But Nina quickly calmed down and led Su Hao and his group toward the Fools' stronghold.

On the way, Nina explained to Su Hao that because they had been cooperating with Fontaine for many years, the Fools had many bases in this area.

In a sense, the headquarters of the House of Hearths was established in Fontaine.

Therefore, the base that Su Hao is being taken to is the residence of the Executive Officer, not a place in the wild.

Gan Yu then asked Nina where the warships and shipbuilding sites were located.

Nina's eyes flashed with surprise, but she calmly replied that she couldn't reveal this information and that she would have to ask Miss Ganyu to inquire with the servant.

Gan Yu continued to ask questions, but Nina chose to remain silent.

This left Gan Yu somewhat helpless, because no matter what she said, Nina always said that she couldn't say and that if anyone wanted to ask, they should ask the servant.

Black Ella then asked Nina why she had come to Fontaine when the other party was a subordinate of the Doctor.

You have to understand that Fontaine is Alegino's territory. Do they really think Alegino has no temper if the Doctor's subordinates dare to come here?

Nina also honestly told Black Ella that most of the Doctor's subordinates had been disbanded more than half a year ago.

As for why, it's because the crimes committed by the Doctor were far too grave.

Except for the most elite force that was sent to the Abyss, his subordinates have all been dispersed and handed over to other executive officers.

So she is now nominally Arecino's subordinate.

After hearing this, Su Hao asked a few more questions about the doctor.

Nina spoke directly, clearly she wouldn't say a word about the classified information about Fontaine, but she was willing to say a few words about information about the Doctor and others.

Soon, along the way, apart from matters concerning Fontaine...

Su Hao already knew some information about the Fools, such as that the skirmishers still existed, as long as he regained his memories and returned to the Fools.

He is also the executor of the Fools, and his subordinates are twice as many as before.

As for why? Because the Doctor committed a crime and had to go to the Abyss to be stationed, and his subordinates were scattered.

The woman's ashes were gone, as were her subordinates.

The stragglers were still alive, so his nominal subordinates not only did not decrease, but actually increased.

Soon, led by Nina, the group arrived at the Fools' stronghold, and to their surprise...

This is actually a remote area of ​​Fontainebleau, and the surrounding buildings are not particularly luxurious; in fact, they appear somewhat dilapidated.

"Eh?! Lord Su Hao?!"

Just then, two familiar faces came out of the building, looking quite surprised.

"It's you two." Su Hao was somewhat surprised to see the two people, because they were none other than Lin Ni and Linette, a brother and sister.

Nina bowed to the siblings Linnie and Lynette, for they held higher positions than her in the Fools.

"What brings you here?" Linette was somewhat surprised. Her father had just mentioned Su Hao yesterday, and now he was here today?

“I’ve come to see Arecino.” Su Hao stated his purpose directly, saying calmly, “I’m very interested in the Fontaine prophecy, back in Mondstadt last time.”

"Didn't you say that you would tell me everything as long as I arrived?"

Upon hearing this, Linnie and Lynette exchanged a glance and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

"Um, could you wait a moment?" Lin Ni looked at Su Hao with a somewhat subtle expression and said, "Because Father is a little unwell right now."

Lynette nodded slightly, saying that Su Hao's timing was just right; it would have been better if he had arrived a few minutes earlier in the morning.

"What's inconvenient?" Black Ella stepped forward expressionlessly, looking at Linnie and Lynette, and said, "What could be inconvenient for Arecino?"

Black Ella wasn't deliberately picking a fight; it was just that, in her memory, Arecino had never said anything about being "inconvenient."

An enemy is an enemy, but she is exceptionally efficient; otherwise, she wouldn't have been so highly regarded by the Winter Queen.

"Because she was taking a bath, Su Hao's maid."

Another male voice sounded from the side, and D'Artagnan walked over.

He crossed his arms and looked at Su Hao and his group, saying, "My servants have been busy since last night and only just got the chance to take a bath. What do you mean? Do you want Su Hao to come over?"

"If it's him, I don't think the servant would mind."

Just as D'Artagnan finished speaking, Linnie, Lynette, and Nina all looked at each other with somewhat subtle expressions.

“This is not appropriate, young master.” Linni was the first to object, since her father was a woman no matter what.

It's clearly not appropriate to send Lord Su Hao there while he's taking a bath.

Lynette nodded repeatedly.

"........."

Even Black Ella fell silent. Although she thought Arecino had no feminine charm whatsoever, it was clearly inappropriate for her to discuss matters with Arecino while she was taking a bath.

Just as Su Hao was about to speak, he said it was okay to wait a while, since he could take a bath for as long as he wanted.

“Then, may I go and meet her?” Gan Yu said. She was a woman and the secretary of the Seven Stars of Liyue, although she was currently on vacation.

However, both parties are equals, and since she is a woman, it is reasonable for her to discuss matters with Arecino in the past.

“No problem.” When Linni saw Gan Yu speak, a different light flashed in his eyes. He said to Linette, “Linette, the task of taking Miss Gan Yu to see Father is entrusted to you.”

“Yes.” Lynette did not refuse, and then she asked Gan Yu to come with her.

Ella followed Gan Yu discreetly, preparing to go in together. She had a chat group, and if the two chatted, she could send the content directly to the chat group for the young master to see.

And... if Arecino wants to harm Gan Yu, she can also take action in time.

Although the possibility is extremely slim, she still needs to be careful.

After all, who knows what the Fools' executives are really up to?

Seeing Ella who had come along, Lynette didn't say much, but simply led them into the house.

Nina saw that the people had arrived and knew that the conversation that was about to begin was not something a lowly servant like herself could get involved in, so she chose to take her leave.

Just after Nina left, Tadalia sidled up to Su Hao and asked, "By the way, what brings you guys here?"

"Did you already know about the news last night? So you're planning to come and take down this servant?"

As soon as D'Artagnan uttered those words, Linni looked hesitant, as if he didn't know what to say.

Su Hao looked at D'Artagnan with some surprise and said, "You betrayed Arecino directly?"

It's true what they say, as expected of D'Artagnan! If Su Hao had some kind of recording device right now, Vilette would probably be here and take down Arecino immediately.

For Navelette, as long as there is evidence and the other party is accused, he dares to try them!

Even if it's Arecino, so what? Vilette isn't afraid of her!

"Hey~ what's there to betray?" D'Artagnan waved his hand, looking utterly helpless. "Isn't it obvious?"

"You think you can hide what happened last night from anyone? I'm sure you and Vilette both know that the servant assassinated the water god."

"Could you describe in detail what exactly happened at the scene? I'm very interested in that."

Tartaglia was particularly interested because he had originally intended to attack the Rock King, but for various reasons, he failed.

As it turned out, Arecino's attack was successful last night, which piqued Tadalia's interest.

Regardless of the outcome, everyone knows that Arecino successfully attacked the water goddess Funina.

D'Artagnan was curious whether the process was exactly as Arecino had described.

"..." Su Hao was speechless. Sometimes, he felt that there was a reason why Daddaria was disliked by the other Fatah Enforcers.

The lady, the skirmisher, the doctor, and the servant all said that D'Artagnan was single-minded, while the other side was indeed cunning.

But most of the time, he has an attitude of "I'm not afraid of life or death! If you're not happy, then fight!"

And perhaps because of the [mission completed] in Liyue, Tartaglia's personality seems to have become more carefree?

"Okay, actually the situation was quite simple." Seeing that D'Artagnan wanted to know about this, Su Hao gave a brief explanation of the situation.

For example, Arecino took a knife from herself, then was hit by Navelette, and finally she left.

However, Su Hao was more concerned about one thing: in addition to the power of fire element and the authority of the Ice Queen, Arecino seemed to have a third power.

Su Hao directly asked D'Artagnan what this power was, to see if the other party knew.

"Oh, I'm not too sure about that either. It seems to be some kind of curse power."

D'Artagnan had a brief encounter with Arecino, and stroking his chin, he said bluntly, "That power is extremely strong; it's said to be a power that servants are born with."

"Before I became the Executor of the Fools, it is said that the servants used this power to kill the previous Executor of the Fools, who was also the previous head of the Hearth House."

Black Ella nodded calmly, adding, "Young Master, Arecino's curse power is indeed formidable."

"When I betrayed the Fools and faced her head-on, she used this move to severely injure me."

"However... she's definitely not as good as the young master!"

As someone who was once severely injured by Arecino, Black Ella clearly remembers her opponent's methods.

D'Artagnan nodded, looking at Black Ella and saying, "To be honest, the fact that you're alive is a miracle in a sense."

"Because I have never heard of a servant wanting to kill someone and that person being able to escape."

"Oh, by the way, Su Hao, do you know something else? I actually know a secret about Arecino..."

Upon hearing Dadalia's words, Linni, who was listening nearby, twitched at the corner of his mouth. He forced himself to step forward and said, "Young Master, isn't what you're doing a bit inappropriate?"

“What’s wrong with that?” D’Artagnan glanced at Linni and said nonchalantly, “If my servant could sell me back then, I can certainly sell her for a good price now.”

D'Artagnan's words caused Linni's lips to twitch again.

After all, Tartaglia is probably still holding a grudge about what happened in Liyue; Arecino really messed him up badly.

"If a rich person heard you say that, they would probably be very pleased."

At that moment, Arecino's voice came from afar.

"Huh?" Su Hao didn't expect Arecino to be in such a hurry, skipping even a shower and coming straight over.

"So in such a hurry?" D'Artaglia was also a little surprised, because Gan Yu and Ella had just gone in together, and in any case, Arecino should have spoken with the two of them.

So, in just a short while, the other party appeared? This is completely ignoring Gan Yu and Ella, intending to talk directly to Su Hao.

“I will naturally keep my promise.” Arecino came out, dressed casually, unlike her usual formal attire.
