"Well, the opportunity has been given to you. As for whether you are willing to continue on this path, that has nothing to do with me."

This is Yun Qing's advice. The path to the truth is clear, but there are many obstacles on this path that are visible to the naked eye. The concealment of those who know the truth, the obstruction of those in high positions, and the consequences of making this matter public.

"Wait, can you guarantee that this is true? I heard from your colleagues that you prefer..."

Previously, when Charlotte was interviewing "Tartaria", the other party said that his colleague [Puppet] liked to turn people into his own "puppets" and then hide behind the scenes to enjoy the farce.

If this is fake, what if this person is deceiving himself? Will he fail after going through all the difficulties and end up running over to point at Yun Qing's nose and yell "Are you kidding me?"

Isn't this exactly what the other party wants?

"I have no sympathy for petty quarrels. You must know, Miss Charlotte, that you can never achieve the pleasure I want to achieve by yourself unless you publish what I have just said in the Steam Bird."

Judging from Charlotte's personal strength, she is just an ordinary citizen of Fontaine who possesses the Eye of God. Although she is very remarkable in the eyes of ordinary people, it is really difficult for someone like her who is not considered a strong one among the holders of the Eye of God to enter Yun Qing's eyes.

But if you add the Steambird Newspaper behind them, it will be completely different. Although it is not a military or political organization, its audience is spread across the seven countries of Teyvat, and its influence is definitely top-notch.

If the fact that the Geo King was an imposter was exposed, Yun Qing would be very curious to see what kind of trouble would arise in Liyue and how Qixing planned to calm it down.

"But this is not the 'truth'. At least I need to verify it myself."

If even the most core part of a report comes from the "charity" of others, then what is the point of her being a journalist?

At the very least, Charlotte had to verify the matter herself, unravel the complicated facts with her own hands, present them before her eyes, and finally sort out the truth.

"Yes, I am happy to provide you with some 'assistance'. I will give you some 'dirty information' about the little yellow-haired boy."

Yun Qing took out his kettle, took out a stack of documents, and started flipping through them. After a while, he pulled out a few sheets, put them on the table and pushed them to Charlotte.

"these are……"

Charlotte looked at the titles of the documents in her hand. Titles like "Shocked! The hero who saved Mondstadt actually has a history of theft" and "The famous traveler caused trouble in the Immortal Cave and beat up the Thousand Rocks Army" gave her a feeling of a third-rate tabloid in Fontainebleau.

The key is that these contents are well-founded. Not only are there a lot of detailed descriptions, but even the photos posted on them are high-definition.

"It's just some negative information about some travelers. There's a whole bunch of them, but these are the only ones I can give you."

Other reasons why it couldn't be given to Charlotte were that it might be too violent or that it involved other countries' internal affairs.

"So your purpose in giving me these things is...?"

Charlotte flipped through the documents in her hands. Although the titles of these documents were all in the format of inferior clickbait headlines, the contents were all well-founded, the narrative was vivid, the characters were complete, and the logic was rigorous. As long as the titles were changed, they could be published in the Steam Bird News.

"I believe you will have to deal with the little yellow-haired girl. If she doesn't tell you the truth, you can put these things in the newspaper."

In fact, none of this information was false, but Yun Qing used some methods to make everything look as if the little yellow-haired boy had committed a heinous crime.

This method is generally called montage, commonly known as editing, which hides all the good deeds of the little yellow-haired girl and only allows people to see her evil deeds, even if these so-called evil deeds are insignificant or even pieced together.

For example, Yun Qing can summarize what Little Yellow Hair did in Inazuma as follows:

Little Yellow Hair rushed into the ceremony held by General Lei Dian, took away the tribute presented to General Lei Dian, and later joined Haizhi Island, openly defied the one-Inazuma principle, launched a war, and caused a large number of casualties. In the end, thanks to the enthusiastic foreign friend Yun Qing, the two sides reconciled and General Lei Dian moved into a new house.

Is there a lie in this? No, but the little yellow-haired boy went from being a great hero who lifted the Inazuma isolation order to a villain who disturbed the order of Inazuma and provoked war.

Maybe you will ask, will anyone believe such stupid news?

Don't underestimate public opinion, my friend. People don't care whether the little yellow-haired guy is righteous or not, they only care about the loudest voice. People love to criticize others from a moral high ground without understanding the right and wrong.

Fortunately, Yun Qing has never been morally condemned in this way. The first reason is that our Yun Qing behaves uprightly, and the second reason is that Yun Qing has no morals.

"Is this appropriate?"

"How is this inappropriate?"

Charlotte and Yun Qing looked at each other. Charlotte felt that Yun Qing's methods were not clean, while Yun Qing lamented that Charlotte was not worldly-wise.

Although Yun Qing's underhanded tricks were indeed immoral, it was undeniable that such immoral methods were often the most effective.

"Ahem, if you want to look for the little yellow-haired girl, you can go to the construction site of the Qun Yu Pavilion in the suburbs of Lisha to look for her now. If you still want to look for that Dongming Star...Zhujing Dongming Zhenjun, I guess he will appear there in a while."

Yun Qing suddenly changed his words as if he had accidentally let the cat out of the bag, then looked at Charlotte with a "kind" smile on his face, which made her feel a little uneasy.

But she was still quite keen in capturing the information about "Cave Star". After all, the Traveler seemed to have suddenly changed his mind. It seems that it will be very difficult to sort out everything about Liyue this time.

There were too many forces involved, and none of them were something she could afford to offend. If she were an ordinary person, she could use the public opinion of the Steambird Newspaper as a bargaining chip. But none of these people were afraid of the Steambird Newspaper.

Seven Stars? Immortals? Fatui? Only Xiao Huangmao's emergency food would care about those public opinions.

"What are you still doing sitting here? Do you expect me to buy you lunch?"

Yun Qing interrupted Charlotte's thoughts. Indeed, she had stayed here for too long. The more time she wasted, the more confusing the truth would become.

"...Oh! Sorry, goodbye!"

Charlotte got up in a hurry and left the North Country Bank. Now her goal was clear. The launching ceremony of the Qunyu Pavilion was about to be held. I believe that the Traveler and the True Lord of All Realms would appear in Lisha Suburb for this.

Yun Qing smiled. It seemed as if a storm was about to come. She must be stepping onto the Liyue stage soon, right?
