After the group wear, I became the group darling of the big guys

"We must study the composition of this oil paint." Kujo Sara looked at Kawaishi Shinichi and said thoughtfully.

"I'll go collect the paints. Miss Kujo, you and Mr. Shikanoin can tie them all up together, okay?" Qin pursed her lips and turned her head to look at Lisa: "Thank you for your hard work, Lisa."

The elegant and beautiful witch tilted her head slightly and smiled: "It's nothing, Qin."

Shikanoin Heizo shook his arms, took the rope from Kujo Sara and weighed it twice: "I didn't expect that a general of the Tenryo Bugyo would carry so many ropes with him. It's a worldly experience."

Kujo Sara calmly tied up several gray-robed clowns together: "It's just to make it easier to catch criminals at any time."

After dragging Shinichi Kawaishi to a corner and tying him up tightly, Heizo Kanoin clapped his hands in relief. He suddenly turned his head and blinked in the direction of the chemical plant window.

A few miles away in this direction is the Teyvat Office, where Wendy and Lei Dianying are sitting face to face tasting wine.

Because she had just reached adulthood when she came here, Lei Dianying was particularly curious about alcohol. Wendy happened to be drinking alone on the first floor of the office, so she followed her here.

Originally, Funina was also sitting here, but when she saw Lei Yingying was curious about the wine, she wanted to dissuade him: "Ying, aren't you an adult yet? It's best not to try alcohol. Drinking too much will make you feel uncomfortable."

Lei Dianying had a straight face, looking serious, as if he was talking about something of life and death: "I am an adult."

Rigorous and concise, it immediately stopped Funina from speaking.

"Well, relax. I'm here to watch you. Nothing serious will happen." Wendy held the bottle of wine, poured a glass for Lei Dianyian, pushed it in front of her, and winked at Funina: "Or do you want to drink too?"

Funina twitched the corner of her mouth. Her acting card did not show that the former water god had any relationship with wine, so she quickly withdrew.

After everything around her returned to silence, Lei Dianying took a sip from the wine glass. It was not as spicy as she had imagined, but rather had a sweet fruity aroma. In an instant, Lei Dianying fell in love with the taste. She just didn't know why, but she always felt that the taste was very familiar.

She suddenly looked up at Wendy, whose fingers were constantly drawing circles in the air. There was a little wind element on her fingertips. "What did you do?"

Wendy smiled and said meaningfully, "It's just a helping hand. We can't just watch them fall."

Lei Diandian did not think about the ambiguous answer. The owners of the wind element can often listen to the news of the wind, and the wind is spread all over the earth, so they are always the people with the most flexible information.

After the two of them drank three bottles of wine, Lei Dianying, who was addicted to the mellow and sweet taste of the fruit wine, finally couldn't help but cover his head and leaned back slightly.

Her confused brain seemed to have malfunctioned, and several scenes flashed back into her mind.

"Lei Film" slumped under a huge, colorful, and extremely beautiful tree. She leaned against the tree, her body covered in blood. It was unclear whose blood it was, maybe from many people, or maybe it was hers.

She was holding a bottle of fruit wine in her hand and drinking it, tears streaming down her face as if... she hoped to use the alcohol to numb her mind and forget everything.

This scene quickly disappeared into the depths of memory, and the next scene turned into the center of a battlefield full of flames. Lei Dianying was holding a knife in one hand. Except for the holder of the God Card, everyone had fallen down, and their enemy was an unclear black fog that could not be seen through or touched, and it almost drove people crazy.

After that, she came to the tree again. Compared with the first time, the tree was now sparse with branches and leaves falling, and it was about to die. At this time, a big crack appeared under the tree, and inside was a flowing, translucent thick medium, in which their anchor was sleeping.

Through these fragmented memories, Lei Dianying saw her own hands carrying Shi Ning out of the thick medium. She placed Shi Ning next to the big tree, feeling tired and sad.

"This is the last chance. I have brought you out according to the plan... Can you succeed? You can succeed... You..."

"...I want to go home, Ningning, can you save me? Please save us..."

Lei Dianying woke up suddenly, her body bounced subconsciously, the fear had not yet faded from her eyes, the feeling of fear and despair in the dream still lingered in her nerves.

She looked at Wendy in shock, but ran into a sea of ​​gentleness and sadness.

Wendy was looking at her.

Why did Wendy look at her like that?

"What was that just now?" Lei Dianying opened his mouth, a little confused.

What was that just now that made her so sad? Wasn't this the first time she played this card? Why were there so many things that "she" had done?

"Memory is like a sea, a sea with ups and downs and dark clouds covering the sun, but it is by no means calm and gentle."

"Many times, restoring memory only requires a small overlap, a small hint, or a bottle of fruit wine." Wendy shook the bottle and smiled helplessly, "I struggled for a long time about whether to awaken your memory. After all, your awakening point is so different from ours."

"My awakening point is the wind. When I appeared in this world and felt the first gust of wind, I had already recovered some of my memories. Zhongli's awakening point is money, Funina's is the Heart of God, and Nashida's is the World Tree... but she hasn't had the chance to see it yet."

"The God of Wisdom will not let go of any doubt." Lei Dianying took a deep breath and said slowly, "So, why is mine fruit wine?"

Wendy blinked, shook the bottle again, and said in a restrained nostalgic tone: "Perhaps you were also amazed by it when you first drank it?"

"However, you are right." Wendy nodded. "The wisdom of the Goddess of Wisdom should not be underestimated. Although she has not fully recovered her memory, she has noticed many things that are wrong and has made some guesses."

"Why are you so obsessed with whether my memory has been restored? You and I are obviously comrades-in-arms." Lei Dianying asked.

"Why drag her into this nightmare if you can save one more person from suffering?"

"We have repeated the same ending countless times, only to erase our ego and humanity, just to wait for this final battle with the Beacon... It's enough for a few people to know. There's no need to let everyone suffer this pain."

"Then why did you decide to let me restore my memory?" Lei Dianying looked up and stared into Wendy's eyes.

Wendy sighed and said gently and helplessly, "Because you are too important."

Apart from the Grass God, he is the only god who can touch the World Tree, the only god who can pull the signpost out of it...how could he not be important?
