Genshin Impact: Teyvat Travel Guide

After being rescued, Nanyang explained the truth of the incident.

"Anyway, that's what happened."

Sitting on the hospital bed, the still weak Nanyang was able to explain the truth very calmly to the colleagues who came to visit.

Colleagues were filled with resentment: "He is simply crazy about money! This kind of scumbag... is simply not worthy of being a human being! Accusation! He must be imprisoned in Merlot Petersburg, and it is best not to come out for the rest of his life!"

Because the attack on Nanyang was deemed intentional injury, Old White could not escape the charge.

Nan Yang smiled: "Thank you for being angry for me. I will definitely accuse him."

But unexpectedly, on the third day after being rescued, Old White disappeared.

——The kind where the whole person disappears without a trace.

When Nanyang knew about this, it was hard not to have some bad associations.

Because she helped Navilette investigate the missing girl case, she had investigated too many cases, and was naturally sensitive to such phenomena.

"Have you fled to another country in fear of crime?"

A colleague who helped with the inquiry said: "There is no record of entry or exit."

"The last place he was seen was on an ordinary street, and then there was no trace of him again."

Nanyang was silent.

All the cases were right in front of her, but unfortunately something was missing, and she couldn't figure it out.

"No!" she said suddenly, "I want to be discharged from the hospital."

"Hey! Kaya, I know how you feel, but if this matter is urgent now, we may not be able to find clues! You'd better take a good rest! If something happens again..." The colleague said earnestly, "That's not right. Are the gains not worth the losses?!!”

"You said you are miserable enough. In just a few years, you were fatally injured twice and it was all because of that bastard of your father..."

Feeling the tangible concern from his colleagues, Nanyang remained silent for a moment.

Then she said: "Well, you are right, I should take good care of my health and then think about other things."

Panel: [You are aware of the good intentions of your colleagues and do not want to live up to this good intentions. 】

Because of this, Nanyang stayed in the ward for three more days.

Before she had time to investigate, on the seventh day, Villette came to visit her first.

He said: "There was a fire at the original address of White Chamber of Commerce. After the fire was extinguished, only one body was found that was burned beyond recognition. Based on the remaining clothing, it was inferred that he was the undiscovered Vlad. White.”

Nanyang was stunned.

"……What did you say?"

"I know you have doubts." Villette looked at her, "I'm also confused. If he absconds in fear of crime, it means he cherishes his life, but why did he choose to self-immolate?"

Nan Yang also wanted to know.

After a while, an idea flashed in her mind, and she recalled the words revealed on the panel on the day she was stabbed.

"The day Vlad White stabbed me, he made a deal with me." She murmured to herself, "He said he was going to give me to someone as a test subject... It's a pity that he failed to do so, and I was successfully Save."

Was it because the person who was going to do the experiment was afraid that he would be implicated if he told the story, so he took the first step and burned Vlad White to coke?

As long as there is no evidence to prove his death, and he pretends that he cares about his reputation so he would rather die than go to jail... doesn't everything make sense?

The two looked at each other and both thought of this possibility.

"But if he was burned to death..." Villette paused, "this brings a new confusion: who is that person?"

There were too few clues and they couldn't figure it out right away, so they had no choice but to remain silent.

Nanyang sighed.

"Forget it, there is still time after all." She said, "Let's not discuss this issue for now. Do you want to have a cup of afternoon tea with me?"

This is a long-awaited invitation.

Villette smiled lightly and said, "That's fine."

"Aren't you afraid of being suspected of unfair justice?" Nanyang teased him.

Because she was rejected for the first time, she would mention this reason every few days. Unfortunately, Villette didn't seem to be in much embarrassment, which disappointed Nanyang.

The sun was just right at this time, and the delicate golden color shone in the room, making everything brighter.

Nanyang liked this kind of clarity very much, and it made her heart become very bright.

Villette stood in the bright light, and so did she.

They didn't mention the previous kiss because of Nanyang's temporary emotions.

The panel reminded her in a terrible way: [He is not afraid of being doubted about the impartiality of the judiciary because of your external character. 】

The panel flickered for a moment, then reappeared: [And you'd better turn this exterior into an interior, bury the secret in the soil, let it rot, don't let it sprout. 】

The smile on Nanyang's face froze for a moment.

She continued to drink afternoon tea as if nothing had happened, but the hand hanging by her side tightened slightly.

Yes... you have to bury the secret in the soil and let it rot.

As long as the secret disappears, she is just the righteous and impartial Secretary Kaya.

It is now the eighteenth year since the serial disappearance of girls. When Nanyang thinks about this time, she always feels an inexplicable trance.

She expressed her determination to Villette on the thirteenth year after this case occurred, and now it has actually been...five years.

She looked at Villette and suddenly sighed: "Time flies so fast."

The other party didn't respond, "...what?"

Nanyang: "I said, time flies so fast."

"Villette, you know, I had a dream before, and in the dream I was a grass slime." When she said this, she actually laughed, "Isn't it strange? I turned into a grass slime. As for Mu, she can’t speak, and she doesn’t have any living creatures to accompany her. She just jumps around every day to watch the sunrise and sunset, avoid danger, and doesn’t even need to eat.”

"That kind of life is not fast at all, it is even very long, and the days are as long as years. I just feel that there is nothing to do and my heart is empty, so I focus on time...it feels like time is even longer." Nanyang said, " I couldn't stand it anymore, so I jumped into the sea and woke up from my dream."

"Now that I think about it, whether time flies by quickly or not is really an idealistic thing." She laughed at herself, "In my dream, the days were like years, but now it feels like so many years are like the blink of an eye."

Villette was silent for a moment.

He did not comment on the dream, only said: "This dream is very much like your story."

"……what?"

"It's like a fairy tale, but the solution is not beautiful." Navilette said, "Is it because I have read too many fairy tales with tragic endings that I have such a dream?"

Nanyang was stunned.

Just listen to the other person's sincere advice: "You can relax by reading some stories with happy endings."

"I don't want it." She refused quickly, "Stories with happy endings are just fantasies left to humans. I prefer sober reality. And -"

She prolonged her voice and said slowly under the other person's slightly confused gaze: "Don't you think that only stories with tragic endings are impressive?"

Villette thought carefully and found that this was indeed the case.

Rather than the happy story, what emerged more clearly in his mind was the strange death methods of various protagonists in the Nanyang story sharing.

The princess who was poisoned by the apple, the little mermaid that turned into foam, the little girl who froze to death in the snow, and the prince's withered rose...

Immediately afterwards, I heard Nan Yang say: "Look, assuming that our encounter is also a fairy tale, how can we make a deep impression on you?"

"That's impressive enough for now," Navilette said.

"That's not enough." Nanyang looked at his expression that didn't change much, and suddenly said: "Is my death enough for you to remember?"

Villette's heart suddenly jumped.

"Is this a joke?" he asked.

Nanyang sat there without moving for a long time.

She looked at him and laughed suddenly in the dead silence.

"Of course it's a joke... Then Villette, how come you still can't tell the difference between a joke and the truth after so long?" When she said this, she suppressed a smile, but she already had some kind of premonition in her heart.

"Although I really like tragic fairy tales, when I am a person in the story, of course I still hope that the ending will be happy." She said with a "Do you understand or not?" expression on her face, "This is human nature. "

Panel: [You will not let that happen, you will create a happy ending of the fairy tale - this is your belief. 】

--small theater--

There is another reason why I like tragic fairy tales that Nanyang has not mentioned.

——Because Villette will be sad about the ending of the story.

She likes all his emotions except his expressionless face. For Nanyang: Villette's happiness is not obvious, and his love is even more owed. Only when he is sad, the heavy rain in the sky will clearly show his emotions.
