At dusk, after a busy day, Seraphina finally returned home. She hummed a tuneless song and walked briskly. If she were in a comic book in another world, there would be small flowers floating around her.

"Seraphina?" Aurelie, who was sitting by the window, thought she had recognized the wrong person when she saw her new shy little neighbor so happy.

"Good evening, Sister Aurelie." Seraphina was startled when she heard someone calling her name. She looked around before she found Aurelie who was calling her through the window.

People with social phobia don't live in fear every day.

A familiar environment can make people with social anxiety feel at ease, and they can also chat with familiar people.

Seraphina's disguised persona was someone who didn't like to communicate with others, but was not very wary. In a few days, she told Aurelie all the basic information about her persona, except for her own dark history.

Aurelie is indeed a good person in the universal sense. Her troupe has taken in children with terminal diseases, children of murderers, and frustrated young people...

Her troupe is just a makeshift group, and they have to work to make a living. But she does use the stage and opera to support a family for her brothers and sisters. Such a gentle and delicate elder sister is very good at comforting "socially anxious" people like Seraphina.

Aurelie opened the window of her house: "You look very happy today, did anything good happen?"

Seraphina stood on tiptoe and clung to the window sill of Aurelie's house: "I...I found a job!"

Serafina has been going out early and coming back late for job interviews these days. She was rejected by many positions because of her lack of communication skills. Aurelie comforted her yesterday, but she didn't expect that she would find a job today.

Aurelie was genuinely happy for Seraphina: "That's great, congratulations."

Aurelie was tactful enough not to ask Seraphina about her job, but Seraphina herself couldn't help talking.

Her blushing face had a dreamy expression on it. "I've been looking for a job for several days and finally got a job as a hydrology researcher at the Fontaine Academy of Sciences! I'm so happy when I think that I only need to work with the seawater clockwork mechanism and don't have to face anyone."

Aurelie looked at Serafina in surprise. "I didn't expect you to be good at hydrological research. You're really good! This job pays really well!"

In the continent of Teyvat, where gods can modify the landforms and water systems, hydrology is a very marginal subject, not very versatile, and not many people study it. The Fontaine Academy of Sciences has trained a group of hydrology talents, but it is still not enough.

The Ministry of Education also has a research direction in hydrology. Because hydrology is too niche and is an interdisciplinary subject with ecology, it was eventually classified as a life theory school.

The then queen of the scroll, Seraphina, held the idea of ​​"since I'm here, I might as well do it" and took the time to systematically learn hydrology while studying in the Life Theory School.

Just in use now.

Seraphina held her face in her hands and imagined the future happily: "Ah, my current goal is to save a lot of money and then spend the rest of my life in the mountains and forests."

How can you spend the rest of your life at such a young age? Aurelie didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she didn't say anything to persuade the little social phobia.

"There will be another trial at the Opéracle Opera House next week. You just came to Fontaine. Do you want to go and see it?"

"Judgment..."

The water goddess Funina would be present to watch every trial in Fontaine.

The water god of Fontaine is different from the gods of other countries.

If Seraphina were to describe it, the water god is both seen and not seen by the people.

The Wind God of Mondstadt does not appear in front of people, but even the dogs of Mondstadt remember the guidance of the Wind God's freedom. The Rock King of Liyue will send down an oracle every year. Inazuma's Thunder General lives alone in the Pure Land, and the puppet general she made is also handling state affairs. Even the little auspicious grass king of Xumi lives in the Pure Good Palace and occasionally appears in the Church Order Court and Xumi City.

Funina was different. She frequently appeared before the people, treated the trial as an opera, and spent every day in the opera house. If you ask the people of Fontaine what guidance the water god gave them, no one can tell.

They couldn't say that the water god's guidance was not to name domestic animals Funina.

What the people saw was an individual named "Funina" rather than a national leader named "God of Water".

The supreme judge, Navilette, the Water Dragon King, handles state affairs.

This power structure always gives people the feeling that Funina first occupies the position of water god, and then passes the throne to the Water Dragon King when the time comes.

"There are too many people there. I don't want to go." Seraphina shook her head.

The Water God's position was unclear, and so was the position of the Water Dragon King, who was close to him. She, a creature of the abyss, ran in front of them without knowing anything, wasn't that just walking into a trap?

With the power of the virtual world, Seraphina was confident that the second generation water god and the five hundred year old water dragon king were no match for her in a one-on-one fight. But it was hard to say if two against one.

After all, Seraphina had not made an accurate assessment of their fighting capabilities, and no one knew whether they had any unknown skills.

"It's getting late, you should go back and eat."

"Then I'll be leaving first. Goodbye, Sister Aurelie."

Serafina went home and made herself some vegetarian dishes. Fontaine Academy of Sciences provides working meals. Someone complained in the Steambird Newspaper that Fontaine's working meals are mainly fried meat, eggs and seafood, which are not healthy at all.

No wonder there are so many fat people in Fontaine.

The cafeteria at the Institute of Religious Affairs is still the best. The menu is drawn up by scholars of the School of Life Theory and is nutritionally balanced and delicious.

The Academy of Sciences distributes research equipment, which includes instruments and hydrological records as well as diving equipment and other supplies.

This position is a three-shift job. Seraphina had just arrived and was assigned to the night shift, which was just convenient for her to do some small things.

After making the record, Seraphina put on diving equipment and dived into the water.

Of course she can breathe freely underwater, but she has to pretend to be without the Eye of God to fish.

First, the character of this socially anxious person who has just arrived at Fontaine and goes out late and comes back late is established. Then Seraphina will use the excuse of writing novels to earn pocket money to report the missing girl's case.

With so many hooks put down, there is no need to worry about the fish not biting.

Seraphina carefully inspected the sand on the bottom of Fontaine Sea, destroyed several mechanisms in the sea and took away many parts of the mechanisms.

Although we don't know why the mastermind behind the scenes was able to get the water of the original fetal sea, the fact that he was able to get it means that the water of the original fetal sea exists on the surface or on the seabed.

What's the point of just recording by the water? Seraphina wants to use these parts to make a small relic snake and drill into the seabed to see if she can find any traces.

It is a bit troublesome to find a needle in a haystack, but isn't this two-thread parallel?

There was no one living near the hydrological research site, and Seraphina worked hard on the iron for several days without attracting anyone's attention.

A small relic snake that doesn't look like Kanriya technology at all and is powered purely by wild energy... The small relic snake burrowed into the seabed.

At this time, Serafina didn't know that she had created a Fontaine version that smashed the shield of Zhongli in the player's hand with one punch, and was still torturing the player's local legend on the 12th floor of the Abyss. She was just replenishing the energy of the Ruins Snake from time to time.
