I, Manye's best friend, face General Raiden at the beginning

Fujiwara's big eyes carefully looked at Tartaglia, who had overturned the "table" in the plot, and a big smile appeared on his face, "It's me, how did you recognize me?"

She was a little curious about this. Could it be that Sanbing also sent her photo to Tartaglia?

She didn't recall being photographed or looked for by the scattered soldiers.

"Haha, this should be considered the intuition of a strong man."

Tartaglia brushed his hair with his hand, showing his strong demeanor, "Although you should already know who I am, I still think I should introduce myself."

"I'm Tartaglia."

Then he pointed to the woman in business attire next to him and said, "This is Miss Catalina, my right-hand man."

Catalina also nodded and said, "Secretary."

Fujiwara smiled and nodded, but she was skeptical about the intuition of this strong man. After all, even her wife Ganyu had a feeling that Bingpang was going to do something bad.

"I'm Fujiwara Chika, and this is Mr. Kusuma from the Wan Guo Chamber of Commerce."

"Young Master, Miss Catalina, it's an honor to meet you two." Hisahi Takuma did not add "Sir" after the word "Young Master". He was not a member of the Fatui.

Fujiwara Chika is honored because she managed to get the merchant ship through the thunderstorm with zero losses, not because she is an executive officer of the Fatui.

After the few people got to know each other for a while, Tartaglia said, "Ms. Catalina, please go to Xinyuexuan and book the most luxurious private room. I will take the secretary there later. It will be a welcome party."

"Yes, my Lord."

"Wait." Fujiwara stopped Katerina who was about to leave, "Are you talking about that extremely expensive Xinyuexuan?"

"If that's the case, forget it. I have somewhere I want to go today."

"Want to come together?"

……

Manmin Hall.

It was still afternoon and not really time for lunch, so there weren't many customers in the store.

Fujiwara sat in the hall, looking at the layout of the store and the possible presence of Xiangling's wife, but after looking for a while he did not see any trace of his wife.

She suspected that Xiangling's wife was now searching for the flying ingredient Tevarin in Mondstadt.

"Boiled black bass is here."

Master Mao brought the dishes to the table and said with a smile, "Girl, I don't think you are from Liyue. You have come to the right place, Wanmin Hall."

"Even Inazuma has heard of the reputation of Wanmintang." Fujiwara suddenly lowered his voice when he said this, "Master Mao, I heard from Sister Beidou that Wanmintang likes to overcharge customers from other places."

"Hahaha, so it was Beidou who recommended you here. Don't worry, Wanmintang has always been good quality and cheap."

Master Mao said with a laugh. He knew that the reputation of Wanmin Hall would definitely not spread to Inazuma. Most likely, the other party encountered the Southern Cross fleet when they came to Liyue.

As for overcharging out-of-town guests, that simply doesn't exist.

Fujiwara picked up the chopsticks and picked out the fattiest piece of meat from the fish belly.

The feeling of the fish in her mouth made her look forward to her future life in Liyue. You know, cooking competitions are not uncommon in Liyue, and those are all delicacies that Xiangling can praise.

"Hmm~ delicious~"

As a time traveler from a flower-growing family, I have been eating Inazuma's food for more than ten days. Although I felt it was fresh at the beginning, I lost my appetite later.

The young master looked at Fujiwara's expression, and smiled as he picked up his chopsticks to pick up a piece of fish.

"..."

It's impossible to hold it!

Noticing the secretary's gaze, Tartaglia coughed twice and changed the subject, "I wanted to introduce you to this store later, but I didn't expect that your first destination would be here."

"Huh, it's because Wanmin Hall is so famous."

At this time, Fujiwara's cheeks were slightly red from eating, and he looked quite satisfied. "By the way, what are the Fatui doing in Liyue?"

"They are all insignificant matters, nothing more than debt collection and protection of Zhidong merchants or something like that."

“???” Fujiwara looked unconvinced.

It turns out that the famous diplomatic envoy only does this kind of thing.

"Haha, this is not Mondstadt or Inazuma." Tartaglia probably guessed what the secretary was thinking, "This is the country with God - Liyue!"

Fujiwara understood instantly. What could even an executive of the Fatui do in front of Emperor Rock King?

Even the scene in the plot where Tartaglia overturned the table was tacitly approved by Emperor Geo. It was just a deal between the Queen of Winter and Emperor Geo.

He is different from Barbatos in that he does not manage Mond's affairs, nor is he like Baalzebub in that he hides among puppets in pursuit of eternity.

He is a real god walking the streets of Liyue and directly interfering with the development of Liyue.

The lady was able to oppress the Knights against the Wind Dragon in Mondstadt, and the Thunder Cannon was able to guide the implementation of the Eye Hunting Order in Inazuma, but if Tartaglia dared to do something under the nose of Emperor Rock King.

That would be... hehe.

"Hmm, I see." Fujiwara indicated that she understood and continued, "Then, if I just arrived, should I go and get to know my friends in the Way of the Faint?"

In response to this, the young master readily agreed.

"By the way, I wonder if you have any knowledgeable friends. I am very interested in the history of Liyue."

"I do have a friend in the underworld who seems to know a little bit about everything. I can introduce him to you when I have time."

Fujiwara's smile grew even wider; she felt that Tartaglia was still very reliable.

Think about it, both are introducing gods, but Inazuma's way of introducing is really...

Thomas is outrageous!

Chapter 19 These chopsticks are very smooth

Manmin Hall.

In the end, Tartaglia did not pick up his chopsticks again and said as he looked at the secretary who was eating with satisfaction.

"Come to think of it, the secretary should be Inazuma's man. I wonder if he has heard of that Wuxiang knife."

Fujiwara paused while eating: "..."

I always felt that the food in front of me was not delicious, but I still replied.

"know."

"Haha, it's really plain." Tartaglia laughed, "I heard that it is the pinnacle of General Raiden's martial arts and the symbol of the strongest. It can only be seen when the divine punishment truly comes."

Fujiwara could hear the longing in his words.

The kind of desire that makes me want to pick up my sword and fight with General Lei Dian and face that Wu Xiang Yi Dao in person.

"Just half a month ago, someone in Inazuma saw General Raiden wield the legendary sword. The sword tore the sky apart, split the earth apart, and cut across the sea..."

"It is said that she attacked from across half of the island, just like when she killed the giant snake with her sword."

Tartaglia paused and looked at the secretary with interest. "And the day after you slashed that sword, you were invited by the Skirmishers to join the Fatui."

At this time, Fujiwara had already put down his chopsticks, and looked back with one hand supporting his face, "So?"

"General Lei Dian attacked you with that unintended blow, but you survived it."

Hearing this, the pink-haired girl couldn't help but purse her lips and whisper, "Dead! How could that woman survive with such a heavy blow?"

"???"

A question mark popped up in the young man's head, as if he had heard something just now.

"What did you just say?"

"Nothing." Fujiwara hadn't thought about explaining the resurrection to Tartaglia. After all, they had just met. "So what do you want to say?"

She had already seen that, just as she was frantically hinting at Mr. Zhongli's affairs, Tartaglia also wanted something from her.

So they both seemed quite enthusiastic towards each other, but there is no such thing as enthusiasm without reason in this world.

"So it was you who blocked the sword from General Raiden, right?"

Tartaglia's face was already full of excitement, and he decided that as long as the secretary agreed, he would immediately invite the secretary to compete with him.

It was for this reason that he waited at the port of Liyue for several days and thought of inviting the secretary to a welcome dinner.

This is a good opportunity to fight with the strong and improve yourself.

"it's me."

Fujiwara nodded in acknowledgment, "Then how about a sparring match?"

"Okay! Secretary, what are you going to discuss?" Tartaglia said with a smile.

"A simple sparring match would be boring. If I'm going to set the rules, how about adding some small stakes?"

Tartaglia didn't care when he heard that, "Okay."

"Okay, then the loser in the competition will be the one to serve as a puppet for the other..."

"Be the other party's thug for once." Fujiwara changed his words.

She felt like she almost let herself go, after all, she had just found a way to defeat Tartaglia.

"Thomas?"

Tartaglia was a little confused, but she always felt that this was a dangerous woman.

"If you can find helpers to fight, your opponent must be very strong, right?"

"If that's the case, I might consider helping you for free."

There was a hint of eagerness on his face now.

Seeing this, Fujiwara said directly, "He is very strong. He is a swordsman who can absorb the power of the moon and use it."

"Even if the head is cut off, it can be restored. The body has a powerful ability to instantly heal itself."

"Wow, this is really exciting." Tartaglia said, "Before that, let me tell you about our competition."

Fujiwara supported his face with one hand and looked at Tartaglia opposite him, which made Tartaglia suddenly a little nervous.

"The content of the competition is very simple. Whoever can pick up a piece of fish with chopsticks and put it into his mouth first will be the winner."

Dadalia: "..."

This woman must be a devil. Is she the executive officer of the Fatui?

"Master? What do you think? Do you need to change the content of the competition?"

Fujiwara said with a smile, "The main reason is that I saw that you haven't touched your chopsticks today, so I'm using the excuse of sparring to let you taste it too."

"Or is it that the young master is allergic to black-backed sea bass?"

"..."

Although Tartaglia could see the smile on the secretary's face, he always felt a chill down his spine.

And can humans use chopsticks?

"I've had fish soup before."

"You know, the boiled black-backed sea bass soup at Wanmintang is also one of the best."

"However, since the secretary has proposed it, why don't we have a discussion?"

Before he finished speaking, the chopsticks that had been motionless suddenly stretched out and stabbed the black-backed sea bass. The chopsticks were used with pure skill and were not attached to any elemental power.

Fujiwara, who was originally smiling, also stretched out his chopsticks and used the chopsticks as a sword to fight with only skill.

Above the boiled black-back sea bass, two pairs of chopsticks were constantly clashing, making a slight tapping sound, which attracted the attention of the diners around.

They saw a man and a woman seemingly fighting over a piece of fish on the table, and they were swinging their chopsticks around with great vigor.

It actually looked a bit like adventurers fighting in the wild.

Fujiwara supported the corner of the table with her left hand. She could already feel the slight suppression from Tartaglia.

It’s not that her fighting ability is worse than Tartaglia’s, it’s just that her level of using chopsticks is not as good as Tartaglia’s.

"That alone would be boring."

Tartaglia said, he was very satisfied with what the secretary showed.
