In Genshin Impact, we start to save the Five Yakshas.

Chapter 397 Conversation with Alecino

"I think it would be best if I left."

Feeling the slightly quiet and depressing atmosphere in the house, Jiang Xun thought the situation seemed to be worse than it seemed.

The little cat Qiliangliang seemed to have left a long time ago, so there were only four people left in the house now. Jiang Xunke and Qianzhi were not familiar with each other, and the following situation would inevitably involve many of each other's secrets.

Once he heard the secret, it meant he was implicated. In order to prevent things from getting more complicated, Jiang Xun thought it would be better to run away first.

"Hey, why?"

Ying and Paimeng were puzzled.

"There are some things that I am not suitable for, you know."

Jiang Xun explained, but it seemed that the two did not understand what he meant.

"Really? Why do I feel like you're just trying to get away because you don't want to bother with this?!"

Paimon asked with a skeptical look on his face.

"Paimon, forget it, he might really be in trouble."

At the critical moment, Ying was still very reasonable. She seemed to see Jiang Xun's reluctance. Although she didn't know the reason, forcing others to help was not a good thing, especially when she had no compensation to pay the other party.

"Ying still understands me."

Jiang Xun smiled and patted the other person's shoulder, then took the opportunity to lean over and whisper in his ear: "Although I don't want to cause trouble, after all, I broke my promise first. I'll owe you this favor. Next time you have something to do, just come to me directly."

"By the way, here's this for you. If you run into any trouble you can't solve, crush it and I'll come right over."

Jiang Xun stood up and then took a crystal from Jiang Xun's hand. The texture was crystal clear without a trace of impurities, and it was more gorgeous than any crystal she had ever encountered.

"Hey, what about me? Is there any share for me?"

"No, only this one."

After giving Paimeng a displeased look, Jiang Xun left.

Only the sulky Paimon and the somewhat shocked Ying were left.

Ying put away the crystal in her hand that was still emitting a hint of warmth, touched her earlobe which was a little hot, and it took a few seconds for it to return to normal, but fortunately no one noticed.

She then asked Chizhi what happened. Now she probably knew what had happened, but she just didn't know what to do now to clear up these misunderstandings.

......

After Jiang Xun left, with a slight smile on his face, he was about to go have a Fontaine's special breakfast, but he ran into an unexpected person head-on.

"Hmm? Good morning, Mr. Jiang Xun."

"Good morning, Miss [Servant]."

Jiang Xun was a little surprised to meet the other party here. After all, as a diplomat of Zhidong, he should have his own exclusive restaurant. How could he appear in this small place?

"You look surprised?"

Alechino's tone remained calm, and even though the matter involved her, her emotions remained unchanged.

"Who would have thought that a diplomat from the Kingdom of Winter would show up here to have breakfast?"

"I just happened to pass by while doing some work. I also wanted to taste Fontaine's breakfast. I happened to meet Mr. Jiang here. Why don't we go together?"

"your treat?"

"it is good."

Jiang Xun didn't hesitate when he heard that and walked straight into the store without any intention of being polite.

However, Alechino took a deep look at the guy's back, then retracted his gaze and slowly followed him in.

Since the other party offered to treat him, Jiang Xun had no reason to be polite and ordered many dishes at once. Although Du Lin was not around now, he could easily finish these things by himself.

But unlike Jiang Xun, Alechino just ordered a normal breakfast, nothing special about it.

The other party did not show any dissatisfaction with his behavior of taking advantage of the big customers.

"I thought you would be angry."

While waiting for the meal to be served, Jiang Xun asked jokingly.

"Mr. Jiang seems to underestimate my generosity. The price of a meal is not worth much Mora."

"Besides, Hearth House might cooperate with you in the future, so this can be considered as laying a good foundation for our possible cooperative relationship."

Alechino's answer did not surprise Jiang Xun.

"Cooperation? Let's talk about it later. I don't see what I need from you for now."

The so-called cooperation means that both parties get what they need, but Jiang Xun did not see anything attractive in this executive.

"Haha, let's wait and see."

Alechino did not refute. She believed that language was just a way to show off one's ability. If one really wanted to make the other person change his mind, one had to rely on one's own strength.

If talking could solve problems, there would be no war between demons and gods, no confrontation between humans and demons, and her former friends would not have died...

The dishes were served, and then the two of them didn't say anything, but quietly enjoyed their own meals. Of course, if you ignore the several servings of food placed in front of Jiang Xun, this scene would seem quite normal.

After eating and drinking, Alechino went to pay the bill first, while Jiang Xun stood at the door and did not leave immediately.

"Mr. Jiang, are you waiting for me?"

"You have to digest the food after dinner. Besides, I ate your meal after all. It's not appropriate to just leave like that. I should at least chat with you."

"Okay, let's go."

Hearing this, Alechino did not refuse, but took a step forward and walked forward.

"Since we're just chatting, Mr. Jiang, do you mind if I ask some questions?"

"of course."

"My children once conducted an investigation on you without my knowledge. Although I forbade them to do so, the information they obtained was all irrelevant, and the earliest records were only from a few years ago. Could you explain why?"

Jiang Xun raised his eyebrows after hearing this. Is he trying to dig up his past?

And you said that your children investigated me behind your back, but Jiang Xun didn't believe it. He thought that she definitely condoned it. Otherwise, even if the intelligence network of Hearth House was extremely developed, it would be impossible to operate at full capacity without her consent as a servant.

"I am just an ordinary Liyue resident. At least I only have a sense of belonging to Liyue."

After hearing this answer, Alechino tactfully stopped asking. The other party's answer clearly showed that he did not want to reveal information in this regard. Asking further would be ungrateful, but at least he got some information.

"What does Mr. Jiang think of the Fatui?"

"It is an organization affiliated with the God of Ice. It has been stirring up trouble in various countries under the name of the God of Ice for many years. I just don't know if the God of Winter knows about this."

"Well, I don't deny it."

Alechino nodded. What she did was not a good thing, and she was not good at doing good things. Everything she did was for herself and had nothing to do with others, including the queen.

"One last question, what do you think of Hearth House?"
