Genshin Impact, after inventing mobile phones, they looked at me with strange eyes

Obviously, the clever Yingbao had anticipated this problem early on.

So before going out, she deliberately disguised herself.

"This is what I learned from the light novels that Shenzi brought."

The general was serious. He took out a half mask from somewhere and put it on, revealing only his beautifully contoured white jaw. He said seriously:

"As long as you wear a mask, your true identity won't be revealed. This should be considered common sense in life, right?"

What kind of common sense is this...

Su Che twitched his mouth, the scumbag fox and the terrifying whale were confirmed.

But he didn't say much. After all, the features of this otaku girl were too big in every sense, and it was difficult to hide them.

"I don't like overly rigid titles... Since I'm traveling incognito, you don't have to call me General. Just call me Shadow."

Before leaving, the homegirl suddenly said.

Su Che is quick to accept advice.

After leaving the castle tower, new problems arose.

I don't know the way.

The last time I came to stroll around the city was last time. The lifespans of humans and demons are different. For Ying, the time she was autistic might just be a blink of an eye, but for humans, it might be the replacement of several generations of fathers and sons.

The once familiar shops have either disappeared or changed owners, and most of them have changed their appearance.

Ying felt a little emotional.

"Is this the current market of Inazuma? It is very different from what I remember..."

Although Inazuma is not as prosperous as it used to be due to the isolation order, it is the capital of a country after all, and it is not as desolate as an outlying island.

The two walked along the straight path. There were beautiful cherry blossoms planted on both sides of the street. It was the blooming season, and pink petals floated down from time to time, covering the ground like a layer of cherry pink carpet.

The gentle breeze blows by, and together with the warm sunshine in the afternoon, it shines on the body, making people relax involuntarily.

"Since we are going to visit incognito, we must investigate the opinions of the people in person. Where should we go first? Does Ying have any plans?"

"Um……"

As if he was thinking about something, Ying hesitated for a moment, and his eyes suddenly stopped on a snack cart not far away.

"How about we start from there?"

Su Che: “?”

Are you sure it's not because you're greedy?

Although it was a question, Ying had already walked up on his own. Seeing this, Su Che had no choice but to follow.

The stall owner was a young man. There was not much business at the moment, so he was taking a nap in the corner.

Suddenly I heard footsteps and woke up with a start. When I saw the person in front of me clearly, I almost screamed out loud.

“General, General…”

Before she could utter the words "General", she found that the man behind her was putting his index finger to his mouth and making a "silence" gesture.

The stall owner was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted.

Since the general was wearing a mask, it was obvious that he was planning to go on a secret tour.

If his shouting exposed the general's identity, he would be the one to suffer the consequences!

With a warm smile on his face again, the stall owner said attentively: "My dear customer, what would you like to eat? Would you like to try our Inazuma's latest creative food, dango milk? I can guarantee that this is the only delicious one in the whole Inazuma City!"

"Of course, if you're not satisfied, we also have natto milk ramen, spicy colorful dumplings, assorted milk tea... and many other delicious foods. If they're not tasty, we won't charge you!"

"Um……"

Ying thought about it and felt that no matter whether it was dango milk, natto milk ramen, or assorted milk tea, they all sounded delicious.

Based on the principle of first come first served, she said calmly: "I want dango milk, just... two cups first."

"okay!"

The stall owner's name is Zhishu. There were too many century-old stores around, and he couldn't compete with them no matter what he sold, so he simply tried a different way and focused on "creative food."

Unfortunately, although the things he sells are novel and taste good, perhaps because the ingredients are too strange, he has few repeat customers and his customers are still used to eating traditional foods.

Zhishu never imagined that one day, a newcomer in the culinary world like himself would be able to make a cup of dango milk for the general himself!

Excited heart, trembling hands.

With the mood of "this is bringing honor to the family", he made the most perfect cup of dumpling milk in history, and then presented it to the general with a pious face.

"Guest, please."

"And him, please prepare a cup for him as well."

Although Yingbao was a little greedy, he was still very loyal. With dessert in front of him, he did not forget about Su Che.

"Okay, leave it to me!"

Zhishu patted his chest, and then made a cup of dango milk for Su Che with ease, and handed it to him, "The customer looks strange, is this your first time at Inazuma?"

"Yes, the store manager's attention is very sharp."

Su Che looked at him with some surprise, took the dumpling milk, took a sip, and it tasted sweet, with a smooth texture, and was unexpectedly delicious.

He gave a thumbs up sincerely: "It is really delicious."

"Hehe, as long as you like it."

Zhishu didn't dare to talk to the general beside him, so he could only focus on the young man in front of him.

He scratched his head and said with a silly smile, "I'm not that sharp, but the way you dress doesn't look like an Inazuma person. I just didn't expect... under such circumstances, there are still foreigners who can come to Inazuma."

"Well, I'm on a business trip, I can't help myself."

Su Che smiled and naturally chatted with the stall owner, "How's your business recently? It seems like you don't have many customers, but the food tastes very good."

Speaking of this, Zhishu seemed a little embarrassed, scratched his head again, and smiled bitterly:

"Yes... Although most of the locals in Inazuma are not used to the food here, before the lockdown, many foreign customers liked it very much. At that time, business was much better than it is now. But since the lockdown, the number of foreign tourists has been decreasing until now..."

Suddenly I remembered that the initiator of the isolation order was right next to me. Although what I said could not be called a protest, it was inevitably a complaint.

What if the General misunderstands me...

Zhishu's face turned pale, and he quickly waved his hands and said, "Of course, of course, I don't mean to say anything bad about the general. She must have her own ideas. An ordinary person like me naturally can't figure out the thoughts of an important person."

"Take it easy."

Su Che comforted him, "Don't be so scared, it's okay, just stay calm."

She glanced at the shadow next to her without leaving a trace. The otaku girl was still sitting there happily drinking milk dumplings, but her ears were subconsciously raised, and she was obviously very concerned about what was going on here.

Zhishu also realized that his reaction was indeed a bit too much. He smiled embarrassedly and apologized: "I'm sorry, sir, I let you see my inappropriate side."

"It doesn't matter."

The voice was very pleasant to the ear. Ying couldn't help but feel curious. She put the milk ball she hadn't finished drinking on the table beside her and came over.

Hidden behind the mask, eyes as pure as wisteria flowers gaze at the figures of the people in front of him.

"No one will blame you. Shopkeeper, can you please tell me your true opinion on the National Lockdown Order and the Eye Hunting Order? I am very curious."

"This……"

The smile on Tomoki's face became even more awkward.

This is like the leaders of the Education Bureau coming to inspect and asking students whether they are satisfied with their current school life and whether they have too much homework. Oh, it doesn’t matter, just say it boldly, I guarantee that no teacher will dare to trouble you!

Having said that…

But how many people dare to tell the truth at this time?

He rubbed his hands awkwardly and said carefully, "Well... I'm just an ordinary citizen. I don't really know much about state affairs. How about... I make you another cup of dango milk? The kind that's free."

God knows whether the general is really curious about the public's opinions or simply wants to use law enforcement as a bait.

If it's the former, it's easy to deal with... If it's the latter, this day next year will be the anniversary of his death.

He hadn't yet made Dango Milk famous, nor had he become famous in the entire Inazuma cuisine world, so how could... he fail in a place like this? !

So, don’t ask. If you ask, it means you are not clear, don’t understand, and don’t want to say.

Shadow frowned.

"Are you afraid of me?"

She is not a fool. Zhishu's attitude is obviously not as normal as treating ordinary guests. It is more like a subordinate who is terrified when facing his boss's inspection.

Could it be that her identity was exposed?

Such a thought flashed through his mind, and Ying was a little confused.

It doesn't make sense.

She had clearly disguised herself carefully and put on a mask. The other party was just an ordinary person, so how could he possibly see through her identity?

Zhishu: “…”

Zhishu thought to himself, "General, can you change your target to cause trouble? I just want to sell dumplings and milk quietly. It's not against the law of heaven. What have I done wrong? Is it worth being tortured like this?"

exhausted.

As if seeing his despair, Su Che beside him added:

"Shopkeeper, there's really no need to be so nervous. We have no ill intentions. We are just doing a simple opinion poll. If you really don't want to say it, forget it."

As he spoke, he took Ying's hand and turned to leave.

Zhishu: “…”

Perhaps because the performance was too realistic, Tomoki hesitated for a moment, but still called out to their backs.

"Guest... please stay."

Ying was somewhat happy: "Have you changed your mind?"

Tomoki shook his head.

Hesitantly said: "You... haven't paid yet."

……ten minutes later.

After packing up the stall, a few people sat together in an inconspicuous corner.

It was still Zhishu who spoke first.

Perhaps because he had too many things to say, he said a lot of things in bits and pieces.

"Let's not talk about the Eye Hunting Order... It has nothing to do with ordinary people like us. It's better to say that with the Eye Hunting Order, those bigwigs who possess the Eye of God will lose the courage to fight and be violent, which is also helpful for public security."

"But the lockdown order..."

He paused, carefully glanced at the general's reaction, and after confirming that the general did not show any "murderous intent", he swallowed his saliva and continued:

"Although many people don't say it out loud, they are actually secretly discussing when this lockdown will end."

"It's not so bad for a small business like ours... Although we don't have as many customers as before, we can still make a living. If one person is full, the whole family will not be hungry."

"However, many old stores have been greatly affected."

"Take Ogura Mio, the proprietress of Ogura-ya, for example. Her clothing store is very famous throughout Inazuma. Even Princess Shiraha and Miss Kamisato have ordered custom clothes from her. How glorious is that?"

"But what now?"

"The warehouse has always used dyes from Liyue, but now Liyue's ships can't come in, and Inazuma's ships can't leave. The warehouse's inventory is running out very quickly... The lady boss is getting so anxious that her head is bald. I've seen her commission nearby adventurers several times to find a new dye that can replace the neon flower, but to no avail."

"There are many such examples... I won't list them all."

"Of course, I'm not saying this because I'm dissatisfied with the General's actions! As a native of Inazuma, I firmly support all of the General's orders and actions! I believe others think so too!"

Zhishu did not forget to put on a shield while speaking, raised his five fingers to the sky as if swearing, and spoke righteously.

But he soon turned bitter and whispered, "So, what we are saying is... the general's original intention may be good, but is there a possibility... I mean, maybe, the people below misunderstood, which led to the situation today?"

"To be honest, after seeing how prosperous Inazuma was, with merchant ships coming and going and foreign tourists and businessmen everywhere, I feel a little uncomfortable when I see how deserted it is now..."

"That is... If you are really here to conduct a public opinion survey, can you please report this to the General? If not, just pretend I didn't say anything..."

Ying remained silent until they left the stall and walked some distance.
