Genshin Impact: Mr. Executive, please stop rolling

Chapter 18: Enthronement Ceremony, Second Executive Officer "Traveler"

The consecration ceremony.

Ji Fan thought it was a particularly solemn scene.

But I didn't expect it to be just a simple formality.

In fact, he had already been the twelfth seat as early as the day when the Ice Queen publicly announced that Ji Fan would be the twelfth seat.

This enthronement ceremony is more symbolic and ceremonial.

However, the people of Zhidong have always scoffed at this kind of behavior.

They abolished countless thankless formalities.

But the tradition of the enthronement ceremony has been retained.

It is said that it was the "clown" Piero who insisted that the canonization ceremony was not abolished.

Piero believes that executives rarely communicate with each other and find it difficult to get together.

And this enthronement ceremony is a great party gimmick.

Its existence at least provides a link for executives to connect.

However, the enthronement ceremony was rarely held.

But for Ji Fan, this is a good opportunity.

It’s a great opportunity to get to know all the executives, this opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Perhaps this is why Piero insisted on the canonization ceremony.

Let new members get to know their colleagues.

This will avoid the situation where a fight breaks out outside and you don’t recognize the other party as your family member, which would cause a big mess.

The enthronement ceremony went on as usual.

There was nothing special about it, except that each executive shook his hand and said a few words to him.

According to the order, the first person to come forward and shake hands with him was the eleventh seat "Prince" Tartaglia.

"Hahaha, congratulations, Ji Fan, now I've finally gotten rid of the title of last place!"

“Although not in the way I wanted.”

"I look forward to fighting you in the future!"

Datalia shook hands with Ji Fan enthusiastically. All his thoughts were on the surface, and he was a man of temperament.

Ji Fan responded with a smile:

"Of course, of course. I'm looking forward to it too!"

The second person to come forward was the tenth "servant" Alechino, who was also Ji Fan's sister.

As if she had completed a task, she mechanically stepped forward and shook hands with Ji Fan. After saying "congratulations", she left without looking back, like the wind.

Next up is the ninth seat, the “rich man” Pantalone.

"Ji Fan, I have always been optimistic about you. I was also present during the death trial that day."

Pantalone always had a fake smile at a perfect angle on his face, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

No one knows how much truth and how much falsehood are contained in what he said.

Ji Fan responded with a fake smile:

“Thanks for your support.”

Pantalone patted Ji Fan on the shoulder and chuckled:

"If you have any financial difficulties, you can come to me and I will definitely help you."

"There aren't many things I can't buy in winter..."

Pantalone was not bragging when he said this. As he was in charge of the Northland Bank, he did have the capital to do so.

The value of this promise is quite heavy.

However, Ji Fan frowned slightly.

He didn't understand why Pantalone, who he had only met a few times, showed such kindness to him.

In his subconscious, he always rejects other people's kindness.

Past experience constantly reminds him:

Kindness is the most vicious poison that will make people sink step by step.

That little bit of kindness may very well be well-disguised malice.

Only when people are completely immersed in false kindness will it take off its layers of disguise and reveal its terrifying fangs.

This is also Ji Fan’s way of survival since he was a child.

Pantalone certainly knew what Ji Fan was thinking. He narrowed his eyes and explained:

"Don't worry, the promise I just made is not free help, but my investment."

"invest?"

"Yes, there are many kinds of investment, and helping is one of them. I bet that you will soar to the sky in the future, and you will give me a thousand times the return in the future."

"Haha, I'm not so sure."

"Don't forget that I am a banker. I am very professional when it comes to investment."

"What if..."

"What if? What if you fail halfway? Well, it's not impossible. But in business, how can you make a profit without loss? As long as I see something attractive in you, it's worth my investment. In our business, we must be quick and accurate. Opportunities are like water. If you hesitate for a moment, they will slip through your fingers~"

Pantalone pushed up his glasses, and his eyes reflected an icy light on the lenses.

"If you really fail, it doesn't matter. After all, this investment is just that much for me."

After saying that, Pantalone left without waiting for Ji Fan to reply.

Ji Fan stared at his departing back and fell into deep thought.

At this moment he was not thinking about the money, but another problem.

Does the group of scattered soldiers that is hostile to him include the ninth seat Pantalone?

If so, what does his current behavior represent?

……

After Pantalone, the eighth seat is "Lady" Rosalin.

Rosalind came up to Ji Fan and gently shook his hand, her face full of pride.

"The eighth seat, Rosalyn."

"The twelfth seat, Ji Fan."

After exchanging names, Rosalin retreated straight away, as if saying a word to Ji Fan was a waste of time.

Ji Fan was also happy to have some free time.

But then again...

Ji Fan glanced.

Rosalyn is really big.

cough cough.

After Rosaline stepped down, it was the seventh seat, "Puppet" Sandone.

Ji Fan looked at the beautiful face of the girl in front of him, and couldn't help but compare her with another person in his heart.

The Scorpion of the Red Sand in Naruto...

After a brief greeting, Sandoni sat on the huge puppet and slowly retreated.

This was the first time Ji Fan met her, so there wasn't much to say.

After that, it’s…

Ji Fan fixed his eyes on the approaching young man in the bamboo hat and called out softly:

"Scaramsey, is your hand okay?"

At this moment, Scaramucci, with all his limbs intact, was completely different from when he had just finished the death trial.

At that time, he was tortured badly by the divine cold wind.

Sanbing turned his head away, unwilling to meet Ji Fan's gaze directly, as if he was avoiding it.

He quickly stepped forward and shook hands with Ji Fan, then hurried off the stage without even looking up.

Returning to the original place, Sanbing stared at Ji Fan's figure with deep confusion in his eyes.

More than a week passed and he still hadn't figured it out.

In the death trial, where did I lose?

……

Then Ji Fan shook hands and greeted several executives one by one, memorizing their appearance and characteristics.

Since there was no previous interaction, the process progressed very quickly.

But there was one thing that surprised Ji Fan.

The third "girl" Columbia showed great interest in him and invited him to sing by the river.

Ji Fan declined politely.

He would never go out alone with someone stronger than himself, let alone go to the best place to kill people and destroy the bodies in the middle of winter - the riverside!

This way he will feel insecure.

Columbia was not angry about this. There was always a happy expression on her face. She said nothing and returned to her original place humming a song.

The last person to shake hands with him was the "clown" Piero.

creak.

The thick cowhide gloves touched each other in the air, making a sound.

Feeling the huge force coming from his palm, Ji Fan's heart sank.

As expected of the first executive officer, this power is extraordinary.

In Ji Fan's impression, Piero has always been a tragic character who carries many secrets and has deep hatred.

One person's story is enough to write a revenge novel.

His personality must be the kind of person who never smiles and always speaks with an attitude of "you owe me five million".

But when he actually came into contact with it, Ji Fan found that he was wrong.

On the contrary, he gives people the impression that he is a very easy-going person.

At least, Piero left a very good first impression on Ji Fan.

"Congratulations, Ji Fan, for joining the twelfth seat of executive officers. From now on, we must work together for the winter's tomorrow and fulfill the wishes of Her Majesty the Queen!"

"Here, this is your token, it symbolizes your identity, keep it well."

Ji Fan took the token neither humbly nor arrogantly.

It feels cold to the touch, very light but very tough. I don't know what material it is made of.

There is a big word "愚" (Foolish) engraved on the back, and the word "十二" (Twelve) on the front.

Piero pointed at the people in the hall and said loudly:

"From now on, you will officially become the twelfth seat of the Fatui Executive Officer, the Traveler."

"Do you have anything to say to your colleagues?"

Ji Fan smiled slightly and was about to say something to save the situation, but suddenly he was stunned.

Because the option appeared in front of him again!
