The daily life of a sickly girl in Liyue Port
Chapter 428 Prey and Trap
After hearing what Qianxue said, Ying and Paimon also focused their attention on Villette's office.
Paimon asked in confusion, "Is it not good for us to eavesdrop like this?"
Hearing this, Qianxue glanced at Paimon who was floating beside her, "What do you mean by eavesdropping? We are listening in openly. Look, the door is open, and we are standing here openly. Paimon, you should say that Funina and Violet ignored us."
Qianxue's words left Paimeng silent, not knowing what to say for a moment. Ying, on the other hand, listened carefully to the conversation in the room.
"Uh... Paimon is a little speechless."
"Because what I said is correct. Okay, listen carefully to what these two are saying."
Paimon had no choice but to focus her attention on Violet and Fininna. She was also very curious about their conversation.
"You are not as superficial as you appear, nor are you truly stupid. However, your behavior is extremely inappropriate..."
"Hahaha…hahahaha! So you've always been paying attention to me, Villette? I never knew you were that kind of person."
A slightly stiff laugh sounded, and Qianxue, who was outside the door, pursed her lips slightly when she heard Funina laugh like that. In all the time she had known Funina, she had never heard her laugh like that.
When Villette saw Fininna's reaction, she felt angry and helpless.
"you…"
Villette was speechless. Seeing this, Paimon looked at Qianxue. History always repeats itself in an amazing way, but the situations are completely different!
"Now that you know I'm investigating in secret, you should have a new judgment about me, right?
There is no point in questioning me or doubting me. As the highest judge, you are still my subordinate and you should obey me.
You just need to believe in me as a god. No matter if you can really convince yourself deep down or not, just do it! Anyway...it will definitely be fine.
…That’s all I have to say. There’s no need for us to discuss this matter any further. Ah, it’s almost time for the opera performance. Goodbye.”
Furninna saw me in the mirror in Liyue, and since then her belief has become stronger. She just needs to play the role of the Water God well, and then... everything will be over.
After saying that, Villette could only sigh deeply, while Finina ran out the door, and even Qianxue and the others didn't notice her.
"Ying, you guys are looking for Villette, I'm going to go see how Funina is doing."
Under the gazes of Ying and Paimon, Qianxue chased after Funina. Funina’s condition was not right right now, so it would be better for her to stay with her.
She said that the performance at the opera house was about to start, but in fact, Funina just ran out of Momang Palace and sat on a chair in the backyard garden, looking like she was in a bad mood.
The top hat was placed beside him, and his ahoge drooped powerlessly. Qianxue, who was chasing after him, saw the scene and found it hilarious. She had just forced herself to smile, but it was all exposed when no one was around.
Just as Funina was lost in thought, a voice came to her ears, "Funina."
When she raised her eyes, she saw Qianxue walking towards her. Funina's originally dim eyes brightened slightly, and it was obvious that she was happy about Qianxue's arrival.
"Qianxue..."
"What's wrong? Weren't you quite happy in Villette's office just now?"
Qianxue sat down next to Funina. Fontaine was surrounded by sea water. The wind brought the scent of water, blowing her hair slightly, making her feel refreshed.
"That's impossible..."
"It seems that Fu Fu knew I was outside the door. She ignored me when she ran out just now. It's really sad."
While speaking, Qianxue pinched Funina's cheek a little angrily, with a little conscience, knowing that she was in poor health and ran very slowly.
"Humph, I knew Qianxue would come after me. This is the trust between us."
Funina did not resist Qianxue's actions, but just snorted. No matter what she said, she had her reasons.
“… I guess Fufu can tell.”
After the words fell, the atmosphere between the two became silent again.
"Qianxue, did the me in the mirror tell you anything?"
After a moment, Funina looked at Qianxue, wanting to know whether the me in the mirror had told Qianxue more news.
"Fukaros, she told me a lot, but I can't tell you. Funina just needs to believe that what you are doing now is meaningful and can save the people of Fontaine."
After hearing Qianxue's words, Funina felt much better, and Fucaros looked relieved, but when she thought of the trial that was about to take place, she showed pain in her eyes.
"Thank you, Qianxue. Please sit here with me for a while. I want to visit Baisong Town when I have time."
After hearing what Funina said and thinking about the attitude of the residents of Baisong Town towards Funina, Qianxue was silent for a moment and finally agreed, "...Okay, I'll go with Funina then."
"Ah."
After Ying and Navilette discussed it, they prepared to work out a plan with many partners to form an action plan that would allow Funina to speak all the words.
At dusk, the headquarters of the Rose Thorn Society in Baisong Town.
Ying, Paimon, Navelette, Navia, Linnet, Linny, Femini and Clorinde were all gathered here.
A disaster had just occurred here, so it was perfect as a temporary base.
All they need to prepare is a trap, and the prey is Funina, which should be effective but not too harmful to the prey, or even soft.
Judging a god who sits on a high throne is the purpose of their gathering here.
All they needed was the secret hidden by Fontaine. It was too disrespectful to pry into the secrets of God, but in order to prevent Fontaine from sinking into the water as predicted by the prophecy, they had to take the risk.
There are no hunters and prey, but there are "traps".
A "trap" is needed to lure prey into the game.
After discussing the plan, Linnie suddenly spoke up.
"What I want to know is, does Qianxue know about our plan?"
Speaking of Qianxue, the atmosphere fell silent for a moment, and it was Villette who spoke first: "She doesn't know. If Qianxue knew... it would hinder the plan, and then our plan would be difficult to carry out."
Hearing what Villette said, Linnie touched his chin, while Ying and Navia looked at each other. Qianxue was indeed in trouble.
After all, Qianxue and Funina have a good relationship. What they want to do is to force Funina into a desperate situation so that she will have to tell the secret in her heart.
But based on their understanding of Qianxue, if she knew their intentions clearly, Qianxue would choose not to participate, nor to stop them.
"That is to say, we did it without telling Qianxue. What we did was not a good thing for Funina. Judge God, Qianxue and Funina have a very good relationship.
Moreover, we are still hiding this from her. I am still a little worried that Qianxue will blame us for hiding it from her. We all know what kind of person Qianxue is. If she knows her clearly, she may not stop us. "
Hearing this, Villette pondered for a moment and then said: "...After the matter is settled, I will go to Qianxue to explain it clearly."
"Okay, so be it."
In response to this, Lin Ni chose not to say anything. Anyway, he felt that it was okay to tell Qianxue. In Lin Ni's impression, Qianxue was not a willful person.
Linnie looked at Villette. This Supreme Judge still didn't understand humans well enough.
"I think what Linni said is right. Even if Qianxue knows, it should be okay."
"What the traveler and Linny said make sense, but since we are trying to capture prey, any accident in the process may cause the prey to escape. In the end, it will only make the prey more vigilant, and it will be difficult to take action again." Clorinde said at this time.
If they were going to do it, they had to do it perfectly. If there were mistakes in the middle, causing their plan to fail, the entire Fontaine would suffer in the end.
"Well, since Lord Villette and Clorinde have said so, let's keep it a secret from Qianxue for now. No, we can't say we'll keep it a secret from Qianxue. If Qianxue doesn't ask, we won't tell her."
Navia's words made Ying's mouth twitch. Good guy, when Qianxue comes to ask, just say it directly, you didn't ask at that time, what a gangster way of handling it.
The quietest people in the whole place were Linnet and Femini. Femini, who was socially anxious, just needed to listen to the plan carefully.
Linnett was drinking coffee the whole time, hiding it from Qianxue. There was no emotion on Linnett's face, but her mind was very active, because she was a fan of Qianxue's books.
In the end, they did as Navia said and each of them prepared for their own endeavors after the breakup.
At this time, in the Opicolai Opera House, after Funina finished her performance, a small-scale riot broke out, which was what Zhuyingting believed.
The truth is, when Funina finished her performance and took an intermission, other audience members suddenly attacked her and loudly accused her of inaction on the predicted crisis.
Before Funina could respond, several more people began to accuse Funina emotionally. Later, more and more people responded, and a condemnation against Funina broke out in the opera house.
In the end, no one knew where Funina ran off to, and the people in the Shadow Chaser Court were busy maintaining order and didn't know where Funina had gone.
The predicted crisis that has been weighing on people's heads and making them worried has finally found an opportunity to vent today.
People have always taken it for granted that they rely on gods, and when people lose their sense of security, the first person they blame is always gods.
Just like people often say, shouldn’t God be omnipotent?
The runaway Funina was enjoying the breeze at the beach. Qianxue's mood of accompanying her during the day now turned into self-blame and powerlessness again, and her sighs were blown away by the sea breeze.
Time passed quickly and it was the next day. Nothing happened that night. What happened in the Opikle Opera House yesterday was also reported. Qianxue learned about it and went to Funina's room to find her.
Fortunately, Funina was found, and Qianxue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Qianxue..."
...Looking at the depressed Funina Qianxue, she sighed. It was the right decision for her to come to Fontaine this time. If it weren't for her, Funina would have been alone and suffered.
"I'm here. Aren't we going to Baisong Town? Let's go."
Qianxue walked into Funina's room, and when Funina heard Qianxue say this, she remembered the unconscious Kurumi.
"Has Kurumi not woken up yet?"
Hearing this, Qianxue sighed. She had sighed more times in the past few days in Fontaine than in a year in Liyue.
"She hasn't woken up yet, but Sigwen said it's normal now. Now we just have to wait for Kurumi to wake up."
"Well... let's go. We'll probably have to hide from the residents of Baisong Town when we get there."
The town of Baisong has the most complaints about Funina now. After all, Baisong Town suffered the most casualties in this disaster. Although it also happened in other areas of Fontaine, they were located at high altitudes and there were no casualties.
"It's okay. I used to hide when I was playing games."
Although Funina didn't understand the game that Qianxue was talking about, she was still very happy that Qianxue could accompany her.
After a simple breakfast, the two set off for Baisong Town. Fortunately, they did not meet the group of people at the Opikley Opera House yesterday. They boarded the track patrol boat and headed towards Baisong Town.
On the way there, Funina lay beside the patrol boat and looked at Fontaine now, not knowing what she was thinking. Qianxue sat quietly beside Funina, just hoping that the matter of Fontaine would be over quickly so that she could return to her normal life.
After arriving at Baisong Town, Qianxue walked in front. Perhaps because the disaster had passed, there were not many people here. The once bustling Baisong Town was now dilapidated and desolate.
Funina stood by the river with her head down, looking very lost. Qianxue chose to leave her alone and wandered around. After being washed by the sea water, many facilities were damaged to a certain extent.
Just as Qianxue was looking for the huge fish, she heard footsteps coming from not far away.
"Hurry, someone saw Funina and Qianxue coming here, we can't let her get away this time!"
Hearing that they were looking for Funina, Qianxue hurried back and took Funina away, but just as they left and turned a corner, they heard a familiar voice.
"Hey, Chiyuki! Funina! Over here!"
Qianxue looked and saw that it was Paimeng who was greeting them. Qianxue didn't think much and ran over with Funina. They came to the blind spot and successfully got rid of the group of people chasing Funina.
"Ying? And Paimon?"
Qianxue was a little surprised to see the people coming. She didn't expect to meet them here.
"Hey, it's us."
Qianxue asked curiously, "Why are you here?"
"Of course we're here to find you, Qianxue. Navia said she had something urgent to tell you, Qianxue. We heard that you were in Baisong Town, so we came to find you."
Qianxue had no doubts about Paimon's statement that Navia was looking for her, but she was a little confused, "Navia? What's the urgent matter that she wants to talk to me about?"
Paimeng spread his hands in response, "Oh, who knows, what are Qianxue and Funina doing here?"
"Of course I'm here to accompany Funina."
Hearing this, Paimon chuckled and stretched out his hand to push Qianxue away, "Hehe, let's accompany Funina. Qianxue, go back and see what urgent matter Navia is looking for you for?"
Qianxue only remembered that Paimon in front of her felt strange and always wanted her to leave. Could it be that there was really something urgent with Navia?
"This... but..."
"It's okay, Chiyuki, you go. It's the same if the Traveler and Paimon accompany me."
Seeing that Funina said this, Qianxue could only sigh and leave.
