108, prelude
By the time Paimon finished washing up and put away his little aura, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon.
In order to prevent her from refusing to fly, Lin Chen simply held her hand, which would also prevent her from running around curiously.
Even if he was tightly grasped by Lin Chen, he couldn't stop Paimon's curiosity.
She looked out at the nearby shops and skyscrapers.
Although Lin Chen attended the class reunion before, she had also seen it in the system space, but after all, it was better to see it with her own eyes.
"Wow, is this the Snow King, you love me, I love you, Honey Snow Ice City sweet ......"
Paimon's speed of learning is very fast, and he clapped his hands excitedly when he saw the fat Snow King soliciting guests.
Fortunately, although it was noisy, it did not attract the attention of others.
It's just that Paimon is too cute, and sometimes acquaintances and aunts come up to ask Lin Chen.
Lin Chen could only perfunctorily say that she was the daughter of a distant relative, and she came from home to live for a few days.
The two of them walked around for a while, and then went to a small restaurant to eat something casually.
Since there wasn't much time left at home, there were less than two days left, so I took Paimon to visit the mall and play the downstream park.
Soon back home.
"I'm exhausted......"
As soon as Paimon got home, he lay on his stomach, lying on his stomach.
She hadn't walked for a long time, and after walking for so long today, the soles of her delicate feet were faintly hot.
After a day of world, more and more people have finished the plot after the version update.
This also allowed Lin Chen to understand the world of Sumeru better.
"Over there, the Fatui and the Abyss Order may not be involved in that side in the short term."
Lin Chen pondered for a moment.
Then it occurred to him that the Abyss Order and the Fatui may not have been arranged from the beginning of his crossing.
Maybe it was laid out many years ago.
Otherwise, Zhongli would not have been able to trade his God's Heart with the Empress of the Ice of the Solstice Kingdom without knowing part of the inside story.
It must have been some long-term layout of the Fatui that had already made him aware of something.
Other than that, it's basically not too much.
Three days passed in a flash.
Lin Chen and Paimon return to their home in Liyue on Teyvat.
"Okay, I've had enough fun, let's go to bed early."
"I know, I know, I'm going to work tomorrow!"
"Whatever you want."
Lin Chen saw that it was not too early, so he parted ways with Paimon.
I have to work tomorrow.
Paimon is better off and has a free tool to help.
Early the next morning, Lin Chen took Paimon to the Moon Sea Pavilion.
Ganyu still waited in his office very early, keeping his head down to deal with official documents, focused and serious.
Lin Chen couldn't bear to disturb her, so he found a job and went to do it.
Paimon followed behind Lin Chen's ass and whispered, "Ganyu, has she been so busy all the time?" ”
"That's right."
Lin Chen nodded, and casually cleaned up some of the garbage on the ground.
"Ah, you...... You're coming. ”
I don't know if Ganyu stumbled upon it by herself in the office, or if it was because Lin Chen and Paimon were talking a bit loud.
Ganyu withdrew from his busy state of work, and rubbed his head with his hands tiredly, "I helped you do more work today, you shouldn't be as tired as yesterday." ”
Lin Chen shook his head, "Ganyu, why are you doing this, wouldn't it be worse if you were tired?" ”
"Yes, Ganyu, you work so hard, it's too hard."
Paimon spread his hands.
Ganyu smiled slightly: "Thank you for your concern, but I can still hold on...... Okay, that's it for today's work, please. ”
……
"Whew-"
As soon as he got off work, Paimon collapsed on Lin Chen's head, and his cute little face was loveless at the moment.
"I'm so tired, I really don't know how Ganyu persevered."
Lin Chen wasn't much better than Paimon.
This kind of work is not physically exhausting, but mental.
For example, sometimes there is a quarrel in Liyue, and such small issues have to be mediated by Ganyu.
Not to mention the complicated business disputes, I don't know how many.
"Hey, Lin Chen, how are you doing today?"
Tartaglia checked in and met Lin Chen after work every day, and touched Lin Chen's waist with his elbow very familiarly, and did not shy away from Paimon: "How is it, is there any news?" ”
Lin Chen didn't reply to him, but looked Tartaglia up and down, and then stretched out his hand.
"You haven't paid for the last meal, 50,000 Mora."
"Ah......h
Tartaglia took out the check from his jacket pocket a little embarrassed, and smiled: "I'm sorry, I was in a hurry last time, and I forgot." ”
"Hmmm......"
For the sake of Tartaglia's sincerity, Lin Chen didn't care.
"Okay, can you tell me about the information you got lately?"
Lin Chen looked at Tartaglia's expectant gaze as always, and thought for a while: "There is such a thing, Zhongli asked me to go to him in a few days to prepare the follow-up process of sending the Immortal Ceremony." ”
"Is that all?" Tartaglia was confused.
"yes, otherwise what else can there be?"
Lin Chen shrugged, "By the way, I said that Ningguang made people pay attention to the movements of the Liyue Immortals, how is it, are there any clues?" ”
At the mention of this, Tartaglia nodded and said, "The information you provided is fine, Ningguang is indeed secretly watching the movements of the Liyue Immortals...... However, we haven't found out yet that they have transferred the Immortal Ancestor Method to the immortals in the Peerless Cloud Realm. ”
Lin Chenxin was talking nonsense, the contradiction between the Liyue Seven Stars and the Liyue Immortals was so big.
How could he still send the fuse to the door.
Isn't this tantamount to a provocation?
No matter how stupid Ning Guang was, it was impossible for him to send the Immortal Ancestor Law of the Rock King Emperor there.
It's a pity that Tartaglia didn't think about this relationship, or that he misjudged the relationship between the Liyue Seven Stars and the Liyue Immortals.
"Then I don't know, but if Ningguang doesn't send the Immortal Ancestor Method to the Immortals, then at least it should be under the joint defense of the Seven Stars of Liyue...... With our strength, it seems that there is not much chance of winning. ”
Tartaglia folded his arms and pondered, "That's true, that's why I need you to find a chance, to find the most relaxed time when the Immortal Ancestor Fa is protected, so that we can have a little hope of regaining the Heart of God." ”
"Speaking of which, since I came here for the heart of God, why hasn't my boss shown up?"
Lin Chen asked.
Tartaglia shook her head, "I once came to the door, and she only said that she had received a secret order from Her Majesty the Empress, and asked me not to ask. ”
"Since you don't have any news here, then I'll go."
Seeing Dalia leave, Paimon, who had not spoken, suddenly burst out laughing.
"Hehe, this Zhongli exclusive ATM Tartaglia is so stupid, I didn't even notice that you were lying."
Lin Chen knocked her on the head, "Don't say it here, the wall has ears." ”
"Originally, but can we also let him pay us later? Just like Zhongli. ”
Paimon wondered.
"When the Immortal Rite Ceremony is over, it's a question of whether he's still in Liyue or not."
The two talked and laughed and were about to go home, but they were stopped halfway.
