Zongman: Beginning and Snow under the Rain Escape from Raccoon City

"What's your relationship with Ayaka Kamisato? Why would she write you a letter? And say 'You're finally back'?"

Ye Hai silently pushed Paimon aside; this guy had too many problems.

And he didn't know the answer either.

"I've never been to Inazuma!"

Ye Hai helplessly spread his hands, waving the letter in his hand: "I'm even more confused than you guys, okay? This letter came out of nowhere, I've never even met her before!"

Paimon snorted, waved his little hand, pulled a piece of paper and a pen from behind his back, and slammed them on the table: "Then you write the quest report first! We need to go back and hand it in; the Adventurers' Guild is waiting!"

There was nothing behind me just now, I have no idea where this guy pulled it out from.

In my past life, it seems some people suspected that Paimon was the Time Demon.

Otherwise, there's no way to explain why the protagonist can modify time in the game.

But would the Time Demon possess spatial abilities?

Ye Hai thoughtfully took the paper and pen Paimon handed him, picked up the pen, and quickly wrote his name.

Paimon took the receipt, checked it over, nodded in satisfaction, then suddenly exchanged a glance with Ying. The two of them chuckled, revealing a slightly cunning expression.

Paimon pulled out a new piece of paper and an envelope from his bag, and said smugly, "Actually, we've taken on a follow-up mission! Ms. Ayaka Kamisato from Inazuma has asked you, Ye Hai, to write a reply, and the reward is a full 50,000 Mora!"

"???"

"Is making money from Morocco really that easy these days?"

Ye Hai wondered why he couldn't sell his gold.

Although Mora in the Genshin Impact world looks golden, it is not actually gold, but a special metal.

According to the book, Mora itself is a kind of elemental catalyst.

Ye Hai has been running around to all the shops in Mondstadt these past few days, but only a few blacksmith shops are willing to buy back a little gold.

It only sold for a little over two million Mora.

Gold was merely a material for refining weapons to them, and it wasn't used very frequently, so they were unwilling to collect more than that.

Chapter 149 Inazuma

Ying nodded: "The request is very clear. It requires you to write a reply in your own handwriting. The content is not limited. Send it back to the Inazuma Adventurers' Guild, and they will forward it to Ayaka Kamisato."

Ye Hai frowned and scratched his head: "What should I write? I'm not even that close to her. I can't exactly write 'Hi, I received your letter, what does it mean?'"

Paimon floated in front of him, hands on his hips: "We don't know what she wants you to write, just write anything! It's 50,000 Mora, what are you waiting for? Get started!"

"Just write whatever..."

Ye Hai muttered something to himself and looked up at the window.

The sun was shining brightly in Mondstadt, casting golden rays high in the sky. Windmills creaked and turned, and in the distance, several pigeons were being chased by children all over the street.

He looked down at the blank letter paper, his mind blank for a moment, so he simply picked up a pen and wrote a few words:

"Good afternoon, Ms. Ayaka Kamisato, whom I have never met before."

Ye Hai stopped writing, stared at the line of text, feeling it was a bit perfunctory, but not knowing what else to write.

"Forget it, that's it."

Ye Hai simply gave up on thinking about it and handed the letter back to Ying.

Paimon took the letter from Ye Hai, glanced at the few words that couldn't be shorter, and his face scrunched up like a steamed bun: "Hey, Ye Hai, this is way too perfunctory! You only wrote this one sentence? It's a 50,000 Mora request, you should at least write a few more words to show some sincerity!"

"The money didn't even end up in my pocket."

Ye Hai glanced at Paimon: "Why don't you give me some money, and I'll write more?"

"Forget it then."

Paimon snorted and muttered, "Give you a share? Dream on! We've searched all over Mondstadt for you!"

She carefully slipped the letter into the envelope, exchanged a glance with Ying, and shrugged: "Never mind, it's your letter, write whatever you want, let's go hand in the mission!"

Ying nodded, then turned and led Paimon out the door.

After the door closed, the room became quiet, with only the creaking of the windmill coming from outside the window.

Ye Hai leaned back in his chair, staring at the apple on the table, but his mind was still preoccupied with the letter from Ayaka Shinri.

He'd only been in Mondstadt for a few days, and had just arrived in Teyvat, so where did this "finally back" come from?

This whole thing is just so weird no matter how you look at it.

"How about... we go to Inazuma?"

Ye Hai muttered to himself, tapping his fingers on the table.

As evening fell, the setting sun painted the rooftops of Mondstadt red. Yukino Yukinoshita returned home, carrying a bag of groceries she had just bought from the market.

She glanced at Ye Hai, her tone as cold as ever: "What trouble have you gotten into today? I heard Paimon and Ying Mancheng are looking for you."

Ye Hai chuckled twice, scratched his head, and said, "It's nothing serious, just received a letter, which is quite strange. By the way, Yukino, are you free? Want to come with me to Inazuma?"

Yukino Yukinoshita put down the bag and stared at him suspiciously: "Inatsume? What is it?"

Ye Hai briefly summarized Ayaka Kamisato's letter, omitting the specific details and only mentioning that she was the young lady of the company's magistrate and had something to discuss with him.

After listening, Yukino Yukinoshita remained silent for a few seconds, her eyes becoming somewhat inscrutable as she looked Ye Hai up and down.

"Ayaka Kamisato, the young lady of the Inatsuma Company."

Yukino Yukinoshita spoke calmly, but her voice rose slightly at the end: "Ye Hai, your romantic entanglements really do seem to have spread all over Teyvat. Even the noble lady of Inazuma knows you?"

She has also been cramming on knowledge about the Teyvat continent these days, using books borrowed from the library.

Yukino Yukinoshita knows that Inazuma is currently in a state of isolation.

Despite this situation, Ye Hai was still able to hook up with the noble lady over there.

His flirting skills are truly top-notch.

"What romantic entanglements? Don't slander me!"

Ye Hai almost choked on the apple: "I really don't know her! It's just that this letter is so strange that I wanted to find out what's going on!"

Yukino Yukinoshita narrowed her eyes and stared at him for a few seconds.

She snorted, her tone cool but tinged with possessive jealousy: "She's a noble lady, gentle and elegant, and I've heard she's quite a beauty. Are you sure you've never met her before?"

“That phrase ‘You’re finally back’ didn’t seem like it was written casually.”

Well, it's obvious they found out before coming back; they even know the details.

"I swear, we've never met in real life!"

Ye Hai raised his hand, looking completely innocent.

The thing about maxing out affection in the game doesn't count.

Genshin Impact isn't a dating sim, right?

Yukino Yukinoshita was silent for a moment, then her tone softened a bit: "Alright, I'll believe you for now. But I have to stay. Yura has been teaching me how to use the power of the Eye of God, and I don't want to interrupt it."

She paused, glanced at Ye Hai, and added, "You'd better not cause any trouble for me while I'm in Inazuma."

Ye Hai chuckled and leaned over to put his arm around her shoulder: "Don't worry, Yukino, your husband is an honest man, why would I cause trouble?"

Yukino Yukinoshita gently pushed him away, coldly scoffing, "An honest man? Do you even believe that yourself?"

Ye Hai chuckled twice and turned to look for the others.

Eriri Sawamura is pregnant and cannot travel long distances, so Saki Kawasaki has to stay behind to take care of her.

Finally, Ye Hai found Sato Miwako and Hikigaya Komachi.

Of course, Miwako Sato wouldn't refuse Ye Hai.

Meanwhile, Komachi Hikigaya was beaming with excitement, clapping her hands and exclaiming, "Haha-onni is going to Inatsume? Take me with you! I heard the hot springs and sweets there are amazing, I want to try them!"

Her eyes sparkled; she treated this trip like a vacation.

Hikigaya Komachi has been staying at home lately with absolutely nothing to do but read books every day.

I've learned quite a bit of miscellaneous knowledge.

This new world doesn't exhibit the same level of terror as before.

It's very leisurely.

It seems like all the trouble is going to Ying.

The next morning, as the Mondstadt sun began to shine on the city walls, Ye Hai, Sato Miwako, and Komachi packed their bags and prepared to set off.

(Nuoqian Zhao) At this time, Inazuma is still in a state of isolation and does not allow outsiders to enter at will.

But if you really want to go, there are ways.

Just like when people from Fujian go to the United States, it doesn't matter if the visa officer doesn't agree, as long as Mazu (the goddess of the sea) agrees.

After making some inquiries, Ye Hai learned that a fleet of ships would be passing through Inazuma today.

However, they will not dock at Inazuma Narukami Island; they will have to find their own way to cross the sea.

Others might try to smuggle themselves in using small boats or something similar.

But Ye Hai doesn't need those things.

He can fly.

Not to mention that he has already advanced to the second level of psychic power.

His control over the wind element alone was enough for him to carry people freely through the air.

The reason I didn't fly directly from Mondstadt to Inazuma was simply because I found it too tiring.

The three stood at the harbor, the morning breeze carrying the salty scent of the sea. The dock was bustling with noise, crowded with merchant ships and fishing boats.

Chapter 150 Arrival at Inazuma

In the distance, a large ship stands, its sails faintly displaying a dragon head emblem, exuding an imposing presence.

"Yehoni, this ship is huge! Are we really going to take this to Inazuma?"

Komachi Hikigaya's eyes sparkled as she tugged at Hakai's sleeve, as excited as a primary school student going on a spring outing.

Sato Miwako stood to the side: "That's good. On long voyages, the bigger the ship, the safer it is. Ye Hai, have you found out? Will this ship pass by Inazuma?"

Ye Hai shrugged, speaking casually: "I've inquired, and this is the only fleet that will pass through Inazuma today. However, they won't dock, so we'll have to find our own way to get to the island when we get there."

"Find a way yourself?"

Komachi Hikigaya tilted her head, puzzled, and asked, "What do you mean? Swim over?"

Ye Hai chuckled and patted her head: "Swimming? What's the point of swimming? I have a plan, you'll see when the time comes."

The three boarded the ship, where the sailors were busy inspecting the cargo. The deck was piled high with wooden crates and sacks, and the air was filled with the smell of sea salt and wood.

Ye Hai found a corner to sit down. They had bought tickets, but they could only enter their cabins after the cargo and personnel had all arrived and the ship's manager had counted the number of people.

Just then, a hearty laugh rang out from the deck: "Haha, some new faces! Welcome aboard the Death Star, 987! I'm Captain Hokuto, where are you headed?"

Ye Hai looked up and saw a tall woman walking over. Her red dress fluttered in the sea breeze, and she carried a large sword. She exuded a bold and slightly roguish aura.

She wore a carefree smile, but her sharp eyes swept over the three of them, as if she were sizing up where they had come from.

"BeiDou?"

Ye Hai was stunned. The image of the generous Southern Cross fleet leader from Genshin Impact flashed through his mind. He thought to himself, "This is too much luck."

He stood up, smiling, and said, "Oh, Captain Hokuto, I've heard so much about you. The three of us are just passing through Inazuma, could you please give us a ride?"

Beidou raised an eyebrow, looked Ye Hai up and down, and smiled meaningfully: "Inazuma? So you're the one the Knights of Favonius asked me to bring along."

Beidou's ship is not an ordinary passenger ship; she doesn't take ordinary people with her.
