Genshin Impact: I am an ordinary executive

Chapter 774 "Sinner"

"Let me see. Let me confirm your charges and sentences. Your charges are...

"Without God's permission, he ate the cake that the Envoy of Winter carefully prepared for God, causing the political core of Fontaine to fall into silence for a short period of time."

A sentence of forty-five days...?"

Paimon could feel that Miss Maretti, the receptionist at Mello Petersburg, paused for a moment when she read out the charge. It was unclear whether she was trying to hold back her laughter or to express surprise and absurdity.

Anyway, no matter what Miss Maretti thought, Paimon and Ying were really shocked by the accusation.

"I was wondering why Zuo Xi was so kind as to treat us to a last meal of cake! It turns out he was waiting for us here! Gu... This is too much, this is too much!"

Paimeng never thought that he would be imprisoned for such a thing. What's the saying? "If you want to accuse someone of a crime, you can always find a pretext." Only a guy like Zuo Xi could come up with such an outrageous charge!

In fact, Paimon really misunderstood Zuo Xi this time. This outrageous accusation had nothing to do with him. It was all Villette's idea.

If you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to understand. The Lord Supreme Inquisitor searched through the code again and again, and finally found such a person who did not lose the reputation of a traveler, the sentence was just right, and it was also easier to frame her... uh, a crime that was easier to handle.

As for whether the charge itself is outrageous or not...it doesn't matter. It's better to say the more outrageous it is, the better. The more outrageous it is, the less likely people will take it seriously.

"This charge is too outrageous... I thought it would be some other charge or something."

Even Ying, who had seen big scenes, was left speechless by this ridiculous accusation.

But when she thought about the many ridiculous things Zuo Xi had done, and this one was not even one of them, she found it not that difficult to understand - she, like Paimeng, felt that this must have been Zuo Xi's idea.

It can only be said that reputation is something that is difficult to reverse once it is established. Zuo Xi himself does not mind it and even enjoys doing it.

"Hmm? Do you have any questions about the charges? If so, you can write a petition to request a review later, but you'll have to pay a lot of money."

Maretti herself was not that surprised. She had been an administrator for a long time and had seen all kinds of crimes. This cake that stole the water god... Although she had never seen this before, she was not surprised.

"No, no, we have no doubts, it's just a little bit unexpected.

I originally thought that our crime would be "slandering the envoy from the Winter Solstice" or "publicly insulting the Winter Solstice envoy in a diplomatic setting" or "attempting to beat the Winter Solstice envoy" or something like that..."

Paimon scratched his head. Her words actually made Maretti feel a little awed.

"That's amazing. You actually did something like this before... Could it be that you have some grudge against the envoys of Winter Solstice?"

For some reason, the accusations spewed out by these two people always have something to do with the four words "Winter Envoy". It is hard not to wonder if there is some deep hatred between them and the envoy.

"However, compared to your previous charges, these are still a little less impressive... Just based on the charge of "stealing the cake", you should be people who can do great things.

Considering how much Lady Funina has always loved desserts, how is this different from assassinating the water god... I thought you had some grievances or something.

Now it seems that you even dare to provoke the Fatui. Do you have the guts to do so? "

Maretti's eyes have been opened today, but even though her eyes have been opened, she still has to go through the necessary procedures.

She asked the Traveler and Paimon to stand in front of a board, and then used a camera to take pictures of them, which were their prison photos.

“Click, click! Click, click!”

……

Meanwhile, on the other side.

"What a pity that he's not wearing prison clothes. I'll have to ask Villette someday... No, would it be better to go directly to Leosley? I'll have to ask Leosley about it someday. If you don't have enough funds, I can provide you with sponsorship."

Zuo Xi held several completely synchronized copies of the pictures in her hand, her face almost bursting with laughter. There were four pictures in total, which were front and side photos of Ying and Paimeng.

The only thing that made Zuo Xi unhappy was how could he wear ordinary clothes! He would arrange for the prison uniforms. If the money was not enough, he would pay for it. If he was afraid that the special treatment would cause dissatisfaction, he could even buy the entire Melo Petersburg.

"If you make me wear something like that, I won't go."

A frivolous and somewhat silent voice sounded from the opposite side. A young man with short purple hair and dressed in plain clothes sat opposite Zuo Xi with an impatient look on his face.

"The Strange One", "Scattered Soldier", "Scaramsey", "The Thunderbolt Country Collapse", "The Secret Lord of the Seven Leaves of Silent Illumination", "The God of Righteousness", "The Dangerous Wanderer"... these are all names he has used before, and he doesn't mind others calling him by these former names.

But now, he prefers to call himself by another name - "sinner".

His journey of atonement with Inazuma has not yet ended. To be more precise, he is still very confused.

He wasn't confused about his own crimes. There was nothing to be confused about. He knew that his crime was unforgivable... He was confused about who to atone for his sins.

There are very few descendants of the Five Thunder Traditions nowadays. He once visited the Kamisato family, but the current head of the family politely rejected his intention to pay something and did not ask him to do anything.

That Princess Bai Lu actually came to him privately. He thought that she wanted him to help with some private work that she couldn't talk about in front of the head of the family. He was just about to take on the responsibility, but she pulled him aside and asked him questions about Zuo Xi.

It's nothing more than "Is Zuo Xi really dead?", "This must be fake, right?", "Can I go to Zhidong to find him?", "Is the announcement issued by Xumi true?" and so on...

The call left him silent. After he told the other party the truth, Zuo Xi had actually risked her own life to save him, the other party also fell silent.

This atonement failed, and instead, each of them was stabbed again.

Then he found Niwa's descendant, Kaedehara Manye, who also fell silent after learning about the crimes he had committed against his ancestor.

Finally, the other party left a sentence "The past is gone with the wind" and left alone.

Since then, Sanbing was lost. He didn't know what to do, so he wandered around Inazuma's land, doing whatever he could, and planned to do this for a hundred years.

Then he received a letter from Zuo Xi...
