Genshin Impact: I am an ordinary executive
Chapter 726 Before the Performance
"Mr. Executive! It is truly an honor and a great thanks to all of you for taking the time out of your busy schedules to watch our performance."
Zuo Xi and the others arrived relatively early. At this time, apart from the trembling brother and sister, there was no one else in the hall except the staff.
Under the guidance of Femini, the moment Zuo Xi and others stepped into the hall, Lini took the lead and took off his magic hat, respectfully expressing his gratitude and joy for the arrival of the executives.
If nothing else, at least in terms of etiquette, Linny did a pretty good job. Linnet followed closely behind, bowing and thanking her brother, her ears twitching slightly in anxiety.
If Sandoni hadn't been sitting on his hands and the occasion was a little formal, he might have started kneading by now.
"No need to be polite. We would be very happy if Mr. Magician and Miss Assistant reserved a great viewing seat for us."
Only in such formal occasions would Zuo Xi show his grace that he never deliberately showed at other times. Even if it was Sandone, it would not be easy for him to stay in his hands at this moment.
After Zuo Xi started to behave formally, she consciously lowered her body and returned to the floating chair she had prepared.
"Please rest assured, the seats for the executive officers and the two travelers are ready. Here are your tickets...
I am extremely sorry, but the opera house's charter is not something that I can change alone. It is my fault for bothering you all to go through this complicated process..."
Among these executive officers, there are also those who are extremely picky about form and details. Lady Rosalin and my brother are both very particular about this type.
Therefore, Linnie tried his best to achieve the utmost in every detail, and for the parts that could not be changed, he chose to deal with them in this way of actively apologizing.
In any case, we cannot let the executive officers point out problems on their own initiative.
"How thoughtful. I probably didn't tell you that Xiaoxi and Nata would be coming too? That's really thoughtful."
Femini took all the tickets and handed them to Zuo Xi, then respectfully returned to her seat side by side with Linnet, one body position behind Linni.
Zuo Xi took the tickets and found that they included the tickets for Nata and Abe Xi, who were not supposed to appear in the planned tickets. It was obvious that Linni and the others had really put in a lot of effort for this meeting.
Unbeknownst to him, the two of them had probably rehearsed today's events countless times.
"It is my duty to serve the Executive Officer." *3
Linni, Linnet, and Femini said in unison. This scene had not been rehearsed. After all, this kind of scene was something that almost every Fatui knew by heart.
"Well, get busy. Your other assistants seem to need your help."
Zuo Xi waved his hand to let Lini leave, and the three nodded and stepped back to make room. Just when Lini thought that this was just a casual remark from his elder brother, a whisper from another member of his team actually sounded behind him.
"Hey - Mr. Linney, please...ah, the executive officers!"
The magic troupe member named Cowell stopped shouting halfway. He never thought that his impromptu shout would disturb so many executive officers.
When the eyes of the big shots were focused on him, he even felt a strong sense of suffocation.
A person of weight, his gaze, words, and breathing all carry a great deal of weight.
Lini was nervous. As the saying goes, there is always a loophole in a hundred plans. This is exactly what happened now. He had clearly arranged everything, but he didn't expect that an accident would happen at the critical moment.
However, he soon found that his nervousness was unnecessary. His brother just gave him a reassuring smile, and then led the executive officers and the travelers into the inner hall of the opera house from the entrance.
After everyone had left, Lini finally relaxed. He touched his forehead and found it was covered in cold sweat.
"I am so sorry, Master Linny... I didn't know you were receiving the executive officers..."
Cowell's face turned pale with fright. As an entourage member of this magic show with a special purpose, he was naturally a member of the Fatui.
That's why he realized how terrible it was to disturb the interest of the executive officers...especially when there were so many executive officers.
He, is it possible that he will unexpectedly appear in the winter glacier tomorrow?
"It's not your fault, Mr. Cowell. It's my fault for not notifying them properly... Don't worry, those big shots are just here to watch the show. Lord Urken will take care of it all. Even if you don't believe me, you should believe the former Lord Mortal, right?"
It will soon be time for the official performance, and any mental problems among the accompanying personnel at this time may be magnified in the performance.
So Linnie had to reassure him and make him follow the plan accurately.
What's more, what he said was true. Although the number of executive officers who came this time was a bit scary, it was essentially just an entertainment performance.
Although it is inevitable to be nervous, usually no big problems will arise. Besides, my brother is kind and generous to others, and he will never be fussy about such a small matter... Although it is not perfect, the impact should not be great.
"Okay, go get ready... Did you need me for something? Is there something wrong with the stage?"
Linney patted Cowell on the shoulder. Diverting attention is the best way to relieve a person's tension.
"Yes! Lord Linny! This is what happened..."
……
"Zuo Xi, you just put on airs again."
After entering the inner hall of the opera house and making sure that he was separated from Lini and the others outside, Paimon simply stopped pretending, and didn't want to wait even a second longer to say what he had been holding back for so long.
She had wanted to complain just now, because she rarely saw Zuo Xi in formal activities, so Zuo Xi, who looked serious and had just the right aura as a big shot, made Paimeng and Ying dumbfounded.
After spending so long getting along so casually, they had almost forgotten that Zuo Xi was actually one of the most prestigious people in Teyvat.
It was like this before, and it is even more so now.
As one of the top people in this world, it is not surprising that Zuo Xi can easily take advantage of such occasions.
However, the contrast between this formal look and his usual casual look mixed with a bit of sleazyness was too great, and they couldn't adapt to it for a while.
"You little pet are quite good at complaining... I have to say, this guy really looks like the real deal when he pretends to be so. When he was on the same stage with the Queen, I was wondering if this guy had been replaced."
Rosaline rarely stood on the same side as Paimon. She had seen Zuo Xi's performance in formal occasions many times, but when he was on the high platform and the queen bowed her head, his holiness and domineering temperament made her feel unreal.
It was probably from that moment that Zuo Xi completed his transformation from an important chess piece to a chess player with the power to overturn the table.
"It doesn't count as gossiping behind someone's back in front of them, but I still hope you can consider the feelings of the person you're bullying."
Zuo Xi was speechless. It was indeed not good to talk about others behind their backs, but was it still too much to do it in front of them?
"What else? No one is allowed to talk behind their backs or in front of them... The majesty of the Lord God really cannot be offended."
Ever since Zuo Xi asked Alechino to be more normal, she has really become much more normal. This familiar sarcasm, the familiar ridicule... Sure enough, people who are in charge of diplomacy are all poisonous.
"Well... it's up to you. Take your tickets and take your seats. We are guests, and guests must observe corresponding etiquette."
After everyone got their tickets and took their seats, Zuo Xi saw the figure of the water dragon next to him as expected.
He had instructed Linnie to place him next to Villette, and the others could be placed anywhere they wanted.
Before entering, he had checked everyone's tickets. There was a seat between him and Ying, and on either side of him were Sandoni and the empty seat.
At that time, he guessed that this position belonged to Villette. It can only be said that Linny is still reliable.
"Then Mr. Villette, I hope we are all well."
After sitting down, Zuo Xi took the initiative to talk to Navilette, and also attracted the attention of Paimon and Ying who were sitting next to Navilette.
"Then, then Villette?! Could this be the Supreme Judge of Fontaine that Linny mentioned? Even such a big shot came to see Linny's performance? So... Linny and Linette have become so famous! "
Paimeng was shocked. She was just considering whether to chat with the man next to her who looked like a wealthy and important person just by looking at his clothes. She didn't expect that the other party's identity was even more prominent than she thought!
The highest judge of Fontaine...if you convert it, isn’t it similar to Zuo Xi’s previous identity, both of whom are among the most distinguished people in Teyvat?
Linny's arrangement is too grand. Will Funina come along too?
"It hasn't been that long since we last met in winter... But it's nice to see you again, Mr. Urken."
That Villette stood up and responded to Zuo Xi's greeting, then turned around and humbly communicated with Paimon and the others.
Thank you for your compliment, young lady. My position is just a slightly special job. But everyone has their own "position", and relatively speaking, I am not special. "
After stating his views on his position, Navillatte glanced at a seat high up.
"Oh, by the way, although I am a little reluctant, I will still remind you..."
Navilette retracted his gaze and looked at the Traveler and Paimon again. Just as he was about to remind the two of them that it was almost time to pay a little attention to the Water God who was waiting to be discovered on the stage, Zuo Xi spoke first.
"It's been a long time since we met again, Lady Finina... How are you preparing?"
Zuo Xi stood up and bowed slightly, imitating what Furningna had done. Although the opening was a little different from what she had imagined, Furningna was still very happy that someone noticed her.
"Of course, the duel with the traveler is the focus of everyone's attention... But the envoy from the extremely cold country, I must correct a misunderstanding of yours - preparation is useless to me, because I am perfect all the time!"
Because she had paid attention to the prophecy the other party had said, Funina instantly understood what the other party meant by preparation, and quickly thought of the perfect opening remarks for the response.
It had been a long time since she had met such a supportive guest, which made Funina happy. Moreover, the guest knew how to cooperate with her to create an atmosphere and boost the enthusiasm of the audience.
The only drawback is that such a perfect opening scene was seen by very few viewers.
After a few days of investigation, she already knew that the man below was the last chief executive who was previously reported to have died.
To be honest, this matter was a bit weird. When she heard the spy's report, she even suspected that she had heard it wrongly.
However, the illusory weirdness was obviously not as real as the real pressure. Along with this news, there was another news - six executives came to Fontaine now.
God knows, this is much more frightening than an executive coming back from the dead.
This even more terrifying news made her accept the resurrection of an executive officer who was supposed to be dead. She was thinking intently whether these six executive officers came to Fontainebleau to massacre the city.
Coupled with the previous rumors about the new god of winter, Furninna was so anxious that she couldn't sleep well for several nights, and her hair was falling out in clumps these days.
However, after secretly observing for a few days, she found that this group of executives seemed to be eating, drinking and having fun all the time...Except for the fact that the "Young Master" liked to pick a fight with others whenever he had the chance, there seemed to be nothing special about them.
And that [servant]... To be honest, if she didn't know that the servants were basically stationed in Fontaine, Funina really wouldn't have known where the sixth executive came from.
After all, she had only seen five people during this period of time. Today there were five people as well, but the "young master" was replaced by a "servant", which confirmed the previous intelligence.
In short, this group of people did not show any special intentions, and her private investigation did not reveal any other arrangements on their part... It should be fine, right?
Speaking of everyone coming out in full force today to dress up for the event... Linny and the others are members of the Hearth House, and they seem to be a group of people with a lot of free time, so there seems to be nothing wrong with coming together to watch the show?
Although it's okay to be careful, being too careful isn't a solution. Most importantly, she actually doesn't have any effective solutions.
So even though she was worried, she could only face it with a high-profile attitude as usual, praying that this confident attitude would make those with ulterior motives have some concerns.
"I see. It seems I was presumptuous... Well then, I will look forward to this duel with the highest expectations. Lady Funina, please do not let me down."
