Yae from Genshin Impact is my sister

"Old man, just confess. It's been so long. If you confess, we'll definitely let you enjoy the service of a luxury private room."
"Yes, yes, as long as you confess who your accomplices are, we will definitely not treat you unfairly. It's not impossible that we will release you in the future."
Faced with the seductive voices all around him, Master Zhengsheng snorted defiantly. It didn't matter if these people beat him to death, since he was old and didn't have many days left to live anyway. But he absolutely couldn't let these people know about Xiaogong.
Seeing that Master Masamori remained silent, the surrounding shogunate soldiers grew angry. This old man was truly ungrateful; they had already said so much, yet he still wouldn't reveal anything. Did he really think they wouldn't dare to kill him? The angry shogunate soldiers raised their weapons, ready to give Master Masamori a severe beating.
"stop!"
Before the blow could strike Master Zheng Sheng hard, a bolt of lightning descended from the sky, instantly numbing the Shogunate soldiers. This sudden turn of events left the surrounding Shogunate soldiers dumbfounded. Good heavens, who has the audacity to cause trouble in the prison?
However, the Shogunate soldiers around him immediately became excited. This was a military achievement delivered to their doorstep. If they could capture this person, they would certainly receive a lot of credit.
“Raise your weapons at me, and if there were no greed in your eyes, I would praise you. But now, tsk.”
Su Bai made no attempt to hide the sarcasm on his face. The powerful lightning element made these Shogunate soldiers finally see the difference between Su Bai and other holders of the Eye of God. This person in front of them was someone they could not afford to provoke.
"Master Zheng Sheng, I'm here to save you."
Xiaogong couldn't care less about anything else at this point. She rushed to Master Zhengsheng's side to check his injuries, but Master Zhengsheng pushed her away when he heard her voice.
"Xiaogong, you have to leave quickly. You can't let them catch you. These people are a bunch of devils."
“Master Zhengsheng is fine. Su Bai came with me. With him here, nothing unexpected will happen.”
"Su Bai, he's back, that's good."
Upon hearing that Su Bai had returned, Master Masamori visibly breathed a sigh of relief. From the fact that Su Bai had blown up the castle tower with fireworks made by Yonomiya and that he was only slightly swollen on the buttocks the next day but was still able to go out and play, he could tell that Su Bai was no match for ordinary people in Inazuma.
"Master Zhengsheng, don't move yet, let me treat your injury."
"Yes, yes, Master Zhengsheng, let me put the medicine on for you first, so that the wound doesn't get infected later."
Originally, Xiaogong wanted to help Master Zhengsheng treat his wounds, but Master Zhengsheng politely declined. He knew very well that his injury was not an external wound, but an internal one, and he would probably need to take some medicine to recover when he got back.
Master Zheng Sheng's explanation forced Ying to take back the ointment. The ointment that Bai Zhu gave her could only treat external injuries and had no effect on internal injuries.
Just as Su Bai and the Shogunate army were facing off, an arrow crackling with lightning energy struck the center of the two sides. Upon seeing the arrow, the Shogunate soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. Their General Kujo Sara had arrived.
To the utter surprise of the shogunate soldiers, the lightning element on the arrows wasn't aimed at Su Bai, but instead rushed towards them. Completely unprepared for this, the shogunate soldiers were instantly struck half to death and collapsed to the ground.
"It's a laughing stock, so embarrassing."
"I didn't expect you to resort to vigilante justice even after I emphasized it so much. Guards, take them away and lock them up. Without my orders, let them stay in jail indefinitely."
Watching this dashing woman command a group of soldiers to drag away the shogunate soldiers who had resorted to torture, Paimon's eyes sparkled. She tugged at Ying's clothes and whispered something.
"Ying, this person looks like a high-ranking official in Inazuma. Should we ask her if she has any requests for help? People like this usually don't offer small rewards."
Hearing Paimon say this, Ying was also tempted, but she quickly suppressed it. She wasn't very familiar with Inazuma yet, and if she rashly accepted the commission, she might encounter some danger.
"Sara, it's been a long time. I didn't expect you to have become even stronger in the past few years."
"Becoming stronger is a must for the sake of the General. But as for you, don't you feel like you owe me something?"
Su Bai greeted Kujo Sara with a smile. Kujo Sara looked Su Bai up and down and, seeing that Su Bai still looked lazy and listless, walked up to Su Bai and punched him in the stomach.
"Cough cough, Kujo Sara, I didn't offend you, did I? It hurts so much."
Caught off guard, Su Bai bent down, clutching his stomach. He never expected Kujo Sara to suddenly attack him.
"This punch is to retaliate for the fact that you left Inazuma without saying goodbye to me."
"If Yaegami hadn't told me you left Inazuma, I would have thought you'd encountered some danger and died out there."
After explaining for a moment, Kujo Sara turned to look at Master Masamori, who was being supported by Yoomiya. Kujo Sara glanced at Yoomiya; she knew that this young girl had been helping people forge the Eye of God recently, but without concrete evidence, Inazuma's laws did not allow for arrests.
"Don't be nervous, you can leave here, but remember, Su Bai won't always have time to deal with this kind of thing. Be more discreet next time."
"Also, your name is Xiaogong, right? You can no longer provide Su Bai with more powerful fireworks. If the castle tower is bombed again, I will personally visit your fireworks shop."
"Hehe, no, no, that was all when I was a kid."
Yomiya shook her head, indicating that she would not be like she was when she was a child. Kujo Sara glanced at Su Bai, feeling that Su Bai was not too well-behaved. Before the Inazuma Trio officially reunited, Kujo Sara felt it was necessary to nip some risks in the bud.
"That would be best, but I think some people have always had this idea."
"Ahem, Sara, you're really wronging an innocent person. I'm a law-abiding fox in Liyue, and I even brought you a gift, yet you didn't say anything about me. It's really disheartening."
"Hmph, enough nonsense, hand over the gift. You're just a lazy bum with nothing to do. I have a ton of things to deal with in my camp. If you really have nothing to do, you can come and assist me. The rebels' offensive has suddenly become more intense recently. If you come and help me, we should be able to crush them directly."
Kujo Sara snatched the phone Su Bai had taken out without any hesitation. Perhaps because she had been in the military camp for too long, Kujo Sara was even more efficient in her actions.
“Going to the military camp? That’s really unnecessary. If I were to go to the military camp to assist you, the Inazuma family wouldn’t be able to sleep at night.”
Upon hearing that Kujo Sara was trying to trick him into working for free again, Su Bai refused without hesitation. It wasn't that he didn't want to help Kujo Sara, but rather that their identities were too special. Su Bai, one of the representatives of Narukami Taisha, suddenly appearing in the military camp with Kujo Sara would inevitably cause some people to have certain thoughts.
Chapter 258 Wooden Leak Tea Room
"Kujo Sara didn't make things difficult for you? That's great. I thought Kujo Sara wouldn't let Master Masamori leave."
Inside the wooden tea room, Ayaka knelt beside a small table, her eyes flashing with complex emotions. She had initially thought that this matter would not end so easily. She had already gathered a group of Final ninja disguised as a treasure-hunting gang outside the prison, but she did not expect that Kujo Sara would release Master Masamori so easily.
"I think that guy named Kujo Sara is pretty good. To make up for the torture Master Masamori suffered, he even gave Master Masamori a sum of money when he left."
Because Su Bai had told Paimon and the others a lot about Kujo Sara on the way back, Paimon had a very good impression of Kujo Sara. Moreover, Kujo Sara was a high-ranking official in Inazuma, and if she got along well with her, she might take care of her if anything happened.
Ayaka nodded slightly. It was undeniable that Kujo Sara was indeed a very trustworthy person. Despite his high position, he never put on airs. If it weren't for Kujo Sara's excessive loyalty to Raiden General, the Kamisato family would have been very keen to bring Kujo Sara along to fight against Raiden General.
"Ying, what are you so happy about? I've been looking at your phone the whole time. Did someone invite you to dinner?"
"Paimon, can't you think of anything other than food? Look at your phone."
Hu Tao: 'Good heavens, is my memory failing me? I clearly remember sending this little boy's ghost to its eternal rest, so how come he's reappeared after eating something?'
Kurumi: 'Does that mean the Inazuma demon can't be exorcised using Liyue's methods? But that doesn't make sense either, all the other demons sent to their deaths have already disappeared... Ugh, this is so annoying!'
Paimon: 'I never imagined even Kurumi couldn't handle a ghost. That's unbelievable.'
Zhongli: 'From a purely rational perspective, there must be some force at play here. We should investigate thoroughly tomorrow and find some clues.'
Zhong Tuo: 'The signal at He Guan is terrible; I can't even send a message. If I go back from He Guan now, it'll probably be past midnight by the time I get to Daozu City. I really want to eat something.'
The beautiful and intelligent Yae no Miko: 'My three friends from Liyue, if you don't mind, you can come to Narukami Shrine for a bite to eat. The shrine has food prepared for the shrine maidens on night duty.'
Zhongli: "Thank you for your kindness, Master Yae, but Narukami Shrine is too far from Inazuma Castle, so we won't bother you there."
Su Bai: "Hey, Hu Tao, if you guys don't have anywhere to stay, you can make do at my place. I've already sent you the location privately. I bought a house in Inazuma City before, but instead of appreciating, it went down in price a lot..."
The beautiful and intelligent Yae no Miko: 'Oh, so little Su Bai has his own secret base? That really surprises me! There's an idiom in Liyue, "keeping a beauty hidden away," I wonder who little Su Bai plans to hide inside?'
Su Bai: '...Thoma called me for dinner, we'll talk later. I won't be going back to Narukami Shrine tonight, I might need to tidy up that room.'
Su Bai: 'Little Sister Zhong Tuo, I'll buy some food and put it in the house later. Aside from not eating seafood, you guys probably don't dislike anything, right?'
Zhong Tuo: 'That's right, I've heard that Inazuma's tricolor dumplings are very famous. Give me a few more skewers, please.'
"Dinner's ready, Miss. What are you looking at so intently?"
Thomas, who was carrying a hot pot, found it strange that Ayaka Kamisato was staring intently at a small, glowing box next to Hotaru. After all, such a gesture was somewhat impolite for a young lady like Ayaka Kamisato. Just as Thomas was about to remind his young lady, Su Bai stopped him.
"There are no outsiders here, so there's no need to worry about manners. Besides, don't you think that Ayaka is exactly how a girl her age should be?"
Thomas was taken aback. He felt that what Su Bai said made sense. Ever since the dramatic changes in the Kamisato family, the young lady had only shown a girlish side when she went out with Su Bai. Otherwise, she was almost always very polite.
However, if he had known that the young lady would be so interested in that little box, he shouldn't have come now. This hot pot, which has just boiled, is too hot to handle! Thomas gave a wry smile. Well, even though the hot pot is hot, he'll let it be hot for the young lady's sake.
"Thoma, why don't you just put this hot pot on the ground? Why do you have to keep carrying it?"
Looking at Thomas's slightly red hands, Su Bai was a little confused as to why Thomas didn't put the hot pot on the ground. Thomas wasn't a stubborn person, after all. Hearing Su Bai bring this up, Thomas looked at the wooden floor and gave a wry smile.
"Forget it. The owner of this wooden teahouse is Taro-maru. If we make the floor of the wooden teahouse black, Taro-maru will definitely be unhappy. Besides, the temperature of the hot pot is too high. Putting it on the wooden floor could easily cause a fire."
Su Bai raised an eyebrow and covered Thomas's hand with rock element to insulate it from the heat. Thomas thanked him and then hid behind the screen to wait. With nothing else to do, Su Bai took out his phone and looked at the various messages in the group.
Thomas initially didn't think much of the phone; he didn't find the little glowing box particularly interesting. But when he noticed the various messages popping up on the phone, he realized how wrong he was. Come on, this kind of remote communication gadget is super cool!
"Ahem, Thomas, you've arrived."
"Ah, Miss, I was talking to Su Bai and forgot to bring the hot pot over. I'm so sorry."
Thomas's words made Ayaka blush slightly. The intelligent girl naturally knew why Thomas would say that. Paimon sniffed the aroma in the air. Unlike the spicy hot pot in Liyue, Inazuma's hot pot seemed to be made with seafood as the broth. The unique freshness made Paimon look forward to it.
"It's rare for the Mulou Tea House to be lively today, let's play a hot pot game."
"What kind of game is 'Hot Pot Game'?"
Paimon was a little curious but still looking forward to it. Ying, who was new to the game, was also puzzled by the hot pot game, but thinking that it might be a specialty of Inazuma, she didn't ask too many questions. After Thomas explained the rules of the game, everyone decided to give it a try.
After playing the game, Thomas clutched his stomach in pain, feeling as if his stomach was protesting and wanted to run away from home.
"Can anyone tell me what they were thinking, throwing cake into a hot pot...? Also, why did I taste a weird flavor in my hot pot? It was a flavor that's really hard to describe."
"Oh, that must be the 'Ghostly March' that I put in. It's a dish made by Walnut, the head of our Rebirth Hall. It must taste very special."
"It was very special; it felt like I saw my long-lost father..."
Chapter 259 The Lively Group Chat
"It's a pity my brother hasn't finished his work, otherwise I would definitely have introduced you to him."
"Hehe, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. I will probably stay in Inazuma for a while. Ayaka, we'll be going now."
"Be careful on the road, Thomas. You go with Subaru and pay for his Mora."
Watching Su Bai walk away, Linghua felt reluctant, but she didn't have the courage to ask him to stay. Besides, she felt like she had forgotten something.
Meanwhile, a man forgotten in the shrine twitched at the sight of a table full of cold food. So what if Su Bai came back? Why leave his older brother to eat cold food in the shrine?
Inside the shopping street of Inazuma City, Su Bai bought some local Inazuma delicacies to take back for Hu Tao and the others to have for dinner. Meanwhile, Thomas, who was in charge of paying for Su Bai's meal, was using his phone to ask Ayaka what she wanted to eat and whether she needed any digestive medicine.
"Wow, I didn't expect these street vendors to sell so many delicious things. If I had known, I would have eaten less hot pot earlier."
Paimon, who had eaten three large plates of meat, was now drooling over all the delicious food on the street. Although she was jokingly called having a "dimensional stomach," she still needed time to digest.
"Toma, I've bought everything I need. You should go buy the medicine now. You can't tough it out like this."
"Then I'll be going now. Be careful on your way. Oh dear, my stomach!"
Watching Thomas leave, clutching his stomach, Ying rubbed her own stomach with lingering fear. Luckily, she had only eaten normal food; otherwise, her beautiful girl image might have completely collapsed.
In a place far from the commercial street within Inazuma City, a two-story building, completely different from the architecture of Inazuma, stands quietly in the dark night.
"Wow, Su Bai, I didn't expect you to have a house like this in Inazuma. It seems that Ying and I won't need to stay in a hotel."
