He was curious again: "What about those two guests from Liyue? I remember one of them is from Yuheng Star, one of the seven stars of Liyue? What kind of work can they do that requires the cooperation of our club?"
Although he is a Mondstadt native who has been stranded in Inazuma, Thomas is considered a well-known local boss in Mondstadt, with extensive connections and well-informed information.
Inazuma has been living in seclusion for so long, and suddenly two strangers came. One of them has a high status, so it is impossible for such big news to be hidden from him.
Originally, Thomas did not take this matter to heart. The identities of the Seven Stars of Liyue were not something he could approach casually. He probably thought that they came to Inazuma to do serious business and had nothing to do with him.
But now that the master of the house has said so, Mr. Housekeeper is already considering whether to find an opportunity to contact them. It can also be regarded as getting information in advance.
"It seems that the two guests came to Inazuma to do some business."
Kamisato Ayato is not very clear about the details now. After all, the general only gave a general idea and finally asked him to investigate it personally.
"Business?"
Thomas was even more surprised. Doing business was not uncommon, but traveling across the ocean and crossing thunderstorms just to come to Inazuma to do business, and even getting the support of the general, was very rare.
Who doesn't know that the General has always been pursuing eternity?
This external factor is undoubtedly the biggest hidden danger to breaking the Inazuma situation. Given the general's temper, it would be considered restrained if he didn't kill them all with a single blow. So how could he personally stand up for them?
"This is not something we need to worry about."
Kamisato Ayaka smiled helplessly. The three magistrates sounded like they were from a noble and aristocratic family, but in the final analysis, they were just employees under the general.
Life and death, honor and disgrace all depend on the general's hands.
Since the boss has spoken, he has no choice but to do as he is told.
The young family head pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "Thomas, go now, prepare a generous gift, and come with me to visit the two distinguished guests later."
It's rare that the general gives me a mission. If I do it, I have to do it to the best of my ability.
The intelligence we have now is still too little, and the most urgent task is to get in touch with the target as soon as possible.
The Kamisato family seems to be in a very prosperous state now, but Kamisato Ayato has never forgotten how many people secretly want to bring him down.
If this matter is not handled well, there will be villains who will take the opportunity to make suggestions and suppress the Kamisato family.
Even if the general is merciful and only gives a minor punishment, it will still leave a bad impression of "incompetence".
As the head of the Kamisato family, he would not allow this to happen.
"I understand. I'll do it right away."
Thomas also understood the seriousness of the matter. His expression became serious and he walked outside.
Wait until he leaves.
Ling Ren let out a sigh and glanced at a corner behind the screen.
"Linghua, do you want to hide again?"
The room fell silent.
After a long silence, the girl in white training clothes came out somewhat embarrassedly.
"Brother…I didn't mean to eavesdrop," she whispered.
The young girl had beautiful silver hair, tied into a ponytail at the back of her head, revealing the white nape of her neck like a kendo girl.
At this moment, those sky-blue eyes were looking at his brother uneasily. He bit his lips gently, then lowered his head, ready to face the judgment.
Ayato was both angry and amused.
Seeing his sister like this, he, as her brother, looks like a bad guy.
I had no choice but to say:
"Okay, I'm not going to blame you. I have something to do later, so you better stay at home and don't run around."
As if she had sensed something, Linghua raised her little head like a thief and observed her brother's expression.
After confirming that he was not angry, I mustered up the courage and whispered:
"Brother...are you going to meet the distinguished guest from Inazuma with Thomas later?"
Ayato nodded, and before her sister could speak, she spoke first:
"I reject."
"But I... haven't said what I'm going to do yet..."
Linghua spoke weakly.
"What else can I do?"
A brother knows his sister best. Ling Ren said calmly, "Want to go with us to visit the distinguished guest? If you have such a plan, Ling Hua, I can only tell you that you can't."
"Brother, you are unreasonable!"
Princess Shiragiri, who was quite famous among Inazuma, puffed up her cheeks, somewhat dissatisfied.
She is obviously no longer the innocent and helpless little girl she once was...why does her brother still treat her like a child?
Obviously, she can also make her own contribution to the Kamisato family!
"Linghua, I understand how you feel."
Ayato rubbed his sister's head and smiled faintly, "But the meaning of a brother's existence is to protect his sister from the wind and rain and to overcome all difficulties."
It’s not that I don’t believe in my sister’s abilities.
Just as Ayato said, the meaning of a brother's existence is to protect his sister from wind and rain and to clear away obstacles for her.
She doesn't have to participate in power struggles, nor does she have to face the darkness of the world.
As an older brother, Ayato would arrange everything for his younger sister.
She just needs to be her own Egret Princess peacefully, forever carefree and innocent.
Just like, when I was a kid.
Linghua remained silent for a long time and did not answer.
Of course my heart is warm.
But... she doesn't want to be a vase-like lady who doesn't bother with the world.
Her father passed away when she was young and her mother was in poor health. She was so sad and heartbroken that she passed away soon after, accompanying her husband.
In the huge Kamisato family, only a pair of underage siblings were left.
At that time, it was the elder brother who stood up, took up the banner of the Kamisato family, and kept all the malicious intent out.
Linghua knew very early that she was not a genius, but in order to help her brother and to do her part for the Kamisato family, she changed her playful personality and spent all her time learning kendo, illustration, tea art, dance...
Hard work is not in vain, sweat always pays off.
She was already a qualified daughter of a wealthy family, and even had the reputation of "White Egret Princess" among the people of Inazuma.
Linghua thought she was capable enough to help her brother, but her brother still treated her as a young seedling that needed care.
Sooner or later.
Little Egret thought that sooner or later, she would prove it to her brother.
As the eldest daughter of the Kamisato family, I can also contribute to the society and shine my light.
……
Su Che didn't expect that Yingbao would move so quickly.
He said he would open a back door for him, but he just came back for one day and his brother-in-law... bah, Ayato came to the door.
"My name is Kamisato Ayato. I am the current head of the Kamisato family, the lord of the community. I have come here on the orders of the general to visit the two distinguished guests from Liyue. What is your name, friend?"
With a gentle and elegant smile on her face, Kamisato Ayato introduced herself politely.
"Your surname is Su, and your given name is Che. Brother Lingren, you don't have to be polite. Just come if you want to. Why are you carrying a gift?"
As Su Che spoke, he took the gift box from a golden-haired housekeeper, weighed it, and was a little curious about what was inside.
Kamisato Ayato was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
Mr. Su Che is actually a man of temperament.
In Inazuma, only close friends can call each other by their names. If it is the first time they meet, according to normal etiquette, he should call him "Master Kamizato" or "Mr. Kamizato".
Brother Ayato... this name always reminds him of a certain... well, you can call it a simple tall ghost.
But I don’t hate it.
The general has already ordered him to fully cooperate with the two Liyue guests. It would be a good thing if the relationship between the two sides could be closer and more natural.
At least you don't have to be so reserved when you're with each other.
"As the head of the Kamisato family, I haven't visited you for a long time. This is really rude. I hope Mr. Su Che will not mind."
After saying that, Ayato paused and asked inconspicuously, "I wonder if Miss Yuheng is here? I still need to consult her about the cell phone issue."
In the eyes of the master of the house... no, it should be said that in the eyes of many people, the one in charge among these two guests from Liyue should be the young Yuhengxing.
Compared with the famous Keqing, Su Che, a little-known character even in Liyue, is undoubtedly inconspicuous and is regarded by many as a follower or assistant.
There is nothing we can do about it.
After all, his privacy and identity were protected too well by Ningguang, and his reputation was only spread to a certain extent among the core members of the Qun Yu Pavilion.
Kamisato Ayato could not escape this vicious circle. Perhaps at another time and place, he would have gotten to know the unconventional Mr. Su Che.
But right now, it is more important to complete the general's task first.
"If you're here for the phone, just talk to me directly. There's no need to look for Keqing."
Su Che said this casually with a very normal attitude.
Ayato frowned...Looking at this Brother Su, it seems that he is not just an assistant.
Have you ever seen an assistant speak so casually to his boss? He even called his boss by his name.
It can be seen that he put himself and Miss Keqing on the same level, and there was no distinction between the two of them.
Although Miss Keqing is young, she is one of the seven rulers of Liyue. In terms of status, her position is comparable to that of the head of another society.
Since the other party dared to put herself on an equal footing with her, could it be that she had really misjudged him?
"May I ask, Brother Su, how successful are you in Liyue?" He decided to play it safe and get the most out of the information first.
"I am just a researcher in Qun Yu Pavilion."
Su Che spread his hands and was about to say something when a sleepy figure walked out from the inner room.
"Good morning...eh? Are there any guests?"
Purple hair, short skirt, black stockings, cat ears.
It’s Aqing.
She was so engrossed in playing Plants vs. Zombies yesterday that she didn't want to leave at night, and kept pestering Su Che. Su Che was so annoyed by her that he had no choice but to allow her to stay overnight.
Then the cat played until the early morning before going to bed.
In the end, Master Su couldn't stand it anymore and snatched the Switch from her when she wasn't paying attention, otherwise she would have to stay up all night.
"This is Miss Yuheng, right?"
Kamisato Ayato looked at the girl in front of him for a few seconds. She was younger than he had imagined, probably only sixteen or seventeen years old, the same age as Ayaka.
He is also very good-looking. His sister is the famous Princess Egret, who is recognized as beautiful by the people of Inazuma.
But now, facing this young Yuhengxing, even Kamisato Ayato had to admit that the other party's appearance was not inferior to his own sister.
Do you understand that A-Qing has both good looks and strength? (Tactical retreat)
Ahem, the above sentence doesn’t count.
The head of the family smiled gently, "My name is Kamisato Ayato, and I am the current head of the Kamisato family. This is Thomas, the Kamisato family's household official. I have come to visit you two on the orders of the general."
Thomas on the side also waved his hand with a bright smile: "Master Yuhengxing, hello."
"Ah."
Aqing nodded to the latter, then looked at the blue-haired man beside him and said thoughtfully: "Kamisato Ayato... I have heard of you, the head of the Third Magistrate, the Magistrate of the Society. You are truly a young talent. Nice to meet you."
"Ms. Keqing is great."
Lingren smiled and said, "To be able to sit on the throne of Yuheng Star at such a young age, Miss Keqing's achievements really put me to shame."
