Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

After three days of peace and tranquility, inside Mo Mang Palace.

The main reason why Shao Yunzhi appeared here was to request Mo Mang Palace to send people from Zhuyingting to help search the apartment where he originally lived, to make sure there were no bombs left by the Gabriel Chamber of Commerce.

As I said, leave professional matters to professionals.

Seruo was seen carefully examining the application form submitted by Shao Yunzhi to ensure that all the procedures were correct.

After everything was checked, Serlo smiled warmly and said, "Sir, there is no problem with your application."

"According to normal procedures, relevant matters will be properly resolved within the next three working days."

Then, she paused for a moment and added, "However, during this period of time, please do not enter the interior of the apartment without permission, just in case there are safety hazards such as the explosion traps you are worried about."

Shao Yun responded politely: "Thank you."

After saying that, he nodded politely to Serlo.

Seeing this, Seruo also smiled and nodded slightly, and continued: "Don't be so polite, this is what we should do. I wish you a happy life. If you think my work performance this time is not bad, please give me a five-star praise."

As soon as she finished speaking, she handed an evaluation form in her hand to Shao Yun.

Shao Yun took the evaluation form and quickly scanned the items on it.

Finally, he ticked the five-star option and handed the form back to Serlo, saying, "Okay, no problem."

……

Just as Shao Yun passed by the door of Villette's office, the tightly closed door was suddenly pushed open from the inside.

Then, a figure walked out quickly. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Ye Lan!

As she walked out, she politely said goodbye to Villette in the office, "I have fully felt your sincerity. I hope the friendship between Liyue and Fontaine will last forever."

When Shao Yun saw Ye Lan coming out of Villette's office, he couldn't help but show a hint of surprise on his face, and blurted out: "Ye Lan?"

Ye Lan, who had just closed the door, heard the familiar voice, paused and turned around quickly.

After seeing clearly that the person coming was indeed Shao Yun, a hint of deep meaning flashed in her charming eyes, and then the corners of her mouth slightly raised as she greeted Shao Yun.

"Oh? It's Mr. Shao Yun. It's been quite a while since we parted ways in the Layered Abyss..."

Shao Yun reached out and touched his chin, muttering softly: "Ye Lan? I didn't expect to meet you here. Could it be that the special envoy sent by Liyue this time is..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Ye Lan nodded with certainty, and gently placed his right hand on his chest, and said slowly: "Yes, it is me."

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun couldn't help but take a closer look at Ye Lan, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

He looked Ye Lan up and down, and said with a smile, "I was originally thinking that the special envoy sent by Liyue to Fontaine would be as gentle and quiet as Miss Ganyu, and she would do things in an orderly manner."

"Either he should be as decisive, smart and capable as Keqing; at the very least, he should be as generous and awe-inspiring as Beidou."

When Ye Lan heard that Shao Yun had included Beidou on the list of Liyue's special envoys to visit Fontainebleau, but had forgotten herself, a barely perceptible sense of loss flashed across her face.

She said with a hint of resentment in her tone, "You didn't even consider me at all... I'm really a little disappointed... After all, I explored the Layered Abyss with you."

Upon seeing this, Shao Yun quickly raised his hands and stretched out his index and middle fingers at the same time, scratching the air a few times, and explained with a somewhat strange expression.

"Because you give me the feeling that you will never leave Liyue. You know, a woman who lives in the dark."

Ye Lan heard him describe her like this. She pretended to be sad and sorrowful, sighed softly and said, "Alas... Could it be that in your eyes, I am that kind of dark and obscure woman?"

Shao Yun, however, looked nonchalant, casually crossed his arms over his chest, and responded nonchalantly: "Don't get me wrong, I was only talking about your whereabouts and habits, not your personality."

"To be honest, I'd rather try to figure out what Paimon wants to eat tonight than spend my energy trying to figure out your personality..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Lan could only shake her head helplessly.

Then, she suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Forget it, let's not talk about it. Speaking of which, Ying and Paimeng both came to the Lantern Festival more than two months ago, so why were you nowhere to be seen?"

Seeing that this question was thrown out again, Shao Yun patiently started to explain again.

"Because there's something important I need to take care of. Important enough that I have to take it seriously."

Ye Lan was relieved when she heard Shao Yun say that he was delayed by something and couldn't come to Liyue to celebrate the Lantern Festival. She said thankfully, "Oh, so that's the case. I was worried that something unexpected had happened to you..."

Shao Yun, as usual, had a playful smile on his face and responded jokingly, "Haha, don't worry! Even if Hu Tao sends you away first one day, I will definitely live well!"

When Ye Lan heard this, she rolled her eyes at him unhappily, touched her forehead helplessly, and sighed, "Ah, what are you talking about... But it does fit your usual speaking style."

After Ye Lan took the hand covering her forehead away, her expression became a little unnatural, and she asked abruptly: "Um...if you have free time in the future, can you spare some time to go back to Liyue?"

Shao Yun was very surprised by Ye Lan's sudden invitation, and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Huh? Why do you ask this suddenly? Did something special happen in Liyue?"

Ye Lan's eyes rolled around, and after thinking for a moment, she replied, "Actually, you also know that the situation in Liyue is quite complicated."

"Especially the relationship between Lord Ningguang and the immortal is a little bit delicate. And you are a key figure who can play a role in reconciliation."

"If you can go back and show up and move around more, it will surely help ease the unnecessary conflicts and strange disagreements between us."

When he heard that he was going to calm the situation, Shao Yun quickly declined, saying, "This is really unfortunate! I'm on vacation in Fontaine now... I don't think I can spare the time to help!"

As he spoke, he shook his head slightly, as if he actually felt a little sorry for not being able to help.

Ye Lan couldn't help showing a trace of helplessness when she heard what Shao Yun said. She sighed softly and said, "Well, well, in that case, it seems that this extra task assigned to me by Lord Ningguang has failed..."

Shao Yun originally thought that the matter was over, but he didn't want to hear Ye Lan mention the words "extra task".

"Oh? Extra mission?"

Seeing this, Ye Lan no longer kept the secret and told Shao Yun in detail the extra task that Ningguang had assigned to her.

"Lady Ningguang said that if there is a chance, please come to the Qun Yu Pavilion as a guest. When the time comes, please taste the fine tea from Qiaoying Manor and have a brief chat with her."

Of course, drinking tea and chatting were added by Ye Lan herself. Ningguang just said to call Shao Yun, but she thought that was probably it.

After listening to Ye Lan's story, Shao Yun commented with a bored look on his face: "It's just drinking tea and chatting. It sounds so boring."

Seeing that Shao Yun found drinking tea and chatting boring, Ye Lan could not help but shrugged helplessly and asked, "What else do you want? Do you still expect Lord Ningguang to be as generous as Captain Beidou and accompany you to drink and chat?"

At this time, the system mechanically popped up a task prompt that had not been seen for a long time.

【Hidden Mission】

[You can use the "thing" your uncle gave you to go to Liyue to meet Ningguang. ]

[Please note that this "thing" will leave a scent of the abyss after use, so please use it with caution.]

Shao Yun looked at the hint of this hidden task and murmured helplessly in his heart: "I am going on vacation with Ying, so I probably don't have much time. But, I can't say for sure..."

……

Shao Yun and Ye Lan chatted for a while and then left Mo Mang Palace.

Ye Lan looked around, then turned to look at Shao Yun beside her and asked, "So, do you know where Yan Fei lives now? Mr. Villette told me that Yan Fei seems to be living in a place called Thorn Rose Society..."

Shao Yun nodded slightly and responded: "Oh, Yan Fei lives in the Thorn Rose Society base in Huihe. The Thorn Rose Society is a non-governmental organization."

"If you want to meet Yan Fei, you may need to communicate with the relevant personnel of the Thorn Rose Society first. After all, you are a 'stranger'."

"But, for things like this, I don't think you need me to teach you how to negotiate with others."

When Ye Lan heard that it was the Thorn Rose Society base in Huihe, she nodded while thinking, "Oh, Huihe? I see..."

However, at this moment, Ye Lan's smart eyes suddenly rolled around, and a sly smile appeared on her face.

"In that case, can you accompany me to find Yan Fei?"

When Shao Yun heard that Ye Lan wanted him to accompany her to Huihe to find Yan Fei, he immediately teased, "Why? Do you think you are like a child like Qiqi or Yaoyao, who needs an adult to accompany you when you go out?"

"But, from what I understand, Qiqi can go up the mountain to collect herbs by herself, and Yaoyao can also go out by herself."
