Genshin Impact: I am an ordinary executive

"Eh... So it's the Fatui... I'm not surprised at all."

Paimon-style stick reading.

In fact, it’s not surprising that Paimon reacted so coldly. In fact, Ying had the same feeling.

When Linnie said they were the Fatui, she found that she was totally calm inside... Sure enough, Fontaine also had the Fatui.

Looking back at the previous journey, Mondstadt, Liyue, Fontaine... even in the desert and Dragonback Mountains, the Fatui can be seen everywhere.

And every time they arrive at a new place, the first people they come into contact with are either the Fatui or people related to the Fatui.

At worst, the reason they were targeted was closely related to the Fatui.

When Linni was laying the groundwork in the early stages, Ying felt vaguely that this trend was somewhat familiar... As expected, the brother and sister are both members of the Fatui.

So, should she be wanted next? Should she just run away or go through the formalities?

"After all, you and the Fatui have dealt with each other many times. The outside world is saying that you are actually non-staff members of the Fatui... Even some people within the Fatui say that you are actually the hidden executive officers, right?"

Linny laughed when he saw the two's overly calm reactions. It turned out that Lord Zuoxi had never thought of concealing the specialness of these two people... Not only were the badges given out, but the entire Fatui knew that Lord Mo Xi had these two close friends, and they had to treat them well when they met them.

It's no wonder that Linnet was jealous; this was indeed a bit too much favoritism.

"Ahaha, Zuo Xi did invite Ying to be the executive officer... Um, let's not talk about this. Thank you for your help. Besides this, is there anything else you want to talk to us about?"

Paimeng remembered that Ying once told her that when they first met, Zuo Xi had half-jokingly invited Ying to be an executive... She remembered that Ying seemed to have refused, and the reason was quite impolite.

Bringing out the reason of "not going along with the crowd" at this time might make the atmosphere even more awkward, and would also make the two of them look a little ungrateful, so Paimon cleverly skipped this topic.

Based on past experience, Linny and the others probably came to the door because they had something else to ask.

The other party seemed to know Zuo Xi and they seemed to have a pretty good relationship...Based on Zuo Xi's previous performance, it was more likely that they had other purposes.

“It’s nothing special. To be honest, Linnet and I just wanted to observe you secretly at first and see for ourselves what kind of people you are.

In addition, we are also doing what we can for our country. Because the two things do not conflict, and the latter can serve as a cover for the former, so we carry them out simultaneously. "

Linnie scratched his head. If they said they had another purpose... that was indeed true, but their purpose of observing the travelers had been achieved.

I had no intention of showing up, but I happened to see that the other party was in trouble, so I helped out for my brother's sake.

"Do what you can for the country? What happened to Fontaine?"

Paimon couldn't help but have a bad feeling... It would be fine if it was just picking up trash to protect the environment or something.

But Linny's tone didn't sound like it was a small matter. Could it be that Fontaine was also going to face some major event?

Why do they keep seeing big events wherever they go? They are here to travel, not to survive!

"Well... do you know the legend in the Fontaine language? It says that the people of Fontaine are born with original sin. One day, the sea water will rise and the people of Fontaine will dissolve in the sea, leaving only the water god weeping on the throne."

Linnie didn't waste any time and briefly introduced to the two the prophecy of Fontaine that had been circulating for a long time and was familiar to every Fontaine person.

For Fontaine, the content of that prophecy is equivalent to the destruction of Fontaine... not the physical destruction of the city of Fontaine, but real extinction.

All Fontaine people will be dissolved in the predicted disaster. At that time, there will be no Fontaine in Teyvat except the weeping water god.

"Wow... this sounds like a weird prophecy... it can't be true, right? It sounds like the kind of story that parents tell to scare their children... do you think it's true?"

Paimon got goosebumps when he heard this. The weird thing about this prophecy was that the destruction it described was in the form of "dissolution" rather than some ordinary death.

This kind of thing beyond common sense not only makes the prophecy absurd, but also inexplicably adds a bit of mystery.

"I also think that this language sounds a bit... bizarre, but you should have a basis for it. Have you found anything that can be used as evidence?"

Ying and Paimeng have similar opinions. As for prophecies, although they know that they do exist, it is impossible for them to believe every prophecy of unknown origin, right?

There must be some basis for this, otherwise you will just do nothing every day and be deceived.

"It's not really evidence... At first we just did a spontaneous investigation, just to be prepared. But after investigation we found that the water level of Fontaine has indeed been rising a little bit in recent years..."

Linnet, who was taciturn and had always had some opinions about the two travelers, naturally took over the topic. The two turned around and saw that the other party had taken out a coffee cup and was sipping coffee.

"Would you like some? I have sugar cubes and condensed milk."

Seeing the Traveler and Paimon looking at her in amazement and relief, Linnett didn't take it seriously and even invited them to have coffee together.

"Okay, okay, I'll add condensed milk and sugar cubes... Paimon has some snacks here, let's eat together."

Paimon nodded instinctively, then took out some well-packaged snacks from his bulging trouser pocket and distributed them to everyone.

"What a surprise. I thought you would at least complain a little... Seeing how relieved you look, I guess you must have had tea parties with Master Zuo Xi quite often."

Linnie declined the ladies' offer to take a break from their busy schedules, and just sighed at how skillful the three of them were and how well they coordinated...it turned out to be a "good habit" brought up by the same person.

For example, I didn’t know why my body started moving, and when I came to my senses, I had already drunk half of the coffee cup.

"I'm used to it. Did you know that Zuo Xi has a small refrigerator? There are all kinds of delicious food in it, and the tea he drinks is a limited edition with a limited production volume each year!"

The happiest moment for Paimeng with Zuo Xi was whenever she held a tea party. Most of the goodies Zuo Xi brought out would go into her stomach, and before she knew it, what she ate and drank could cover her food expenses for half a year, and she didn't have to worry about it at all.

Every time at that time, she would lament that the gap between the rich and the poor in the world was so huge, far beyond her imagination.

"Of course. The tea from Qiaoying Manor is considered the best in the whole of Teyvat. It would be a waste of nature's treasure to give it to a wild boar like you who can't tell the difference."

Because it happened so naturally, the four of them didn't notice the sudden appearance of the coffee table or the fifth person who blended in with them without noticing.

It was not until the other party spoke that they realized that they should have discovered the abnormality long ago.

"Zuo Xi! When did you come? Why are you still like a ghost?"

Among the four, only Paimeng's reaction was the biggest. After Zuo Xi became a god, his tricks of pretending to be a god became more and more natural. In the past, he would just suddenly appear to scare them, but now he can do it without actively exposing himself and can even blend in quietly.

After all, you are a god of noble status now, please don't do such childish things! Learn more from other... Well, none of the other gods are decent.

"It's been a while. I was planning to come here to look for Linnet and Linny. But I happened to run into you guys, so I wanted to see how you guys would get along."

Zuo Xi did not shy away from it and confessed openly in front of the two people who were following him.

What’s more bizarre is that not only did the two people being followed not mind at all, the other two also didn’t seem surprised at all.

He's a repeat offender, and they're used to it.

"Is that so... I thought Brother-sama was worried about the two travelers, so he came to check on me and Brother."

Linnet's sarcastic skills are no less than Zuo Xi's. The sour smell and dissatisfaction are simply beyond words, and combined with the sarcastic content, the whole person's resentment seems to have become substantial.

"How could that be? Don't I often come to Fontaine to see you? Also, I've told you many times not to call me Brother... If you insist on calling me that, please change the way you call Alecino.

Let me think... I'll just call you Sister-sama."

Zuo Xi has always felt bad because she was one generation younger than Alechino out of nowhere. But Linnet and the other two were very obedient at other times, except for being very persistent about this title.

Even though he reminded them so many times, the three of them still kept calling them. Especially Linnet, every time after he reminded them, she would squint her eyes and call them again in a coquettish voice.

"I understand, Brother~Brother~Sir~"

...Just like now, so sometimes the black-bellied little cat is really frustrating.

"You might as well pinch a little more, so that when Sandone sets his sights on you, don't beg Alechino to save you."

After tapping Linnet's head lightly and pinching her cat's ears, Zuo Xi turned around and looked at Ying and Paimeng.

"Do you two have any complaints about Zhidong?"

Zuo Xi's tone was a little harsh, and his expression could be described as smiling on the outside but not on the inside, or perhaps smiling with a dagger hidden inside... In short, Paimeng and Ying felt a little uneasy when they saw it.

"No, no... Why are you asking?"

Although he didn't know why he felt guilty, Paimeng still didn't dare to meet Zuo Xi's eyes. Ying also felt a little guilty, but she probably knew why Zuo Xi questioned him.

"It's not a big problem... Why don't you just travel in Zhidong? Why do you have to come all the way to Fontaine? What's wrong with Zhidong that makes you dislike it so much... You'd better tell me the reason, otherwise you won't be able to set foot in Zhidong's borders in the future."

Zuo Xi had a bad look on his face. He originally thought that Ying and the others had already reached the winter solstice, so the itinerary should be changed.

He never expected that these two people would rather take a boat to Fontainebleau than continue their journey in Zhidong... Is this dissatisfaction with Zhidong?

Obviously, that bastard Dotorre has been killed, and only the cowardly one who doesn't cause much trouble is left. And he has just taken the position... This is too disrespectful!

"Ah, this... this has a reason! Please listen to our explanation. Please listen to our explanation carefully!"

Paimeng hurriedly waved her hands to explain. She almost forgot that Zuo Xi was narrow-minded and was particularly fond of nitpicking... She had to think of a reason quickly, otherwise Zuo Xi would not let her go.

Paimon was in a hurry and kept winking at Ying, but Ying pretended not to see anything. She whistled while looking at the sky, drank a few sips of coffee and ate a few bites of dessert... and immediately distanced herself from the matter.

"Paimon is the guide, you should ask her for this matter."

Then he continued to drink coffee and eat snacks... How decisive and ruthless he was. Ying's heart was as cold as if it had been frozen in the solid ice of winter for five hundred years.

Paimon was shivering with cold, and his back felt cold... The chill in his back might have nothing to do with Ying's cruelty, because Zuo Xi's eyes had become more and more dangerous.

"That's right, that's right...that's right...it's because of the guide!"

Paimon's forehead was covered with sweat. In a moment of desperation, an idea suddenly occurred to him and he finally came up with a decent excuse for her.

"Because the winter chapter of the Teyvat Travel Guide hasn't been released yet, we can only go to the place where the Fontaine chapter guide has been purchased!"

After saying this, Paimon breathed a sigh of relief... This reason was perfect, there was absolutely no problem with it!

After all, the author of the travel guide is very mysterious, and the updates are not so regular... Although I haven't observed it yet, it is certain that the Winter Solstice chapter has not been released!

"...You... Never mind. Since you are Paimon, I can see that you have tried very hard."

Zuo Xi wanted to complain but stopped herself. Although this excuse sounded ridiculous, it really sounded like something that would happen to Paimeng... Paimeng had already tried very hard to come up with such a reason that fits her character. So don't make things difficult for her.

"Yeah, yeah! Hehe... You can't blame us for this. It's all because the author updated too slowly. There's nothing we can do about it."

Paimeng was suddenly carried away by his pride, but Zuo Xi didn't mind. He had already expected that the world would "get back on track" on its own. As long as there was no strong interference, the world would run according to a certain predetermined trajectory.
