Chapter 171 Group photo
"Are you leaving?"
Finding that Liu Bai wouldn't let her get close, Funina, who had hidden herself tightly, had no choice but to ask.
"Oh, I have completed my mission. I need to go back and submit the mission items to claim my reward."
Hearing the other party's question, Liu Bai nodded and answered truthfully.
"That's it..."
Furninna lowered her head somewhat disappointedly.
"…Then you must promise me that you will at least live happily in the future."
Funina said this with her head down, then took out a small box from her clothes and handed it to Liu Bai.
Liu Bai took it doubtfully and opened the small box under Funina's gaze.
Inside the box were some photos taken with a camera, including a scene of Funina being chased by a manta ray, a picture of her going out for a rare picnic, and a picture of her rubbing the Bulgemon hard.
Another person can also be seen in these photos. This person looks almost exactly like Liu Bai, with the only difference being his clothing style.
"I hope you can always be happy in the future, because your smile has always been a good medicine for me to relieve stress. If I see you crying, perhaps all the stress that I have relieved in the past will come back to overwhelm me."
"So promise me that you will at least live happily in the future, even if I can't see you."
After Liu Bai finished looking at the photos, Funina spoke to him gently and reached out a hand to stroke Liu Bai's cheek.
"Eh……"
Feeling the palm on his cheek, Liu Bai was a little dazed, not knowing what to do.
"What are you doing?"
At this moment, Nashida's dissatisfied voice came from the side.
Finina quickly retracted her hand and pretended nothing had happened.
"Ahem, anyway, I wish you all the best on your voyage. Come visit Fontaine more often when you have time. Um... I'm leaving first."
Being stared at by Nashida, Furninna spoke hurriedly to Liu Bai and then ran away.
Liu Bai rubbed the cheek that had been touched with his hand and looked at Nashida with an innocent face.
"Okay, okay, let's go down quickly. Maybe the ship will leave soon."
Nashida did not blame Liu Bai. She helped him put the photos in the small box into his pocket. Then she reached out and pulled him up from the chair, and led him towards the elevator.
After going down the elevator, we left the Fontaine Plateau. Although this is still the sea, it has left the Fontaine Lake. The life in the water is no longer as special as that in the Fontaine Lake, and there are no life forms like the Turbid Water Phantom.
At this time, there was already a large merchant ship belonging to Zhidong waiting.
"Xiaobai! Nashida! You are finally here!"
After waiting for a while, Navia and the others waved to Liu Bai and the others who came out of the elevator.
"Greetings, Master Wangzhe."
Linny and the other children from the Hearth House also greeted Liu Bai.
After all, Liu Bai's identity as executive officer is no secret to Navia and the others.
At first, they were a little sad about him joining Winter Solstice after being exiled, but they were relieved when they found that Liu Bai did not turn bad.
"I wonder if you two are satisfied with your trip to Fontaine. I have prepared a car of Fontaine specialties and souvenirs for you. Please take them with you when you get on board."
Navia brought Liu Bai and Nashida to the front of the crowd, then pointed at the goods piled up next to them and spoke to them.
"Oh, thank you, big golden retriever!"
Liu Bai said to Navia gratefully.
"Hehe, come on, come on, let me take a group photo for everyone before we leave. After all, we will have fewer opportunities to meet in the future."
At this time, Charlotte came up with her own camera and made a suggestion.
"Okay, it would be nice to take a photo as a souvenir."
Nashida nodded and agreed.
After getting Narcida's consent, Charlotte quickly ran to the front and set up the camera.
"Wait, if you're taking pictures, at least count me in!"
Just as Liu Bai and everyone else were standing in front of the camera, Funina, who had been standing in the corner nearby, couldn't help but lift up her hood to reveal herself and said.
"Eh? Lady Funina, you are here? Why are you hiding?"
Navia and the others didn't notice that Furninna had come down first, and asked in surprise.
They originally thought that Funina didn't want to come to see them off today, after all, they had invited people yesterday but didn't see her.
"Ahem, of course I have to avoid being recognized. I'm so popular, what should I do if I'm surrounded by fans..."
Furninha coughed lightly and then explained.
"Then come over and take some photos with us."
Nashida did not reject Furninda, but put her arm around Liu Bai's arm and pulled him close to her.
This scene made Funina a little depressed, but when she thought that Liu Bai was about to leave, she walked over and stood on the other side of Liu Bai.
"Please leave a seat for me... Linette, I'll let you operate the camera."
Charlotte found that they were crowded together, so she quickly turned around and said something to Linnet, then joined them.
Although Linni and Linnette also knew Liu Bai, they did not accept the invitation to take a photo together. After all, they had only met a few times.
"Are you ready?"
Looking at the group of people crowding around Liu Bai through the camera, Linnet asked.
"I'm ready! I can shoot anytime!"
Taking advantage of her height, Navia stood behind Nashida, almost resting her head on Liu Bai's shoulder. She responded to Linnet.
"I'm ready too."
Clorinde stood behind Funina, and although she was also very close to her, she did not deliberately lean towards Liu Bai.
Because Charlotte didn't have a good position to set up the camera, she had to stand next to Funina.
"eggplant."
"Eggplant~!"

As Linnette pressed the shutter, the photo was frozen.
However, she took more than one photo. Instead, she took several photos in succession while no one moved.
Afterwards everyone was given a group photo.
"Goodbye, Xiaobai. You haven't been to Baisong Town as a guest since you came back this time. Next time you come to Fontaine, you must go to Baisong Town to find me."
Navia said goodbye to Liu Bai for the last time, and then watched with everyone else as Liu Bai boarded the merchant ship that would carry him to winter.
On the boat, Alechino also led Krevie, who had turned back into a ghost, out to greet Liu Bai and the others, and then gave a few instructions to Lini and the others on the shore.
During the time she returned to Dongdong, Fontaine was temporarily handed over to Linny.
Beep--
Accompanied by the sound of the whistle, the huge merchant ship slowly set sail.
For this huge merchant ship, as long as there is no wind, no matter how heavy the rain is, it will not affect its navigation.
At the port, Navia and her group waved goodbye to Liu Bai, only Funina stood among them, staring blankly at the ship sailing away.
"… Lower your head for a moment."
Seeing the situation at the port, Nashida pulled Liu Bai's hand and asked him to bend down.
After Liu Bai did as he was told, Nashida whispered something in his ear.
"Okay girl."
Liu Bai nodded, then took out the sea otter doll from the little white house.
Then Liu Bai held the doll in one hand and waved the other hand towards the port.
"I can only give in so far, Furninna."
Nashida folded her arms across her chest and muttered softly.
"..."
Finina is now a god, so she can still see clearly at this distance.
That doll was given to him by himself in his last life in Fontaine...
It was clearly just a popular sea otter doll that he bought at a street store, but it was actually invented by him in his previous life...
But he kept it all the time...
"goodbye……"
With a somewhat forced smile on her face, Furninna was willing to raise her hand and wave over there.
