment, Zhongli quickly put on a gentle smile and looked at Paimon slowly, saying, "No need. This is neither a matter of the [Sending Off the Immortals Ceremony] nor a matter of the Hall of Rebirth."
"It's a personal matter, so I won't trouble you to come with me. If anything happens, I'll let you know as soon as possible."
Seeing that Zhongli intended to leave the group alone, Ying nodded slightly and said, "I understand. Then Paimon and I will go back first."
"If anything happens, remember to let us know in the group."
Seeing Zhongli's words, Paimon didn't say much, but her eyes were full of curiosity. At this point... what was Zhongli planning to do?
"Hmm." Zhongli nodded, then turned around and slowly walked in another direction.
After Zhongli had gone some distance, Paimon looked at Ying with some curiosity and said, "To be honest, I'm really curious. What important matter is it that Zhongli needs to handle personally?"
"You know, he'll actually go and freeload a meal when it's close to mealtime."
Yes, in Paimon's opinion, besides not taking Mora with him when he goes out, Zhongli is also particularly serious about one thing: he will definitely go out for a free meal during mealtimes.
As for why it's called "mooching meals," it's because Zhongli never pays the bill when they eat; instead, everyone else fights to pay.
To be honest, Paimon has always wanted to learn this skill, but he just hasn't been able to!
"I don't know." Ying was also unsure why Zhongli would choose to leave at this time. Was it to avoid suspicion and prevent the immortals and the Seven Stars from seeing her?
Considering Zhongli's identity, Ying felt that it was quite normal for him not to approach Liyue Harbor at this critical juncture.
"Come on, let's go eat first."
Paimon patted his stomach; it was almost lunchtime, and it was time to eat.
Ying nodded slightly, and then she prepared to walk towards Liyue Harbor.
On the way, Ying suddenly sensed something was wrong. Her gaze sharpened instantly, and without saying a word, she drew her bladeless sword and pointed it in a certain direction.
"What's wrong?!"
Paimon was still in a daze, unaware of what had happened, but she obediently hid behind Ying.
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, I'm not an enemy." At this moment, a Tadalia jumped out from the bushes.
Yes, it's unclear how Tadalia hid in the bushes, but after he jumped out, he skillfully raised his hands to indicate that he had no hostile intentions whatsoever.
"Oh! Young master?!" Paimon looked at Dadalia, who jumped out of the bushes, with some surprise. He was clearly not expecting the other party to be here.
Isn't Liyue Harbor currently on high alert? How did he get out?
Paimon, who had access to the chat group, was well aware of just how tense things were in Liyue Harbor. He estimated that the Celestials and the Seven Stars would officially begin their meeting in about two hours.
At this time, Liyue Harbor was under extremely tight security.
In other words, not even a fly can leave Liyue Harbor at this time!
What, a wild Tartaglia jumped out of the bushes? Does that make sense? It's clearly not!
Therefore, Paimon watched Tartaglia warily, feeling that the other party must be harboring some bad intentions, which is why he came out of Liyue Harbor.
"What are you doing here?" Ying had a similar thought. She looked at D'Artagnan and questioned him directly, "Are you planning something bad?"
With that, Ying pointed her bladeless sword at D'Artagnan, as if to say, "If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, then I'm going to attack."
D'Artagnan looked helpless. He naturally didn't want to run into a skilled opponent like Ying, so he quickly said, "I have a big order today, a big order worth nearly ten million Mora."
"I don't know what's going on in Liyue Harbor today. All the good debt collectors we have here are trapped."
"I'm out here now to collect my debt. If I don't come out today, I'll suffer huge losses."
Yes, D'Artagnan once again used the familiar excuse: he was out collecting debts and had no 'scheme' involved.
"Ten million Mora?!" Even Paimon, who was used to big scenes, couldn't help but widen his eyes and click his tongue in amazement. "Do you Fatui people make that much money collecting debts?"
Tartaglia smiled gently and crossed his arms, saying casually, "Otherwise, why do you think I would leave Liyue Harbor? I should be eating at the Northern Bank right now."
"Sigh, never mind. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."
D'Artagnan was clearly in a hurry; in fact, immediately after saying those words, he took off running in a certain direction.
Paimon tried to stop him, but the other party was too fast; there was no way to stop him.
"Damn it, he's definitely up to something!" Paimon stomped his foot in mid-air, clearly distrusting D'Artagnan. This guy was definitely suspicious!
"Hmm." Ying nodded slightly, watching Tadalia's departing figure, and said, "Do you remember what Linni and Lynette told us this morning?"
"Huh? What did you say?" Paimon was slightly taken aback, her eyes revealing a hint of intelligence; she had clearly forgotten everything that happened that morning.
Seeing Paimon's expression, Ying also revealed a subtle smile, seemingly unsure of what to say for a moment.
Ying added helplessly, "Linny told us that Tartaglia's participation in the [Ceremony of Sending the Immortals] was for ulterior motives, and that he is plotting a conspiracy to overthrow Liyue."
"Huh? That can't be right!" Paimon exclaimed, realizing what was happening. She added, "Didn't Lynette say there was something delicious at the Golden House?"
"But when we went to the Golden House, we didn't see any food, and we were politely asked to leave."
At this point, Paimon stomped her foot again, clearly very angry, then belatedly realized, "Wait, the Golden House?! The direction that guy D'Artagnan went seems to be the Golden House!"
Paimon looked in the direction D'Artagnan had gone and suddenly felt that this couldn't be a coincidence.
Linnie said that D'Artagnan had a conspiracy, and Linette even pointed out that there was delicious food in the Golden House. Could it be that they wanted to reveal some information to her?
“The Golden House…” Ying watched D'Artagnan’s departing figure and said decisively, “Let’s follow them and see. I suspect something might have happened at the Golden House.”
Although Ying didn't know what Tartaglia was doing at the Golden House, she was surprised that he left Liyue Harbor at this critical juncture and headed to the Golden House.
There's a high chance they're up to something. Luminous, who has a very good relationship with Keqing and Ningguang, will naturally help Liyue stop Tartaglia's conspiracy.
According to Su Hao, no matter what the Fools are going to do, the important thing is to stop them!
In major operations, whatever the Fools are going to do, they are basically just causing trouble.
"Traveler! Traveler!!!" At that moment, Paimon suddenly remembered something and shouted, "I suddenly know what Tartaglia is going to do!"
"Huh?" Luminous, who was just about to take action, suddenly stopped and looked at Paimon with some curiosity, as if she was very curious about how Paimon had guessed what Tartaglia wanted to do.
Paimon retorted angrily, "What could the Golden House possibly contain? It's definitely Mora! That guy D'Artagnan is probably planning to rob the Golden House!!"
"His so-called ten million Mora is most likely a way to make a quick buck in the Golden House, that despicable D'Artagnan!!!"
Clearly, Paimon believed that D'Artagnan's purpose in going to the Golden House was to steal Mora from inside.
If it weren't for that purpose, why would he go to the Golden House if he had nothing better to do?
"………………" Ying looked speechless, as if she didn't know what to say.
Why bother robbing Mora from the Golden House? How much can one person like D'Artagnan rob? The Northern Bank robbed Mora much faster.
Not only is it legitimate, but people also proactively deposit their Mora into it.
D'Artagnan, as the executor of the Fools, had nothing better to do than steal Mora from the Golden House.
Chapter 455 The Golden House
Although it was unclear what D'Artagnan intended to do at the Golden House, both Luminous and Paimon rushed there immediately.
They also shared the news in the chat group.
Paimon: "Oh no!! Oh no!!! We've spotted Tartaglia!"
[Yae no Miko: "You saw D'Artagnan? What's wrong? Is that surprising? Don't you see D'Artagnan often?"]
[Yura: "No, this is clearly the attitude expected of a formal meeting. Paimon, what did you see?"]
[Abedo: "Was it seen inside Liyue Harbor?"]
[Luminous: "No, it's outside Liyue Harbor. We suspect Tartaglia is heading to the Golden House."]
[Nagarjuna: "A golden house?"]
[Fushe: "The place where the Emperor used his divine power to create Mora."]
[Ayaka Kamisato: "That's the only place on the Teyvat continent where Mora can be created. What does Tartaglia plan to do there?"]
[Ke Qing: "What?! He's going to the Golden House?!?!"]
[Keqing: "@Ying@Paimon, is this for real?! Did you see him heading to the Golden House!?"]
[Ke Qing: "Damn it, the immortals are almost here, and we can't get away!"]
[Ying: "No, it's just a suspicion that he's planning to go to the Golden House. This morning, two of my friends came to warn us that D'Artagnan is up to something."]
[Ying: "And one of them told Paimon that there's delicious food in the Golden House, and that he should go check it out if he has the chance."]
Paimon: "Then we went there in the morning, only to be told by the Thousand Rock Army that there was nothing good to eat there."
Paimon: "I felt like I'd been tricked, so I went with the Traveler and Zhongli to Dihua Isle to look for wild glass lilies."
[Gui Zhong: "Wild Glass Lilies? Oh~ these~ there used to be so many in Liyue, but now there are fewer."]
Paimon: "Yeah, yeah, Zhongli led us to a wild glass lily, and said that singing would make its fragrance stronger, so..."
[Luminous: "Alright, now's not the time to talk about this! We're heading towards the Golden House. If Tartaglia tries anything, we need to stop him immediately."]
[Su Hao: "Wait, what's wrong with Yu?"]
[Su Hao: "Ella is very curious, I'll ask her on her behalf."]
