Genshin Impact is a big stage, come if you dare

"I was so emotional at the time that I just wanted to make amends with my life, so the miko gave me the responsibility of taking care of Choji," Inaba Hisazo said with both regret and relief, "and then I returned to the city..."

Inaba Kyuzo couldn't continue speaking, so Choji spoke for him.

"Later, when we returned to the city, we learned that his parents had fallen ill because they were worried about him. Mrs. Shizuko was busy taking care of her elders and two children, and she also had to find a way to spend money to post tasks and notices to ask people to find him."

Mrs. Shizuko had worked herself to a pulp, but after seeing Hisazo Inaba, the old man of the Inaba family immediately regained his spirits and his illness began to improve. Mrs. Shizuko, who had been holding on, cried a lot, then fell ill and only recently recovered.

Choji has a strong character and believes that family is the most important thing to him. He completely cannot understand the "morality" of Inaba Hisazo's previous desire to commit suicide to apologize.

Changci feels that nothing is more important than living well and reuniting with his family.

The half-grown child glanced at the tall samurai and taught the child who was being led by the samurai in a condescending manner, "Kenjiro, you must never become a useless adult like your father in the future."

The little boy looked at his eldest brother who brought his father home, and nodded vigorously with trust and admiration. "Yeah!"

The "useless adult" ruffled the child's hair, then invited the group of travelers to his home, wanting to give them a good treat and thank them.

Su waved his hand and said no, he was busy.

"She won't go, they're busy." A lively voice interrupted.

Changci's eyes lit up, "Brother Xiaolu!"

Shikanoin Heizo, who hadn't been seen for a long time, came over to greet everyone, then looked at the girl with a smile: "Long time no see, Su, have you thought of me recently?"

The alarm in Paimon's head started beeping, and he quickly flew between Su and Shikanoin Heizo, "You must be the detective that Su mentioned who is good at solving mysteries, right? Hello, hello."

Heizo Shikanoin shook hands with Paimon with great interest. "Is this the famous God's Mouth in the Traveler Team? Nice to meet you."

Paimon was puzzled: "Mouth of God? What is that?"

"The Eye of God is an external organ of magic power, and the Mouth of God is an external organ of sound." Shikanoin Heizo gestured to Sora and Su, "I heard that he doesn't like to talk much. As for Su, he often says unpleasant things in front of outsiders. As the messenger of the Traveler Team for external communication, you are their Mouth of God."

Paimon was so angry that he lost his mind: "How ugly! Even more ugly than emergency food! I'm not a mouth! I'm emergency food!"

Su smiled quietly, and Kong showed a helpless expression.

"You've pissed me off! I'm not the Mouth of God, nor am I emergency food!" Paimon, who had come to his senses, glared at Shikanoin Heizo in frustration, "How dare you give me such an ugly nickname! I'm going to give you an even uglier nickname!"

"Sure, I'm actually looking forward to it." Shikanoin Heizo said perfunctorily and then turned to Su, "You guys are going to do a mission, right? How about taking me with you? You've experienced my ability to solve puzzles, it's definitely fast and efficient."

"No, no! I don't want to take you with me!" Paimon jumped up and down and firmly objected, "Su, let's go and do the mission!"

Why bring a guy with such an annoying mouth? Is he going to piss her off to death?

Kong also politely declined: "What we are going to do today are some tasks to disperse the ambush, there is nothing to solve puzzles, so I won't bother you."

"Oh? You actually spoke up." Shikanoin Heizo raised an eyebrow, "Although it was to reject me."

Su also refused him, "I won't take you with me." Then he turned and left.

Paimon smugly snorted at Shikanoin Heizo and caught up with the girl.

"Bao Ben is doing well now. He is studying at the Military Medical Department of the Executive Office and is currently responsible for caring for patients from Baying Island!"

Although he suspected that Su had long forgotten this person, Shikanoin Heizo still loudly explained to her the pharmacist's recent situation.

When the backs of the travelers were out of sight, Changci said in a childish voice, "You got dumped, Xiaolu brother."

Sister Miko obviously prefers gentle and tolerant types, such as her companions. Brother Deer is too aggressive!

"What are you talking about, little brat." Shikanoin Heizo patted Choji's head, nodded to Inaba Hisazo, and said goodbye to them, "I have to go back to the magistrate's office too. I have a lot of work to do."

After he too left, Choji looked over to Kenjiro.

"He has a lot of work to do, but he just wants to go out with girls. Kenjiro, don't become an adult who avoids work when you grow up."

"Yeah!" Although he didn't quite understand what was said, the child who admired Nagaci continued to support him as usual.

——*——*——

Paimon was so pissed off by Shikanoin Heizo that he was still complaining about this bad-tempered guy even after he had walked a long way away.

"He's actually a nice guy, and his cooking is pretty good too." Su said something fair, and then said biasedly, "But he's too talkative. If Paimon isn't happy, we won't take him with us!"

Paimon was happy and gave Kong a look that said "low threat, don't worry!"

Although he didn't know what Paimon was trying to reassure him about, Kong... was really relieved.

After going down a few more stairs, a girl dressed very lively waved vigorously to the group of travelers, then ran over.

"Long time no see!" Naganohara Fireworks Shop's poster girl, Yoshimiya, smiled brightly. "To celebrate the lifting of the Eye Hunting Order and the National Lockdown Order, I'm giving out small fireworks for free. How about it? Would you like some?"

Xiao Gong enthusiastically took out a bunch of firework tubes for them to choose from, "That's right! The flare I gave you last time can be used as a firework. That one is also my masterpiece, very beautiful!"

When Xiao Gong talked about his favorite fireworks, his eyes were as fiery and bright as fireworks.

However, before he could chat with the traveler team for a few words, Xiao Gong's face suddenly changed, he stuffed all the firework tubes into Kong's arms, turned around and ran away.

"If I get caught by those guys, they'll nag me about fire prevention again. I'm leaving now! Remember to come and play with me when you have time!"

When the warrior in charge of the city's firefighting passed by the Traveler Group, he quickly glanced at them for their fame, and without saying a word, he ran away after Xiao Gong.

"The Xiao Palace is still so bustling," Paimon said with satisfaction as he looked at the fireworks, "After we finish the mission, let's set off some fireworks to celebrate in the evening."

Such a lively and peaceful daily life is so nostalgic!

Kong and Su looked at each other and nodded in agreement with Paimon's arrangement.

Su: "Now then! Traveler team, let's go!" Let's go do the mission~
