Chapter 451 Liyue's Eighth Hall
Liu Bai was originally going to watch Yun Jin's performance today, and this commission also required him to be present on site to complete it. Isn't this a free reward?
After receiving the task, Liu Bai covered his mouth and laughed foolishly, then rushed towards Heyu Teahouse.
"Mr. Liu Bai, I heard that your commission completion rate is very high. I'll leave this investigation to you."
In the backstage of Heyu Teahouse, Yun Jin smiled and said to Liu Bai upon learning that he had accepted the commission.
Liu Bai had often followed Zhongli to watch plays more than a year ago. Last time, Zhongli even asked her to sign an autograph for Liu Bai, so Yun Jin had a very deep impression of Liu Bai.
"Don't worry. I will go through fire and water for Mr. Yunjin. If anyone dares to play tricks again, I will find them out for you."
Liu Bai immediately patted his chest and made the promise.
"Yun Jin thanks Mr. Liu Bai..."
Liu Bai's promise seemed a bit too much, which made Yun Jin feel a little embarrassed, but she still thanked Liu Bai.
"I'll leave you here today. I should go get dressed and get ready for the stage. I have to take my leave now."
Yun Jin explained to Liu Bai and left first, while Liu Bai also came outside and mixed in with the audience, ready to catch the guy who was pretending to be mysterious at any time.
As long as he concentrates, no one's small movements can escape his perception. For example, a young man in front of the table on the left side of the railing took advantage of his companions' inattention and secretly reached under the table to adjust the trajectory, which made it less uncomfortable.
On the other side, a young boy and girl were sitting together drinking tea with the boy's brother, but the girl was secretly hooking the boy's brother's leg with her small feet in white silk stockings.
Eh... No, that seems to be a boy's foot, not a girl's...
Liu Bai withdrew his attention in shock and looked elsewhere.
On the other side, a guest at the Wangsheng Hall secretly replaced the tea in the pot with the tea he brought with him, and then brewed a cup for himself with satisfaction.
Whether the tea in this tavern is good or not, of course, depends on the money paid. Coincidentally, he doesn't have much Mora, but he does have some tea.
"Everything looks normal."
Liu Bai nodded, but still observed carefully and diligently.
The opera performance began soon. The opening performer was a little famous and performed quite well. The following performances were all by ordinary performers from the Yunhan Society and their performances were just average.
As for Yunjin, she usually makes her final appearance before the final thank-you performance.
The previous performances were all normal. Liu Bai observed the situation on the scene and did not notice the existence of the headless monster.
However, when Yun Jin went on stage, Liu Bai had already grabbed two cheering sticks in his hands.
Just like that, the headless monster appeared as expected that day, but the adventurer who accepted the adventurer's investigation commission did not notice anything.
This became the only commission that Liu Bai had not completed. According to the judgment of the Adventurer's Association, it was decided to raise the difficulty of this task to the highest level.
This is a level that cannot be completed by a great adventurer who has never failed a mission.
……
The Southern Cross Martial Arts Tournament went relatively smoothly. Although someone stole the final prize, the Eye of God, Ying still became the final champion and won a ticket to board the Death Star.
However, even if the Southern Cross Fleet wants to go to Inazuma, it needs to make sufficient preparations, so Beidou asked Ying and the others to wait for a while.
During this period, Ying and Paimeng had to go back to complete their daily commissions, and Fengyuan Manye rarely got off the boat for a walk.
"Liyue Harbor is so prosperous. I haven't seen such a scene in a long time..."
Walking on the most prosperous Feiyunpo, Fengyuan Manye couldn't help but sigh.
However, as he walked, Fengyuan Manye suddenly saw a familiar sign.
"Eight-level Hall...?"
"Inazuma has been in seclusion for so many years, but the Liyue branch is still open? It looks like business is pretty good..."
Fengyuan Manye muttered in surprise and couldn't help but walk into this store which he was somewhat familiar with in a foreign country.
Sure enough, as soon as he entered the store, he could see quite a few light novels that Yaedo had been promoting in the past two years, as well as some Liyue-style novels.
"Well, weren't these light novels released after Inazuma closed off the country? Why would the branch have them..."
Kaedehara Manye had read some books by Yaedo before, so he was a little confused after seeing a few familiar light novels.
But on second thought, Beidou's fleet was able to pass through the thunderstorm off the coast of Inazuma, so there might be other ways.
"Ok?"
Just then, Kaedehara Manye noticed the pink-haired fox sitting on the counter and flipping through the account book.
"?"
The pink-haired fox also noticed Kaedehara Manye and looked up at him.
"What a familiar little fox. Is the pendant on the ear... the Eye of God?"
Kaedehara Manye muttered softly as she looked at the pink-haired fox on the counter.
After hearing what Fengyuan Manye said, the pink-haired fox raised a paw and touched the Eye of God on his ear, and then ignored him.
For the pink-haired fox, ignoring the Inazuma in front of her would prevent her from being recognized, especially by not speaking.
I don't know if Ying has calmed down. I'll go back and test him some other time...
"What a cute little fox, shop owner, is this your pet?"
Seeing the "shop owner" coming over, Fengyuan Manye asked curiously.
"Ahem, sir, you are joking. This is the general manager of our Yaedang..."
He was mistaken for a store employee by Kaedehara Manye and explained awkwardly, but before he could finish his words, he was glared at by the powder fox and swallowed the title of "editor-in-chief" back.
"total……?"
Seeing that the other party stopped talking halfway through, Fengyuan Manye asked in confusion.
"Ahem, it's the fox our editor-in-chief adopted from Inazuma. In fact, its status is higher than that of a minor editor like me."
In a hurry, the other party could only give this explanation.
"I see. No wonder there's a scent of the Thunder Cherry tree..."
Fengyuan Manye then nodded in understanding.
Hearing what Fengyuan Manye said, the pink-haired fox subconsciously raised one of its paws and sniffed its own scent.
Although she is a fox, she is of the noble Baichen bloodline and does not have body odor.
As for the smell that Fengyuan Manye mentioned, she didn't feel anything and just thought it was something like a breath.
"Well, I didn't expect to see a sequel to this book. Store owner, please help me pack these books."
After learning the origin of the pink-haired fox, Kaedehara Manye did not pay much attention to her, but went aside to select a light novel.
When the time comes, I will bring it to Beidou’s ship to help relieve boredom during the long and boring sea voyage.
"Well, that cutie is almost going to Inazuma, so let's go back with them."
After Kaedehara Manye left, the pink-haired fox began to mutter.
She had been away from home for too long, and Liu Bai probably had forgotten her, so there was no need to say goodbye.
We'll talk about everything after we return to Inazuma and restore our identity.
